Chapter 206 Violet Moon Aftermath
"That'll be $83 sir", a woman said with a polite smile.
Edward snapped out of his daze before he takes his wallet out to pay, "Thank you", he said while giving the woman the money.
After giving the back the change, the woman bid Edward goodbye as he left the store.
Edward walks out of the store with a plastic bag in his hand, "Is this okay? What if they don't like sushi?", he mumbles with a frown.
"I'm sure they will like it", he said to himself before he left the place.
He's currently outside of Faraday University without Adhara beside him,
Edward is alone walking in a direction with sushi in his hand, the freshly made sushi can already be smelled making his mouth watery.
This is his favorite food, but this time it's not for him.
After walking for a while, Edward then stopped in front of a house.
He senses some people looking at him the moment he stopped in front of the house, and a smile blossoms on his face feeling this.
After a slight pause,
Edward knocked on the door lightly before the door opened revealing a man with sleek back grey hair, he's Rex's father, Robert.
"Edward?", he looks at Edward in surprise.
But then his surprise turns into a smile, "Come inside, My wife is in the living room"
Edward nodded his head and excused himself inside, he walks inside the house and saw Mrs. Greene watching tv.
She looks back before her eyes widen, "Edward! Why didn't you tell me you're coming"
"It's okay Mrs. Greene, I'm only here to visit and I brought sushi", he said while raising the plastic bag in his hand.
Mrs. Greene smiles before they move to the dining room just beside the living room.
Edward saw that the pool they're building before is almost complete, and it looks beautiful even though it's still wet in cement.
The three of them sat in the dining room as Mrs. Greene takes out the sushi.
"You don't need to bring us this, Sushi these days are booming and I'm sure it's crowded there", Mrs. Greene said as she prepared the plates.
Edward smiles politely before he replied, "The place is empty when I got there, bringing you guys food seems to be good luck"
Hearing this, Robert and Mrs. Greene chuckles lightly.
They then started eating while conversing with each other,
Because of the incident in Emham Forest before, Edward felt comfortable meeting with them and he also will bring them news of Rex.
Its not his first time visiting Rex's parents after Emham Forest,
Edward bringing both parents news about their son makes them happy, and it eases Mrs. Greene's mind.
"What's Rex up to now?", Mrs. Greene asks.
Edward's body stopped for a moment before he said, "He's out for a couple of days, it's almost a week now and he'll probably come back soon"
"Where did he go?", Robert asks in turn while sipping a coffee.
His gaze makes Edward hesitate for a moment, he then finally said, "There's a training conducted by the university, and he's a part of it"
Hearing this, both parents nodded their heads with a smile.
They all then got back to eating before Mrs. Greene suddenly asks a question that makes Edward's body froze, "How's Adhara then? Did she go with Rex too?"
This question makes Edward slightly widen his eyes as he looks down,
He remembered the scene last night that kept him awake, it was still clear in his mind.
Last night,
Edward is running around the university searching for Kyran,
Because of Kyran's feat in the training ground, many students recognize him as the kid that the top-ranker Rex brought.
So everyone knows who Kyran is,
But even after asking the students all over the university, Edward can't find Kyran anywhere.
Even Ari didn't know where he went, he only said that he saw Kyran leaving the room with the butler and he didn't know where he went.
This makes Edward frustrated as he told Ari to guard the room.
He was about to give up and went back to the room to inform Adhara, he went out of the Gem of Knowledge building, the last building he checked
But then, his body stopped when he heard some rustling noise from the garden.
Edward walks closer to the garden inspecting the noise, but the closer he gets the more shocked he becomes.
The noise that came from the garden is moaning sounds,
"Aaahh!"
"Aaahh!"
"Right there, do it more!"
Hearing these sounds, Edward shakes his head.
He can't believe that someone is doing it in the garden, they're lucky that no one notice them with how much sound the woman was making.
