World Customize Creator Chapter 54

“This is easy to move in, and is surprisingly warm too.”

“You should wear a hair ornament to go with it, I believe that you would look more attractive you know?”

The two sisters, Razs.h.i.+a and Rasanasha, had just returned from shopping. They were currently chatting while trying on a combination of different small ornaments and organising their loot.

Regardless of the mission, Razs.h.i.+a had no experience in choosing fas.h.i.+onable clothes for herself, thus buying items from the stalls along the main streets proved to be an enjoyable act. But abruptly, a feeling of anxiety began falling over the enjoyable mood.

“Is something wrong?”
“....yeah, kind of.”

She was thinking about the events that will unfold when she reaches Sanc Adiet, as there will be problems for her, such as trying to persuade someone of important standing to take her under his wing, and there is also the presence of the Earl who is the boss of Rasanasha in Fonclanc, thus no deception should be made.

Aside from the Nossentes sympathizers within the palace officials, there were only a few n.o.bles who Razs.h.i.+a could persuade. Talking about persuading, it won’t be as sweet as the time around with Yuusuke, and there might be a chance where lies and deception are involved.

“Uuu....hick,hick”(Crying?)

“Haa What should I~I do…”

“This is troubling oo, no matter how powerful the man is in Fonclanc’s palace, no one can win against alcohol intoxication.”

“Wai~Wait a moment I don’t really remember it! To go against a country is~~”

Negotiating privately with palace officials(Nossentes symathizers) by using medicines to induce intoxication, and after that pretend to be a subordinate that was a.s.saulted by the drunk official while gathering his weaknesses.

Forcing victims to cooperate is what they excel at. Using this same method, in which they have experience in, they will force Nossentes into cooperation. But if Razs.h.i.+a completes her mission, Rasanasha, who is known as her sister, will not come out of this unscathed.

“I think so….”

If Nossentes were to remain in ruins, I don’t believe the Earl will continue to harbour me, in the worst case scenario he would a.s.sa.s.sinate me to cover his tracks.

“Since we have come this far, it’s too late to turn back.”

“I see….so we should remain out of sight for as long as possible, it would be better for us to hide somewhere in the city for the time being.”

The moment they were to enter Sanc Adiet, she would first stay at Rasanasha’s house for the time being, a life of being unseen by the general public, and if she is spotted, they could secretly s.h.i.+ft their residence to the outskirts of the city, and the chance of a palace official spotting them will also be reduced.

That evening, the two of them met up for a discussion about the main topic of Razs.h.i.+a’s place, if they were to be frank and to rely on Yuusuke entirely, in order words to get Princess Violet’s amnesty,  it might be quite the task.

“Well, even though many people like Yuusuke, it’s probably impossible until that point.”

“Is...that so?”

“Because he’s the hero of Fonclanc don’t you know?”

It’s not good to expect sympathy from a military personnel, Razs.h.i.+a’s basis to chide any excessive expectation of the Darkness G.o.d Captain who is a hero was because of the elder like good people subordinates.

While the Darkness G.o.d Corps and the amba.s.sadors were spending their time in the port city within the detention facilities of Sanc Adiet, Rasanasha’s boss, the Earl, was visiting an important interrogation that was on-going as an excuse.

“Ho, to take Patrucia Nost so easily.”

“There is still more than half of the Divine parliament’s troops moving around, so there should be some form of contact coming here.”

No longer having the backing of Nossentes, the Earl started an early interrogation of Volmes in an attempt to prevent him from spilling out everything. His intention was to gain insight of Volmes, as he will be in trouble with Nossentes ruined. Thus he had to imply to him(Volmes) to skillfully evade and buy time.

“The Remnants of Izapnar’s faction of Gazzetta or Blue Garden, or even if there might be a 3rd force hiding in the shadows. For the time being, it’s all up in the air.”

“Hmm, I see. So the Divine Parliament will make a provisional government while being exiled in Fonclanc for the meantime, while bluffing that their main forces are somewhere else”

The Earl nodded to Volmes foresight, as he conveyed a message to the other spies to gather at this detention facility.

