Chapter 145: Chapter 144: A new story: Ignited
Rein brainstormed throughout the night in order to find out what was going on, he tried to seek all sought of communication he could use to get to Jon but Hagar was on his tail back to back, since there was even a lot of Hagars. He opened his eyes from the short sleep he had only to be reminded of the pending danger that Jon might be in danger, it suddenly struck him that he had subjects. He sprang up and came out of the bed he sat down.
"Ariel can issue a command to my subjects using the link skill"

"Use skill link"
๐ก๐๐๐โ
Rein immediately felt like he was take away from where he was, then It was like he could see the consciousness of the draconic wolves and even tell where they are, it was just like a feeling, he didnโt need to particularly use Telepathy, all he had to do was think of the command and direct it to the consciousness of a particular draconic direwolf. The instruction was received by one named loki and was one of the three that had a fire attribute, it had red hair and the red fur stretched down to its nose and through the neck down to its chest.
It immediately received the command from wherever it was and began to run, the huge body and weight caused the ground to make a thudding sound as it ran off. The others it was with accompanied it with an howl, like they understood it was on a mission but Aurora jumped from high on the cliff she was and joined Loki, both of them snarled together but soon continued to run together in silence. Rein smiled as he stopped using the skill link because the longer he stayed on it the more his mana will he getting drained and he wasnโt so blessed in mana, thanks to dark mana accepting he might have been unable to use a lot of skills. He sighed, "Iโm relieve a bit" Rein suddenly paused and his expression changed.
Rein had something that was called the dragon sixth sense which often activated itself in times of danger and sudden approach, he hadnโt quite gotten a hand of it. But the draconic sixth sense just activated suddenly and Rein could sense the presence of every single creature with 400meters of himself down to the crawling ants, if it was any other person they would have run Mas but Rein had a dragon body and his mind was conforming to it so it wasnโt difficult for him to handle but he was scared at the fact that he could handle something Iโve that easily, many times Reinโs change scared himself, because he didnโt want to lose the affections for his friends and become more of authority-obssessed deity. He stood up and wore along coat on the white round neck shirt he would often wear, but this time he was on a black short pants. He dashed out.
He got out of the hall and straight to the general ground, it was busy as usual and had the Britain medieval era vibe, โno, not hereโ he went on and kept walking calmly but fast till he got to an alley, he smiled, โperfectโ
Arnette jumped down from the roof of the building that formed the building, he smiled and his facial expression showed that he was very happy to say Rein.
"Sir Rein seems to have grown yet again...how did you know, that I was around and following you...and why did you lead me here, do you perhaps know why I have come to find you?" Arnette had so many question about how Rein responded to his presence even when he was in stealth a skill that erased his presence.
Rein ignored all of Arnetteโs worry and asked, "Where is Jon?"
Arnette was bewildered, โno way...he knew...how...did Jon perhaps reach out to him Arnette asked, "Did he reach out to you before he went missing?"
"Reach out to me?...what do you mean he went missing?"
โHe doesnโt seem to be aware of anything, is this just his pure concern for his party...even if it is to be able to discern that much without being told anything, he must not only be a leader with great strength, then he is wise too... a king prospect...I probably should not make my hypothesis too rashly, thereโs still a lot of time before I eventually can decide that.โ Arnette went on one knee immediately, Rein was of course shocked by Arnetteโs action because in terms of status right now, Arnette was way higher than he was, Arnette is a Belmont, the first on the ranking of dukes, that meant heโs father was the Duke with the highest political a influential power within the empire, which made him a figure not less regarded as prince himself and yet that figure was bowing so diligently and sincerely before him.
Arnette who had never really open his mouth wide to speak higher than himself for once shouted, "forgive me Master Reinard!!! I was careless and was not able to protect your loyal subject!!!"