Edward then turns back to the university before his steps stop,
"Kyran! Be gentler please"
The name the woman said amidst her moan makes Edward widen his eyes in shock, he then scurries towards the garden before his body is frozen in still dismayed.
What he saw greatly surprised him,
Never in his wildest dream that Kyran has the guts to do this.
In front of him, Kyran is clamping on a woman that he saw during Kyran leaving his room.
It is Lisa! She's the woman that showed Kyran around the university.
He will stop Kyran right away if the woman is forcing herself on Kyran or even the other way around because Kyran is still just a teen.
But there's no force in this act, Lisa is moaning happily as Kyran does his thing.
Sensing that someone is watching him, Kyran turns his head towards Edward who is still dismayed by the scene in front of him.
Edward saw Kyran is glaring at him,
He then snapped out of his daze and found that Kyran's eyes are violet, "Kyran, Are... Are you okay?"
Hearing another voice, Lisa looks towards Edward in shock.
She wanted to cover herself up but Kyran didn't let her, "Leave me alone!", Kyran shouted fiercely making Edward frowns.
After shouting that, Kyran resumes his intercourse with Lisa.
Edward hesitated for a moment, but seeing Lisa's embarrassed face he then left the garden.
His mind is jumbled because of the scene he saw, he kept frowning all the way until he reaches back to Rex's room.
Arriving at the room, "RAARGGH!!!"
"Get water and a towel!! Right now!!"
"Miss Adhara, What's wrong you can talk to me"
Hearing the commotion inside the room, Edward enters the room hurriedly and found the maids are scattering around panicky
Painful screams can be heard from the room where Adhara is,
Edward looks around with light steps,
He approaches Adhara's room with light steps, maids bump into him a couple of times but his mind is filled with another matter.
After reaching in front of Adhara's room, Edward peeked inside the room.
His eyes widen seeing the messed up room,
The wallpaper on the wall is ripped, the tables inside the room are broken and scattered, and chaos filled the room as Adhara wails in pain on the bed.
But upon seeing Adhara's condition, Edward becomes even more shocked.
Adhara's clothes are tattered as blood covered her from head to toe, she's clawing the middle of her chest as if it will ease the pain she's experiencing.
She's screaming on top of her lungs while the butler and maids try to calm her down.
The painful expression on her face can make one feel how painful she's currently in, and if the butler didn't hold her hand then she will already claw her heart out.
But something caught Edward's eyes,
Amidst Adhara's screams and wails, he saw Adhara's eyes are violet just like Kyran.
This makes Edward stop his steps right beside the door, he then turns his body around and walks towards the entrance of the room.
Edward then stop his steps as he looks to the window,
The blazing violet moon shone down from the sky like the devil's eyes, it illuminate Edward's face with a slight violet contrast.
He then looks down to his feet with a frown,
The event that occurs tonight greatly shocks him, his mind can't cope with this shock.
But then, "CALL THE DOCTOR!! We can't let ms. Adhara keep doing this!", the butler shouted.
Hearing this butler's command, Clarice runs out of Adhara's room heading towards the entrance to call for the doctor.
She's scurrying towards the entrance when suddenly Edward stopped her.
"Don't call the doctor, Rex instruct me to handle the situation", Edward said softly.
He then walks inside the room where Adhara's in, "All of you! Get out of the room and let me handle this"
Hearing Edward's command, the butler glance at him in doubt.
Even him who is trained to be an Awakened butler finds it difficult to restrain Adhara, much less Edward who is only a student.
Seeing the butler's doubt, Edward then added, "I'm instructed by Rex to handle this"
Hearing Rex's name has been brought, the butler then let go of Adhara and left the room reluctantly.
"If something happened to ms. Adhara, you'll be at fault", the butler said right before he left the room.
Bam!
The door is closed shut by the butler,
Edward takes a huge breath as he looks at Adhara who is already calming down, she passed out from the amount of blood she has lost.
