Jin was walking back to his apartment when he got a call from Anyssa. When he picked up, he could hear panic in her voice.
"Jin! Jin, thank the goddess you picked up! It's Brittany! She...She's fallen in combat."
It took a bit for her words to register in his head. "What do you mean she's fallen in combat? Are you pranking me again?"
Anyssa and Brittany were notorious for playing pranks on him to make him worry for no reason. Recently, when Brittany joined the Aegis Corps, the pranks didn't happen as much, but they still found time to mess around with him.
"No! I promise! Meet me at the Aegis Corps!"
"Which branch?" He asked
"The main one!"
Jin wasted no time and took off toward the main branch. When he arrived, he saw Anyssa pacing outside the doors with a worried expression.
"Auntie! I'm here!"
"Jin!" She hugged him tightly, feeling relieved that Jin was alright.
"What's going on? What happened to Brittany?"
"Come inside, someone will explain it to us."
