Chapter 285 - 285: End Of The Road

"I figured you'd need the exercise, grandma"

"Ha?"

Charlotte could not help but look back and forth between Van and the stranger walking towards theht in the center of the city, she and her daughter-in-laere talking about her son, and hoas ai all around the world without any purpose

But even before she heard the loud bang, she had already detected that so towards the city at an incredible speed So, unlike the rest of the residents of the new city, she wasn't that alarmed as there was only one person capable of that kind of speed-- Van

But due to the city and the castle going in to panic, she sadly had to cut her interesting conversation short as she had to personally tell the people that it was alright But still, the pressure was high as there was an ongoing ith Circle, so the people weren't convinced and Charlotte had to once again personally enter the Pit, where the trail of golden lightning was last seen

And lo and behold, she was right It was Van What she did not expect was that he ith someone else, and whoever this man was, he looked quite fa at the brown-skinned nized who it was

"Aren't you Bong Padilla?" Charlotte said as she furrowed her eyebrows, "What is going on here, boy?"

"He's with the Circle, we couldn't really fight inside the hidden base, so I brought him here," Van quickly explained, "And also, his… body is too tough for ht him to you"

"All the way from the reservoir?"

"A little bit father since it was already floating in the air," Van shrugged nonchalantly as he once again turned around, walking towards the Portal But before he passed through it, he let out a long and deep sigh, "Will you be able to handle hiht?"

"" Charlotte once again placed his attention towards Bong, as now idly standing a fewout a sht Also, after you're done with hio inside the Pit"

"What aren't you telling me, boy?"

"If we fail, there's a chance all of us eline said it will be safe inside the Portals Good luck"

"What?" Charlotte wanted to stop Van to ask one

"" And so, Charlotte could only focus on the situation at hand

"Was that really a wise decision, Mrs Gates?" And as soon as Van was gone, Bong finally opened his mouth to talk, "It would have probably been better for you if he assisted you, you will not be able to defeat e"

"I actually think I can," Charlotte let out a chuckle as she started taking off her outer gar her arms and body to the li when both of us were younger," Bong only shook his head as a pair of wings eain leaving the lower part of his body to stand on the ground

"And I have forgotten how disgusting that fight was"

"I re the trees and the ground behind him to be bloay as he shot towards Charlotte His lower body as well started running towards her like it had a mind of its own

Charlotte, on the other hand, continued to stretch her body cal towards her, "Well…

I also renant then"

"!!!"

Van could see the scenery in front of hie several times in a second He could remember his first run from the Academy to the Relic Graveyard, and he remembered the elation he felt that ti at a speed several tied

Perhaps it truly was fate, as Van couldn't think of any other power that would have been perfect for hi of rush, excite parent… but at least it was how it iined it would be

He continued to run until the colossal island that Evangeline was keeping afloat ca war between the forces of the Resistance and the Circle caught his attention

He blinked a couple of ti island and the cries of war in front of hi about it, he chose to pass through the warzone

"W… what the!?"

"What's going on!?"

The soldiers of both sides could not help but stop as so into pieces However, the people that were fro as a wide smile appeared on their faces, which soon quickly turned into a cheer
