Chapter 367 Events



Erend burned every last bit of remnant of the giant flesh wolf. But he still felt that the rage in his heart was still not extinguished. He had to do something more than just burn the fake form of the being that was trying to mess up his world.

'How can I find him?'

Erend was still floating in the air while thinking that. He fell to the ground and deactivated all of his Skills then ran over to where Adrien and Billy were.

When he got to the alley it turned out they were both awake. They widened their eyes in surprise when they saw Erend running towards them.

"What happened?" he asked.

"There was a big explosion in the middle of the rioters earlier. Probably caused by a suicide bomber," Erend answered.

"Then what happened? Where are you from?" Billy asked.

Erend explained that all the pieces of the victim's body were used by a being to form a monster. And he just killed that monster.

Adrien and Billy's faces turned grave. They were silent and looked at each other.

"If our bodies aren't adept to Magic, we're already part of that monster, Captain," Billy said, his face turning pale.

Adrien nodded. "We got lucky. But not with other people."

Sirens sounded from afar and were getting closer. Along with that was the sound of many cars coming in groups. News of the explosion that occurred amid the rioters must have reached everywhere.

"Actually," Erend said anxiously. "I didn't know if maybe someone saw me fighting that monster."

Adrien and Billy looked at each other again. Then Adrien said. "Everyone in this area should have been evacuated. The only ones who didn't go were the rioters but they're all dead. You don't need to worry."

"I don't know, Captain," Billy replied.

"Well, yeah. We really can't be too sure in such an open place." Adrien shrugged. "But didn't you use the power of the scale?"

Erend nodded.

"Then you don't need to worry. No one should recognize that it's you," Adrien said.

Erend sighed and decided not to think about it anymore. After all, it's less important than what's happening right now.

The car and ambulance group finally got there. They were dazed after getting out of the car and seeing the state of this place. Several parts of the building were destroyed as if they had just been hit by a dozen wrecking balls. Blood is smeared on the ground and there are still some scattered body parts.

"Wha..." one of the soldiers in charge of leading the troop lost the ability to speak. So are the people around him.

Not long after Erend, Adrien, and Billy came out of the alley where they were hiding. As they had expected, everyone in the squad stared at them with eyes filled with questions.

After saluting, Simon, the leader of the troop asked them.

"What happened here, Captain?"

"It looks like a suicide bombing, Sergeant," Adrien said. "But we can't be sure. The riot was so chaotic and the three of us had to go to rescue some residents who were caught in the middle of the riot."

Adrien started to say the lies they made a while ago. He didn't know if that would sound convincing but Adrien, Erend, and Billy were sure that they wouldn't bother to fact-check the answers. There are more dire things to deal with now.

"Then…" Simon glanced around at the sight of blood and fleshes scattered on the ground. "Did the bomb destroy them all like this?"

"The truth is," Adrien said with a tense expression. "A monster appeared."

The expressions of Simon and everyone who heard Adrien's words became even more tense than before.

Adrien, Erend, and Billy were sure that if they said that, these people would immediately believe it considering all the things that were going on right now. They don't think the appearance of a monster is anything strange anymore.

"Shit," Simon muttered a curse under his breath while rubbing the top of his head, frustrated. "What the hell is going on with this world..."

Adrien, Erend, and Billy chose not to say anything even though they knew the answer.

"Let's return to headquarters, Captain. Looks like you also have injuries that need to be treated immediately," Simon said.

"Yeah," Adrien replied.

After that, they left that place. Several forensic officers and soldiers stayed behind to collect the body parts of the poor people. When they searched a bit further, some saw burnt marks on the ground and buildings.

"Take a look at this," one of the soldiers who saw it said to his friend and the other soldiers who were walking not far behind him.I think you should take a look at pandasnovel.com

The other soldiers walked over with frowns. "What is it?"

The Soldiers who were earlier pointed at the ground in front of them. "What do you think this is?"

When he glanced in the direction where his friend was pointing, the frown on the soldier's forehead deepened. He saw a small burnt piece of meat. And when he looked up, the soldier saw that there were many scorched marks from the high heat around.

"What the hell happened here?"

His friend didn't answer because he didn't have any answer either. They were there for a few minutes and finally decided to walk around the area. Hoping to find something that might answer their question.

All they found were odd and copious traces of damage. But there was nothing they could find as an answer.

ƥandasnovel.com In the end, the two soldiers decided to end their search because they found nothing. They just assumed that these burn marks were just part of the monsters that suddenly appeared and fought. Which is not wrong, but they didn't know that one of the fighting monsters was among them.

The two soldiers turned and walked away. They didn't notice that the black-burnt fleshes on the ground were moving, they were slithering and blending again.

Hours passed until finally, night fell. Adrien, Erend, and Billy were allowed to go home after the nurse confirmed that there was nothing wrong with them. The nurses who looked after them felt a little strange because there were obvious explosion marks on their bodies. But the three of them showed no injuries caused by the explosion.

However, the nurses simply took it as their luck since there were already other soldiers who were injured. So they let them go. Even welcome them to come home

Suddenly, Erend got a telepathic call from Aurdis.

'Erend where are you?'

Erend immediately gave a signal to Adrien and Billy when he got a call from Aurdis. The two of them immediately understood and they immediately went to a room that happened to be empty.

'Aurdis? Is something wrong?' Erend asked. He always thought that something was wrong recently because of everything that happened.

'No. Nothing's wrong, Erend,' Aurdis answered softly. As if she understood how Erend felt.

Erend breathed a sigh of relief. He gives a nod to Adrien and Billy saying that everything is alright. Adrien and Billy also breathed a sigh of relief.

'I just want to tell you that we have come to this world. Together with Aerchon.'

Erend fell silent. He still didn't know how he should react to this situation. Should he be happy because of Aerchon's help or should he still be suspicious of him?

'Aerchon also came with his five personal warriors. They will help us.'

Erend grunted. 'I don't know, Aurdis. He brought his personal warriors here, that seems suspicious, doesn't it?'

'I know how you feel. But you can trust him. I will take responsibility if he does something to harm your world again.'

Erend was silent thinking about Aurdis' words. Then, accepted it and believed in Aerchon because Aurdis defended him.

'Fine. Besides, if he messes up I'll take care of him myself,' Erend said.

'Yeah. You can take care of him,' Aurdis said lightly. 'You can go to the building we used to practice now?'

'Yes. We will go there now.'

Afterward, the three of them left the military headquarters and headed straight to the former dojo building. When they got there, they found Arty talking to Aurdis about something.

Saeldir was focused on reading the books in his hands, making sure of something for the task they were going to do.

While on the other side of the room, there is Aerchon who is standing cross-armed with five other Elves behind him. When the three of them entered, Aerchon regarded them with those ever-arrogant eyes of his.

Billy snorted. "He's not planning another invasion, is he?"

Billy didn't even bother to lower his voice. Aerchon definitely heard that.

"So, what should we do?" Erend asked to the point.

"We will create an artifact and place it all over Adaeram in this world. So we should go around the world and activate the artifact. That way, the artifact will reduce all the bad effects of Magic awakening in this world."

Aurdis explained it to the three of them. After hearing it, the three of them couldn't help but become dumbfounded.
