Prologue Part 3

His parents went to inquire more details about their son at Spring City Junior Academy. As they made they're way there, the academy called to inform them of his missing. They told the principal that they are coming and they want an explanation of what happened there or else. The principal could feel the killing intent from them, causing him to sweat bullets. He knows who they really are and that making them mad is the same as committing suicide.

When the family of three got there people were moving around in a disorderly fashion, because of a student going missing while accompanied by some S rank instructors and adventure parties. Since they went to a low level dungeon people were even more confused and worried about how something like that happened. While all this was going on a young handsome green hair tall man walked up to the family of three when he saw them and said.

Mom, Dad, Lyn, what's going on, how come as soon as I got back I heard something about a kid going missing under a bunch of S rank instructors and adventurers noses in a low level dungeon. And to make it worse when I heard the kid's name I almost turned the guild to ashes.

So what happened. (???)

Ron lower your tone and that's what we came to find out about, now let's go. (Will)

Ah yes sir (Ron)

He is their oldest son William the Fifth or Ron as they called him. They also had twin daughters who attend Spring City Elementary School. As the four made their way towards the principal's office. They saw many parents and guardians were here because some of their kids were injured by monsters that weren't suppose to be there so they wanted an explanation on how their kids got hurt if they had S rankers supervisioning them. 

 We demand to hear an explanation on how our kids got hurt when there were suppose to be S rankers around (???)

Yeah how come even when they're there they couldn't even protect our kids like they were suppose to huh. (???)

Tell us now (???)

Yes Principal Ligner (???)

Since the Academy was one of the best in the city, there were also big shots whose kids attend here and those kids were also injured. Now they are fuming with anger and fussing at the people who were involved in this incident.

Parents and guardians, as the principal of this academy I deeply apologize for the negligence of my instructors and helpers. I understand your anger and I'm truly sorry for this unexpected event that everyone including myself didn't provide better care for. (Principal Ligner)

I will like to inform you all that none of your kids sustain any severe injuries and that we are conducting an investigation with the Pdom at this time and will have an explanation about the incident. So all parents can rest assured that everything will be explained in due time I promise as the principal. (Principal Ligner)

Hmm it better be (???)

Hmph we'll see (???)

And what about our son Merfel (???)

Someone said within the crowd of people and as everyone turned their heads to see the person who called the principal by his name. They saw four extremely beautiful and handsome people standing next to each other and everyone could tell they're related in some way. Three of them had Emerald green hair while the other handsome man had brownish hair.

The two females looked to be in their late teens to early 20s with one having a mature atmosphere while the emerald green hair male looked to be in his early to mid 20s because of his short haircut. You could tell that the mature feeling woman was an elf but not a full fledged one since her ears were only slightly long but didn't change how beautiful she was.

When the principal heard this voice he could feel the anger in it and it made him feel cold and scared because it was the same voice from earlier while on the phone and he knew who these people were and what they meant. He had to brace himself for what may transpire soon.

As he was thinking to himself the person called him again.

"Merfel" he said again with sharp glaring eyes causing everyone to shudder from looking at them. 

Our son, where is he? Have you started searching for him? (???)

Ahh yes Mr. Walter we have already started once we found out he was missing during the student count.

Hmm any leads yet (Will)

No Mr Walter sorry but we'll make it our priority to find him. (Principal Ligner)

Mhmm (Will)

The crowd was thinking who were these people who could make the principal of Spring City Academy talk with such respect. They started whispering and asking the people beside them if they knew them but no one knew of them.

They were a complete mystery but they were more confused why the principal was so respectful towards them though. Some arrogant big shots thinking they themselves were the important party here started getting angry because they weren't talked to in the same respectful manner.

Hey who are you people, we are the ones who get to ask questions so weak commoners like yourselves need to stay in your place. (???)

Yeah you people have no say here all of you are irrelevant, so shut up and leave. (???)

Or else, another supposedly big shot person said to them and their bodyguards look at the family of four with hostility. While the other parents just watch in disappointment since they act like this is medieval times or something where the strong make all the rules even though society is more balanced now but still some places are in medieval times and some people act like it. And the principal had an ashen face looking at these idiotic people trying to figure out if the love living on the edge or something. 

You idiots shut u… (Principal Ligner)

Before the principal could finish his sentence all the big shots and their bodyguards stared daggers into him making him remember that they are still influential people even if they can't really touch him much. They also know it to be they aren't scared or anything just they don't want the hassle of the government investigating them.

While things were getting tense the beautiful mature half elf started laughing and said in a cold voice.

Ants should know their places before they end up getting removed (Eli)

As she said, looking at everyone around with her icy gaze. Everyone who saw her gaze shuddered even more than before, they could feel that if they say or do the wrong thing it would only be their death here. But you know there are the heroes who don't care about their little lives.

Wha-what did you said (???)

Did I not say it clearly enough for you, ant? (Eli)

Uh Oh *Will, Ron, Lyn*

Everyone else trembles in fear from the slight killing intent because just from a little bit they can tell how dangerous she is. But some foolish people still don't understand that.

Some of them stop trying to find problems with them because they knew nothing good would come out of offending her and a couple others don't know how high the sky is unless their heads fell off.

Do you know who I am, dare to offend me, you got guts but let me tell you I am the President of Flin Enterprise. Do you understand now, you can't offend me. (Mr. Flin) 

As he said that with a smug face filled with contempt he looked towards his bodyguards and signaled to them.

