Chapter 275: Splitting up again VI

{I want to let everyone know that I have a p-a-t-r-e-o-n with two new exclusive stories on it. One is The Aeternus Universe, and the other is a new story with a basketball system. I hope you guys will give it a chance. The link is https://www.p-a-t-r-e-o-n.com/easyread. Remove the dashes. Webnovel censors the word.}

Sally might be taking Hailey\'s words literally. I know Sally. I know that she doesn\'t want to do anything more than what we are right now, which is cuddling, not after what\'s happened. "Don\'t listen to her. My sister doesn\'t know anything about relationships. She\'s never held a relationship together for too long. " I say it as more of a joke. Sally chuckles lightly, and I\'m happy to see she\'s smiling a little now. "I know that this is all hard on you. Remember that you have people on your side. I\'m on your side, Sally. There isn\'t anything we can\'t do." I\'m doing my best to speak from the heart.

She leans her head on me and stays quiet. "I\'m really grateful that I ran into you at that inn. My life has changed so much after that day, all of it for the better. Thank you for helping me, and I love you, Cera..." We have our moments, the chances that we can talk like this, in private. "I\'m really glad that I got to meet your sister. I didn\'t think you two would be so different... While you\'re both powerful, your personalities are far apart." I\'ll take that as a compliment. My sister is unique in her own way. All of us kids are different.

The City of James will be a distant memory one day, but neither of us will forget getting Sally her revenge. My revenge. It\'s my revenge cause they caused the one I\'ve come to love incredible pain, suffering. "Wait until you meet my little brother and parents. We\'re a diverse family. None of us are really similar. It makes it interesting." Now that I think about it, my family is so weird. You might say it\'s unnatural. Sally stands up from the chair beside me and walks over to the biggest window. She looks out into the city. Seeing its destruction and rebuilding.

I stand up and join her. I know we\'ve done a good thing. With our actions, we\'ve freed so many people from suffering here. There is still work to be done with Fighting the Disease, but it\'s okay to enjoy this victory. "Why do you think they did it... Why they did that to my mom..." I wrap my arm around her and try to make her feel better. There isn\'t a way to know that, not for me. I couldn\'t imagine going through the life Sally\'s had. The dark things that are being revealed and the ones to come. She\'s one of a kind, and I\'m not losing her.

I lean my head against hers and kiss the side of her head. "I don\'t know, Sally... I can\'t comprehend why a family would do something like that. We\'ll find out, and we might not like the answer. But we\'ll know..." I know the reason is going to be for something stupid. It usually is and in reality. There shouldn\'t ever be a reason to do that to a person. The elven people are different. Their ways are different. Despicable and in need of correction. How that comes isn\'t up to me. If there\'s to be change, it has to be from within. Not forced.

I can\'t force an entire people to be different, and neither can Sally. We can cut the head off the dragon, though. "I want to talk to your sister. Without you. Is that alright?" While I do want to know, it\'s obviously something she doesn\'t want me to know. I can respect that. There are things that I don\'t want Sally to know. I nod my head and leave for the door. Hailey is likely downstairs trying to get some food and something to drink. I make my way down the stairs, and I see her at a table. I walk up to her, and she lifts her head.

She\'s waiting for me to speak, and I don\'t keep her waiting anymore. "Sally said she wants to talk to you alone. It\'s my turn to be the one giving privacy." She looks at me with some surprise. She was thinking that we\'ll be doing something more than talk up there, too bad, she knows nothing about relationships. There are times when that\'s not on either partner\'s mind. She stands up from the stool and takes off towards the staircase. I take a seat in her chair, and I look at the bartender. I have my hood up. I put it back up on my way out of the room.

He doesn\'t look like he wants to talk, and I don\'t want to talk either. The next thing I know, a bottle is thrown at the back of my head, and it breaks on impact. "You son of a bitch!" Another angry drunk calls out from behind me. Not the same one as earlier, but one that has probably lost a lot from the player\'s fight with the monsters. He stomps up to me as I look at him, and he balls his fist. This is becoming repetitive. So, I kick the guy in the chest as he approaches, and he goes across the room and landing on some tables.

I didn\'t put enough strength in to kill him, only make him lost his breath and break a few ribs. "If anyone else tries anything, it\'ll be much worse for them." I don\'t like threatening distraught people, one suffering from the after-effects. However, I can\'t deal with this all the time. I want some peace and quiet myself. Other drunks and disgruntled people help pick the man up, and they all look at me with anger. They don\'t act upon it though, the difference between them and me is a cotton ball compared to a star. There\'s no chance.

I turn my back to them. There\'s no way they can actually hurt me. Not without a legendary item, at least. "You know you\'re going to have to pay for the damages to the tables." The bartender tries to get some money out of me, and I can tell from here on out, it\'s going to be hard to deal with the natives of Gaia. I ignore him. I\'m not really in the mood to keep dealing with this. So it\'s best to ignore the world around me. It\'s the least violent path I can think of. That\'s if I remain unbothered, of course. Some people don\'t learn.

I zone out into my own world as the noise fades out. I think about all the things that Sally and I have accomplished since starting together. The journey to get her class, the dangerous one to get my Mana Aura. The events that have led us here. I think back to before I met Sally, and I\'ve got to say. I was a pretty lonely dude, not knowing companionship. The touch of a woman. It\'s really surreal to see the changes that I\'ve gone through and others. Hailey has changed greatly and is an amazing warrior now. She doesn\'t need anyone.

My thoughts drift to the rest of my family and what they\'re doing right now. I\'m betting dad and Marcus are having a blast. Mom is doing her best not to worry about Hailey and me. My thoughts are interrupted as I feel a hand on my shoulder. I look, and it\'s a guard. "This is the man refusing to pay for the damages to the table." It looks like the bartender went and snitched. He has that right, but it\'s still inconvenient. The guard already knows that I\'m a new person. I can tell by the look on his face. He must hate us as much as the rest of the people.

He grips my shoulder, trying to induce pain. All that he receives is a hard struggle to dig his hand into my shoulder. "You\'re under arrest. Come quietly, and we\'ll only give you a light beating." I sigh. There are many ways to get out of this situation, and most require blood. The only thing I can think of is revealing my identity, which should get people to leave me alone. We\'re leaving first light tomorrow, and it\'s not like there is another non-violent solution to this situation. I stand up, and I toggle my wings on.

My golden wings burst out from my back and knock over anything that gets in the way. I take my hood off and stare at the guard. "You really want to be the one to arrest The Son of Arch-Angel Michael?" There are only shocked looks all around the inn. The drunks quickly sobering up. The guard has a look of death. He immediately gets on his hands and knees and places his head on the ground. The bartender and everyone else in the bar does the same. This was the least violent solution, and now it should be easier to keep the violent ones away.
