Chapter 66 - [Bonus ]Nicholas And Zeke
Lucas didn't waste any time as he opened the scroll to read what's inside it.
'Your brother is destined for something much bigger than what you can imagine. Stop worrying about your brother and the organisation will take care of him and nurture him into a powerful being in this firmament world. Stop looking for him and even if you look for him, you can find 'Us'.'
Lucas silently read the words on the scroll and with each word he read, Lucas was brimming with anger.
'Damn it...damn it...damn it.'
Lucas cursed as he threw the scroll at the ground; however before it could hit the ground, it disappeared.
'The same thing that happened to me is happening to Evan. I need to find him and rescue him.'
He knew very well what would happen to Evan when he entered this so-called organization.
He will undergo some cruel training and if he could not endure the training, he would die in the process which Lucas didn't want to happen.
Moreover, even if he survives the entire training, he would be turned into a tool for that so-called organization.
Even though Lucas didn't know what kind of organization took his little brother, he was sure that it would not be a good thing.
'Wait a second. Other than the crystal ball, where did I see this symbol?'
All of a sudden, Lucas felt like he had seen the infinity symbol somewhere before he could see it in the crystal ball.
'Calm down...Lonewolf...calm down and think carefully.'
Lucas calmed himself down and started thinking about the symbol of the organization.
'That's right..the Knight in the golden armour who helped me in the inn. There is a tattoo on his hand.'
Soon, Lucas remembered seeing the tattoo on the Knight's hand when he took a gold coin from his hands.
'Also, thinking about him, he was at the Talent evaluation ceremony yesterday.'
It didn't take much time for Lucas to come to a conclusion that the Knight in the golden armour was the one behind the kidnap.
"What should I do now?"
Lucas used the knowledge from his past life and started thinking about what he could do now; however, he was unable to find anything because he didn't have a clue about the organization that took him.
'Wait a second. There is a way to find out.'
Just when he was feeling like there was no other way for him, Lucas thought of something and hurriedly rushed out of the room.
"Bernard, let's go to the adventurer's guild."
Soon, Lucas and Bernard started riding the two horses towards the adventurer's guild.
....
In Alverton firmament,
'Swoosh'
A portal opened as the knight in the golden armour along with the purple-robed young man walked out of it.
"Zeke, I am tired of this duty of ours to gather the young kids from all the firmaments. Why can't we request to change the duty from scouting the talents to entering the evil portals?"
The golden armoured knight complained about their work as he asked the purple-robed young man about changing it.
"Nicholas, stop complaining. We will get more rewards for this work. Moreover, we can become closer to these kids compared to those old fools back at the organization."
The purple-robed young man named Zeke lowered his hood as he replied to the Knight with a slight smile on his face.
"Sigh...you always say that but why do we need to become closer to them when they would be brainwashed to work for the organization by those old bastards anyway."
Nicolas shrugged as he looked at the young man
As for Zeke, he didn't reply; instead, he opened a round pendant around his neck and saw more than lights in it.
"You will know when the time comes."
Closing the pendent, Zeke replied to Nicholas with a slight smile on his face as he continued, "There are more than 10 kids in this firmament. Let's get to work."
As soon as he finished his words, Zeke turned around and walked towards the nearest town.
"Also, don't meddle with others' problems as you did in the Barren firmament."
Along the way, Zeke said a few more words to the knight in the golden armour.
'Sigh'
Hearing those words, Nicholas sighed as he looked at the box hanging on Zeke's back.
'I hope you can forget your families soon to suffer less pain.'
He muttered to himself looking at the box as he followed Zeke.
...
In the Barren firmament.
"Manager Rean, someone took Evan."
In the adventurer's guild, Lucas went to find Manager Rean and asked, "You control the teleportation portal to the other firmaments in this town, right?"
Even though Silverstone town is just a small town it is one of the busiest towns in the Barren firmament and people would come for the sake of Myriad primordial forest from the other firmaments. So, it had a teleportation center of its own managed by the adventurer's guild.
Since the kidnappers of his brother would need a teleportation portal to travel back to wherever they have come from, Lucas asked Manager Rean about it.
"What?"
Manager Rean was shocked by Lucas's starting words; however, he controlled his emotions before nodding to Lucas's question.
"So, can you check if someone is wearing a golden knight armour and purple-robed young man?"
"If they left, when did they leave and which firmament they left to."
Soon, Lucas described the clothing of the kidnappers as he asked whether Manager Rean could check if they left the firmament.
"Keep quiet and follow me."
Manager Rean nodded his head as he asked Lucas to follow him in silence.
"Manager Rean"
Soon, Manager Rean took Lucas to a seemingly ordinary stone house that was guarded by two knights who greeted him politely.
"Did you two see two men…."
Nodding his head, Manager Rean asked about Zeke and Nicolas.
"No one used the teleportation portal during the last one week, Manager Rean."
However, the two guards shook their heads.
"What?"
Lucas clenched his fists.
"Lucas, let's go."
Manager Rean brought Lucas to a secluded place before asking, "Did the Kidnappers leave anything behind?"
"Yes. It is a scroll saying that my brother is destined for something greater and they would train him."
Lucas said about the scroll and the matter in it to Manager Rean because he was the only one who he felt would help him in his current situation.
"Does it have a symbol like this?"
Manager Rean frowned when he heard Lucas' words as he drew the infinity symbol in the air and asked Lucas about it.
"Yes...yes. Do you know about that organization?"
Lucas became agitated as he hurriedly nodded his head.
"Lucas, you can't find your brother anymore. It is better to forget it and move on."
Manager Rean shook his head and asked Lucas to forget about Evan.
"What are you talking about? Why should I forget about him?"
Until now, Lucas was angry and spoke in a loud tone; however, after hearing Manager Rean's words, Lucas became furious; however, he didn't shout; instead, he asked Manager Rean in a low but cold voice as though he had turned into a completely different person.
