Chapter 30: The Beast Village 3

Finally, after some time Morana managed to find the place of destination. When she found the object, she could not make out what it was. The only thing she saw was a whirlwind of silver light and a very strong mana.

Suddenly her head became muddled and before she knew what was happening, she had already cut her hand and was dripping her blood in the silver whirlwind.

The next thing she heard was a notification from the system.

[MERGE INITIATED

WARNING!!!

System will be out of service before the merge is over.

Time left: 2 days 23h 59min.]

Everything happened so quickly that she didn't even manage to process it all and she was sent out of the pagoda only to be greeted with questions outside.

'You ask me, who do I ask ha.' She could only sight with exhaustion. Today she had already overused her powers and was on the verge of passing out.

Fortunately, at this moment another Samael also came out of the pagoda and this distracted others attention from her. 

"You guys, leave them be. They just came out and must be exhausted." These words of lady Samantha finally brought all the people back to reality.

They could not help feeling a little embarrassed, well their reaction could be understood after all it has been years since anyone managed to enter the 7th floor of the Jade Orchards pagoda.

Next day Morana and Samael were getting ready to leave the beast city, even though they were offered by lady Samantha to stay longer they had to decline as they had lots of things to do. 

How could Samantha not understand the youth, so she just saw them out.

"You are the saviors of our beast clan so, no matter what happens you are always welcomed here." She said as the parting words.

At this Morana simply nodded her head and bid her goodbye.

"Wait." Just as they were about to leave, they heard someone's shout.

"WWait." Ioannes ran with all his might in order to catch up with Samael and Morana when he heard they had already left.

"You guys aren't you going to Axis for the secret realm opening?" 

"And?"

"Did you forget that I also got the invitation? Anyway, I have to go so let's go together." He said with a little expectation.

"Sure." Said Morana.

Ioannes was already expecting to be rejected, so it took him some time to react to Morana's answer.

"Aren't you coming?" She heard Samael's question, who was already pretty far away.

"Huh?"

"You should go quickly, don't delay people."

Ioannes finally reacted and bid his goodbye to lady Samantha and ran after the two who were already pretty far away.

'Ahh young life sure is good' thought lady Samantha as she looked at three barely visible figures with a smile.

Meanwhile, in Axis.

"Zoel, which inn are aunty and uncle staying?" Asked a beautiful girl with gray hair and blue eyes.

"Mum said they booked rooms in the best inn in the city, but we won't be meeting them there."

"Then where are we going to meet them?" Asked Sophia.

"At a restaurant called 'Divine cat's kitchen'. I just got a message from mum she said to meet them there." 

Others also didn't ask anything and they just followed after Zoel.

It took the group about 10 minutes of strolling to find the place, when they entered, they found that the restaurant was packed.

"Sorry customer, we are full right now." Said the male attendant.

"Someone is already waiting for us in the 3rd private room" Said Zoel and sure enough the attendant led them to the private room.

When they went inside, they saw that three people were discussing something.

"Mum, dad." Said Zoel to make his presence known as he directly ignored the beautiful man in the room.

"Ah. Zoel, everyone you are already here." Said Amalia.

"Hello aunty"

"Lady Amalia"

"Lady Amalia"

The other three youths also greeted with enthusiasm.

"There is no need to be so formal everyone, sit down and eat something you must be exhausted." 

They were no longer polite and just sat down to eat after greeting Leonie and Victor.

"Any news about the baby?" Asked ever talkative Sophie not being able to take the awkward silence created by Victor's presence anymore.

"Nothing, but we managed to find out that she goes by the name Rana." Answered Leonie with a little excitement.

Sure enough, hearing his words Zoel's face also softened a bit.

His guilt always haunted him for all these years. He remembers when he first found out that his mother was pregnant, how happy he was.

Always near his mother counting days before the baby's birth, but just because of one mistake it resulted in his treasure being lost and almost dying. Not only baby he almost lost his parents that night and even his life.

This became a shadow in his heart, then when he found out that the baby was actually alive, a glimmer of hope rose in his wounded, frail heart, but with every day, her life was in danger and there was nothing he could do, this almost drove him mad.

"Are you sure she will come to this city?" This sudden question from Shio brought Zoel to reality. He was also worried about this, what if his sister didn't come here what then?

"This is our best lead so far, anyway there is still time and our people are monitoring the whole city we will find her." Answered Leonie helplessly and others also nodded in agreement.

Will these 9 years of separation be finally over?

Hearts of the people in the room were filled with anticipation.

Alas, fate is a cruel thing. It loves to play jokes with others' hearts.
