Abyssal Chronicles-Chapter 1080: Family
2/25
Ding dong~
As the doorbell rang, Fanzi, who had been watching the news, frowned and looked curiously toward the door.
After all, They rarely had visitors here.
The curious Fanzi put down his phone and opened the door somewhat puzzledly.
"Who is it?"
As the door opened, a woman in a business suit with elegantly pinned hair and unique violet eyes appeared before Fanzi. Observing her unusual attire and the four tall, imposing bodyguards behind her, Fanzi raised an eyebrow.
Foreigners? With bodyguards? What's going on? Must have the wrong place?
"Who are you looking for?"
"You're Mr. Fanzi, correct?"
"Hm? Yes, that's me. And you are?"
Faced with this question, the woman smiled slightly and very elegantly placed her hand on her chest:
"My name is Yuna Felder, pleased to meet you. I'll get straight to the point - I've come today to invite you and your wife to accompany us to Sky Nation. Please come with us, Mr. Fanzi."
Though Yuna's words were friendly, her tone contained an undeniable pressure that brooked no refusal.
Hearing such forceful words, the confused Fanzi naturally felt displeased.
"What nonsense? Why should I go to Sky Nation with you? And what kind of place is Sky Nation anyway? Sorry! Not going!"
His temper rising, Fanzi refused Yuna without another word and moved to quickly close the door.
"What the hell? Crazy people..."
However, Just as Fanzi was about to close the door, Yuna smiled coldly:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Fanzi, but you don't have a choice."
Before her words finished, the bodyguards beside Yuna kicked the door open and smoothly struck Fanzi's neck with a knife hand strike!
"What, what the hell..."
Under the powerful impact, Fanzi's consciousness suddenly blurred. After stumbling two steps, he fell to the ground unconscious.
"Hey!! What, what are you doing?!!"
Seeing her husband fall, Yela, who had just walked out of the kitchen, immediately let out an angry demand.
However, Before she could finish speaking, Yuna casually snapped her fingers.
A spiritual energy shock suddenly struck, violently hitting Yela head-on.
The next moment, Yela's words cut off abruptly, her eyes rolled back, and like Fanzi, she directly collapsed to the ground...
"According to the Second Elder's wishes, bring them back."
Yuna said calmly.
As soon as the words left her mouth, the bodyguards walked into the house and very roughly hoisted the unconscious Fanzi and Yela couple from the ground.
"Let's go."
Clearly, Yuna didn't want to waste too much time on earth - having completed her task, she wanted to quickly leave this filthy place, this lowly area where commoners lived. Just as she turned around, a question from one of the bodyguards made her pause momentarily:
"Lady Yuna, what about the girl?"
"Girl?"
Following the bodyguard's gaze, Yuna quickly noticed the short-haired girl sleeping in the living room, hugging a large white cat.
With such commotion around? Still sleeping without a care? Strange one.
Yuna couldn't help but judge.
"Lady Yuna, how should we handle her?"
"Hmm, as for her."
Staring at the short-haired girl's face, Yuna raised an eyebrow somewhat playfully. ƒreewebɳovel.com
After a brief few seconds, Yuna gave her judgment.
"We'll take her back too."
"Take her back?"
"Though I don't know where she came from, this girl seems to have a good relationship with Mina's family, having stayed here for several days now. That being the case, she should also serve to restrict Mina, so let's take her back. One more won't make a difference."
"Understood."
…
Meanwhile, In the underground facility of the Special Affairs Bureau's secret base in Skina City's suburbs.
Sitting in his office, Guano's expression was quite complex. This elderly man in a wheelchair was looking at the nearby wall with complicated emotions. Where precious photographs had once hung, the wall was now full of holes, with six full, upright bottoms replacing the photos and statues, displayed quite indecently on the wall.
By the way, their upper bodies were all uniformly embedded in the wall.
And these people, Were not different people, They were all disciples personally trained by Guano - in other words, Satoru's senior martial brothers.
As Guano's disciples, these six people naturally had extraordinary strength, all being undisputed Level 6 experts, famous figures in the Special Affairs Bureau, existences that even Sky Nation wouldn't dare underestimate. However, these six masters lost their fighting ability in an instant, beaten until they foamed, and finally embedded in the wall with a huge crash.
And the perpetrator of all this...
Thinking of this, Guano somewhat nervously looked at the gorgeous black-haired young woman standing before the sofa, clutching her chest and seemingly trembling in fear.
Beauty containing evil energy, completely different from the Holy Maiden.
