"....." The leader of the group walked forward and looked around with sharp eyes, while everyone in the restaurant became silent looking at them at the same time...
"Hello, Mr. Alex, how could I help you?" The waiter here walked forward and looked at the group leader and asked with a mild tone...
"What can you help? Bring us something to eat!!!" The man beside the leader saw the waiter asking and answered in a loud tone...
While the rest of the group looked around quite annoyedly as if they wanted to start trouble anytime...
Yup... It's that... A few trouble makers that exist everywhere...
"Well..." Apparently, the waiter was quite familiar with these people and only nodded his head then walked back to the kitchen...
With this, the group also didn't look at the others around anymore and walked to the empty big table that happened to be beside Gray's group...
But they were so many... and the table wasn't big enough for all of them...
"...." So the rude one who screamed at the waiter before looked at Gray and his party while showing a nasty smile on his face, especially when he looked at Gray...
Quite obvious... This guy's mind wasn't so clean...
So he walked forward and came to where Legolas was sitting... Apparently identifying Legolas as the leader of the group...
It's just...
Before he could even speak to them a pressure suddenly locked him from everywhere made him stop in his place, and a panicked look appeared in his eyes...
While the others including their captain also looked at Gray and the others and showed a surprised look...
Everyone at Gray's party looked quite different and unique...
Their charm and aura were so bright to be hidden...
So it was quite natural to attract attention... Not only them, but almost all those who were inside the restaurant right now also had the same reaction and kept peaking at them from time to time...
However... Making trouble?
Well... If someone was brave enough to ignore the leaking presence around them and managed to get closer, maybe someone will do such a stupid thing as making trouble with them...
The rude one who walked back with fear was an example...
After all... Gray, Legolas, Mary, and even Perona were owners of Conqueror Haki!
Even if they didn't use it, but the leaking presence around them was quite clear for everyone here...
This aura won't allow some cat or dog to come and make trouble with them...
An aura that simply warned them not to get closer...
Gray knew that something like this might happen here or there, so they leaked this presence purposely to avoid troubles... And it was quite effective...
But the captain's reaction wasn't like his men's reaction and didn't show much more than surprise, then nodded his head at Legolas who was also looking at him calmly waiting to see what will they do and told his followers not to make trouble and sat down waiting for their meal...
"Haaa... And I thought something funny will happen..." Mary looked at the group of people who kept silent and sat down without doing anything and said boringly...
These guys entered tigers but the moment they saw them, actually became scared cats? So boring...
"No, they just got the answer they came here for... After all... They are here for us..." But Perona who was playing with an invisible sphere on her hand looked at Mary and said...
"Ah?" Legolas and Mary looked at Perona doubtfully...
They also observed them but these guys became fearful as soon as they felt their aura, so they didn't think like this...
"Look at this..." Perona saw them looking at her with doubt and raised her hand that was holding an invisible sphere...
Inside the sphere, a little funny ghost slowly showed itself carrying a weird blue line inside its belly...
"This line is a part of memories this ghost stole... The memories of their captain... He's here to make trouble with us... From the moment we entered the empire... we have been found by the security department of this empire... And this man was just a small worker who came here to observe us a little closer and to test us... But looks like, he already got the answer he wants" Perona touched the belly of the white ghost in her hand playing with the blue line inside it, and said...
"Ah? you can also do this ?" Mary heard what Perona said and asked with surprise...
"Or how do you think Gray got all this information so fast?" Perona heard Mary's question and showed a proud expression...
This girl... Really loves to show off...
Perona's action was quite simple.. making a simple attributeless ghost and cast vanishing spell on it, with another Legilimency magic that will allow her ghost to delve into the mind of her victims, and like this, all the memories she wishes to take will be taken by this ghost as a line of memories carried inside its stomach...
Because of the special nature of her magic and ability, Perona doesn't need a Pensieve; the magical device that used to review memories... But simply to pick up the ghost back to her hand she will see these memories as she wishes for...
