Will Valve’s PerspectiveBonus Chapter (part 19)______________________After everything was said and done, our team travelled towards the United Kingdom and searched for Icarus’ academy. Akai also mentioned that the National Defence of the United Kingdom and the Queen were already reminded about our visit. But despite our presence, the United Nations knew nothing about us recruiting another member of our guild. They only knew about the portal appearing in the country, but Elizabeth, Oscars, and I never mentioned any specific place for them to supervise our movements. Upon arriving at the school, Akai advised us to observe the area and wait for the perfect opportunity to save the students and awaken Icarus’ power. We would lose a few people from it, but since we were already stationed on the school, our team will do everything to lessen the casualties. We had no idea what kind of portal could show up on this place, but it didn’t look like it would be tougher than a Class-A portal.Ke
Will Valve’s PerspectiveBonus Chapter (part 20)______________________Just as we arrived at the location, a few more students were found dead on the map. Their eyes gazed from where they had come from, and, from the looks of it, these students didn’t have a fighting chance against the monster that killed them. We lived in a world where portals had appeared, and the ones greatly affected by these dimensions were the powerless people stranded inside the portals. And the only ones who could protect them was the Crimson Guild… for the time being. Although Akai also mentioned something about adding more adventurer guilds related to the Crimson Guild, that was a topic reserved for later. But when we went towards the corner, a girl ran towards us and sought help. She cried with all her strength as the youthful girl hopelessly clung for help. Her eyes scrambled in every direction and her hands quivered from left to right. But when the student finally saw us, she went behind me and covered
Will Valve’s PerspectiveBonus Chapter (part 21)______________________Before Icarus could pass out, Elizabeth, Oscar, and I approached his fore. And when I was near the student, I knelt down and offered him my hand.“Are you Icarus, the one who could control flames?” I asked with a dead, serious look in my eyes. “My name is Will Valve, leader of the elite party guild. The Crimson Guild wishes to summon you, Icarus Turner.”“The Crimson Guild?” Icarus asked. “Are you trying to make me laugh?”“Answer my questions, boy, before you could even ask another,” I demanded.Icarus shrugged his shoulders, but he was obliged to fulfil my request. Within a few seconds, Icarus, with the little strength he had, spoke up and replied. “Yeah, yeah. The name’s CIarus, yeah? Now, did my ears hear your ight? The Crimson Guild? You’re the legendary Crimson Guild?”I couldn’t believe my ears that this student had learned about the Crimson Guild without someone telling him. Akai told me that the only peop
Will Valve’s PerspectiveBonus Chapter (part 22)______________________“Why did you let my dad die? If you knew that these things exist, why the bloody hell did you let my dad fight against these monsters!” Icarus shouted.I had never seen this kid furious before. Even while watching Icarus desparely fend off the two gryphons while protecting others, Icarus didn’t have a maddened face… Not until now have I involved his father in the topic.Truth be told, I might be the one to be blamed for that grim incident. My team died after the military and I sent our troops to explore those portals. At least, that was what I had been informed. And when an inevitable accident fell upon me by meeting a portal, I was luckily saved by Akai himself and his newly found team. If it were not for them, my daughter… would’ve been dead by now. Among the people that followed me was Icarus’ father and a few of his unnamed men. If I was in Icarus’ position, I would’ve demanded the same thing. But since every
Will Valve’s PerspectiveBonus Chapter (part 23)______________________It took a few hours before Icarus could wake up. As soon as we arrived, we laid Icarus down on his bed, inside Akai’s office, and waited for him to wake up. Icarus’ mother was in another building, resting inside her private and exclusive room. After Akai learned everything about Icarus’ family matters, he accepted my suggestions and made us with everything he had in his resources. Icarus’ mother will always be relocated back to America and return to the main base with the rest of us.We took turns who would hit the sack and who would watch over Icarus. It couldn’t be Akai, since he was the leader of the Crimson Guild, and Kei, who was his right hand. So I suggested that Oscar and Elizabeth would be the first one to sleep, while I would be on observation duty. Considering it was already night time, and the moon was high above the skies besides the twinkling stars, As I took the first few hours, I opened my new pho
Will Valve’s PerspectiveBonus Chapter (part 24)______________________I suggested to Akai to leave a room big enough for Icarus if he ever woke up. That room consisted of a bathroom for himself as well as snacks, just in case Icarus would jolt wide awake for something to eat and return to doze off for a few minutes before conversing with us.But that wasn’t the case.As I entered the room, my eyes widened in surprise. He was there. Icarus was awake. However, the way I pictured it wasn’t that of an intense scene where Icarus would reject my offer and attack me for kidnapping him inside of this place without his mother. But none of that happened.When Icarus met my gaze, he had a biscuit inside his mouth. It was the snack I left on the table. As I glimpsed on the desk, only the wrappers were left behind, and not a crust was left from the plate. I believed Icarus was wide awake moments before I entered his temporary room. But even though he was already up, Icarus didn’t make a sound.
Back to Aoi’s Point of view______________________…………….Previously, on My Sniper System………….In the end, Hina agreed to my request and nodded her head. She didn’t say anything after that besides one last thing. And before she could even spit out the words inside her mouth, I took Hina’s hand and scurried outside.“I know what you want. You’re dying for an ice cream, right?”“How did you know?” Hina asked, acting surprised.I flashed a smirk on my face and replied, “Because I know you. I know you more than anyone inside this house.”“More than me?” Hina uttered.I nodded. “Probably. Probably not. But always remember, Hina. I will always be your brother. You can depend on me. Always. That’s what families are for.”_____________________________________The two of us stayed for the rest of the night until it reached midnight. Even though there was a mattress for us to stay in, it was difficult for me to shut my eyes and think of nothing but the portal. This time around, I was dealing w
“I’m sorry for excluding you from our talk. But I believe your brother told you everything you need to know. And I also am aware of your situation - that your parents are in the hands of my father, and he will reward you for bringing me back to his hands and taking me away from the Crimson Guild, or whatever that means… Look, I’ll be blunt, Hina. I care about your parents, and I don't want my father… I don’t want the prime minister to threaten you with your parents. But if the Crimson Guild are willing to protect these people, and your brother deals more harm than good to us, I’m afraid I will have to trust those people more than your brother, who was labelled by the news as a murderer. “ When Elena explained those words, Hina lost her cool and planned on hitting her. Elena saw through everything. But despite my sister’s actions, she wanted to take a hit. Considering what the daughter of the prime minister had mentioned, she was willing to sacrifice Hina’s parents for the sake of prot
