Chapter 214: Distant and Cold but Still Remember (2/2)
Rex looks to the entrance and found the butler standing in the middle of the hall,
He motionlessly stands in the middle of the hall, and Rex frowns upon seeing this knowing that something is up by the way he acts.
”We'll be leaving for a couple of days, take care of Ryze for me”, Rex said.
He then intended to walk past the butler but the butler stands in front of Rex's way.
The butler looks at Rex with guilt before he said, ”I'm sorry, I had to do this”
Hearing this, Rex looks at the butler in confusion.
”What do you mean by that?”, Rex asks with a frown when suddenly,
Knock! Knock! Knock!
The entrance of the room got knocked a couple of times roughly,
After the third knock, the butler went towards the entrance and open it revealing five lecturers wearing a red uniform with stern gazes.
Rex saw Chandler amongst the lecturers, ”Chandler? What is the meaning of this?”, Rex asks.
Chandler then take a step to the front before he answered, ”You're not permitted to go to Beah City, you will stay inside the university until further notice”
This makes Rex's group widen their eyes in shock, especially Adhara.
”My father is in danger!! I need to help him!!”, Adhara shouted in anger.
By doing this, the university shows that they don't really care about Adhara aside from herself because she's a top Awakened here.
Rex scans the group of lecturers with a frown, 'All of them are rank six, we can't beat them'
After declaring that, Chandler signals to the lecturers to catch Rex's group.
This makes Adhara's body burns with purple fire, her blazing purple fire becomes even hotter as she glared at the lecturers.
But before she can do anything, ”Adhara stop it”, Rex said.
Adhara looks at Rex with a frown, ”They're blocking us! We need to save my father!”
”Trust me”, Rex said while looking at the lecturers.
Adhara looks at Rex with a doubtful expression, but she then reluctantly turns off her purple fire and lets the lecturers tie them with mana.
Seeing that Rex's group stops retaliating, the lecturers finally refrain them under Chandler's watchful gaze.
Rex look at Chandler and said, ”Who ordered us to be kept here?”
”Vargas order us to stop you guys from going on a suicide mission, the butler told us everything you discussed”, Chandler replied plainly.
He then added, ”Rex, I hope you understand that this is for the best”
Hearing this, Rex becomes angry, ”By letting our loved one die?!! Is this what you ask us to understand?!”, he shouted angrily.
The muscle in Rex's body contracted as a violent aura blew the lecturers.
Although it was subtle, it still gives goosebumps to the others.
Chandler widened his eyes seeing this, he can feel how threateningly violent Rex's aura is which even makes him feel danger.
Even the lecturers step back because of this,
But Rex didn't plan to fight them head-on, he will not win if the vice-principal got involved.
”Let me talk to Vargas, that much is not too much to ask for right?”, Rex said sarcastically, he's clearly angered by this.
Hearing this, Chandler nodded his head and brought Rex outside.
Rex sent one last assuring look to the others before he left the room with Chandler.

Meanwhile,
”President Sebrof, The Reinforcement from the Great Barricade has just arrived”, a man said after entering a room.
Hearing this, Sebrof waves his hand, ”Bring them here”
After getting his order, the man left the place and came back with three people.
The three people that just came emit an overwhelming aura that makes the man shudder, they're important people and anyone will know them just from a glance.
It's the backbone of humanity, three eighth rank Awakened.
The group of three consists of two women and one man, and some of them are already geared in armor ready for battle.
”President Sebrof, Can't the situation handled by you? The Great Barricade will be threathened with three eighth rank Awakened away”, a man said while scartching the back of his head lazily.
The man's red eyes glance at Sebrof lazily,
His frame is quite muscular with orange undercut hair, and he seems to be the more relaxed one amongst the three with his black shirt covered with black leather jacket.
Then a woman with light blue hair followed, ”Don't mind him president, What is the situation?”
The woman with light blue hair looks clam with her ocean blue eyes.
Her breast and shoulder are covered in armor with chainmail underneath covering all the way until her thighs, blue hood attached to the armor covers her head with a white bow that is the size of her body strapped on her back.
The bow is beautifully carved and covered with smooth runic pattern with a glowing ball of blue energy located in the middle of the bow acting as the bow's heart.
Sebrof then stands up, he looks to the group of three with a serious expression before he explained, ”The situation is dire as the demons started attacking neighboring cities, and this cannot be allowed to be left longer so we will divide into teams of two to attack both demonic cities together and wipe them”
Hearing this, the group of three nodded their heads.
But then, ”Aren't we better off sticking together? What will happen if they set up a trap for us”, the other woman said.
This woman looks more mature and strict.
Long blonde hair added with her sharp emerald eyes gives her an air of invinsible intensity that makes other nervous around her.
”We may take the safe route, but riots will keep spreading the longer the demonic city stands. By that time, the humans will split apart”, Sebrof replied with a sigh.
After answering their questions, Sebrof then said, ”Meet me downstairs in ten, we'll eliminate the demonic cities and I expect no casuality. If your life felt dangered, just retreat back and report”
”You're too precious for humanity, and are not allowed to die there”, he added.
Hearing this, the group of three nodded their heads as Sebrof walk past them.