He then approaches Adhara before he kneels beside her,
Adhara's breathing becomes steady as the light injuries all over her body get healed, she now looks peaceful than the chaos before.
Edward stretches out his trembling fingers and lifts Adhara's eyelids,
He saw her eyes are still blazing violet before he hurriedly closed them again in fright.
Edward then looks down as tears fall down from his eyes, he started sobbing right beside Adhara who is breathing steadily.
After a few minutes of sobbing,
Edward stands up with a darkened look, he's a mess right now.
Swoosh!!
Fire Mana started to gather on his hand as a sizzling fire blazes his hand in red,
He looks at Adhara on the bed with a troubled expression,
After calming himself down and taking a huge breath, Edward stretches out his blazing fire hand towards Adhara's neck.
Before suddenly, "Edward?"
"Huh?", Edward snapped out of his daze and found Robert and Mrs. Greene are looking at him.
He realizes that he just dozes off, "Are you okay Edward? Do you want to go to the doctor to do a checkup?", Mrs. Greene said worriedly.
"Oh, No I'm fine Mrs. Greene. Adhara is also well, you don't have to worry", he said with a smile.
But just as they're talking,
"Breaking News!"
"Benrith City has been attacked by demons last night!"
"After the incident that graves us in Lupis City that has now turned into a Demonic City, Benrith City also follows right after"
The tv news broadcasted the incident in Benrith City,
Because of Edward's sudden arrival, Mrs. Greene forgot to turn the tv off as it plays as a background during their conversation.
Mrs. Greene then said ignoring the news, "Ask her to come next time, we'll be happy if she comes", she didn't forget to elbow Robert on his stomach.
"Yeah, That'll be great if Adhara can visit us once in a while", Robert added.
Edward can only nod his head with an awkward smile,
But then,
"The rising star Rex Silverstar, that just transferred in Faraday University is also got involved in this incident"
"We have a survivor with us here from Benrith City that claims to saw Rex in action"
"Can you tell us what exactly happened there, Sir?"
Hearing Rex's name,
Robert, Mrs. Greene, and Edward look at each other before the three of them hurriedly go to the living room to watch the news.
Their eyes are glued to the tv in worry,
"That night I'm on a train back to Ratmawati City with Rex, all of the passengers know that Rex is inside the train because he came to the station as a Zeragon"
The newsreader is quite shocked by the statement, but she signals for the man to continue.
"Everything is fine but then, our train got hit by a blue demon that knock the train off of the rail. After I recover from the hit, I climb out and saw Rex fighting the blue demons and he shouted to us to run while he buy us time"
Hearing this, the newsreader signal the man to continue.
"He slaughtered many blue demons and buy us time to escape, but the arrival of the winged demon that gives off an entirely different vibe changed the battle"
"With the winged demon arrival, Rex was forced to retreat and some of us got left behind"
The newsreader then asks, "What happened to Rex? Did he manage to flee the winged demon?"
"Yes, he manages to run away. But not without a cost, his right arm is badly injured and he passes out after carrying a woman"
Watching this news, Mrs. Greene and Robert went pale.
They heard that Rex is injured and as parents this devastated them, Mrs. Greene started to cry on Robert's chest.
After getting the story from the man, the newsreader then said, "We have footage of the survivors here. The footage is shaky, but it deciphers the situation clearly"
Then, the news played shaky footage inside an abandoned building.
The footage shows people shivering in fear as they all rest inside the abandoned building.
All of the survivors are shivering, and amidst the crowd, the footage shows a bonfire in the middle of the group before the footage ended.
After the footage ended, the news resume back.
Mrs. Greene and Robert are still shocked by the news,
While Edward on the side looks down in thought,
Although the footage is shaky he somewhat saw Rex beside the bonfire unconscious on a woman's lap right on the end of the footage.
It's just a slight scene but Edward notices it, he frowns as he thought of a girl, "Is that?"
