Chapter 22 - Going Home 3

On the road leading to the Bolivar capital city a black sedan moved through the free road as it , ahead of it and trailing it were two car's which were occupied by some escorts.

Inside was a woman with a very young girl nested within her embrace.

With the car still in motion she looked outside the tinted window and then smiled, although she could have just taken a train to get to the capital city.

Her special identity would make things complicated if word got out about her location.

Although admired looking at natures view more comfortably at the train. Her intuition decided against her taking a train so she made the choice to instead go by car.

See in the world of Smara although several means of transportation was available.

The safest to travel in-between cities where portals and trains.

Portals though good was expensive and apart for the public one's only High ranking guilds, organization, and families where known to handle the cost of operating one.

While train had been research and made with cutting edge technologies, not only does it move fast, it can also tank on an onslaught from a B rank monster.

And so it be besiged or under attack a response team is available to respond.

After enjoying the view the woman looked towards her sleeping daughter and then sighed.

"Is anything the matter lady Vera" the man beside her asked.

"Ohh its nothing Desales" she replied in a cheerful tone.

The man beside her was Desales, he was someone who had been by her guard before she got married and always protected her.

Although she was an awakened she never really be much of a fighter, so most of the fights were left to Desales.

"Don't worry my lady we are getting closer to our destination and it seems the young miss was really tired".

"Yes am telling you travelling all the way from stale is tiring even for me but that damn Justin still sent me here".

"My lady you know talking behind your husband isn't really good and what if you wake up the young miss".

"Ha, Desales what did my husband give you for you to betray me like this" she then started pouting.

Meanwhile Desales just smiled upon seeing her reaction as she was just in her usual of stage of being a tsudare.

As they continue talking Desales then felt the change in the atmosphere.

"Stop the car and signal the others to get ready for combat".

After giving out orders did he then try to gather his thoughts.

Who is attacking us, we made sure to avoid being tracked right?, we even used some concealing artifacts, well I will leave that for later but now the lady and the young miss safety comes first.

"Lady Vera please activate you in your defensive magic tools".

Grasping the situation Vera smiled as she pulled her half-awake daughter closer to her.

Getting out of the car, a blade suddenly appeared in his hand as he looked towards his enemies.

Although it might not seem much he rank is that of a mid level master.

Noticing the attack his expression dropped instantly.

"You damn constellation lackeys do you know who you dare attack".

Of course we do Mr Desales, one of them said as he approached, like the others he was covered in a Black Cloak.

Removing his hood a it revealed a middle aged man wearing glasses.

"Hello great sir my name is isamitsu, a devout follow of [serpent that devourers its own tail]".

Although he spoke like a standard business man if it wasn't for his unsettling.

"Alright thanks for the introduction, you can run along now",Desales said while waving his hand.

"Ooh right but I fear you have something we need".

"Is that so" feeling no need to continue the conversation they both launched towards each other.

*******

Pant pant pant

As the fight progressed Desales was subtly pant while looking at the dead body of lying in front of him

It belonged to isamitsu who enhanced mid fight but was still no match for a mid master awakener.

Just then a dark flame projectile flew towards the car, acting on his reflexes he was able to block the attack

Stepping out of the background was a bald man, age estimate was mid to late forties.

And his energy level matched that of Desales.

Seeing this Desales clicked his tongue, it seems the one's he fought earlier were just expandable to make him was his energy.

Also detected for changes in his surrounding, it seemed the enemies placed a veil to prevent early arrival of reinforcement.

Seeing the scales were not on his side he looked towards vera as he signal for her to get something ready.

Just then the bald man spoke

"I see you held well against my underlings but you luck just ran out".

As he snapped his fingers a small flying fortress then showed up in the air with monsters pouring out of it, taking a closer look the one which seemed to be the leader was A B rank monster while the rest where mutant C rank.

Due to the height in which they fell some of the monsters die upon contact with the ground.

While the other monsters attacked the escorts upon landing.

The escorts already injured from the previous battle could barely resist the monsters attacking them.

Some of the unoccupied, showing signs of being under control made their way to the car.

Sensing the movement of the monsters and their destination, Desales urgently tried to stop them but was checked by the bald man and the C+ monster.

Getting to their target, their claw glittering as it prepared to strike, suddenly a gust of wind engulfed them and blew them away.

The wind then spread through the area that the Masters paused their fight and had to maintain their balance on the ground.

Surprisingly the car after a little jerking forward and backward was the least affected.

Turning over to the source of the wind, with the wind still blowing a silhouette started to form.

The whole area turned silent as the silhouette started becoming visible, as the image became clear the person was identified.

It was Nicholas