"No wonder the waiter showed respect to them..." Legolas heard this and nodded his head calmly... He heard the mild tone the waiter spoke in...
"So we have been found... And someone is already observing us" Gray heard Perona's words and nodded his head calmly, not so surprised about this...
Honestly, after knowing the level of power here, he already expected this...
"Haaaa... That's an interesting ghost..." Niala looked at the ghost in Perona's hand and showed a playful smile...
"Yes, it's really impressive!... But is it really that interesting for you? After all... This ghost didn't work with everyone..." Gray looked at Niala who finished her happy meal and asked with fishy eyes...
As if asking her, *it didn't work in you... why?*
"Security department... I wonder how did they do this..." Mary after hearing what Perona said, didn't care about the fact that the group beside them came for them but wondered how did they found them so fast...
"Not only us... almost every corner of this empire is under weird kind of surveillance... But how... I'm not sure... This guy is not a high-ranked person to know the details..." Perona stopped playing with her ghost and took her drink thinking of what she knows...
For a big place like this empire, naturally, there should be a way to protect the others here... Not only from zombies... But from humans themselves...
After all... humans can be scarier, especially in an apocalypse that has no rules...
Living beings... As long as they have intelligence, they will have their own desires which were usually called sins ...
If there was no strength to control and lead these people... this empire wouldn't have been called *Heaven*...
And Gray understood all this, so that was another reason why he expected himself to be found...
"Well... It's probably some kind of awakener work..." Gray said...
"So what now?" Legolas looked at Gray and asked...
"Nothing changed... Let's find Baccarat and Tauriel first..." But Gray simply shook his shoulders and said...
"We came here only for this, and since the empire found us, there should have been two reactions... Either directly came to arrest us, since we are intruders... Or ignore us like all other survivals here, as long as we don't make any troubles that are threatening the base order and safety... So most likely they only want to confirm our identities or power only..." Gray looked at them and explained his thoughts...
Gray didn't understand the situation of the empire completely, so he wasn't so sure about things... But no matter what... They are not zombies... So the one who controls things probably only wanted to see how did they enter the base, and about their abilities...
And even if not, things won't be bad in the end, after all, survival bases were made to gather survivals not to fight each other...
That's why Gray decided not to really do anything, but to continue his search...
Gray couldn't help but glance at the leader who was eating his meal silently...
For Gray and the others chat, no one here was able to hear it clearly, but more like a buzzing sound in their ears...
A simple sound spell he used around them...
So all that they said weren't heard by anyone, even if anyone tried to, they simply can't hear what they say...
"Well..." Hearing what Gray said, the others also nodded their head agreeing to what Gray said...
Yup... Tauriel and Baccarat first... After this, if something wrong happens after, it won't really matter by then...
So it didn't take long, and Gray with everyone stood up and left after paying a small piece of awakening crystal for food and left...
Yup... This heartless heaven actually uses crystals as currency here...
.....
"Captain... They left... should we follow..." As Gray and his party left, the rude man from before looked at his captain and said...
"Follow? Do you want to die? Go... I won't stop you..." But the captain couldn't help but look at this man's face with a bad look...
After that, he looked at another two men beside him and asked them about the results...
"Go back to your spots... Not allowed to make trouble here or there and I'll go report now..." After exchanging some words with everyone, the captain gave his orders and left ready to report what he saw here...
Though they haven't really tested Gray's group... However, the C.P results he got were enough to give him a cold back...
As Perona said before.. He really came here to make trouble so he could test Gray and the others closely...
But after seeing everyone's C.P results... He hardly controlled himself not to run away!
But what can he do... He had to do his job, so he still sat down and observed Gray and the others a little closer...
Though he didn't get any results...
There were many possibilities... Like Mary's wings., or their ears... probably a race awakeners, plus the weird pressure...
So he stood up and directly left in hurry to give the report...
