Chapter 138: Chapter 137: A new story: Dispute I
"You are so good at hiding, I almost couldn’t find you"
Rein turned tensed, ’how’d she...’
"You seem to underestimate
alot, to think a rat would be hard for
to catch, so did you like the prize"
"I have not checked it yet"
"Hmm..." she rubbed her belly, her clothes were roughly worn which showed that she had been in hurry. "Did you hear?"
"I didn’t hear enough to decide anything on my own"
"You are wise"
"I appreciate the complint"
"No its not a complint, to be able to fight like that against Hagar, you are truly magnificent, you are a threat to him..."
"That sohow sounds uncomfortable"
"Hey..." she suddenly called out boldly.
"...yes" Rein repulsively replied.
"Do you want to beco a union leader, I can be your sponsors and give you a boost, through that you will be earning a sure spot."
"No"
’What?! He outrightly replied not even thinking about it, a normal person would have given in.’
"Why did you refuse?"
"Because it is weird that I have been here for only four days and you are already willing to be my sponsor, besides I have no interest in being a union leader or involved with the central artic in any way"
She smiled, "I doubt you won’t, let’s go out on an excursion, shall we?"
"..." Rein stared at her.
She brought out a smoking pipe and put it in her mouth, she began to smoke, and imdiately the smoke filled the alley and changed the scenery.
Rein looked around vigilantly.
"Relax boy, Hagar is coming so i had to put up an illusion he could not break"
"You seem to be very weary of Hagar and it is unexpected"
"Of course he is a butler which is why?"
"So..."
"The first five union seat is no joke, people tend to call them the most powerful but from within its not the case, the first five seat has a responsibility to protect the world from ruin and that responsibility is handed over by our butler, so from the leader before Hagar hands over to , from
to soone else so and so"
Rein continued to look at her and soon talked, "what point are you trying to make?"
"I want you to see for yourself then after that decide if you truly want to be a second union leader or not, but you have my word, I will protect you. Well then see you in thirteen days"
"I understand..." Rein’s head juggled for a mont then he found himself in the general grounds, where movent was common and he could locate his room from, it was like a motion ground and checkpoint, it was a bit far from where he forrly was.
He sighed, ’how strong is she...’
anwhile****
"Where were you?"
"I heard so rat squeak so I thought I was gonna check"
"You should be careful, your body is in no good condition for you to be worrying about rats"
"Of course, i know that."
Hagar seized a breathe and reported, "i have sent word to the first leader, but how can you be sure they are back"
"I’m sure the first and third would have known since they are more injured by it"
"But there is sothing I understand Marie"
"Oho, you called
by na, looks like I got on your nerves"
"Why is it the first leader you sent word to, if he too should know that since he has the injury, instead shouldn’t you send letters to the fourth and fifth who don’t know anything"
She was silent, then Hagar talked, "do you plan to betray the cause?"
"I’m always good with you as long as you have not betrayed the cause already"
"What do you an? I have been a butler for over 2000 years and within that range I have seen several leaders who have in one way or the other imparted
and strengthen my will to protect the cause of every union leader, I would never betray the cause"
"Why do you guys hiding this from the public?"
"We’ve been through this Marie the existence..."
"Yea yea the existence of the demons must be hidden from the public" she interrupted. "But why? And how are you able to live so long when you are only human?"
"You seem to be suddenly asking a lot of questions..."
"Who knows, probably because my death is near"
"I will leave you for now think well before you act, it’s not about you alone"
"Sure sure"
"Well then ma’am" Hagar bowed his head lightly and went out.
Marie slapped her face softly and laid on her bed. "It’s going to be a long week, next week’ She slowly closes her eyes and falls asleep.
**********
"What do you an by what you should have done?"
"The world deserves to know the existence of the demons and that we can’t hold them any longer, isn’t it selfish that you guys want five of us to always fight against thousands of demons every ti they co out, that portal cannot hold them off any longer the entire world has to know and start preparing atleast together we have a chance hut I don’t understand why you guys are being so unreasonable!!" At this point the first leader was very angry, Jon and Dugnis just watched, they knew this was not a matter to get involved in.
Zearus laughed so much that his shoulders were dancing, he covered his face as he laughed. He finally stopped but still covering his eyes.
"...don’t get hard ..."
"Do you think I wouldn’t find out?"
"What are you talking about?"
The first leader stood, "how you guys have been using the dark energy to generate the power of longevity for yourselves."
"Ahh, so you have co to know too, I guess it around this ti too... but you are quite sharp, it took longer for others to find out and so never even did, anyways this was a cycle that is essential, it is not for our gain, all of us are what keeps the gate standing Ellifis if we die the portal will break and the demons will co back to our world again"
"...so it’s not you alone. That’s an excuse for selfishness and greed"
"You don’t get it!" Zearus lost his cool, "we are the pillars of that gate, if we die the gate collapse and we need the demonic energy to live longer, hence prolonging the longevity of the portal, the portal stands as far as we start and in order to get the energy you ... - " he imdiately paused the mont he discovered he was saying too much.
But Ellifis was smart, "...in order to get the energy, the demons have to co out of the portal, that ans... the leaking of the portal is a deliberate act." Ellifis’eyes widened as he looked at Zearus with anger if realization. "All this while you guys have been deliberately feeding us with lies, using us as at, we fight to defeat hundreds of demons by our own self just so you could get energy for your greed."
"...for the sake of the entire world, it is a noble cause for you and for
too"
"Shit you" Ellifis spat on his face.
He wipes the spit off his face with a handkerchief.
"... I don’t get why you all don’t always understand this, now what do you plan to do?"
"I’ll stop all the nonsense you guys have been doing, I will put an end to it"
"That will leave
no choice but to kill you" he stretched out his hand and grabbed Jon by the neck and lifted him. "But how will you like to see them dying fir- "
Zearus hand fell to the ground and Jon fell on his butt.
Dugnis’ eyes were wide open, ’what speed?... I couldn’t see’
Ellifis smiled at both of them and then the scenery changed but this ti Ellifis and Zearus was not there, Jon slowly stood up, "what is going on?"
"I don’t know but shouldn’t we go help him" He was about to run when Jon grabbed his collar.
"Do you seriously think you can do anything after hearing that conversation like that?"
"What?! So I just let my sponsor die?!!"
’Seriously, you’ve made the decision already!!’ ...Jon stared at him.
"What?"
"Don’t tell
the reason why you were here in the first place, was to ask him to be your sponsor"
Dugnis looked away and imdiately looked back, "so what is wrong about that? Can’t I be ambitious"
"Damn...what i thought of you when I first t you is really different from what I see"
"I want to be the first union leader and I want to be trained by him, so he can’t die. I know you don’t want to but please help , let’s find them and help him" Dugnis got on one knee.
"I heard kneeling is one honorable thing you don’t get to see a vampire do, that ans if they do, they are truly sincere and desperate. But then I will not promise you anything, I will flee the mont my life is in danger"
"Of course!!!" He sprang up.
"But how do we find him..." Jon looked around, "...I don’t even know where we are"
"Don’t worry, I’m a vampire after all" Dugnjs wore a wide smile on his face.
