Chapter 101: Main Scenario Clue!
1077 Words
After gathering much information through spreading out. I feel like my feeling is right. The only place that can hold this information is nothing but the Royal Castle... So, I immediately make my way to the most northern part of Coggs Villa. Which is also the cleanest, the nicest and the most royal out of all places in Coggs Villa... When I see all of this easily differentiate differences... It's natural for me to deduct that things are going to be important here...
I turn on our Party call and immediately stated.
"Everyone Regroup in the most northern part of the group. I've marked the place where we have all been going all of this time. So you guys don't need to worry to be lost in your map. Because I've fixed all of your damn map. So take your time finding me. Because it's not easy~"
Getting to me is going to be very tricky for them. Not because I'm low or high. It's just because they need to traverse through an endless corridor of bullshit to reach where I'm at and there's only one door that leads straight to me...
As I'm preparing to take my step into the Royal Castle...
"... May I ask who you are?"
A lady filled with grace walks down from the stairs greeted me on the bottom of the royal castle. She had this gorgeous long white hair, she is covered in this sort of cold aura that freezes everything around her. Not to mention, her pale white eyes that makes it seems like she's blind... Is captivating.
"State your business here, Stranger."
I immediately snap my finger and regain composure...
"My name is OneSec."
By me stating my name, it seems like the Royal Guardian Authority has been activated automatically and she immediately recognize my name. Her cold aura started to disappears as she smiled toward me.
"Is that so. My apologies for my rudeness. I did not realize that the one in front of me is the next holder of the Royal Guardian Authority. For that mistake, I hope you forgive me, Master OneSec."
... Wait, what? Master OneSec?
"Um... May I know your name, Princess?"
"Of course, Master. My name is Mona. I'm the first princess of Cogs Villa. Even though my Father is a Dwarf, I don't have the criteria of a Dwarf because my mother's influence in me is too strong to be overwritten by my father..."
"Are you... Related to Snow Women?"
"Yes, My Mother is a Snow Woman. That's why if you noticed from my appearance and aura. It's kind of chilly."
"Ah, it's easy to tell, honestly. You are indeed, sticks out a lot."
"Thank you for your compliment. May I know why you are here, Master?"
"For starter, why did you call me Master?"
It's not normal for an NPC to immediately call player a Master. Not when they're a Princess. Even if I have the Royal Guardian Authority, I'm not anyone master's.
"The reason why I call you master is very simple. We Royal Family, have traditions to calling the Royal Guardian Authority Holder as Master. Because through them, we can keep our royal capital safe and sound. But it's not always wonders and flowers between the two of them. The two of them became two because of a war that started it... Ewing is guardian of the east and north, while Gidora hold the west and south. A war broke out because one of them let an intruder in and wreck havocs between the two side... New emperor always ignored the fact that they're always fighting with each other... But not too long before this, we decided for them to continue to stay as a Guardian. Since it has been transferred to you, we should pay our respect to you too."
There's a lot of information to be unpacked by what Mona just said to me. I don't know when, but I started to black out due to how tired I am truly is. But I manage to regain information and understand what's been happening lately...
"I understand your history. You can keep on calling me Master if you want. Anyway, I'm here to talk to the king regarding the matters with the current Kingdom. Are you okay with it?"
"... Master OneSec wants to discuss that? Very well, I shall inform my father about this. Please get into the castle and rest up. You can call your friends too, by the way."
"Alright. Thank you for your assistance, Mona."
Of course, I followed Mona inside and she guide me to a guest room straight away. I immediately get inside and sat on the bed. It's clean and it's also safe from what I can say. With that, I immediately lay down and calls Mercy.
"Mercy, Where are you right now? Are you close to the Royal Castle?"
'We're close. Just a bit more and we'll be there. Where are you? Are you already in the Castle?"
"Yeah. I'm inside and waiting for more information from the king and also you guys. So, you are free to come into the castle right away according to the princess."
'That's good! We're close by. We'll be there in three minutes. Don't worry about it, OneSec!'
"Okay. I don't know why but sure!"
I feel like my mind has been fuzzy lately. So, I decided to take a proper break... Like, very chilled out right now. Lowkey, no problem appears in my mind...
But of course, sharp mind needs to be trained as well...
I started thinking about what can we discuss about in the future regarding Coggs Villa Situation. I don't know the problem but I know that there's a problem since Mona looks serious when I said something like that... I just hope that it's not a problem that's so big that I have to take too much time clearing it. After all, I need to rest after this...
Not too long after I rested... Everyone else arrived at my room...
"Yow... Sorry for our lateness again..."
"It's fine, Fangaztaz. It's not your fault that you're all late... Also Kaixen, can you just not look around the room? It's disrespect."
"Sorry, I just used to how I look around in hotel room."
"I guess so. Anyway... We're going to wait for a bit until we heard back from Mona. Before that, let me tell you what I've been doing..."
