Will of chaos

Chapter 255 – Cap 254: Elsari’s Discontent

Pov Elsaris: 

  It's been three days since we arrived in this village, according to Zenos he must have already finished the preparations to heal my sister. 

  One of his subordinates, the White Elf by the name of Caryna came to me today, she said that Zenos wanted to talk to me during the morning before we went on the raid. 

  The only thing I could think of was that he was going to heal my sister, I couldn't wait any longer, because of this anxiety I couldn't even sleep through the night. 

  ———– 

  At the same moment that the only sun in the sky of this dungeon was born I ran to Zenos' room, when I got there he was still sleeping, but I saw the Oni girl lying next to him hugging him with a big smile. 

  As soon as I arrived she noticed me and her smile froze as she looked embarrassed at me, then she got up and ran over to me holding my shoulders as she spoke with a red face. 

  "What are you doing here at this time of the morning, Elsaris?"  (Ibuki) 

  "…" (Elsaris) 

  "What you saw?"  (Ibuki) 

  "…" (Elsaris) 

  "Are you going to tell the master?"  (Ibuki) 

  "…" (Elsaris) 

  "Please don't tell the master."  (Ibuki) 

  "…" (Elsaris) 

  The young Oni panicked and started shaking me back and forth while gripping my shoulders tightly, she kept asking questions in a low voice without giving me time to respond as she didn't have any bad intentions behind her behavior I don't I reacted and waited for her to calm down a bit before speaking. 

  After she calmed down a bit and stopped talking, I was finally able to say something in a low voice. 

  "Don't worry, I won't say anything, I apologize for interrupting you."  (I) 

  "Aren't you going to say anything?"  (Ibuki) 

  "No, now would you please let go of my shoulders."  (I) 

  "…" (Ibuki) 

  After she lets go of my shoulders she runs out of the room, after she leaves I look towards the bed. 

  "How long have you known, said Fairy?"  (I) 

  "How did you know I was awake?"  (Layla) 

  "Fairies have powerful senses, it's impossible for you not to have woken up with someone other than your master so close to you."  (I) 

  "You're not funny at all, not even the master knows it."  (Layla) 

  The strange four-armed Fairy who has physical features very similar to Zenos gets up from the bed and comes flying towards me. 

  "You shouldn't worry about Ibuki, all she does is hug the master some nights while he sleeps, she's harmless."  (Layla) 

  "Is she the only one who does this?"  (Elsari) 

  "Sometimes there are some dangerous people that appear, but I always push them away, it would be dangerous to let them near the master while he sleeps."  (Layla) 

  "How can someone with his strength and senses sleep like this?"  (I) 

  "This is a mystery to me too, his sleep is very heavy."  (Layla) 

  It was a mystery to me how a Vampire could sleep so much at night that it normally would be when we were most active. 

  "Why are you here? Freya doesn't usually show up at this hour."  (Layla) 

  "He asked the White Elf named Caryna to tell me to show up here in the morning, as I thought it had something to do with my sister, so I decided to show up as soon as this fake dungeon sun appeared."  (Elsari) 

  "I'll wake him up, wait a second."  (Layla) 

  The Fairy flies until she is facing her master's face, then she uses her four hands to start slapping his face from side to side for a few seconds with a smile on her face. 

  "(This Fairy is really weird, she dares to do this even to her own master.)" (I) 

  Then he wakes up and with great speed grabs this strange Fairy, then he gets up looking at her with a nervous look. 

  "You little Demon…" (Zenos) 

  "Let go of me, that's what you deserve for not letting me fight, idiot master, idiot, idiot."  (Layla) 

  "You'll see what's good this time, I have to teach you to respect others."  (I) 

  Glowing lines start to come out of Zenos' fingers, completely tying this Fairy in a way that she won't be able to move. 

  "(What kind of Vampire has lines coming out of its fingers? Was it a Spider monster before it evolved into a Vampire?)" (I) 

  "I'll take you to Caryna and tell her I'll help her clean the mansion all day."  (Zenos) 

  "What? No, I'm not doing housework, do you think the big me is going to do something so boring?"  (Layla) 

  "When I leave you with Freya and Caryna you won't have a choice."  (Zenos) 

  "Don't do that, I promise not to wake you up like this again, forgive me master."  (Layla) 

  "Now it's too late to regret it."  (Zenos) 

  Another line comes out of Zenos' fingers, this time this line covers the mouth of the little Fairy that Zenos leaves on the bed thrashing around, as he stands up and looks at me. 

