Not felt, the day was getting darker. It's about 6 p.m. Civil society has been directed to immediately enter each other's homes. And we're also getting ready for work tonight.
Zero is preparing in the command tent with Vestine and Miss Stephanie. As Zero said earlier, he would show the abilities of the Magic Knights with his unique magic, Spectral Layer. Marry's brother Tony, Hughess, Guts, and Kayn are also preparing for tonight's attack, assisted by Shiki, Aoi and other ReVoid members. Everything went well. Even so, there is one thing that makes me uncomfortable.
"Zayn, it's night. What about your answer, huh?"
"Y-yeah ... I don't know either."
This gripping atmosphere is really disturbing. This is all because Fiera and Liana are never coming back. I had to face the anger of Chezie's sister he was venting on me.
"Hey Zayn, you better tell me where they are now." Brother Chezie squeezed my head while smiling furiously. I immediately tensed up as if I saw an angel of death squeezing my head.
"I really don't know where they are!" My reply. "H-hey Elie ... Can't you help me? Where exactly did the two of them go!?"
"Yes ... Maybe they're in my house?"
Hearing Elie's reply, Brother Chezie released my head from the clutches of his deathly hand and turned to Elie.
"What makes you think they're there?"
"Eh, y-yah, because Liana is currently living in my house." Elie replied with a slight stammer.
"Huh, looks like we need to check on her, Chezie."
From behind, Gale suddenly appeared and joined us. Seeing his arrival, Brother Chezie immediately put on a relaxed face, as if anger had never existed before. It seems, Gale's arrival has saved us.
"want how else. Looks like waiting for them is free too." I can't believe that Chezie's brother could be soft just because of Gale's arrival.
"Then Elizabeth, please take us to your house." And as usual, Gale was always polite to women. Maybe that's what makes him a playboy swordsman.
In an effort to find Fiera and Liana, we were forced to go to Elie's house. The distance from our home base is quite far, because we need to pass through districts 7 and 6 to be able to get to the residential area. It takes about half an hour to get there if you walk.
During that time, Elie and I thought hard about what we would say to Elie's parents if they met Chezie's sister and Gale.
Half an hour passed, we finally arrived in front of the gates of the Bathory residence. We were walking into his yard. But before that, we had to wait outside while Elie walked in and checked things out.
"Good night, Miss Elizabeth."
As usual, the servants greeted him at the door.
"goodbye ah, hey you two! What are you doing here?!"
Elie's greeting was immediately cut short when she realized that Fiera and Liana were sitting casually on the front sofa while eating snacks at the table. Fiera's careless behavior certainly makes the host upset.
"Huh? Didn't you see? We're on a break" Fiera replied casually. "We're tired after walking this afternoon. So tonight we'll just rest."
"W-what are you talking about?! We have a job, right?!"
"That's not important. Maintaining Fiera's health is much more important."
"Huhuh?! Then how about duty—
"just ignore. Elie's just resting here, too. Here, Fiera love snacks," said Fiera while offering a snack she was eating.
"Don't act like this is your home!" Shouted Elie. Ah, she's starting to get emotional. But the woman who was waiting at the door with me and Gale was so much more emotional.
"Hey Fiera's. Let's return. It's our job, we can't laze around here." Liana who feels bad about this begins to persuade Fiera. But his stubbornness was ingrained and could not be eliminated.
"No, Fiera is tired!!"
"Hey Fiera, if you get to Chezie's sister hearing this she could be even bigger." Liana.
"Huh, the guy's not here so don't worry. As long as Fiera here there will be no ap—
"Oh yeah? Is there nothing?!"
Damn, his emotions are unstoppable. Gale and I couldn't hold it much longer. Brother Chezie immediately barged in when he heard Fiera's words. Elie who also heard him looked at Brother Chezie worried and scared. And as for Fiera, she immediately goosebumps when she hears the voice of Brother Chezie just now. The same thing happened to Liana. They're really in trouble.
