The evacuation progress was fast, it took less than 24 hours to evacuate everyone from that place, and in a short ti I left that world inside the vehicle that Nicole built because it was the fastest, the interior space is not much, but it was enough for to open the Dungeon gate inside.
Now I was in the giants' grove, one of the floors of the Dungeon I built, and where I made those insects stay under the observation of the Fairies.
I had my wings open flying to an area full of flowers the size of trees, I found one that looked like a red sunflower and had a faint odor of blood, I sat on its petal and waited for almost 1 hour.
"I thought you weren't coming." (I)
"Building a Nest is not so simple, my blood and power are needed to expand the space inside." (Marlack)
I turn to the Butterfly Insect Empress, Marlack.
"Do we still have things to talk about? Why not go back to..." (Marlack)
"I need to know more about your people and especially about the Apostles of Truth." (I)
"I've already told your sister the important points." (Marlack)
"She told this, but I want to hear it from her mouth and in detail." (I)
"..." (Marlack)
"Why do you act like that when you were the one to approach asking for help." (I)
"You are not helping , working together is beneficial for both of us, especially to fight together against the Apostles of Truth." (Marlack)
"That may be true, but your hostility towards seems more personal, it makes think I can't trust you and should throw you both out of my Dungeon." (I)
"Would you sideline future allies because of not being polite to you!?" (Marlack)
She looks enraged, exploding her Aura to the point that almost every Bug in the area cos towards us before she waves her hand telling them to get away.
"The way you act and talk doesn't matter to , I'm used to living with all kinds of people and it takes a lot of effort to make lose my temper." (I)
ndsnvl.cm "What bothers is your hostility and don't try to deny it, I can feel it perfectly in your Aura." (I)
"Don't confuse things either, having you on our side can be an advantage, but I don't care if I can't trust you, so tell the reason for that, and let's try to solve our problems." (I)
"This will be difficult, you will always be at odds with !" (Marlack)
"I didn't even know you, what do you think I did?" (I)
This Insect Empress has been a headache since the first ti we talked after the battle, I always felt like I was being treated differently, but I thought she was due to us being enemies until a short ti ago, which was proven wrong when I saw her treating everyone else more normally while only I was treated in a hostile way.
"You cannot hide it from , I feel the power of the Swarm within you, I feel the presence of my sisters and many of my kind circling your body." (Marlack)
"As the Insect Empress I am aware of the blood and power of my race, sothing you took for yourself sohow, as far as I know, you are no different than the Apostles of Truth taking power from others for their own." (Marlack)
"..." (I)
"(Then she can feel the lineage of the Insects I've consud until today, she can even feel the power I've managed to claim from them.)" (I)
Sohow she sees in the sa way as the Apostles of Truth and I can understand her line of thinking, they mix flesh and blood of other individuals to take part of others' powers for themselves.
In my case it's different, I consu and integrate what I take, I make power and lineage mine, I'm not kisyuring other's lineages with mine, they are all my lineages, they are part of , they are my power and they are under my Authority.
But for soone who doesn't understand these things and is only seeing superficially, it must be difficult to understand without anyone explaining, even if he does, he may not believe because he already has a distrust in my direction.
"I have no reason to hide it, I have the bloodlines of many races running through my body, thousands of races from people to monsters, including Dragons and my mother's bloodline." (I)
"But these aren't things I stole, they are things I acquired from my own power, a feature of my Authority." (I)
"What I consu becos part of , superficially what I do and what they do may look similar to an outsider's eyes, but they are completely different." (I)
"You expect to believe that?" (Marlack)
"I am a Demigod, son of the Blood Goddess and a Primordial Dragon, I cannot have other powers in my body that are not mine in full, I also have many Blessings in my body that I would not have if I did what they do, you saw it yourself Blessings in our battle." (I)
"..." (Marlack)
I still find it hard to understand her expressions when her face is so different, her bug eyes are also hard to understand, but I suppose she's thinking about what I said, I hope she can look at differently from now on. I think you should take a look at
"I'll take her word for it until she proves wrong." (Marlack)
"(With this I hope I can put those things aside and start over with her.)" (I)
"I hope we can get along for the ti being." (I)
"I hope so, now we can talk about her reasons for coming to ." (Marlack)
"To start the Swarm..." (Marlack)
Marlack starts to tell about various things about the swarm, things like the hierarchies that exist, about their cultures, and their purposes.
After talking for a few hours about the Exam I went straight to the question concerning a certain subject that my sister got from her yesterday while I was still sleeping.
"Could you tell more about the Apostles of Truth?" (I)
"Just tell briefly first and then we can go into detail as you ask." (I)
"They have 3 hierarchical levels on their side." (Marlack) .
"The lowest level are the servants who are the lowest among them responsible for minor tasks, then co those of the middle level, the Children of Truth, are the researchers who are responsible for these horrible things that happen warping life as if they thought to be gods." (Marlack)
"She who stands at the top as the leader of her people is called the Mother of Truth." (Marlack)
"I understand." (I)
"This Mother of Truth, what is her na? What does she look like? Do you know how strong she is?" (I)
"We don't know her na, just her title, I've never t her like the rest of the Swarm either." (Marlack)
"You know who Haku is." (I)
"Yes, strange woman with antennae on her head?" (Marlack)
"Yes, it ca from the attack before hers." (I)
"She is one of the Daughters of Truth, she was responsible for the contamination of the Insect Empresses who died a few days ago in battle." (Marlack)
"Do you know where their base is? At least do you know if they have any other allies?" (I)
"Yes, but I only saw it once, her garnt had the symbol of the Church of Greed.." (Marlack)
"At least now we know a few things, do you know what their plan is?" (I)
"Conquest, they want to take a perfect world for themselves to reign supre, which ans killing all the inhabitants or worse to take my places." (Marlack)
Just by her tone of speech, you can tell that she doesn't agree with what she said before, it seems that she didn't believe what they said.
"What do you think they want?" (I)
"Sincerely, I do not know." (Marlack)
"Do you know anything about this Mother of Truth? Anything will do." (I)
"The only thing I know is called Mother by all the Daughters and Sons of Truth I've t so far, it also seems like she was the one who modified their bodies." (Marlack)
"(Looks like I'll have to ask that Haku person in prison, she should know more since her position was relatively high as a Daughter of Truth.)" (I)
I thought about what has been said so far as I spoke with Marlack hearing what she knew personally is always better than reading reports as it gives a better context to understand situations better.
After talking a little more with Marlack I leave her with her Swarm and return to the city thinking about how to approach the prisoner.
I rember that before falling asleep I heard Caitlyn talking about the person arrested, exactly Haku.
It seems that even without being mind controlled you still can't get her to talk, I think I'll pay her another visit with Caitlyn, hopefully, this ti it'll be easier to get information out of her.
With that kind of thought, I went to find my sister before going to the castle of views and straight to the prison, Haku was awake when we arrived and my sister made her sleep before we started.
"Let's see what I can get from you now..." (I)
