C89:First Order Esralda (1)
One more chapter later.
Im looking forward to eting the First Order.
Rudger, who confird that the opponent appeared only as a fla without showing up, had no choice but to bite his tongue inwardly.
You dont reveal yourself, but we et like this.
In fact, it was not a situation that he didnt expect. A First Order will have to carefully hide its identity and not be exposed.
Considering the way he was signaled to et, he vaguely expected sothing like this.
Youre late.
Whatever the case, the owner of the fla in front of him is a First Order. Even if he doesnt know its true identity, he shouldnt show his disappointnt.
At this mont when they face each other and talk, if he let his guard down even a little bit, the other party might be suspicious of his identity.
Theres no such thing as regret.
Rudger imdiately washed away his miscellaneous thoughts. Even if they dont et in person, there are plenty of ways to get to know the other person.
A word that they say without any intention can be a great clue.
[I didnt know you would be here so early]
The answer ca back in a slightly hoarse voice. Although the flas were fluttering and the voice reverberated, it was easy to tell that the subject was a woman.
He didnt think that voice was used to deceive him.
His opponent must be aware that he is Rudger Chelici, the First Order, and she wouldnt use such a troubleso way.
So what did you call for?
Rudger said, trying to figure out the opponents intention.
The [John Doe] that he is impersonating right now is a very relentless and rciless human being, even when it cos to mbers from the Black Dawn Society. Hes always annoyed and angry, and even kills them if hes too annoyed.
Nevertheless, he maintained his First Order position because he was capable and Zero Order thought highly of him but there is no guarantee that it will be the sa for the others First Orders.
Would this [John Doe] character behave as usual to the other First Orders?
Adding unnecessary words could have made him reveal who he really is so he must be careful with whatever he says now.
[Hmm?]
Was Rudgers question unexpected?
A surprised voice ca from the fla.
Whats wrong?
[Youre less angry than I thought. You used to try to tear apart.]
Its just a matter of ti and place. If I get angry in a place like this, is there any advantage besides getting caught?
[Oh. Thats definitely true, too. Youre a teacher of Theon now.]
Im very busy right now. I dont know why you called , but Ill go back if you have nothing more to say.
With that said, Rudger turned his back. Of course, it is not right to leave as he has not yet fully figured out who his opponent is. However, a detailed review of the situation changes the story.
In the first place, it was the fla in front of him, the other First Order, that asked for this eting.
Since the other party wants sothing from him he can leave without worries because the other party will try to stop him.
[Wait.]
Indeed, as he expected, the fla stopped him. Rudger stopped walking but he didnt look back.
Hell listen for now, but it ans hes not fully committed and the opponent didnt know that.
[Okay. Sorry, Im late. I made an appointnt first, but I offended you because I was just joking around.]
Just get to the point.
[Whew. Youre still hard and cold. Anyway, I called you like this because I need help.]
Only then did Rudger look back.
Help? You?
[ I wouldnt normally do it, but this is Theon and I cant do things my way.]
Do things your way. If you say that with your own mouth, , it ans that what youve been doing before was pretty glamorous.
You seem pretty impatient.
[My second order disappeared recently]
Its because of the Almighty Stone.
[Yes, thats it. They tried to take matters into their own hands, but they completely screwed it up!]
Just thinking about what happened at that ti made the flas stronger. The heat reached Rudger, but he kept a casual look on his face and the fla, which grew bigger, returned to its original size.
But theyre all dead.
[Right. Who knew the president would kill them all? Its even.]
It was a trap.
[What? You know everything?]
How can he not know that? If he had not left right away, he would have been swept away by the presidents magic. Of course he cant be honest about it, so hell just answer in a sloppy way.
Theres no way I wont know.
[As expected, of John Doe. Co to think of it, that was your role. Disguise yourself and hide in the enemys camp to win the admiration of others and steal information. Your skills didnt die.]
Thats enough nonsense.
At Rudgers reaction the fla, which was expanding playfully, beca slightly withered. Surprisingly, she is a chatterbox.
[Anyway, I lost a subordinate that I thought was useful, so my plan was disrupted. Its a plan thats left to be carried out right away.]
Because you treated such a person as a subordinate, you ended up like that.
Rudger said, giving his opponent a hard ti.
The fla remained silent because there was nothing to refute.
[Well, Im in a different field than you. You just do things quietly on your own, but I cant do it.]
.
[What is that silence?] Thats why youre not popular even among our First Orders. Because I dont get along with anyone.]
I just didnt feel the need.
[Ha. So funny. Youre so handso and youve always been loyal to Zero Order. Youre the only one whos good, right? Getting a lot of love from Zero?]
