Last Shelter Online

Hiro threw the man’s body at three other men who were also hiding in black robes, and they were just about to dash towards him to save their friend.

Bang!

The four of them fell on the ground with one person hitting the other. Hiro looked at them one by one, trying to figure out any information he might have missed. However, no matter how long he looked into their eyes… Hiro didn’t know all the people hidden behind the mask were. He didn’t know them at all.

“Get lost from here! Whatever the reason, never come here again or you will end up in my hands.” Hiro threatened them, making the terrorists in the game become furious. However, none of them dared to fight Hiro because they didn’t want to put a risk on their account. They might not be able to play for a while if they did that.

One of them suddenly threw a black ball, which instantly sucked their bodies one by one into it the moment it hit the ground.

Whoosh!

Boom!

The ball exploded and released quite a strong air pressure to blow away the nearby rock.

A mass teleportation device. That was the first time Hiro had seen how it worked.

“Ace! Are you okay?” Liberty immediately ran towards Ace after Noah lowered her from above the air bubble that had burst because it was no longer needed.

The girl rushed into her brother’s arms and began to sob because she was so worried about him. She even hugged Ace too tightly, as if she forgot that Ace was still not fully recovered from his injury.

Hiro glanced at Noah, giving him a signal to come with him to Ace who was still receiving treatment from Alaric’s magic.

“Noah, help him recover.” Hiro asked, making Ace seem to be frowning in disapproval, but Noah was not someone who cared about anyone except Hiro these days.

“Power of wind, bring peace to him. Power of earth, absorb all the pain from his body. Power of fire, burn all the hates in him. Power of water, rebuild all the broken. And Power of sky, cure him.” Noah twisted his hands clockwise like he was holding a ball between his hands. Every time he mentioned the element he was about to fuse… the sparks of a different color appeared in the gap between his two constantly moving hands.

This wasn’t the first time Hiro had witnessed one of Noah’s most amazing healing magics. Only Ying-Yang Harmony users could use all the elemental magic in a balanced way and blend them together.

[World Healing]

Clink!

Even Ace, who had wanted to refuse the help from Noah, couldn’t say anything as his eyes locked on the bright light with five colours in the air. They had just appeared from Noah’s hand, and it moved towards him.

When the light expanded and covered his body like a baby and the placenta that kept a living creature alive in the human body, Ace felt very warm and comfortable in that light. His ears could hear the relaxing sound of the wind. The stinging pain in his body was slowly disappearing. His torn skin and wounds had completely closed again. And what’s even more amazing, all feelings of emotion, especially hatred and anger that welled up so big in his chest just a moment ago also disappeared. His chest felt very light. That was when he could see Liberty’s face again, his mouth hanging open.

“Libe, I’m glad that you’re not here when it’s happening.” Ace reflexively pulled his sister into his embrace and hugged her tightly.

Hiro was already very curious about what had really happened. What did they want from the Exalted guild? And why did they attack Ace and his comrades with the intention of killing them like before? Even so, he didn’t want to disturb Liberty and her brother for a while.

“Thank you,” Niklaus, who was the most able to put his ego aside among them, expressed his gratitude sincerely on behalf of the others. He also received an injury, but it was not as bad as the wound received by Ace, so that with Alaric’s help alone was enough to make him return to normal.

“How did you guys come on time? If you didn’t come, we might…” Alaric looked a little traumatized by what had just happened to him. He couldn’t even continue his sentence.

Jacob patted Alaric’s shoulder to comfort him, as if the two of them were old friends.

“Don’t worry, my friend. Even though we fought in a guild war, on a cold, normal day like today… We are still friends playing the same game,” Jacob said. Alaric didn’t know what the man meant by that. Even so, he nodded and smiled again, as if he understood it.

“Hiro, thank you for coming with me. And you too, Cara, Jacob, Noah.” Liberty turned away from her brother to express her gratitude to the members of Everlasting.

“We did nothing honestly.” Cara said, her tone a little disappointed because it turned out that she didn’t have to step in to get rid of those terrorists.

When the atmosphere in front of the magnificent building of Exalted’s guild base felt warm again, and the audience finally dispersed because their spectacle was over, suddenly Dimitri, who had been listening from afar, approached and spoke in a hateful tone.

“We don’t need your help. I alone am enough to defeat them all,” he said sarcastically, looking straight into Hiro’s eyes while clenching his jaw.

Hiro arched an eyebrow. Dimitri’s voice when he was angry and annoyed and the cold look in his eyes made him feel very familiar. Besides, the costume that Dimitri wore today was a black robe which reminded him of the WynterRain fanatic who sneaked around the tavern together with his friends and talked about something Hiro didn’t know what it meant.

At that moment, Hiro immediately became suspicious of Dimitri and continued to stare at him from head to toes. He tried to convince himself that his guess was not wrong. Dimitri was one of them?

“What do they want from you?” Hiro asked anyone who would answer. He didn’t take his eyes off of Dimitri, which made Dimitri look a little awkward and feel strange.

“A place to live. The official base and guild. They asked me to join Exalted,” Ace replied, feeling no need to hide it from Hiro. Even Liberty had heard it for the first time.

“OMG, brother? Seriously? No—I don’t wanna live with bad guys like them,” Liberty replied spontaneously. She was against that idea.

“I know. And I will never let it happen,” Ace added calmly. Even just a little, Hiro was sure if he saw Ace glancing at Dimitri as he said it.
