A sudden-sounding hand clap becomes a distraction. In this kind of atmosphere, who would dare to act like that?
Reutania Kingdoms? Obviously not because by looking at But's reaction alone, normal people would be afraid not of being overbearing because they could be the next target after Yuzu.
Then, Beatria Union? That possibility is clearly excluded. With their current state falling to the bottom of the abyss, who could clap?
With all these possibilities, it is clear that the origin of the vote must be a third party.
Black hair glistened, as if wanting to blend in with the darkness of the night. His black eyes were just as cold, desiring to suck the souls of those who stared at him for too long. With long ears of responsibility that resembled Elves but also no, the young man's lips curved thinly into a cold smile.
A dark purple spear was lodged in his hand, as if complementing the image of how the young man was.
If only he said a few sentences like ‘What an awesome drama to watch’. Or ‘Have I interfered with your drama’? Perhaps the appearance he would give these people would complete his first act.
However, he did not do such an appreciation on the ‘drama’ that had just taken place and was just silent. Stare fixedly at the central figure in the previous scene.
No need to ask anymore, that young man was Rion. After following the person who ran away from him —Dian— by tracking the whereabouts of that person using [Magic: Trace], he remained watching at a sufficient distance to track the other party's movements. Although in many ways this magic is very flexible, but that does not mean without restrictions in maintaining its supervision.
He witnessed how the exchange between But and Yuzu had been before with an indifferent look, but a strong interest was seen hidden in the corner of his eye. The change of situation has happened very quickly, even Rion often had to raise eyebrows against ‘letupan’ for the sake of a small explosion that occurred.
More than that, he stared at Dian's figure sharply before turning to But. Having found some unique things done by a known person, some small feelings appeared in his heart. However, that did not prevent him from the main goal. With Dian heading to Sourt City Manor, it was clear on whose side they were now.
However, he was not alone and two other figures began to be seen behind Rion.
A silver-haired girl who has inhuman curves, but at the same time is very reflective of human nature. With her violet eyes, she stared around with indifferent eyes at first glance, but there was no denying that it was a cold gaze.
Then a little girl with black hair and blue eyes followed. It had its own contrasting nuances to it, but the attraction of the two people earlier had snatched a lot of eyes from it. Lily and Yurei arrive, although in many ways, Yurei's condition is still not fully stable.
“Rion, hasn't everything become clear?”
“That's it, Lily.” Closing his eyes for a moment, Rion looked at But once again with a gaze ‘You know what we mean’ before turning his gaze to the team Night Eye is on.
His eyes swept around before stopping at Yuzu. Rion has to admit that he doesn't understand exactly what's going on. However, it was not difficult for him to estimate what happened and what was underlying these events.
Glancing around backwards alone, everything was already understandable, and it made Rion nod lightly.
Starting from the massive movement of Reutania against the figure who leveled Overflow alone. How the Night Eye team can become reach Sourt City when the city has the tightest defense with enough ‘easy’. Lastly, is how the relationship between the two.
From those two things, Rion knew that there was one thing in common, the search for him.
Nor is it impossible that all of this can happen. On the other hand, this had explained how there could be other eyes following the Night Eye team without them being able to notice.
Although after arriving here and choosing the attitude of waiting and looking only to find some hidden facts, Rion could not say much. However, the fact that Yuzu chose to keep information about him —though it had previously kept Reutania— relevant information made him decide to help them in full.
Even if he was not driven by the existing conditions, Rion might still give a little ‘gungang’ on the Reutania side. After all, they had to pay for her actions to Yurei, and even if she didn't want to do that, Lily would still do the same.
The circumstances that have developed up to this point have made all things clear, the relationship between Rion and Reutania is opposite. At least it was in the Zestia Continent, and for the Sylius Continent, Rion still chose a neutral stance. One side because this matter was not too big, and on the other hand, it was nothing until he had to level Reutania with Eugary Empire.
However, Rion did not want there to be many disturbing variables in the affairs between himself and the Eugary Empire in the future.
Moreover, the existence of the Night Eye team as well as Ci himself could be said to be additional ammunition, although their condition was now concerning. However, as the saying goes, ‘enemy of the enemy is friend’ and ‘two is better than just one’ .. even if it is while this thing still can he tolerate.
Rion's relationship with Beatria Union was clearly not a form of negative relationship. Well, even though Beatria Union itself has the attitude to pry some information about him, but at least it did not reach the point of harm to his ‘family (?)’. On this occasion, isn't this an opportunity to make them not reach the point of enmity?
Perhaps they should be a little grateful that the true purpose of the mission that Ci received was not leaked. Otherwise, most likely Rion will only see this ‘drama’ until it runs out.
Although he had some subtle feelings about the Night Eye team, it was obvious that those feelings had not reached the point he would act if the other party was injured. In Rion's view, he had replied to the indirect help of the Night Eye team earlier.
Even Rion probably wouldn't do much if it were Lily. If the girl can't cope with something, then she's afraid she won't be able to do much because Lily's strength is far above her. He had just seen the tip of the iceberg.
“You don't have to look too far, the person you're looking for is now right in front of you.” Rion chose to proclaim himself, there was no point in hiding. Moreover, he had even come out without any more disguises and did it now need to be covered up?
“Hoh ..”.
The voice came out from the crack of But's mouth, as if unconcerned but he had fully watched the other party closely. However, before long he frowned.
The fluctuation of energy that the young man released was chaotic, unable to feel clearly and difficult to read. On the other hand, even the seemingly harmless little girl before now was emitting energy fluctuations at the Platinum level end. It was far different from before, as if the chains that had been holding him had been removed.
However, more than those two oddities, the condition of the silver-haired girl was more alarming. But, he was completely unable to sense any energy fluctuations, making him look like a normal person and not a power user.
Even so, would any normal person walk into the battlefield elegantly? It was clear that it was not, and all of it made the folds that appeared on But's forehead deepen. Whether the girl is a normal crazy person or another possibility that he does not know, he felt some strange feelings from the three people.
Still with the unchanged attitude from before, Rion asked, “So, can you handle some of the demands we have?”
It was a very light word for him to say, but a heavy bomb was actually contained in Rion's light words.