“Now then…..kun, will you call on the interrogation officer?”

“......What?”

After affirming the Earl’s response, Volmes, requested to be transferred to interrogation room after the monitoring soldier came along to the front desk. Puzzled and thinking that Volmes might want to confess an important testimony, he went to call the interrogation officer over.

After some time, an interrogation officer and several soldiers had arrived at the interrogation room, there Volmes began to talk.

“The one who sent out an indication of a raid was the Divine Parliament of Nossentes.”

Volmes who was notified about the Fall of Patrucia Nost began exposing the mastermind behind the artless village raid incident which were the orders by Nossentes’s Divine Parliament. Fallen from grace from Blue garden, he found himself accepting a condition to be incorporated into the Special unit without any complaints.

Taking the command of the execution squad, and only limited to the moving the troops, the one holding actual commanding authority was the deputy who had died in battle in the port city, and he also explained that those who were in his former Blue Garden elite teams were also being monitored.

The fact that the deputy of the unit was responsible for the inspection, and since the subordinates of the original elite team were dead, there was no way for the secret of the imposter to leak out. Volmes believed it to be so.  

“So in other words, you are saying that your actions were actually orders forced by the Divine Parliament?”

“....I see. You have to apologize to the people of Fonclanc for the great deal of trouble you have brought to them.”

Volmes recognized the figure of Hivodir who came entering into the interrogation room with questions from the overview of the testimony. Volmes was aiming to improve his impression by showing a laudable att.i.tude in order to gain credit and his freedom by presenting a sacrifice.

“Why, did you suddenly make these testimonies?” he severs the card which he had held onto, the answers to their questions.

“Earlier, the Earl that came to my interrogation was a person who had connections with the divine parliament.” (TL notes: WHAO Backstab)

After affirming several Nossentes’s spies, and saying that the residence he lived in is also being spied on. Knowing about the conspiracies and secret maneuvering of the Divine Parliament, he believed his life was being targeted and that his time was limited, so he confessed about everything he knew.

“He might be uneasy due to the fall of Patrucia Nost.”

The Earl had came to warn Volmes that the Divine Parliament still exists and is going strong, and implied that he  “Not say anything,” reminding him of the consequences of being a spy of Nossentes.

“I have judged that it was a good opportunity to expose the truth to the light of day.”

“I see, a logical decision.”

Seeing Hivodir’s nodding reaction, Volmes was gloating inside. But that was short lived.  “However~~” Hivodir continued his words, and invited the people who were waiting outside the interrogation room by opening the door. Volmes expression immediately shrank.

“These 2 people, are from the crew who had attacked my house and everything in that village.”

“......”

The 2 men were young. One of them was missing a part of his arm from the elbow up, while the other from the waist down had his back bent in a strange way. All the subordinates were supposed to have been buried by the Artless warrior and the Darkness G.o.d Crops.

(TL notes: Ouchie, this is some dark s.h.i.+t)

“Ah you guys are still alive! There was news that you were all dead.”

“.....”

Volmes performed a wink to his 2 former subordinates of the Fire Troupe, as a signal to cooperate with him.

During that night, there were eyes monitoring the 3 people who were out in pursuit of Hivodir, they were in a situation where the life and death of the entire team laid on them.

“That’s what he said, you guys aren’t mistaken about it right?”

“.....no”

“What the team leader had said….leave everything to us.”

The two former subordinates did not comply with the wink that Volmes had sent them. In fact, the 2 of them had already heard about some of the events which occurred at the port city and the current Patrucia Nost.

“These 2 people had admitted that they were persuaded by you to escape Blue Garden and defect to Nossentes.”

“No, that is…..”

“Not only that, it seems that in order to save yourself, you sacrificed all of your subordinates as a decoy in the port city~~”

After withdrawing from the port city, the remains of the victims of the fighting were being transported on the carriage, these bodies of the armed groups were being transported to the nearby forest and buried with the help of the residents of the city.

Most of the corpses of the armed group were burned down alongside the inn, except for 2 unnatural corpses that were discovered at the back of a house near the inn.

