Chereads / MUSHOKU TENSEI: the beginning after the end / Chapter 99 - A battle is coming

Chapter 99 - A battle is coming

We have placed an arrest warrant for Nolan in every country around the world along with a reward of 100 gold coins to increase capture efforts.

I really don't know if this will be effective in any way since Hitogami could perfectly make Nolan go unnoticed in the world for his advice.

But it is better to find out for ourselves.

Also an idea occurred to me

-We need Kishirika's help to find Nolan- I said to Orsted as I was about to leave.

By this point it was almost 11pm, Sylphie, Nana and Lara returned home with Alek as an escort

While me and Orsted spend our time notifying all the kingdoms in the world about the arrest warrant for Nolan

-Hmm, I see what you mean... but do you think you can find her in time? According to what you say, she was captured by Atofe 3 days ago, she could already be far from Fort Necross- Orsted said.

-Yes...and that's why...that's why we need Atofe's help to find her, Kishirika can shorten our path to find Nolan quickly before he does something serious- I declared

Orsted looked at me for a few moments and then nodded.

-I understand your point of view, Do you plan to see her soon? - Orsted asked.

-Yes..but this time I will go alone, it seems that he likes me more than you and Alek himself- I murmured

-hmmm that's true, so when do you plan to go?- Orsted said

-Tomorrow if possible- I declared

-Okay, come first thing tomorrow morning so you can use the teleportation circle- Orsted said

..

And so I ended this busy day, it was not a pleasant day at all to start, we have a new enemy that the longer it is free the more havoc it will cause.

Also for some reason the guy has the support of the Sword Goddess Diana

Obviously we point her out as the second apostle

And now it was time to find out who the third apostle was.

And I already have my suspicions

First Nolan, then the Goddess of the sword and finally the king of The Kingdom of the Dragon King:Steevio ll

With this clarified we already had the 3 apostles in sight but with the last one we were in doubt.

But that doesn't mean we weren't cautious.

Besides...I'm too lazy to do this...For a long time I have just wanted to lie in my bed doing nothing for a whole day, but my duty and my pride as a man prevent me from doing so.

..

I returned home with heavy steps and entered

The lights in the living room and kitchen were naturally already off.

I checked the kitchen and there was a portion of food left for me.

I reheated it and ate it in silence while I was lost in my thoughts.

The more time passes, the more cautious Nolan will become and therefore the more difficult to capture...

Not even my own house is safe, they can attack while I'm asleep, they can attack one of my children... they can attack Roxy while she's at the university...

-No!,Cut those thoughts!- I said to myself

With Orsted and Alek here to protect them, nothing should happen....rigth?!..

After finishing my dinner I took a dip in my jacuzzi to relax even a little...

Miraculously a bath has always been something that helps me relax.

-one step at a time Rudeus...- I muttered to myself

Now let's review what you'll do...

You will go meet with Atofe and ask him for help to locate Kishirika and for her to help us to locate Nolan

Atofe...Now that I think about it... doesn't Atofe want me to get her pregnant?!

Shit! This is going to complicate everything...or maybe not?

Still I must accept your request if I want to have your support.

I got out of the bath, got dressed and went to my room.

Surprisingly my girls were each sleeping in their respective rooms so I would sleep alone today....

Not that it bothered me actually, I guess they must have thought I would come back later.

I lay back and stared into the darkness of my room.

I closed my eyes and....

(creak, creak, creak)

I opened my eyes immediately at the sound in my room

They sound like footsteps...

(creak, creak, creak)

There it is again!

I moved in bed pretending to be asleep and the footsteps stopped...

I opened one eye to see if I could see something but...no I couldn't see anything

Today was a cloudy night so it was completely dark....

But suddenly...

(unsheathing)

The sound of a sword being slowly unsheathed was emitted from my side.

Oh shit!

Instinctively I jumped out of bed and a shadow lunged at me.

Damn it's fast!