"Is there a problem with that?!"
"N-no, forgive Fiera!! Fiera said nothing!!"
Fiera suddenly got up and ran away. But for nothing, Manna's net of magic Puppet brother Chezie already controls his body. His body fell silent at once, and walked slowly towards Chezie's furious brother.
"Hey Fiera ... I heard you were lounging ... Is that true?"
"T-no! Fiera didn't say that!! Please forgive Fiera!! Forgive Fiera please!!!"
"Shut up! You're forbidden to talk until I tell you!!"
Instantly Fiera was silent. He then sat on a chair, with a pitiful face. Chezie and Gale sat on the couch. I thought we were just here to find Fiera and Liana. Is there anything they both want to talk about?
"Elie, since we're at your house right now, we'd like to meet your parents."
"Eh? O-my parents?"
"You haven't told them about your situation, have you?" Ask Gale. Elie immediately lowered her head.
"You can't keep that hidden from your parents. Sooner or later they will be aware and know the truth. Before that happens, you better tell them right away and talk honestly before things go bad."
Elie. I understand how sad he feels right now. Magic Assosiation was a secret group that was notoriously powerful and dangerous, even though it was all just mere rumors. A lot of people think of us as criminals, but some think of us as heroes. But in the eyes of the general public, we're just a bunch of assassins willing to do anything as long as they get paid. I don't know if Elie's people know about us or not. If they knew what we were like in their eyes. A killer, or a savior? Depending on what they believe, their reaction will greatly affect Elie, especially mentally. So he kept it a secret and kept it.
But this time, he had to say that whatever the reason.
"But ...."
"I know what you're worried about, but you have to do it. Your parents should know this. And I think now is a good time to say it" Gale said concernedly. I also convinced him.
"It's for the good of both your parents, Elie. You have to accept it. Whatever their answer is, don't think too much."
I hope what I say will strengthen his heart. Liana also tried to convince him in her own way.
After a moment of thought, Elie finally determined what she was going to do.
"All right, I'll do it. I'll be back soon" he said as he walked down the hallway of his house. Liana also accompanied him. Meanwhile me, Fiera, Gale and Brother Chezie were waiting in the living room.
"You two. As long as his parents come, don't speak a word. Understood?"
"M-understand!"
"Don't worry Zayn, let me and Chezie take care of it for you" Gale said. Hearing that I was a little relieved.
"Well, that's not for Zayn! Elie has nothing to do with Zayn! Only Fiera bo—
"Huh? Didn't I tell you to shut up?"
"I'm sorry Fiera!!"
For nearly 10 minutes of waiting, Elie and Liana did not show up. If you look around, it looks like the time has shown at 7 pm. The operation tonight must be running. When everyone was working on it, we even relaxed in a noble residence like this.
20 Minutes later, they finally returned. This time, they came together with Elie's parents. The head of the Bathory family, Vermount Bathory and his wife, Celica Bathory. We all stood up and paid him our respects as a host and as a courtesan.
"It's nice to see you again, Zayn. And also, are you Zayn's relatives?" Ask Mr. Vermount.
"Sorry to introduce yourself too late. My name is Gale Lion. Knight of the Siberian kingdom."
"My name is Chezie Moonwhale, I am a Countess of the Huntmoon kingdom."
Hearing the introduction of the two of them, Vermount sir and Celica's mistress were slightly amazed. Me, Elie and Liana were also a little shocked. I never knew that Brother Chezie was a Countess of the Huntmoon Kingdom.
"It looks like this guest is very special. A Knight as well as a Countess from outside the kingdom. I can't believe someone as important as you met into the Viscount's residence like me." Said Mr. Vermount also with the ethics of a noble. "My name is Vermount Bathory, the head of the Bathory family.one of the Viscounts of the Bluelagoon kingdom."
"My name is Celica Bathory, wife of a Viscount of the Bluelagoon kingdom."
