Hearing the full story from Prey I immediately came out of the dungeon again.
“Ara-!”
In urgent heart shouted Ara’s name in the dark mountain. Even though no way here.
“A, I, for now phone first...”
By any chance went to the main house?
Recalling places often went with Ara first thought home.
-Hello?
“Uh, mom! By any chance Ara there?”
-Ara? Ara not here? What matter?
“Never came home right?”
-Don’t tell me Ara disappeared? Never came home.
A...
I sat crouched as is and clutched head.
-Gyuseong, say a bit. Where Ara went?
“Came home and not there. Hearing went out alone to buy gift for me...”
-Ara alone?! Until now not came?
“Yes.”
Then beyond the receiver Seona’s voice heard.
-Ara not there?!
-For now report to police.
“Haa... Yes. Report and keep looking.”
-Oppa! Where often went with Ara! Look from there, together.
“Often went places?”
-No. For now let’s us meet. Come home.
“...Yeah.”
Heading to the main house the family who already finished full preparation there.
“Reported to police?”
“Not yet.”
“Then mom go and file missing report.”
“Yes.”
“Remaining people scatter and look. Where said often went with Ara?”
“Ara Hongryeon and Dasom Orphanage.”
I sweating from anxiety and continuously checking around. Even now Ara coming here not?
Like that setting plan and intending to depart suddenly phone rang.
“Hello?”
-Mr. Gyuseong, Han Seokjun.
“A, guild master!”
-Sudden sorry but by any chance where now?
“A, now at the main house. Guild master as it was problem arose now...”
-Um, seeming know what problem.
“Yes?”
At unexpected guild master Han Seokjun’s words froze for a moment then soon something flashed.
“By, by any chance Ara there now?”
-I’m beside now. I also received contact and flustered.
“I’ll go to the guild right now. Sorry, guild master.”
-A! The place I’m now not the guild.
“Yes? Then...”
-Yongsan awakened goods shopping street.
Yongsan? A!
Said went to obtain gift for me seeming went to Yongsan. Memory of buying various items there remaining seeming.
“I’ll go right away!”
-Yes. Waiting. Come slowly.
Phone cut and I exhaled a sigh of relief. The family also listening to my call together beside and as soon as cut urgently asked.
“What said? Found?”
“Uh. In Yongsan. Together with our guild master seeming.”
“A! Fortunate, really.”
But one strange point how guild master and Ara met.
‘Ara went to the guild first? So guild master accompanied?’
Waiting for father bringing the car and immersed in thought alone Seona screamed.
“What this!”
“Why, why. What!”
“Accident happened in Yongsan now?”
“Accident?!”
What on earth matters happening now?
* * *
Urgently heading to Yongsan despite evening quite bustling. Several fire trucks and ambulances, and thick cars seeming special forces vehicles visible.
“...”
Riding the car and coming could roughly confirm the accident reported on news. And confirmed Ara safe contacting guild master again so could put down big worry.
“Dad park so get off first.”
“Yes. Thank you.”
As soon as arriving near the scene got off the car and ran to the place where Ara. Then far away the familiar round shape visible.
“Ara!”
At my call tiger ears perked. Soon turning back and confirming me both eyes full of tears ran to me.
“Lee Gyuseong Gyuseong!”
“Aa, Ara.”
I received Ara who jumped as if flying and hugged in arms. Stroking Ara rubbing face then mother and Seona approached behind.
“Ara!”
“Aigo, our baby. Body fine?”
Soon Ara who perked head and raised looking at mother and Seona waved hands.
“Lee Seona Seona! Great Lord Lord!”
“Come here. Let’s see a bit.”
Mother lifted Ara and carefully examined the body. Fortunately no abnormality appearance.
“Mr. Gyuseong, came quickly.”
“A, guild master. Thank you. Examining our Ara in advance...”
“No. Police who mistook Ara as awakener confirmed name and contacted thinking related to our guild, just in time I also heard the accident news and heading to the scene.”
Seemingly coincidentally matched well.
Anyway Ara looking safe really fortunate.
“Lee Gyuseong Gyuseong.”
Then Ara hesitating and lowering head approached me. Wondered what matter but for now hugged such Ara again.
“Ara fine?”
“Lee Gyuseong Gyuseong, sorry...”
“What? A, going out? Fine. Fortunate Ara not hurt.”
“Not that.”
Ara casually showed something. Seeing now continuously holding the hat.
“Hat tore. I scolded?”
“Ayu, what else.”
I tense wondering if some bad matter but looking at the torn straw hat relieved.
Immediately messed Ara’s hair and reassured.
“I’ll buy new. Or fix again fine.”
“Can fix?”
“Yeah.”
Just in time mother beside confidently said.
“Grandma will fix. Our Ara don’t worry.”
“Ooh! Indeed Great Lord Lord!”
Looking at Ara who soon regained vitality Seona beside wiping tears and laughing. The appearance of making a crying face then immediately becoming bright seeming liked.
