Chapter 422 - 422: Lyrue (1/2)
Leaving the interrogation of those three fake doppelgangers to Qis, Alaric and Valkyrie, we quickly move from the orphanage (leaving Serpie behind as it configurate itself with Housey and Calypso Tree), to the R&D department since our objective is to let Sachmis use the model of Achalasia to track down Simba and his fellow conspirators
With the other guests still following us around (since they needed the confirmation first hand as to what's happening, especially to Demon King, Druser), I talk to them the most likely culprit. Of course, Diana has the same idea
”The Traitorous princes of the Demon Kingdom” [Ash]
”Now, they're better known as the Meddling third party” [Diana]
I see. So they're going by that name nowadays. I think there is too much information being provided to me, that maybe it simply slipped from my mind, or maybe they overloaded me with updates after my long slumber that they just thought one of them already told me about it. Well, at least I do know their allies as well, which is strange. I know they're working together with Simba and Serial killer dwarf, but I don't even know that I didn't knew about their group names. Talk about strange
As for the reason why I suspect them behind the kidnapping, part of it has to do with the side effects of the blessing from Diana and another part of it is because
”Me?” [Farhah]
”That's right. It suddenly hit me... We have an Avery and soon to be Mermaid Queen here with us. We also have Seraph which is basically Ruler of Angel. What we still didn't have is Traveler King to represent dwarf. Human King and King of Beast. To end it all, we might have Iblis on our side, and that's all made possible with a certain someone” [Ash]
”That's Sis Rafiah?” [Zerolith]
”CORRECT!” [Ash]
The original ten heroes, alongside those seven titles that I mentioned, they fight side by side against a common enemy that's the fallen god. Whether it's coincidence or planned, I get this feeling, the ten heroes and those seven representative will rise once more for the finale with God of Life. It doesn't really matter that Farhah is an Avery while Charlotte is the soon to be Mermaid Queen, since some of the original ten heroes also bore the titles as well
”But what will Rafiah do...!!!” [Claude]
(I can tell Claude already knew the answer, at least the beginning of the answer) [Ash]
Since witches are still clouded with mystery, even in this world....
(This world?) [Ash]
Strange... Did I ever meet a witch before, on earth? Maybe Father and Mother met them? Maybe. It's like some sort of wire inside my brain just refuse to connect just yet for me to remember it all. Plus, just why did the word ”this world's witches” bring me this much confusion?
Well, there's no point in thinking too hard about it right now. I don't think I can come up with the answer even if I take my brain out and squeeze it dry, so let just move on to our agenda
”Anyway, Sachmis, if you would” [Ash]
”I just need to point out a place right?” [Sachmis]
”Given how great this model of Achalasia is, I can bet my money that it will work” [Ash]
”But what if I pointed out wrong” [Sachmis]
