My Guardian System: The Trader

"Besides, we are running out of hands. More wormholes are appearing in some cities."

Said Chief Dix Marcel, seemingly having a headache.

"If only Makina is here, that person could probably do something about it." The chief massages his temple.

"Makina? The legendary level 10 Ex-human?" Miss Sylva asked.

"Yeah," replied the chief as he looked towards the distance.

Miss Sylva went back dispiritedly. If the chief was telling the truth, then all the hope to find Hansen was now gone. There is no way the military would sacrifice their men for a student like Jem Hansen, who had the worst Growth Potential.

When she arrived at her room, she let her back fall on the sofa while staring at the ceiling with a distant look.

She knew that it was hopeless now. In truth, she was well aware that there was an almost nonexistent chance that Jem Hansen would still be alive at this moment. But even so, she wanted to believe he was still out there waiting for someone to rescue him.

Miss Sylva bit her lips in frustration for being so useless. She could not even help her student.

She tried to think of something that could help him.

Out of a sudden, she took a tablet and scanned through it. She was examining Hansen's record. Miss Sylva felt warm at the corner of her eyes when she read that Jem Hansen was an orphan. No wonder those people in the academy could turn a blind eye to this incident. She thought so. But soon, after reading further on Jem Hansen's information tab, Miss Sylva's eyes widened.

"The academy could not hide it any longer. After all, Jem has a family," she whispered. "Regardless if he was dead or alive, the academy could not say no if I threatened them with this."

She could not put off her feelings as a teacher and as a person. Miss Sylva believed that a teacher was the second parent to their students. So as a parent, she needed to do the right thing.

On the other hand, through counseling, Desty was gradually recovering from the incident. What she did was abandoning a friend. She did a miserable deed to a close friend. Desty still could not fully forgive herself. Every time she remembered that time, her hands shook, and her body started to tremble in fear. But she had to move on. Desty knew that there was nothing she could do now. She could not turn back the time. It was an accident. She wanted to blame her classmate. However, it was useless.

"She was in a state of trauma. Who could blame her? She was watching at a close quarter when the beasts were feasting on a person's body," said the military medical personnel who was nursing Desty to Miss Sylva, who was standing beside her. She came to check her status. She learned that it was Desty who brought Hansen to their party.

The medical person continued saying, "Desty was so scared at that time."

Currently, Miss Sylva and the military medical personnel were looking at Desty from afar. Desty was sitting on a bench around the training ground, watching the other students in training while wearing a downcast face.

"Thanks to the occasional counseling from a veteran psychiatrist she slowly recovered. But still, she was blaming herself. If only she had known that this would happen, she would never have invited her friend at that time."

"Desty felt so guilty of what happened to her friend," added the nurse.

"I see, please continue supporting her," said Miss Sylva before she left.

It has already been half a month since the incident. Even Miss Sylva gave up on finding him. She tried to threaten the Academy, but it was useless. They promised her that they would do something about it, but in truth, they have done nothing.

Around this time, Jem was in a state of losing his mind. Not because of hunger and brain damage, but because of thirst.

He was now walking aimlessly with bloodshot eyes. Even the D-rank beasts would scuttle away at the sight of him.
