“About that was the beginning of the meeting of the three of us so that in the end became friends,” said Cresh.
“Yes, I understand the core of your story. But I still don't know what this story has to do with what I asked you.” I complained to Cresh.
“Haih, you can't save your complaint until I tell you everything until it's over, Mr. Kei.”
“My time is too precious to waste know.”
“So why are you asking me if my story takes up that precious time of yours? Shouldn't you just let it go?”
“Only for ‘guarantee’.”
“guarantee? What do you mean?” Cresh slightly raised his tone.
I'd better not immediately mention what I mean by 'guarantee'. Because it would be dangerous if Vany also listened.
It might take a little patience now. Besides, I was also wondering why Cresh was saying that the guardian of the Klaurius family was Luchifer.
I don't think he'd be that easy to blame his childhood best friend. Or maybe Luchifer who was his best friend and Luchifer who slaughtered the Klaurius family were different people.
This seems to lead to an interesting incident to listen to.
“Vany, can you bring a snack here before we listen to the continuation of the romantic story about the love triangle between Cresh, Kei, and Luchifer,” I told Vany to let her get out of here for a while.
“What triangle love? Do you think I'm gay?” Cresh—who looked annoyed, immediately replied.
Actually I had already closed my ears so that the sound was not heard, but it was still enough to hold it.
“Hihihi, it looks like that latest soap opera will be very interesting.” Vany started the fire I had made. “Then, wait for me for a minute to grab some snacks before the story begins.”
“OK!”
After Vany left, I activated the Detection Technique to make sure there were people who wanted to eavesdrop on my conversation with Cresh.
Since no one eavesdropped, I finally started the conversation.
“Cresh, can I ask you one thing?”
“I'm not—”
“This time is no joke.”
“As far as you are. But I don't promise to answer.”
“Alright, I'll be straight to the point. Ekhm .... Do you want to work with me to defeat the ruler?”
“I have no desire to do that. I just want us to work together for a while in order to defeat the ruler.”
"In other words, you have formed a group to defeat the ruler. However, since you're still lacking members, you intend to make alliances with other groups, such as BlackList?"
“Forming a group alone is already very troublesome. Especially if you have to make an alliance gradually. Where might I be able to do it”
“So, what do you mean exactly.”
“We will make an alliance indirectly to attack ‘Court’ and defeat 'The Ruler'.”
“How could you possibly do such a thing.”
“Alliances are formed for the same purpose. I hope you've understood so far what it means.”
Hygiene ....
After a while, Vany came with snacks and warm tea. Fortunately, he came at the right time. Because now it is to be determined whether the negotiations that I have done will succeed or fail.
“Chairman, how to continue your love triangle story?” vany Goda after putting his luggage on the table.
“Will I consider.” Cresh replied seriously.
“What is this, Chairman?”
“Let him consider it first, Vany!” I cut it straight away.
Vany raised her eyebrows and looked at me in surprise. However, he did not seem very interested in asking.
“OK. I understand.” He also sat on his chair.
Cresh looked very serious in response to my offer. Obviously he will be confused because of this, because his decision can affect future events.
However, if at this time Vany continues to urge him to tell her story, then inevitably he will tell her. And so, I made Vany stop urging Cresh.
Due to the decision of whether Cresh would tell me his secret or not, this would signify a statement of agreement or disapproval. I'm sure he's understood since I said that this story would be used as a guarantee. And I hope he also understands that I don't want this cooperation to be known to others. And whatever the decision is, I will still appreciate it.
Cresh took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly.
“After I consider. I'll tell you about that incident. But you must promise never to spread about the incident.”
So in conclusion, he agreed to cooperate with me. Could he be considering last night's events.
And now he seems to understand why I made such a big scene last night. Because the reason I did it was to get Cresh to consider this cooperation in a way that attracts attention and gains trust.
“Because you guys are waiting, I will start telling you.”