  "I'm sorry to show you this, did you come because of the notice I sent through Caryna?"  (Zenos) 

  "I don't care what you do with your Fairy, I came here because you asked me to meet you in the morning."  (I) 

  He looks out the window before looking at me again. 

  "I didn't think you would show up so soon, just wait for a second while I go to the bathroom."  (Zenos) 

  "All right."  (I) 

  Zenos walks out the door, I ignore the Fairy thrashing around on the bed as she tries to use magic to break free, but she can't, it seems this line is resistant to magic, I walk over to the balcony doors and open them. 

  I spend a few minutes on the balcony waiting for Zenos to return, then he appears wearing a combat outfit and with his hair slicked back. 

  "Apologies for the delay."  (Zenos) 

  "Alright, you called me to tell me something, right?"  (I) 

  "Yes, I wanted to let you know that I will finish the preparations today to help your sister."  (Zenos) 

  "…" (I) 

  I knew it had something to do with my sister, but still hearing such confirmation filled my heart with happiness, the happiness I hadn't felt in a long time. 

  "I understand that you are happy, here take a handkerchief for you to dry your tears."  (Zenos) 

  I accepted her handkerchief, but only later did I understand her words, I hadn't realized she was crying, this is not something that happens very often to me. 

  "That makes what I have to say now a little difficult."  (Zenos) 

  "…" (I) 

  "But I would like you to wait a few more days until the fight against Farus is over."  (Zenos) 

  "…" (I) 

  "Do you want me to wait? What if you can't defeat Farus? What if you die during the battle?"  (I) 

  "How can I help my sister?!"  (I) 

  How can he say that, the only reason I left the Black Market and switched factions was to help my sister. 

  I've come all this way and been following his orders all this time for my sister's sake, how dare he say for me to wait longer. 

  "I know I'm asking too much, but I have my reasons for it, come to my room overnight and you'll find out what I mean."  (Zenos) 

  "I'll even explain how I'm going to help your sister and why I needed all those barrels of rabbits blood."  (Zenos) 

  "…" (I) 

  After he finished talking I jump off the balcony and leave furiously, even though I feel like spanking him now, I don't dare do that as I still need his help, so I get out of there before I do something I'll regret. 

  ———– 

  Two hours after my conversation with Zenos, the army of that village entered the Dungeon, thanks to the Nymphs and Arachnes many tents were built on the third floor near the mansion. 

  Then we started moving or to be more precise, the Spirit of Zenos and a Shadow Fairy started moving through the mountain range while everyone stayed inside the Dungeon. 

  The first day passed while the makeshift huts were being built, when it got dark I went to Zenos' room as he talked during the morning. 

  Before entering the room I could hear the voices of Zenos and Vanessa inside the room, in addition to being a Vampire who has strong senses, I was also from a race of Rabbits who have the strongest sense being hearing, so I can hear things from afar, in addition to having skills that improve my hearing even more. 

  "Are you sure you said, Father?"  (Vanessa) 

  "Yeah, we still need her help, so the least I can do is explain why I want to put off helping your sister."  (Zenos) 

  "That's not the problem, I can understand your motives and I can also understand Elsaris' anger."  (Vanessa) 

  "But that's no reason to share your secrets with her, especially a secret that could put you in danger."  (Vanessa) 

  "(What secret is this?)" (I) 

  "But if I don't, she might leave, she might think I'm deceiving her."  (Zenos) 

  "Besides, once you know how I'm going to help her sister, one of the things she's going to realize is that it's not going to be easy to find someone else who can do that."  (Zenos) 

  "But I still don't like it."  (Vanessa) 

  "Stay calm Vanessa, sooner or later she would find out about this, she was very clear that she would join our group along with her kids, so sooner or later she would find out just like everyone else."  (Zenos) 

  "(Looks like Vanessa doesn't agree with Zenos telling me whatever he's going to tell me, meanwhile it looks like Zenos doesn't keep secrets from those who serve him.)" (I)
