Ethan’s Cleverness

She was excited. She wanted to continue her training. But she felt that Ethan's safety is her top priority right now. So she stopped her training and rushed to Ethan's clinic as soon as possible.

She even brought lunch for him from the most famous restaurant in the entire city. She heard how everyone is scared to do any business with Ethan due to the suppression from Young Master Sirius. She thought he might be hungry. So she brought the most expensive food for him.

"You came here so early. Did you have a good sleep?", At that time, a voice rang out not far from her.

Lily looked at Young Master Robin and said, "Well, it doesn't matter. Little rest is enough for me. What about you, Robin?"

"I am fine.", Young Master Robin said with a smile, "I have a good sleep."

Lily nodded her head. She then said, "I brought lunch. Let's go and greet the doctor. He is still sleeping. So we have to wait until he wakes up."

"Sure.", Young Master Robin said. And then both of them walked inside the clinic together. Gustav and the other guards knew the friendship between Young Master Robin and Lily. So they didn't bother to interfere.

Both Young Master Robin and Lily walked inside Ethan's clinic. The head guard Gustav went back to his position and resumed his duty to guard the place.

But when they entered the Clinic, they found a paper made out of goatskin. There was something written on it.

——

"Hehe! If you are reading this, then that means I had long escaped from this place. Just because you people are well hidden, it doesn't mean that I can't find you. Now don't waste your time hanging around my clinic and crawl back to your nests😉😉😉😉😉"

Ethan even added emojis even though it was in the drawing format. He was from earth. So he was good at using emojis, especially in the Online Games he used to play. He always used emojis to get on the nerves of other players in the game. So it kind of became a habit to use the emojis while tricking his enemies and couldn't stop himself from drawing the emojis here.

Both Young Master Robin and Lily stood there stupefied. After some time of standing like a statue, they looked at each other and didn't know what to say. Ethan misunderstood the guards arranged by Lily as the assassins who were here to assassinate him.

After around five minutes of silence, Young Master Robin broke the silence and said, "It looks like he misunderstood your good intentions in a wrong way. The guards you sent to guard him were taken as a bunch of assassins who came to assassinate him. What a mess."

Lily gave a loud sigh and said helplessly, "It can't be helped. The doctor doesn't know that we sent some people for his protection. And when he wakes up and finds a group of suspicious people in front of his house, he will naturally mistake them for assassins. After all, an assassination attempt was made on him not long ago. His train of thought will run in that direction."

Lily shook her head helplessly and said, "It was my mistake. I should have given it a thought earlier. Then I would have left a note informing him that I sent some people for his protection. Then things would have been different for sure."

Lily continued, "But I was so eager to practice the Physique Technique he gave me, I was distracted and didn't give it much thought. Now he left the city. I don't know whether he will return or not. It is my fault that we lost such a skilled doctor. I shouldn't have been impulsive."

Young Master Robin shook his head and said, "It's not your fault. Everything was a misunderstanding. But what you said is true. He might feel insecure in our city and might never return. If that is the case, then it will be a huge loss for us."

...

While, both Lily and Young Master Robin stood in the medical hall speechless, in a forest, outside the Phoenix Feather City, Ethan was rushing away. He was going as far away as possible.

"Hehe, do you think assassinating me is that easy? I wonder what their expressions would be when they see that letter. I am sure that they will curse me endlessly!", Ethan thought.

When he woke up, he saw a system notification informing him that the system detected powerful people standing outside his clinic. The System also informed him that they were standing there for more than seven hours.

Ethan thought that they might be the assassins who were there to kill him. So he decided to go as far away from them as possible.

The way he is right now, he knew that he couldn't kill them. After all, through the System, he learned that all these people were Physique Strengthening Stage experts.

Facing one Physique Strengthening Stage expert was too tiring for him. And there were a bunch of Physique Strengthening Stage experts hiding outside his clinic. He knew that he had no chance of winning against them. So he decided to leave for now. And he will return after reaching Physique Strengthening Stage.

Ethan used the [Heavenly Steps] and escaped swiftly. He could mask his presence using the [Heavenly Steps] and walk freely among the group of people without being detected. He used the [Heavenly Steps] to run away without getting detected. This is the reason why those guards failed to notice him.

He thought that he had taken a wise decision. He was proud of his wisdom. But if he knew that those people standing outside his clinic were not the assassins, but the guards arranged by Lily, he will vomit blood.

After calming down, he walked toward the Sacred Wind Academy. He is been away from the academy for more than a week. Even though he was new, he was still the Librarian of the academy. So he can't be absent from the academy for a longer period. He didn't know much about the rules and regulations in the academy. And he didn't know how strict the academy is with the academy's rules. So he wanted to return as soon as possible.

But that's not the only reason why he wanted to return to the academy. He had another reason for his decision of returning to the academy. He looked at the System Notification that popped up in his vision. When he looked at the content, he couldn't help but frown.
