The Absolute Twin Magician

Establishment of Alliances (part 2)

"From now on, I'm Louise Lawrence and also commonly called Osamu will make a temporary alliance. Zuan with his group will cooperate with the humans to repel the Rozalia troops!!"

"I, Zuan Von Archimiste accept it with pleasure."

The unexpected announcement echoed in the sky of the city of Bluelagoon which was coated in space magic without time. Everyone heard the statement clearly. Be it human beings or vampires, each of them threw a look of wonder at each other. Zero who was among the crowd immediately looked at me, as if asking for an answer. I just returned with a thin smile. This is not my time to explain. If you're curious, just ask Osamu directly. My job is to just propose and convey it. It is not my job to explain and explain.

The ReVoid Party seemed a little troubled by this state of affairs. They will certainly be a little hesitant about the decision to cooperate with vampires who are none other than their enemies. But as far as I know, they're not people who attach more importance to their ego than to their goals. With a little explanation, they would understand.

On the other hand, the vampires seemed to be at odds. They were vampires, their pride as a strong race was very high. They must be wondering, how could their leader agree to cooperation with humans who are often regarded as food by vampires.

"My goal is to eliminate Rozalia from this world. He is a threat to all races, both vampires and other races. Besides, I also have a personal grudge against him. As the one he turned into a vampire, I was unable to go against his every command. It made me lose my freedom and made me a slave. In this case it was only natural that I intended to eliminate him. Rather than living as subordinates and slaves, I prefer to live freely even by risking my pride as an honorable race."

Zuan said all of that out loud. He boldly revealed everything.

"After decades of effort, I realized that eliminating him alone was impossible. Even after my comrades-in-arms came to help, we were unable to do anything. Many of us have sacrificed ourselves to just try to hurt him, but ended up in vain. But after realizing the human abilities that we had been underestimating, I began to change my view. I have seen a light of hope that can lead us to our destination. Therefore, I with all my confidence accepted the invitation to join this cooperation ...."

"Vampirees who intend to eliminate Rozalia who have disquieted all races, and we who want to expel Rozalia from the town of Bluelagoon. With cooperation, our respective goals will be achieved, and we will forge bonds that have never been established throughout history." Connect Osamu.

As he said, if this alliance is formed, a new history will be formed. Today will be the first time humans and vampires team up to defeat an enemy.

"Before that, I need to hear the opinions of my colleagues." Osamu then looked towards us all.

" No problem, I agree." And the first to respond was Kayn. He said it without any doubt. Looks like something happened between Kayn and Elsie while I was leaving. "It's not a bad idea in my opinion. Vampires are also living beings. I don't think it's wrong to work with them. I'm sure Zayn thinks that way too."

"Yes, what Kayn said was right. I agree with this," I said. After Kayn said that, I might just shut up.

Hearing the answers of the two of us, everyone threw a glance at each other.

"I don't think this is a problem. With a reliable partner, all of these events can be solved easily." Miss Stephanie started to raise her voice.

"The more people the faster they finish. It's not a bad choice" Marry said.

"I agree" Hughess said.

"Huh, if you say so I have no other choice" Zero said. "I agree."

"So did I" said Gale.

All the members of the Magic Association agreed to this cooperation plan. As I thought, they would agree that Osamu represents us.

Even so, on the vampire side a little disagreement occurred. Currently, their group is divided into two groups. Agreeing with this plan, and disagreeing.

"How can we vampires ask for help from a weak race like humans?!" Bayorn.

"I agree! Please think back to Mr Zuan! This doesn't make any sense!" Katherine said too.

As I thought, their reason must be self-esteem.

"What doesn't make sense?" Answer Elsie. Among other vampires, Elsie was the first to agree to this plan. "Humans and vampires are not much different. After all, you were human too, weren't you?"

"That's been a long time! I don't even remember being ready before I became a vampire. I'm not like them anymore" Bayorn said. At first glance, Bayorn opposes this plan more than anyone else, even if only the two of them oppose it. "The vampire is much stronger than a human!"

"That's right! How could we ask for help from a race weaker than us?!" Katherine. "I'd rather ask the Lycan for help than the humans."

"Hoo, so you think the wolves are stronger than humans?" Ask Nebula.

"Truly self-destructive ..." said Gillan as well.

"i can't stop thinking. After you've seen how they beat Hermes, and you're still underestimating them?" vanessa.

I don't know what kind of race Lycan is. From what they said, it seemed like they were a half wolf race just like the Werewolves. And it seems, vampires and Lycan have a bad relationship with each other. Unlike humans, their relationship with Lycan seems more like Rival.

After hearing Bayorn and Katherine's reply, Zuan looked at the two of them with a sinister gaze.

"Bayorn, Katherine, you just said you're stronger than humans, right?" Ask Zuan.