“How our Ara this cute!”
“Hehe. I cute.”
Like that enjoying the reunion with Ara far away a figure seeming police approached.
“Guardian of Ara?”
“A, yes. Right.”
“I am inspector Park Gyeongheon belonging to the awakened special forces. Thanks to that could resolve well what almost became a big accident. Sincerely thank you.”
To the police with a fierce impression lowering head I equally lowered head.
“No.”
“By any chance can request cooperation for investigating this incident?”
“Cooperation?”
“Statement needed.”
“A, that...”
Can Ara do statement well?
Hesitating answer for a moment guild master Han Seokjun near approached.
“Talk with me. Our side guild member.”
“A, guild master Han Seokjun. Then shall we do so?”
Seeming knowing our guild master.
Well seeming awakener no way not knowing Ara Hongryeon.
“Mr. Gyuseong go in with family and Ara for now. Later I’ll contact again.”
“Still fine?”
“Of course. Will contact tomorrow.”
Like that guild master Han Seokjun who resolved the tiring matter immediately winked at me and gestured as if go for now.
If I unaffiliated would have become extremely troublesome and tiring. Really fortunate.
“Shall we go home?”
“Yeah!”
Have to find out more in detail what happened but for now return today.
Ara’s solo outing ended without any problem like this.
* * *
While meeting family slept one day at the main house and returned to the dungeon.
“I came!”
Ara who made a crying face where went Ara who straightened shoulders confidently welcomed the slimes.
Porong! Porong!
Kureong-!
The slimes welcoming Ara with whole body Ara threw body to such slimes and rubbed face.
“Missed!”
“Haha.”
Ara wearing the straw hat mother neatly repaired before coming soon surrounded by the slimes and did a toss.
Yesterday me who returned to the dungeon after dropping by Iron Blood made a fuss with Ara’s disappearance so the slimes also seeming worried about Ara in their way.
“Hehe! Lee Gyuseong Gyuseong!”
“Hm. Why?”
“Hihihi.”
Looking at Ara suddenly laughing like a mischievous kid I tilted head. Called and why laughing so?
“Tada! Surprise gift!”
“Surprise gift?
Ara spreading both arms wide and said.
A, come to think of it went out saying obtaining gift for me. While that not forgetting and packing seeming.
But Ara’s hands nothing.
What?
“A! Ara the gift!”
“Um? Not! Here.”
Ara pointing at the air.
Wondering why pointing at the empty air nothing...
-Hihihing!
-Wol!
-Chirp chirp?
“Eeng?”
A sound that shouldn’t be heard heard.
* * *
Awakener management headquarters Yongsan branch.
Park Gyeongheon appeared amid people moving busily.
“Came!”
“Yeah. Jeong Jihwan?”
“Aigo, don’t say. Still denying.”
At the colleague police’s words Park Gyeongheon silently nodded.
“Sufficiently understandable. If familiars taken away the same as losing everything.”
“If grade 5 summon type awakener own strength weak so risked life taming grade 5 monsters. Moreover not one but no less two so dying better possible.”
“Where now?”
“In the interrogation room.”
“Yeah. Let’s go right away.”
“I’ll go together too!”
The two who headed to the interrogation room soon could see Jeong Jihwan sitting beyond the glass window. And in front of that already another police interrogating.
“Hey, Jeong Jihwan! Quickly spit out all the reverse summoned familiars!”
“No, truly wronged! Really none!”
Jeong Jihwan’s face as if excited dyed red and bursting high voice even spitting.
“Already know the fact you summoned grade 5 monsters flame wolf and ghost horse! Even filmed on CCTV like this why insisting to the end?”
“No summoned right! But really the master-servant relationship arbitrarily released and disappeared!”
“No, this guy really!”
“I truly wronged aaa!!”
Jeong Jihwan truly wronged.
The master-servant relationship with the summoned familiars suddenly cut not enough now not even knowing where disappeared. Grade 5 familiars the same as lifetime accumulated assets disappearing without knowing reason so Jeong Jihwan also seeming going crazy.
In such situation police urging to spit out the disappeared guys...
“Uaaa!! Really going crazy!”
“Haa, no sign of reflection at all. You doing so sentence increases? Still fine?”
Park Gyeongheon and his colleague watching that scenery shook heads.
“Still not scolded enough.”
“That acting also will shrink when sentence comes out. The other two?”
“The other two at least coming out cooperatively. That guy the biggest problem. To begin with planning this crime and recruiting personnel also that guy.”
“Vicious. Have to take the familiars as soon as possible.”
The two who said words Jeong Jihwan would have gone crazy wronged if heard soon disappeared. Jeong Jihwan remaining in the interrogation room now even shedding tears, snot and shouted.
“My familiars! My familiars!”
“This really crazy?”
Regarding familiars Jeong Jihwan sincerely wronged.
