Chapter 279: 279 - Bastard.

"I see, so I guess I should prepare the carriage for you to use."

Emma smiled and then got up from her chair. After that, she went to her room carrying all the letters looking dejected.

"It looks like she doesn't want me to go," Noah said to Lari.

Lari walked over and sat down at the table.

"I'm sure she wants you to stay here, but she won't do anything to stop you from going to the capital."

"Yes... I'd like to stay, but unfortunately, it's no longer possible, I need to get on with my life."

"You've grown so much... I'm going to miss you."

"Don't say that, you know I'll be able to visit you guys regularly."

"Yes, I know that, but it's still a little sad. You stay here almost the whole week, so it will be strange not having you here."

"Well, I will visit once a week, I promise. Just like I'm going to the capital every week, I'll come to the village every week using my magic."

"..."

"Now I need to take a shower and also get my bags ready."

"Are you already going?"

"I'll go tomorrow. I forgot to tell my mother that I can just teleport to the capital, she doesn't need to arrange a carriage for me."

"That's right..."

"Now I'll let her know. Don't worry, I will talk with you before I leave."

"You'd better do that."

Noah got up and went to Emma's room. When he entered his mother was putting the letters away in a box where she usually kept the letters she received and also some documents.

"What is it? Did something happen?"

"It's not that. I wanted to let you know that I can teleport to the capital carrying my bags, so I don't need a carriage."

"I see. Okay, when you are ready to leave let me know, I want to say goodbye properly."

"Why are you guys acting like this? It's not like I'll never see you again. I get to visit you guys weekly, you know.'

"..."

"All right, I'll take a shower and pack my bags. I'll be leaving for the capital tomorrow."

"Okay."

Noah went to his room, got some clothes, and then took a shower. After that, he packed his bags. It wasn't much, he had few clothes, so he had only two suitcases to take with him.

They were not suitcases, but rather backpacks of a large size.

And after a few hours, dinner had arrived. Noah took this opportunity to talk to his father about his departure. As always, he supported Noah in this and didn't seem as shaken up as Emma and Lari.

'Why does this feel like goodbye?' Noah thought as he ate together with his family.

####

The next day, Noah was already prepared to go to the capital.

With a backpack on his back and another in his hand, he arrived at the dining table where everyone was having breakfast.

Noah sat down and then had breakfast with everyone. Everyone was silent, it was a strange and quite rare atmosphere.

After breakfast was over, Noah went to the living room together with his mother, father, and also Lari.

They already knew that he would be leaving, so they all started to say goodbye.

The first one was Lari. With tears in her eyes, she hugged Noah. Unlike before, she didn't have to kneel to hug him.

"Don't forget to visit us every week, and also don't do anything dangerous while you're away, okay?"

"Don't worry, I'm not an idiot."

"I hope that's true."

After letting go of Noah, Lari wiped away her tears and it was Emma's turn to say goodbye. She approached Noah and then hugged him as well.

Noah held his mother in his arms and smiled.

"I hope you'll be able to live well in the capital. And don't forget, if anything happens we will always be here to welcome you."

"Of course, if something happens I will come here immediately. Who better to console me than you and my dad?"

"Idiot."

Emma pulled away and then gave Noah one last kiss on the cheek.

"And you, you're not going to hug me?" 

"I'm not the kind of person who likes hugs."

"Stop lying, come here." 

Noah opened his arms and his father came closer, hugging him.

"You've become an amazing man. I hope you don't falter and make Ciaphia happy, understand? I want to have a grandchild."

"Ahahaha, you should talk it over with Lisandra, she is older than me."

"No, Lisandra can't have a child until we allow her to."

"Yes, that's right, she's not ready." Emma agreed with Lucio.

"You guys are very overprotective. Well, I wouldn't want to see Lisandra marrying anyone now either."

"You understand, don't you? She's so pure!" Lucio said while looking into Noah's eyes, making Noah laugh.

