Ch215: Innocent Joke

SOLAR RAIL ROUTE TO COURT DISTRICT 101, CENTRAL DISTRICT, HEAVEN

The former hunter had managed to get on the Solar Rail together with her guest, but despite the time spent, they could not find the person who had invited them to come in the first place. Both girls had spent almost the entire trip walking from car to car looking for him, until after their long search they finally found him in one of the cabins looking at the window. Urakaze knocked on the window to let him know of their presence and opened the door, he did just that and invited them in. The hunter stopped for a moment to think about how to move the wheelchair to a comfortable place, but managed to do it without much effort, after both girls were settled the man spoke to them.

"Urakaze, when I told you that I needed search equipment and even a swimmer I was referring to the objects and the profession."

"Not a mermaid."

"Let me introduce her to you, she is Edra, one of the mermaids that were living near Cocos Island."

"Isn't that where Elise ended up killing a group of them?"

"That's right, Edra is one of them, she's Levia's friend."

"Despite the history that the group had, Edra has not been found guilty of any really serious charges so they have let her go in exchange for 5 years of community service or a bond, which is the same thing"

"Okay, I'm sorry to say this but what we are trying to do is not exactly community service."

"Please Mr. Rafael, let me work on this, I want to show you how useful I can be."

"Urakaze told me that you have a casino on the planet of Avesta 7, and if the ads are true it means that it is a tropical water planet."

"Right now I'm looking for a job near the sea, please, no more watering down city life and picking up trash from a wheelchair."

"I can do anything, musical numbers, acrobatic tricks or magic on water, diving tour guide."

"Anything but please near the sea!"

"Okay, all right, fine, you're in."

"But first I need you to do this job and then I will personally make sure to find you the ideal position in my hotel."

"Until then, what we're doing falls under the umbrella of, well, let's say covert operations."

"No way! It's about Nediadis right?"

"That's why we're going to the 101st Precinct Solar System."

"There's no other way, all 10 planets are full of witnesses, I saw the report last week."

"Yeah, something like that."

"She did something to my wife and I'm looking to get even a little something back."

"I'll give you the details later when we get to the safe house."

The trip continued for a couple of minutes more until they passed a landscape that completely broke the monotony of the trip among the stars of the Central District. A huge floating island was in the middle of nowhere, its size was enormous for such a huge sight even from so far away. Its ruins were seriously damaged, symbols of the brutal and heartbreaking war against the Dragons that took place within its walls, outside the plants all other living creatures on it had been forbidden under the orders of the emperor, only those with his explicit permission were allowed to even set foot on the floating island. Next to it four ships even bigger than the island were pointing all their cannons at it, fully loaded and ready to fire, at the slightest indication the huge super battleships of comabte would unleash hell on the ruins of the now extinct civilization. Edra could not stop staring at the view in the window, which made Raphael's heart a little heavy.

"Incredible, isn't it?"

"That's what happens when things go wrong."

"4 Super Space Battleships ready to fire red mercury charges at the slightest sign of trouble or attempt to get in there."

"Has it always been this guarded?" asked the siren.

"From what I hear since the end of the war the entire continent has been under complete quarantine."

"The spaceships are rotating with others, but at all times there are 4 of them pointing at the island."

"Hell, it's the first time I see the continent which is supposed to be my home and where I wasn't even born."

"I can't believe Father was really trying to steal that guarded place."

"We were really doomed from the start."

"...."

"Hasn't anyone really gone in there?"

"It's very guarded, but it's not like it's completely forbidden either."

"Well a while ago I myself went to drop off something that looked like a bottle with red liquid in it"

"Oh and also a crystal angel came to pick it up shortly after that."

"...."

"Come to think of it that was also the day my son took the island and took it to attack the planet of Nediadis"

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

"That place can attack even without anyone living on it?"

"How does that work?"

"I don't know exactly how it does it, but according to what some angels have told me, they say that the entire continent is able to function one hundred percent automatically, including its defense systems, as well as even its industrial production level."

"Basically, the island is capable of continuing to produce supplies for all of its weapons on a continuous basis."

"That is why Atlantis is a never-ending problem, whoever owns the continent has the industrial power and machinery of a superpower at their disposal for war."

"One word and the factories will be back to producing bombs, cannons to firing, or even the dragons themselves to flying."

"...."

"The good news is that Elise only cares about eating or sleeping on the couch all afternoon."

"So I don't think she will use the island without a good reason first."