"...yo...yo...yo....chill, Master?....loyal subject...?" โs this a Korean movie?โ
Arnette continued, "It was sudden, the butler of the first leader just started pasting drawn pictures of Jon and one another named Dugnis around, saying they had committed a great offense and he placed a bounty on them, heโs probably watching our move to see if we will lead him to Jon but we were not able to find even a smell of him"
Rein punched a hole straight into the wall, " I was hoping it was wrong dammit!!"
Arnette stared at Rein with pity in his eyes, โis he in so much pain because of Jon...he truly is a true... kkkii...leaderโ
"But if the butler is watching you donโt you think he would have let you here deliberately"
"I thought so too...but there was nothing I could do, I needed to see Master, the entire fortress of the first elder is in turmoil right now, since we arrived the first leader has not been able to see us and alot of us are being restless, not to say the death of the third leader has shaken the whole atmosphere and the immediate appointment of another..." Arnette looked up to Reinโs face.
"...ulfur...he took up the seat of the third elder...minutes after his death, yet he had defeated 40 challengers in less than five days...heโs a monster Iโm not ready for, yet my party members are in that place I have to get them out."
Rein looked towards Arnette who quickly composed himself together and awaited what Rein was going to say.
"Arnette?"
"Yes, Master Rein"
"Stand up, I have a task for you"
Arnette stood up, "Iโm at your command"
"I want you to go get Cualli and the others out of the third union leaderโs fortress, since it is someone that hates me, he probably hates all my party members. Staying there is dangerous..."
"But the academy... this is supposed to be more of a training issued by the academy through the leaders right"
"Arnette right now, this is not a training anymore, because a storm is about to break out and I hope the storm does not shake the whole world"
Arnetteโs eyes shone brightly โwhat a word...inspired by wisdomโ he quickly bowed and replied, "I will gladly carry out your command"
Rein smiled and closed his eyes for a moment, he opened them forty seconds later, "there will be ten wolves waiting outside for you, youโll recognize them when you see them, let them assist you on your way"
Arnette was a but confused but he still thanked him anyway.
"Go now!!"
Arnette immediately jumped and ran up the wall to the roof then erased his presence. Rein looked at him and was relieved a bit. He sighed, "now I have to find Jon myself,"
"Hey what are you doing there?!" A soldier screamed. Rein turned his back and smiled, "morning stroll I guess"
The soldier took a better look at him as he came out, "uh..Madameโs boy, go right now, there is an emergency meeting right now"
"Sure sure ..." he moved along, โdamn them since the day I won theyโve been calling me Madame boy even when the second union leader has rarely been around since the time he went to see her, the thirteen days was remaining seven days and he canโt wait again as everything was speaking that something was wrong, if je taken into account the way Hagar has been keeping surveillance on him lately, it was too suspicious of him and he felt that it was by going wherever the second union leader was going is the only way to find out what is wrong and why Jon was where he was, he needed to stick with the second union leader at all times, he finallybreach the training yard, all the soldiers were queued in rows and columns, he just quickly join somewhere so as not to cause disorder, โI wonder what is wrongโ he was worried as he awaited the butler to start.
Hagar came up soon and started, "There will be a dungeon hunt and excavation..."
All the soldiers raised their hands and voices Iโm the air the moment Hagar finished saying dungeon.
Hagar smiled as the noise slowly came down.
"This was mainly organized for the students who have come to train here, we have decided that we will be giving them a real time experience of a dangerous dungeon, brace up student, we leave in six days, and five of me will be going with you to ensure your safety note, you will be the one actively hunting but have the soldiers here to back you up, buckle up brats ... we leave for Mount Owlberry in six days!"
Rein raised his hand. Hagar answered, "you have a question honorary student"
"Will the second union leader be coming with us?"
"No she wonโt, instead she would be challenging every single.one of you the moment you are back and be giving you one on one lessons"
Every shouted both the students and the soldiers, they were extremely joyful except Rein.
Anger was written all over Reinโs face, he was very pissed that all his face wrinkled and his veins were almost popping on his forehead, โbastard...heโs trying to separate me from herโ
