Re:START/If {Book 1.0}
Chapter 49: Mutual-Evit 9 of 10 “Has been taken” (Part 02)

The black curtain unfolds alongside the cluster of spring stars in the sky, as if wiping out the darkness that comes with the night. The wind blows softly, the temperature starts to fall because the day will start to change and enter the early morning moment. It had been almost 12 hours since Odo's duel against the Sculpture had begun, but the two people who fought had still not returned from the Dimensional Gap.

The people who were watching this afternoon did not return to their homes because they were still worried about the final result, but they went into the office and chose to wait inside. Light was seen on the windows of the buildings around the training ground, crowded voices were still heard, signs there were still people doing activities inside.

Unlike everyone who left the training field, near the storage shed a blue-haired woman sat on the ground folding her knees. He waited without complaining, from morning until that moment and did not move from his place.

Vil seemed to have no doubts at all in the look in his eyes, calmly waiting for Odo's return from the dimensional gap and still believing the plan the young man made. The purple light on the bracelet on his right arm grew dimmer when compared to the first time it shone since noon. His skin looked increasingly pale, the signs of his being in the Real World began to expand and his body was at first glance transparent.

Lisia approached the Great Spirit, looking sad at the blue-haired woman who had not eaten or drank from noon at all. Lisia did understand that Vil was a Great Spirit who did not need such a thing, but still the senses to feel hot or cold should not be much different from humans.

Slightly styling her short skirt, Lisia sat down beside the Great Spirit regardless of her clothes getting dirty. He gave a small glance in amazement at the loyalty of the woman, was about to ask something but did not so and just ended up slightly opening his mouth without making a sound.

“You don't have to wait for him here, just sleep if it is sleepy,” said Vil as he looked at the woman sitting next to him.

Lisia was a little surprised, immediately turned her face away and felt awkward. He was silent for a moment. The night air was getting colder, even so it did not seem to affect the two of them. Sitting closer to the Great Spirit, Lisia divided the passive effect of her fire magic attribute and warmed up the Vil.

The Great Spirit felt a significant rise in temperature, looked at the wonder of the future heir of the Mylta family and said, “You know, I am a Great Spirit with a special attribute of water. The cold has no effect on me.”

“Eh? Be-So, huh?”

Lisia's getting awkward. It was not because he was not used to talking to strangers, but because he felt guilty to Vil for what he said in the Klista settlement a few days ago. Guilt over the situation even now makes him lose confidence, bow his face and start moody.

“Trust on Odo ..”

“Eh?” Lisia raised her face and looked at him in confusion.

“Odo definitely won, he couldn't possibly fail if only charming the child of the Rein family was.”

“Tu-Tuan Rein has that kind of power, youh!” Lisia looked a little chaotic, her face showing the contradiction between hoping for Odo to win and being anxious over the fact that the defeat of Arca Rein too in a short period of time could affect the hierarchy of the nobles.

Turning his gaze away from Vil and slightly bowing his face, Lisia said, “Dia, Arca Rein even ... can open the dimensional crack and bring Mr. Odo into the dimensional gap. Very fatal in advance I do not suggest additional rules about the limits of the duel place.”

Vil smiled lightly and slightly understood what kind of individual Lisia was. Slightly tilting his head it thinly and said, “I don't think it's necessary ...” The Great Spirit turned his gaze away, gazing up at the sky with the crescent moon still visible among the bright sparkles of the spring stars. With a thin smile he said, “Odo has planned it from the beginning.”

“Hmm?” Lisia was surprised to hear that, she looked at the woman next to her and brought her face closer while asking, “From ... what start?”

“Duel it ...” Vil looked back at Lisia, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “Nona Lisia knows, Odo already predicted that the son of the Rein family will come to this city during the execution and will definitely cause trouble. That's why Odo chose to provoke him and challenge him to a duel like this.”

Lisia could only gape at hearing that, feeling that all of that sounded absurd. Turning his gaze and bowing his face, the red-haired woman softly said, “If indeed Mr Odo had known from the beginning, why would he even allow a situation that cornered himself?”

