Ancient Tears BloodLine

Sometime later, We boarded the train. Like always I took the window seat. Elder Thornton sat opposite me. Even though we safely exited from the Westword city, Elder Thornton couldn\'t help but to check the news sites from time to time.

Seeing him doing that, I decided to avoid conversation for a while. I can see there is something bugging his mind. Elder Thornton will definitely tell me once he feels right.

"Ding!"

I received a message from Granny Park. She is asking about our current status. Seeing that, I typed back and sent it to her. I heard from Uncle that Granny is recovering better. Especially after hearing me coming back. She became spirited.

Time progressed, A day later.

We were close to our destination. From time to time, Elder Thornton talks to me a little bit. But he spends most of his time on news sites. At this time I decided to ask, "Elder, How is the situation there right now?"

"Hmmm, I thought you don\'t want to talk about it" Elder Thornton was surprised by Vincent\'s question.

Then he added,"According to reports everything is fine right now. The Elite warriors who came to assist in the last days were from Parazam Hunter League. They immediately acted and successfully controlled the four borders. Which in turn gave some time to City Lord\'s forces to act and arrest warriors from hostile forces."

I nodded and asked, "Elder, then what about our Army Federation. Were they on friendly terms with the Star Tower?"

"Our relations with the Star Tower are not bad. But our office is located in a different region. Compared to us, Parazam Hunter League is quite close to them. " Elder Thornton replied.

No wonder, Their Elite forces came on time.

Time progressed, A day later the train crossed several areas to reach Red Stone City.

Unlike Westword city, Red Stone City\'s environment looks as usual. When the train entered the platform, I reminded Elder Thornton.

Slowly, the train comes to a halt. Passenger\'s begin to exit one by one. Seeing we have also stood from the seat and followed them.

"Arthur is already waiting for us, Let\'s go, \'\' Elder Thornton said with a smile.

I halted my footsteps hearing that. "Hmmm, What?" Elder Thornton said.

I said, "I plan to go home directly from here." To reach my home, I need to board another train. I want to go home, I have already spent enough time outside.

Elder Thornton smiled hearing that. "I know you want to go home. But do you really think it is as simple as back then" Elder Thornton said with an amusing smile on his face.

"What do you mean?" I said.

"You will know when you step outside," Elder Thornton commented. Then he gestures to me to follow him.

What\'s going on? I wondered. Then slowly I followed him to exit the compartment with others.

When I landed my footsteps on the ground. I heard multiple clicking sounds and light flashes before me.

"Mr. Zack, What do you want to say about your performance at the Star Tower?" One of the local reporters asked.

"Mr. Zack, Could you comment on those battles that happened at the border?" Another famous media reporter chirped in.

One by one several reports begin to surround me. For a moment, My mind went blank. I don\'t know what to say. This is something new to me. Parting away from them, I found the silhouette of Elder Thornton.

I hurriedly walked towards him escaping away from the crowd. Not only reporters there were also people beginning to follow me. Elder Thornton never stopped smiling. He knew the Hansen Campus was going to be famous.

Then he led Zack towards the area of Arthur. He already learnt the reality of the situation here from Arthur. That\'s why when Zack is having conversation with Mr. Jonathan . He took that time to call Arthur. Seeing Zack become famous overnight he told Arthur to receive them at the train station.

After arriving outside of the train station. We found Mr. Arthur in an air cab. We hurriedly walked towards him and stepped inside the cab. Seeing that swarm of people coming towards them. Mr. Arthur didn\'t talk, he directly drove the cab toward the Hansen Campus.

I smiled seeing Mr. Arthur\'s condition. He has really gotten better. He looks even stronger compared back to that day. I said, "Mr. Arthur, How is your condition?"

Mr. Arthur smiled and said, "Hey Zack. I want to congratulate you first. Your performance at Star Tower is amazing. Even today I couldn\'t believe that you achieved number 1 standing at LeaderBoard."

Mr. Arthur continued to say everything in his heart enthusiastically.

For a while, I didn\'t know how to stop him. Only after reaching the Hansen Campus he stopped praising me.

Damn! Thankfully my ear is fine. Soon three of us stepped inside of the campus. The campus looked completely new. Few leftover restoration work was also completed.

"Hmmm" I noticed something strange along the way. I haven\'t found any students so far. Seeing Zack\'s confusion, Elder Thornton answered, "Today is an off day. If students knew you were coming today. Do you think our staff can handle them?"

I smiled wryly hearing that. The situation in Red Stone City is totally opposite of Westword and Barron Fort city. There was no one there to recognize me. Hereafter, I don\'t know how I am going to handle this new popularity. It\'s nice to be lowkey.

Through the lift we reached the meeting hall situated at the top floor. I feel Elder Thornton is going to talk about the upcoming Crimson Hall Exhibition Event.
