[Holmes Family Mansion, Karoon City]
"Now what is he doing?" Charles asked, looking at his phone's screen.
"I waited for him, and he didn't come. He didn't even go to the Academy." Hu mumbled as he scatched his head.
In the past days, he tried find Rain in every way he could, but he couldn't.
He also ordered the information network of the Holmes family to lookout for Rain.
However, they only found a few traces of him near E class goblin's nest.
It was like he evaporated in the air.
"We can't even contact him. He just blocked me, and he even blocked you. We tried to find him, but couldn't. He really never fails to amaze me." He let out a resignful sigh.
It was already a week since he left the home without any prior notice.
Even though he left that gifts and video afterwards, Charles was worried.
"Calm down, Charles. You know he is a good boy." Carla, who was sitting beside Charles, tried comfort him.
"There must be some reason behind all this. We are also guilty of him for Kaya & Emma's incidents." In past few days, she also wanted to help in looking for Rain.
However, after Charles insisted her she had to stay at home.
"Just where is he? I hope he is fine." Carla wished earnestly.
She wanted to apologize to him.
She knew there was barely any chance to get any forgiveness.
'Even if he doesn't forgive me, I hope from now on he does what he wants and gets his happiness.' She thought inwardly.
After absorbing the elixir that Rain had given to her, Carla had become even more beautiful.
With her kind and gentle personality, she looked like a goddess. Her foundation had also become firm. Maybe she would soon break through to SS-RANKER.
If Rain were here, he would shout, 'S-grade charm!'
But Charles was there. He couldn't take his eyes from her at first.
He became even more overprotective of her.

[Staff dorms, Holmes Family Mansion]
"Wow, this post by Rain is interesting. I wonder how he's doing," Mark said to himself, smiling as he scrolled through his friend's social media account.
Same as Rain's parents, he also made a dummy account and started following Rain's ID.
Mark was Rain's butler for 5 years. However, he first saw Rain ten years ago when he first came to Holmes family Mansion.
Mark always enjoyed seeing what Rain was up to.
As he looked at Rain's latest post, Mark couldn't help but feel a twinge of sadness.
Rain had left the house a week ago, and Mark missed his friend's company.
They used to spend hours without talking. Rain kept training and Mark watching him from behind the scenes.
After Rain had left, Mark had started his training to inherit the head butler position at the Holmes Family mansion.
Mark's family had been in service to the Holmes Family for generations, and Mark had always known that one day, it would be his turn to take on the responsibility of being the head butler.
Mark took his training seriously, spending long hours studying the intricacies of etiquette, table setting, and household management.
He didn't neglect his physical training either. He was already D ranker at the age of 22. Although it wasn't as surprising as Rain and other main characters.
Mark was also somewhat talented and hardworking.
He knew that becoming the head butler was a great honor, but he also felt the weight of the responsibility that came with the position.
As he closed Rain's social media account, Mark couldn't help but wonder what his friend was up to.
He hoped that Rain was doing well and that they would be able to catch up soon.
Until then, Mark knew that he had to focus on his training and be ready to take on the mantle of head butler when the time came.

[Emma's POV]
Unlike everyone else, Emma wasn't interested in Rain's matter.
She was relieved because she got to break off the engagement.
Although it was unexpected, it was good outcome.
'It's good for both of us.' She mumbled as she slept.
She was too tired after the entrance ceremony.

[Arya's POV]
"Finally, everyone will get their answers," Arya sighed in relief as she received the news.
The weight of constantly being bombarded with questions about Rain had been a heavy burden on her, and now she could finally exhale.
"Today is a good day," she cheered, a smile breaking out on her face.
Passing the entrance exam for the academy's Dawn City branch had been a great accomplishment for her, and now she wouldn't have to deal with people constantly pestering her with questions about Rain.
Being one of the few people who was close to Rain, Arya had been overwhelmed with people asking her questions.
Unlike Kaya and Emma, who had escaped from social scrutiny, Arya had been an easy target for the curious people.
It had been exhausting to constantly field questions about Rain, and she had often wished she could escape from the attention.
"It was tiring to constantly answer questions about Rain," she thought, her voice tinged with frustration.
However, despite her annoyance with the constant inquiries, she couldn't help but feel curious about Rain's whereabouts.
"Maybe I should watch the recording of the live stream somewhere afterwards," she mused to herself, a small twinge of excitement in her voice as she contemplated the possibility of finally getting some answers.

[Kaya's POV]
As Rain's sister or you can say ex-sister, how could Arya would not take interest in Rain's matter?
She was curious. Very much at least.
Kaya stared at the post made by Rain on her second phone.
She had to buy it because he had blocked her on her main account, just like everyone else.
Apparently, you could only make one social media account a smartphone.
"So now this," she muttered to herself, her voice laced with confusion and frustration.
"He left his family, canceled his engagement, and now he's quitting training to become a streamer," she said, scrolling through the post.
"I wanted to become head, but he has so much potential. Why is he giving up everything?" Kaya couldn't help but wonder.
Although she didn't like Rain becoming the family head and because of that she used many tricks, she wasn't going to expel Rain from the family.
Rain had too much potential, he was loyal and kind. Also she was indebted to her uncle and aunty.
Therefore, she was confused that why he break off with the family and ran away.
But soon she remembered a thing and couldn't help but feel anger.
A few moments ago, she tried to watch the live stream.
However, as she tried to watch the livestream, she encountered a problem.
Rain had blocked her on this account too, leaving her seething with anger.
After cursing him for a while, she made the decision to buy a new phone and create a new account.
It was a hassle, but it was the only way she could keep up with Rain and find out what was going on.
Kaya wasn't alone in her frustration.
Others who had been blocked by Rain had also gone to similar lengths to keep up with him.
It was a testament to his influence and popularity, but it was also a source of annoyance for those who were left out in the cold.

If you think only these people were curious about Rain, then you are think wrong.
The news of his disappearance had only spread throughout the world.
Many enemies of Holmes family were trying to find him, so they could use his life as a bargaining chip.
Some people were simply curious. Even hunter association tried to find him because he disappeared from one of the dungeons.
"He surely knows something about the dungeons." The head of hunter association couldn't help but think about it.
That's why they were also trying to find information about him.
The black market was getting commissions about information regarding Rain. However, even they were unable to find about him.
Like this, Rain scratched pride of main information agencies.
But who in the right mind would have thought, Rain was on the island.
***
While everyone was dumbfounded about Rain's whereabouts, he was making preparations to start the live stream.
Rain sat in front of his computer, his heart pounding with excitement and nerves as he prepared to start his first live stream.
He had been preparing for this moment for some time, practicing his commentary and fine-tuning his gameplay to make sure he could put on a good show for his audience.
As he booted up his streaming software and checked his settings, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Rain took a deep breath and hit the "start streaming" button.
The screen flickered to life, and he could see the chat room beginning to fill up with viewers.
He smiled and waved at the camera, introducing himself.
"Hello, I'm Rain. Aka Night Soul."
