Gonna crush out 4 or 5 chapters today and take a break tomorrow.
===========================================================
I really wanted to tell both of them to cut it out before it got really dangerous and as i was about to speak i could hear someone coming from the other side of the hallway with haste and faint breath.
-Wait,evangaline
I turned around to the person and realized it was chase,she had changed outfits from her usual easy to move clothing to some kind of black colored business dress which actually fitted her curves.
She quickly moved towards the side of the little girl and started to hold onto her keeping her from speaking or doing anything the little girl in question just stood there still looking at hestia with a cold stare the butler that was standing the whole time not doing anything didn't even breath his body was silent as it could get as if it was a statue so i didn't want to look him anymore.
-Master james i am very sorry for my sisters rudeness please forgive her she isn't very good with strangers but she can be very sweet.
I nodded at her not particularly caring whatever she would have said to me other than meat bag which already explained a whole lot of her personality.
Hestia also just looked the other way annoyed and crossing hands with a snort,chase was also looking at hestia a bit confused until i told her.
-She is my subordinate and she is also going to stay with me for the next day when the ticket arrives i am expecting that you have another seat for her ?
There was a slight crack in her expression when she saw hestia she obviously didn't like her and i could feel hostility aimed towards her which got stronger when she noticed we were wearing the exact same thing just with a different color.
-Yes...thats..thats no problem master james i will tell the slaves to do that and once again i am honored you accepted my selfish request...and while we're at it would you please follow me into the dining hall...
The little girl who was quiet seemed a bit confused why her elder sister was talking to me so politely,the elder sister in question just squeezed the girl tight until it hurt making the little girl welp and understand at the same time her sight also dropped to the ground as she hugged her over sized teddy bear harder.
Hestia and i also started to follow chase,on the walk chase tried to start some conversations with me but i answered briefly not giving her a chance to continue the conversation resulting in a cold atmosphere which wasn't hostile or awkward but really cold and borish,hestia also wasn't in the mood to talk as she followed me by my side looking around the place very curious..she had probably never seen so much if you think about it,i am after all the first person to had ever summoned her.
While we were walking i was thinking about how much time i had steward gave me pretty much 2 days in which would end tomorrow..i wasn't really confident that i could make it in time and i was also a bit worried about stella but i was set to ease knowing that leraje and cecilia are looking after her i would only need to concentrate on this and be over with it....
Hestia seemed a bit shifty for some reason as she nudged me from the side.
-young master we are nearing the 3 strong individuals that i told you about i don't really know what kind of meeting you have but i would advise you to be careful even thought i am much stronger than them so staying by my side is always a good thing and keeping your guard up also doesn't hurt...
-you don't have to remind me hestia..
I sighed for a second..making hestia smirk for a moment.
-Thats why i am telling you to be at ease and let me show off in front of you !
There goes her true intentions...
And with that said we finally arrived in a set of doors which chase took the honor to open the little girl was still holding onto her giant teddy bear while the undead butler just continued to move behind her.Hestia also took the chance and got closer to me almost hugging me too...maybe i should have told her the same thing i told leraje regarding bodyguard issues but it's too late now...
-If you may master james
Chases smiled at me as she opened the door with both hands revealing a large dining hall,very extravagant with a chandelier on the middle of the room and a large-sized table with very exclusive seats.Heads were turning towards us as i could see another 5 individuals 2 of which were sitting next to the table-turning their heads towards us with curiosity in their eyes,both of the guests were woman having the same characteristics like chase which was silver hair one of them woman seemed to be a teenager while the other one was an adult.As their eyes started wandering around the entrance they were especially interested in it seems locking their eyes on mine.
-Ahh sisters welcome... how have you been...
Chase stepped into the dining hall with bold steps as i started to follow her i wasn't really interested in anything and just kept quiet while following her instructions i didn't look at the 3 men that were standing behind the 2 woman because it wasn't relevant to me in the slightest as chase showed me my seat which was exactly beside her and that on the right,hestia also sat by my left side me ending up sandwiched between these two,the little girl was seated on the very end of the table still hugging her teddy bear,hestia seemed actually really bored and didn't as much look at the two woman head turned towards the other side, 2 woman raised their eye-brows by hestias mannerism but didn't try to talk back to her...something was wrong i was sure they would start to try lecture her or just attack her with this,from what i can see people can be killed here just for sneezing.
