Chapter 508: Back Home?
I would like to officially inform all my readers that I have started writing a new story called Heavy Metal [ A Monster Evolution LitRPG ]“Master, how can I assist you?”
“Contact the Institute. I need to speak with Arion.”
“Please wait, executing task...”
A small glowing orb of light floated in front of Roland’s face. It was Sebastian, the artificial spirit of his workshop, who had recently begun learning new words. Sebastian functioned much like an AI. While he carried out the task, Roland focused on trying to understand why he couldn’t locate one particular person at home. He even connected to the city’s monitoring system but still couldn’t track down his missing friend.
"Is everything alright? Are there more enemies nearby?"
Before Roland could resume his search, he heard a voice call out from the side. After turning his head, he saw his brother Robert and Robert’s companion, Lucille, standing together, holding hands. Robert had removed his hobgoblin mask and parts of his armor. Roland quickly realized why they seemed concerned as he must have looked strange, pacing around and shouting orders to a glowing orb, as if there was an imminent threat.
"No, you can both relax. This place is safe. We're back in Albrook, at my home. We're just underground. Count Graham won't be able to find you here, nor will Wentworth Arden. These are Valerian lands. Even if they wanted to track you, it would be extremely difficult for them to get here."
