66 AFTERMATH

(A few minutes ago)

"You do know that this is all just stupid. Why are you even doing this?" Said Avier who was sitting on Director Goodsky's shoulder.

"I know, but I fell like I need to know everything about him. And I know that boy from the Ravenpor is lying. His family is one of the most rotten families in Xyrus.

'I know he's lying, but why did he use that killing excuse on Madara? Someone is behind him and he or she told him to come and report it to me that it's Madara who killed Kai and Marcos '.

"That's why I put him in that room. He might think it's a normal room, but I put a strong barrier so that he won't escape" Said Director Goodsky

"But why are we here?" Asked Avier while looking at the door in front of them.

"I don't know, but I feel like I should go in and see. What's inside his room"

'But, what is this feeling? Why am I even doing this? Do I really not trust him this much?' Thought Director Goodsky as she opened the door lock and stepped inside the room.

The moment they walked inside. Their eyes landed on the small figure that was sitting on the bed looking at them.

'He left his bond in here?' Thought director Goodsky while looking at Kurama who was sitting on the bed.

~It's not like this beast have the ability to talk. We should just try to fool it while we continue looking around ~ Telepathy, said Avier as he flapped his wings and landed on the edge of the bed.

"Well, Aren't you a cute beast. Your name was Kurama right? Why did Madara left you here all alone?" Said director Goodsky while trying to pat Kurama's head.

"Hmph! What are you doing?"

Both Avier and Director Goodsky were shocked to the core. The ability to talk was something that was very rare. If a beast know how to speak, then that's mean it's got high intelligence..

"You can talk?"

"Of course I can. Who do you think I am? A dog?"

"What kind of beast are you really?" Asked Director Goodsky.

"Can't you just tell by looking at me?" Said Kurama as he jumped off the bed." I don't know what you were trying to find in this room, but you won't find anything here"

Director Goodsky looked at Kurama for a few seconds before asking another question.

"Who really is Madara?"

The question that have been eating her from the start.

"mm, He's my Master"

*..*

-…-

"That's not what I mea…"

A strong hot wind pressure that was traveling like a wave hit the whole academy, causing a lot of windows to shattered.

Director Goodsky had to stop her questioning and looked outside.

The academy wasn't far from the Adventurer guild, So she was able to see the black cloud of smoke covering the sky from afar.

"Wait! That's the location of the adventurer guild!" Said Director Goodsky as she turned to looked at Kurama who just hopped on the bed again like he didn't see anything.

'That's where Kaspian and Madara went. Is someone attacking them? Or are they fighting each other?' Thought Director Goodsky, but her train of thoughts was cut short by the appearance of two large fireballs that exploded in the sky, creating another dark clouds.

Then, there, she saw it. A dragon made out of pure lightning, descending at an incredible speed of only one second.

The location where the lightning dragon hit. Shone like a bright star.

This was seen by almost everyone in Xyrus city.

"No!!" The worrying feeling inside her chest skyrocket.

"It seems like I'm being called"

Director Goodsky turned to looked at Kurama who said that, but he's eyes met nothing.

"Where did he go??"

"He disappeared" Said Avier who saw what happened to Kurama.

"Come. We're going out" Said Director Goodsky as she walked out of the room.

Meanwhile, in another location of the Xyrus city. A man wearing a robe could be seen standing on the bell tower looking at the direction of the Adventurer guild.

"Shit! Retainer Uto is dead. I didn't know there was someone powerful like that in this shity soil. This just ruined my plans… Change of plans, we move now" Said the hooded figure as he jumped away and disappeared in the dark.

The fight between Uto and Madara attracted a lot of eyes. And among those eyes, was Arthur's.

Currently, he was standing on the tallest tower of the Academy building.

"Those were powerful spells that I can only dream of. What's going on there?" Said Arthur while looking at the smoke that was covering the sky.

As he was busy looking at the scene from a far. A portal appeared behind him.

Arthur reacted by jumping back and pulled his sword out.

"It's you" Said Arthur who saw the person that came out of the portal.

Windson looked at Arthur, then he looked towards the direction where the smoke was raising.

'Why am I sensing a small amount of toxic mana that belonged to the Vritra?' Thought Windson as he turned to look at Arthur.

"What happened there?"

"There was a fight, but it seems like it's over"

Windson's face turned serious as he looked at Arthur.

"I'm here to take Lady Sylvia's child and you to Epheotus. I'll return to you after I investigate what happened there.

"Wait!!" Shouted Arthur, but he was too late. Windson disappeared from the spot without listening to what Arthur had to say.

"Damn! You can't just come to me and say I have to leave today…sigh. What have I put myself into"

'I can't just leave my family and friends like this ' Thought Arthur while looking at his bond who was sleeping on his head.

"Who's coming?" Asked Madara while looking at Kurama who turned into a red boiling chakra and engulfed Uto's skull.

But before Kurama could answer back. Madara spoke.

"Never mind" He said while looking around.

The Guild was no more. Everything was destroyed. Dead bodies everywhere. All of these people were caught in the battle between him and Uto.

While looking around. Madara looked at the person who was stuck on the wall. A few black spikes were stuck inside her lower body.

She was alive, but in pain

Madara walked towards her and tried to pull her out.

"Aarrrgg"

Alea groaned in pain as she stopped Madara from doing what he wanted to do.

"huff…please don't. The pain…the pain is too much" weakly said Alea who was still embarked on the wall by the spikes.

Her whole lower body was covered in blood.

'How did I end up like this? The last thing I remember is him carrying me. So how did this happen?... It hurts so bad '

Due to the high loss of blood. Alea felt her conscious fading.

Madara watched as Alea went into unconscious mode. He raised his hand and placed it on her lower back.

Just when he was about to heal her. A sharp edge wall made out of ice raised between him and Alea. This caused him to jump back and looked at the new figures that were levitating in the sky.

Lances. All five of them were looking down on Madara.

Far from the commotion. Windson looked at the person who was looking at the Lances with his indifferent face.

"It's him" muttered Windson

'But, where is the Vritra I sensed?...don't tell me! Is this just a distraction? Does it mean the Vritra went somewhere else?'

Suddenly, Windson felt a hand touching his shoulder.

"Don't" Said the Voice behind Windson.

"Oh! Lord Aldir" Said Windson as he calmed down.

"So, he's the person who fought you?"

"Yes, it's him" Answered Windson.

"I saw him fighting and killing a Retainer from Vritra"

"You did? You mean the presence I was sensing was from Uto?"

"Yes"

"Do you think he's on Dicathen's side?"

"Let's first watch. We need to know who he is first"

"But, he appeared to know too much for a normal human" Said Windson as he remembered his last encounter with Madara.

"Mmm"

Back on Madara's side.

Looking at the five people who were clearly giving him a hostility look. Madara let out a sigh.

"Let's just get over with it" He said as he looked at the Lances

He knows that they won't listen to him. They would try to pin him down, but that's not something he would let happen.

So it was going to be a beat down until someone decided to listen up.
