“Well, that’s it... Voli was promoted to S rank and evolved to...” Fein looked at his sister with a meaningful eye
‘And evolved to Mythical Beast?’ Fey quickly picked up what Fein was trying to say.
And she couldn’t blame him for not saying it directly. After all, there are other three people with her. In the continent, the mythical beast was only a myth, hence its name. No one has ever seen one. So, if it was known that Fein’s beast companion had evolved into one. It would cause chaos...
Whether to those greedy or curious people. Although Fein could suppress them with his strength, he doesn’t want unnecessary trouble. He still has a lot of things to do that need his attention.
If the attention is too distracted, everything will be done, and everything will be difficult to achieve. On the contrary, if you understand the profound meaning of ‘I only do one thing well today’, it is easy to achieve extremely high attainments in a certain field.
Fein’s behavior has always been like this. Rarely does he study different things at the same time. Most of the time, he is exceptionally single-minded!
Do the most important and urgent thing at the moment! So unwanted attention caused by Voli’s evolution is unwelcomed by him.
“Well, if there’s nothing else. We still have something to take care of... Fey, you have to remember. Although being weak isn’t a sin, in this cruel world, it determined many aspects in life. Too many people die every day and they’re just part of it. Like Captain Gregory... That’s why strive to become stronger and more knowledgeable.” After Fein said this word, he gestured at Voli.
This time, Aiz became disappointed when she heard Fein’s words. She didn’t expect that she looked up to be such a cold person. “That’s not right. We should protect the weak and helpless. I was wrong about you!”
.....
“I used to think the same thing. But now, not necessarily.” Fein shrugged and just walked out directly to the door.
He is different from others, he never engages in meaningless arguments, and he believes that individuals have their own ideas, and there is no need to force them!
He will not be angry because others hold opinions different from his own, nor will he want to impose his own ideas on others, just listen to them, laugh at them, and then be silent.
This world is more attractive because of its differences.
If they don’t agree with him. Then that’s alright. He also believes that not everything he thinks is right and that only time could prove whether he was right or wrong.
Voli rubbed his head on Fey first and didn’t hesitate to follow Fein.
Fey didn’t know how to speak as she heard her brother’s cold words. ‘It seems Captain Gregory’s death changed him.’
In the past, although Fein was already more mature than his peers. Fey could still perceive an optimistic aura from his way of speaking. But now, she felt that he became somewhat emotionless when he speaks and rarely smile.
“So cool!” Manoli and Gerald exclaimed at the same time. They didn’t know that their vice-captain had a different opinion than them.
“What’s cool about it? He just said those words like he didn’t care about the lives of the people who died. And isn’t it partly his tamed beast’s fault? Sorry for being blunt, Vice-captain Fey...” Aiz said, clearly upset about Fein.
Fey looked at Aiz coldly. “Don’t talk to my brother like that. You don’t really know anything about him.”
Manoli and Gerald’s eyes widened. This is the first time they saw their vice-captain get angry.
“I-I...” Aiz was also taken aback. It’s true that she didn’t know Fein, and only about the rumors and his deeds. She was just upset as she saw someone she looked up to have a different personality than she thought.
“Well, I’m with the vice-captain this time. Have you forgotten? The past captain was like a father figure to Sir Fein. And he died last year...” Manoli said.
“And the captain said that his brother hasn’t stepped out of his room within that year, right? It clearly affected him. It’s only reasonable if he changed that much. If my mother or my father died, I might go crazy.” Gerald added.
Aiz was silent for a while. ‘Did I really judge him impulsively?’
She thought for a while before she admitted her mistake. She knew that she shouldn’t judge a person just by their words. And she didn’t know Fein in person that much. “I’m sorry...”
“Well, forget about it.” Fey sighed. “I overreacted. I just don’t want anyone talking badly about him in front of me. Though, he really changed. If it’s in the past, he won’t say such words. I’m also surprised.
Let’s talk about it later. Since it’s determined that it is already safe. Let’s go find the wounded or if there’re other survivors and tend them.”
...
“Buddy, it’s up to you now.” Fein sat on the rocky ground.
Now they are in the open area near the mountain range where his laboratory was located.
“Master, is it true that a lot of people died because of my evolution?” Voli asked with a dazed expression. He just felt complicated because some innocents died indirectly from the process of his evolution.
“I know you would blame yourself. Honestly, do you really feel sorry? Humans and beasts are different races. You shouldn’t feel bad that much, right?”
“You’re right. That should be the case since humans aren’t the same race as me. But Master, I grew with you... A human. Now, I feel also feel a kind of attachment to humans, unlike other monsters.”
“Is that so?” Fein became speechless. “Well, don’t worry much. It’s also partly my fault. I didn’t expect your evolution would produce such a dangerous phenomenon. If I knew it earlier, I would have brought you to a place devoid of people. But what happened had already happened. We can’t go back in time. If they have a family. I will make sure to pay them enough money to support their life. Do you know? Accidents occur occasionally.”
