SSS-Rank Awakening: My Talent Multiplies Everything novel Chapter 231

Chapter 231: Ezra In Danger.

Time passed as the two siblings continued eating in relative silence, the earlier conversation faded, leaving only the occasional clink of cutlery against plates and the quiet sounds of them enjoying their meal.

By the time they were mostly through with their food, Lyra finally leaned back slightly and looked across the table at Kael.

"Okay. Let it out."

Kael raised his head, a faint crease appearing between his brows.

"Let what out?"

Lyra gave him an unimpressed look. "What’s on your mind?"

Kael paused.

"You’ve had that look on your face for a while now," she continued, pointing her fork toward him. "The one you get whenever you’re deeply thinking about something. So just let it out."

Kael stared at her for a moment before letting out a quiet sigh. He placed his cutlery down and shifted his attention fully toward her.

"Okay." He leaned back slightly. "What do you think about moving?"

Lyra blinked.

"I know you’re attached to this building," Kael continued, "but things are different now. I don’t think staying here is going to be convenient anymore."

"How?"

Kael proceeded to explain the situation to her, carefully choosing his words as he went. He told her about the attention that would inevitably come with becoming an S-Rank Hunter, the increased scrutiny, the organizations that would eventually start approaching him, and the problems that could come with having his family live in such an accessible location.

Of course, he left out everything concerning the other safe zones and the confidential information. There was no reason to burden Lyra with something she didn’t need to know.

Lyra listened quietly throughout the explanation, her brows gradually furrowing as she came to understand the situation.

"So you’re saying that now that you’ve become an S-Rank Hunter, things are going to become troublesome because you’ll have a lot more attention on you?"

Kael nodded. "Exactly."

"That bad?"

Lyra fell silent for a few seconds, seemingly thinking it over. Then her expression suddenly changed as though she’d remembered something important.

"Wait." She turned toward Kael again. "You said the Vice President of the Hunter Association gifted you a building in this Tier Zero District?"

"Exactly."

Lyra stared at him.

"How does that even make sense?"

Kael blinked.

"How did you get to know the Vice President of the Hunter Association well enough for him to give you a building? And since when was there a Tier Zero District? What the hell is even going on?"

Kael’s expression slowly became confused.

Given their previous conversation about moving, he’d expected this to turn into some sort of serious discussion. He had even spent time thinking about how he would convince Lyra that relocating was the right choice.

Yet somehow, she seemed far more concerned about his relationship with Vice President Jonas and the existence of the Tier Zero District than the actual problem they were discussing.

"Did you hear what I just said?"

Lyra rolled her eyes.

"Of course I do. We have to move, yada yada yada. That’s fine with me."

Kael froze.

"But..."

"I already had my reasons for disagreeing back then," Lyra interrupted, "but right now, those reasons aren’t an issue anymore. So we can move whenever you want."

She waved her hand dismissively before pointing her fork at him.

"Now answer my question."

Kael stared at her for a moment.

Then he smiled.

"Master. That girl is in danger."

"Varek. What happened?"