"Ahahahaha. Well, now I have to go. Don't worry, next week I will be here to visit you three, I will not disappear."

"Yeah, we know that."

"Come back soon."

"Give me a grandchild quick."

"Shut up idiot."

'Isadora, I'm ready to go, teleport me to Ciaphia's room as usual.'

[ Right. ]

Noah's body began to glow, forcing his parents and Lari to look away. At the same time, something began to happen around them, something that resembled an earthquake that began to shake the entire house.

"What's happening? What is it?" With everything shaking, Emma began to despair.

The glow continued, so no one was seeing very well.

Emma, Lucio, and Lari began to feel the tremors getting stronger and stronger. Until the ground beneath Lari's feet gave way.

"AAAAAAH!!! WHAT IS THAT?"

At Lari's scream, Emma and Lucio began to get even more desperate.

"Lari, where are you?"

"Lari, where are you? Damn, what's going on, what is this? I've never seen this before." Desperate, Lucio grabbed Emma's hand.

Unlike before, the glow wasn't diminishing, they were still blinded and had no idea where Lari was.

They walked around the room looking for the door to leave, but before they could do that, they began to hear some screams from outside. They were cries of despair from all the villagers who were also being swallowed up.

Hearing the villagers screaming, Lucio tried to hurry to do something.

But before he could do anything.

The support on his feet disappeared, it was as if the ground was gone.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAH, WHAT IS THAT? LUCIO?!" With a loud cry, Emma hugged Lucio and an icy wind hit her body.

At the same time, the glow was gone and everything had gone dark.

"I DON'T KNOW, WE'RE FALLING! MY GOD, WHAT IS IS HAPPENING TO US?!" 

Emma and Lucio felt their bodies getting colder and colder and also more "soft" it was as if their bodies had had their bones removed.

With this happening, the two could no longer hug each other and could no longer talk.

Before they could do anything, they were swallowed by the darkness that had formed beneath their feet.

Noah who was teleported up by Isadora as usual felt that something was wrong.

It was different from before.

Before it was fast teleportation that didn't cause him any discomfort, but now everything was different.

Everything was dark around him, his body was cold, and he couldn't move or speak.

Because of this, he called out to Isadora in his thoughts.

'Isadora, what's going on?' He asked confused. Noah thought it was just a mistake in her magic and that everything could be solved easily, but he was wrong.

The desperation in Isadora's voice caused chills to run through Noah's body.

[ NOAH, WE HAD AN INTERFERENCE, EVERYTHING WENT WRONG! ]

'What do you mean?'

[ EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING WAS TAKEN, EVERYTHING! ]

'What do you mean? Explain to me what happened!'

[ AFTER I ACTIVATED THE MAGIC, EVERYTHING WAS OUT OF CONTROL. THE MAGIC STARTED TO SWALLOW THE WHOLE VILLAGE, EVERYONE WAS SWALLOWED AND I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE THEY WENT. ]

'HOW SO? THIS DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE!'

[ I DON'T KNOW!!! AS SOON AS MY MAGIC WAS ACTIVATED SOMETHING MANAGED TO INTERFERE WITH IT AND CAUSED THIS, I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER ANYTHING! ]

'You've got to be kidding me...'

[ Calm down, I'm sure everyone is fine, they were probably teleported somewhere else, that's all. ]

'Even my parents were taken away?'

[ Yes, Lari was also taken along with them. I can't do anything to stop your teleportation at the moment, you'll probably be teleported to the same place as everyone else. ]

'...'

[ Please be safe, and it wasn't my fault, I swear. ]

'I believe you. Whoever is behind this, I'll be sure to make him/her pay.'

Noah gritted his imaginary teeth and then felt his consciousness fade into darkness.

Isadora watched Noah disappear and she lost contact with him as soon as he disappeared, causing her to despair even more.

[ I need to find him as soon as possible.. I'm sure I know who did this, that bastard. ]