"Y-yes, that's right."

"Then why can't you even beat one of them? When viewed from your condition, isn't that contrary to what you're saying?" Ask Zuan. "With your chaotic and battered body, you still say that you are stronger than them? I never knew that my subordinates were selfless people like you ...."

Bayorn and Katherine fell silent. As Zuan said, between all the vampires, they're both the worst. Although no body parts were missing, their condition was very chaotic and filled with scratches and tears on their clothes and bodies. In addition, their body condition also looks exhausted. I wonder who they're fighting with until it gets messed up like this.

"With your condition alone, it has proven that you are weaker than them. Remember, man is not weak. They become strong in their own way" Zuan said. Really the words of a leader. "Try answering. Do you think Rozalia is weaker than them?"

"Of course not!"

Again, they both remained silent.

"You ... Do you really want to defeat Rozalia?"

"T-of course! That's why we're following you, Mr. Zuan!"

"Then, we need their strength to defeat Rozalia. Therefore think carefully of your answers."

"Good!"

Zuan was silent and looked back at all his subordinate vampires.

"I'll ask you one more time. Do you agree with this partnership?"

Elsie, Nebula, Gillan, and the wounded Vanessa agree to this plan. Bayorn and Katherine were still a little hesitant. But a moment later, they finally steadied their answer.

"I agree" said Katherine.

"I agree too" said Bayorn. "This is for the future of the honorable vampire race ...."

Hearing her, Zuan smiled in satisfaction. The vampires agreed to this plan.

The rest of the final decision is in the hands of Vestine, from the ReVoid.

"Before that, I need to ascertain something from the vampire leader. May I ask you a little, Zuan Von Archimiste?" Said Mr. Vestine.

"Ask as you please. I'll answer what I can answer" Zuan said.

After getting Zuan's approval, Vestine began to ask. And of course, this question will be the determinant of the success of this plan.

"Yg first, do you intend to betray us?" Ask Mr. Vestine. Of course that question makes the vampires a little upset. The question seemed to say that Zuan was suspected of being a traitor.

"Are you seriously asking about that?" Ask Zuan. "I can't betray you. Even if I wanted to, it's impossible for me to answer this question honestly, right?"

That makes sense. If he intended to betray, he would surely lie and say sweet words that would save him from being accused.

"Just calm down, I'm aware of my position. To be honest, if I do anything here my life will be severely threatened. Besides, I've said everything we know, so why do we say everything if I intend to betray?" Ask Zuan. "If I wanted to, I would definitely give you false information. But I didn't do it. The information I gave you is original ...."

"He's right, I can vouch for him" Osamu said. I don't know where he got that confidence.

Mr. Vestine was silent on his answer. Is it possible that he intends to test Zuan?

"The second question is, why did you agree to this cooperation?" Ask again.

"Don't I tell you before? My goal is to eliminate Rozalia from this world. Since we can't beat him, I think working with someone with abilities like you will produce a satisfactory result. That's why I agreed to Louise's plan to make a partnership between humans and vampires" Zuan explained.

Mr. Vestine was silent again while nodding slowly.

"Last question, whose side are you on?"

This question is similar to the first question. In essence, Mr. Vestine wants to confirm whether he will betray or not. Maybe it's like that. I don't understand the way he thinks either.

Zuan fell silent, probably because he did not understand the meaning of this question. But after thinking for a while, he answered with certainty.

"I am not on the side of anyone who can defeat Rozalia" he said.

Hearing him, Mr. Vestine smiled faintly and then nodded.

"If you had told me that you were on our side, I might never have agreed to this cooperation. But your answer is quite interesting ...." Said Mr. Vestine. "Alright, I agree to this cooperation."

Wait a minute, I don't understand what he's thinking? Isn't it good that Zuan said they were on our side? From the answer, doesn't that mean he will be on the side of anyone who can defeat Rozalia? That means if he finds a stronger side, he'll switch sides?

"Can you explain what that last question means, Mr. Vestine?"

"As I said, I won't agree to this partnership depending on what he answers. If he says on our side, I can't trust him. The vampires who just met us all of a sudden say that he's siding with us for no apparent reason, doesn't that sound suspicious?" Ask Mr. Vestine. "But he didn't say that, and honestly said what he had in mind. A man like that I trust far more than a man who only says good in the beginning."

What the fuck? I really don't understand the way he thinks. This guy really amazes me.

"It's just my opinion, so there's no need to be dizzy. I just want to know how honest he is" said Mr. Vestine.

Although I still do not understand the way he thinks, the important thing is that this cooperation has reached an agreement. After Vestine agreed to it, the other ReVoid members also agreed. With this we will enter the next stage in the plan to fight Rozalia.

"Then, I hereby officially say that the Zuan camp will cooperate under our plan!" Osamu. "Well, it's time to turn things around."
