Unleashed Power
Chapter 13

"You know, you can call us later. But better not to."

Gerald stared at Katarine's guard who pretended to be crying and drove her away. She knew very well that the woman was very happy that she was leaving the house.

It was time for Gerald to leave Bender's residence to stay in the dormitory. All the workers in his house came out to take him away. In fact, Gerald could see clearly that Berner was crying.

The old man wiped his tears using his violet-colored handkerchief.

"Of course, stop crying. You make me feel like I'm dead" Gerald told Bender's butler.

"I'm sorry young master, I'm heartbroken to see you come out of this residence."

"Yes, I went out and became a vagabond. Wow-that's really fun" Gerald said with sarcasm.

The young man immediately turned his body and went into his carriage. He no longer wanted to deal with those people. Now, he has a new life and Gerald is looking forward to it.

"Son, did you bring all your stuff?" ask Harmin. Nonchalantly, Gerald nodded his head.

"Be careful."

Gerald looked down at Harmin's face. For 16 years of his life, he was very close to the man. Many memorable memories for Gerald. Although Gerald knew he was not his real father, he was quite happy to meet and get to know him.

Gerald turned his face. He will cry if he stays longer. He could not see the faces of Harmin and Katarine. They're pretty good to her, though they suck sometimes.

Gerald's carriage walked slowly. Katarine and Harmin stared at him until the carriage was nowhere to be seen.

Katarine looked at her husband's face. He knows very well if he's worried about Gerald. Even so, Gerald was the only child. He was the one who always made the big house feel crowded.

"Darling, our job is done. Now it's his job to find out about her."

Harmin nodded his head. The man smiled his sweet smile at his beloved wife. He grabbed Katarine and invited her into the house.

At the same time, a mysterious person was watching them from a distance. Someone was constantly muttering as if talking to someone else.

He sighed. Someone turned his eyes toward the way Gerald's horse-drawn carriage went. Without waiting any longer, the person immediately darted away in the same direction as Gerald's carriage.

...****************...

"Hoahmm~"

Gerald yawned. He was so tired of having to travel such a long distance. He tried to close his eyes and sleep. However, due to the rocky road, he continued to wake up.

"Sir, please walk slowly. I want to rest a little bit" he said.

Gerald wasn't in a hurry. After all, later he would go use the magic portal to quickly get to Alphrolone school.

"Okay, sir," replied the coachman.

Gerald closed his eyes again. The young man seemed to be really tired. After a few minutes, the young man was asleep in his sleep.

In his sleep, he dreamed he was traveling through a very beautiful city. The people there are very friendly. Their faces were filled with a smile that calmed the heart. Honestly, Gerald didn't hate that atmosphere.

Gerald walked down the city filled with the yellow of the sun. Whether because of the influence of his color or what, the young man felt warm to see it.

It was the first time he felt that. Gerald became comfortable and did not want to leave the city.

Everyone was happy to be there. The kids ran around and laughed. The merchants modestly offered his merchandise. The buyers are busy bargaining. And he stood in the midst of them, admiring every sight seen by his eyes.

"Praise the ruler of Mantauna, the savior of this land."

A shocking voice of Gerald who was still looking around. Everyone around him began to make their way and cheered for the man called the ruler of Mantauna.

At first Gerald was confused, but he followed the others to get to the side of the road. Shortly thereafter, a group of people came riding horses through the road.

The horde was led by a handsome, dashing man who once saw it, Gerald was able to deduce that he was a noble. Her golden hair, as well as her clothes that looked so luxurious already showed everything.

Gerald let out a long breath. He didn't really like this political spectacle. He turned his body and stepped away from the crowd.

The young man preferred to walk through the city rather than stand idly by admiring a noble whom he did not even know.

Of course, every time Gerald stepped foot, only the sound of awe could be heard from his mouth. The young man could not hide his admiration of seeing the city. Everything seems real, not a dream.

Gerald stopped his steps in front of the gate guarded by two men with iron armor attached to their bodies. The young man was convinced that the place was a very important place and of course not just anyone could enter.

Gerald immediately turned his body, intending to leave the place. However, a voice held him back. He immediately turned his gaze to the source of the voice.

