Chapter 482: A Little Misunderstanding
With things having reached this point, Annie Belle knew there was no escape. Even if her parents miraculously agreed to let her reschedule or improve herself gradually some other way, she would no longer dare do it.
Baru was terrifying beyond what ordinary people could imagine, whether you attended training overseen by him or stood him up.
Annie Belle would bet that Lord Baru had already begun looking into everyone who had signed up. Probably no one would dare fail to show unless they had a death wish.
Karp, who had just returned home, naturally knew nothing of the girl's troubles. As far as he was concerned, today was an incredibly lucky day.
He held a heavy magic steel box in his hands, and his phone held a lively girl's number. It all felt like a dream.
His father had not yet returned from the pastry shop when he got home. Karp ran to his room and turned on his computer while playing with the magic steel rod.
On the Silent Guardians Forum, his post had already received hundreds of replies in a very short time.
The post, titled "Ordinary but Resolute Heroes," was mainly meant to remind people not to forget the heroes outside the Dawn Association: the soldiers fighting hard, the scientists quietly working away, the strategists devising plans, and the various officials responsible for maintaining stability and handling logistics.
Earth's current situation was the result of the combined efforts of all humanity, and even the planet's other living creatures. Karp believed that blindly glorifying Dawn while ignoring everyone else did the Dawn Association itself no favors.
Extremists and people who thought with their feet would always exist, so there were certainly plenty of people flaming Karp beneath a post like this.
