When he had first left home in anger, deep down, he had hoped that his brother would try to stop him. I

If his brother had asked him to stay, even in the midst of his anger, he might have stayed. Unfortunately, his brother had not even come to see him off.

Now that his brother was calling him back home, he felt a mix of emotions. There was happiness, but also a sense of unease.

He knew that his brother was in a dangerous situation, and to protect him, he needed to be by his side. With that realization, he made up his mind. His family was going to return to the Royal Palace.

He glanced at the city from the balcony one last time before leaving the balcony as well. Even though the city looked extremely peaceful now, it was just calm before the storm.

The Holy City had already split into two factions and things could erupt at any time. Not only that, but even the continental war didn't look too far away.

....

While Uriel was preparing for the inevitable, Eren went back to the room where Xiu Ying, Zia and Yu Lin were supposed to be waiting for him.

He wondered if Zia had already explained everything properly. Then again, even Zia didn't know everything that had happened. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

After reaching the room, he knocked on the door, waiting for it to be open. Soon, the door was opened by Yu Lin who welcomed him back.

Eren entered the room while removing his disguise, returning to his normal self.

"You went to the Hero Academy to save them? How could you do something so dangerous?!" Eren didn't even have the time to breathe when he heard Xiu Ying.

Zia had actually told her everything, from the moment where the sect was betrayed by the Ancestral Elders. She told Xiu Ying about her being kidnapped with Yu Lin and being taken to the Hero Academy.

Zia didn't know how Eren had saved them, but she was certain that it was his doing as he had been there when they came to their senses. At that time, they were outside the Hero Academy and on merchant ships already.

From that point on, the explanation simply became that Eren had come to the Western Continent to investigate the disappearance of the Elders after hearing the rumors.

Even Zia herself didn't know that Eren's actual reason was to find the Celestial Dragon's heart and obtain the Holy Priestess' blood.

She also didn't know that it was supposed to be Devourer who saved her and not Eren. If she had known, she would have been even more shocked.

Then again, Eren had already prepared an explanation for her if that ever happened. He had already told her that he had a treasure which could help him disguise, which became a weapon to be used for explanation in the future.

Eren had entered the room, expecting to be the one to explain the story from his perspective with slight manipulation. He didn't expect everything to already be over by the time he came here.

Instead of having to explain, he was only here to be scolded. For Xiu Ying, Eren had entered an extremely dangerous situation. It was lucky that he survived even after going to the Hero Academy, but what would have happened if something had gone wrong?

She understood that Eren had to save his disciple but he didn't even tell Feng Yu about it. Feng Yu still thought that Eren had simply left on a short vacation.

If Feng Yu was to find out that Eren had gone to the Hero Academy and then right over to the Holy City, her expressions would have been a sight to see as well, especially since she wasn't as distant towards Eren as before.

"Why didn't you tell the Sect Master if they were kidnapped? She would have brought them back!" Feng Yu asked Eren.

'Why would I tell her when I did all this to make sure Feng Yu doesn't meet that woman? Can't risk exposing my identity now that I have started winning her trust!' Eren thought, but he didn't say that out loud.

He also had another reason for doing that. Going to the Southern Continent was an opportunity for him to get stronger.

Now, he was completely incomparable to how he had been before entering the Southern Continent. Moreover, he wanted to save his disciples himself.

"As a teacher, what is the point if I can't even save my disciples myself?" he asked Xiu Ying, making her go silent.

"I care about my people. Even if it's the god who takes them from me, I will fight my way to heaven to take them back. So what if it's dangerous? How long can I rely on others to protect what's mine? "

His voice grew louder, as if reverberating in the hearts of those who heard him. At this moment, he was the only person they could see and hear.

His words touched both his disciples. Eren was willing to go so far to protect them, even if it meant putting his own life on the line. It was his pride as well as his courage that allowed him to come alone and succeed in saving them.

It was Xiu Ying who had questioned him, but when she heard his answer and looked at the determination in her eyes, she received the answer.

Even if she didn't like the fact that he put himself in danger, there was still something charming about those eyes that were as prideful as ever.

"I-" Xiu Ying didn't know how to respond. Was it really right for her to scold Eren over it? She wondered.

He had worries of his own. Did she really need to make things more troublesome for him, instead of being supportive?

She lowered her head like a child who had been wronged, apologizing to Eren. "I am sorry for blaming you."