"Like what Nediadis did? that was a good reason?"

"Nediadis was even lucky that he didn't see the island for a long time before her death"

"Do you think those 4 Super battleships are just for decoration?"

"Think about it, the ones that are there are not on a mission to destroy Atlantis."

"Their mission is to sacrifice themselves to buy time for the rapid response group to arrive on time, to buy more time for the nearest main assault fleet of the CSS to arrive."

"From what I hear the plan is to have a full combat force within 30 minutes maximum."

"The only reason Atlantis is so far inside the Central District is because the CSS shipyards are nearby and there is always a fleet in port."

The journey continued for a couple more hours until the huge space train finally arrived at its destination shortly after noon in the capital of the planet Lexarion, the sixth planet from the center star, one of several planets that were being used as a home by the millions of witnesses against the case against the horrible Goddess. The group took a cab to travel to one of the huge apartment complexes Megabuilding H10, on the 77th floor a corridor awaited them, Rafael took the leadership of the group and walked ahead until they reached one of the doors that led to the interior of a house, he knocked on the door twice, shortly after he could hear how the security mechanism opened to let them pass. On the other side a woman dressed as a maid was waiting for them, as she looked at them she lowered her head and humbly welcomed them.

"Welcome back Master, I hope you had a safe trip" said the girl nervously.

Lucy, how many times have I told you that you no longer work for Nediadis?

You are no longer a slave, you are working for a salary.

The correct way to greet a friend should be something more cheerful, something like "Hey how are you doing, why are you around here? Come on in, come on in".

"Sorry for my huge mistake Mr. Rafael, I didn't mean to upset you with my dishonorable mistake."

"Ah, leave it, we will continue working with your low self-esteem later."

"Tell me, have the others arrived yet?"

"They are in the dining room right now enjoying a cup of coffee."

"There's coffee? Excellent."

"Would it be cheeky of me to ask for a cup too?"

"I'm sure a woman as good-souled as you would find it perfect."

"Urakaze, Edra? You want coffee too?"

"I've never tasted human food before so I don't know if I'd like coffee."

"Give me a tiny cup to try first."

"Please, I'd like a cup of coffee, too."

"..."

"But that's not the point."

"What are those two doing there? Are they also part of the plan?"

"Exactly what the fuck are you planning to do?"

"Who them? Friends of mine of course"

"Since we are almost all here now let's go over the plan one more time so that Edra is up to date."

"....."

"A couple of days ago I managed to talk to Marco asking for help for our little "spicy prank"."

"He talked to another one of his friends who worked as a guard at the courthouse and he did us the favor of hiding a biological bomb, I mean the hot sauce Venus H-0-Terminus fireball in a secure locker in the evidence lockers."

"I also managed to get him a good seat with a view for White Death and he has already practiced enough with the air rifle to ensure a successful shot"

"...."

"Now there are two problems with this operation"

"The first is that the hot sauce is in the evidence room, a restricted access location, but if we manage to retrieve it from there there is no way the police can trace it back to us."

"At first I was thinking of contacting that gang of clowns that robbed banks, they specialized in things like this, but it turns out they are still alive."

"So we'll go for plan B"

"The locker where the package is located is close to a water access, so if we get to the right place and drill a hole in the wall we could retrieve it and deliver it to Simo Häyhä for his shot."

"...."

"Now regarding the second problem is that the CSS is aware of this and has several monsters roaming around the place to make sure that no one gets near the warehouse."

"That is why I have contacted you two, you two make sure to clear the path of enemies so that the demolitions team can make the hole in peace."

"The place is full of little Goblins, very annoying and intelligent bastards, and as if that wasn't enough, the big ones even look like demons out of hell."

"I have been told that you are good at it so I expect a good job according to you."

"Now regarding the siren, well this is because part of the tunnel is sealed off and the only way to open the gate is to travel through the sewer filled with water against the water flow for about 20 meters."

"As I have investigated there are also sensors that alert if something blocks the passage, so there is a very short window of time to achieve this."

"But with Edra here I think everything will go rather perfectly to plan."

"Once Mr. Häyhä has made the shot we can leave and everything will be fine."

"I have someone else in the room right now to take the shot and Nediadis' agonized reaction to it."

"..."

"Lastly, I don't want to pressure you but I already promised Lucy a copy of the video in exchange for lending us this place, so don't let me down please"

"The lady has already suffered a lot all her life, it's time to give her joy and be the one laughing."
