Chapter 358: Goodbye

"Oh no...... The DiMaria siblings are gone!" Thinking back to the fact that two of the children had left the team after the roll call, Nora gritted her teeth with hatred - not only at the two brothers and sisters with the bear children of Scar and Lulu, but also at the teachers who were so panicked when they heard that the orc army was coming, that they couldn't even care about the children.

But the most important thing right now...... Eco and Nora looked at each other, both understanding what the other meant. And that's why the two of them are now in this Greene Fortress instead of heading south with the "big army".

Now that the "large army" has moved south, only Nora and Eco remain in the Greene Fortress to find the two of them, based on the information given by the brothers and sisters' classmates (including their appearances).

After analyzing the two of them, they felt that the only valuable information given by their classmates was "I heard Lulu say that her father seems to live in this city" - although they still don't know what their father does in this city.

But at least the other party's reason for staying here can probably be guessed. The next task was to find the two men and take them away - the Di Maria siblings must be taken away, and as for their father, it was up to the other to do so.

However, having said that......

But it's not easy to find those two bear children in such a big fortress, hey!

Even Ike turned on the stealth technique, flew into the air, and then used his powerful spiritual power to screen it...... I didn't find the two bear children for a while.

After all, this Greene Fortress is really big, even if it is a very dangerous frontier city. There are a lot of people among them -- the only thing that is comforting. That's the only reason why most of the people here are soldiers.

Because of course, there is a difference between a bear child and a soldier, and you can tell the difference at a glance, isn't it? Other words. Even if it is just a light sweep, as long as you sweep the figure of the two bear children, you will never miss and admit mistakes. In this way, the difficulty of finding people is also reduced.

After a period of searching, Eco was finally surprised to find the two bear children outside the Greeneen garrison camp - they were talking to a pleasant male defender general who didn't seem to be of low status and was touching the heads of the two children.

Seeing this scene, Eco hurriedly "stared" at the brother and sister with his mental power. She also falls back to the ground, wrapping her arms around Nora's waist and having Nora wrap her arms around her waist as well. Then he took Nora with him and flew to the place where the siblings were.

At this time, Eco, who had been keeping an eye on the brother and sister, also found a strange place-the expression on the face of the senior general who was talking to the brother and sister changed from pleasant and loving to shock, silence, and some tragedy.

Then the general closed his eyes and stood up. Then he opened his mouth and said something...... Because he had already focused his attention, with his superior hearing, this time Eco could clearly hear what the general was saying.

"I'm sorry...... Scar, and Lulu. Daddy can't promise you. Flee with you to the south. โ€

(Is this defender general the father of these two children?, no wonder these two children chose to leave the academy and find their father when they heard that the orc army was attacking the city) Eco thought to himself.

But even so. I can't agree with the fact that these two people left the team to come to this dangerous place - needless to say, the rules and so on, in many cases the academy has an obligation to protect the children (do their best).

So, Eco pulled Nora, and with a slight acceleration, he came to a place a few steps behind the two children. Then, they greeted the high-ranking general who had doubts because of the sight of the two of them, and identified themselves.

"Hello sir, can you ask if you are a member of the family of these two children? We are the people of Rakin Academy. After landing, Nora asked politely.

The general nodded and said, "I am the father of these two children, Peter Di Maria. โ€

After hearing Peter's words, Nora nodded, and then asked the Di Maria siblings, "Is he really your father?" and after seeing the two children nod, Nora turned to Peter and said to each other, "Hello, Mr. Peter." These two children should have told you that the orc army is about to enter the city. So if you agree, we'll now be responsible for bringing these two children back to the academy โ€“ and of course you as a parent can choose to keep your kids with you. If that's the case, then we won't be responsible for bringing your child back...... What would you choose? I'm sorry because of the limited time, but we need you to make a choice now. โ€

Knowing that the man in front of her was the father of the two children, Nora planned to negotiate with the other party, although if the other party did not plan to release the children, she would let Eco quietly take the Dimaria siblings even if they violated the rules. As for what to do when they bring it back, that's a matter of deliberation - because these two children don't need to die here, do they?

Luckily, however, Peter was overjoyed when he heard Nora's words, and said, "Ah, it's great that you're here. I'm sorry, two classmates, but my child was so disobedient that he escaped from the team. Thank you so much for coming back to my children. Without thinking about it, I implored the two students to bring my two children back and entrust them to the college so that the teachers could take good care of them. Ah, by the way, as for the children's tuition and living expenses...... "It is clear that Peter is trying to get his two children out of danger." Nora couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when Peter was so cooperative.

However, the two children said they could not accept it.

"Father...... Father, what are you talking about?" exclaimed Lulu in disbelief. And Scar also quickly grabbed his father's hand, and said in a panic: "Father, don't! We will accompany you, and we will not go anywhere! No...... No, father, come with us! Don't stay and die! Otherwise, I, I...... If Father doesn't go, we won't go!"

"Yes, if my father doesn't leave, we won't leave either!" After Lulu heard her brother's words, she quickly hugged her father's other hand, and said firmly, and at the same time added: "We are not willful, and even if we are willful, you are also our only father! How can we live in the world without you?"

"......" Eco and Nora looked at each other. Easily, Eco saw a wry smile, helplessness, and anxiety in Nora's eyesโ€”both she and Nora thought about the two children's reluctance to leave, so Nora wanted to use Peter's mouth to get Peter to tell him about sending the children back. I hope that the children will be more or less acceptable - not that they will leave obediently, but that after being forcibly taken away, they will be a little stronger and more obedient.

But looking at it like this, if you forcibly knock these two children out and take them away now, you will definitely be hated, right?

"Peng Peng", "Dong Dong". The sudden sound of a heavy object falling to the ground brought Nora back to her senses, only to see ......

The Di Maria siblings lay on the ground, their eyes closed. Nora, who was not slow to react, was stunned for a moment, and then understood the truth of the matter.

"Mr. Peter, you ......"

Peter did not speak, but crouched down, pulled his two children from the ground, and took them into his arms, holding them tightly and with a force that did not hurt them. After a few seconds, he stood up and handed the two children in his arms to Nora.

This classmate ...... Please. Please tell them that their father loves them and is sorry for them......" After saying this, the tall man took a deep breath, then suddenly bowed to the two and said in a loud voice: "Please! Thank you!"

Then, he, turned back to the camp. (To be continued.) )
