Chapter 169 Damian's determination...
169 Damian's determination...
Hotel Devalya, Meeting Room.
"And since there's not much time before the mission starts, we will use the academy's teleportation altar and send you guys to the port city of Oaklum tomorrow..." (Raji)
"The two third years have already gone to Oaklum, thus you will meet them tomorrow when you go there... make sure you all can cooperate..." (Raji)
After saying that, Raji got up from her seat and said in a cold tone as she glanced at the horizon outside the window.
"A sudden dungeon outbreak has happened at the western border, although it's in a barren area we can't leave this be, along with that outbreak new 'ruins' have appeared..." (Raji)
"I will be in charge of investigating those ruins... but I will wait for good news from you guys, make sure you perform as good as possible..." (Raji)
"It's a simple investigation mission, complete it early and return back early to get some extra training done before leaving for the meeting..." (Raji)
Seeing that everyone nodded their heads at her, Raji was satisfied and said:
"Good, that's all for now, gather in the ground during the afternoon, I will use my portal to get us all back to the academy..." (Raji)
"It attracts too much attention to go with the car after all..." (Raji)
After Raji ended the meeting everyone left the meeting room one by one and went back to their rooms to gather any of their belongings that were still in the rooms.
When the students left the hotel staff and the hotel owner entered the meeting room.
The hotel owner who used to be fat just a few days ago, had now lost so much weight that he looked underweight now.
(Raji's presence made him stressed and restless for several days, bro ran back and forth so much that he lost more than 50 kg of weight in just a few days...)
"Uh, would you like to have breakfast.." (Hotel owner)
Ignoring the hotel owner's nervous tone, Raji shook her head and replied in a cold tone:
"No, I am not in the mood to eat now... besides we are leaving in the afternoon today, I will teleport the students away with me, so inform my driver and the bodyguards to return on their own..." (Raji)
"Understood!" (Hotel Owner)
Raji nodded her head and teleported from the meeting room to her own room directly.
(Her room was just a few seconds away from the meeting room yet she used teleportation instead of walking there...)
After confirming that Raji and the others were finally going to leave, the hotel owner finally felt a huge burden being lifted off his shoulders. (He slept for three days straight, after that...)
In the afternoon, Raji opened a portal and teleported the students back to the academy.
After reaching the academy, Raji bid them farewell and flew away towards her office without much hesitation.
"Yawn~ I feel so sleepy, I am going back to my home first..." (Riya)
"Oh, let's go together then..." (Link)
"Okay" (Riya)
Riya and Link left the academy grounds with Link's personal car and left the group too.
Rio nodded his head at Lia and went back to the boy's dorms and Lia went back to her own dorm room.
Everyone in the group dispersed eventually.
...
Link's personal car.
"What happened to your father, by the way?" (Link)
Link was quite surprised when he didn't see Damian again after going back to the hotel.
Two days had already passed since they all left the dungeon and until now there was no news from him at all.
After saying all this Damian went silent for a while. Finally, he opened his eyes and stared at the food with a depressed look on his face.
"Sigh~ life is so fickle.... Each of my party members seems to have reached a very unfortunate end..." (Damian)
"Aside from me, none of them is alive now..." (Damian)
It's been ten years, after all, many things have changed in this long time. Two new SS-rankers appeared in this decade and various things have changed dramatically.
"It might take me a few more days to finally fit back into the society again..." (Damian)
Hearing Damian's depressed tone, even Link and Riya felt sad for him.
Damian had lost too much by now. He lost his wife, his daughters, his comrades, and his time, he had missed the opportunity to witness the growth of his daughters.
With great hesitation, Link asked Damian.
"Uh, if you want, you can live in the Rex mansion for a while..." (Link)
Before Link could finish his words, Damian shook his head and denied it.
"No, I don't want to burden you children... for now I will go back to the old home where I used to live with Riya and the other two..." (Damian)
Damian sighed, again and again, he seemed to be quite 15:15
stressed and in need of an urgent break.
"I need a few days to clear my mind..." (Damian)
Damian stretched out his hand and showed his new smartphone to Riya.
"Let me add your contact information Riya... once I have calmed the chaos in my mind, I will contact you and try to plead for forgiveness to Raji again..." (Damian)
Hearing that Damian wanted to repair his relationship with Raji, Riya smiled and hurriedly added his contact information on her own mobile.
"Good, I will persuade my sister as much as possible! I bet mom will be happy to see you too!" (Riya)
"Ah, yes, now that you have mentioned her, tell me how is her health... has there been any sign of improvement in her coma?" (Damian)
Hearing Damian's question, Riya replied in a happy tone:
"She isn't suffering from any major problems, as a healer myself, I think the reason why she is still in a coma despite being fine, is because she doesn't want to wake up at all..." (Riya)
"A healer can heal and save lives, but if the patient doesn't want to be saved himself, then it would become very problematic to save them..." (Riya)
"I think the only way to wake her up is, that you have to convince her to wake up, dad..." (Riya)
Damian nodded his head and replied in a solemn tone.
"Then I will do my best... thank you my dear daughter..." (Damian)
"Welcome! Hehe..." (Riya)
