《Branch Adventurers Guild [Dropped]》Farewell

Walking up from my sleep, I saw everyone sleeping together, the house is big enough, but it seems like they are going to miss it. I stood up on the bed and jumped to the other side without making any sound. I walked out of my house and noticed that it was noisy, "Hmm?"
Students, governmental officials, police offices, random people and elderly people were standing outside the walls. I walked out and noticed that the noise suddenly stopped, I noticed Jax on the side shaking his head, "Boss, they are here to thank you" Jax smiled as he said that.
"Thank me now? It is 4:30 am!" I got angry because the elderly people were also standing outside. "Boss, they know the time you wake up" Jax laughed as he looked at everyone standing out. Sigh, I looked at everyone with a complicated gaze, thank me? They would be cursing me if they knew what I did on a daily basis. "I don't know what to say to you guys, I don't want you to thank me for…" I was stopped by the students, "Dr. Ace, you have taken some time from your busy schedule and taught us your experience, not many do that… We want to thank you for everything, we knew you would leave today and not give a lecture…" A thin guy said as his eyes were misty.
"Mr. Ace, you didn't care about our differences, didn't care about the country but its people, you gave us a chance, and we want to thank you for that" A man with a black suit said as he nodded. I smiled, "I understand, what about you guys?" I looked at the police and elderly people.
"You have taught us online and ran with us in the morning, you even encouraged us to be healthier, thank you… muuu" an old lady cried as she spoke. I nodded and looked at the police officers.

"We are just here to keep things straight" The office rubbed his nose as he was embarrassed. Pfft, I held back my laugh and stood straight, looking down I saw that I wasn't wearing a shirt. "Well, excuse me for this appearance, I just woke up and was about to prepare myself for the flight…" I stopped talking, looking around I began to think of the invasion, who will survive? Who will find me later on to survive?...
The time stopped, a dark hooded figure appeared in the crowd, as he approached me I felt tired, but I kept myself awake. The dark hooded figure stopped once he was three steps away from me, taking off the hood… he looked like me, "Who… Are.. you?" Choking the words out, I looked at my other self-reply, "I am you, the 8th… I don't have much time, remember to destroy… Diablo.." The dark figure disappeared as the time went back to normal.
"Boss?" Jax looked at me worried, "Sorry about that, I hope everyone will go back to rest, once anyone of you is successful help out the people in need." I left them standing there and entered the house to prepare.
"Wake up everyone!" I shouted as I laughed a bit on their shocked appearance after waking up, "Get ready for leaving, we will be going early as I don't have to go to the university haha!" I held both my sides as I laughed.
"Uncle, you are evil," Sophie said as she was having a hard time opening her eyes. "Wake up now" I laughed and left to prepare breakfast.
An hour has passed, and everyone was enjoying their food on the table, I didn't exercise today as I wanted to enjoy my time, "Everyone is finished?" I smiled as I was sitting on the kitchen counter as I watched them happy. "Yes!", I nodded, "1 hour and we will leave for the airport, Cao this house will be under your name until you graduate ok?", Cao nodded.

I went outside to take a smoke, putting on the earphones, I contacted Rose "Rose, I need information, any cult, religion or similar thing that has Diablo in it… I need everything about them, place this into the most X list, split them into several levels depending on their fundings, supporters, and people behind them.", puffing out the smoke I heard Rose reply, "Yes master, It might take one month to get everything."
I ended the conversation with Rose and waited for everyone to leave the house. 45 minutes have passed, and everyone came out of the house wearing fancy clothes. The cars were parked on the runway, and we all boarded it and left for the airport.
"Emma, what do you think about our lives now?" I smiled as I looked at Emma next to me, "I can't explain it in words, walking up to see you next to me has been a dream, I have changed, and finally, someone cares about me… lives? I don't care about it, I just want my family to be happy, and my family starts with you and me"... why did she have to go sideways to explain that?
Looking away for a moment, I was pulled by Emma and was forcibly kissed on the lips by her. After a few moments, she let go, I was shocked, she was blushing, and Jax was driving… I looked at the back mirror of the car fast and saw Jax sweating hard.
"Well, that was a first" I smiled and hugged Emma with an arm. She placed her head on my shoulder and dozed off.
A few hours later we reached the airport, the cars were in a circle, and we all left them to enter the plane, everyone was laughing while Emma was standing next to me happy. "Jax, sit with the pilot," I said to Jax before entering the plane.
"Wah!" The kids shouted as they were finding a seat to play at, Angela and Yu sat together near a table while Emma and I sat at the back. I was silent the entire trip back, Emma went to drink tea with the girls while the kids fell asleep while the stewardess took care of them.
