In a restaurant somewhere within the southwestern city of Klap, there was a gathering held. The restaurant was closed for a few days to prepare for such an event.
It was a gathering of the Hunters that contributed to the quest. The Hunter Association had sponsored the event.
Kaito Mato, the Hunter Association’s vice president, was the person assigned to supervise the whole operation and was also the one who stepped up to give a short speech.
“Ahem, I am not a man of formalities so I apologise first of all. Now, first and foremost I congratulate you all on the successful hunt. The beast was one of the Seven Colossi and was undoubtedly powerful. Yet you all have accomplished the quest and defeated it.” Kaito glanced over all the Hunters present.
He continued, “It was a beast protected under strict laws. However, once it became hostile, we were forced to kill it before it would b
On a certain street within the Cyss Empire, a small crepe stall was set up. Many people were waiting in line to get some crepes from the stall. Among them,two people were walking out of the crowd.Freeze had two crepes in each hand and was happily stuffing his mouth with them. Megat was walking beside him with a crepe in one hand and a bag containing another crepe in the other. Megat was also wearing a mask on top of his mask.“Slow down Freeze. You’re gonna finish all of that before we even get home.”“I can just buy more!” Freeze said without a care.“God… Hm?” Megat’s steps paused when he saw there was a man dressed in white shirt and blue tux. A gold chain was hanging out of his suit’s pocket and he was wearing a top hat. It took a while for Megat to recognise the person in front of him.“Hey Megat, it&r
"So, the suspicion we've had can be confirmed now?" Bronto asked Crymillia who was once again being treated by Pearl."Yes. I recognise that kind of aura any- ow! Anywhere." Crymillia said."Are you still not used to getting your wounds treated? You're such a baby." Pearl said and lightly slapped her sister's wound."Ow! Come on, don't do that! And I'm not a baby!" Crymillia squirmed and wanted to slap Pearl back.Bronto stopped both of them. "Alright, that's enough you two. Hah… you're both adults. Anyway, that guy really is a Dragon Emperor. This is a surprise. I thought he was on Earth. Why did no one report this?"Bronto had a stern look on his face. He was a bit angry.“Speaking of, what about his other relatives?” Bronto asked.Pearl only shrugged and frowned. “I don’t know. I mean, who has time and ca
'That night.'Flashes of the event that night reminiscenced in her mind."[Heavenly Binds]!"Those words."[God's Wrath: Cleansing Smite]!"Those spells."[Hell Flame]!"Was it her that said them? Was it her that casted them?It was as if she was watching through a virtual reality set. She could see everything happening but she was not in control and yet those actions were hers.Was it mind control? She asked herself.No, this was different. She had already been mind controlled once. This did not feel like one.What was this exactly? She was not sure.Only moments after casting those spells, she lost consciousness midway casting another.…..She opened her eyes in the early morning. She
"What's this about me?" Matthew asked after he silently entered the ward.Cecilia and Rose were speechless. He had just suddenly showed up right as they were talking about him."Matthew."Matthew smiled and walked closer when Rose mentioned his name."I was so worried about you, Rose." Matthew held Rose's shoulder.Time stopped at that moment. Rose stared at Matthew's face that was lit by the sunlight. She could see trickles of sweat which showed that he came in a hurry.His clothes were dirty which showed he had just come from a quest. His sword was still on his waist. He did not return to the mansion to put it away.He had literally just returned, and headed straight here. She was so happy about that."Rose, are you okay?" Matthew's question broke her out of her trance."Y-yes, I'm okay." Rose s
Rose opened her eyes to a completely intact hospital ward. Everything was fine as if nothing at all happened.“Was that just a dream?” Rose thought. “I hate falling in dreams.”“Rose!” Cecilia came crashing down the door as she did before and hugged Rose.“Oof!” Rose was once again surprised. “Cecilia! Get off me!” Rose pushed Cecilia away hard.Cecilia was utterly shocked and confused but she still managed to apologise. “I’m, I’m sorry Rose. I was just too happy to see you awake now.” Her face brightened up almost immediately.Rose was still trying to catch her breath. “Please don’t just jump on people who just woke up like that.”“Y-yeah, sorry.”Not long after, the same doctor and the same few nurses came in. “Miss Ce

“Who is that?” Rose asked.Roosevelt answered with a bitter smile. “That’s me.”Rose glanced between the two people. It was definitely believable that it was her that casted all those spells at once.Rose still wanted to make sure.“That’s you?”Roosevelt chuckled softly. “I hate my past self. I did as my father told without question. As much of a genius as I am, I did not realise what I was doing was wrong.” She shook her head side to side slowly. “That is not who I want you to be. I want my descendants, all of my descendants, to live a peaceful life.” Then her expression changed from sadness and regret to anger. “But that boy just had to bring you with him.”Rose was confused and surprised by the sudden change in Roosevelt. “Who are you talking about?”“Drag
Matthew ran as fast as he could through the streets as he made his way to the hospital. The hospital was filled with people and so was the elevator.He took the stairs and made his way up to the fifth floor. Then he continued running towards a certain ward. He saw a few people standing in front of the ward's door.Cecilia, Yuki and even Gustav and Emilia were there. Matthew stopped once he arrived. They already saw him from afar and turned their attention to him.“I came as fast as I could. What happen-”*SLAP*Before Matthew could finish speaking, Cecilia slapped him on his cheek. Matthew held his cheek and looked at Cecilia confused.“Where have you been?” Cecilia asked him with a threatening voice.While still confused by why he just got slapped, Matthew answered. “I just got back from a quest.”
