“Chapter 56: Friends to the Rescue”

“Takaya was kidnapped”

About an hour after the incident, Dike and Roar, who were worried about the two idiots, went to check on them just to find Meirir collapsed on the ground. They immediately told Letty to send the message to Ever and Akane.

Akane couldn’t believe it.

Overall, Bay Road is a safe city. No magical beasts roaming, lots of people walking around.

Besides, Takaya is always being escorted by either Letty or Mike.

Apparently, he was attacked while walking out with Meirir. How could this happen?

Akane grabbed her best katana, which she received from her family long ago, and headed towards Ever.

– Grandmaster, we have trouble. The Succubus says Takaya-

– I know. He was attacked.

Contrary to Akane, who was ready to jump into action, Ever was unusually serene.

She was staring at a talisman that looked just like Takaya’s.

– I noticed his vital signs were getting weaker. He’s pretty far away from Bay Road, and I doubt he walked all the way just because he felt like it.

The talisman Ever gave Takaya was not just for styling purposes.

It was a magic tool that could sense Takaya’s vital signs.

Takaya doesn’t have the skills to feel the talisman’s effect, so he probably still thinks it’s just a good luck charm

But in reality, it’s a talisman to protect him.

Ever will always rush to help one of his apprentices no matter what.

– How’s the situation?

– Mike and Meirir are looking for him, but the guy seems to have fled pretty far away from Bay Road.

– Akane, send the grosbeak. Tell them the exact position. Those people need Takaya, so they won’t kill him, but they’re torturing him.

Ever has already pinpointed their objective and their whereabouts.

She also came to the realization that the culprits must be Takaya’s previous companions.

They abandoned him and then realized how useful he could be.

It’s been years… No, decades, since there was a Level IX creator. Everyone would be dying to exploit him if they knew.

Whether it’s a powerful nation, the demon king, or a party of adventurers, anyone would want Takaya on their side.

Takaya himself doesn’t seem very aware of this.

Blacksmithing, mixing, cooking, alchemy, processing of ingredients and materials… He’s capable of all that and even more.

– Akane, bring “that” from the “storage room”. It’s time for us to jump in.

– Eh?

Akane was shocked at Ever’s words.

– …Yes, Grandmaster.

Akane immediately left to look for “that”.

As her older disciple, she knows how to get a hint on Ever’s attitudes.

– Well then.

Ever held the talisman in her hand and stripped naked.

A body so beautiful no one would believe she has lived for so long.

Red letters started appearing from her body.

– It’s been a long time since I got serious.

Ever knew she was being too impulsive. These are Takaya’s former teammates, so they’re young and ignorant.

But to her, they made a terrible mistake.

They kidnapped her favorite kid, and now they’re even torturing him.

Ever could not let this go with just a slap on the wrist.

She would harshly punish anyone who dare hurt her precious new family.

“I’ll crush their skulls”.

The Sage of The Forest was determined.

– Time to teach these brats a lesson.

Ever’s eyes were cold. Her temper was rising by the second.
