I Am No King's

Chapter 60 – Mother's Instinct

~Lacuna POV~

　

"From the way you say it, it's as if the black market of this country already knows it all. However, why would the information you provided, and I gathered, say that it was all just a rumor?"

　

Mila bit the crepes before giving an answer. "In this country, there are only five organizations that know it. However, not all members know. Only higher-ups, maybe one or two people, have this thing and know the information.”

　

So, suppose every organization has those two rings, then, at maximum, only ten people have the ring and information.

　

I guess, “you agreed not to spread this information any further, and tried to suppress it to just a rumor?"

　

"Yes, that's exactly it. You look smart, so, I don't think I need to explain why, do you?"

　

"Yes, I can expect it.”

　

Mila continued the explanation. "However, unfortunately, after the Ibrahim family changed leadership, they broke the deal. No matter how many times we warn, the new leader does not listen. So, we also have to clean up the Ibrahim family."

　

"So, some of the previous failed attempts were not only due to disputes, but also because of this deal?"

　

"Absolutely. Unfortunately, the leaders are stupid. Instead of intervening, they told the small organization to clean up the Ibrahim family. Lower-middle-class organizations did not have large budgets, so the mercenaries they could rent were only anchovy classes."

　

"And, for failing too often." I put in a guess. "Finally, you five big families, step in."

　

"really. That's why I said they were stupid. Why not just intervene from the beginning?"

　

Hmm. I got a lot of information, and quality. Unbeknownst to me, the crepes in my hand are gone, as well as Mila's.

　

"Then why are you telling me all this? You want to get a share of that pay if I make it?"

　

"Ahahaha, no. I don't want any parts at all. I just," Mila stopped, her gaze blank for a moment. "So, I feel like I need to do this. I don't know why myself."

　

I was silent when I heard Mila's reply.

　

"And again, I feel a little guilty for interrupting your rest this afternoon."

　

Mila stood up and threw the crepes paper into the trash beside me.

　

"I'm first."

　

"Please."

　

Mila walked over, leaving me.

　

I didn't move right away, but leaned back first. At first, when I heard Mila talking about the parents and the child, I thought she knew I was her daughter. However, unfortunately, and fortunately, this conjecture was broken by his last response.

　

However, perhaps, even though she did not know, her maternal instincts rose slightly. Yeah, maybe even though he doesn't know me, his body still knows.

　

　

I wonder if if the woman had been with us before my father died, would I have felt the happiness of the child? If Mila left for the reason she said, indirectly killing me because of the power of control that did not decrease, I was forced to understand.

　

Ahh, the older I get, the softer I get and the sentiments. I was a stranger when I was a teenager and could do anything I wanted. Strange as well. Normally, girls will be emotional and unstable in adolescence. And yet, for some reason, I'm just experiencing it now. What caused it?

　

Ah, I think next time. Now, I better go home and pick up the equipment to watch Blonde attack.

　

***

　

While wearing clothes, preparing tools, and weaponry, I thought about the ring and the bullets of the Ibrahim family. From the information given by Mila, the ring he has is a prototype of the bullets of the Ibrahim family. Rather than prototypes, it might be more appropriate that Sku consider them to be real objects.

　

The real thing is a ring. The ring can eliminate the power of control for those who wear it. The mechanism is that the ring is emitting waves, or whatever, that make the user unable to concentrate.

　

However, the question is, whether the wave or anything that is emitted comes from the material? Or how to make it? Or is there another mechanism in it?

　

The first possibility is the material. However, in my opinion, it is impossible that the one who can eliminate control is material. If it can eliminate the controlling power, this material must be a special material. Other organizations and the government of this country must have blocked all means of obtaining the material. Therefore, this possibility is very small.

　

Second, the mechanism inside. It's hard for me to imagine such a small ring and bullet could have a mechanism inside. Too hard. Even if it can, it takes an international laboratory to make it.

　

Therefore, the choice falls to the third possibility. How to make. If possible the material or the base material is normal material. However, after special processing, whether heated to a certain temperature, electrified, coated, or whatever, new properties appear. And, of the three possibilities, this possibility is the greatest.

　

Alright, for now, I will act using the third possibility as an assumption. I also have to be vigilant so that not a single bullet lands on my body or my controlling power will be lost, just like Mila was.

　

If a single bullet landed on Blonde's body, the chances of him coming out alive were nil.

　

Okay, time to go.

　

Seriate
