" I... remember..." Arthurs says as his eyes begin to shut and he collapses to the ground.
The gate began to crumble when we see a pair of legs walk up towards Arthur.
Arthur wakes up in a room unfamiliar to him.
He sits up and a maid walks in with a saucer holding a cup of tea.
"Ohh...Good day sir" She says as she proceeds to drop the tea on a small stool beside the bed.
"The family head has been waiting, I'll be right back sir." She says as she leaves the room.
Arthur sits at the side of the bed when an elderly man with complete grey hair, about 5 foot '5 inches tall in a black tuxedo walk in majestically with his hands behind his back.
"How are you feeling Arthur?"
"Ummm, I'm fine thank you sir...do I know you?"
"Well you do, yet you don't...
You would most likely know me as the Binary College Head, Berus Vander"
"Ohhh... That's nice and all but I should probably be back to my place, oh and thanks for getting me out of the gate" Arthur says indifferently.
"Hmmm... how did he know I was the one that took him out" Berus thinks to himself.
"There's no need for that, your parents are on their way here". Berus tells him as he tries to stop him from leaving.
"Ohhh, ok then" Arthur says as he lies back unto the bed on his back with his hands folded and closes his eyes.
"Hmmmm..." Berus says as he turns and leaves.
Two minute after he left a knock is heard and the door creaks open as we see Bellion peeps a little before coming in.
Arthur watches as Flaire follows in from behind fidgeting.
They exchange a few greetings.
"Thanks for helping us out of that predicament Arthur" Bellion says.
"I... I apologi... I'm sorry for placing us in that predicament" Flaire apologizes as she bows her head.
"It's cool as long as no one died, isn't it?
Don't worry about it." Arthur says.
"How are you guys though..." Arthur asks.
Just then Claire burst in out of breath.
"Why...Why didn't.. you guys...tell me...Arthur was here?"
"Well you have been holed up in your room for two days saying you were researching something" Bellion replies.
"Hey there Claire" Arthur says with a little smile.
"Ho...how are you doing Arthur?"
"I'm fine thank you.
Seems I have to intrude on your space for a while."
"We don't mind!" The three yell out.
This causes an awkward atmosphere.
"What are you guys doing here" A man's voice comes from behind the door as it opens and the Association President alongside Arthur's parents walk in.
Arthur smiles as he sees his parents and Aurora behind them.
"Hey there..." Aeriel says to Arthur.
"Hello mum and dad, I'm sorry for making you worry so much" Arthurs replies with a smile.
Aurora is moved hearing Arthur call her mum and Oliver just smiles.
Benimaru, the Association President takes the children out of the room, leaving Arthur and his family.
Aurora jumps on Arthur on the bed.
"Why do you keep getting into dangerous situations without me" She complains.
"Hahaha...you do know you are no longer a child right? You can't keep jumping on me like that except you are trying to crush me." Arthur tells Aurora with a smile while patting her head.
" I'll jump unto you whenever I want and nobody's gonna stop me" Aurora replies as she glares at Arthur.
"Ok ok, I'm sorry ma, I understand." Arthur surrenders with a smile as he continues to pat Aurora.
"Hey, ummm... I'm sorry for all that, it was all just you know kinda off.
You guys are my parents, we will always be family and I love you all so much, I'm sorry" Arthur says to his parents as Aurora looks at them confused.
Aeriel and Oliver come closer to seat beside Arthur on the bed.
" You hoping you could escape punishment by saying all that?" Aeriel says with a smile.
Arthur giggles a little.
"And to think you cleared a B-Rank-high gate alone, I guess you are my son after all" Oliver says as they all laugh.
Arthur goes out with his sister and the little Vanders to tour their large home.
Oliver and Aurora sit together in the living room alongside Berus who is sitting and Benimaru who stands beside him.
"I'm pretty sure you guys are aware of the gate mishap that happened recently, in which our children were involved in" Berus says.
"According to the Association President here, that's is not the only abnormal happenings in gates of recent"
"Apparently gates of B and A-Rank have been appearing more frequently without any prior warning and abnormalities always occur within those gates, for example, isolation of some people like Wat happened to the instructors or abnormal increase in strength of the monsters"
"To clear this gates we would need a lot of man power, there are not enough A and S ranks to administer to all these gates we..."
"...Are not interested" Oliver cuts him off.
"What?" Benimaru ask in confusion.
"As you heard we are not interested" Aeriel replies as they both stand up to leave.
"You do realize the intensity of this situation right?" Berus says.
"So?.. I mean for what reason should we care" Oliver replies.
"I know you are doing this because of your family but you do know the lives of your children are also at risk right?"
"Dont worry, we'll protect them besides, they are strong enough to take care of themselves"
"The lives of so many people are at stake and you refuse to help just because of your children!?" Benimaru yells out.
Aeriel turns her head to glare at Benimaru and this immediately brings him to his knees smashing the ground below him, the whole building begins to vibrate and some pillars collapse causing some floors to come crashing down.
Oliver places his hand on her shoulder and she immediately calms down stopping the chaos.
Benimaru is still on his knees bleeding from his nose as Berus heaves a sigh and speaks.
"Sigh... I apologize on behalf of my son, he's still a little immature, to show my sincerity I'll give you both a little info.
Remember the cult you guys wiped out?
Their activities have been sighted in recent times so we assume they are back again so try to be more careful"
"Thank you old man" Olivers says as they leave.
"That was dumb of you" Berus says to Benimaru who tries to get up.
"Yhhhhh I know" Benimaru replies as he heaves a long sigh.
"Seems like we need some reconstruction"
