Chapter 176 - A lot can happen in one day

Itsuki looked down, only to see another Kakugane with serial number 52 on the ground.

"This must be Kinjo's Kakegane....Shit...not now." It was as if the glass container had started to crack. Itsuki immediately put the Kakugane in his pocket and sat down with his legs crossed. After months of training, it was finally time for Itsuki to break into the next rank.

.

It was as if the thin layer that was containing all Itsuki's Aura was getting bigger. After about 5 minutes, Itsuki opened his eyes and release the air that he has been holding in his chest for a while now.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully getting into the next rank. The host now has officially entered the Aura Prince rank. The host's stats have been updated after scanning the host's body.]

"___"

Reading these words, Itsuki for a moment was left speechless. Although he has to admit that he felt really proud. Now Itsuki probably can even move faster than Latias. Itsuki was not sure since he still hasn't tried his newly improved stats.

.

After picking up the second Kakugane from the ground, Itsuki disappeared faster than the wind itself when he sensed some people 100 meters away were approaching.

Itsuki's senses also have improved by a great margin. Now he can sense things at least 200 meters around him.

.

Mayumi who was told by Itsuki to run in the opposite direction was now anxiously waiting for Itsuki to return. She and the other people were now standing outside the entrance of the auction house. The police had arrived a few minutes ago and were trying to calm everything.

Standing at the corner, Mayumi anxiously looked through the entrance. The granddaughter of Drasna was still terrified but she didn't show her scared side to anyone. She remained strong and waited for Itsuki to return.

.

With the police, the journalist from different TV channels also had arrived and had started live broadcasting the entire scene.

5 minutes quickly passed, but Itsuki showed no sign of returning. As seconds were passing Mayumi was increasingly feeling more and more distressed and anxious. Her body was slightly trembling. This was the first time in her life that Mayumi had ever experienced something like this.

"Where is that idiot? Please come back."

.

[As you can see, the famous Auction house of the Kalos region has been attacke today. So far according to the claims of the people, a man had killed all the security guards and the Pokemon with just his bare hands. The police is now trying to control the situation and get everyone to safety.]

.

At this moment, Isaac's parents both Rui and Kagami were watching this news live on their TV.

"Fortunately, Itsuki didn't go to that auction." Rui sighed in relief.

"Why are you bringing Itsuki when he is training somewhere deep in the forest? This doesn't even makes sense. Instead you sho....Kagami felt his words get stuck to this throat seeing the deadly glare of his wife.

"Do you have anything else to say?" The Kagami repeatedly shook his head as if his entire life depended on it.

.

The same thing was happening in some other parts of the world,

In Kanto, Sabrina was watching the TV with a bored reaction on her face. Serena's mother, Grace was also watching the news in her free time.

.

Just as the sixth minute passed, Mayumi couldn't control her inner fears anymore. Just then her eyes fall on a figure who was walking towards the entrance.

[Look someone is returning.]

Just when the cameraman zoomed in, he realized who this person was.

[It's Kagami Itsuki.]

Hearing the familiar name, Rui, Kagami Grace, Sabrina froze. They couldn't believe what they were seeing. Itsuki was walking back with blood covering his white T-shirt.

.

Itsuki was happily walking back. This journey to the auction house has bought him so many things. But his happiness was short-lived as he found himself in front of the camera. Itsuki frowned realizing why everyone was looking at him.

Looking down and seeing the blood on his T-shirt, Itsuki realized that he had forgotten to change his T-shirt after his fight with Kinjo.

"It looks like I will have to come up with a bunch of lies."

.

Seeing Itsuki, Mayumi couldn't control herself. Mayumi covered her face with her hands as she tried to hide her tears.

"Thank God."

"Are you alright Mr. Kagami?" The female manager worriedly asked seeing the blood on his T-shirt.

"I am fine. While I was running, I got some small cuts and wounds. Other than that I am completely fine." The female manager sighed in relief.

.

The police were about to come forward to ask some questions but the manager stopped them as Itsuki was checking on Mayumi.

"Hey!"

Hearing the familiar voice, Mayumi raised her tear-filled eyes and looked at Itsuki.

"You're hurt." Mayumi's voice was quivering showing how shaken she was by this incident. Hearing Mayumi's words Itsuki couldn't help but show a bitter smile. If he had changed his T-shirt then he wouldn't have to go through all this nonsense.

.

"Don't worry, I am fine. I...ring!!...Ring!!" Itsuki couldn't even finish as he found his parents were already calling him.

"Hello!"

"Itsuki, how are you?" Did you drink a healing potion yet?" This was the first time Itsuki had heard his mother's serious voice. Before today, Itsuki's mother never showed her serious side to Itsuki.

"Mom, don't worry. I am completely fine. I already have drank a healing potion. Also, my wounds were nothing major except for some bruises and cuts."

.

"Anyway, I will talk to you later." After ending the call, Itsuki found Mayumi looking a little calm now. She had stopped crying but the worried look was still there.

"Sir, we would like to ask you some questions?" Itsuki noticed that grace and Sabrina both were calling him at the same time. Itsuki ignored their calls and went to talk with the police.

From then, Itsuki had to spit a bunch of lies. Saying that he has no idea where that man went and other things. Since the dead body of Kinjo had crumbled to dust, Itsuki had no reason to fear anything.

.

2 hours later,

During these 2 hours, the camera was mostly focused on him. After 2 hours, the police asked Itsuki about the Buso Renkin, and keystone, Itsuki told everyone that he has lost the Buso Renkin when he was running for his life.

No one suspected Itsuki of anything. Even if the police had searched his body, they wouldn't have found anything as he kept both Kakugane and keystone in his inventory.

.

After changing into a new set of clothes, Itsuki talked with Serena's mother and his parents to assure them that he was alright.

"Itsuki, I apologize."

"Why are you even apologizing? This was not your fault." Mayumi visibly looked relieved hearing Itsuki's words.

"What are you going to do now?" Mayumi asked.

"I am going to challenge the Santalune City gym leader."

.

"I see. So this is where we part ways."

"Yes, but not forever." After exchanging contacts with Mayumi, Itsuki said his farewell to the granddaughter of Drasna. Mayumi left the city as her parents were worried about her. While Itsuki went to spend the night in a hotel.

.

"Today was an exhausting day." Itsuki was mentally tired from answering so many people's questions.

Click!

Just when Itsuki opened the door, in the darkroom a figure tightly wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her head in his chest.

"There was no need for you to come here."

.

"I just missed you." Itsuki already had sensed Sabrina's presence even when he was 200 meters away. Sabrina used this incident as an excuse to take the plane and fly all the way to the Kalos region just to meet him.

"What I am going to do with you."

Sigh!
