WAY OF AN OMEGA

44 - The Night Visit

"You cannot go inside without the Tower Master or her disciple's permission." The woman once again stated.

Yulrir got up and wore his mask. With a sigh, he went out of his bedroom and trod towards the entrance of the quarters.

"Elder Sister Terra is away?" Yulrir thought to himself.

"Aunt Jen... What's happening? " Yulrir asked the middle-aged woman who is currently holding a talisman pass which is given by the Tower Master to certain people especially those servants who she trusts so they can enter her quarters if necessary.

"Aahh-- Young master Yulrir. I apologize... I didn't know someone was tailing me and when I entered the quarters he was stopped by the Lord Tower Master's spatial barrier. Now he was barging his way in by trying to knock the barrier out... " The middle-aged woman explained in a rather hurried-way.

Yulrir frowned a bit and nodded.

"Where is Elder Sister Terra? " Yulrir asked softly.

"Ah!!! She was summoned by the headmaster for a council meeting 2 hours ago... That is why I went here to prepare a dinner since she instructed me to. " Aunt Jen responded politely.

Yulrir knew that his master doesn't usually ask anyone to prepare a dinner since she always insists to cook instead. It is indeed rare for her to order a servant to do it for them.

Yulrir smiled a bit and felt warm. She knew that her master wanted Yulrir to have something to eat when he wakes up so she had no choice but to ask Aunt Jen to cook for him.

Aunt Jen is the retainer of Terra for a long time now so she is confident and trustful with the middle-aged woman.
"It's okay Auntie... Do you recognize the man outside?" Yulrir asked.

"If I'm not wrong, he was the Headmaster's core disciple- Theo..." Aunt Jen smiled bitterly. She somehow knows the complicated relationship between the Young master Yulrir and Theo as she was also present when the Interacademic Tournament took place.

Yulrir eyes widened when he heard the name and exhaled helplessly.

Yulrir turned his head towards the gate. He felt complicated as he never seen someone as persistent as Theo. He was awed but annoyed at the same time. Because of the spatial barrier set up by the Tower Master, it is almost impossible to walk in as they please that even the Headmaster will take time to destroy the barrier alone. The barrier obstructs one to see what was inside it. The one inside the barrier has no way to see and sense whats outside as well so that's why Yulrir had to ask Aunt Jen. This is why spatial magicians are so valuable and formidable.

Yulrir turned back to the worried middle-aged woman and smiled.

"Don't worry Aunt Jen, go on and do what you need to do. I'll go meet our guest outside. If Elder Sister went home before I did, tell her I went out for a walk." Yulrir said reassuringly.

The middle-aged woman gave out a worried look but seeing the Young man's smile she can't help but nod inattentively.

Yulrir then jumped out towards the quarter's gate.

Outside the gate, there is a rather rowdy youth who kept knocking the gate with heavy punches.

"COME ON YOU SHIT OF A GATE LET ME IN!!! OLD WOMAN LET ME IN TOO!" Theo cursed loudly as he continued his barrage of punches.

Just as he was about to release another punch, a calm voice came from his behind.

"You can punch all you want but I assure you that it'll not bring that thing down."

Theo turned abruptly to his back and his eyes twinkled.
