After hearing the question, Jake got a bit surprised and didn't know how to answer it… considering what he said, his arrival to help made no sense… his original thoughts were of helping Louise's group, but he had forgotten about that when he considered that he would have to fight the sa assholes that ambushed him ti and ti again. Still, it didn't change the fact of what was supposed to be his first intention.
"Fuck you, Virgilius," Jake said. "Turning you into a blender would be too good for you. You will beco a toaster."
"If that is what you want, then I will abide by it," Virgilius said. "Still, your reaction makes ponder about sothing else. Are you angry because I asked sothing again, or is it because you realized that your actions and thoughts contradict each other?"
,m "A pencil sharpener is what you will beco…" Jake said after clicking his tongue.
"I suppose I have the answer to my questions," Virgilius said.
"... It seems we are done here…" Helena said and then sighed. "I will regroup my mbers in our base and then move to find another one since we don't know if Hugo and the others will pull off sothing like this again. Call if you discover where they are hiding… this betrayal can't go unpunished."
"Sa here… it is a pity that more people have to die, but things won't get better until this situation is solved," Milena nodded. "I want to know more about what they are hiding as well, and I doubt that I am the only one, though.
"It will be difficult to find their base, but I will see what I can do. See you two later," Frederick said.
"Considering the direction in their mana vanished, I can make a good guess to where they have gone," Virgilius said, this ti, only for Jake to hear.
"Why are you whispering now?" Jake asked.
"While I may have asked so questions out loud, you still are my commander, and I know that you wouldn't want to head to their base with so many people," Virgilius said.
"I see, you are truly afraid of becoming a toaster, and now you want to score so points with ," Jake said.
"What are you two talking about?" Lana asked. "Also, I am surprised to see you working with soone else, Jake."
"It isn't like I had any other choice," Jake said. "I wanted that spaceship, and it ca with a noise driver. At least I don't have to do anything while using it. Just giving the orders is enough."
"Can we take a look?" Louise asked. "It goes without saying, but I have never seen a spaceship, and I am sure that one of this size and shape is pretty rare to find."
"No, this isn't a cruiser, and besides, you have soone I don't know among you all," Jake said. "You all already showed that you have poor judgnt skills."
"... How so?" Louise asked.
"You guys are working with a guild that worked with other guilds, and more than half of those tried to kill you all," Jake said. "Do I need to say anything else?"
"... I can see now how co Lana always looks exhausted when she is talking about you," Frederick said. "I want to leave right now, but it seems this Virgilius fellow is pretty smart, so I want to hear his opinion about the matter of the hideout of Hugo and the others."
"You will never hear anything from Virgilius," Jake said. "Even he knows that I have limits, and revealing that kind of information would go way beyond that."
"I see… then today I am leaving knowing that he has a thod to find them," Frederick said. "It doesn't seem like we are ever going see each other eye to eye, but I am still thankful for your intervention, and I will find a way to repay the debt."
"I won't expect much coming from you all," Jake said.
Jake could feel Rose glare under her hood, but Luke and Frederic just sighed and left. Jake was about to leave as well, but then he saw the bunny girl approaching while carrying sothing enveloped in a large piece of cloth.
"My na is Arilene, and I am the princess that you saved a few months ago," Arilene stopped when she was two ters away from Jake and then moved the gift toward him. "This is a gift that I have been willing to give to save my life. Please also consider this a gift from my people."
"Ah, I rember now… you were the girl in the bag," Jake said. "There is no need to repay for that accident. I didn't save you because I wanted to. I thought that you were so kind of treasure that the enemies had stolen. It was purely by accident. In fact, I even thought of taking the treasure for myself as an annoyance fee."
"I never thought that I could say that being sincere was one of the flaws of soone…" Lana said.
"... Still, even if it was by accident, you still saved many lives," Arilene said. "I traveled for several months to give you that, and I can't back away now."
"I guess even princesses can be pushy," Jake said. "Well, if you insist…"
Jake took out the clothing around and found a pretty ominous sword in his hands. The hilt seed like it was the finger of a dragon, and there was a gem in the middle of it that looked like an eye. The hilt was brownish red and was pretty rough, but the blade was clean and light blue. It seed like a pretty rare material.
"That sword is called Dragon Heart. It was the weapon used by the strongest warrior in the history of our kingdom," Arilene explained. "The legend says that thanks to this weapon, he survived even when his head was smashed, and his heart was pierced."
"If that were true, I guess the only way to kill him would have been by doing both at the sa ti," Jake said.
