Chapter 154: Sleep

Ed looked down at the mess the war left behind. He spent about two hours fighting along with his companions in order to finish all the enemies. No one was allowed to leave alive. He met up with his companions and made his way towards the wall. Everyone had already gathered up there, waiting for him. As soon as Ed's foot touched the wall, his mother jumped at him.

"Where have you been?! How could you disappear for so long?! Do you know how worried I was?!" Elizabeth started asking him so many questions, all while using her fists to hit his shoulders. As a Heavenly Establishment, her fists did pack quite a punch, which Ed felt. He also noticed that she had never done this before. 'Was she afraid that she'll kill me?' Ed thought to himself and chuckled. Suddenly, her fists stopped, causing Ed to look at her. Tears filled her eyes as she said, "Welcome back." Although tears filled her face, her warm smile let Ed know that he was truly back home.

"We need to go back to the castle, some stuff happened there," Ed told them, as he remembered the injured Becky. He also got a fright since he now knows that Leonard is injured and can't defend himself. He was wondering if an enemy attacked him in his helpless state.

Everyone nodded and followed after Ed. They all wondered why Bella was with him when he appeared, but didn't ask her as they waited for the war to be over.

As they reached the castle grounds, everyone's hearts tightened. They could see the massacre that had happened here. Ed told them everything that happened while coming over here. He also told them he'd be responsible for everything as he was the one targeted in the first place. The people here were simply unlucky.

As they made their way inside, Ed noticed some bodies that did not belong to Avalon kingdom's people. Suika and Becky were also nowhere to be found. Ed checked his Map and found three green dots gathered in one room. 'That should be them. I'm guessing they're with Leonard.' Ed told them that Suika and Becky were here and probably went to find Leonard. He asked where Leonard is, even though he knew. But others don't know about his Map.

They all headed towards the clinical area where Leonard was at. Ed recalled his companions in order to let them rest. Raikou, however, decided he would stay with Ed. Before they entered the room, they were surprised to hear a sudden outburst.

"Hahahahaha you're a miracle child aren't you?!!!" It was Leonard's voice. At first, Elizabeth and the others thought something was wrong so they rushed inside. But then they saw Leonard being perfectly fine. In fact, he was holding Suika, with two hands, and lifting her in the air. Becky was next to them, with a different set of clothes since her previous one was damaged and full of blood. Her left side was completely healed.

"Master Ed!" She looked at Ed and tears filled her eyes. Her perfect poker face was finally broken due to her reunion with the one she spent the most time with.

"How are you doing, Becky?" Ed smiled at her warmly. Eric behind him whistling while Griffin was laughing secretly. Ed was thinking of a way to get back at them.

"Suika?" Bella made her way towards Leonard and looked at Suika in her human form. Her color and features changed, making Bella ask her if she was her.

"Yes! Suu!" Everyone's attention was now over Suika who spoke. Only now did they notice that Leonard's hands were back as if they were never gone.

"This is?" Elizabeth asked while advancing forward.

"It's Suika's power," Ed told them. Those present here were the ones that could use Nen. Oliver was also present and was taught as well. Since Ed explained to them her Hatsu, they understood what happened.

Suika's Hatsu was a miraculous thing indeed. It is called Demonic Angel and is activated once Suika speaks the name. A figure of an angel with fours wings appears. Each pair has a black and white wing, one of a bat and one of a bird. Ed thought that the figure appeared due to Suika being influenced by Merry who she gets along with. Once the angel appears, a circle of over 100 meters is established. This size can be controlled however Suika wants. Anyone inside the area is divided into enemies or allies. Enemies would suffer acid-like burns inside, while allies would be healed. However, the injuries she heals eat away at her QI. Once her QI is gone, it will start eating at her life force. Due to her being high-leveled, she is able to heal wounds like missing hands. Body parts as well, all without going over her limits.

"Suika, the bodies outside, did you kill them?" Ed asked her about the bodies he noticed. If Suika was the one who killed them, then they were enemies, if not then there might an enemy who killed them. Ed didn't notice anything on his Map, but it was better to ask.

"Yes, Suu! They appeared and tried to sneakily attack Leonard Suu! So I killed them Suu!" Suika explained her logic in a simple way. Ed chuckled at her display. She swung her hands while saying "killed them" making her look like a cute little child. He also confirmed his earlier thoughts about Leonard being attacked.

"Yaaawn." Everyone was surprised when Raikou yawned. He actually let out some killing intent along with it, shocking everyone in the process.

"Oh yeah, we're very tired right now. I'm going to go ahead and sleep, we'll catch up afterward." Ed could feel his eyelids getting heavier and heavier while he spoke. As a Heavenly Establishment, he could stay without sleep for as much as a week without being affected. However, Ed had not only remained without sleep. He crossed over two continents, fought four Heavenly Establishment cultivators, and ended a war. His sleep resistance was now almost zero. No one objected, and let him head to his room, which was kept tidy for his return. The maids and butlers still alive took care of those that lost their lives. Ed felt his heart tighten once more.

He reached his room and activated his pocket dimension. Inside, he summed all his companions and modified the room to be much bigger. He created large beds for everyone and they all slept for more than two days.
