Chapter 523 - Return
A few days later. Theo had finally returned to his home.
After considering Ben Lange's information, Theo ultimately chose to stay until his birthday, which should happen next month.
He spared no efforts in coming to the Temple to get his status updated.
Little did he know, his master had been moving in the dark.
She was following Theo back because his parents were still around him. While sitting a few hundred feet away from him, she noticed some movements. "Hmm, a few rats…"
Nina counted them before she disappeared.
Her first target was a middle-aged man standing not far from Theo's house.
"!!!" The middle-aged man sensed her presence, but Nina had already grasped his neck, electrocuting him.
She had destroyed the camera around there, so no one realized when a person suddenly disappeared because Nina dragged him with speed faster than their eyes could follow.
It took her several minutes to kill a total of ten people around Theo's house. She took their ID Card issued by the Temple and reduced their bodies into ashes with her lightning.
After that, she made her way to the Lange Family, bringing their cards.
Looking at the huge mansion standing tall as if they did nothing wrong made her furious.
"Well, Theo should be the one to handle this problem, but…" Nina stood in front of the mansion. She raised her foot while covering it with her lightning.
Bam.
The next instant, the foot stomped the ground and the lightning sparked.
The area turned into a crater in an instant while the spark shattered the entire buildings, leaving only a few pillars to remain standing.
The big mansion soon crumbled to the ground and was reduced into a pile of rubble.
"What… What is happening?!" A shout echoed from within, followed by a series of screams.
They all were shocked and couldn't understand what was happening.
Nina just destroyed the mansion with a single stomp. However, she made sure no one died, especially the innocents. She didn't wish to repeat the same thing she did back then after all.
Endo Lange hurriedly came out of his mansion and saw burning grass. There shouldn't be a spark of fire around here, yet the fresh burning smell entered his nose.
He soon realized something was going on and found three sentences.
"You are bound to die in a few years."
"Escape means I will personally kill you."
"You should just accept your death later!"
The tone was arrogant but delivered the message.
Endo Lange widened his eyes in shock, wondering who had just destroyed his home. He noticed the crater, indicating something hit it. But even he, a Supreme Rank Expert, couldn't do something like this.
"A Mythical Rank Expert…" His body began to shake uncontrollably as he gritted his teeth. His gaze was filled with anger while shouting, "Goddammit!"
Nina was in no mood to play with him anymore and just left the cards there without thinking whether he realized it was there or not.
After destroying the Lange Family's mansion, she headed back to the place she had never stepped foot in for almost two decades.
She was standing in front of the Eilric Family's mansion. Now that Ray and Valerie had come to this country, she could finally see everyone again.
"Such a nostalgic feeling…" Nina muttered in a low voice, staring at the mansion. "It's been so long since I last stood here."
Suddenly, an aged voice echoed from behind. "You… You…"
Nina smiled and turned around, looking at him with adoration. The one who came was none other than Nart Eilric, her husband.
"You come back…" Nart gasped for air a few times as he couldn't believe the person he saw.
"It's been seventeen years, Husband. You must have hated me now."
Nart looked at her and subconsciously approached her. He also noticed her power and bit his lips. "You have become Theo's master, which requires your strength to be Mythical Rank…"
The moment Nart arrived in front of her, he hugged her tightly. "You have come back… Now you have come back! I'm sorry that I can't do anything for you. I'm sorry that you need to work so hard. No, what I should say right now is…
…welcome home, love." Nart tightened his hug, expressing his longing.
She was sad that she couldn't meet him sooner. Even when she explained their situation, she could only send him a message, not meeting him directly.
Now that Theo's parents had come, she could finally see her family again.
"I'm sorry it took me so long to return."
"As long as you come back… All is well. All is well." Nart denied her, expressing how he felt. He didn't care about the time anymore. As long as she returned, it was enough.
He also knew that Nina must have gone through a lot, considering he was stuck at Supreme Rank while she was an influential Mythical Rank Expert.
"How are James and Nadia?"
"They are fine. James has moved on while Nadia still holds the grudge… Though, it's not to that extreme. I believe they can go just fine." Nart smiled, explaining it to her. "How are you?"
"I feel great right now. Don't worry. I have no plans to go out for the time being. I will spend all my time with all of you."
"That's good. That's good."
"How about Alea?"
"She is doing fine. She has improved by leaps and bounds like you. Right now, she's preparing for her graduation."
"Why does she need to graduate?"
"It's just a simple favor. After that, Alea will go overseas. I don't know about her choice though."
"Actually, I have a connection abroad. How about I ask them to take care of Alea? I believe she can reach the Supreme Rank easily. I guess this is also the payment for my service… Don't worry. She won't be anywhere near the Griffith Family and their affiliates."
"That's fine. That's fine. Let's enter first. We can talk about it inside. For now, you should have some rest first. You have worked too hard." Nart extended his hand, asking her to come in.
Nina closed her eyes and smiled. She held his hand and walked together… "Right… I am finally back, Darling."
