*Clank*

I ended the phone call and looked ahead of me with a grim face, hoping that Lucas will successfully escape.

I saw the Martial Captain ranker heading towards the warehouse, which made my face even grimmer

But then suddenly I heard familiar noise which made me slightly flinch.

*Ding* *Ding*

[New Quest!]

[Escape with Lucas!]

[Quest Goal: Escape the harbor with Lucas!]

[Quest Rewards: Technique Recreation Token x1!]

[Quest Penalty: Captured by Martial Captain!]

[Quest Failure: Unable to escape harbor or one of you getting captured!]

I saw a new quest coming, but it didn't make me happy at all, even though the reward would be very useful for me.

Lucas was still stuck inside the warehouse and all those men with black suits walked inside of the warehouse.

I quickly opened my stats to see does anything help.

Enough for 2 Random Boxes.

Time to gamble I guess…

I bought 2 Random Boxes and the same black box with the question mark on it appeared in front of me.

I opened the first box.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

[You opened Random Box!]

[You received Weakness Detection Eye!]

[Weakness Detection Eye Lv1: It allows you to see any weakness of the person who is Martial Commander or below in rank!]

Not bad!

It will be very useful for me in the future, but I don't think it will help me in the current situation.

Then last remaining random box appeared in front of me.

I opened it and prayed that it gives me something useful.

[You opened Random Box!

[You received Dynamite!]

What the fuck.

Not what I expected.

But.. this might be useful.

I looked at the black cars parked in front of the warehouse and I had a crazy smile on my face, which even made me feel weird.

I hope I don't become a crazy explosion lover…

Even though, explosions are cool…

I shook my head to get rid of useless thoughts.

I looked at the people in front of the warehouse, but they weren't paying any attention and instead stood beside the Martial Captain, talking about something.

I sneaked in closer to the cars, using crates as cover.

I arrived at the black car and I took dynamite from the shop.

I put the dynamite at the bottom of the car and there was a red button that starts the countdown.

Handy…

I pushed the red button and the countdown started from 30 seconds.

30..

29..

28..

I saw it was working and I quickly used crates as my cover and ran back towards my hiding spot.

I took my phone and I quickly dialed Lucas, hoping that he is in a safe spot.

*Clank*

The phone call was connected.

"Lucas, be prepared to run towards the window, you will find your chance to escape soon," I told him quickly.

"Don't do anything dangerous Ichiro!" Lucas said with worry in his voice and tried to talk me out of it.

"No worries Lucas, soon all hell will break loose, but I am safe currently, be prepared," I told Lucas with a smile and I heard Lucas sigh in relief.

I ended the call and I started to count.

8..

7..

6..

5..

4..

3..

2..

1..

*KABOOM!*

I saw a spectacular sight of a black car exploding which made the car fly straight up towards the sky and the explosion also resulted that other cars close to it also exploding, making huge fire.

I saw all the men in front of the warehouse starting panicking while Martial Captain looked warily around him.

Some of the men even also got injured from the explosion.

I looked towards the open window, hoping that Lucas would come soon.

and it didn't take long for me to see Lucas jumping out of the window and rushing towards me.

"What the fuck." Lucas said while having a huge smile.

"Yep." I laughed and fist-pumped with Lucas and started running out of the harbor while using crates as cover.

and after 5 minutes of constant running and avoiding people who were running towards huge fire, we managed to escape harbor and we were currently running through the streets.

*Ding* *Ding*

[Quest Completed!]

[Quest Rewards: Technique Recreation x1!]

I completed my quest successfully, but ignored it for now and kept running with Lucas.

"So it's done," I asked Lucas after we stopped running and sat on the nearby bench,

"Yes.. no more Irkum." Lucas said while looking down at his shaky hands.

"You alright?" I asked him with worry.

"Yeah bro, I am alright, just feels weird, but I feel fine." He said while giving weak smile and I only nodded while still looking at him with worry.

"We need to get to the police station, I wonder if the chaos has ended," I told him and we stood up to start running towards the police station.

It was already late and not sure what kind of excuse I can make after Lucas and I kind of disappeared.

We ran for another 20 minutes and arrived in the front of the police station.

It was still quite hectic, there was even ambulance's which made me realize that they found out the dead police officer.

"Excuse me, what happened here?" I asked from the nearby woman.

"Explosion happened and it seems one of the police officers was there when it happened and died as the result." The woman said while looking at the ambulance.

