117 Lisa; Sooner or Later I Will Find The Truth (2)
(Jane’s PoV)
I had waited for the elder to utter so words of recognition for Siji, but the elder didn’t say anything, much to my disappointnt. After staring at Siji for a while, the elder didn’t look at him anymore and returned to his usual aloof stance. He didn’t look at or Siji anymore, but sohow I knew this elderly was not an easy one. He acted as if he didn’t know about Siji but I knew he did.
Anyway, I wouldn’t scare this young woman by saying that there was an elder behind her and so other powerful astral beings.
Ignoring the others and focusing on building a good relationship with this young woman nad Lisa, I finally had sothing to busy my days.
Of course, this happened before Sanji ca. By the ti Sanji finished his work and ca to find , Lisa had gone to her new work place.
After my first eting with Lisa, I went back ho only after I managed to make an appointnt with her to et on the next day. I was totally curious about her.
But, that night an uninvited guest ca to my house. Since my house had a barrier around to prevent unrecognized ‘beings’ ca into the house, the elder had to wait for my permission to get into the house.
Siji was the one who told about his coming. Even though he had already passed away for so long, I still needed to show him my respect as a junior towards a senior. So, I didn’t waste any ti to co and accept him at the front door.
“Please, co in, Elder.” I politely invited him in.
.....
The elderly walked inside and threw a glance. “Don’t you feel afraid I might hurt you after you let in?” He asked calmly.
I smiled at him. “Well, I’m sure you don’t have that thought, right?”
The elder’s thin lips curled up a bit into a fleeting smile, but he said no more. I followed him into the room and watched him sat on the soft couch. There was a slight movent on the couch but it was not as heavy as when a human was sitting on it.
I took a seat at the nearest couch as I was still watching the elderly not far from . Before I could speak, Siji ca and stood beside , but he didn’t say anything.
As soon as Siji appeared, the elderly’s eyes moved onto him.
“Long ti no see, Number Seven.” The Elderly started.
My eyebrows arched as I heard him called Siji. Number Seven? It reminded of that ti when those elders in the other dinsion were talking. If I were not mistaken, I also heard them say sothing about ‘Seventh Adviser’ and I had accepted it long ago that the Seventh Adviser they were talking about was Siji. Why and how he could be the Seventh Adviser, I had never asked him before. I thought, just like the Army who had different Master and General, Siji might be the seventh adviser appointed to this army.
But, from this old man’s way of talking, it was not just a number.
“Sir.” Siji quietly bowed his head down as a form of greeting.
“You’re here, it ans this girl is the new master of White Army.” That was not a question, but a statent.
Why did I find it not a surprise that he knew about White Army?
This ti, his gaze drifted to . His pair of eagle eyes looked exceptionally overwhelming at this particular ti. Under the pressure of his gaze, I almost broke out in cold sweat.
“Not bad. I can see why she was chosen to be the one.” The elder pulled his gaze back as he stared at a big picture hanging on the wall; a picture of my parents and after I graduated from High School.
“Indeed. Her fate has been decided since long ago, even before she was born into this world.” Siji nodded his head.
Those words successfully caught my curiosity.
“Number Seven, are you sure she is the one? I know she has much stronger of ntal power than the others, but how can you be so sure that she is the one?”
“Sir, do you rember why I beca Number Seven?”
The elderly snorted. “I’m the one who gave the number, why would I forget?”
Siji smiled politely, but he couldn’t hide the beam in his eyes. “Exactly. She is the only one who can maintain her rationality for more than 30 days. No, I don’t think she knows about it. I can say that my presence doesn’t affect her at all, and it is instead the other way around.” He said proudly.
Wait!
Are they talking in the sa language as I use or am I too dumb to understand what they’re talking about?
