“Nona Carine, never taught me to avenge, your majesty. Even though I felt the pain that I experienced at that time, still, revenge was not a good solution. I am also sure, the ancestors certainly do not want the old residents to do that” replied Raven firmly. Gray nodded slowly. “Then are you ready to fight? With the old residents who want to avenge?” tanyanya.
Raven nodded with confidence. As if, there was no doubt in his heart. “Hhh. Clearly, I am still angry that you guys conspired” Gray said somewhat sulkingly. He looked short while he was blinking his lips.
“Complot? You mean?” raven asked half in shock. “You let him go just like that, isn't that what he called conspiring?” gray said in a annoyed tone. “Yes, you never change. Therefore, Miss does not want to accompany you anymore. Hhh... yes do it..” grumbled Raven responded.
“What does that breath mean? You're mocking me, aren't you?!” amuk Grey. Not wanting to cause any further trouble, Raven chose to keep her mouth shut. Instantly, he transformed back into a terrifying black crow.
Like his arrival, even when leaving the room Gray was, Raven seemed to have no voice. He always comes and goes quietly. Passing through the open window of Gray's room, Raven could easily fly free from there.
While staring at Raven's departure, Gray seemed to let out a long sigh. The heavy burden that he had always been a trivial, had finally arrived. Indeed, a trivial matter to him. But he must be conscious. It wouldn't be trivial if Carine wasn't with him anymore.
Geck!
Geck!
Geck!
The sound of the door to Gray's room. Knock the door, until it is heard echoing in all corners of the room. Gray is preparing to receive his guest. Though I don't know who's coming, Gray appears to be sitting in his office chair. As if, nothing had happened in that room before.
“You're busy?” a familiar voice. “Meetings with other companies I've handled. Hhh. If we get the award only, they all bother to ask cooperation” reply Gray who seemed to sag a little to his comfortable big chair. At this moment, he instead looked somewhat swallowed by the chair.
“Already expected, choosing you as the deputy manager of the hotel is a very good thing” praise guests who visit in the room Gray. “Keep it... praise yourself, Deval” grumbled Gray annoyed. Marc Deval seemed to smile with satisfaction, having managed to make Gray upset.
Guest Gray, none other than Marc. For some reason, Marc is relying on Gray. For Marc, the humorous, outspoken and seductive man was his savior. Every time Underwall goes through a crisis, she's always there to deal with it.
Gray invited Marc to sit on his couch. “Honestly, I don't want to be someone important here” Gray said opening the conversation. “Why? Anything bother you?” marc was a little worried.
Gray shook his head. “Coffee?” bargain later. “No need, thank you” reject delicate Marc. “Then, mau” said Gray concluded as good as a soul. This behavior made Marc can only shake his head. Sometimes, Gray is always a bitch.
Gray had a warm cup of coffee on the table. He sat on one of the couches facing Marc. “So, you're here to audit or maybe, check the report?” guess Gray. Marc nodded seriously.
Seeing Marc's answer, Gray understood. He immediately crossed both legs. “Underwall issues, the elders, Arthur or... Reine?” ask Gray firmly. Marc smiled, as if Gray could read his mind.
“Underwall, maybe... will be fine with you and others”.
“Arthur?”
“I leave everything to the investigation team”
“The elders?”
“Then, it must be the last. Reine”
“No Max, I'll protect her. He'll be fine”
Gray was seen sipping his first wine, this morning. “Then, there's new news you heard. I was curious” said shortly. “Hhhm, yes. I thought, everything's probably gonna be okay. But it seems..Even Death Hunters like me, can't cope with this one” explained Marc with a confused look.
Gray frowned. “What did you hear, until your face got so messed up?” tanyanya's worried. “Black magician.. suddenly reappears. And he intends to destroy this world. I didn't think it out. It was like the beginning of the destruction of all the inhabitants of this world. Massacre, end of the world?” marc said, his face looked terrified.
“Wait, you... Death Hunter?” repeat Gray, like a plain stupid man. “Don't joke, I've told you repeatedly!” marc was suddenly upset. “Hah? Did ya? When did you say it?” ask Gray again. “I told you! And in fact, I often use that power to overcome demons that cannot be set” explained Marc.
Gray looks mangosteen. “Is it hard, tell me before I get shocked? If you say it from the beginning, I might calm down because you're next to me. You are stronger than the others” he said later. Marc is currently dizzy. “You... what do you mean anyway?” marc began to get angry.
“About..that's what Reine would say, in response. Just in case..you reveal your secret” Gray said casually. He looked back at his wine. Marc's tongue is twisted.
Speechless
“You haven't told Reine, have you?” guess Gray. “I think, it is still not needed.” respond Marc. “After the Tobie incident, you think Reine will be fine and back to normal? No, Deval. His strength disappeared, he was helpless. Unfortunately, he also realized the lack of it. He must have sensed a change from the power of the Gem that could not protect him to the fullest. You feel it too, right?” said Gray. Marc was silent, Gray said as if only fact. He can't dodge.
“You think, by giving her love every day, you can get rid of her worries? No. gabe. He was worried, about everything. If you don't believe what I'm saying, just check yourself” challenge Gray. Despite trying to evade, Marc still does not have a strong foundation. The reality Gray described, put too much pressure on him.
As he looked at his head, Marc said,
“Do you have to... tell him?”
“You and him are a trusting couple. Whynot? That way, you guys won't be easily defeated”
“You say it as if. You look very calm”
Gray smiled knot. After gulping down his glass of wine, he stared at the scene from the window. “Do it, before you regret it. When you both know your weaknesses and strengths, everything will be easy. As if I have experienced it? Think of it as so” he said full of sad highlights. Again, he recalled the memories of his past with Carine.
After Marc's death, Gray continued to look at the city panorama from his window.
Can I give you a solution like that? Wouldn't it be harder for me to get Carine back, if the relationship between the two of them grew closer?, he asked inwardly. “Hhhmm, otherwise it might be another disaster? Well, it's gonna get even more troublesome until that shitty devil can't protect Reine. If Reine's body was destroyed, the worst possibility... Carine's gonna be stuck in there. Forever” Gray said speaking to himself.
“And so it was. The brat's plan, so that he wouldn't see me again. Basic, sucks!” grunt Gray was upset. However, the look of his disappointed face could not be contained. Honestly, he was not just disappointed. But also...
Mournfully.
His heart feels broken.