You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.
The adult woman changed her sight from hestia towards me very interested it seemed even the teenage girl was attracted to look at me smiling wickedly...
-chase wouldn't you introduce us to your guest ?
The adult woman suggested making
-yes,your right this master james he is the current buyer of the colloseum ticket and will stay here for the next day.
-Greetings
I said while nodding towards them in a neutral manner,the teenage girl waved at me with a hi and the adult woman smiled at me nodding approvingly.
-Now lets not stay empty the whole time lets start eaiting(Clap Clap)
Chase stood up and started clapping her hands notifying the slaves to bring in the different cuisines,the smell of food radiated in the air as dozens of carts started to come out from another room,the slaves who were pushing the carts started to one by one deliver the dishes in front of us and to the table covering it up completely with all kinds of dishes which smelled divine it took them only 1 and a half minute to finish their serving as they quickly got back leaving the room in cold sweat they were all woman by the way with very revealing clothing.
-Now lets eat !
Chase announced and with that said everyone started to eat their dishes even hestia who was quiet the whole time took a lot of interest in the food eating it with delish and a smile on her face,i sniffed the food in the air as to see of there were any drugs mixed in to discover there weren't any i wasn't expecting there to be any but being careful doesn't hurt as i started to put the sweet soup into my mouth...it probably looked weird with the mask on but the mask had an invisible slit on the mouth that allowed me to eat something without needing to put it off and when chase saw that i ate the food normally i could see a sour expression which she quickly hid away...her plan didn't seem to work shame on her.
While we were eating the sisters were starting to talk amongst themselves talking about the events that happened so far and how they were doing they even talked about many disturbing things such as the count of the corpse that had piled somewhere which almost made me lose appetite which chase of course noticed changing the topic,the only people who weren't talking were just me,hestia and the little girl called evangaline we were all just eating our dishes until in the middle of the conversation between the sisters the adult woman started to call out to me with a question we had all already introduced ourselves with names when we started eating and her name was morgana while the name of the teenage girl was ashe...i was actually hoping for this to end without me talking.
-So master james may i ask what you do for a living ? oh no wait i may have actually heard of your name before...
Morgana said a bit thoughtful while i was actually confused...there was no way she would have been able to know me she probably just confused me with someone until she said.
-Actually are you a member of the broken brotherhood ?
As she finished saying that i could hear the sound of steel breaking i looked towards my right side and noticed that chase had broken her spoon while gnashing her teeth looking at morgana venomously as she said to her.
-You sly vixen..you actually planted a bug somewhere didn't you ?
I was a bit astonished by her accusation i was glad it didn't show but i now understood how she knew about the broken brotherhood...
The woman in question didn't answer chase as she smiled calmly even the other people in this room seemed to be very astonished looking at me a bit skeptical but astonished at the same time ashe was also looking at me with a surprised gaze,hestia who was sitting to my left in the mean time just looked around the table confused and the little girl was still eating her pasta not having any care about what just happened,she as well may have not listened at all as the sound of hear eating the pasta was the only sound in the room full of silence.
-Morgana even if its true do you think you have the authority to be asking something like this ?
Chase retorted in disdain while looking at her older sister who was still smiling.
-And do you think you have the authority to refuse me ?Isn't the person in question allowed to call who is authorized and who is not ?
Both of the woman looked at me at the same time both of their expression were very different one calm and the other hard but both of their gazes told me the exact same thing....who am i going to choose...it felt like i was having an affair with someone and just got found out hestia who was snickering next to me didn't help me at all.
I sighed and opened my jacket pulling out the badge of the broken brotherhood placing it next to my plate.Everyone other than the little girl looked at the badge that i had placed on the table with now very amazed expression i wasn't really getting the whole astonishment they were giving me for just showing the badge but i needed to act my part and just continued to eat my soup in silence.
-What do you do for a living master james ?
Ashe asked cheerfully she was actually not that much affected by the heavy air around us and on the other hand was very curious about me.
-I kill people i guess ?
I said with a shrug as i ate my soup.