“Indeed Odo it's weird ..” Vil looked slightly irritated, turned his gaze away from Lisia and stared grimly at the middle of the training field. In a slightly complaining tone he said, “Everything that happens is actually just for a reason, lure the young man named Arca Rein to say ‘Iya’ and accept the duel.”

“Mr Odo .. expect this Duel?” Lisia put her curiosity into the words, looked back at Vil and asked, “Then .. Why is she angry with me? Last afternoon he was really very angry with me ...”

“I think Odo is angry for another reason. Didn't Odo tell Miss to take care of the Klista tribe? Maybe he was angry because of that ..”

Lisia flinched, she completely understood the reason and did not have a suitable sentence to defend herself. Back down his face grimly, the redhead woman said, “Sorry ...”

“Why apologize to me?”

“That's because—!” Lisia's words came to a halt, seeming reluctant to explain the contents of her mind and only turning away from the Great Spirit next to her.

“Hmm, whatever you want Miss to do and honestly I don't really care. As long as it doesn't bother Odo, it doesn't matter to me.”

“Eng ...”

The atmosphere felt a little quiet, without words and the blowing wind was getting more and more pronounced. Under the midnight sky, the two women sat next to each other and fell silent without exchanging any words at all. But when he heard the noise of one of the buildings that still lit the light, the subject again appeared.

“What .... Both Rein family's Butlers also go inside?” ask Vil.

“Hmm ...” Lisia gave a small nod, looked back at the blue-haired woman next to her and replied, “They are in uncle Iitla's office. The traders from the Lorian Union were also there, they had been arguing continuously...”.

“Because it's Miss out these nights?”

Lisia shook her head, stared flat at the center of the training field and in a somber tone she replied, “I'm just anxious. What ... This duel really needs to be done? Miss Vil also saw for herself this afternoon, ‘kan? Such a fight ... has reached the level of wanting to kill each other .... Why should the two heirs of the Three Royal Families be hostile to each other?”

Vil understood what Lisia was worried about, but he could not speak much about such a thing. The Great Spirit was silent for a moment without answering, then with the intention of changing the subject he asked, “If the Shieal, are they also inside? Earlier in the duel I also did not seem to see Mind and Imania.”

“Eng?” Lisia looked confusedly at the question, then asked back, “Don't they say they want to go back to the Luke Family Mansion first? They said they wanted to tell Lady Mavis about du—”

Crangs!!

“Akh! Is there no smoother way than this?!” lamented Arca while waking up and staring at the annoyed black-haired youth who returned to the Real World with her.

Odo immediately glared back at him, then violently snapped, “I haven't really mastered that dimension! After all, half the authority you hold! Open your own way home, damn it!”

Seeing them back in spirit, Lisia immediately got up and was about to run towards the two youths. But before the blue haired woman woke up, Vil preceded her and immediately ran towards Odo very quickly. When it was near he immediately jumped towards Odo, then butted him with a crown of the head.

Duk!

“Ugh!”

It hit Odo's stomach very hard and dropped him to the ground. Vil direct**** the young man, then hugged him tightly without saying anything. Odo had wanted to immediately get rid of the person who butukannya, but he undo the intention when he knew it was Vil.

“Ah, true also.” Odo looks on because of the ramming, squints right and says, “Time there is about four times over .... Eng, is the limit of the bracelet almost over?”

Vil lifted his body and remained occupying Odo's stomach, shaking his head and answering, “Not that...”

“Then why ...?”

Vil fell silent and remained unanswered, only staring in relief. He did say to believe or something like that in Lisia, but still the Great Spirit could not hide his feelings when Odo came whole even though he was now bare-chested.

“Hmm, I get it.” Odo nodded, raised his hand and stroked the head of the woman who was piercing him. In a subtle tone he said, “Sorry to worry you .... After this, can I entrust the rest to you, Vil? I've reached the limit .... Despite having cut off some of the safety circuits I used for the recovery of the magic structure, it remains that 48 more hours of continuous awakening makes me very tired.”

“Hmm ...” Vil nodded once with vigor, then confidently replied, “Simply leave me, Odo!”

