Chapter 331: An explosive meeting part 1
A week had passed. Kellen had watched everything, working away, as Brent and Casper worked away as the other two A Class Guides in the Guild. Everything seemed to...settle.
They hadn’t had any other incidents from the terrorists, but that didn’t mean that anyone had relaxed. His parents had settled into a new apartment, a few floors below Kellen and Rhys, but a few floors above Brent. They seemed to be happy, and once settled in, his Father had invited everyone over for dinner.
Neither Casper, nor Gunther showed up, and that alone told everyone what the tension in the Guild truly was.
Gunther was not doing well. Kellen was sure he wasn’t getting guidance, and that was affecting everyone. He had apparently already been unstable, but things were now taking a turn towards the worst it could possibly be. Rhys had to finally step in, and Kellen hadn’t been there for the conversation that those two had, but it had not been good.
Half of the upper offices were destroyed, and thankfully Rhys had predicted that.
He made sure that the floor had been clear prior to them going to have their ’talk’.
Casper, meanwhile, had been kept in the dark of this talk. In fact, Kellen had even brought him to one of the secured training rooms, under the guise of asking for a demonstration from some of the other A Class Espers, and the newer Field Guides. Kellen had wanted Casper there, of course, as the head of the Guiding Division. As much as Kellen wasn’t a part of it, the Guides were, and it was important for them to see that Casper was aware of what they were doing, and how they were training and changing.
The Field Guides were showing off their new weapon skills, and the A Class Espers were attempting to use their powers wildly, so that the Field Guides could ’get hands on’ experience. It was an interesting display, suggested by Brent, and seemed to work.
Casper had been impressed, and when things got a little rougher, and the building shook, he thought nothing of it. That day had been successful, and Casper had gone on, none the wiser that Rhys had literally beaten Gunther within an inch of his life.
