The Author's POV

Chapter 463

Screeech—!

With a loud screech, the car came to a stop in front of Nola's kindergarten and I got out of the car.

Without looking back, I quickly headed for the kindergarten. Although the situation wasn't exactly dangerous as I knew what was happening, I still decided to pick Nola up. I couldn't quite trust my memories anymore.

Rumble—!

Entering the premise of the kindergarten, there were a couple of guards guarding the entrance, however, they were all too preoccupied looking at the sky to even notice my appearance as I quickly headed inside.

'Which one is Nola's classroom?'

Cluelessly navigating through the corridors of the building, I looked left and right in hopes of seeing Nola.

As I looked around the place, I could hear the panicked screams and cries of the teachers and students echoing throughout the corridors and classrooms of the place.

"Nola!"

To my luck, I didn't have to look for long as I soon found Nola inside one of the classrooms, hunched on the ground with her head covered with her hands.

I immediately rushed towards her.

Hearing me call out for her, Nola turned around and reached her hands for me.

"Brother!"

"I'm here."

Grabbing her by the armpits, I brought her into my embrace and finally calmed down. So long as she was okay, then everything was okay.

Raising my head and staring at my surroundings, my brows furrowed.

There were over twenty other children inside the room, and they all looked panicked.

Rumble—!

With another rumble, the classroom shook and the children started to cry even harder. Nola who was tightly holding onto me, tugged the back of my shirt as she softly said.

"Brother, I'm scared."

"It's alright, it's nothing major. Just a small earthquake."

Caressing her head, I quickly reassured her that everything was fine.

"Earthquake?"

"Yes, just grab tightly and nothing will happen."

Lowering my head and staring at Nola, I smiled.

"Didn't you say it before? Brother is strong isn't he?"

"Um."

Seemingly convinced by my words, Nola brought her face closer to my chest and closed her eyes.

I sighed in relief once I saw this.

Taking a look at the children inside of the classroom, I headed for the teacher that was trying to calm everyone down. Because of what was happening she had still not realized my presence.

Walking toward the teacher, I softly called out for her.

"Excuse me."
