Booom!
The beam phased into the vortex and appeared far in the sky above before vanishing.
Sarah slowly lowered her arm along with the blaster as her eyes widened.
“Big… brother?” She recognised the bloodline ability that had just been used.
“Be careful with that thing. You could really have harmed an innocent person,” E.E cautioned.
“I’m sorry! I’m sorry!” Sarah began apologising with an expression of disbelief.
“Don’t worry, it won’t have harmed me anyways,” Gustav chuckled lightly while responding.
“Huh?” Sarah didn’t understand why he would say something so absurd when the blaster was very powerful but she was not ready to ask at the moment.
She proceeded to move forward and locked E.E in a tight embrace. The smile that had been missing from E.E’s face upon their arrival into this city finally appeared once more.
“Big brother what is going on? Why do you look like that?” She questioned after dislodging from him.
“Let’s go in first, I’ll explain everything,” E.E voiced in response.
–
“Where’s mum?” E.E inquired after they had taken a seat within the fairly small living room space.
“She’s out selling merchandise,” Sarah replied.
“Aren’t you supposed to be with her? She needs protection!” E.E stated with a strong tone.
“After you sent some money the last time, mom was able to get a business place at the upper district. You know its safe there,” Sarah explained.
E.E relaxed after hearing her explanation and leaned his back against the sofa once more.
‘E.E’s family had been living this kind of life and I had no idea…’ Gustav felt like bashing his head against the wall as he came to this realisation.
He saw E.E like the brother he never heard yet he never made the effort to find out about his background.
He wondered why he never asked. If it was because he was always trapped in his own bubble of past trauma that he never bothered to think others around him might have suffered as well in a different way.
The only ones he was aware of were those who he didn’t actively seek to discover. Backgrounds like Angy and Matilda…
Yet he never sought to discover someone he considered important… did he get fooled by the smiles, warmth and joviality E.E exuded?
Yes he didn’t care for other people but how could he have let his best friend family live in such a condition when he had the power to change it?
“E.E let’s get your family out of here,” Gustav suddenly voiced out, interrupting Sarah who was letting E.E in on some recent developments.
“Huh? What is he talking about, big brother?”
—-sss
“…But I will get to the bottom of this… Whoever is responsible for such expensive joke will answer to me,” Gustav responded with a cold tone before he resumed walking.
Gustav met up with E.E who was waiting not to far away from the location of the place where they were interrogated.
“It should only take a few minutes,” Gustav said to him and E.E nodded in response.
“Why is he..? What are you..?” Vera was a bit confused as she stared at both of them while voicing out.
“You can go Vera… I’ll handle things from here,” Gustav instructed.
“…hmm alright,” Vera complied and started walking away while Gustav and E.E moved to the side to wait behind a tree.
Both of them waited for several minutes before a male cadet wearing glasses with a buzz cut walked out of the facility ahead.
Gustav and E.E remained in their positions and watched him walked across the path.
After he had even hundreds of feet beyond the point of the tree they started following him from behind.
Gustav and E.E tailed the youngster until they arrived at a particular part of camp that was slightly secluded.
“Gremlin, how about we have a little chat,” Gustav voiced out from behind causing the youngster to halt his steps.
The moment he heard Gustav’s voice, he turned around with a wary expression written on his face.
Before he could even say a word Gustav had already dashed forward as E.E conjured a vortex behind Gremlin.
Thhrkkk! Swwoooooosshh!
Gustav body travelled so fast arriving before Gremlin in almost an instant as he reached out his hand and grabbed Gremlin by the throat before pulling him into the vortex along with himself.
Swwooovvv!
The vortex closed up the instant E.E also jumped inside.
They appeared at a high mountain top that was literally poking the clouds.
Gustav held Gremlin by the neck while standing on the ledge with his arm outstretched forward.
Gremlin was only hanging from the top with Gustav’s grip on his neck. Beneath him there was no solid ground besides the one that was thousands of feet down.
All he could see was the fog and the ledge which he couldn’t reach because of Gustav’s tight grip on his neck.
“Let go,” Gremlin tried clawing and kicking as he yelled for Gustav to let go of him but no matter what he did it was to no avail.
This brought him to the realisation that he really couldn’t do anything against Gustav’s strength.
E.E stood behind Gustav and looked around the massive mountain range.
“This is quite this scary place… If you didn’t bring me here, I probably wouldn’t have known that such a place existed,” E.E voiced out.
“Yeah, it’s a good place to hide a corpse… Good thing only the senior years are permitted to come here and they don’t use this place often,” Gustav said with a devilish smirk.
The MBO camp was like a city so there were still many places that weren’t in usage for the time being and this place happened to fall into that category.
It was off limits for the first years as well but since Gustav was an officer he could bring anyone he wanted here using his official privilege.
“Now don’t you have something to tell me Gremlin?” Gustav proceeded to ask while staring into Gremlin’s eyes.
“Tell you? I- I – what are you talking about?” Gremlin asked while stuttering slightly.
Whhoooshh!
Booom!
The beam phased into the vortex and appeared far in the sky above before vanishing.
Sarah slowly lowered her arm along with the blaster as her eyes widened.

Now will you let me type or are you still having serious issues.
