Chapter 404: – Not Discovered

It was a narrative from the far distant previous.

As John stared at Grey, he started to recall the instances lengthy forgotten. The instances when he wasn’t even a young person but.

A “genius” older brother who may do no improper. One who labored like a machine and confronted no challenges, getting a full trip to school. And one who had been on the verge of graduating with scouts already lining as much as poach him for the tech discipline.

John remembered how Grey had ignored all of them for that final 12 months, delving deeper into his research and fully forsaking his household.

After which he vanished. With out a phrase, with out a clue. With out a lot as a textual content.

John remembered that his mother and father thought he was simply being distant as common. Grey had a nasty behavior of taking endlessly to answer to messages.

However then the college referred to as and stated Grey by no means confirmed up for his finals.

And though a search was put out, Grey was by no means discovered once more. John nonetheless remembered how his mother and father could not imagine it.

And John clearly remembered how his life modified from that time onwards.

His father determined it was resulting from a scarcity of self-discipline that his eldest son turned out that means, so he cracked down on John’s actions and compelled him to review, controlling his each act.

His mom grew to become tremendous naggy, at all times asking how he felt, if he wanted something, if he had any considerations…

John hated it. And whereas it received higher as he received older, he nonetheless despised how Grey threw every part away and disappeared simply to dump every part on John.

However John had forgotten about it. The previous was the previous, and because it appeared like Grey had died someplace no person may discover him… one thing probably contemplating how Grey’s finest good friend had died.

In any case, because it was unchangeable and never value dwelling on, John moved previous it. He got here to phrases with the truth that his older brother probably folded underneath stress and melancholy from being alone.

AND YET HERE HE WAS.

John adjusted the cuffs on his swimsuit, idly questioning if he ought to throw one other punch or two.

The silver-haired magnificence ran as much as Grey and rapidly held out a serviette, dabbing the blood off his lips. “Are you harm, Husband?”

Grey glanced at her and smiled, waving his hand. “It is high-quality. I anticipated this.”

John clicked his tongue.

…So this was how folks felt once they noticed him and Yue, huh? For some motive, John felt actually irritated.

Appeared like childhood trauma and grudges by no means actually went away.

Or possibly it was the truth that the closure John received turned out to be a lie. The grieving, anger, acceptance, and shifting on for an older brother John thought had given up on life turned out to be pointless contemplating how wholesome and joyful the man in entrance of him appeared to be.

However John took a breath and calmed down.

This wasn’t the time or the place.

And working as much as John to emphasise that was Jenny. “John.” She grabbed John’s arm and stated, “Not right here.”

John nodded. “I received it.”

An off-the-cuff go searching confirmed folks within the cafe surprised into silence. Not solely that, however just a few of the Undertaking MirAIs followers have been glancing between John and Grey, clearly connecting just a few dots. And…T/his chapter is up to date by nov(ê(l)biin.co/m

Wait. That one man was carrying an owl badge and lugging round a large binder full of notes and sticky tabs… Loreowl?!

Although he saved it effectively underneath management, there was a deadly and damaging power coursing by way of Grey’s physique and focusing in his eyes. One thing just like a ‘regulation of dying’ or ‘regulation of the top.’

Then there was his spouse, Eliza.

John shifted his gaze over to look at her.

An ethereal magnificence. One which would not look misplaced among the many immortals within the Three Realms.

And likewise one who wasn’t human.

It was completely different from how Qing’s fiancee, Sitri, was a Demon Lord from one other world.

She was a being made from power that occurred to take a bodily kind after anchoring herself to Qing. Type of just like Titor in a means.

This Eliza although…

An aura of dying wrapped round her, as if making an attempt to snuff out her existence. And consequently, her existence was hazy, as if her life may flicker out at any second. However she was high-quality.

Undoubtedly not one thing a human may endure. Even most immortals would discover it troublesome until they’d dabbled within the legal guidelines of life and dying.

…Or to place it in less complicated phrases, that girl appeared like she had walked out from the veil of dying itself and stayed in life, though dying was making an attempt to tug her again.

That truth paired with the way in which that Grey was now…

John smiled and stated, “Did you will have a pleasant journey to an isekai, Grey?”

Grey blinked and stated, “What’s an isekai?”

John blinked again after which facepalmed. “Proper. Forgot you have been a straight-laced and boring man.”

Eliza narrowed her eyes.

Grey seen and positioned a hand on her proper shoulder, massaging it. After that, he stated, “Cannot deny that. However you…” He shifted his gaze to John earlier than frowning. “…You’ve got modified so much.” After that, he checked out Jenny and stated, “Additionally, to not be impolite, however who’re you?”

Jenny did not reply at first. As a substitute, she frowned and stated, “I’ve two older brothers…?”

“Huh?” Grey blinked and stated, “Older brother?” He regarded again at John and stated, “Did Mother and Dad have a late little one?”

John waved his hand. “It is difficult.”

Perhaps sure, possibly no… The jury was nonetheless out on whether or not Jenny was really his youthful sister plucked from one other dimension, an alternate model of him, or the embodiment of needs granted by the world for individuals who wished Jenny into existence.

“TLDR, she’s my youthful sister, sure.”

“Tea El Dee… what?”

John groaned. “I believed *I* was old-fashioned with the instances…”
