4 3 - A plan taken forward

"Ok, time to go back!" As Mickaila stood up from his position taking a sip of the healing liquid before storing it away in what seems like an inventory system which can be quite useful.

[just in case I run into any of these creatures again, I must make sure my HP is fully restored. I mean it's better being safer than sorry right!]

Looking around his surroundings, he searched for what may seem like an exit to this forest. Which wasn't easy to find since the rain last night washed out the majority of the footprints left by the men who carried him along with his own. After wandering around with his gut feeling, along with the compass within his phone, within an hour he finally reached the street with rabbit meat in one hand which was eaten along his way out whilst the other held onto the phone.

As soon as he saw the streets, he quickly ran towards it, in search of anyone that may be driving past and this time luck was on his side, a man who works as a local farmer was transporting some wheat to a factory that was near the outskirts of town and seeing how they were going the same direction, the old man was kind enough to give Mickaila a ride.

And after an hour of riding in the truck they were closing in on the factory but for Mickaila, his journey with the old man comes to an end, thanking him before he leaves the truck and was dropped off near a side road where it would only take him about another 20 minutes walk before reaching back to the Hades household.

After 20 minutes of walking he finally reached back home, that is if you can call this place a home. He went inside the house revealing his brother and sister cleaning up after themselves as they finished breakfast whilst their parents seem to have already left for work.

[I mean if I left the house for a week, my father or step-mother wouldn't even realise] which to be exact was the truth.

As Mickaila got inside to the living room, his brother looked at him shocked, "Oh, I guess your underlings haven't been doing a great job have they?" Mickaila said mockingly with a sly smile.

Whilst Rosalia quickly rushed towards Mickaila whose clothes were all ripped, checking his body but no injuries seems to have been sustained giving his sister a relieved sigh, "where have you been?" Rosalia asked angrily.

"Oh, nothing much. There was a childish person that got his **** stuck up head into someone else' business and I was somehow dragged into it leaving me to come back at such a time." Mikaila replied.

Mickaila once thought that as long as he stayed quiet and out of people's sight, not standing out then everything would be peaceful and easy going with no trouble or disputes however if he still kept up his pathetic act then one day it may actually kill him.

[I mean just look at Leohart who kidnapped me and tried feeding me to the wolves. He was damn freaking serious in killing me!]

[So I guess there was no point in keeping myself hidden anymore] he said to himself.

"Are you out of your damn mind, you could've at least phoned if you were going to stay out, haven't you heard the news that weird things have been happening around the world?" She asked annoyed.

[I guess that may have something to do with the monsters appearing out of nowhere or something to do with the government] he thought to himself but nevertheless pretended as if he didn't know.

"Sorry sis, I'll be careful next time." He said cheekily.

"Don't... there would never be a next time." She stared at Mickaila who just smiled, not answering her whilst Leohart had already stomped his way upstairs back to his room.

"So anyways, are you hungry?" Rosalia asked, Mickaila just shook his head, "no, sis but I need to speak to you about something." He said in a serious tone which was something Rosalia never seen.

They went upstairs and into his room, locking the doors ensuring no one was listening, "so why so secretively?" Rosalia asked.

"What do you need to speak to me about?" Rosalia asked further.

Mickaila looked at Rosalia with a serious expression plastered on his face, "I need to move out." He said

After closely listening to Mickalia's explanation for doing so, Rosalia reluctantly agreed, knowing how everyone treated him unfairly, knowing that he never felt safe on the premises, the better choice was to move out.

Well it was originally his plan to move out after he graduates however by then it'll already be too late, with monsters appearing, he wouldn't be able to concentrate on his training and studies whilst having the trouble to always be cautious of mischievous people who wanted to kill him at every step of the way. It'll be too much of a hassle.

"Good, you've made the right decision and regarding the place of stay, I have already bought a house that's at the outskirts. And since you're going there it's inappropriate to leave my brother all alone by himself so I'm coming with you." She smiled, making her mind up.

[That's even better for me, I would also have to tell her of what really happened last night and the reason why I didn't come home but let's wait till we move out first]

"So when are we moving" she asked, "Now" Mickaila simply said as he started packing.

"That's quick, but Ok I'll wait for you downstairs whilst I give dad a call about us moving out." Mickaila nodded whilst his sister made his way downstairs.

And as for Mickaila there wasn't really much that he needed to pack, he just got all the school materials he needed along with some clothes he had and other necessities before leaving his room.

Walking down the stairs with a suitcase in one hand, he sees his sister waiting outside with her car, ready to set off.

He went to the back of the car and put all his things inside before making his way to rear seat, looking out the window he sees his brother staring at him through his own bedroom, looking down at Mickaila with a disgusted and unhappy look but also quite satisfied with how Mickaila is finally leaving the Hades family household.

Happy that they don't have to live under the same roof which is to the liking of both the boys.

"Ready?" Rosalia asked, Mickaila nodded and with that she started the engine and drove off to their new destination.

After about a 40 minutes drive they finally arrived at their new residence, it was a beautiful looking building, one that you see on a fancy holiday somewhere nice for rich people. But for them it wasn't a holiday but a place they were actually going to live in.

Seeing how his plan has been taken forward, they quickly made their way inside, the interior of the house which was wondrous, despite the walls were all painted white, there were paintings and some nice antiques placed around the area along with some weapons and tools stored in hidden places around the building.

Well it was to be expected, the Hades family is well known for their army intelligence work, their father was a high ranking general working at the front lines whilst Mickaila, his brother and his sister all attend the Training Academy that trains students in becoming great soldiers or warriors for future use.

And as for his sister who already graduated, she has already started making a name for herself being the strongest soldier upon the new generation with extreme combat abilities and quick witted thinking when coming to planning, the highest trainee upon the military which was one of the reason she was feared by all well with Mickaila as the only exception.

He looked around noticing the kitchen was to the right of the entrance whilst the living room was linked to the kitchen, there was a large screen sticking out of the wall along with white sofas surrounding a desk in front of the screen.

Up the stairs, he sees 4 bedrooms with one already occupied by his sister whilst the other were empty, each room having its own bathroom which would be useful especially when they are desperate for the toilet. There was also a restroom downstairs which was bigger than the ones in each bedroom.

There were 2 more rooms, one seems like his sister's working office whilst the other seems like a mini living room with a tv screen at the front sticking out the wall along with desks and sofa around it just like the one downstairs.

[wow, this must be really expensive to build] Mickaila thought to himself amazed about how wealthy they truly are but then again he wouldn't know as he never got any money like his two siblings as he clearly wasn't liked by the family.

"Ok then, this is your room, mine is just next door. Put the stuff away and then we need to have a talk about what happened yesterday." Rosalia said as she exited his room leaving Mickaila dumbstruck at his spot.

[i guess she found out huh, oh well it's not like it's a secret or anything. ]

[whatever let's pack up first]

With everything put away, he took a deep breath and walked downstairs seeing his sister sitting on the sofa with her phone in her hands, spinning around when catching his presence, "Now then, sit." She said, which Mickaila just obliged and sat on the sofa next to her. "now speak." She commanded.

He looked at his sister who gave him a serious look, he gulped and started telling her of what happened last night leaving out the best for last.
