I regressed and became the Sword Ice King - Chapter 117

Chapter 117: Chapter 117- Found you!

Chapter 117: Chapter 117- Found you!

Time had suddenly frozen for the Jun’s household after the death of their Patriarch, an occurrence that came like a meteor to their peace and tranquility.

A month had passed since then, and at one point in the past month, Raph had begun to deeply contemplate the actions he had done and those he had failed to do.

He could compare his current state with his previous one, but that would lead to little to no result.

He had to admit, his past life was one of negligence and narrow-mindedness.

He led a life with no goal in mind, thinking his sisters would take care of everything as they always did since he was little.  He had become a spoiled brat who lost everything in the span of twenty-one years.

But he was given a second chance to remedy all the mistakes he had once made.

One of which would be the matter of the King.

In his past life, he couldn’t find out the mastermind behind all the sabotages his family experienced over the years until it was too late.

After finding out, the royal prince at the time, Prince Julian, made a royal decree casting him aside as a demonic human, and he became a fugitive in his own lands.

Something similar could occur in this life if he didn’t handle it properly.

It could have been an easy decision to run away from it from the beginning, but leaving everything that you have built just because of a greedy King was not the Jun’s way.

Even now, after Gloria revealed the presence of his long-lost relatives, the idea of retreating was never on his mind.

They could only move forward.

If his father had died, then he had died for a reason.

He could at least find a moment of solace in that.

His father’s death wasn’t as a result of the King’s plots but instead an unexpected cause €“ demonic humans or fate trying to claim what Raph had taken from it.

The current King was a greedy man; he would definitely find the next family to become his underling if they were to escape from his grasp, and that would only prolong the disease.

They needed to cut it off from the root, but killing the King?

Oh, that was much, much, more difficult than he realized.

At the moment, he decided to start small, until an opportunity presented itself, and that included forming a unit or group of like-minded individuals, a cohort you could say.

Life is difficult on it’s own, and walking a difficult path by yourself is riddled with uncertainties and disasters that you would have to face alone.

Well, there is a time when a man must walk alone, but Raph hadn’t reached that point yet.

He needed friends €“ trustworthy allies that are strong enough for him to leave his back to while he faced the front.

Who else but the people who would become big shots in the future?

He would need everyone’s help, so the guise of a ‘club’ would bind them together and it would help reduce the number of betrayals in the near future.

Perhaps the club could bring them much closer than he expected.  He decided on choosing the name as Demon Extermination Club, in reminiscence of his past life.

Maybe to remind himself of the hard days yet to come.

“Demon Extermination Club?” Jane repeated, a puzzled tone on his beautiful, handsome face.

A small chuckle escaped his lips as they continued walking forward, ignoring the stares from other male students.

“Ha!

Ha!

Ha!

You must be joking, Young Master Raph,” Jane laughed out loud.

“What’s so funny about that?” Raph asked, puzzled by his reaction.  He had never gotten close to any of the Great Families prodigies in his past life, so at the moment, he had nothing but his sharp mind and piercing eyes to discern their actions.  “Well, Well it’s nothing.

I just thought you wanted to socialize in the case your family meets its downfall”.

His voice came out with pure intent as it always had, but Raph couldn’t ignore the deeper meaning behind those words.  Mother and son were alike, spewing out words like venom while keeping up an innocent facade, like priests.  He sighed.

“My family is a long way from reaching its downfall”.

Raph replied, as they finally reached the exit to the Hostel, which was a wide door, where two large hallways met.

One from the boy’s, and the other from the girl’s.

“In fact Jane, it might be in your best interest to join my club”.

He said, when he noticed a familiar female figure standing in the female hallway.  Her gaze flickering as it roamed through the line of boys that walked out of the Hostel.  “Huh?” Jane’s tone lowered, laced with annoyance that he had failed to hold back.

“The one thing I hate about the Jun’s is their pride”.

He said with a stern tone in his voice.  “Pride without a foundation is foolishness but pride with a foundation, and one as deep and strongly rooted as the Jun household, is a will able to topple mountains and split seas”.

His body stopped moving unconsciously as he stared at the girl, perhaps trying to discern why she looked so familiar.  The two boys stopped behind him, Darell noticing his gaze, while Jane was lost in deep contemplation.  “Tch.

I’m only here because you said Lady Ciara was a member.

I’ll leave the moment I find out she isn’t”.

Jane said with a shrug, disregarding his statement, when he noticed Raph’s switched attention.

He blinked, staring at Raph, then turning towards Darell beside him.

Darell seemed to be staring in the same direction, and with a raised brow, he turned towards the girl they were both staring at.  “Oh, the Darkpelt Chieftain’s daughter.

I hear she was admitted without her father’s permission”.

He said, recognizing the girl with Raven black hair, werewolf ears that perked at the side of her hair, and the black werewolf tail protruding behind her short pleated uniform skirt.  “Oh, I see” Raph said, turning away from the girl, and continuing forward.

‘weird.

I’ve never met the Chieftain’s daughter before.

Why does she seem familiar?’ He asked himself as the two boys walked after him.

“I heard she was saved from the Slave traders with Tiara” Darell said, turning his attention towards Raph.  They were both aware of who contributed to that discovery.

“Oh?” Raph began to slowly piece things together, remembering a certain werewolf he had encountered during that whole fiasco.  His eyes slowly bulged open, and he placed his right fingers on his lips, his cheeks flushing red.  ‘Shit!

I totally forgot!’.

He screamed in his head, his heart thumping quicker than usual.  Darell and Jane noticed his halt in movement again, and puzzled expressions etched on their faces.  “Um, Raffaelo, do you perhaps know her?” Darell asked, his tone laced with curiosity.  ‘Wa€“ Wait!

Calm down!

There’s no way she’ll remember right?!

No!

Certainly not!

Wait, Didn’t she smell me that day?!

Does she recognize my scent now?!’ His head was riddled with questions, and he was quick to come to the conclusion that he would rather not find out.  “Let’s hurry to class” He said with a startled, nervous tone, catching the two boys off guard as Raph increased his pace.  The two boys glanced at each other, confusion etched in their expressions, as their brow formed an arch on their face.  With a shrug, they both walked forward, when they heard some startling noises behind them.

“Hey!

Watch it mutt!”  “Be careful Elsie!” They were currently walking down a pavement, leading to a larger one where every student used, to go to their Lecture theaters.  Boys and Girls alike had come out from the hostels, and the air was filled with their idle chatters.

It was slightly rowdy, but the pavement was wide enough to let them walk through without hindrance to their movements, though not large enough for energized movements like running.

And yet, one female figure ignored all that and made way for herself after getting a sniff of the boy she had been searching for a week.  The startled voices from boys and girls, spooked Darell and Jane as they both turned behind to find a black blur pushing them aside and rushing forward, causing a small gust of wind to settle.  Darell and Jane were left in a daze, as they recognized the figure that rushed towards Raph.  “HUSBAND!!”  Her loud, and melodious voice echoed in the air, dissipating a feeling of happiness and excitement as the girl jumped into the air and landed on Raph’s back, wrapping her foot around his waist, and her arms around his neck.   She took a long sniff from the corner of his neck, and laughed out loud, her excitement palpable, after recognizing the scent.  A playful and carefree tone exuded from her voice reverberating with her next statement, as she bobbed and giggled on Raph’s back while he struggled to maintain balance.  “Found you!”.  CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Tofi_ Good day readers.
