Chapter 72 The Dawn Headquarters In A Village, And Cute Cows?

"This place smells like shit!" Serana said, moving through the sewer, making sure not to step on pieces of shit.

"Of course, this is where all the shit goes. Let's keep moving and leave this city as fast as possible."

"Where will we go? We cannot go back to the school now!" Vanessa said.

Serana and Hazel were only in the school because Damian asked Darius, and the two did not like it very much.

Vanessa also hated it, especially after someone tried to kill her inside her house! Damian was the only one feeling sad about leaving Garmony, as he would miss his friends.

"Let's first see how the situation goes. Can they find my face and make me a wanted man? I covered my face the entire time."

Damian then remembered the student was still tied inside his room, "fuck."

He had used the identity of that student to get inside the school, but with everything happening so fast, he couldn't return and free the student.

They would find him, and that student was inside the room Damian was using it! Sure, he never showed his real face to the student, but it was still his room, and he would turn into the primary suspect.

"Fuck. Well, there wasn't anything I could do…."

Damian was sad about that, but it was not like he could have released the student earlier, so it was unlucky for him.

"Where will this lead us?" Damian asked.

"Ah, a cockroach!‌ Help!" Vanessa yelled.

It was funny, considering she was a superhuman with special abilities capable of killing beasts, yet she was scared of a little cockroach. Damian had to take care of it, using his Telekineses to make the cockroach explode.

"Happy now?"

"I am, I am. This sewer will lead us outside the city and presumably to a place without guards. But the real question is, where will we go after that? Do any of you have a place to go? "

Serana was from the dungeon, just like Hazel, so they did not have a place to go. Damian only had his father's home, but that was the most obvious place for him to go, meaning it was not safe.

"No, we don't. We must go with the wind and hope it goes well."

They had nowhere to go, but that was not a problem. Damian already wanted to create his base for The Dawn, so now he could choose anywhere! The only lingering problem was the money, but there were many ways to earn it, and Damian was sure he would find a way.

"Let's focus on leaving the sewer and then leave this area going as far away as possible, presumably using the woods to avoid the traffic cameras."

That was the best course of action, and all of them agreed to it, moving forward, trying to leave that place as soon as possible. It took them twenty minutes to leave the sewer area, and no one could endure the smell anymore, the rats and the insects. It was just gross!

Damian, who usually didn't have a problem with that sort of thing, was also starting to feel inadequate after the fifteen-minute mark, so he was glad it did not last much longer.

The end of the sewer led to a place outside of the city, and just like they had planned, the best route for them was the forest, as it would avoid any cameras.

So they did, walking through the woods and facing the bugs, dangerous animals, and beasts, but it was better than being caught and going to prison, or worse, getting executed!

When night came, Damian made themselves a camp, something he already had experience with, and all of them slept in the wilderness, waking up the next day and doing the same thing.

It kept going the same until they finally reached a countryside village with fewer people and did not even have internet!

"The perfect place for us to lay low. Also, there's a big city nearby, so we can still go there if we need things."

All the people living in that village kept looking at them, surprised to see newcomers, as it did not happen daily. Hell, it happened once a year.

There was a house for sale there, which was cheap, as the place was just wrong. The house was all made of wood, the three streets were muddy, and many farm areas and animals were around.

"So this is where we will live? It barely fits two people!" Serana said.

She was used to living in a palace, so a place like that was terrible. But that was what they had, and they would have to find ways to survive.

Darius could not believe things had happened that way!‌ He knew they did not discover someone had stolen the precious items from the principal's room, but they chased Damian, meaning he could not deliver the stone to him!

-Darius: "I must find him now that the tournament is over! Poor Aurora, she won this thing, yet there is no reward because Damian stole the serum too!‌ Now, where will he go?"

It was not something broadcasted on the TV, like, 'wanted criminal' but Orton's Superhuman School and all its allies were chasing Damian, as they knew he had been the one who stole the items, yet they had yet to discover how he did it.

A masterclass heist performed by a student. That hurt their pride, and the principal did everything to find the culprit!

In just one week, Damian and the girls were living in that village, and they became friends with almost everyone — not that there were many people to befriend.

His house may be small, but the land wasn't, allowing for planting food, caring for cows and chickens, and improving their house, creating more rooms for them to sleep apart.

With his mental abilities, Vanessa's earth one, and the supernatural strength from Serana, it was easy to do all of that.

"Look how different this place is after only one week. We now have cute cows!"

Damian was loving his time in that place. He was someone who played a lot of farming games, so it was like a dream coming to life.

Of course, he knew there were other things to do, and the construction of The Dawn headquarters was happening simultaneously. Soon the base of a powerful organization would start in a small countryside village, hidden from everyone.
