Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: Grief

After hearing what had transpired to the territory of his sworn brother, Earl Garen started the preparation to aide Earl Blaire in the predicament he had been facing in his territory, Schild City.

Currently, Belle and Kraftvoll were planning to start their journey to the royal capital immediately. The reason for their haste was because the enemies might figure out that they are in the manor of House York.

"My younger brother, Ross de York, is the one I assigned to escort you two to the royal capital. After reaching Stolz City, you must immediately meet with His Majesty, the King, to report the events that transpired in your hometown." Earl Garen commanded. "As you command, Your Lordship!" Kraftvoll responded in agreement.

A man with a similar face of the Earl came in. "Eldest brother, you called for me?" asked the person who just went in.

"The second brother, escort these two to the royal capital. Prepare immediately! Don't waste any time." Earl Garen commanded. "Understood, eldest brother. Then I'll excuse myself." Ross replied. Earl Garen nodded and turned his gaze to the two, "Follow him."

After hearing this, the two kids nodded and went with Ross to prepare for their journey.

Earl Garen chose him as the escort of the because he's the second most powerful seishin practitioner that was currently in Yorkshire City after the Earl.

After a few hours, all preparations were finished.

They started their journey immediately. They couldn't afford to waste any time in this territory.

Kraftvoll and Belle were placed in a separated carriage while Ross was riding the carriage behind them to assure that they were safe during the travel.

After Kraftvoll lost his parents, he was planning to train under his master until he is able to do the revenge himself. That's the general idea that Kraftvoll was planning in the future.

Kraftvoll's mind right now was full of rage and thoughts of revenge. At the same, the feeling of anguish burdened his heart awfully.

All of these feelings can be seen in Kraftvoll's face, which is why Belle got extremely worried about him. "Kraftvoll, what happened to you back in Schild City?"

Kraftvoll's expression suddenly went terribly ugly. Tears start gushing from his eyes. "Belle. My.. My pa.. parents.." Kraftvoll said while sobbing heavily.

Belle suddenly realized that something bad probably happened to them since he was not with them here on this journey.

In this situation, all she can do was to hug Kraftvoll to comfort him.

When Belle hugged Kraftvoll, he started wailing like there's no tomorrow. He was not able to do this in the past couple of days because he prioritized safety as the fulfillment of his parents' last wish for him.

"We're still here with you, me, Ouryuu, and Azari. We will never leave you alone," said Belle to comfort Kraftvoll.

The crying went for hours until Kraftvoll regained his usual composure.

As he wiped the remaining tears in his face, he smiled to Belle and he expressed his deep gratitude toward her, "Thank you very much, Belle."

After hearing this, Belle blushed a little and said, "I don't want my rival to feel down because I want to beat you at your best." This remark made Kraftvoll laugh a little bit.

All this time, Kraftvoll was greatly burdened by the suppressed feelings inside him but when he was able to cry it out, this burden lightened even for a little bit.

After traveling for a few days, they reached the city neighboring the Yorkshire City territory, named Hampshire City.

They went here for a little bit to report what happened to Schild city. The Earl here, Earl Alfonso le Artois, was also one of Earl Blaire and Earl Garen's sworn brothers which was why they were sure that he will help surely in this matter.

After reporting for a little bit, they immediately continued their journey.

They cannot waste any more time idling in Hampshire City because the Dark Alliance might be able to point out their whereabouts.
