Chapter 207 - 207: Mother

"Andrea…"

"H on h!"

Van's cheeks could only be crushed as Andrea's e with the Enhancer-types during their battle with the City Guards, no one had placed this kind of pressure on hi it, it was as if he was feeling everything The warmth of her arms, the comfort of her skin, the hush of her voice… it was as if Van's body started to sting

A surrender

For the first time in his life, his body was in unconditional surrender Once again, the curiosity for discovery, the hunger for truth, and the search for who he really ere pushed from the back of his mind as he felt Andrea's embrace…

the embrace of family

And soon, even Van himself surrendered as he placed his ars, but in the end, nothing ca he needed and wanted to say was in his embrace

The two stayed like this for a while before the sound of a footstep whispered into their ears, "Hehe… the gang back together again"

It was Harvey, currently approaching the as he nodded his head repeatedly

"We shall now officially be called…

the Aven--"

"Mr Evans"

Before Harvey could finish his words, another one stepped forward and approached Van, it was Headmaster Hans Or perhaps just Hans now that the Acadeer functional

"Headmaster"

"Please, just call me Hans"

"What do you want?"

Van's tone then suddenly turned cold as he let go of Andrea, looking straight at Hans' eyes Although Van ultiht disdain towards his former Headmaster

While he was currently paralyzed by Sarah's grandfather and being thrown around in the air like so And he swore he could hear that Hans was in agree for you," Hans cohtly bowed his head towards hihts soinable deeds that--"

"Can you do this later!?"

Before Hans could finish his words, Andrea suddenly raised her voice, "I a to talk with my brother!"

"But… you weren't even talk--"

"Why don't you give this ain, Hans was interrupted as he felt a heavy thud on his shoulder

"C… Charlotte," Hans turned his head, only to see Charlotte's hand on his shoulder Hans could feel his heart dru endlessly as this was the first time in their lives that Charlotte had ever touched his for her, no It was anxiety Charlotte only makes physical contact with those who she thinks won't be crushed by her accidentally… or towards people she doesn't like

Hans was a Unique-type that had the power to read and influence the minds of people-- Charlotte could definitely crush her So… that could only eline wants to--"

"I've already finished reuniting with my family," Charlotte said as a small smile slowly crept on her face, "Why don't you talk to ela?"

"I already did, she's not telling h, "You kno she is"

"But--"

"Let's go," Charlotte then gently dragged Hans away before he could even say anything else, "Why don't we explore your father's ho you know?"

"W… wait!" Hans could only screae Hans could read Charlotte'sthat Hans was not allowed to answer But before they could make it far, Hans turned his attention towards Van, "After you're done with everything, yourfor you at the lake! She will explain everything to you!"

Were Hans fleeting words before she was co them from behind

"What was that all about?" Van could not help but furrow his eyebrows fro Hans' pleas It would see, but at the sa him

Just what exactly happened outside while Van was busy planning his escape and playing President?

"Evans, I think it is better for you not to ht, Andrea's words whispered into his ears "I think so as well," Van breathed as he looked at Andrea, "But I think I have to"

"If you're afraid, then we shall ether!" Harvey suddenly inserted himself in the conversation

"It's fine," Van could only let out a slight chuckle as he shook his head, "But hoere you guys able to go inside the Portal?" Van then asked as he scanned the people present

Everyone he kneas here Latanya was currently busy talking with the other Locals, explaining the situation that happened outside to those ere already inside when the huge boulder fell And the others assisted her
