77 Rain 1

Hades, the master of Grimoire Heart, sat on his throne, tapping his fingers, and frowned.

"Have you received any information about Zancrow and Kain?"

When this question was being asked, everyone turned silent since they knew Hade's mood was very irritable at this moment.

Hades took a deep breath and calmed himself. He was 100 years old and knew that being angry would be bad for his health.

"First, Ultear, then Zancrow and Kain..." Hades took a deep breath and said, "We need to find out who has defeated them."

"Hades-sama."

Hades looked at one of his subordinates and asked, "What's wrong, Rustyrose?"

"I had come to the town where Zancrow and Kain were raiding before." Rustyrose pushed the frame of his glasses and said, "From what I can tell they were facing a magician from the Magic Council, and their enemy should be an ice magician," Rustyrose said.

"Ice magician?"

Hades raised his eyebrow and asked, "Does the Magic Council have a powerful Ice Magician?"

"If I'm not wrong, there is a new member of the Ten Saints Wizards who has mastered ice magic... If I'm not wrong, that person should be the hero of the Land of Isvan, the one who has defeated Deliora," Rustyrose said.

"Hero?"

One of the members of Seven Kin of Purgatory raised his eyebrow.

"Ten Saints Wizards..." Hades frowned since he thought the problem was more troublesome than he had thought. "Is Kain and Zancrow being caught by the Magic Council?"

"....."

Rustyrose was silent and couldn't answer Hades's question since he didn't know where Kain and Zancrow were, but in his opinion, both of them had lost their lives since he hadn't heard news about both of them being put into jail.

Rustyrose had bought "The Sun" which was in the most circulation newspaper in the continent. The reason why he bought this newspaper was because there was a lot of important information and there was also a lot of things which related to the Magic Council.

Magic Council also used "The Sun" to report their deeds to the world so the people in the continent could revere this organization.

If the Magic Council had caught Zancrow and Kain then without doubt, "The Sun" would have announced this matter to the public.

But Rustyrose didn't see anything which meant that Zancrow and Kain had escaped or both of them died fighting against the member of Ten Saints Wizards.

"....."

No one said anything and was awaiting Hades's decision.

"Just cross out Zancrow and Kain's name, they should have lost their lives fighting against this Ten Saints Wizards or hero of the Land of Isvan or whatever....." Hades's expression became gloomy and said, "Our purpose has been the same and we're going to get The One Magic to achieve paradise."

Everyone who had heard Hades's words, had this longing expression on their eyes.

"But we can't let the Magic Council be happy with this...."

Hades's eyes became cruel and said, "We have to show why we're called the strongest Dark Guild in this continent."

Everyone smiled and showed their bloodthirsty expressions. They knew very well that they were about to start chaos on this continent.

After they had eaten breakfast, Bourne and Ur went out to have a date, leaving both Ultear and Meredy.

Ultear taught Meredy since she wanted to teach Meredy to become one of the helpers in this household. Their family business grew at a very fast speed and she had always wanted to have someone that she could trust to manage it and also fought against their enemies.

Luckily, Bourne had picked up Meredy because Ultear didn't need to wait for the birth of her children in the future to help manage the business.

Ultear knew that Meredy's history was clean and it seemed that this little girl also made a good impression on Bourne which was a plus score on her heart since she knew how wary Bourne was toward strangers. Though, being a female was also something which made Meredy able to be accepted quickly.

"Alright, I'll start to teach you how to read first," Ultear said.

Meredy nodded and looked at Ultear with a serious expression since she wanted to help everyone in this house as soon as possible.

Ur and Bourne walked together side by side, holding hands.

Ur smiled then stared at Bourne, who was taller than her. She didn't expect that he had grown so big in a moment. She still remembered that he had only reached her waist, but this time, he was taller than her.

"What's wrong, Ur?" Bourne asked.

"N, nothing..." Ur blushed, shaking her head, and had to admit that he became even more handsome. Thinking about the female model in the Sorcerer Magazine, she sighed when she thought that this guy was so popular and at the same time, she didn't expect that he quickly became one of the richest men in this continent.

Bourne was glad that the media at that moment wasn't that powerful so his name wasn't that popular. Some people might know him, but for normal people, no one really knew that he was one of the richest people in this continent.

Though, Bourne was glad since if someone really knew that it would be troublesome for him to go out on a date with Ur like this.

Bourne had to admit that the date on this world was pretty simple since there wasn't a movie theatre, arcade, pingpong, billiards, etc. The only thing he could do with Ur was to talk to each other, shop, eat at a restaurant, and visit various places.

Bourne might have said that there weren't a lot of things, but he really enjoyed his time with Ur. Looking at Ur, he said, "Ur, how about we visit that clothes store?"

"Hmm?" Ur followed his gaze and asked, "Do you want to buy something?"

"Yes."

Bourne thought that it was time and entered the clothes store with Ur. He didn't leave her like what he did in the past and he quickly found a perfect jacket for her since she still often wore the jacket which he had bought in the past. He was happy about it, but at the same time, it started to get worn out. He picked one that seemed to be her style and brought it to Ur.

"Ur, how about this jacket? Do you like it?"

"..."

Ur looked at Bourne at this moment and she couldn't help but remember their past. She remembered when both of them were living together at that time and when he had gotten his first money, he bought her a jacket for her. That jacket had been tattered since her fight with Deliora in the past, but she didn't care and fixed it herself. Looking at his smile at this moment, she remembered why she fell in love with him, but at the same time, when she thought about her daughter.

But then Ur smiled and took off her jacket, before throwing it at Bourne.

Bourne was speechless and caught the jacket.

Ur wore the new jacket and asked, "How is it?"

Bourne gave Ur a thumbs up and said, "Beautiful."

Ur smiled happily and hugged him at this moment since she really loved this moment.

Bourne bought the jacket and went out to continue their date, but then it started to rain. He frowned since it was a natural rain.

"Did you do it?" Ur asked.

Shaking his head, Bourne said, "No. It's natural."

Ur nodded and said, "Then, let's pick a shelter."

Bourne nodded and went to the nearby shelter while holding her hand.

Running to the shelter, their clothes were wet from the rain, but they didn't feel cold since they were ice magicians.

The rain became harder and the street became deserted quickly.

Within this shelter, only Bourne and Ur stood next to each other.

Bourne loved water, but he hated it when it disturbed his date with Ur. However, he also made a principle to not cause a disturbance on nature itself, when it was raining then he would let it rain even if it disturbed his date with Ur. He quickly dried his clothes with his heat magic and asked, "Ur, do you want me to dry your clothes?"

"..."

However, Ur didn't answer him.

Bourne frowned, but then he saw that Ur seemed to have an expression that made up her on something.

"Bourne... why don't you leave me and marry Tear?" Ur said while looking at Bourne with a serious expression.

"....."
