38 Journey Begins (1/2)
That stormy night, Rainer was escorted by all the elders of the Lorren clan to his bedroom.
They kept spitting saliva out of their mouths and raising their voices trying to get Rainer's attention.
Boom!
”What a bunch of bastards, I didn't even exist for them yesterday... and now everyone shouts my name...”Rainer huffed after closing the door with a slam.
”...”
When Rainer approached his bed, Alisha was there, lying in a fetal position while a trail of tears ran down her face.
”...!”
After the slamming, Alisha woke up and noticed about his presence.
”Young master! You are safe!” Alisha jumped out of bed and hugged Rainer, both of them falling to the floor.
”I was very worried...sniff...sniff, I thought I would never see you again...”Alisha said as she whimpered.
”...”
Rainer was exhausted, he just remained in silence and stroked Alisha's back until he fell asleep.
Only in Alisha's embrace, Rainer was able to feel at peace...
...
The following morning, the news of the tournament spread throughout the province, after all, an abyssal beast was involved in the matter!
Obviously, the story of a young hero who called a storm to kill the abyssal beast spread beyond Luo Province.
Yren was declared a traitor and it was forbidden to bury his corpse, his sins would follow him to his next life...
Although they were enemies, they were once brothers, so Rainer offered a prayer for his spirit.
...
Rainer's name was never mentioned, only Guardians and elders from the clan knew the truth of the case.
For the sake of the clan, it was better for everyone to think that a powerful expert was hiding in the Lorren clan, someone capable of killing an abyssal beast on his own!
The spies who attended to the event, returned to their clans and reported their findings, Rainer was only portrayed as a talented youth that everyone underestimated....This prevented a lot of problems for Rainer...
...
At the moment, Rainer was meeting with Wolfang, the clan protector, Zin, the head of the clan, and Liann, his aunt.
Everyone was gathered here to talk about Rainer's future.
”What was that thunder that landed upon you?”Asked Zin, he still had in mind how beautiful and sharp was that jade sword...
”Ohhh, that... was my innate demon bloodline skill... ”Said Rainer hesitant, he didn't even know nothing about Scale of Doom!
”So it was true that Rena is a demon...I never believed my brother...” Said Zin, looking down.
”My sister is not a simple demon, you useless geezer!” Responded Liann.
”...”
Cough Cough!
”That doesn't matter now, Rainer, there's something we have to tell you.” Wolfang said with a serious expression.
