Chapter 442: Guess who's back~? (2)
The violet orb complained, feeling some of his pent-up stress getting released – honestly, having someone who he could trust to that degree was ridiculously reassuring and almost cleansing.
|Aww, my cute rotten brain feels overwhelmed? Come, let's snuggle up. Now that I'm back I'll make it all bette~ ...HA?!?!?!??!??!!|
Patience giggled and did very well to tease the violet orb, but Zombie was on a completely different level than the inexperienced sealed overseer, and actually floated towards the white orb and nuzzled against her, causing her to fidget adorably in embarrassment – well, as adorably as an orb could fidget that is.
|Oh, and I made sure that the story will follow the path where the Envy family is the disgraced one, and got the remnant of the spirit god, Saint, as my subject too while I was at it – his name is George.|
Zombie casually continued his explanation while Patience was struggling to stay calm and not spontaneously combust from embarrassment.
|Y-you did...? G-good...|
The white orb squirmed and twisted around – but did not make any attempt to move back despite all the opportunities in the world.
|That means that the elves are free – I hope that you made sure that Lairs's mother will not be harmed – despite her fruit name, she is the character that starts the -cursed daughter- quest, which is the...|
|Which is one of the secret quests that we need to complete in order to get the secret ending that we want. I know.|
It sounded as if Patience was getting overly worried so Zombie cut into her sentence and finished it for her.
|I triggered it, but it did not activate because the global event didn't start – it gave me quite a scare though. And took some precautions so that none of the somewhat important characters from the Envy territory would be in danger. Your memories that mixed with Kopia were really helpful, though the way that Kopia is, it took her a while to even tell me about it. Still, Salak, Rambutan, Fillia, Mason, and even Raika, should be as fine as momentarily possible.|
The violet orb explained.
|Good, good.|
Patience nodded proudly.
|And the rest?|
She added curiously.
|Well, I didn't even show up to Laura because I doubt that she would take what happened to me too well... for now, that is... and as for Mia and Luke, they are both doing their thing – since they don't have a connection to the Envy family, at least not one I was aware of, they should be fine... right...?|
Zombie asked rotating diagonally, which was supposed to imitate him tilting his head.
|Oh, those three will be completely fine on their own.|
The white orb assured him, somehow managing to sound as if she waved her hand dismissively – despite not having any arms in her current form.
|But then what about Xavi? I can't imagine that she would have an easy time – Envys wanted to kill her for a while not to mention that the queen would love to deal with that loose end too.|
|...huh...?|
...but then she went ahead and said something extremely confusing, that sent chills down Zombie's spine – or it would if he wasn't in the form of a violet orb.
|...I... I didn't encounter a character named Xavi, though...|
Zombie slowly floated back, staring at the white orb.
|Ha...? No, you definitely did... wait... Could it be too late?! No... impossible...|
The white orb flinched and bounced anxiously from left to right.
|If you made a deal with the queen, she must have at least mentioned Xavi...!|
She insisted, rotating around her own axis, very much disturbed.
|Focus, Zombie. Xavi. We've met her already in this playthrough. Middle-aged, dark-haired woman. She's a guild master of the adventurers guild that you enlisted to. Everyone calls her Banana because of the big birthmark on her neck...|
|BANANA IS AN IMPORTANT CHARACTER?!|
The white orb started explaining hurriedly, ending up the most important part at the very end – a part that made the violet orb jump up and shout in terror.
|Yes – very important actually – Xavi is a character that will give out lots of quests after she will move into the rebuilt village. She doesn't just give some lousy quests either – because of her lifestyle, she made quite a lot of connection and therefore points the player to the secret quest for both Roan and Corvus, and after clearing enough quests given by Raika, she would also give you the secret quest for Claymore.|
Patience revealed the important information without a speck of her usual secrecy, which was both helpful and surprising – the only problem was her timing...
|Why in the world wouldn't you tell me that the first time we met her?! You should have at least mention – hey, see that woman? BANANA IS ONLY A NICKNAME, HER NAME IS XAVI!|
Zombie couldn't stop himself and blew out in anger.
|...you killed her, didn't you...|
The white orb slumped down and sighed.
|...ah...!|
She wasn't angry at all – it almost sounded as if she was disappointed with herself, an odd reaction, but still, that kind of behavior was exactly what snapped Zombie back from the angry fit.
|I did not, actually - believe it or not...|
He cleared out.
|...but the thing is... I kind of went against the deal with the queen – you see, she wanted to have something on the Envy family to keep them in check, something only she and I would know, but because of me freeing the Elves, the reputation of the main family is completely shattered, publicly.|
He started explaining.
|....and...?|
The white orb floated up, expectantly.
|...and I made it so it would look like that ended up happening because of the false information that Banana, that is Xavi, gave me... So that she would get punished instead of me... I suppose that Pitaya had already captured her...|
Zombie revealed feeling ashamed.
|...|
The white orb went silent.
|Pati...?|
Zombie furrowed his brow – or tried to do that – and asked.
|You need to wake up so that we could salvage this mess. Right now.|
The white orb declared sounding surprisingly calm and composed and...
…
The blue undead opened his eyes, back in the real world.
