"Ha…"
"Ha…"
Noel was panting as he stormed inside a small wooden house and saw a simple backyard where a few kids clashed their swords.
The loud 'bang' from the door alarmed the kids as they immediately raised their weapons to stop whoever dared to trespass on their house.
But to their surprise, the one that stood in front of their gate was Noel.
"Eh?"
"Big Brother Noel?"
"You're back?"
The kids were confused and shocked at the same time. They were happy they could see Noel again, but they still couldn't believe Noel would visit them again, especially with his busy schedule.
Meanwhile, Noel was actually angry. His anger wasn't directed at the kids but at the Demon Barrier Squad's captain.
…
A few minutes ago.
"They're gone," said the captain with a poker face as if it wasn't his problem.