Cripple them so they can know who not to offend. (Mr. Flin)

Before they could even carry out the order their body felt pressure and it started increasing. They could feel their body creaking as they were slammed towards the ground with an even stronger force than before causing them to cough blood then reveal fear before passing out. The people who were unaffected by this were shocked because that was gravity manipulation. A rare manipulation that is hard to grasp. And the one who used it was Will.

You have some nerve to threaten my family, you must have a death wish. (Will)

He said with a gaze filled with killing intent stronger than before causing some to tremble in fear and others to pass out from the degree of intent coming from him. 

Will there's no need you know that right (Eli)

Ah yes you're right (Will)

He stopped releasing his killing intent but still held a cold gaze towards Mr. Flin but he was trembling while breathing heavily and sweating from feeling it to more than everyone else. He didn't say anything, just left as fast as possible while glaring at the family before telling some other bodyguards to pick up the three that passed out. As they left, other people quickly left as well fearing they would be the next target. 

Now Merful how come we can't find a trace of him it's like he disappeared into thin air. We even try to locate him through the necklace we gave him that has location magic, protection barrier and search magic special effects attached to it. But for some reason it can't find him, maybe wherever he is something's interfering with the location magic. (Will)

He look towards his wife who show a worry expression and said

Don't worry Eli I'm sure he's not in any danger he can't handle, he's our son after all. (Will)

As he said with a smile even though deep inside he's worried too. But he also believes that his son will be ok and they'll be able to find him soon.  

As they were talking they completely forgot about the adventures who were assigned to this task were also closeby waiting to explain things before the previous incident happened between Will's family and Mr. Flin but they didn't dare intervene but as long as they've been adventures they could tell how dangerous Will and his family were. The husband and wife seem to be at least SS rank, while the son is A and the daughter is C ranks but they all give off a dangerous feeling.

So the party of six decided it was best to leave as they seem to already come to a conclusion on everything regarding the dungeon incident.

While exiting the building they could see Mr. Flin talking on the phone instructing someone to get information on Will and his family with an angry tone. All they could do is shake their heads since they know that he is only digging his own grave. 

He really don't know how high the sky is... truly idiotic. (???)

What you said Kaze (???)

Nothing let's go pick a quest from the adventurer's guild (Kaze)

He said as his party members nod in agreement and left to go to the guild.

As they left Mr. Flin had an expression of doubt and anger because he couldn't get any information other than the basics like their names, occupations, school and address but everything else was blank and so he thought they were just nobodies and so he decided to make them pay for today's humiliation. 

He made a call to an unknown number as the call connected there was a cold voice of a man on the phone.

What it's it Darcel (???)

Sorry for bothering you Blood Wolf but I have a favor to ask of you don't worry I'll pay as usual. (Darcel)

Hmm alright, who do you want me to help you get rid of? (Blood Wolf)

It's some low life family who humiliated me today. I want them dead without a trace . (Darcel)

Hahahaha they did, did they hahaha alright so who's the family who seeks death, hurry up so I can finish this since I'm quite busy. ( Blood Wolf)

The family consists of seven people but one child has already gone missing so there's no need to worry about that one but the others I want their heads in front of me soon. (Darcel)

I see, so any information like names, addresses and other important information. (Blood Wolf)

The names are William Walter The 4th, Elisha Walter, William Walter The 5th, Elverlyn Walter and twins Melkaleena and Selondra Walter and their home address is… (Darcel)

Before Darcel Flin could finish Blood Wolf interrupted him with an unusual tone.

Di-did you say William and Elisha Walter (Blood Wolf)

Hmm Yeah (Darcel)

He said in a confused way.

Why does it sound like he knows them and also scared of them hmm must be my imagination. <Darcel>

He could hear Blood Wolf over the phone nervously gulp his saliva and finally says

Are you crazy, do you have a death wish or something, sorry but I can't and won't do it for you, sorry. You should also give up, don't offend them or you won't know how you died. (Blood Wolf)

Wha-What do you mean you won't and why should I give up. No one has lived after humiliating me and it wont start now. No matter who they are. (Darcel)

You're really stupid fine don't say I didn't warn you but those two are extremely dangerous and the wife is the most dangerous one of them all. You have been warn bye Darcel don't do anything stupid. ( Blood Wolf)

Tsk we'll see I'll go back for now and think of calling someone else to handle this. As Darcel said in frustration. 

As he left the family of four also walked out, they headed towards their car in order to go pick up the twins from school. While on their way no one said anything, everyone was thinking about different things and soon they arrived at the twins' school. Once the twins got inside everyone had a smile on their faces and talk to the twins like nothing happened but then the twins said

Uhm where's big brother Josh (Melkaleena & Selondra)

Everyone looked at each other with a sad look but quickly changed it then proceeded to tell the kids they're brother went away for awhile and he'll be back soon. They said ok and left to go home with a few heavy and innocent hearts. Meanwhile in the Cross Dimension on Planet Dred that said brother/son who were away are currently going through life and death situations inside an underground cave trying to find his way to the surface.

<Panting> How far is it to the surface? (Joschwa)

[Ding! About 20 Km From Current Position]

<Sigh> great and I've almost used all the potions I have. (Joschwa)

And how long have I been down here already feels like forever. (Joschwa)

[Ding! It Has Been Almost Two Years Host]

Wha-what hold on I could have been gone that long I just got here though. (Joschwa)

[One Day In Your World Is Two Years Here]

What the heck, isn't that too much of a difference.... Aah whatever let's just get out of here, but the closer I get to the surface the more monsters I see and they're not weak either and my concealment doesn't always work against them. (Joschwa)

[Host Should Allocate His Points So It Can Be Easier On Him]

Yeah I know but first let me finish off these Mole Ferns (Joschwa)

He said with a slight smirk.
