Lucky 350

Calix was protected by the Battlesuit and ready to fight. But Berto just stood there and looked at him calmly.

"You know you will lose if you fight me."

"You'll never know if you don't try."

The two stared at each other. If the fight happened, this village could be affected and people could be hurt.

In the end, the two were mature enough to understand the consequences. Calix dropped his weapon and Berto accepted his gesture.

"I know you're not part of the Council of Torment. We found the body of Minokawa in the deepest floor. We confirmed that you were transported there by accident. However, it's true that you stole something from the Ancient Library."

The cameras did not work because the Council of Torment had infiltrated the Ancient Library. However, the University has brilliant detectives. They figured out Calix's real situation -- he was just caught up in the problem, but he was innocent. Except for the fact that he stole a treasure from the library.

"Bring it back and this will be over."

Berto held out his hand. He didn't want to punish this man because he was related to him by blood. Besides, Calix had killed the followers of the Council of Torment in the Ancient Library. So Berto respected him for that.

"About the treasure... I can't return it anymore."

The cat on his head still slept peacefully. Even though the tension was quite suffocating.

"I'm not asking, I want you to give it to me."

His gaze became darker and heavier. From this distance, Berto could summon hell and burn Calix to ashes.

"I guess I have no choice."

"Nyah~"

He sighed and placed the kitten on his uncle's hand. Mera opened his eyes for a second before returning to his slumber. He preferred to sleep in the sunlight.

"Do you think I'm joking?"

Veins appeared on his forehead and Berto became angry.

"Why are you giving me a cat?

"That's what you're asking."

Calix replied. He was a little sad that Mera would be taken away. However, Calix understood the truth that he had stolen the cat. Berto had the right to take it back.

'I'll miss you, Mera.'

The cat still called him Daddy... And Calix's heart was breaking.

"This? Cat?"

Berto clicked his tongue and handed the sleeping cat back to Calix. He felt that his nephew was joking with him and it was disrespectful.

"Never mind, the egg is not fertilized and it can't hatch."

'... Did they not see the eggshells? Did the eggshells melt or something?'

There should be eggshells left in the deepest floor after Mera hatched. Yet it seemed that Berto and the others never saw them. Perhaps the eggshells had indeed melted.

"You... How's your father?"

"Huh?"

Calix tilted his head, confused.

"Tch, I'm talking about your father, Andreas Romoel."

"..."

Calix closed his mouth and his whole attitude changed.

"You can't hide it from me. I know your identity-"

Right before Berto could finish his sentence, Calix immediately dropped a smoke bomb. The whole place was filled with smoke.

"This bastard--!"

Berto summoned Hell and extinguished the smoke. But when the place became clear, Berto realized that Calix was already gone.

"This is the second time he escaped from me! Damn it! I should have taken him to the Back rooms!"

It seemed that even an experienced soldier like Berto Alb could lose.

"And I have never seen his real face! He knows me, but I don't know him! What is this unfortunate situation?"

The man's face was covered with bangs. Berto had no idea where to find him.

"Clara, your son is a pain in the ass, just like you."

He sighed in defeat. At least Berto confirmed something, his nephew didn't have bad intentions. He could not feel the hostility in him.

A few hundred meters away from Berto, Calix's tense body shook.

"It's a good thing I'm wearing a battle suit, otherwise it would be impossible to escape from him."

Calix breathed heavily and leaned against the tree. In a brief moment, he threw a smoke grenade, he sprinted and ran away. Facing Berto Alb was bad for him.

"I'm not stupid and I know my abilities."

Running away from danger was always the best solution. Fighting would only make it worse.

He looked around and confirmed that Berto did not follow him this time.

"I'm safe this time, since he didn't know my true appearance. However, I have to stop using my emo face. Maybe I will try to grow a beard and act like an athlete, I have muscles anyway.

Meeting his maternal family was quite climatic and exhausting. Today he learned a lot of things and he is slowly processing them.

...

...

...

The long week's vacation ended and Calix returned to Horvart University. He had learned a few things, and one of them caught his attention.

"As expected, I can't find it on the Internet."

He searched on the Internet. But he could not find anything about the Sacred World Tree. As if it was not an important part of Elven history.

"It was as if someone had erased the history of World Tree.

Of all the people he asked, only two knew about World Tree.

The first was his grandmother, and the second was an old man suffering from dementia... And to be honest, Calix wondered if this 'World Tree' was even a real thing.

"However, my gut tells me that this thing is important. Maybe I need to talk to Esmeralda when she visits."

The week was eventful, and Calix successfully grew stubble on his chin.

"Well, I guess this mission will not be completed this year. I need more clues."

The search for a certain Dark Elf was still ongoing. Since his mission was ongoing, he had to keep his cover as a college student.

He stepped into the hallway, unaware that someone was in front of him. The two collided and Calix's shoulder accidentally touched the woman's breasts. The woman fell to the floor.

"Ugh-- Who in their right mind would do that to me!"

The woman grumbled. She glared at him and straightened her dress.

"Oh, I'm sorry--"

Calix stopped when he realized that the woman he had bumped into had nine tails...

Then he looked around and noticed that almost all the men in the hallway were staring at him coldly.

"Tch, fucking bastard, he bumped Shoujo's tits!"

"What a lucky guy!"

"Kill him!"

"I want to feel some tits too!"

They were mad.