Black hair gradating to red, Dancing blood-colored butterflies...
After taking in these features, Guano helplessly realized... this must be the Abyssal Lord that Satoru had mentioned to him earlier. Though Guano was a veteran Level 7 expert, facing an Abyssal Lord, his heart undoubtedly felt enormous pressure.
Damn it, Wasn't Satoru supposed to keep an eye on her?! Why did she come directly to the base?! Satoru, what the hell are you good for!! Don't want your year-end bonus anymore, huh!
Guano couldn't help but curse internally while his gaze toward the black-haired young woman gradually took on a hint of speechlessness.
Damn, My ancestor... We're the ones who should be afraid, okay?!! What are you trembling for!!
The straightforward Guano finally couldn't hold back, his eyebrows twitching as he spoke:
"Miss Yumo... you don't seem to have anything to be afraid of, right?"
"How could I not?"
Yumo appeared thoroughly shaken, looking just like a fragile young girl.
"Suddenly five or six big men charging over? How could a weak girl like me... not be afraid?..."
"Weak girl? You?..."
Guano couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows.
Do you have some misunderstanding about the word "weak"?!!!
At this moment, Even facing an Abyssal Lord who had instantly defeated his six disciples, Guano had the urge to shout out loud! Never mind provoking the Abyssal Lord! Let's get this anger out first!
On the other side, seeming to notice Guano's irritation, Yumo tactfully stopped her act.
In an instant, Yumo transformed from a pitiful poor girl back into an elegant young lady.
Meeting Guano's gaze solemnly, Yumo asked politely:
"So Mr. Guano, could you let me see all the files related to the Abyssal Demon attack incident from ten years ago?"
"...Sigh..."
Shaking his head resignedly, Guano turned to look at his adjutant.
"Shen, give them to her."
Hearing Guano's words, Shen, who had been frozen in place for a long time, almost scared silly, finally barely managed to react.
After looking at Guano, he glanced fearfully at the black-haired young woman not far away.
Clearly, For a Level 4 ability user like him, even an Abyssal Lord who wasn't releasing any power could give him unbearable pressure.
Taking a deep breath, Shen barely managed to walk up to Yumo.
Though Shen was extremely unwilling, he didn't have the courage to defy an Abyssal Lord.
He could only follow the commander's requirements, find the relevant files and hand them over to Yumo.
"Thank you~"
Yumo, receiving the documents, returned a very polite smile.
The brilliant, enchanting smile struck directly at the adjutant's heart, making his old face redden as he couldn't help but look away.
She's an Abyssal Demon! She's an Abyssal Demon! She's an Abyssal Demon! She's an Abyssal Demon! Stay calm...
Meanwhile, watching Yumo quietly reading the files, Guano slowly knitted his brows. Through Satoru's earlier description, he also roughly understood this Abyssal Lord's background. Though it was still hard to believe, this Abyssal Lord was unexpectedly kind.
Moreover, Coming specifically to find these files? Then her purpose...
"Miss Yumo, are you trying to find out who summoned the Abyssal Demon back then?"
Gathering his courage, Guano slowly spoke.
To this, Yumo nodded noncommittally:
"Either way, I have the right to know how I died back then, don't I?"
"Well, this might disappoint you."
"Hm?"
Yumo, halfway through the files, raised her head in confusion.
"Why do you say that?"
"Because even now, after Sky Nation joined the investigation, we still haven't found the mastermind, haven't found who summoned the Abyssal Demon that time."
"Wasn't it said to be related to some force called the Felder family?"
"Yes, they had quite a few family members nearby at the time, but it was proven afterward that none of them summoned it. If we have to say it's related to the Felder family, the evidence is insufficient. Moreover, the Felder family isn't stupid - summoning an Abyssal Demon that ended up wiping out their own people isn't something they would do."
"Wiped out?"
"Yes, all those Felder family members near the incident site were killed by that Abyssal Demon."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Yumo's eyebrows twitched slightly:
"If not them, then who could it be?"
"So, this remains an unsolved mystery to this day."
"Uh..."
"Also, there's something else, though I'm not sure if I should say it."
"Just say it directly."
"Miss Yumo, you were that young person who died being hit by a truck while trying to escape the Abyssal Demon's pursuit during that incident, right?"
"Yes."
"Hmm, how should I put this? I've watched the footage from back then dozens of times... I feel... hmm, that Abyssal Demon didn't seem to have any intention of hunting you down... it just kept wanting to follow you, and then you ran too fast, rushed into the truck's path... and finally, got taken out..."
"HAH!!!?"
