Chapter 294 Volu 5 Epilogue
Sieg: Kuro, your plan to save those Travelers succeeded. But are you sure that it is the right thing that you should do?
Kuro: Um Sieg, why are you so worried about this? I just used the rules to send them away. There is nothing wrong with what I did...
[Sieg summons his broadsword]
Kuro: Ah Sieg! Why are you summoning your weapon again! Did I do sothing wrong?
Sieg: Whether you did sothing wrong will only depend on how you answer now.
Kuro: Sieg... are you going to question my decision? Even though I helped you on your mission?
Sieg: You could have used a different way to stop them from fighting. Why did you choose to use an outdated rule? You could have just added a Bonus Mission or a restriction. But instead, you put the mission here on a temporary hiatus! Do you know how hard it is to put a mission in temporary hiatus?
Kuro: Well, I-
Sieg: First of all, we have to deal with all the people that were left behind here! Do you see all those Travelers, Symbolists, and Celestials outside? All of them now knew about the existence of the Travelers! If the mission was finished already, then everything will be fine! But no, it cannot be fine, since you put the mission on temporary hiatus!
Kuro: I-
Sieg: Now, you and I have to use different thods to ensure that none of these people will spread out the things that they have learned here. For fighters like us, doing that is difficult!
Kuro: Well, we can just kill them, right?
Sieg: Kill them? Kuro, these people right here are all related to the mission already! We cannot kill them all, as they are now part of the mission! Kill one of them, and it might make the Endless Monarch pissed!
Kuro: Oh.
Sieg: Do you know what happened the last ti that soone placed a mission in temporary hiatus? Do you know?
Kuro: Um, it went well?
Sieg: No. It did not go well. Out of the three Travelers that were forced to leave because of the hiatus, only one ca back, and that one who ca back did not even manage to finish the mission, as the Administrator there did a poor job on preserving the mission scenario!
Kuro: That is bad. That is bad.
[Sieg now points his broadsword at Kuro]
Sieg: Administrators should only put a mission on hiatus if the interference that happened there is so severe that letting the mission go on will just be too much. If a Monarch decides to maliciously ss up the mission scenario, then that will warrant a temporary hiatus. But the thing that happened earlier? That was just a chicken who fooled those Travelers! Nothing disastrous happened there! And even if it managed to affect soone, that is not enough to force a temporary hiatus!
Kuro: Hey, I-
Sieg: You only used the bare technicality of the rules to implent this temporary hiatus. You are lucky that the chicken did affect one of the Travelers, but in my opinion, you just had an overreaction.
Kuro: Hmph, what’s the big deal if I did that? I succeeded on saving those Travelers! You should be at least happy to !
[Sieg suddenly pushed his broadsword closer to Kuro]
Kuro: Hey! G-get that off !
Sieg: Of course I am happy that you helped out. But my happiness and my duty to keep things orderly are two separate things.
Kuro: You... what did I even do wrong here? I followed all the rules!
Sieg: Yes, you did follow the rules, but I could not help but feel as if you were scheming sothing.
Kuro: ? Sche sothing? S-Sieg, you know who I am! I am just soone who likes drinking cola everyday! How could soone like be able to-
Sieg: And you are also the one who saved many Guides from the attack of the Three Monarchs. Nobody ordinary can do sothing like that.
Kuro: That... I am just lucky.
Sieg: The Guide Training Camp was assaulted by three Monarchs, with you inside that place. All of those Monarchs attacked that place with the sole intent of kill you all. But even with that kind of ferocity, you and you alone managed to formulate a plan that saved a lot of Guides! Without your quick thinking, the Traveler Initiative could have been pushed back by at least a generation...
Kuro: Sieg, just like what I told you before, it was just all luck!
Sieg: Why are lying? Why the f**k are you lying, huh? Do you really want to piss off that much?
Kuro: Hiii!!! Sieg, you know that I do not an it that way! I just wanted to tell you the truth!
Sieg: I don’t care if you are lucky or not at that ti. What I only want to know is whether you are scheming sothing right now.
Kuro: ...
Sieg: ...
Kuro: If I tell you that I am indeed scheming, what would you do to ? Would you kill , or would you torture to make reveal my sche?
Sieg: If you want to know what I will do, then just answer my question.
Kuro: ...
Sieg: Kuro, I ask you one more ti. Do you have any sches related to this temporary hiatus?
Kuro: ...
Sieg: Answer you brat!
Kuro: Fine, I am indeed scheming on sothing! Now Sieg, do what you want to do with !
Sieg: Thank you for your honesty. Now help out on preserving the mission scenario.
[Sieg dispels his broadsword as he walked away from Kuro]
Kuro: Wait what? You will really not do anything to ? I thought you want to keep the order? Shouldn’t schers be the ones that you hate most?
Sieg: If it was before, yes, I would imdiately kill you. But after that ’event’, I realized that I must not be enthusiastic on weeding out people like you. After all, your sches are nothing against the power of the Endless Monarch himself. I have no qualms against your sches anymore, as they will all be for naught at the end.
Kuro: ...Sieg, for a scary guy like you, you actually sound cool right now.
Sieg: I have always sounded cool. When did I even sound uncool?
Kuro: [Whispers to herself] There’s too many instances to count...
Sieg: What did you say?
Kuro: Ah! I just said that you holding your broadsword is the coolest mont that you have! Yes! That broadsword always brings out the coolness in you!
Sieg: Oh, thank you for your praise. I am sure Luvia would love your praise on her.
Kuro: Um, yeah, I am sure Luvia will be happy.
Sieg: I know that you want to praise Luvia more, but we have to focus on work first.
Kuro: [Whispers to herself] Yeah... I really love to praise a lifeless broadsword. That is my hobby right now....
Sieg: What did you just say?
Kuro: Oh, I just said that Luvia is really pretty!
