Chapter 50: Mutual-Evit 10 of 10 “To ...” (Part 04)
“Crazy justice?” The eldest son of the Rein family put on a puzzled expression, tilted his head and could not catch the question well.
“That, sort of an anarchist upholds his own justice to the point of making others suffer. Origin of catching the wrong without considering the consequences of a balance that could collapse ...”
The brunette youth understood what Odo meant, with the intention of insinuating he asked, “Like ... The Great Spirit who accompanies you?”
“Uwah, if Vil hears that he must have thrown you with a water spear. Well, one example is indeed him.”
“Why do you think I'm not that type of person?” ask Arca.
“Simple .... While in the lobby of the inn, you've got the information to throw everything in there. But, you didn't do it right away and instead chose to wait for me to talk. You're looking for another way out of that ..”
“Can I do that just for fun.” Arca put on a dislike expression with the remark, as if Odo knew his nature very clearly. In a tone as if looking for an excuse, Arca said, “You know, serving the nobles is boring. I was just looking for a challenge by pressing you like that.”
“Hmm, that's a lie. If lying at least make sure.”
“Tch! You really suck.”
“Sorry, sorry. I know it. So, here's my request. Fulfill the woman's wishes, use her powers for this kind of communication tool. Simple and effective, ‘kan?”
Arca held her own head and thought for a moment, considering the negative, positive, and the risks involved if she did what Odo ordered. Feeling more of a risk, the young man from the Rein family again refuted, “You know, Odo .... His family is very bad, a genuine criminal and a rotten trader. It was not like a trade union in this city, but it was completely rotten to the inside. Just so you know! At trial! The bastard, the father of this woman, he did not even hesitate to pawn his two daughters.”
While Odo's voice was not heard, it did need to weigh after hearing this. “Sorry, Arca. I can't judge people with just such a description. After all, it's just your perception .... I can't put it in the calculation. The only information I got was about the woman you were going to throw away, I talked to her once and understood her nature. I don't think my request is too burdensome. Eng .., if you still can't, just release her sister. I think little kids can still be tolerated, right?”
Elulu, who also heard that, was immediately astonished, not understanding why the young man from the Luke family had asked for it. Sculpture at a glance saw the change in expression of the woman, then sighed and asked again, “What are you doing to help this woman? He ... the one who leaked all your information to me, youh!”
“Do you remember what I said? That's ..., when I talked to my mom in front of the main office of the barracks .... I just don't want revenge. If you do something like that to the woman in front of you, you will be stabbed one day. You know, I'm the one who's always been thinking about that, even getting stabbed in the back. I'm just worried.”
“Worry to me? Hah, that's right!” mind Sculpture.
“Hahah, I mean it, loh. Just so you know, I quite like the type of person like you. Don't misunderstand me, yeah! Not direction to it, but just to as a colleague.”
“Rekan ..?”
Sculpture was never anyone who thought of it that way. The Rein family was one of the Three Royal Families specifically tasked with helping the King govern and maintain the political stability of the nobles. During his lifetime, in such a world the Sculptor never found a figure that could be considered a peer. Enemies and subordinates who had always been around, of course his parents were the exception.
“Arca, neat or as good as any plan I make, it's impossible to do alone. I need someone else, even more so with my condition like this.”
Arca quipped, “It's your own fault that Madame Mavis got angry and to such a cry! Tch! Is there no better way ..?”
“It ... I can't think of anything else. That way is the best choice. Just so you know, this doesn't mean I like to make my own parents cry.”
The statue momentarily fell silent, bowing its face and twirling the black bracelet with its index finger tip. Grasping that, the brunette youth said, “Hah, alright. I'll do your orders, I'll arrange for this little sister to be free. But! Her sister will come under my watch as a guarantee so that this woman does not betray, do you have no problem with that, Odo?”
Elulu who heard this immediately put on a relieved expression even though in the mind still left a sense of anxiety. The two Butlers personally Arca simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the choice was indeed in accordance with the existing conditions and the woman deserved such a reward for her hard work despite the failure.
“Arca ..., I warned .... Oh, that's it, whatever. That's all I want to say, please order the woman to turn off the power—”
“Wait!” said Arca firmly.
“Eng? What?”
The statue momentarily fell silent, sighed and stomped both its legs to the floor. In a slightly hesitant tone, he asked, “Did you also know why I was looking for trouble with you, Odo? Is that why you challenged me to a duel and dragged me into this situation?”
“Eng, when fishing you duel I don't know. But when you received it, I immediately knew the reason the person who was supposed to play behind the scenes was willing to challenge me from the front like that.”
“Hmm?” Arca wonderfully asked, “What was the matter when I accepted your challenge?”
“You don't remember? Eng, plug ear— Ah, this power directly sends sound so the ears are not too necessary, yes. Eng, just listen carefully to this. When will you accept my challenge ..... Arca, you said ‘I misjudged you! You are rubbish! Why has Father always praised people like you!!’ very loudly. Back then I understood why you were after me and the people I was related to.”
“So, yes ...” A fleeting statue grinned, not with pride but with pleasure. In a relaxed tone, he said, “Other times I should not be easily carried away by such emotions. I can't believe just from that you can know straight away.”
“So, do I fit the criteria, o scales ..?”
“Yes, you're more than enough, you fucking crap!”
“Hmm, thank you. May we be friends?”
“Eh?! Why suddenly! Disgusting!” said Arca annoyed. His face slightly blushed, feeling a little disgusted at hearing that but he felt not too bad to get a friend.
“Ah, brutal. I'm serious, loh. Just so you know, I've never had a conversation partner who could be debated like that. Although there is, it's a woman.”
