Chapter 61: Informed (2)
(At the same time.)
" So, why did you bring us here, Duncan? " Hector asks as Duncan looks around for a minute, hoping there are no 'possessed' people who might hear the words he will say afterward.
" The coast is clear. " Duncan says after trying to sense and scan the area using his Mana Sense.
As he says that, he looks at Hector and says, " *Sir Hector, we need to talk... "
" ... and I suggest you use The [Magic Dragon Eye] for now... " Duncan adds.
" Why? why should I use my magic eye for this 'conversation' you ask all of us to have? " Hector said it almost out loud and Duncan immediately tried to silence him as he tells him immediately what happened in the academy.
" Sir Hector, you need to lower your voice and start using the 'eye', for I want this information I give to be listened to by you and the people here safely without being leaked outside. " Duncan says as he looks around again while Hector immediately uses his eyes.
[ Magic Dragon Eye: Vision Ray ]
" Hmmm.... no one suspicious in particular... " Hector says while looking at his children both Alicia and Fernando to use the Dragon's Eye.
" Both of you, I don't want to be the only one on using this eye! " Hector says to them.
" Should we have to father? " Alicia asks.
Hector then looks at Duncan which Duncan responds by nodding which gives Hector an immediate answer as he looks back at her.
" You see what he responds? do it, both of you! " Hector says as the two children of his and the siblings of Irina Richter immediately use their Magic Dragon Eyes to increase their awareness of their surroundings.
" So, now that we had used our magic eyes,... "
" What information do you want to give us with this great amount of caution you ask us, Duncan? " Hector asks.
" I'm sorry for the request, but this information must be only given to you all regarding our late arrival at this Hospital. "
" For in the academy, Donovan seems had trouble with some students members of the Nyx Nocterra House. " Duncan explains which immediately shocks Hector and the others.
" The Nyx Nocterra House you say? " Hector stares at Duncan.
" What happened? " Hector adds his question for he knew that this would likely be great trouble which Duncan explains it all, all of it.
" Donovan killed the Nyx Nocterra House members! in public!? " Fernando asks.
" Yes, but it seems the Nyx Nocterras is the one who started first, so the odds are on our side. "
" Good!!! does that mean the Nyx Nocterra won't charge us with anything anymore? " Hector asks as he recounts Donovan defeating Draco Nyx Nocterra who uses the Dragon Core, a forbidden object to be brought by students of magic in every academy.
" After all, the fault is on them!!! "
" Yes sir Hector, we had no problem on that part. "
" Even the Nyx Nocterra house had released any desire on making charges upon Donovan since they willingly pay their faults on this matter. " Duncan replies to Hector which raises more questions.
" Well then, so what is need to be informed for if we had the victory in this problem!? " Hector asks Duncan.
" My apologies, sir Hector, despite our small triumph in this matter, there is a... " Duncan looks around to make sure no one will hear what he says.
" Just say the word to us, Duncan!!! " Hector says as he tells Duncan to speak for the scouting for any suspicious people is theirs to do.
" *Deep breathes*....., sir Hector, .... "
" The reason why the Nyx Nocterra retreats their charges upon Donovan is because... "
" Because? " Hector stares.
" Is because of 'that person's interference on this matter. " Duncan answers the questions which briefly make them confused.
" 'That person'? who? " Hector and the other ask, Duncan explains that the person he meant was the most dangerous member known from the Nyx Nocterra family which immediately shocks them as they quickly understand who is Duncan referring to.
" 'That person' from the Nyx Nocterra House is there!!!? " they all shouted as they all rubbed their chin, especially Hector who knows the person Duncan is talking about for he also had troubles with him in their previous encounters.
" *Drecksau!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *Verdammt!!!!!!!!! " Hector says a German slang that he knows for he curses the person they referring to for he also shares bad memories when meeting him.
" That accursed *D?mon from the Nyx Nocterra again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! " Hector shouts while adding some German-based language and Fernando immediately holds him.
" Shh father be quiet, please!!! " Fernando says while looking around.
" 'He' could be anywhere... " Fernando says for he also knows well of the person they talk about.
" You be quiet, Fernando!!! " Hector replies in his anger.
" That Verdammt, Drecksau D?mon...., her dares lay hand upon my Grandson!!! " Hector says which makes the whole family go silent for he leaks his Mana Aura in his emotional state.
As Hector gets emotional, he then recounts everything that he should've done after meeting with 'that person' back then, for he regrets did not kill him in his most vulnerable condition back then which resulted in him surviving and can do every malice he could do back then and making more malicious deeds in the future to the Royal Houses and into Elysium Haven.
" That Verdammt is darkness incarnate... "
" Not even the most legendary monsters in the Dungeon or those monsters who came from the Gates could even withstand the extent of his evil. " Hector says for he tries to calm his rage as he realizes that many began to be attracted by his mana.
As he calms down, he begins to silently think about the future, especially about Donovan who he sees in Irina's room looking happily holding his sister.
" Look at him... " Hector suddenly says as the others begin to look at where he sees as some of them who had the magic eyes see what Hector sees. For they see Hector looking at Donovan which made them understand since, after a long time after Donovan joins the House, Hector and Donovan become more close as Donovan always makes Hector proud in any way.
As Hector and the others look at the happy Donovan, Duncan on the other hand, felt uneasy as his worries begin to increase now, in his happy life, he needs to deal with some problematic people from the past that could haunt his family's future.
"( I will not let him, have his way... )" Duncan says as he swears to himself as he would always protect his wife and children from danger especially 'that person'.
...
( Meanwhile. )
" Ah what a happy family... " said a person who looks at the sight of Duncan's family in the Royal Hospital by using the body he possess's eyes as his medium.
" Is it nice? the Richter House, known to be the most strict Royal House now had a soft spot after bringing the adopted Child from the Dungeon," he says while laughing.
" Oh, how the Royal Houses have deteriorated... "
" If the Richters now had also abandoned the path of maintaining purity, then it means they are also had set their path to fall," he says while laughing as he drinks the Black Wine he prepared.
" This Black Wine is mesmerizing... "
" Am I right, O Great Dragon of Wine? " he says to the dragon corpse he currently sits behind him, it can be seen he had slain many Dragon monsters inside the Dungeon he's currently in while laughing as he drinks his wine he poured from the Dragon's very blood.
