After speaking with Amelia, Mia felt relieved, and knowing that Amelia was at Sanctum Aurea eased her worries.

However, she was still skeptical of the person who saved Amelia. But she believes that he could not do anything to Amelia as The Church has many strong people.

But then a few days later, another shocking video had her worrying about her endless.

She had been going through TwitFlick in her free time and she came across one short clip. It seems that the clip was gaining popularity rapidly.

It was a short clip of Dark Explosion that seemed to have been caught on camera and shared by the owner on TwitFlick.

What concerned her even before the video began was that the location of the Dark Explosion was Sanctum Aurea, where Amelia was residing. The video thumbnail depicted a destroyed cathedral and its surroundings.

"What? Is it Sanctum Aurea?"

Mia was taken aback when she saw the thumbnail of the video. Having visited Sanctum Aurea numerous times, she could not mistake the place for any other. She scrutinized the image closely to confirm its location.

"Yes, this is indeed Sanctum Aurea. Don't tell me something happened to Amelia!"

Mia thought to herself.

She was certain that the video that had been trending on TwitFlick was shot at Sanctum Aurea. And the first thing on her mind was Amelia who was staying there.

She clicked on the video, hoping that it wasn't actually Sanctum Aurea, or that she had made a mistake. Anyway, she believed that she would know more after watching the video.

The clip began with breathtaking shots of the forest and surrounding nature. It appeared to have been filmed using a drone, or possibly by someone who could fly and record from above.

As the footage progressed, it captured a massive dark explosion, and the camera changed direction to investigate.

Mia was utterly shocked by the next scene in the video she watched. She was certain that not only was the location Sanctum Aurea, but it also involved her friend.

Although the attack seemed somewhat familiar to her, she did not focus on that as she was mainly concerned about Amelia.

In the scene, Mia could vaguely make out a figure that looked like Amelia. Although the video was shot from a great distance and was not very clear, Mia was able to recognize her friend.

The people in the video were unrecognizable to most people. It was very difficult to notice them unless one had sharp eyes.

However, Mia was fairly certain that the girl standing beside the person who seemed to have caused the attack was Amelia.

Mia continued to watch the video which depicted the devastation caused by a dark explosion. The once recognizable cathedral was now reduced to rubble, and the surrounding area was unrecognizable, as though it had been hit by a meteor.

But the most shocking scene of all was next, the video vaguely showed people who might have been responsible for that attack.

"WHAT?"

Suddenly, Mia's reaction to the video caused her to almost break her phone. In the subsequent scene, the perpetrator responsible for the attack was shown, although not clearly. However, Mia immediately recognized him.

"Zero! What is he doing there?"

Mia exclaimed.

Mia was certain that the person was Zero. She had already seen his real face, so there was no doubt. Moreover, she was familiar with the attack he used, though the scale of the attack seemed much larger than what she had previously witnessed.

The video concluded with a blurry image of the location. It appeared that whatever drone or device the perpetrator had used was destroyed or had stopped functioning.

"..."

Mia Frostine stood there lost in deep thought. She quickly pieced together the situation and realized what Amelia meant when she said that the person could be trusted. She was confident because the individual who had saved her was Zero.

Finding Zero would have been good news, but given the current situation that appeared to be quite dire, Mia's concerns were multiplied. She was not only worried about Amelia but now also about Zero.

Observing the circumstances, Mia was certain that they were engaged in a battle with an extremely powerful opponent. Otherwise, she knew that Zero would not have been compelled to use his Dark Energy.

-RING! -RING!

Mia promptly dialed Amelia's number in an attempt to reach her but received a message indicating that the number was out of range. Despite trying multiple times, she was unable to establish contact with Amelia and eventually gave up.

In addition, she tried to get in touch with Zero by calling his previous number, hoping he still had it. However, she received the same message indicating that his number was also out of range.

"How aggravating!"

Mia muttered to herself. The situation was not looking good and she couldn't contact the people that she is worried about.

-WHOOSH!

She decided that she would need to go to Sanctum Aurea immediately. She didn't waste any time and immediately set out for Sanctum Aurea.

She was quite fast but it would take her days before she reached the place. She just prayed that Zero and Amelia would be alright.

After days of running, she finally arrived at Sanctum Aurea. Upon surveying the area, she observed that despite the signs of destruction, people were not in chaos and were working together to rebuild the place, indicating that things were returning to normal.

However, her concerns remained unabated, prompting her to quickly proceed to the location.

Perhaps due to the long period of running, she lost control of her strength, leading to a forceful landing that created a shockwave upon impact.

-BANG!

With a loud noise, Mia landed ungracefully, causing a disturbance. She felt embarrassed and regretful that she had been unable to control her landing, resulting in a mess.

Unable to articulate her predicament, Mia was grateful when Amelia and Zero suddenly arrived on the scene.

Approaching them anxiously, she inquired, "Zero! Amelia! Is everything all right?"

Her tone was one of deep concern, evident even amidst her disheveled appearance, indicating the effort she had made to reach them.

"Mia!"

Amelia exclaimed in surprise. Both Amelia and Zero were taken aback by Mia's sudden appearance. Amelia had not expected her to arrive so quickly.

Saintess Amelia thought that Mia was there because of their call a few days back. She had no idea about the video circulating on TwitFlick. She had been busy helping others and rebuilding the church and had no time to pay attention to other things.

Mia and Amelia hugged each other. Mia seemed relieved to see Amelia was okay. Then she looked at Zero who was wearing a mask.

Despite what he did, it seems that Zero couldn't hide his identity from Professor Mia. Even though Zero had a mask, it was not a big deal for Mia to recognize him as she already knew that he was there.

Zero felt a pang of unease in his chest as he saw Mia's gaze rest on him. He had hoped to keep his identity hidden from her. But it seemed that Mia was too perceptive for that. She already called his name as well, so there was no doubt that she knew it was him.

"Professor Mia, it's good to see you!"

Zero said, trying to sound as calm as possible.

Mia looked at him for a moment, her expression inscrutable. Then she nodded as if coming to a decision.

"Nice to see you too! I hope you don't run away again."

Mia's words were charged with playful sarcasm, her intention entirely lighthearted.

Zero smiled wryly at Mia's remark. He knew he had caused her a lot of worry when he disappeared without explaining anything.

"I'm sorry about that, Professor Mia," he said, keeping his tone light. "I assure you that I will not go anywhere, at least for now!"

Mia nodded, a small smile playing at the corners of her lips.

"Good to hear that! I hope that you are able to keep these words later!"

Mia said she was planning something.

- GLUP!

Zero couldn't help but gulp nervously as Mia's playful threat hung in the air. Even after getting stronger, he still remembers those difficult training sessions that he had with Professor Mia.

He would almost always get his ass whooped by her. Even if he could resist now, it seems that mentally he was scared.

But despite the underlying sense of unease, Zero couldn't help but smile at Mia's words. It had been two years since the last time they had a conversation like this. Previously, he was tight on time, so he couldn't talk much.

But this time it was different.

Amelia glanced at the two of them.

( Look! How exactly is this the expression of a normal teacher and student? )

Amelia thought to herself.

"Mia, what brings you here? Is everything alright?"

Amelia asked, initially thinking that Mia came because of a previous incident, but she changed her mind after observing Mia's demeanor.
