Capítulo 52: Embrace
The three people on the hill couldn't see what was happening behind the clouds and smoke. Even though it was quite quiet, they couldn't even hear the sounds of fighting or screams of death among the hundred people there. His Fire Magic was known to be the noisiest and most annoying magic because the essence of it was slightly different from normal magicians so that other magicians considered it a ''flaw in interpretation'.
Not wanting anything bad to happen to his future partner, Xavier plans to go down to help defeat the hundreds of people. There was no way he was taking Enrique with him when he was battered and bruised. But just as he was about to step down the hill, Connor was suddenly in front of him.
"There's nothing to worry about. Do you doubt Master Enrique's strength and abilities? Don't you know each other?"
Xavier was stunned. It was stupid enough that his actions were so embarrassing that it caused the Goddess of Beauty to laugh behind his back.
'Connor is right. Even I am nothing compared to Senior Enrique. With his current abilities, he could become the leader of this group."
Meanwhile, after killing the ten witches, Enrique returned to stand over the locals in the 'crocodile pit'. Their faces were panic, fear, and anger, all rolled into one. He was very satisfied to see their desperation and dependence on him.
"Take off your mask, you bastard! Face us if you dare!"
"Come down here and I'll make sure your life ends tonight!"
The taunts and challenges from the locals didn't make him flinch and shake. Instead, his hands were raised and his palms faced the hole. Slowly but surely, a laser-like red light appeared in his palms, ready to swoop down.
"Say it one more time or I'll burn a hole in your brain." His face was intimidating and his laughter was that of the ultimate villain. "What did you expect from that place? It's completely undeveloped and disgusting. Blame yourselves for setting the market on fire. Pray and ask for forgiveness and come back tomorrow as honest and trustworthy vendors."
They all nodded with trembling lips and legs. Seeing that light they could do nothing but scream in the middle of the vast empty land far from the village. Their reaction had satisfied their grudge and they were all about to start all over again from the bottom. In the next second, Enrique left them all there without rendering any assistance.

Although the battle was over so quickly, the pain he felt had not gone away. In fact, he felt no change in the physics power when attacked and ignored their tenfold greater numbers.
"It's a pity. I still wanted to play around with them. But if I waste too long, that guy will definitely hit me. Damn it."
Not paying attention to how far he had gone, Enrique could suddenly see those who were watching him.
"Master Enrique. You made it," Connor preceded with a happy and relieved face.
"Connor. I'm glad you did your job well." Enrique returned the smile.
"Eh, but..."
"Why? Did I compliment you wrong?"
Suddenly Connor couldn't see Enrique's eyes, looking away while whistling as if he didn't understand the situation. Xavier didn't even respond to their silliness.
"I didn't realise you'd prepared all this. When did you get good at strategising?" Xavier was curious.
"Strategy? It's not even something worth bragging about. What fool would attack them to gain recognition as the strongest? Simply shutting them up and mentally knocking them down is already part of the victory."
"You're right. Now, do you still have something to do? Don't forget we're leaving tonight."
Enrique gaped, hardly realising that tonight would help continue their mission. At that exact moment, Jack and the waiter caught up with them in a completely unexpected direction. The servant complained about how much trouble it was to bring Jack along. The underground passage was impassable from any direction.
"I apologise for my sudden decision. I'm sure you know how noisy I get when I talk about this person and the mysterious world. Although as a royal soldier, there are also frequent invasions in various countries and continents, still embarking on an adventure without being controlled by orders is the freedom of life.
"It will be a very meaningful life experience when I am already a chair-warming man in a small house. In the end, everyone lives according to their purpose. If you watch that person, letting him fly is the best choice.
"Now, I am very grateful to the three of you. I can't take too long to reminisce about our good times because even one month wouldn't be enough. There are so many events spinning in my head that I don't know how many moments I've forgotten."
"You don't have to worry about us, Master Enrique. We knew you would leave this village one day. Whenever you go, it is neither my duty nor my right to forbid you. Live as you wish, sir."
Meanwhile... Jack and the servants didn't let Enrique leave at all. His leg could have been broken tonight if Jack had pulled him a little tighter.
"You two. Even before Connor, you two have helped me so much. I'll never forget you."
"You promised, right? You promised?" Jack cried with tears already flowing into his mouth.
"Real men never break their promises." His hands stroked those who were still holding his legs.
"Have a safe journey, Master Enrique. May God bless you always. Don't forget us and make time to see us if you can." Enrique said something that probably wouldn't happen. After all, he had lost his favourite person since childhood.
"Connor. Make sure you look after them and this village. Now, I'm giving you my responsibility. I'm sure you can do it. You can seek my advice by letter. I'll get back to you when I can." Enrique pulled Connor into a hug.
There is nothing more beautiful than a warm embrace between true friends.
