Chapter 260: I Know That He's Still Alive!

As Kraftvoll commanded them to, Ouryuu flew as fast as he can toward the direction of the Verrater Academy. Both Ouryuu and Angela were both brokenhearted as they became farther and farther away from their master.

Even with all the heaviness on their hearts, Ouryuu continued on his way toward Verrater Academy as Angela was absorbing the light seishin essences that were stored inside the seishin beast core of the Virtue.

An after the darkness consumed the sky, Ouryuu managed to reach the accommodation building of the 210th class. Although he was very exhausted from the long trip, he did what exactly Kraftvoll told him to do. 

As Ouryuu was descending from the sky, he and Angela saw Belle who was just talking with Azari happily. Belle felt their presence so she thought that Kraftvoll finally arrived from his solo journey.

"You arrived pretty earlier than what you've said, Love. How's your trip?" said Belle with a wonderful smile on her face.

After Kraftvoll realized his feelings for Belle, he confessed his feelings to her when he got a chance. Without her knowing it, she realized that she also had the same feeling as him so she answered Kraftvoll's confession positively.

At that moment, the two of them became a couple. Due to their great stature in Verrater Academy, the two of them became known as the Empyrean Couple. While Kraftvoll was given the title of Empyrean Monarch, Belle was given the title of Empyrean Empress to match Kraftvoll's title.

"What did happen to the two of you? And where is Kraftvoll!?" Belle worriedly asked Ouryuu and Angela even though they could not respond to her with words.

With all the bitterness in his expression, Ouryuu handed over the letter that Kraftvoll had written for her and everybody.

As she was reading the content of the letter, Belle's eyes were suddenly flooded with tears. 

"No! No! No! This is not true! There's no way in hell that this is true! Like I refused to throw my hope that my father is still alive, I would never believe that you are dead, Love!" 

Princess Kyomi and the other girls, who was just walking toward the seishin beast shelter made for the seventh grade, noticed Ouryuu and Angela's condition, and Belle's cry.

"What happened to you, Belle!? Why are Ouyuu and Angela is back from the Central Valkyrie? Where is Kraftvoll, then? Did he perhaps do something to you, Belle!?" asked the human princess after seeing Belle's expression.

After hearing Princess Kyomi's remarks, Belle decided to wipe down her tears. A moment later, she decided to hand over the note to her while saying, "I'm going on a trip to the Central Valkyrie at this very moment. Join me if you want to but I'll depart after my preparation."

After hearing the letter, the human princess was shocked beyond belief as well. She said with a determined face, "I will go with you. You better notify the boys as well while I send a message to my father, The King."

Belle's teary face earlier was replaced with a slightly happy one after hearing the human princess. They decided to move quickly after they made up their mind. After all, the situation might worsen as time passed by.

"I refuse to believe that First Brother is dead! We are going to prepare right away for a journey. Don't leave us behind!" said Godwin after hearing the news from the human princess.

Without wasting any time, they began their preparation for the long journey ahead of them. 

In less than an hour, all of the big-shot students from the 210th class were all ready for departure to rescue Kraftvoll. Azari, Ouryuu, Agua, and Anastacia were going to be their ride toward the Valkyrie so the eight of them decided to ride at their backs.

Since they were not trying to hide their departure, they were found out by their homeroom teacher. The moment before they could depart, Teacher Zorn asked them, "Where are the eight of you going at this time of the night!?"

To train their jewel generation earnestly, the Verrater Academy decided to entrust them with the guardians to be their homeroom teacher. This year, Teacher Zorn was the one assigned to their class because Teacher Liebe was their homeroom teacher when they were sixth graders.

Princess Kyomi came down from Ouryuu so that she would be able to hand over the letter. As soon as she did that, she runaway toward Ouryuu while saying to her homeroom teacher, "Teacher, I am very sorry for leaving without any notice. Read that letter to know the situation. Also, please notify my father as well."

When she was able to get on Ouryuu's back, the four seishin beasts simultaneously took off from the academy toward the Central Valkyrie.

After reading the letter, Teacher Zorn's face suddenly turned very white. 'This is not just the Verrater Academy's predicament! This is the whole Holy Alliance's predicament! I must inform every at this very moment!' he thought to himself as he rushed toward the quarter of the headmaster of the academy

~~~~

"We have a situation, headmaster!" Teacher Zorn shouted as he barged toward the room of the headmaster.

"How grave is the situation that you come barging into my quarter at this time of the night!?" asked the headmaster who was on his sleeping attires.

Teacher Zorn immediately handed the letter to the headmaster as soon as he saw him. 

"THIS IS-! Mobilize all the faculty teachers of Verrater Academy and half of our Shadow Corps forces! We are going to venture to the Central Valkyrie Forest for a rescue mission! I'll notify the Holy Alliance while you do so!" said the headmaster of Verrater Academy after reading the letter.

"Yes sir! I'll be on my way now!" said Teacher as soon as he heard the command of the headmaster of Verrater Academy.

'This situation is quite grave for the Holy Alliance! I only hope for that kid's safety or else the Holy Alliance would fall at the hand of that rumored kid from the Dark Alliance!' the headmaster thought to himself as he was activating his seishin device to contact the kingdom.

"Why are you contacting me at this hour, Headmaster Wylris?" King Arthur said to the headmaster after he answered his call.

"Forgive me for contacting you at this hour of the night but we have a situation, Your Majesty!" 

Headmaster Wylris explained everything to the king of the whole Walkiria Kingdom. Before he could even finish what he was saying, King Arthur decided to rush as fast as he can to go to the Central Valkyrie Forest.

While he was doing so, he thought to himself, 'Why is this happening!? If only I waited until he reached the Seishin Royalty rank before I told him to go there! Kid, you better be okay!'

While he was on his way toward the Central Valkyrie Forest, King Arthur decided to mobilize some of the elite forces of the Walkiria Kingdom to follow him. After all, the Holy Alliance couldn't afford to lose a seishin practitioner with Kraftvoll's potential.

'If we ever lose Kraftvoll, the Holy Alliance would fall to the Dark Alliance's hands to that wretched crown prince of the Drachen Kingdom! They wouldn't let us kill that kid easily like we did when they attacked Schild City,' the human king worriedly thought to himself after he mobilized some of the elite forces of the Walkiria Kingdom.

Meanwhile, Belle was looking so far ahead while she was riding at Azari's back. On his back, Aredhel said to her, "Don't worry about the President, Belle. He is the strongest person in our generation! I'm sure that he will escape from that situation one way or another."

"Yeah! I am feeling that he is still alive! I would never lose him!" said Belle in response to Aredhel.

"Don't you worry, Sister-in-law! First brother is the toughest man that I know! He would never kick the bucket just like that!" said Godwin while he was riding at the back of Anastacia with Sabina.

Despite the seriousness of the situation, Angela was still absorbing the light seishin essences from the level eight seishin beast core from virtue. While they were on their way to the Central Valkyrie Forest to search for Kraftvoll, Angela began evolving again.

"Angela is evolving!? Wait a minute! She managed to evolve to a Principality in their journey and now she's evolving again!?" said the human princess in shock while Kraftvoll's second seishin beast partner evolved next to her while they were riding at Kraftvoll's back.

~~~~

After a few dozens of minutes of glowing, Angela was able to evolve into a Virtue, She escaped the evolution of the seishin beast of angel race on one level. From the strength of a level six seishin beast, Angela's strength managed to reach level eight because of her will to come back to his master's side.

"We're going to find him alive, everyone!"
