That morning, just after Hughess and Zero arrived, Kayn and I hurried off to the Bathory residence. The goal is of course to pick up Elie and Liana, as well as tell them about the cancellation of plans this morning.
As usual, the atmosphere of the city was still quite quiet. Naturally, it's only 6 o'clock. Most people are still preparing to start their activities at home. Only a few people could be seen walking down the city street.
A few minutes walk, we arrived in front of the Bathory residence is quite magnificent. No matter how many times I look at it, I'm always amazed. This place is really big.
Kayn and I entered, and immediately rushed to knock on the front door. The gatekeeper had gotten used to us and let us in easily. And without hindrance, we had already arrived at the front door of this Bathory residence.
[Tok tock]
Door knocked. A moment later, one of the servants who was working at the time appeared and opened the door. For a moment, he looked shocked at our arrival. And once again, having grown accustomed to our arrival, he soon learned of the meaning of our arrival.
"Ah, Mr. Kayn and Mr. Zayn. Do you want to see young lady again today?" Ask them kindly.
"Y-yeah, that's it," Kayn replied. "Sorry to trouble."
"No no, we're just glad that the best and friendliest person you want to be friends with our shy young lady."
At first glance I laughed a little. Shy said? Is he kidding?? Yes, maybe in the eyes of those who have known Elie for a long time, she is a shy girl. But in our eyes, she's a chatty girl who sucks enough.
"Then please come in and sit in the living room. I'll call the young lady to you soon, sir."
"Yes, thank you very much."
According to the instructions of the waiter, we entered and sat on the sofa provided in the living room. This morning, it seemed that the servants serving the Bathory residence had resumed their daily grind. From earlier we often saw several servants pacing through the living room, complete with their own equipment.
About a minute after we arrived, the sound of quite loud footsteps could be heard from behind the hall where the waiter had gone to call Elie. The sound of footsteps sounded snapped, like someone who was upset about something.
I'm sure it's Elie, and it seems she's upset about waking her up on a holiday like this. How else, this is a mission.
"Ugh, who is the one who's visiting this early in the morning?! Though I was very busy—
"Morning, Elie," I said.
For a moment, he stopped and looked at us. Sure enough, it was Elie who was upset. Looks like he really upset the arrival of guests this early in the morning. But from his expression, it seems that he did not know that it was us. No, rather he wasn't told that it was us.
"E-eh, Zayn?"
"Sorry to disturb your busy morning ...."
"Wait for what you're doing here, Zayn?!"
"Hey, I'm here too. At least say hello to me too" Kayn said.
"A-ah, that's right."
I can't believe it's so surprising that he forgot about Kayn.
"N-don't wait a minute, Zayn, Kayn, why are you guys coming so early in the morning?!! Don't you have a date?!"
"Calm down, Elie. There is some sudden news we need to tell you. But it seems, it's better that Liana is here too" I said.
"Ah right too, Liana is still in the room" Elie said.
Hearing that, the waiter who had called Elie understood and immediately rushed off to call Liliana. Meanwhile, Elie sat down with us, trying to calm herself down.
"I can't believe you guys came this early."
"I also did not expect that you also wake up early even on holidays" said Kayn.
"A-ah, yes ... There's actually something I have to do today so ...."
Elie's answer seemed to be hiding something. I became curious.
"Something? Looked at from anywhere, you look like a girl getting ready to go on a date" I said.
"E-uh?! Wh who? Me?"
"Who else if not you."
"W-what are you talking about? I look like I always do."
"With fancy clothes and makeup on your face? Are you always like that at home?" My toot. Elie jerks.
"True, you do look like that ...." Kayn also noticed.
"T-no, well, actually, how do I explain it yeah ...."
"Just explain, is it hard?"
Elie speechless. Apparently, it was something embarrassing, which he didn't want to show us both. But still, our curiosity made the two of us continue to urge him.
He finally gave up and explained.
"Actually ... I want to go to the town where Zayn and Fiera are going on a date. The plan is, I'll pretend I happened to meet you guys and go with you guys ...." Her speech.
"E-uh? Just right."
"It turns out so. Well take it easy, the plan was canceled really," I said.
Instantly Elie raised her head and approached me. Of course I was surprised by his reaction.
"really?! Does that mean you're going on a date with me today Zayn?!"
