Reincarnated With The Undefeated System -
Chapter 106 Searching For Aiden.
It was nighttime already, everyone in the Dankworth family had arrived home apart from, Aiden. The servants didn't go anywhere, they had been at home since doing house chores.
That was the same case for Hazel, she was at home throughout, she hadn't started learning the tailoring yet. Emma went out and came back in the evening. As for Ethan, he came back at his usual time, dusk.
..But Aiden hadn't arrived home.
When Emma got back home, she asked about Aiden and learned that he hadn't come back from school yet. She was a little surprised, but it immediately died down 'cause this wouldn't be the first time he was coming back late from school.
He had come back from school in the evening hour numerous times. Maybe something came up at school, he'd soon be back...that was her thinking. But time kept on passing, the sky was getting dimmer, and Aiden hadn't still returned from school.
She was getting worried, why hadn't he come back from school at this time? Did he hang out with friends again? She strolled out of the compound and focused her gaze on the path that led straight to their house and led past it...but she didn't sight Aiden.
'Where is he? Where did he go to? Does he want his parents to get worried again?'. That was the thought that ran through her mind.
She went inside and informed both Hazel and the maids that she didn't sight Aiden after she went out to check on him, and they became a little worried, what was happening?
It had gotten to nighttime, Ethan had arrived home, but Aiden wasn't still home yet. The moment Ethan stepped foot into the house, Emma walked straight to him with a worried face and dropped the bombshell...
"Aiden hasn't arrived home yet".
"What!". Ethan voiced out with a bewildered expression on his face.
"Aiden hasn't arrived home yet", Emma repeated, then continued speaking, "I arrived home and didn't meet him, so I decided to wait for a while thinking he would arrive soon. But up till now, I haven't sighted Aiden around this compound".
"Something must be definitely wrong, something had happened to him, there's no other explanation for this. He can't be at school at this hour? What are they doing there? Something must have happened to Aiden". Ethan uttered with a worried expression plastered to his face.
"Oh no, this is bad, my son". Emma let out, now, she was more worried.
Hazel, Alora, and Lydia were in the living room right now listening to Ethan and Emma's conversation, and they were also worried as well. Ethan's voice resounded again,
"It can't be that he hung out with friends again just like that time? This is too late, even if he hung out with friends, he would have been back home by now".
"Yes, I also thought of it, even if he hung out with friends, he would have gotten home by now. It must be something else". Emma stated again.
"I have to go look for him". Ethan said as he began strolling toward his and Emma's room, he wanted to take his scabbard.
He reached the room, took the scabbard, and hung it on his waist. It might be that he'd need to fight, he'll need his sword, that's why he took his scabbard.
He strolled out of the room, glanced at everyone, and said,
"I'll be back, and I might be back here with, Aiden...I hope so".
..And with that, he ran out of the living room straight to the compound.
He hurried straight to the horse he used in coming back from work, mounted it, and rode it out of the compound. Where was his destination? Aiden's academy. Though he'd most likely not be there, he should check.
As he rode the horse in the village square, lots of thoughts were running through his mind. Where could Aiden be? What had happened to him?
..Meanwhile, back at home, Emma was super worried. After Ethan had ridden the horse out of the compound, she kept pacing back and front.
She wasn't at rest at all, what could have happened to her son, her only son? The servants and Hazel strolled toward her, then Hazel held her shoulders and said,
"Mum, relax, nothing would happen to Aiden".
Hazel that even said that was worried, but she wasn't as worried as her mum. She had faith that Aiden would be found, even if it wasn't today.
"How do you know that?". Emma uttered glancing at Hazel.
"I know that, I believe".
"I can't relax until I see him with my two eyes safe and sound". Emma voiced out with that worried expression still plastered to her face, she wasn't calm at all.
"Okay, why don't you try sitting down first?". Lydia said to Emma, she didn't like it as her master was restless like this.
Emma glanced at her, then managed to sit on one of the chairs in the living room, and Hazel sat close to her immediately while Alora and Lydia just stood glancing at them.
******
As of now, Ethan was still heading toward Aiden's academy. He was still riding the horse with speed heading straight to Aiden's academy.
And he wasn't just riding the horse, he was glancing around to the best of his capability to see if he'll sight Aiden, but he didn't. And as of now that he had arrived at the compound of Aiden's academy, he hadn't still sighted him.
He came down from the horse, and the compound was just empty, it doesn't seem like anyone was there. He glanced at the edifices, and it doesn't seem like anyone was in them.
It was completely dusk already, they shouldn't be here. But due to his son not arriving home yet, he had to come check this place, maybe he was still here. But according to what he was seeing, he wasn't here, no one was here.
He strolled front a little, glanced around, sighted not even a single soul, then began walking back to the horse. His plan now was to begin searching around. He got to the horse, mounted it, and rode it out of the compound.
As of this moment, he was just riding around and glancing around to see if he'll sight his son. There were times he'll park his horse somewhere and begin walking around on foot to see if he'll sight Aiden, but he didn't.
He rode the horse around some more in search of Aiden, but he didn't see him. Right now, he had parked the horse in front of a forest, he wanted to search the forest...in fact, he was gonna search forests.
..He was getting more and more worried.
He entered the forest and began glancing around not even caring about dangerous things. They can't do anything to him...he was Ethan. There were trees everywhere, branches, leaves, and so on.
But he kept on going deep into the forest searching for Aiden, but he didn't sight him. He came out of the forest, mounted his horse once again, and rode it to the front of another forest.
He got down from the horse and entered the forest in search of Aiden, but he didn't sight him. And so it kept on going, he kept moving from forest to forest in search of Aiden...but he didn't see him.
Right now, he had just gotten out of a wilderness, and a worried expression was plastered to his face. Where was Aiden? Something had definitely happened to him, but hope he was still breathing? Hope he hadn't died?
..He'll have to go back home, it was nighttime.
He'll continue the search for Aiden tomorrow if he doesn't arrive home, this would definitely reach the king. He mounted the horse and began riding it heading straight to his house.
He was still on top of the horse riding it when he thought of something. They tried capturing Aiden when he was still a baby. Up till now, he doesn't know the person behind Aiden's capture, the person that sent those assassins.
He was suspecting the officials, it could be one of them or even joint stuff. But none of them agreed to his accusation. So up till now, he doesn't know if it was one of the officials that were behind the failed capture or even the natives of this kingdom.
..Aiden had gone missing again, he hadn't arrived home. He would have most likely been captured, it could be that person that was behind his failed capturing before that was behind it again.
Who was that person? Has he offended that person before that even after the passing of 8 years, the person was still capturing his son just to hurt him?
He wished he could know the person...and if he replaces out who that person was, the person would really suffer at his hands.
