Chapter 231 Cult?
"Madam Martha. Your son, Willam Aroa, is here," spoke that guy wearing a butler uniform as he observed the rest of us with slight curiosity. The one who was most dumbfounded among us was mom, as she looked at me with a serious face.
"Send him here," Mom spoke with slight hesitation as she looked at me. The others were now shifting their gazes between me and mom, as they all waited for William to appear. In front of everyone here, except me, there was only one question:
'Is the other kid going to be the same as the elder one?'
Not long after, William came rushing to the scene as he looked at mom with a relieved look as he wiped his forehead. He then turned around to look at the people sitting there before his eyes turned a bit wide open.
"Brother?!" He observed me curiously as I looked at him with the same surprised expression with which he was looking at me.
"Hey. What are you doing here?" I asked as I looked at him for a brief moment before he turned to mom and spoke,"I was.. just.. I think I had a bad dream."
'My brother is one of the regressors, huh?' I thought as I pondered about it. I shouldn't jump to conclusions so early.
Spencer, who was observing the whole thing, stood up and, using his super speed, jumped at William. Unlike me who has trained his body and also possesses the power of the System, William was kind of normal here.
-Thud!
And thus, he was easily pushed back to the wall by Spencer before he could realize anything. Spencer, who found out that William was totally normal, scanned him completely with his eyes turning red, before a confused expression appeared on his face.
"I don't think he is the same as me.. can you give me a minute with him?" I asked as I looked at Spencer, who still seemed doubtful about it, but because there was little to nothing he could do, he nodded in the end.
"Come with me," I spoke to William, who, though irritated, still followed me while also glaring at Spencer, who just attacked him out of nowhere.
As we moved out, I looked around using the [Space Time Map] and found that they were eavesdropping on us. Can't seem to let us go, huh?
"How are things with Dad?" I asked the first question to which he was a little surprised, but since my eyes were dead serious, his carefree, stupid expression also changed into a serious one.
"It's good. We were about to go fishing and planning to meet mom very soon," he nodded before asking,"we were searching for you. Is this where you were?"
'So my brother is the second regressor, huh?' I sighed in relief as I looked at him with a smile and nodded before saying,"Came here to check up on mother?"
He nodded again,"First dad, who is kind of okay. Then you, who wasn't at the university and finally mom," as he counted the three of us on his fingers.
"Mhmm.. let's talk about that later. How are you?" I asked as I observed my brother. It has been a really long time, I last saw him and even before, I just heard of him and wasn't really able to meet him. Good to see that he was doing fine.
"I am good. There were a few ups and downs but nothing I couldn't handle," I chuckled as I heard his answer before turning back to the room where the others were waiting for us.
"Al Meira(Be careful)" I spoke silently as my brother heard my words. He didn't exactly know the language that Alissa and I created together, but he still knew a few keywords and reacted accordingly.
We entered the same luxurious room again, and I spoke to mom,"he came here because he was worried about you. Nothing more, nothing less."
Though skeptical, Mom nodded as she advanced her steps towards William while Spencer asked,"Are you sure?"
His eyes were trying to find the tiniest sign of abnormality, but I assured him that he was totally normal, to which they all signed in slight relief.
"Let's go to my cabin, William," Mom spoke as she took William outside the room, leaving me with the others. She even gave Spencer some form of signal as she walked away, to which he grumbled but still nodded.
And as soon as mom and William went away, I turned to Spencer, who was already standing in front of me, at a distance of 2 meters. His eyes were smiling as he spoke,
historical
"I will be taking you to a special place where you will be blessed with the same power as we have. As for the rest of the things, I will explain it on the way."
'Hmmm.. finally I can level up,' I thought as I looked at him with a slight 'terrified' look to which he chuckled even more before both the twins grabbed my hand from each side.
"Let's go up," he said while it confused me as I wondered why we were going up and not down.. and the answer to that was..
'A helicopter?' I was surprised to see that we have a helicopter of our own. I knew we were rich, but we were this rich? Not something I would have imagined.
Though my vision was blackened as a black veil was put on my face while I felt an injection piercing through my neck.
"Sorry, but the secrecy must be maintained," I heard the voice of Spencer as a message appeared in front of me.
[An abnormal constituent has been found in the system of the User. Would you like to initiate the effect of the material or cancel it?]
[You have canceled the effect of the material]
And then I 'fell' down in the arms of Spencer, who carried me to the helicopter. While my eyes were closed, I could still locate the direction we were moving with the help of [Space Time Map] and it was telling me that.. we were going in circles?
We flew for about 2 hours before we were brought back to the same building which my mother owned and then I was carried to another room, which was the same room from where my mother came out when I first appeared here. The same 'business meeting' room.
Though, even after we reached the place, I was still tied and kept on a random seat there for quite some time. About an hour maybe? Before a flash woke me up from my 'unconscious' state.
The veil was removed and I kind of found myself in a dark room with the only light being thrown directly at me. It was like a room for interrogation, or perhaps a cult?
Using the markers, which I placed using the [Space Time Map] I could locate Erza, mom, the twins and Spencer around here. It wasn't just them, as I could feel a couple of more people within the shadows who.. weren't exactly strong. Around Spencer's level, maybe? Or a bit less.
"The Queen Of Darkness, I summon thee. Come here and bestow your blessing upon this creature of nature," one of the unknown girls spoke as she chanted some things and the space in front of me began distorting.
'The Queen of Darkness, huh? I wonder if it is who it really is,' I thought as I anticipated a little at her arrival. And yup.. my eyes didn't betray me as that being moved out of the space distortion and greeted me with her presence.
Angela Reas was standing in front of me.
And fun fact..
She was still my slave, according to the System.
