Chapter 35: They are fine... Right?

"Due to some reason, the monsters near the border suddenly attacked some small cities and a lot of people died. They also destroyed some buildings.. also Nyan City was among the cities that got attacked."

"I remember you are from.."

Kyle's mind went blank for a while, he shuddered at the thought of anything happening to his family. Nine was speaking but right now Kyle wasn't in the condition to hear what he was saying.

Seeing Kyle making a dark expression like he could kill anyone, Nine was literally scared. Still, he was worried and was going to say something but before he could Kyle panicked and immediately left the classroom.

Kyle didn't have any communication device which he could use to contact his family. The only thing he wanted to do was to leave the Academy immediately to see his family.

Nine looked at Kyle's fading image, it was almost time for Professor Aliza to enter the classroom. He cursed but still followed behind Kyle.

At first Nine wanted to get close to Kyle because he thought of him as someone strong, but now after spending a whole month together, he was seriously worried about Kyle.

After running out of the classroom Kyle didn't know what to do, as leaving the Academy without permission wasn't allowed. With sweaty palms and a blank expression, he was thinking about what to do when Nine grabbed his shoulder to calm him down.

"Everything will be fine, Let's take a mission and go together."

Kyle glanced at Nine and after hearing his words he started to calm down. He clenched his fists and nodded, now was not the time to be impulsive.

Both of them hurriedly walked toward the Mission Hall and without even glancing at the surroundings, Kyle walked toward the mission board and picked up a random mission on herb collecting.

Nine also followed suit, both of them handed the mission page they selected to the Young man sitting behind the reception.

The young man took the pages and glanced at Kyle with narrowed eyes, finding him somewhat familiar.

'It's the trash I saw last month.'

The disdain in the young man's eyes was visible, he also glanced at Nine who was wearing an awkward smile. Without giving them a second glance he registered their names before speaking sarcastically.

"These missions of 'Herb collecting' were posted just yesterday, You have two weeks to complete them and return with the items."

Kyle wasn't bothered nor did he care about the way the young man was speaking, after getting the confirmation of the mission he hurriedly walked out of the hall with Nine.

Soon both of them left the Academy, heading straight toward the only teleportation array present outside the Academy. n--0VeLBIn

The streets in front of the Academy were filled with different shops, some were selling low-rank skill cores while some were Arts. A few shops were also selling clothes and some other daily necessities.

Looking through the storage ring Kyle took out some mana stones his Second brother left inside, he was quite busy in the Academy and there was never a time he needed to use mana stones. But After looking through the amount it was only enough for a single person to travel.

On the other hand, after seeing Kyle taking out some mana stones and wearing a worried expression, Nine sighed.

"I can pay for myself."

Kyle was relieved and didn't ask about anything else. After waiting for their turn they used the teleportation array to directly head toward the Capital City.

Usually, teleportation arrays weren't able to teleport people to such long distances but due to the influence of the Royal Academy, it wasn't hard to acquire some advanced materials for the teleportation arrays.

After arriving at the Capital City Kyle was feeling edgy due to the after effects of the Teleportation array, due to that it took them an hour to find the teleportation array heading straight toward Nyan City.

But because there was a huge crowd of people heading toward Nyan City it took a few more hours before it was their turn.

The more time passed the more anxious Kyle was feeling. His worries worsened when they arrived at Nyan City because the only things awaiting their arrival were broken buildings.

When he left, the small city was bustling with all kinds of people busy in their daily lives.

But now the sky was filled with grey clouds and the atmosphere around the city was gloomy. Hundreds of people were running here and there trying to find help or trying to save someone else.

There was no alive monster in sight as different guards holding blood-red weapons were roaming around the city.

But it seems the reinforcement from the Capital City arrived a little late as quite a lot of dead bodies were lying around.

Kyle gazed at his surroundings, living inside a world filled with cruel people he had seen dead bodies before, but it was the first time in his life he felt so angry. Clenching his fist with anger he walked toward the way his house was.

His feet felt heavy and his heart trembled with the mere thought of seeing his house in a similar condition.

On the other hand, Nine quietly followed behind without saying much. After seeing the condition of the city, he just hoped for everything to be fine.

After walking quietly for around thirty minutes, they arrived in front of one of the largest buildings present in the city.

The condition around the house was better than every other place they saw on their way.

Kyle saw a familiar tired face standing in front of the gates, talking with some servants. After seeing the middle-aged man Kyle finally sighed in relief before hurriedly running toward the man.

"Father?"

Baron Ohan turned around hearing a familiar voice calling him from behind.

His clothes were wrinkled and filled with blood. Seeing Kyle running toward him the Baron's tired face showed happiness for a moment.

Kyle didn't care about the heavy stench of blood coming from the old man, with a relieved expression he hugged his father tightly.

After a few minutes, Kyle finally let go of his father and questioned in a worried tone.

"Where are Elder brother and Second brother?"

Baron Ohan didn't say anything and wore a sad expression, seeing his father's slightly wet eyes Kyle's voice trembled.

"They are fine... Right.?"
