Chapter 26 Moving
Serious atmosphere covers Nathan and Natalie as they face each other.
Nathan opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Natalie stopped him.
"Wait brother, let me say something first."
Puzzled as to why Natalie interrupted him, Nathan nodded, looking curiously at her.
"First of all, I\'m sorry for not believing you brother. Because of that, you even cut yourself to prove me that you\'re telling the truth."
Nathan was stunned by Natalie\'s sudden apology.
He stares at her with a dazed look.
Not noticing his reaction, Natalie continues talking.
"Actually, I also already read something like what you told me."
Nathan shook his head and continued listening to Natalie.
"Remember the book I bought the other night?"
Nathan immediately remembered the book that became a reason how he finished one of his missions and got the awakeners.
"That Illuminati book?"
Natalie nodded,
"Yes, that one. I first thought that it was just a fictional book. There were those words that I don\'t understand written there. But I just did not mind it much."
Natalie solemnly continued,
"But after you told me those things this morning, I took the book and read it again. And the thing is, I understood the previously unknown words!
"That was when a thought appeared in my head…" as she trailed on her words, she looked intently in Nathan\'s eyes and continued, "What if everything that you told me was real."
As if reading her mind, Nathan said the words at the same time with Natalie.
""Everything written on the book is real!""
After saying that, they look at each other.
And… laughed!
Hahaha
Wiping the tears on her eyes, Natalie smiled.
"I\'m glad we\'re okay, I felt bad when I doubted you before."
Saying that, she looks at Nathan with a relieved expression.
Seeing her looking like that warms Nathan\'s heart.
He patted her head gently, "You don\'t have to worry about it. I know that it\'s really hard to believe it, especially when it is too sudden."
Nathan can understand her doubt from before since he thinks that if someone told him something like that, he\'ll just think that it\'s someone with an imaginative head.
So after that short emotional episode, they moved on to the main topic.
Nathan was the first to speak this time.
With a serious face he said, "So, about that Illuminati… I actually don\'t know much about it. All I know is that it\'s an organization of villains that spread fear in this universe."
When Nathan completed the mission about the number 1 villain before, the system generously transferred some information about the universe, which is where the knowledge that he shared to Natalie came from.
Another information given by the system is about the organization Illuminati.
It was said that no one knows where the hideout of this organization is. No matter how much the civilized beings in the universe look for them, they are never found.
Being the most villainous organization out there, Illuminati also has the power and technology to support them.
That is why, no one really knows how big the Illuminati is.
Nonetheless, the fear they spread in the wide universe is already a testament to their ability.
Nathan told Natalie what he knows about the Illuminati as well as his thoughts about them.
They talked for quite some time before they stopped.
Before they end the conversation, Natalie asked Nathan,
"Brother, there\'s something that I\'m curious about."
She paused as she hesitated whether to continue.
Nathan nodded and urged her to continue.
Taking a deep breath, she continues,
"Brother, where did you learn all this information from? I mean, I know it\'s not something that simple to get, especially because we\'re just normal people."
After saying that, she looks at Nathan as she waits for an answer.
Nathan stood up and rubbed her head,
"I can\'t tell you yet. There are some things that you are not ready yet to know. But don\'t worry, I will tell you about it when the right time comes." He solemnly said,
\'Because I don\'t know how to explain this yet without revealing the system.\' Nathan followed in his head.
Natalie looked thoughtful when she heard that.
Nathan saw the time and said.
"Let\'s talk about this some other time. For now, we should go and have dinner. Also, don\'t forget to pack your things, okay? We\'re moving to the house tomorrow."
Natalie\'s eyes lit up, "Really!?"
"Yes, really." Nathan nodded with a smile.
"Yey!"
Natalie cheered, she ran to her room and immediately started packing.
Nathan just smiled at that.
"She\'s such an excited kid."
He walked to the kitchen while shaking his head.
After the dinner was cooked, the two ate as they talked about their day.
Then they went to bed early, excited for the next day to come.
…
The next day.
Nathan and Natalie are up early.
Standing at the door of the house.
Nathan looks at Natalie, "Ready to go?"
Taking one last look at the house, feeling a little sentimental, Natalie nodded.
Although this house is old and dilapidated, it still holds a lot of their memories.
That is why it feels a little emotional now that they are really leaving.
Their new house might be in the same city, but it\'s still different living in a new place.
They left the house with their bags and rode a tricycle headed to the new house.
Stepping out of the tricycle, the two look at the new house.
"It really is hard to believe that this will be where we\'ll be living from now on."
Natalie said in a small voice.
Nathan heard it and said, "Well, this is just a simple thing. In the future, we will surely be living the way we want and buy things that we can\'t have before."
After saying that, he started walking, "Let\'s go, we still need to buy furniture later."
The siblings went inside and dropped their bags.
"Let\'s go to the mall and buy the most needed furniture."