Noisy. So what do you want help with?
[Will you help ?]]
Lets hear it first.
At Rudgers words, the opponent seed dissatisfied and the flas were shaking. However, from their conversation, Rudger was convinced that he was in control.
The Second Order, who died during the Almighty Stone incident, was her subordinate, and because her imdiate subordinate disappeared it caused a major setback in her future plans.
However, it would be impossible to use another Second Order and a third order. Its not good enough.
One thing Rudger knew for sure while playing Sedina was that the Black Dawn Society consists of seven First Orders along with the Second and Third Orders under them which naturally divides the faction inside.
Perhaps the second order, who died trying to steal the Almighty Stone this ti, is most likely her subordinate.
Did he say his na was Demires? Even if he was a master of his own will, he must have been a competent subordinate. With such a man dead, the plan she had made must be completely blank. However, calling another Second Order will inevitably lead to hesitation because their faction is different.
If she uses the Second Order of the opposing faction, she will show another First Order her weakness.
I see. Thats why you asked for help.
Unlike other First Orders, Rudger Chelici acted alone, and he wasnt part of any faction. Those without factions were neutral.
[You know, my specialty is setting fire but no matter how much I set fire in Theon, the wizards quickly extinguish the fire. Its an environnt where I cant use my talents well.]
Yes.
In Theon, both teachers and students can use magic. Since the place is full of elites any fire can be easily extinguished. Above all, there is no way that there is no way that there is no preparation for a fire in Theon, where all kinds of things happen with the use of magic.
In particular, it should have been considered impossible to set a fire in Theon, since strict preparations were made. Nevertheless, she did not give up.
Shes capable enough to set a fire, I guess.
She could not have beco an executive of the Black Dawn Society for no reason.
[My role is focused on destruction but the defense here is solid. That doesnt an I cant do anything. If you make the preparations, I can burn more brightly than anyone else]
Are you asking to prepare for that?
[Id appreciate it if you did. If you help , I will also give you the corresponding help. Its kind of a deal and a promise.]
Whose deal is it with?
[Of course] Its John Does deal with Esralda.]
Rudger found out the na of the person who made the fire in front of him.
I dont know if its a code na like John Doe or a real na.
In the case of John Doe, he completely concealed his identity and called himself by a code na, but Esralda likely didnt just like Victor Dreadful.
John Doe was an unusual case, and I didnt think the rest would.
[Hey, do you have to check like this to make your stomach feel better?]
Its better to make a deal clear.
Rudger said calmly so as not to be caught rejoicing.
[I told you honestly and now its your turn to answer. Do you accept my offer?]
I refuse.
[What?]
Theres nothing I can do for you in my situation.
[Wait. Are you really going to do this after listening to everything?]
The flas burned more strongly as if they were expressing anger but Rudger stared at the flas with a blank face and no sign of fear.
Are you asking because you dont know my position? Im a teacher of Theon. Even if its nominal, its not an easy place to move.
[If youre good enough, you can do it. You always try as hard as you can to hide yourself. Its just annoying, so can you do more than make an excuse?]
I would normally have, but not now.
[Why?]
The president is still suspicious of .
Esralda could not argue more and shut up when the president was ntioned.
[You really cant? Even though its a job that would put in debt?]
Yes.
[Theres nothing we can do. Then we have to pick the right person]
When she clearly drew her line, Esralda took a step back, fearing that hanging on to would hurt her self-esteem.
[But keep this in mind. If this is successful, it will help our Black Dawn Society a lot and you kicked the chance.]
Everyone has their own thing to do. Just because I dont help you doesnt an Im not loyal to the organization.
[You talk annoyingly as well. Anyway Ill take care of it myself.]
I was grateful that she would give up on her own. However, Esralda kept complaining because she was angry that she was rejected.
[I was crazy to ask you for help.]
So what are you going to do in the future?
[Are you curious now?]
Even though the words were so blunt, she didnt hide anything.
[What am I supposed to do? As always, Im doing what Im good at.]
I see. Do your best.
There was nothing more to be gained by asking more questions. Above all, he already figured out what he can find out, so this eting was not without benefits for him.
When Rudger was about to say good-bye and leave.
[Co to think of it, I heard so interesting news recently.]
What do you an?
Rudger felt anxious at the sudden remark. Why was she suddenly talking about interesting news at this ti?
[You said you had a subordinate]]
The word subordinate flashed Sedina Rosen across Rudgers mind.
[I an, thats weird. The John Doe who claid to be comfortable alone, has a subordinate? A third order, too?]
Esralda was suspicious and asked him.
