Chapter 47 David

It was already nighttime, as Kids and Aizel were still playing in the fields. Alex arrived on time, as promised, and the enjoyable day spent together came to an end.

"We wanted to play with you some more," Ruth stated, while the other children nodded in agreement.

"It's already late, guys; we'll go somewhere else after I return from my mission," Aizel said.

"Then promise us you'll bring us all back together." She said this while crossing her arms around her chest.

"I promised okay; now let's go," he said while the children quickly ran together to give him a group hug.

And just like that, all of them traveled back to Chester town without any issue.

As they arrived in Chester town, the children excitedly talked about all the things they wanted to do together. The promise he made had brought them closer than ever before.

Aizel and the kids said their goodbyes to Daisy and Lilly as they went on their way to their new home.

"I think I'll sleep here today." Aizel thought as he went to his room while the rest of the kids went to their personal rooms.

They were all exhausted and quickly fell asleep.

Meanwhile, at the same time, there was a young man with short blond hair and deep blue eyes in the beautiful white-colored house that looked like a castle straight out of a fantasy movie. He stood about 5 and a half feet tall and had an arrogant expression on his face.

"Sister, don't you want to wish me success for the raid tomorrow?" He said this while conversing with her older sister, Leah.

"It's not like you're going to do anything with so many hunters and guards present for the raid," Leah said while yawning, she wanted to go to sleep but that stupid brother of hers was not letting her go.

"Just wait and see; when I complete this raid, mom will praise me in front of everyone, and I will finally secure my foot for the family succession." He said with so much confidence that he was sure that nothing wrong would happen on the raid.

"Is that so?" Suddenly, someone interrupted the conversation. Leah and her brother both turned around to see a beautiful lady with golden hair dressed in a white nightgown standing behind them.

"Mom, what are you doing here? I am sorry; I didn't come here to brag about anything; I just wanted to have a chat with my sister, that's all." Leah's brother said while he panicked after seeing his mom.

Their mother wielded the most power in the family, and everyone feared her. She was not only beautiful, but she was also a 'Grade II mage'.

"Instead of bragging, you should prepare for tomorrow; believe me, this is the last chance I am giving to you; there won't be another one, David." She said as her cold blue eyes stared at David. Sweats started appearing on his forehead as he quickly bid goodbye to both of them and went to sleep.

"What about you, Leah?" How's the situation?" She asked as she sat near her on the bed; they were currently in Leah's room.

"Everything is going well; we won't have any problems. I hope you will keep your word." Leah said.

"If you are able to pull this off, I will keep my word," her mother said as she left the room while Leah went to sleep too.

Aizel awoke the next morning, remembering that he was not in his apartment.

"Well, I shouldn't worry about Alora; knowing her, she would have ordered something for free while using her power and was now enjoying her meal in front of the TV." Aizel thought.

He was spot on, as Alora had ordered some noodles and was now enjoying them while watching K-drama.

Aizel walked into the hall after quickly taking a bath.

He found the kids were not there, as their noises were coming from outside. He went to see that Lilly and the rest of the kids were playing together. "Let's go, guys," he said as he led the kids to Daisy's shop.

Aizel dropped the kids off with Daisy and headed to the hunter guilds, where he would meet Lucas, Harry, and Alisha.

"I hope nothing goes wrong today," he thought as he walked, while suddenly someone pulled his shoulder.

He turned around to see that it was none other than Leah.

"What are you doing here?" He asked as he was confused; Leah was hiding her face with a scarf and had a deep black hood.

"Listen to me, there might be a Grade II monster. I am not 100% sure, but the chances are high. Make sure you treat the raid seriously, as there might be other hidden dangers too. Please make sure to return safely; there are more thrilling places that I want to visit with you." She said with a concerned look on her face.

While Aizel was in a deep dilemma, if what she said is true, then he has to give 100%. He does not know how many people are going to participate in the raid. How many of them will be mages?

"All right," Aizel said as Leah went back, and he headed towards the hunter guild.

He discovered Harry and Alisha standing outside the guild.

"Where is Lucas?" Aizel asked after noticing he was not there.

"He's inside, and he's told us to go to the meeting spot where everyone will meet. He'll go straight there." Harry replied.

"Let's go then."

Just like that, Harry, Alisha, and Aizel headed toward the meeting spot.