I tried to stop my attacker with gravity magic but he dissolved into particles and appeared right in front of me.

-what the f- I tried to say in total shock as my attacker kicked me in the solar plexus causing me to crash into a piece of furniture.

I crashed headlong into the closet, the sound of wood breaking accompanied by the sound of a mirror breaking echoed through the room.

I throw a stone bullet at my attacker but he deflects it with a water god style technique

Shit this thing is strong!!

This way of fighting, the way he moves... he looks like a spirit of Peragius! But why?!

The spirit lunged at me, I created a last-minute wall of dirt but the spirit cut through it like butter.

It crashed into me and sent me flying from the second to the first floor where I landed on a table.

Thank goodness the light was on so I had a full view of the spirit.

But the image gave me chills

The spirit reminded me completely of Hitogami!, a completely white and faceless being armed with nothing but a sword...

The spirit rushed at me at great speed.

Fireball, Sonic boom, gravity magic, nothing worked against that thing!

And then the worst happened...

-Rudy, what's going on!- Sylphie shouted as she left her room

-What the fuck?!- Roxy screamed as she grabbed her staff.

-Rudy, be careful!- Nana screamed and the spirit lunged at me.

I was barely able to avoid it by getting out of its way with a Sonic Boom

The damn thing crashed full on into the kitchen but without flinching it charged back at me.

-Water ball!- Roxy shouted as a huge ball of water was launched towards the spirit which didn't even flinch.

-Magic doesn't work on Rudy, be careful!- Nana shouted

-Don't come!- I yelled at them and with gravity magic I returned them to their rooms and sealed them with a wall of earth

-Dad! Take this!- Lara shouted as she threw me the sword she used for my training with Alek.

The spirit threw me a long sword of silence which I countered to my own surprise.

I threw my own long sword of silence at him, which the spirit countered in the same way.

Looks like I was evenly matched with this damn ghost!

A sword-specialized spirit with immunity to magic...well played Hitogami!

I threw another stone bullet at him which passed through him without causing any damage.

By this point Sylphie and Roxy had already broken through my stone wall and were walking down the steps.

The spirit noticed them and charged against them.

-Nooo!- I screamed as I pushed them out of the way with gravity magic but...

The sword hit Roxy's abdomen and destroyed half of her stomach.

I was shocked by the scene

-R-Roxy!!,- Sylphie shouted as she rushed to her and applied advanced level healing magic to her.

-It's not enough, the wound is very serious, Rudy! - Sylphie screamed in despair.

I ran towards Roxy but the spirit crashed into me sending me flying.

I could see the spirit charging towards Sylphie.

-don't you daaaareeeee!!-I screamed in anger, using a Sonic boom to propel myself and...

He cast a blade of light which split the spirit in half and dissolved it instantly.

Due to the momentum I crashed and fell into the yard, making a hole in the wall of the house.

But that didn't matter now.

I ran to Roxy who was on Sylphie's lap.

My teacher looked terrible, a piece of her abdomen was missing, with a pool of blood underneath her, she was pale and looked in the last stages of her life.

-Roxyyyy!!!- I screamed in despair as I began to chant healing magic.

-Rudy....- she looked at me with tears in her eyes

-no...nooo!!!, Resist my love!! May the great protection always be with your Angel, your son...No!!! It's too long!! - I screamed in despair

-Rudy....- Roxy murmured as tears ran down her eyes

I closed my eyes and silently cursed myself for not knowing how to heal.

-My love, please, please come back!!, don't come back!!!-I screamed as I tried to silently do healing magic...

..

..

I opened my eyes expecting the worst but received the astonished looks of my wives and daughter

I looked at Roxy and I could see how a green glow came out of my hands and Roxy's abdomen was regenerating.

Life returned to his eyes and he coughed up blood.

-sensei!!!- I shouted inconsolably while hugging her tightly

I stood there with Roxy in my arms as I cried tears of joy

I had saved my wife
