Reincarnated With The Undefeated System
115 His Plans.
These warriors made sacrifices for him just to help in searching for his son. One of them is not going to work, the place that generates their income. Yesterday, all of them didn't go to work 'cause they wanted to help Ethan in searching for his son.
And today, all of them wouldn't be going to work as well 'cause the search for Ethan's son was gonna continue. But many of them had already done what Ethan did, handling some things and putting someone in charge of their businesses.
This was how much they cared for Ethan, this was how much they wanted to help him find his son. They knew if it was one of them this same thing happened to, he'll willingly help the person even if it means not going to work in the meantime.
..One thing that needs to be known is that no female warriors were helping Ethan with the search for his son.
There were female warriors in this kingdom, but they weren't even half the number of the male ones. But Ethan didn't care, he gave no f**k, he was satisfied with the male knights and warriors that were assisting him.
He reached where the knights and warriors were standing, and they exchanged greetings. All they needed to do now was to wait for the other warriors to arrive.
They wouldn't enter the palace yet, they would wait for the other warriors to arrive before they do that. The king just sat on his throne and was glancing at them from inside.
And one by one, the warriors were arriving...some came with horses, and some didn't. And in minutes, all the warriors had arrived as they were standing in front of the king's palace currently.
..Then all of them marched into the king's palace.
Entering the palace, the king said a few things to them, blessed their search, then told them to go. And they began marching out of the palace until they were out of it completely.
Then they began sharing themselves in groups once again. And after they were done sharing, they began assigning territories to each group just like yesterday...they were gonna search to the best of their capabilities once again.
And after they were done assigning territories to themselves, they began heading to the different territories. Reaching there, the search began once again, they searched everywhere to the best of their capabilities.
Once again, they searched abandoned homes, wildernesses, people's houses that looked suspicious, and so on, but they didn't find Aiden. None of the groups even got close to the main forest where Aiden was in.
If they didn't get close to the forest, then how would they locate the old edifice inside the forest? About two of the assassins were lurking close to the forest dressed in normal robes.
They knew the search was still going on, Asher had informed them about this. So they were lurking close to the forest to make sure none of the knights and warriors enters it even when they locate it.
..And there was a very low possibility they'd be able to get close to the forest.
It was good news for the assassins, it would make their jobs easy. The territory Ethan was in with other knights and warriors had been searched to the best of their capabilities, but they didn't find Aiden.
It had gotten to the point where they'll have to stop the search for today...they had been searching for a long time now. They started the search in the morning, it had gotten to noon now heading straight to mid-afternoon.
All the knights and warriors had stopped the search in their different territories, they'd continue next time. This was just so painful for Ethan, so after searching thoroughly again, they didn't still find Aiden?
The question that rang again was, 'Is he even alive?'.
What can the knights and warriors in the same territory as Ethan do? Console him, what else can they do? They've done their best to find him, but he was nowhere to be found. They consoled him and told him the search wouldn't stop yet, they'll keep searching tomorrow.
They'd keep assisting him, they wouldn't tire out easily. They departed from the community as the other knights and warriors departed from the different communities they were in as well.
After they had met at the king's palace, Ethan asked each group if they found his son or any lead on how to locate him. Their answers were no, and Ethan was so disappointed. They reported the situation to the king, after searching thoroughly once again, they didn't still find Aiden.
..And the news was so disheartening to the king, how long would this continue?
He could imagine how Ethan felt at this moment, he'll be so pained...why was this happening to him? Apart from him, he could also imagine how his household was feeling at this moment...especially his wife. She'd have definitely cried, and that was true.
..What could the king do? To comfort Ethan, what else can he do? They were all trying their best.
But he knew he'll try his best to fish out the person behind this if it was among the officials...the chiefs and nobles. That he was sure of.
******
The search for Aiden had been going on for three days now, but they hadn't found him...not even a trace. And wouldn't lie, some of the knights and warriors were getting tired.
Where was he? Was he even alive? If he was, was he still in this kingdom or he has been taken to another kingdom by the person that captured him?
These questions were running through their minds...even Ethan's. Throughout these days, Ethan had been so distressed, his household was also distressed. Emma had been crying a lot these days.
..And Asher loved what was happening, the current event...he loved seeing Ethan in distress.
The king had called for one more meeting after the first meeting that took place concerning Ethan's son going missing. And the second meeting was still concerning the same thing.
The king asked if any of them was behind this, but they denied it once again. Throughout that meeting, Asher noticed the distress on his brother's face, and he liked it, it gave him joy.
..Once again, what kind of hatred is this?
Asher planned on killing Aiden, but he wanted them to stress themselves searching for him. He wanted Ethan and his family's distress to last for some time. After he's satisfied with all these, he'll then take Aiden's life.
He wouldn't kill Aiden and hide his body somewhere or bury it secretly, he'll put it in public for people to see. He wanted Ethan to know his son had been killed. He knew Ethan would be so angry and want to find out who killed his son at all costs.
Asher would try his very best for Ethan not to find out it was him behind everything. He knew Ethan would be so angry, but he knew he would be broken as well...that would give him joy.
..These were Asher's plans.
He didn't neglect his captive which was Aiden. He kept visiting him with two assassins feeding him and giving him water to drink. Whenever nature called for, they'd find a way to let Aiden out of the chair with the rope still tied around him.
So he couldn't escape due to the rope tied around him. And the assassins kept a close eye on him while placing swords on his neck. If he tries anything funny, he'll bleed at that moment 'cause they wouldn't waste time slashing him.
These had been going on for three good days, and Aiden was suffering a lot from it. It wasn't easy to be held captive, it wasn't easy to be tied to one place for hours. He was fed up, he was tired. Sometimes, he'll just be asking himself,
'Would anyone come to save me? Or would I end up getting killed?'.
******
At Aiden's academy, Oliver and Ava had been wondering why Aiden hadn't been coming to school for the past few days now, did anything happen?
Their class teacher, Miss Alice, had asked about him numerous times, whether anyone knew why he wasn't present at school, and they kept on saying no. Apart from Miss Alice, other teachers had asked about him as well, the ones that cared.
..One of the teachers that asked about him was the mathematics teacher.
He asked if anyone knew of his whereabouts, why he hadn't been coming to school, and they gave him the same answer...no.
None of them had heard of what happened to Aiden, that he had been missing for days now.
..And that included Oliver and Ava.