An underground secret tunnel was found beneath the inn to a nearby house, and to surmise, these two probably tried to escape using the tunnel. However, being in the middle of a fight, there was not one soldier who saw them.

One guy’s head was cut clean off, the other had a burnt hole in his chest. From the evidence found, the chest seems to be pierced by a sword using a strengthening flame art.

“The equipment that Fonclanc soldiers uses are spears, but you have been using a sword.”

“....”

Hivodir brought the 2 bodies back to the 2 original fire troupe members who survived the onslaught of s.h.i.+nha and they had confirmed that they were colleagues of theirs.

The situation was explained to them when Volmes was caught, and they had apparently covered up the news of the dead body whom were their colleagues that died in the hands of Volmes, these 2 surviving members of the fire troupe had confessed that they escaped from Blue Garden.

They even spilled out that Volmes was the captain of Nossentes special corps and had always been acting in line with Nossentes and he had been dealing behind their backs without them knowing. As they testified about it.

“Furthermore, just a few days ago, such things had arrived in the palace.”

“....still there should be something.”

Hivodir took out a slip from his coat, and listed on it was a letter mark from Gazzetta.

The news of the fall of Patrucia Nost was received the next day, all of the Divine parliament’s messenger birds were sent out to deliver the Gazzetta King’s letter, within the letter was the Divine Parliament’s plan and the spies that had infiltrated, and also all of the n.o.bles who were connected were being marked.

Within the letter Volmes’ troops establishment was amongst one of it’s contents, and it also stated that the one that initiated the village raiding plans to start the conflict between Gazzetta and Fonclanc was Volmes.

The chances that he had created with his hands, the attempts that Volmes had tried to gain a foothold from were all completely exhausted.

“Now the, all value of the informations about Nossentes you had are useless….so what do you have to say now?”

“.....”

“....”

Volmes was silent as he pulled back a short breath.

Part 2

Five days had pa.s.sed after the fall of the Patrucia Nost. The carriage that was supposed to greet the Darkness G.o.d Corps’ party would not arrive for another few days. Therefore the party was currently relaxing at the port town.

“Oh, you are out shopping?”

“Yeah, i’m in charge of the dinner today. I’ll be cooking fish.”

“You seem to be happy”

Razs.h.i.+a seemed to be tense, but the peaceful atmosphere around the party had started to get to her and she was being much more natural in her acting. She had even gotten friendly with the members of Yuusuke’s corps. However the girl herself had not remembered the last time she felt truly at peace (satisfied)

“Bees”

“Eh?”

That day, Razs.h.i.+a had headed out to shop alone, when her codename was unexpectedly called from behind. Standing in front of the alley was a little girl, giving off an adorable smile while staring at her. The girl was singing a song like those of a fairytale.

“Flowers to flowers, let’s go look for sweet honey~”

“....in that body, there is concealed poison.”

“Fufufu as I thought you were the bee right?”

“You are….from the special unit?”

The little girl who identified herself as Eru(Elfiona) invited Razs.h.i.+a into an alley while handing her a small wrapped package. Razs.h.i.+a immediately knew that there were poisonous drugs within the package that was handed to her.

Following after the childlike movement of Eru(Elfiona), they advanced into the alley. After a short while they arrived at a place from where they could not hear the noises of the busy street anymore. There, a cold male voice, belonging to a member of Nossentes special ops, called out the name [Honeybee] and began giving her her orders. (Shortened second part, cut out Nossentes secret ops temptress)

“Orders from the divine parliament.”

“Tsu!”

~~Neutralize the Darkness G.o.d Corps and Fonclanc Amba.s.sadors, a.s.sist the work force in their raid.~~

“What do you see?”

“The person herself seems to wanna run away.”

After seeing Razs.h.i.+a’s figure disappear in the bustling crowd, the captain of the unit came out and to obtain the opinion of his subordinate. Noticing her reaction as the order was given, her feeling towards the extension of the mission and the actions that would be made towards the darkness G.o.d corps. If her feelings were to set it, it would prove to be troublesome.