"I see, thank you," I said and sighed in relief, I guess they thought the explosion was the result of his death and I hope it stays the same.

I looked towards Lucas and he was currently talking with man and woman, while a cute little girl was next to them, looking at me without blinking.

The woman had the same beautiful black hair as a little girl with the same blue eyes, but what was different was her demeanor which gave a mature vibe while gently looking at Lucas.

Man on the other hand had brown hair and blue eyes with slick hair cut looking like a businessman with his black suit and black tie, the only thing which made me think that it was their dad was his height, which was over 190cm close to Lucas, but still slightly shorter than Lucas, even though he was an only middle schooler.

'I guess it's his parents.' I thought to myself and then his parents saw me and their eyes lit up and Lucas turned towards me with a smile and motioned his hand for me to walk there.

I walked straight towards them.

I greeted them

"Thank you for saving my daughter." Mother of Lucas said while shaking my hand with gratitude on her face.

"No problem.. anyone would have done the same," I replied

"So humble~" Lucas replied to me mockingly and I looked at him in amusement.

"Lucas is right, indeed humble, not many are willing to risk their own life's to protect someone they don't know." His dad said while also shaking my hand in gratitude.

"H-hello." Leia, sister of Lucas greeted me with a nod with a visible blush on her face.

*Crack.*

I heard something crack and then I saw both Lucas and his dad looking at me with murderous expressions while they were cracking their knuckles.

Leia's mother only smiled gently with a knowing look on her face.

Then Lucas walked next to me and whispered."What the fuck are you doing seducing my dear little sister?"

"What!" I said loudly towards Lucas and looked at him with question marks appearing over my head.

"You heard me, look at Leia and look how she is looking at you!" Lucas whispered to me while he put his arm over my shoulder and I looked at Leia and she was blushing while fidgeting while taking glimpses towards me.

"T-this is a misunderstanding," I told Lucas in hurry.

"Is that so?" He questioned me without believing any words I say.

"Yes man, she is only 13, she is like a little sister to me."

"Alright, I believe you, but I will keep my eye on you," Lucas said and finally took his arm off my shoulder

*Phew*

I took a deep breath and had some small talk with Lucas afterward.

"Will we be questioned today about what happened in the alley?" I asked Lucas' dad

"No, they told us they will call us later to call us back here for questioning." He answered me and I nodded.

"Well, I need to go home, my parents will kill me if they won't hear about me soon."I smiled weakly

"See you at the school brother," Lucas said and we fist pumped.

"S-see you later!" Leia said with a blush with determination to see me again and I only nodded to her gently

'Cute.' Was my thought and I started walking towards my home.

It was already 10.30 pm when I arrived at the home.

"Time to get slaughtered." I sighed to myself and opened the door and took a step in.

"I am home!"

Before I could take my shoes off, suddenly missile in form of a cute girl with pigtails hugged me.

"Where were you!" Ayako said with worry and it seems that her eyes were slightly red.

"I am sorry for being late." I gently smiled at her and patted her head and I was feeling guilty for making them worry.

"Ichiro! Get your ass here!" I heard my mother roaring and I only sighed and walked towards the living room with a koala named Ayako stuck hugging my waist.

(In the Warehouse)

"Sir, it seems someone attacked his place and killed Irkum." one of the men with black suits told towards the man who was standing in front of a truck which is currently being filled with boxes.

This man had a black suit with a black tie and black hair, with a little bit of grey on the side of his hair with a middle-aged man's face who is in his 30s.

He might look ordinary, but he is a Martial Captain fighter!

"What happened?" He asked the man in front of him with a deep voice.

"Someone infiltrated this place just before we got there and managed to knock out the guards and killed Irkum with a gun, doctors said that he was quite tall at around 190-195cm, but his voice sounded still quite immature, so he might not be too old."

"He might have looked inside the boxes.. find out who he was no matter what, we need to take care of him." Martial Captain said and the man in front of him only nodded.

"And there might be another person as well, those cars couldn't have exploded just by themselves, I think that man who killed Irkum was in the warehouse when we came here and couldn't escape, so the other man who was on lookout decided to make decoy."

'You guys better hope I don't find you.' Martial Captain thought to himself with a dangerous glint on his eyes.

'How can I explain this mess to my commander… He is the one who has to report it to Emperor Arkenthym…'
