Chapter 2029 - Hope (1/2)

Ting!

I was resting when I heard the message bell on my holowatch, and without looking, I knew whats it was about. Still, I looked, and it was about the thing I had expected; my parents would be arriving at the Academy within a minute.

I immediately got off the bed and walked into the living room and found lady Angela is sitting where I left her, reading a book from the bookshelf I had created.

”It is a good book, have quite a unique take on the illusions. I will be borrowing it from you,” She said and placed the book down on the table.

”You don't have to borrow it, Lady Angela; this book is part of a collection of books I have donated to the broken tower,” I said.

”I had heard about it from Charline; she was quite impressed with the collection of books you have donated,” She said, referring to the librarian.

Seeing how the Wisdom Tower had been great to me and let me give unrestricted access to their grand library, including the secret collection that very few people get to read. I had donated copies of most of the books I had to it; it is the least I could do for the great favor they have done to me.

”Let's go, your parents should arrive at any second,” Said the old woman, and I found myself disappearing from my home and next moment found in front of the teleportation formation.

”Grand Tower Mistress, Micheal,” Teacher greeted the old women as we appeared. Teacher is alone, the councilmember is not present, likely busy controlling the chaos that just occurred an hour ago.

The whole Academy had seen that battle, and also many organizations. If I had not needed the Teacher, she would have been handling it all instead of the councilmembers, but for me, she had passed the job to the councilmembers.

Buzz!

A few seconds had passed when the formation lighted up, and four people appeared. Aside from my parents and sister, there is an older man who looked to be in his late sixties.

The feeling he gave me is vast; I am no match for this old man; he could crush me with a finger if he wanted. Though he is not at the level of lady Angela and Lord of Glass, there is a considerable difference between them.

”Micheal!” My parents said before they came hugged me tightly; it had been quite a while since they have embraced me this tightly.

”Grand Tower Mistress, I did not expect you to be still here,” Said the old man who had come with my mother. ”Why?” The old woman asked back, making the old man flustered immediately.

”I did not mean as disrespect grand tower mistress, I just thought you would be at more important places seeing there is war is going on,” answered the old man flustered, clearly very uncomfortable under old women's gaze.
