Chapter 2.4 - Dark Night
The woman was extremely shocked. She couldnât help but asked, âGreat one, if you do this, you might be forcing General Morgan to side with the Spider Empress! Moreover, calling a meeting now might very well cause a direct conflict with the Spider Empress! We still havenât completed our preparations!â
âDonât look down on Josh. Whether he stands on one side, or relies on neither, it is his own decision. Whether it is with me or with Lanaxis, both are fine, and it wonât affect his will too much. His unwillingness to arrest Su, on one hand tells me how he thinks and his willpower, but on the other it is simply buying a bit of time for Su. As for the conflict with Lanaxis⊠donât worry. If it truly breaks out, then let nature take its course. Even if we havenât completed our preparations, it should be the same for her as well!â
Bevulasâ figure that stood in front of the french window wasnât all that tall and sturdy, yet right now, it gave off a mountainous pressure. His calm and collected voice echoed through the office without scattering for a long time just like thunder in early summer.
âI will obey your distinguished selfâs orders!â The womanâs head was bowed even deeper, her forehead now almost touching the scarlet carpet! Her body was trembling slightly, feeling excitement for the upcoming battle.
âClaudia!â Bevulasâ voice became even deeper and colder!
âYes!â The trembling in the womanâs voice became even more distinct.
âEven though Josh wishes to buy Su a week of time, I do not want to give him this time! You should go. Find Su, and then kill him!â Bevulas said.
âI will obey your instructions!â Claudia stood up and walked towards the door. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared into the ancient castleâs dark shadows.
After Claudia left, Bevulas was still standing in his original spot without moving, calmly watching the surging great sea.
A soft laughter suddenly sounded from deep within the office. Then, a gentle and lovely voice sounded. âWhat about Persephone then? Do you need me to go deal with her? Oh, right, I heard she has quite a good friend named Helen. Even though this woman doesnât have any abilities, just a numbers and technology lunatic, she gives me quite the uncomfortable feeling. She might even be more annoying to deal with than Persephone! I can kill her first. If she isnât killed, that lunatic might bring us extremely great problems!â
Bevulas didnât pay this voiceâs suggestion much attention and instead asked, âWhat do you think Claudiaâs chances of success are?â
The charming voice said, âIf it is strictly based on data, then Claudiaâs success rate is at least over 90%. Based on the analysis of the data we have, Suâs eighth level Perception Domain is likely the panoramic view enabling âspace probeâ. Even though panoramic viewing is a rather amazing ability, its weakness is quite clear, and it is that its 50 meter range is just too limited. Claudia can launch a comprehensive attack from a distance of 500 meters, so Suâs eighth level ability is practically useless. However, if data can decide everything, then this world is too simple. Teacher Lagerfeldâs favorite quote is that data is just a drawing, and only after luck is added would that drawing develop a soul. That is why the unexpected will always exist, and we have no means of calculating the unexpected.â
âI remember Lagerfeld. Itâs been a while already, when is Westwood going to return?â Bevulas cut off the charming voice and asked a rather strange question.
An extremely beautiful woman quietly appeared behind Bevulas. She wore a black suit that had a bowtie fastened to the collar, and a drooping bowler hat covered a small half of her face. However, the clear chin and supple lips that were revealed exposed an ever present seduction. Her height of over 180 centimeters made it so that regardless of where she was, she would always be the center of attention.
She walked behind Bevulas, and then she gently massaged the shoulders of this elder who was quite a bit shorter. With a light laugh, she said, âI still like teacher Lagerfeld, as for Westwood⊠thatâs an extremely tedious psychopath. Based on his normal behavior, it should be another week before heâll reappear. However, I can feel that teacher Lagerfeld is extremely happy and does not wish to come back at all. Perhaps Westwood might delay his return by another week!â
Bevulasâ face became a bit downcast. It was clear that this wasnât a piece of news that made him happy.
The black clothed woman revealed an enchanting smile, as if she got her desired outcome. She increased her efforts on Bevulasâ shoulder, and then, with her lips almost touching his ear, she said, âWhy donât I kill Persephone in your distinguished selfâs place? Or if itâs Helen, thatâs fine as well. Please, please let me out! As long as you let me out, anything is fine!â
Even though this woman was making an all-out move, Bevulasâ voice remained dignified, not being moved by her in the slightest. âHelen cannot be killed, we cannot kill anyone in Dragon City. Perhaps someone else can do it, but you cannot! If you kill someone in Dragon City, then it is equivalent to directly challenging Josh. At that point, regardless of what type of attitude Lanaxis holds, Josh will definitely declare war against me! Eileen, are you trying to make things even more difficult because you feel like my current situation is too great?â
Eileen stuck out her tongue, reluctantly expressing a bit of fear. However, she immediately began to nag again, asking, âThen what about Persephone? It should be fine if I kill her, right?â
Bevulasâ voice was cold. âCan you even kill her?â
âIf her luck is good enough, then I only have half certainty. However, if I donât give it a try, who will know if her luck is good or not?â Eileen sounded as if she was talking about a completely insignificant matter.
Bevulas shook his head and said, âPersephone isnât important, so it isnât your turn to do anything yet. The emergency meeting will be held in a week, and you need to stay behind. There might be some trouble at that time.
Eileen was clearly unhappy. "Trouble? What kind of trouble can there be?! The parliament is just a group of cowards! Even if your distinguished self stood there alone, I doubt anyone would make a move. What is the point in me staying behind? Thereâs not even anyone to kill!â
Eileen suddenly thought of something, and even her breathing became a bit hurried. âWhy donât I go kill Su? What if Claudia fails?â
Finally, not even the chairman of the Blood Parliament could handle her nagging. He softly rubbed his forehead, and then with a sigh, said, âEileen, do you think I donât know? Without you, Claudia will definitely succeed, while if you joined in, she will definitely fail! Isnât the one you want to kill the most Claudia?â
Eileen released a cry of alarm, and then she couldnât help but shout out, âAh! How does your distinguished self even know about this? You really are too brilliant!â
However, forget about Bevulas, even if it was just a child, they would be able to hear the sarcasm in her words.
