“You should control yourself a bit more,” the jumper moved towards and his eyes behind the mask were glaring in dangerous light.
“Keep your sticky nose out of my business,” I didn’t respond gently to his rude words.
“Humph,” he bypassed Leo and stood by my side, just inches away from my back.
“What are you doing?” I turned and gave him a questioning glance.
“I’m making sure that b*tch won’t dare to touch you again,” he said and I didn’t know why I felt so weird about his words.
He… why was he acting like this? Weird!
“Let’s… Talk about business then,” I said, especially when I saw a new face added to our group.
It was Mouven.
“You are finally here,” as I saw him, I instantly recalled his scattered forces here.
“Does lord want anything from ?” his face changed from surprise and amusent into shock and fear.
“Have you taken control over your forces here or what?” I asked, “I haven’t t any representatives from them yet.”
“They already signed the contracts,” he hurriedly said before adding, “and we all decided, I’m going to be the only representative for our cult.”
“It’s your force and not a cult,” I didn’t like the na he still kept using to describe his people, “you work for , not for your cult anymore.”
“I… I got it, lord,” it seed hard to accept the new situation, but with repetition things would beco easier in the future. I’d keep reminding him of this until the idea would be deeply engraved in his mind and soul.
“Can you stop this useless sh*t and tell us why you gathered us here?” The jumper was the only one daring to speak to in this way.
But I knew he was pissed off for unknown reasons. It seed Hilary and he had a friction, sothing even far more serious than the thing between her and Karoline.
The latter kept her silence, only standing without saying anything. “You gathered up here instead of releasing us around, isn’t it weird?” under my firm gaze, he had to give such a fake reason for his attitude.
“There are more important things to discuss than just running around like idiots,” I didn’t buy his useless reason, “now let’s talk about sothing, I need three forces out of you. One will stay here and defend, the second will go out and claim cities and regions around here.”
“What about the third?” Sara asked, while looking at Karoline from ti to ti.
“I’ll need them to do an extrely important task,” I said without exposing everything, “now who will go out and who will stay here to defend?”
“First tell what’s that mysterious mission of yours,” the jumper said but I looked up at Mouven, ignoring him for now.
“You’ll lead your forces and remain here for defence.”
“I’ll… do my best,” selecting him and assigning the first task directly ant one thing. I didn’t trust telling my plans in front of him.
After all, I just t him a couple of hours ago. He should behave well in defending my capital to gain more of my trust.
“Then go and start arranging your troops,” I waved my hand at him to leave.
“Ahem, what about the other forces here?” he didn’t leave as he asked about this.
“Aren’t they all students of MIT academy? They have sothing to do here, so leave them aside from this.”
“No, most of them belong to other universities,” he shook his head before adding, “most are from Harvard.”
“Oh,” I didn’t know that, “why didn’t I et up with any of them yet?”
“I believe you asked for only the cult and MIT representatives,” he seed at loss as to about this, “plus they were active mostly in Boston, their leaders I an.”
“Alright,” it was so kind of unintended error, “go and bring their leaders to then. I’ll decide after speaking with them.”
“Ok,” he descended and vanished from my sight. I turned to look at my team, with faces filled with questions.
“Do you rember this?” I took out one of my two dungeon keys. Both were now dark gold grade, and with that golden key the spearhead jumped as he pointed at it and shouted:
“Isn’t it the key I once had?”
“What? Do you want it back or sothing?” I looked up at him while Alex moved closer as she said in her usual shy tone:
“I recall seeing this… Isn’t it one of the two keys you upgraded that day?”
It was the day when we both t. Of course she wouldn’t forget about this, as the spearhead wouldn’t. On that day, I taught this arrogant dude a lesson and made him obedient.
“It opens a dungeon,” Hilary moved towards my side, but the jumper moved faster and stood in between and her.
“It’s sothing interesting indeed,” the jumper said.
“Do you even know what this is?” I rolled up my eyes while he nodded.
“I know dungeons, I once had a key but it was much lower in grade than this.”
“A silver grade key?” I asked and he paused before looking at Hilary, changing the topic:
“Stay a little back please.”
“Why?” she crossed her arms while her face carried an interesting look filled with challenge, “don’t you think you are acting weird? Tell , are you a guy lover or sothing?”
“I’m not,” the jumper solemnly responded and I had to step in and stop this nonsense from escalating into a bigger sh*t.
“Let’s stop this then,” I said, “this dungeon is our chance to turn tables over.”
“How?” the jumper and Hilary asked in the sa breath. Well, if others asked then it would be fine. But these two… Don’t tell they didn’t know about the real strength of dungeons!
“Co here,” I pointed at Karoline who was standing all silent and seed a little distracted. Since coming up here, she looked more pathetic to than ever.
Even if I had little fun with Hilary, Karoline was still my first girl.
