Chapter 172: Arrival



"It was a disaster, Frist an S-ranked dungeon outbreak then some assassination attacked the mansion and after that, Tony Stark a third-year student of the hero course turned himself Fallen human and attacked the mansion!.. Hey, are you listening?"

"Huh? Ah! Yes, I-Im listening."

Lillian said and glanced at Yato who was seen to be dozing off into sleep. A tic mark appeared on Lillian's forehead at Yato's attitude, but she could do nothing to hold her anger back after all if not for him many citizens, Heros and Hunter would be dead by now.

At the moment both Lillian and Yato are inside one of the rooms, Lillian exhausted herself yesterday as she fought against many A+ rank monsters.

Yato on the other doesn't seem to be exhausted but he needs some sleep, For the last 48 hours Yato has closed two dungeon outbreaks and he has been busy since so that's why he didn't receive any sleep at all.

-Ring! -Ring! -Ring!

Just as Lillian was about to say something to Yato, her phone suddenly rang.

Frowning she took it out and answered the call.

Listening to the call, her posture instantly straightened. Nodding her head multiple times she politely said

"Yes, yes, yes...I will be there immediately"

-Click!

Sigh

Lillian cut the phone and let out a long sigh, seeing Lilian expression Yato raised one of his eyebrows and said

"What happened? Who was on the phone?"

Lillian turned her head toward Yato as she heard his question. "They come here to check things up."

Yato frowned at that, and said "Do you mean they come, and now?"

"Yes".

A serious expression settled on Yato's face.

"Do you want to come with me to pick them up?"

"Nahh! Why would someone like me go and pick those basterds, No, you can go and welcome them while I'll wait here." Yato said to Lillian.

"Fine, you can wait here that."

Saying that Lillian quickly got up and rushed towards the entrance of the mansion.

"Why out of all times did they have to come now..."

Officials from the world government had arrived...

-Clank

Closing the door behind her, Yato was left alone in that room.

Yato who was now alone took out his phone and started to play a video.

The video his watching is CCTV footage he received from a mansion camera and in the footage image of Lucas fighting against the blond could be seen.

Taking the hint, looking around her, Lillian noticed that the atmosphere around them was tense.

Almost suffocating.

This was partly due to how enormous their presence was. Although they weren't consciously releasing it, it was still felt by everyone around them.

"This way"

Without skipping a beat, she gestured for them to follow her.

"Alrighty"

Happily smiling, Elise and Jack followed Lillian.

As they entered the mansion, the air seemed to carry a weight of formality. The footsteps echoed through the hallway, each one deliberate and purposeful.

Lillian led the way, navigating the grand corridors with practised ease. Elise and Jack, though unfamiliar with the mansion, matched her pace seamlessly.

Elise, ever the talkative one, broke the silence. "So, Lillian, what's the situation here?"

Lillian hesitated for a moment before responding. "It's a complicated situation. As you know we had an S-ranked dungeon outbreak, an assassination attempt, and a third-year student turned Fallen Human attacking the mansion."

Elise raised an eyebrow, her expression shifting from casual to attentive. "That's quite a series of events. Fallen Human? Do you have any details on that?"

Lillian nodded. "His name is Tony Stark. He's a third-year student from Nova Academy, and for some reason, he turned himself into a Fallen Human during the attack."

Elise and Jack exchanged glances, a silent communication passing between them. The seriousness of the situation became more apparent.

"Where is he now?" Jack's voice was steady, devoid of any hint of emotion.

"He is dead," Lillian replied, leading them towards a conference room.

Entering the conference room, Lillian gestured for them to take a seat. The atmosphere grew more sombre as they settled around the table.

"I'll give you a detailed report of the events," Lillian began, recounting the chaos that unfolded in the mansion. The official from the World Government listened attentively, their expressions growing graver with each revelation.

As Lillian spoke, Elise's gaze occasionally shifted towards the window, lost in thought. Jack, on the other hand, maintained a stoic exterior, absorbing the information with a sharp focus.

Once the recounting was complete, a heavy silence hung in the room. The implications of the incident weighed on everyone present.

"We need to investigate this matter further," Jack finally spoke, his tone unwavering. "The involvement of a Fallen Human raises concerns beyond the scope of a typical incident."

Elise nodded in agreement. "I'll coordinate with the World Government's investigation team"

Lillian nodded, acknowledging the gravity of the situation. "We appreciate your assistance."

Jack turned and towered Lilian and said, "Now we want to meet one student of yours."

Lillian raised her eyebrow at the sudden interest of Jack.

"Which student do you want to meet?"

Jack Glance at Elise, who nodded her head in return at Jack.

"We want to meet a Student named, Adrian Blackthorn."