There, Gerald could clearly see a little girl who was about 7 years old flying towards him. Gerald who had ugly reflexes, of course could not avoid it. He and the girl collided.

Gerald grimaced in pain. He was lying on the ground with the little girl lying on top of him.

The girl immediately stepped away from the top of Gerald's body and immediately apologized for her behavior.

For a moment Gerald was stunned to see the girl in front of him. How not? The little girl was very similar to Lacy, the girl she liked.

His face was not very similar, but his straight and long hair and white color that made Gerald to be reminded of Lacy.

"Sister, are you okay? Did your head hit?" ask the girl to worry.

Gerald immediately shook his head and smiled. With his stupid smile, the young man said, "I'm fine. How's yours?"

The little girl smiled happily and said that she was okay. Gerald turned his eyes. The smile of the little girl was very sweet. Perhaps, if Gerald was the same age as that little girl, he would immediately like her. Honey, she's just a little girl. Niu~ niu~

"Ehem~"

Gerald cleared his throat trying to get rid of the strange thoughts in his head.

"Whose brother? Looks like you're not a resident here. Where did my brother come from?"

Gerald covered his mouth with both hands. The young man could not resist the girl's imitation. It felt like he wanted to shout and hug the girl tightly.

Once again, Gerald cleared his throat and he positioned himself to be level with the girl's eyes in front of him.

"I'm Gerald. I came from across town. What's yourname?"

Gerald doesn't really know where he is. He only answered the origin about the origin of his arrival, after all the girl would not notice it either.

"My name..."

Not yet finished the girl spoke, a voice as if calling out to Gerald. The young man could not clearly hear the girl's answer. He is forced into the real world and everything goes dark for Gerald.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Gerald could see that his chariot was already falling apart. He could also see someone in his black robe fighting against his chariot driver.

Gerald was, of course, confused by what happened. He was in a strange place and he had never seen it before. He was sure that it wasn't the way to the magic portal to Alphrolone school, but how did he get here?

Gerald was dumbfounded to see the fight between the coachman and the mysterious person. The young man was more confused when he saw the coachman was able to use magic.

At one time, none of his family's chariot drivers could use magic. Of course this is the rule of Katarine. Actually, Gerald also did not really understand why the coachman of his family train must be a nulla and all this time he never had a problem with it.

But, Gerald was just confused by the scene in front of him. The coachman took out his fire magic, while the mysterious person repelled all the magic with just a sword of his.

"What's really going on here?" muttered.

The coachman's fire magic seemed to slap Gerald to wake up. Magic is not to defend itself, but a magic that wants to kill the mysterious person.

The magic was so powerful, that even Gerald who stood far enough away from them felt the heat. Unknowingly the young man shouted because of the heat of the fire.

However, it made the coachman turn his attention to him and without further ado, the coachman jumped towards Gerald. It seemed like he was intending to kill the young man. Butwhy?

Gerald closed his eyes tightly. What did he expect? Reflexes are very bad. In a dream alone he collided with a little girl, let alone in the real world. No matter where he goes, he will die.

However, the long awaited even his body did not hurt at all. Gerald ventured to open his eyes. There, he could see the coachman lying on the ground covered in blood.

In front of him, the mysterious cloaked person was standing while turning his back to him. Gerald turned his gaze towards that person's sword that was already covered in blood. He was convinced that it was the man who had made the coachman lying on the ground.

"Thanks?" said Gerald stammered.

He was afraid of that guy. Even though he had helped her, but that person could have intended to finish her off as well.

"If you get out of this forest and turn left you'll find a portal to Alphrolone's school."

Gerald was stunned to hear the man's words. Was he too easy to read until he found out he was in school at Alphrolone without him telling him.

However, he did not want to prolong the matter and obeyed the man's words to get out of the forest immediately. Leaving the mysterious person muttering alone.

"Target is already heading towards the point" the person murmured.

He removed the hood of his robe and showed her his white hair.

"Cursed you're a traitor."

The man looked at the coachman who was almost dying, thrashing. Without mercy, the man immediately stuck his sword into the coachman's back and instantly ended his life.

"We are not traitors, but you are too stupid."

The person covered back the hood of his robe and darted away into the deeper forest.
