After exiting the cave, Cain was back in the forest, it was currently daytime and the lush forest which seemed to radiate life was awake
'I should probably wait until night, if I leave now I might be discovered by some elves'
With nothing to do Cain started practicing his sword art, swinging the sword repeatedly Cain kept training till he got tired
Laying on the floor sweating, Cain was tired he had spent the whole afternoon training and felt like he was finally on the verge of a breakthrough
'I really need a new weapon, this weapon isn't good enough for me to be able to bring up all my strength'
A weapons durability and effects were very important, having a weapon which is an artifact could be the difference between lidlfe and death, The truth is when utilizing his current weapon Cain couldn't bring out all his strength as when he used the Galaxy sword Art his weapon could not handle the strength so he had to decrease his power outage so that the sword would not shatter
'I mean the swords the academy provides are good, but it won't be able to handle the full strength of the Galaxy Sword Art'
Realising that the sun was setting, Cain got ready to depart, just like the previous day no beast had come to attack him so Cain was not worried about being eaten
'After this incident can I keep avoiding the main characters?, by this point in time I don't think they will leave me alone, and if we bring Sarah back I'm sure she will try to be friends again'
'But wow, Sarah was beautiful, this was my first time seeing her in her original form, I thought I was used to seeing beauties after seeing the main characters, yet when I saw Sarah my heart skipped a beat'
As the sky darkened Cain was already standing outside the forest

(somewhere else)
"Haha... She will finally be mine, after rejecting me for so many years I will now finally be able to taste her, I can't wait to have my way with her"
A boy was shouting as he excitedly awaited hus wedding day
"You will pay for the humiliation you put me through Sarah"
The boy shouting currently was Ryan Von August, the son of Duke Ramian Von August and Sarah's soon to be husband
He had tried to get together with Sarah many times in the past, yet she always rejected him, as she was the princess he couldn't do anything to her so he just kept on trying again and again, yet she always rejected him
But when Sarah's parents died, Sarah's uncle immediately allowed him to marry her
Ryan was a playboy using his status as the dukes son he always got everything he wanted, women, Money, cars you name it, so when he finally found someone who didn't want him he was angry
"Only a few more days, then you will be in my bed screaming my name" Ryan said as a smile creeped onto his face
Ryan was by no means ugly, he was actually very handsome at least way better looking than Cain, and was considered a prodigy, though most elves used the bow he had no talent in it so he chose the great sword, and that's where his power greatly grew he was a 19 year old who was at C+ rank and ready to breakthrough soon, this alone made him known as a prodigy

Arriving at the mansion Cain was greeted by a scene he did not expect, the mansion was gone, there was rubble everywhere as what seemed like remnants of a battle were all around him
'No, no, no, no now what?, nothing is going as planned at all, first I had to relive my trauma now this, I should have known something would go wrong if I brought those trouble magnets, I really should not have brought the main characters with me'
Looking around Cain was stumped on what to do next, he had no idea where the others were taken or if they managed to escape
'Shit, shit, shit, I need to contact Sarah she might know what is happening'
With that thought Cain started dashing in the direction of the mansion
Using [Blink] Cain managed to safely enter the mansion without anyone noticing
Yet when he entered the room it was empty, Sarah wasn't at the mansion
'Now what? Sarah is not here and all her things seem to be gone so I can take it that she won't return'
While Cain was in a dilemma, someone opened the room door
Startled Cain was ready to use [Blink] to escape, yet before he could he heard Arianna voice
"No wait, Sarah sent me she knew you would come here after you noticed everything" Arianna said
Noticing it was Arianna, Cain asked her what happened so she explained
"It seems the king had a spy within the Marquis Heart household as immediately after Leo and the others got there he sent soldiers to go capture the Marquis and the others, the Marquis is currently going to be put on trial for harboring humans, after she found out Sarah immediately returned to the castle to ensure your friends and the marquis weren't harmed"
'Fuck, now what?'
"After that Sarah ordered me to look for you and inform you" Arianna explained as she also looked confused about the situation
"So what's the plan, Knight" Arianna said as she looked at Cain expectantly
