Jack and Henry were sitting inside a luxurious black car on their way to a certain place that Henry had not told him about. After about an hour, Jack noticed that he had entered a new district, which was B. There he found himself in the wealthy neighborhood and saw from the car window all kinds of beautiful houses that are here, but unfortunately He wasn't really sure about her beauty because he was currently like a total colorblind person, but then he noticed a secluded house where the car was parked.
"From here, Lady Cassia is waiting for you inside."
Henry made his way into the house, where Jack noticed that it was very wide from the inside. Then he climbed the stairs with Henry until he reached a room without a door, and there he saw the form of six guards distributed around the door and inside the corners of the room, and in the middle there was that man with a scar. Next to him is a chair on which Kasia appears, who appears to be reading a book.
Jack thought to himself, "Ugh, is she trying to look educated and smart now? Just stop; you're embarrassing yourself."
"Sorry, ma'am, to interrupt your studies, but the transfer has arrived."
"Study? Well, I guess idiots like him exist in every world," Jack thought.
Cassia lifted the book, closed it, and placed it on a small table in front of her before returning her sight to Jack and smiling lazily.
"Oh, just in time, Jack. By the way, do you like the place? It's a simple house I use when discussing things with a group, so it might not look very elegant."
"Hmmm, I see. Although I'm more familiar with pictures, this is good too."
Cassia smiled at Jack's comment and then spoke coldly.
Okay, then let's not waste time; I ask and you answer."
Jack gave no reply, but Kasia continued.
"First, let me know exactly how many times I have moved between worlds."
"ten times"
"Second, were you playing the hero or the villain?"
"both of them"
"Third, how much do you know about carriers' disease?"
"I know enough."
"Tell me what you know."
Jack looked around the room in a strange way, then raised an eyebrow. "With all these people here?"
If you encounter this story on Amazon, note that it's taken without permission from the author. Report it.
Cassia looked at Jack for a few seconds before asking the six guards and Henry to come out, leaving only the man with the scar next to her in case Jack tried to attack her. After only the three of them remained, Jack looked at Cassia in a serious way, and he said
"First, to explain to you the basics, the disease that those who are infected with, its name is the curse, and it has two approximations, as it gives the people who are transmitted three options in the form of lights, and each light has its advantages, of course, although you call it a disease, but its symptoms do not appear to you; for example, the first thing that indicates That you are infected is the appearance of a tattoo on your body, and then..."
Jack looked like he was going to continue his speech, but he paused for a moment, put his hand on his chin, and started to think. Kasia waited with insight while staring at Jack, until finally Jack raised his head while insistently
"That's just what I'm going to say for now. If I want to know more, I must first know about you too, don't you think?"
Not acceptable, continue.
"No, I won't go on. If you want, run me, destroy my soul, or whatever. I don't care."
Cassia narrowed her eyes as she watched Jack in silence that lasted for minutes.
Tick tock tick tock
After finally several minutes passed, Kasia opened her mouth, saying
"Fair enough, okay, tell me; I'll share some of ours too."
"Goal!" Jack thought inside his mind; he currently managed to grab that woman’s attention by giving her almost everything he knows about the curse within the framework of the basics, and he also showed reluctance to tell her more intentionally to make her think that he really knows more; frankly, he doesn’t even know if The curse he knew was the same disease they were talking about, but he took that gamble!
"As I told you before, I am the leader of a secret group. Our aim is to overthrow the Miracle Dragon. It is the oldest and most powerful entity in the world. It is the source of knowledge regarding teleporters. No one has seen the Miracle Dragon for a long time, but our ancestors have already written down its instructions and entrenched them in all seven countries. Teach it to the provincial leaders of every state."
"Why do you want to overthrow him?"
"You'll know in the future."
"Do you even define where to find him?"
"All sources say that after teaching people his wisdom, he hid underground." Cassia paused, then continued, "They say he built an underground world to live in and put soldiers of monsters to guard it."
"Oh, that sounds interesting." Jack thought internally before asking.
"The government obviously worships the Fantasy Dragon while you are trying to overthrow it, but exactly how much strength do you have outside of this country?"
Kasia smiled at Jack's question.
"Here comes your turn. All six remaining countries’ governments will submit. I think you have realized that all countries have that soul-destroying device, so this is the right mission for you."
"Do you want me to take them all down?"
"No, we don't have time. We will help you. You will take over three countries, and we will complete the remaining three."
"I defeated three governments alone."
Do you think we have superpowers like yours?
"Who can assure you that you won't use that weapon against me after I finish my job?"
Oh, don't worry, we'll need you for the most important part of the plan—fighting the monsters underground!"
Jack laughed at how outspoken that woman was and her immediate desire to use him as a tool. Well, he really didn't mind because the system would reward him after all.
"Alright then, last question: do I also need to fight the Miracle Dragon on my own?"
"A dragon that has existed for thousands of years—I think it will not be alive, but if it is not dead, then we will gather to kill it all. Okay, so any additional questions?"
Jack shook his head and smiled darkly.
"When am I going to start hunting?"