"Calm down, I'm not done talking yet" I said, keeping his face away from mine. "It's not just that, actually. All our plans for this Sunday were canceled, including Kayn's date with Liana."
"Eh?! Why that?! What's going on?!" Ask Elie.
Without us knowing, Liana had already appeared. And apparently, he also heard our conversation just now. It was from his face that looked very sad. It was as if all her hopes had disappeared. Kayn and Liana are looking forward to this day.
"How ... Can you?" Ask Liana lirih. But he insisted on restraining her, and was firm.
"Before that, sit down first, Liana," Kayn said.
Trying to hold back her emotions, Liana sat down beside Elie while bowing her head. It seems that he is really sad.
When we all got together, Elie I asked Elie to make sure no ministry heard all our talk. Therefore, he activated the Infinity Chamber just in case.
No more pleasantries. From here on, our conversation began to get serious. From here, Kayn explained everything.
"Elie, Liana, there's a mission for us today. Therefore, with a heavy heart we are forced to postpone our plans. You remember, don't you, the terms we received from Uncle Oliver?"
"That's ... If you wish to continue here, you must not refuse or delay any task assigned from the headquarters to you. Right is that one?" Ask Elie. Kayn nodded.
"really. Therefore, we cannot refuse it even if we want to. And this morning, Zero and Hughess came to our house and reported on the assignment."
"So ... You didn't cancel it because of a trivial matter, right?" Tany Liana's. Apparently, he had started to accept the fact, even though he still seemed sad.
"Calm down, it's not canceled, it's delayed. We can do it after this mission is complete" Kayn replied.
"B-good ... I'll wait for that day" Liana replied.
After Liana completely calmed down, Kayn explained the details of her mission to Elie and Liana. Of course the news of the yellow demon attack on the kingdom of Voracity, up to the mission of infiltration into the capital of Voracity. He explained everything in detail as usual. And they both caught him quickly.
"That's ... Isn't that heavy enough?" Ask Elie. Well, I also realized that the mission this time would be very heavy.
"If everything goes according to plan, this will be fine. Well, I also hope that the yellow demon lord does not intervene this time," Kayn said.
"But, are you okay with that, Kayn? Isn't your mission much more dangerous?" Liana asked worriedly.
"Just relax, I know my limits and I'm not a reckless person like Zayn. As long as we move carefully, we will definitely be fine," he replied confidently.
"Well, I hope so. But wait, what the fuck did you say to Kayn? You're saying I'm being reckless?!"
"Isn't that true?" Kayn asked as if he was innocent.
"Yes, Zayn is like that." Wait, why are you supporting her Elie?!
"Haha ... There is no denying it." Even Liana thought so too?!
Huh, no one seems to really think of me.
"In that case, we'll leave this morning as well. You two quickly clean up all your luggage. Don't bring anything unnecessary, okay?"
"Just calm down, we know, you know" replied Elie.
"You better hurry, because what's going to take us to the border is Zero" I said. "You know what Zero would do if we were late?"
"Ugh, I don't want to hear what he's going to say ...."
Elie and Liana rushed towards their room and prepared all their luggage. This mission is likely to be a long-term mission, therefore careful preparation is needed. And of course, they also needed to explain their situation to Elie's parents. Well, if that's the case we leave it to Elie.
Now, we both live in the living room. Without Elie, without Liana, and without servants. We really are just the two of us.
"You're tough too, Kayn."
"Well, how else. This is the deal we made at the beginning. We can't break it" Kayn replied. But still, he did not seem to accept it.
Kayn lowered his head on the floor, clasping his hands tightly together as he clenched his teeth.
"Even though I say like, I am still an ordinary human being. Seeing Liana feel so sad when she heard this news alone made me so crowded. And for some reason, I felt like I wanted to exterminate all the demons that caused this. Destroying them is not enough, they also need to feel all the suffering they cause because of their actions ...."
I kept quiet hearing all his words. This is the real side of Kayn that he doesn't want to show anyone but me.
His hatred for the demons had already completely surpassed anyone in this world. And that's certainly not a good thing. As long as he is in this hatred, he will be distressed by it and will be beyond help.
Hate too much will only hurt yourself. And conversely, excessive love will hurt her slowly.
Despite saying that, my current condition is more or less the same as Kayn's.
"I will definitely kill all the demons in this world."
