The Hunter System
Chapter 228 - The Disappearance of the Bride Candidate
After completing the task and avenging the deed of the god Roa to him, Alvin goes to follow Mina to return to the village.
The two traveled overland unhurriedly, along the banks of the river that flowed towards the village, within the wilderness that became the boundary between the village of Korda and other villages.
On that trip Alvin did not discuss any more about how he could return to Earth, although he was actually worried about how he could live a life in exile without bothering Mina.
He still did not know how to have a place to live and food. The two basic necessities could not be obtained other than through quests, while only the official citizens were allowed to take a quest.
'And let's hunt wild animals and cut down trees this is allowed...'
Alvin finally remembered what if he lived on Earth. He won't have any trouble there. Both in terms of property, big names and...
'Cynthia...'
Alvin would not want to think back to the woman he loved so much.
Sighs...
...****************...
A blissful morning in the Maxwell family castle has finally arrived.
All the castle dwellers who since yesterday were preoccupied with the wedding preparations of the Maximus Group business heir have gathered in the spacious natural park located in the back area of the castle.
Invitational guests from the lower middle class have also been present earlier than the schedule of marriage vow readings that will still be carried out in the next 3 hours.
While the invitees from the upper class just attended the event 1 hour before the wedding vow reading was carried out.
Unlike the Maxwell family and the invited guests who seemed joyful and eager to witness the wedding vows, the Rufino family actually looks very busy in and out of the male-only castle where the groom should be.
Without Maxwell's family and the invitees knowing, one of the brides-to-be has actually disappeared.
Thomas and Raymond were the first to know about Alvin's disappearance.
Because Alvin did not come to the dressing room provided on the first floor, Vina asked the two to go to the third floor of the castle to pick up the groom.
Feelings of worry began to approach the two people when repeatedly knocking on the door of Alvin's room but there was no answer at all from inside the room.
Feeling that something is wrong, the two decide to break down the door of the locked room and how surprised they are when they do not find Alvin's whereabouts there.
......................
"He couldn't have escaped. Calm down, don't worry too much" said Jack, who had just arrived in Alvin's room with Vina.
He tried to calm Vina who looked upset with the disappearance of her only sister, exactly half an hour before her wedding.
"The talk will take place in 30 minutes. How could I not worry?"
Vina then handed the baby who had been asleep in her arms to Jack.
He then checked Alvin's wardrobe and found 3 jackets his sister used to wear there.
The jackets never even appeared to be worn after washing.
He also found Alvin's phone under the bed and it was very strange for him.
"His phone's under the bed?" Vina took the phone and showed it to Thomas and Raymond. "It's also inactive. Did he go to an alien planet?"
"But..., he couldn't possibly leave his phone, right? He always comes out wearing a jacket" Vina said, staring at Jack, Raymond and Thomas.
Raymond nodded. "He couldn't have left without me either" said Raymond.
......................
Meanwhile in the Maxwell family flower garden, on the seating of the invited guests, there appeared a teenage girl who came in the company of a burly man.
Since the beginning of their arrival, the teenage girl has been the center of attention of almost everyone because she is very famous for her cruelty in slaughtering several hunters and lost angels who want to disrupt the world.
.........
As a hunter who possessed strength far above ranked hunters, Miyuki has such sharp hearing that she can hear the slightest sound within a few kilometers of concentrating her five senses.
Miyuki actually came just to congratulate Alvin and the Rufino family after Rimi, who was in the form of an avatar hunter, came and invited her.
However, when hardly anyone from Rufino's side showed their nostrils, he started to get a little suspicious if anything untoward was going on.
Especially when he saw Marco Rufino who was agitated when trying to contact people from his family, but his phone call was not seen.
That's why Miyuki sharpened her hearing, trying to find out if something bad happened.
A quarrel between the bride and groom who will cancel the wedding maybe?
He finally heard the talk of some people who were about several tens of meters from the park. Confused people are looking for where the groom disappeared.
"Wait here for a moment" Miyuki told Bimo half-whispering.
"Yes? Where are you going?"
"There's something I need to take care of for a minute. Please take care of my chair."
"All right."
After saying goodbye to Bimo, with a slow and silent movement, Miyuki left the park for the male-only castle.
Some of the castle's gatekeepers initially intercepted and forbade him from entering, but after they recognized who Miyuki was, the guards trembled in fear and in the end gave way for her.
Miyuki then climbs a rotating staircase that will take her to the 3rd floor where she catches the chatter of Vina, Jack, Raymond and Thomas.
But, as he was walking briskly down the stairs, he finally passed the four people.
"Can you take me to his room?" pinta Miyuki on Vina without making small talk.
"Yes?"
"Your sister's missing, right?"
"Where do you know? And.., who..."
"I'll take you, Miss Nakano," Thomas said, cutting Vina's sentence.
Vina may not know Miyuki. But Thomas, who a few months ago made a booking transaction for a magic crystal transport helicopter at the company 9 AM, certainly knows him.
In addition, Miyuki's face has been known to all hunters of the world. There is no hunter who does not know Miyuki, Anna and Alvin in this world.
.........
Arriving at Alvin's room, Miyuki inspected the entire room, looking for if there were any traces of magic energy left there that did not come from Alvin.
Unfortunately he could not find any traces of magic energy belonging to anyone other than Alvin's.
'Is he really the kind of guy who likes to run away when his wedding is about to take place?'
["What happened?"]
"Geez!" miyuki exclaimed, surprised by the voice that had suddenly appeared inside her head.
Ignoring Thomas's puzzled expression, Miyuki spoke to Anna, who had just spoken to her via telepathy.
'The groom-to-be disappeared.'
["...That's bad."]
'When the woman seemed to love him very much.'
"They both love each other. It's weird that he left on the wedding day?" said Anna who was suddenly in the room.
