"I understand you, I understand. Well, don't mind if I ask, but can I see the official docunt signed by the Patriarch himself?" Oumu asked Rouge.
What he asked was sothing that could be considered to be crossing the line and excessively rude and it could be misunderstood as Oumu not believing Rouge even after saying those words earlier.
After all, asking to see the official docunt signed by the Patriarch himself...is just impossible.
The official docunt signed by the Patriarch is what put Rouge in the position of the Temporary Patriarch of the Warster Denoble House.
If Rouge gives that to Oumu and then Oumu destroys it or anything of the sort, then one could say that Rouge no longer has the right to beco the Temporary Patriarch of the Warster Denoble House.
In other words, the official docunt is Rouge's lifeline. Giving it to soone is extrely risky and dangerous for Rouge, even if this soone is soone who he trusts and is friends with him.
Oumu should know this as well, but he still asked to see it. He should know that the official docunt is his friend's lifeline.
That was why this situation was even more suspicious.
If Oumu knows that and he is a friend to Rouge who wants to help him with all that he can, then he shouldn't be asking Rouge to see the official docunt signed by the Patriarch.
To have the guts to ask it even though he is a friend of Rouge either ans that Oumu is just one thickheaded bastard who does not understand these things or he is an enemy to Rouge.
Either way, it is still extrely risky for Rouge to try and give the official docunt to Oumu.
However, it seems that Rouge believes otherwise as he just nodded his head.
"I figured you'd say that. Well, it's not here as you can understand its importance. I left it to soone who has my full trust, and he is soone who can defend it even if soone tries to steal it away from him."
"If you still want to see it, you can co with to co and see that guy."
Rouge said all those words with a thin smile on his face. Even though Rouge knew that it was risky for him to give it to Oumu, he still agreed to it.
There is only one reason why he would agree to such a risky deal, and that is because Rouge trusted in him.
No, he didn't trust in Oumu. Well, he did trust Oumu as a friend, but...that is not the point here.
The one that Rouge trusted is the one who holds the official docunt that is signed by the Patriarch. In other words...Lucifer.
Right, Lucifer is the one who holds that docunt, and it is because Lucifer instructed Rouge to officially introduce him to the Warster Denoble House by telling the people that he is the one who holds the official docunt.
This way, Lucifer would be able to integrate himself into the Warster Denoble House as natural as it can be, and nobody would question it too.
This way, it would be incredibly easy for Lucifer to see what is going on inside the Warster Denoble House and not just be a bystander or anything of the sort.
Of course, Lucifer would just spend a short amount of ti here as he has to go back to the capital to continue 'studying.'
Well, studying is the official reason, but Lucifer would use that ti to focus on himself to recover his body and heal.
It would be a dumb idea for Lucifer to continue his adventure without even healing his body.
Anyway, when Oumu heard what Rouge had to say about the official docunt signed by the Patriarch himself, he...just had a tiny smile on his face as he nodded his head.
"Of course. Don't get wrong about this, I do trust you. However, this topic is just interesting for , so you know...I can't help myself," Oumu said.
Well, what Oumu said is the truth. He was just interested in this topic so he asked Rouge about this official docunt signed by the Patriarch himself.
This is just a trait of Oumu, his curiosity always gets the better of him and Rouge knew this very well, which is why he wasn't really that alerted about it or anything of the sort.
However, since Oumu is about to help Rouge in his mission of letting Lucifer be introduced to the Warster Denoble House by saying that he is the one who holds the official docunt signed by the Patriarch of the Warster Denoble House, then Rouge has no problems in indulging with Oumu's request.
Even if Oumu does turn out to be an enemy of Rouge, it still wouldn't matter in front of Lucifer, so...it was still fine.
Anyway, when Rouge heard what Oumu said, he just laughed a little bit and afterward continued to speak, "Alright, I know you very well so don't worry. Sothing like this does not offend ."
"But...how about those friends of yours? I'm afraid that they can't go with us so you'll have to dismiss them."
Rouge said those words clear as he made his intentions across Oumu.
Well, it was understandable why Rouge wouldn't want demons who he wasn't really familiar with to go with him towards the place where the official docunt signed by the Patriarch was located.
Although Lucifer would be able to kill them all if sothing happens, that is not the result that they desired in this situation.
Anyway, when Oumu heard what Rouge said, he thought that it was reasonable as well.
He then nodded his head as he continued to speak, "Alright. I will tell them to go ahead of first, and then I'll co back here."
Oumu then took a step back and then bowed his head towards Rouge, "I shall go now then, Patriarch."
Oumu then turned around without waiting for Rouge's approval and then went back to his comrades.
The reason why Oumu bowed his head towards Rouge is to say in public that he acknowledges that Rouge is the Temporary Patriarch now, in both na and reality.
Even though Oumu and Rouge were friends that definitely didn't need such formality, it was still needed for the public and for Rouge to save so face.
In other words, Oumu doing that was actually a huge boon to Rouge since Oumu basically did that in a place packed in demons who could be considered to be the main bulk of the Warster Denoble House.
Of course, Oumu wouldn't really go since he would still have to go with Rouge to look at the official docunt signed by the Patriarch himself, but...it was a good chance so Oumu did that.
Anyway, when Oumu turned around and began to walk towards his comrades, Rouge just looked at his back with a flat look on his face.
Well, Rouge did appreciate that Oumu did sothing like that since Rouge understands his position now.
However, Rouge just couldn't help but look at the people of the Warster Denoble House with disdain in his eyes.
This is because of his loyalty to Lucifer, and this is because the Warster Denoble House was an enemy to Lucifer.
If it weren't for Rouge becoming the Temporary Patriarch through forgery and trickery, then one could say that the Warster Denoble House is still an enemy to Lucifer.
In fact, if people found out that the official docunt is fake, then one can be assured that all hell would break loose and all of the hunting dogs of the Warster Denoble House would hunt Rouge and all of his accompliances.
And this is the reason why Rouge was just looking at his friend with a flat look on his face.
This is because the friend...might turn into an enemy in just a single mont.
And for situations like these, it would be better to cut off any emotions that he had so that he wouldn't hesitate when the ti cos.
Rouge knew this very well as he has undergone sothing like this in the past when he was forced to kill people who he knew as well, so it was easy enough for him to be like this.
Adding the factor of the scary wrath of Lucifer, it's no brainer that Rouge is able to do sothing like this with ease.
Anyway, as Rouge continued to look at Oumu and his back, he soon saw the other demons or the comrades of Oumu take a bow towards him, so hesitated, and turn around and exited the room.
It seems that Oumu was able to convince them to go ahead of him.
After the demons were able to get out of the room, and Rouge and Oumu were the only ones present in this room, Oumu turned around and walked towards Rouge.
"Shall we go, then?" Oumu said as soon as he reached Rouge.
"Yeah, follow ," Rouge said as he started to walk towards...the deeper parts of the room.