“Do you think she will betray us?”

“That woman maybe, she had the same special training as Eru(Elfiona), so there shouldn’t be a betrayal.”

As the subordinate answered, the adorable smiling elementary girl who was standing beside him turned and looked towards a different direction. The newly established by Nossentes intelligence buery, the research training “Child a.s.sa.s.sination Squad”. This time Eru(Elfiona) was a.s.signed to the special ops as a prototype child a.s.sa.s.sin.

The innocent smile, the lovely gestures, everything which is included for a loli, the absolute obedience to the orders from a commander and faithfully doing any given task. An aim emotional training was carried out, thus when they are on standby they are quiet like dolls. They were taught to not do autonomous actions.

Seeing a emotional development on the growing Razs.h.i.+a, the spell of obedience that was implanted and wedged deep in her heart would prevent her from escaping. After listening to the opinion of the subordinate, the captain of the unit nodded in consent.

Razs.h.i.+a had returned to the inn after shopping, she confessed to Rasanasha about the order to attack the Darkness G.o.d Corps.

“Chi ah~ah, like I thought it’s impossible to get a normal life at this point!”

“s.h.i.+a….”

“Have you made up mind on your resolution?”

Tonight, she will not be able to go out for a stroll and would have to come up with her decision after dinner, as Rasanasha persuaded her to rethink about it. Even if the divine parliament is alive and well, Nossentes is currently under Gazzetta occupation and they themselves are traveling towards Fonclanc.

So long as there is a reason to be loyal to their country, their beliefs can be respected. However, the fact Razs.h.i.+a is going to follow the orders were pointed out as anxiety rather than loyalty by Rasanasha.　

Like a p.r.i.c.kling stabbed with a needle, Razs.h.i.+a frowned and looked away as she turned in silence.

“Ne, please s.h.i.+a. Give it a second thought, let’s talk to Yuusuke-same about it?”

“.....I’m sorry, Rasa.”

“! ng…..tsu”

Razs.h.i.+a turned and looked back, behind her was a translucent yellow object that she had prepared, a jelly type honey looking sweet that she placed in her mouth, she immediately stole Rasanasha’s lips and pushes the sweet down her throat with her tongue. And at that rate she pushed her and held her down onto the bed.

Rasanasha who understood the meaning of her actions, she tried to swing and twist her body in order to get out and inform Yuusuke and his party about it, but Razs.h.i.+a had received training to constrict someone, thus Rasanasha couldn’t break free.

Eventually, Rasanasha fell into a deep slumber as the anesthetic that was in the honey took control.

“ I’m really sorry….”

Razs.h.i.+a murmured softly while gently stroking Rasanasha’s cheek, she took the package she had gotten from Eru(Elfiona) and concealed it in her bosom as she left the room.

“Ooo~looks delicious.”

“It doesn’t looks delicious, it is delicious.”

“Hahaha I wonder if I can take portion of it.”

Like usual everyone gathered for dinner, their eating and chattering created the lively atmosphere. She gave the explanation that Rasanasha is resting early due to her sickness, as it is known that she was suffering from a disease, and everyone was convinced easily, though they were worried about her.

“Well then, I will go nurse my sister.”

“Okay, if anything happens, call out to us.”

“s.h.i.+a’s cuisines was delicious.”

“Ne~Next time…..please teach me about the amount of seasonings.”

After returning to her room, Razs.h.i.+a was prepared to go out as she looked at Rasansha who was sleeping on the bed. A slow acting sleeping drug was mixed into the cuisine and everything was eaten without leaving anything behind. Looking at the food made by her, which was on the table that had been cleaned out, made her felt happy during this mission.

However, this time the swirling in Razs.h.i.+a’s heart wasn’t because of the joy of being praised from the cooking done by her, neither was it because of the sense of achievement due to a successful mission, but because of the fear and impatience that she had felt which could not be put into words.

“......the report, I have to go….”

Razs.h.i.+a being lost about where to go, she exited to the streets from the back door of the inn as she walked down the alley of the port city bathed in the night sky.