“Thank you, Vil ...”

Slowly the young man's eyes of black hair closed and he went straight into his deep sleep. Vil held the young man's hand before falling from the top of his head, smiling at a glance seeing the young man could easily sleep with such a dirty body on the ground. Lowering Odo's hand slowly, Vil woke up from above the young man's body of black hair.

The Great Spirit immediately turned to face Arca Rein, looked intently at the eldest son of the Rein family and asked, “This just makes sure, the result is how?”

Lisia had only gotten close to them, confused by what had happened and a little anxious about the outcome of their duel. He broke out in cold sweat waiting for the reply from the eldest son of the Rein family.

“This is my defeat.” Arca let out an answer without any hesitation or showing an arrogant nature, her face as if she was truly admitting defeat like a knight. Turning to look at the blue hair woman before him, Rein again said, “I ... from the beginning of a crushing defeat.”

“Be-Really?!” Lisia instantly looks happy, with a bright expression she ensures, “Master Odo wins?”

Arca glanced at the little redhead lady, then in a slightly lazy tone replied, “Yes, Odo Luke won. From this second all what I have is hers.”

Vil stood right in front of Arca and brought his face closer. With a sharp look he asked, “You already know, don't you? You got that too?”

Sculpture gasped a little at the words, looked at Vil as if he had realized something and replied, “Yes, I got it and knew what Odo Luke wanted to do. Until we finish setting up this city and preventing war, it looks like we will work together, Great Spirit of the North Sea, Vil.”

The two of them stared at each other, as if trying to understand each other and familiarize themselves. Arca's case is almost the same as when Vil and Nanra made physical contact with Odo, shook hands and immediately got a package of information that seemed to flow rapidly into the head. From this, Arca clearly understood what Odo wanted to do to the city of Mylta and wanted to use the results for what.

The statue in my mind said, “Well, I have lost a lot and understand that Odo Luke is that type of person. If the woman really supports him, I don't think there's any harm in adjusting to his steps.”

The eldest son of the Rien family slightly sighed and took one step back, putting on an astonished expression and asking, “Then .., what female Miss Lisia called will be the secretary?”

The two of them looked towards Lisia who looked confused by the flow of the conversation. Vil sighed, looked at Arca and replied, “Not him .... For that part I'll explain. You know the rough details, don't you?”

“Hmm.” Arca nodded, slightly recalling the core purpose to dispel the invasion of the kingdom of Moloia to the city of Mylta.

Vil took a deep breath, looked at one of the buildings with the light still on and he replied, “Then rest there, then, I'll get everything ready and we'll start the plan in the morning. Odo also seems to be sleeping until noon later.”

“Not necessary,” said Arca while looking towards one of the buildings that still light up. Looking back at Vil he said, “They still seem to be awake. Let's just start the plan. Odo said also is not we this week do not have much time?”

Vil momentarily fell silent, digesting the words and immediately nodded in understanding. Sighing lightly and turning towards Odo, the Great Spirit said, “Alright. I think I should use that plan. Mind and Imania have also returned to the Mansion, most likely we do not have much time.”

Vil stood next to Odo who was fast asleep, knelt nearby and started holding the young man in black hair. At first glance Arca felt that the position was reversed for a woman holding a man. Shaking his head and trying not to bother about it, Arca turned to look at Lisia and asked, “Can you prepare the room, Lisiathus Mylta? There should be one place that those people gather now .... Odo told me about it.”

Lisia simply fell silent, nodding without understanding the essence of the conversation that was proceeding so quickly. The red-haired woman felt like an outsider who could not catch the conversation at all. “What ... are you talking about?” ask Lisia confused.

Vil sighed lightly while carrying Odo on his back. The Great Spirit walked towards Lisia and said, “Nona, can you take us to the Warrior Chief's room? There are traders from Lorian Union and both Butlers Personal Mr Arca, ‘kan?”

“Hmm, city officials are also there ...”

“Perfect!” said Arca firmly. The eldest son of the Rein family slightly put on the smug smile that became his trademark, then pointed at Lisia and ruled, “Our antar to it, Lisiathus Mylta.”
