Transmigrated With A Resolution System

229 A breach in the barrier

"Afraid? Ha!" Obsidian let out a laugh at how stupid that sounded and immediately dismissed it with the wave of his hand.

They weren't talking about a human, nor any creature still unknown to them, but rather the most feared one in the whole of Arkai.

Here they got a human that had not just tamed one, but four?! He could only imagine the four dragons summoned out, it would be disastrous for anyone who would be a victim of such carnage.

"If you would love to witness their wonderful heartwarming height or should I say warm personality, feel free to do so without a valid reason for seeing them." Obsidian encouraged, raising his hands in surrender.

Lank tilted his head, "how were you able to see the dragon?"

'F*ck! You just had to speak!' Obsidian scolded his lips for putting him in the mess–he would only disgrace himself if he recalls where.

"He decided to sneak up on me when I told you all to stay put. Guess what happened next." Nix answered with the corner of his lips raised in mischief.

Lank was more than curious about what happened next, it would seem that Obsidian was trying to hide something from him that might as well embarrass him.

"No!" Obsidian shook his head, sprinting towards Nix so he could silence him.

Bang!

He crashed into an invisible forcefield and was pushed back.

Lank ducked just in time to dodge the fast-approaching body of Obsidian who could have collided with him.

Nix had a smug look now, making a gun gesture with his fingers and blowing on his index and middle fingers.

"Boom goes the target!" Nix snickered in mischief. Shoving his fingers into his pocket and gave a bright smile to Lank.

"How the heck were you able to hide such a gift so well?" Lank gawked, looking over to a groaning Obsidian trying to get to his feet.

Nix shrugged at the answer. Leaning forward and placing his elbows on his thighs, he prepared to speak about what he had wanted to say for a while.

"Raiken played with Obsidian, you needed to see how scared shit he was," Nix spoke and burst into a peal of laughter.

Obsidian pouted and his ears flattened, "you suck!"

Nix raised his brows to the word but did not comment.

He had more pressing issues to focus on that involved getting the hell out of the organization. He had a few options on where to go but the most prominent option was the very place the organization was yet to discover–Fegan's cottage.

"Have you ever wished to live the wild life, without any rules?" Nix began, pausing and expecting an answer.

"Let me guess, you want to hear yes–"

Nix clapped his hands and nodded his head, taking his words as the answer he needed to proceed. "It would turn out I know a resort that is not popularly known and also has Ninja and a sculptor."

"A sculptor with curses, perhaps?" Lank hinted at what he had heard at the time.

Nix pushed back in shock and disbelief at what he heard. "How the heck do you know something about that pair?"

Lank scrunched up his nose and looked to his side uninterested. If Nix thought he could just ask him questions and expected an answer so easily, then he was wrong.

He had been kept in the dark on some things, it was only fair Nix had the same share of the experience.

The silent treatment only frustrated Nix, crawling towards Lank. "Lank, care to explain what you had suggested?" He spoke through gritted teeth and a ruse smile.

"I don't know what you're talking about, I was praised back in the day for my excellent guessing skills."

Understanding that Lank wasn't ready to divulge the information. He could rightly place the time and place he had said such a description–the first time he was at Lank's dorm in the academy.

'Stupid, stupid!' Nix scolded himself in his thoughts at how careless he was back then. He could remember Mune warning him, but he hadn't listened.

"You must have done a great job in the guessing games." Nix played along, giving an eye-shut smile.

If they needed to move on with the conversation, no way could be done if he was lost in the numerous timelines of what-ifs.

Lank's face fell at how well Nix had taken the news, "you aren't curious about how I could guess that?"

"You're a good guesser and had rightly gotten the hint, good job." Nix patted his shoulder and nodded his head.

Lank's lips slightly gaped open in disbelief.

"I had a bit of an adventure at one point in my life, it would interest you to know how beautiful my pal's home is." Nix bragged, confident that they could make that their home.

"I don't care, wherever you are, count me in." Obsidian chimed in.

"That goes for me too." Lank nodded his head.

"How do you think the others would take this news?" Nix asked a bit worried about changing the environment a few weeks in.

"You gotta ask to know, right?" Lank shrugged.

They all slowly looked towards the door, contemplating their next action.

–––––––––––

In Fegan's Cottage,

"Hana!" Fegan called in a loud voice, pulling his feet off the footstool and placing it on the floor.

There was something eerie about the silence that made his heart pound in worry.

Pushing up from the seat, he got to his seat in a hurry. "Hana! Why aren't you responding?!"

Creating two puppets, he placed his hands on their faces and channeled his thoughts into them.

'Go find my daughter!'

Their eyes glowed red and gave a nod to the order.

Whoosh!

Even though he had sent them off to search for her, a part of him still needed to find out the cause personally.

Pushing open the door, he sprinted into the forest in hopes of seeing her in her favorite spot in the forest.

–––––––––––

"Ha!" Hana laughed out, kicking on a body below her feet. Wiping the blood off her lips, she held onto the spaghetti strap of her black bodycon dress.

She had managed to overpower her opponent, a strange creature that she had never seen since her hunting days outside the protective barrier surrounding their territory.

As she stared at the green creature dressed in a hooded coat, trousers, gloves, and shoes, all made from the mail which covered the majority of its body.

'How were you able to find this place leading towards my father's barrier?' Hana frowned at how strong her opponent was.

Her projectiles had done nothing to this creature that had a protective mail over its body. The only way was to target its exposed face, but that had been the one thing that had proven as difficult as trying to take a shot at a fast-moving target.

She looked towards the sky and thought of the first person that had defeated her so effortlessly, "how are you holding up Nix? I hope you are having it better than we are?"

Shaking her head and let out a laugh at how disheartened she felt on remembering just that bit of her life.

Gasp!

Her body froze when she felt a hand be placed on her shoulder. Recovering easily, she held onto the hand and flipped the person over her shoulder, drawing out her kunai to defend herself.

"Hana, it's me..." Fegan called out with a groan, forcing himself up.

He had been so glad to see she was alright at a distance and had wanted to pull her for a hug when he placed his hand on her shoulder, "your reflexes have improved since then."

Hana let out a sigh at the sight of her father, then when she realized it was he who she had flipped, she sprinted to assist him as he stood.

"Father, don't scare me like that again, I could have broken your wrist if I wasn't curious to see your face first." She scolded him for sneaking and asking for an ass-whooping.

"Next time, do break it. Don't allow your opponent to make a comeback, especially if their ability is associated with making use of their hands." Fegan retorted and let out a groan as he straightened his back.

Hana winced at the sound, "don't say that kind of stuff if you were involved."

Not wanting to argue with her, Fegan nodded his head to her words.

"I was worried about your safety, why are you–" he paused the moment when he saw a strange green body from the corner of his eyes.

Pulling away from her, he limped towards the body and stared wide-eyed at the creature. Losing his composure, he dropped to the floor with his limbs trembling.

Hana came up from behind and wondered why he was reacting strangely. "It's dead, you don't need to worry. I had managed to kill it before it could spot our barrier."

She had thought he was shaken up by that and had tried to comfort him.

"How could this be?!!" He exclaimed, punching on the floor in suppressed rage.
