Chapter 450: Restoration (2) (2/2)

”Darling, look, Yuko is in the headlines again.” Sofiel giggled as she pointed at the news being shown on the widescreen TV in our room.

As I followed her finger, the other four with us also stared at it and watched intently. By now, they were already assimilated into this current lifestyle and for sure, the five of them were truly satisfied to be with me all these days.

Although we always moved from country to country, whenever we would have free time, I would use it to spend time with them.

At the moment, we're currently in a luxurious hotel suite in Moscow, Russia. As expected of the Principal, everywhere we went, he's some kind of a hotshot so it wasn't really that hard for us to find a private place like this.

”Sister Yuko always sounded so serious in her interviews but whenever she's talking with Daisuke… she's always like a maiden experiencing her first love,” Jayna commented while she's fiddling with some object which took her interest. During these four days, her curiosity was more than satisfied with every place and culture she would be exposed to.

”That also applies to us, don't you think so? I was feared as the strongest Transcendent in my World but before this guy… My destined husband… I will always be a maiden in love.” Sending me her beautiful smile, Nysia stood up from where she was sitting and walked towards my back before putting me in her tight embrace.

Seeing that Nysia stole a march, Avelin jumped up and sat at her favorite place, my lap.

Just like this, our night was once again about to get fluffy.

However, a knock at the door stopped it.

By kissing both Nysia and Avelin first, I gently get out of the two women's embrace to open the door.

Although I was expecting him to come and disturb us anytime to brief us of the current situation, the Principal appeared solemn this time as if a serious matter had come up.

”Kuramoto-kun, You six should stay here for a while. There's an issue that I need to resolve first. I arranged for the next Pocket Dimension location, in two days go to the airport and someone will guide you to your plane. It will take you to your destination.”

Ignoring the arrangement he told us, I was more intrigued about the issue that he needed to resolve.

”Hmm? What kind of issue is more important than restoring the Source Energy?”

”I'm afraid that even if I tell you, your current strength won't be enough to…”

The Principal stopped and didn't finish his sentence.

”Did something happen to my father?”

”No. Not him.”

”If not him, then another one of you?”

The Principal nodded as his grip on his cane tightened.

It's rare for this Principal to show anger like this. All the time I interacted with him, he was always calm, confident and somewhat aloof.

Now I couldn't help but get curious as to what actually happened. Did one of them die when intercepting a Space Vessel?

”I'm already a Rank 2 Transcendent. Is that still not enough?”

”Indeed. In the greater scheme of things, that's nowhere near enough. Although we will not be able to stop every Space Vessel to arrive here on Earth, let us old ones reduce the risk that you will take. I only came here to inform you. Enjoy the night.”

Ending his words like that, a Portal then opened behind him which eventually moved and took him out of our sight.

That sly old man… Are they going to face Rank 4 Transcendents? Well, there's that anger from him, something serious must've really happened and it's probably not just a simple case of failing to intercept a Space Vessel.