Sculpt's forehead shriveled, then angrily said, “You like to look for trouble, huh? Fucking basics ...”
“Not really. All I like is magic and my family .... Oh, aye. I forgot to add something.”
“Add? “ Arca began to worry about the time he had, shook his head and restlessly said, “You are yes, the agenda you gave is full!”
“It's not heavy, really. Not mandatory ...”
“Hah, say!”
“If you have time, please check the furniture in the craftsman district. There may be good furniture at a low price, so I can adjust the budget.”
“The budget is my money, oi!” Arca looks annoyed, he rudely says, “You didn't give me any money at all, ‘ did you? Basic damn!”
“In the bracelet there is money. Not money anyway, more precisely the best quality magic crystal.”
“Eh?” Arca looked at the bracelet she was holding, staring flatly as she could do absolutely nothing with it.
“Nih person ...” Arca was quite offended by that.
“If your personal Butler? Can they?”
“Eng, can you, Ligh? Logi?”
The statue shows the bracelet to his two personal Butlers. But after looking at that dimensional bracelet and realizing that the structure and formula used were really at a level they were not aware of, the two men shook their heads.
“They can't,” said Arca.
“Hmm, whereas Vil can directly wear it.”
Arca's forehead shriveled again, irritatedly saying, “Don't equate them with the Great Spirit ..!”
“Hmm, then just say the same to Nanra. He should also have a storage dimension opening method, I have also sent him the information package.”
“Nanra?” The statue was at a glance confused to hear the name. Realizing something, he made sure, “Ah, that secretary? You trust him so much, don't you? Though ..., isn't he the one who stabbed you?”
“Oh, you even know about it. But take it easy, he can be trusted. He stabbed me because I ignored him, it was my fault .... When you meet him, just show him the bracelet and tell him you know me. He can understand quickly. If he doesn't believe me, just use the power of the woman in front of you to send my voice. The real name of the woman in front of you—Eh? Elulu? Your name is unique, huh?”
The statue immediately stared intently at the woman who was sitting limp in front of him. From Odo's voice, Arca knew that the woman was also communicating with him without knowing what the two men were talking about.
“Odo, what are you talking about with this woman?” ask Arca.
“Ah, not much. Oh, aye! I forgot something!”
“What?” Arca wore a tired expression as she felt dragged into the conversation.
“It's about bandit.”
“Hmm ...” Instantly Arca also recalled the matter, put on a serious expression and with a pressing tone said, “I have checked the room that you had previously forbidden to enter anyone in this inn. At first I got information that the woman and the little boy you kidnapped were threatening someone. But when I confirmed it again and there was a man in the room, I realized something.”
“You went inside?”
“Not ...” Arca shook her head, then replied, “I just confirmed it with one of my Grimoires. Inside there are clearly three signs of life, one woman, a child and a man.” At a glance Arca fell silent, then in a dubious tone she asked, “They were ... Tox Tenebris and his family, ‘kan?”
“Exactly, it's great you're aware of it. Then, what do you want to ask?”
Arca in the mind felt that Odo had indeed planned something from the beginning about them. Sighing deeply, the young man from the Rein family asked, “There are two questions. First, why are you helping them? For the second, who exactly executed?”
“The first question the answer is almost the same as the reason I helped the woman in front of you. I rate the Native Overhoul highly, I need its strength. That's it...”
Arca put her left hand in front of her mouth, then muttered, “Tenebris's Tox power if it's not wrong... sort of teleportation, ‘kan? Fast object transfer.”
“Hmm, that's one of the components I need.”
Silent statues, things that Odo often calls components are always explained in the abstract and deliberately not told clearly. In a flat tone Arca again said, “I won't ask more about it. For the previous question, actually who executed?”
“Kolt Luis ...”
“So, yes .... One of the other bandit leaders.” Arca was not surprised, he had expected it when he knew that the original Tox Tenebris was still alive.
“Hmm, you didn't ask for details, did you? About how I changed their faces or something..”.
“I told you, I'll only ask you two things.”
As the atmosphere in the room turned silent, Odo's voice was not heard as he was considering a few things. But not until one minute, his voice was heard again, “I'll explain it, this is also important because .... You know that I went to the Klista settlement, ‘ right? About those who were attacked by Moloia's troops who infiltrated.”
“Oh!” Both eyes wide open, feel proud because his guess was right and he made sure, “There you catch him, huh? Is it the bandits that are actually throwing a tantrum?!”
“Instead, the bandits were only used by Moloia's forces. It's important, so listen carefully. I was able to finish off some of Moloia's men, but there were some who escaped. If you get rumors of their movements or find them, report them to me!”
Arca put on a doubtful expression got such an order, then he seriously asked, “What ... no need to be finished?”
“I need information. Arrest them, their weapons please secure. You know that Moloia uses a special weapon that is only produced in their country, ‘kan?”
“Ya ..” Arca nodded lightly and replied, “That's what they call machine guns or firearms. The empire had also once made such, but the level of complexity of the weapons that Moloia created was higher.”
“I want to dismantle it, of course I need people who understand how it works.”
Arca understands Odo's reason for wanting to capture the Moloias still roaming Luke's territory. Nodding once, the brunette youth said, “Alright, I will report if there is any information about them.”
“Hmm, it's been the talk, yes. You just continue to make the agenda, there should still be half an hour left.”
“Eh?!”
“Dah.”
“A ..”
Elulu's power, Radd Sendangi, is turned off. Within seconds the light particles scattered throughout the room vanished and the window opened itself. The connection of the room with one individual that is a long distance is immediately cut off.
“Hah, he is just as willing,” complained Arca. Despite saying so, the young man seemed to enjoy enough of the challenges he would face for the next few months.
