The Umbrella Man Who Wants to Be an Adventurer

9. Past Incidents

At the time before graduation at his Junior High. The two of them were talking about their future and the academy they would want while walking towards school. They look happy because they will enroll in the same academy later.

“Hey, have you decided to enter which academy?” tanyanya Alicia's.

“Hmm, if I'm going to enroll in my grandfather's academy. If you, Alice?” The answer from Reyoura who had decided to enroll there and he asked Alicia the same thing.

“If I were, I would enroll in Brookmount academy. But, what was your grandfather's academy called, Rey?” Alicia also enrolled in the academy which belongs to her grandfather Reyoura and she still does not know.

“If it's not wrong the name of the academy is Brookmount. I got a letter of recommendation from the academy. So, I'll go in there.” Said.

“Eh, great dong you can get in there without taking the test again.” With pride Alicia to Reyoura who got the letter.

“Ya so.” Putting on his happy face.

Later, they arrive at school and meet Milady Rupert who is his cousin like Deco, and his fiance Albert Kurst. They were waiting for Reyoura and Alicia in the school hall. Then, began their graduation ceremony in the hall. Then, after the ceremony is over. They sit on the park bench at school and talk about their dreams that they will later realize in the future.

“Eh, Rey. if you grow up later you want to be what?” he asked out of curiosity for Reyoura's purpose.

“I really just want to be an adventurer.” Answer it casually.

“Eh! Wh why? You are strong. Don't you want to be a soldier like your father?” looking into Reyoura's eyes.

“No. After all, I would love to circumnavigate this vast world.” He was silent because he was stared at like that. Then, walk forward and spread both hands.

“Eeeh, you do love to walk yah.” While approaching Reyoura and smiling.

Instantly, Reyoura was stunned to see her beautiful face with her sweet smile, making her want to continue to be by her side.

“Of course. Oh yeah, if you want to be what if you're an adult?” he continued his conversation.

“If I want to become a witch and join the magician division in the royal palace.” He said he expected his dream to come true one day.

“Eeeh, so did yah. After all, you are also great when it comes to magic. Maybe you'll be even better in the future.” Smilingly.

Hearing her words earlier, Alicia felt that she was not great, because she could not go freely like Reyoura who could go anywhere freely.

“Not really. You are the great. Can go anywhere as you like.” Pouting and turning his face away.

“Ya.. but, it's not nice to be alone.” He scratched his head even though his head was not itching at all.

Suddenly Alicia advised herself to go with him. Because Alicia felt that she had to accompany him anywhere even though she had to go to hell.

“It's okay. There will be me. Let me accompany you. Hehehe.” She blushed in embarrassment and her face began to turn red as she said so.

“Ah, you could have. But... true as well, how about you come with me on an adventure, how about?” he invites Alicia to come with him because he wants to be with her.

“All right I'm coming. Anyway, I also do not want you to feel lonely later. Promise well?” have confidence. However, he again blushed in embarrassment when he saw Reyoura's face and pulled out his little finger towards Reyoura.

“Appointments.” While moving her finger slowly and grasping her little finger with her little finger.

Then, the two of them walked towards the warteg place they often visited to eat together there.

***

A few hours later, a group of demons came and disrupted the school. Some of the students who were busy there became victims and were taken to the hospital. However, those demons still wanted to mess with the school. It just so happened that a group of demon hunters came to their aid. However, they were also defeated by the demons.

Then, they still wanted to attack the other students who were running somewhere. And some of them were also defeated by Milady and Albert who were helping other students escape.

And some of those demons are trying to fight Reyoura and Alicia. As a result, Reyoura and Alicia were pressed because of lack of preparation and lack of number of people. They were both injured and exhausted. However, they must find a gap in order to survive from the demon.

“Alice, are you all right?” he said as he approached Alicia.

“I'm also fine.” The answer.

“Oh so yes. Looks like we can't fight any longer here. We have to get out of here.” Alicia said when she saw their current state.

They were still pressed there and surrounded by demons. However, they were unwilling to give up so easily and outwit the demons with smoke to escape from them. Then, they hide somewhere where only they know the place.

“For now we are safe from them.” While looking out of the window to make sure the situation.

“Ya. but, how is the next step?” tanyakanya.

“I don't know. We'll wait here until it's safe. Yeah.” He had no other plan as he held onto Alicia's shoulders to convince her.

“Good.” Alicia felt that this place was not safe for now.

A few hours later, the demons appeared around their secret hideout.

“Sial, where are they?!” said one of the demons in annoyance.

Then they saw an old building and suspected it. They think there's a human hiding there. So, they were prepared to check it out first. However, they did not find any traces of humans there.

They also burned the old building to ashes. And as they were about to leave, they saw another old building there. And in one of those old buildings was Reyoura and Alicia who were hiding there.

“Sial, why are they here?!” he nodded while hitting the wall next to him.

“Can't we get out of here?” Alicia was starting to worry about their current state. Reyoura immediately nodded his head.

“Oh so well. Hey Rey, are we gonna make it out of here?” said it.

“Of course. We'll be safe from here.” He thought of something to get out of there.

“True. Alright.”

And they instantly fired fireballs at the old building they both occupied. They shoot fireballs constantly. Reyoura was thinking of a way to escape from there. But he found no way to escape there.

The building was so closed that even sunlight could not enter the building. In fact, the door to the basement could not be opened at all. So, this would have left the two of them stuck there and could do nothing but expect help for the two of them.

***

Debris from the building began to fall on them both. However, they still survived the first wave of demons that attacked the building with fireballs.

Furthermore, in the second wave the demons increased the strength of their fireballs and re-attacked the building because it was a must for them to mess up the human world. So that's why their goal is only to lure Reyoura and Alicia who are hiding there. Although his attack was stronger than before, Reyoura and Alicia were still able to hold on as they hid under the table in the building.

But in the next wave, the demons fired their fireballs in a row and they both started to get scared when they looked out and went back to hiding there. But in the end they found a door to escape there. They immediately rushed towards their exit which became their only hope.

“Ah! I also found a way out. Let's go.” He saw a door that was quite far from where the two of them were and immediately rushed to go there.

“On the count of three. One... two... three!” holding Alicia's hand.

They both ran straight to the exit. They continued to run while avoiding the rubble of the old building. Although they were hit by moderate debris. However, it was not enough to stop the movement of the two of them. But at the last moment they went out through that door. Suddenly the foundation of the building collapsed and hit them both downstairs.

“What the fuck? Where am I?” he lay down and opened his eyes to look around him.

“Why... can I get hurt? Oh yes, I remember, if I was hit by the ruins of the building.” While stammering his style of speech.

Where from Reyoura's body immediately healed his wound that was quite severe. And which one is inside his body is which one is different from others because this is where it is special. Although the process was quite long, the mana still healed the wound slowly. Reyoura, who felt that his wound had healed, immediately got up and looked for Alicia. Then, he found Alicia who was seriously injured and exposed there with the ruins of the building. He had severe injuries to his head. Reyoura who saw him earlier immediately approached Alicia and removed the debris that hit his body.
