A few hours ago,
"Lex."
The man with a suit had called Lex. He was on the outside, facing the brown-colored door with a gold-colored holder in the middle of it.
He did not respond, and he called again.
"Lex."
In his room that shared a similar interior with Lira's bedroom, he fell asleep in him being sleeping on the floor.
He dreamed over something that made him look funny if someone had ever seen it.
He called him again, softly.
"Lex."
The time was still dawn, and Lex was still sleeping, he knows that he couldn't disturb him.
But, there is a matter he has to confirm as he got a report that Pharaoh was missing and managed to get found back by a countryman.
He placed his thumb finger on the keyhole of the door, and he enchanted a Metoria.
"Ice Metoria: Haze."
White-colored dust of ice had been emitted from his thumb finger as it freezes the door component with full of gear inside of it.
The freeze effect could make any components able to get destroyed easily, once it's freezing enough.
It took a few minutes to made the door mechanical component fully frozen solid with it, as it's finally frozen solid, he opened the door with ease.
He saw Lex, who was sleep, used another Metoria enchant.
"Ice Metoria: Ice Ball."
A small round looking ice, as big as his left hand had triggered from his left hand.
He moved to Lex, who sleeps in a weird position, and then.
He put the ice on his forehead.
"AAAAAAAAAAA!!! COLDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!"
That was his reaction as he put the ice on his forehead, a pretty quick reflex from him.
His father asked him, he said.
"Wake up, Lex. I want to ask you something."
Lex, who in a half-asleep state. Replied,
"Yes, father?"
He sat on his bed, and then he asked him about the slavery shop, he said.
"What did you and Lira discovered about it?"
Lex replied,
"It was a nasty slave shop. Demihumans, demons, fairies, valkyries are being tortured there to be obeyed. I saw even there is a man who wasn't alive anymore with his tongue out from there."
His face was pale, then his father said.
"It's gruesome, is it?"
He noded, he said.
"There is a small fairy that Lira tried to save before, but.."
He cut his word, he said,
"She's Freya Kalafina, to be precise."
Lex replied in shock. He said,
"Freya? Don't tell me that.."
He noded, but he continued.
"Both of them named Freya, the fairy twins, the younger one is Freya Kalafina, she was the one who Lira saved and then. She's the girl who served with Lira now."
Lex was surprised knowing the Fairies could bear twins as well.
He asked his father, he said.
"Then, where is the older one? Where is she?"
He replied in one word,
"Died."
Lex just remembered about the accountant who reported that he spent one hundred and fifty million Cigs. He said,
"Don't tell me.."
"I bought both of them. But I've failed to save Freya Pharaoh. Her older sister."
He continued to speak,
"I managed to save her younger one with her broken horn that couldn't get fixed anymore."
He asked him, he said.
"Why she died? I thought fairies are hard to kill."
He replied,
"She died by gang rape. An autopsy report from our health facility suggested that she had died three days ago before I managed to purchase both of them. If Lex had approved it earlier.."
He gripped his hands in a powerless manner. He said,
"Master Lex should be more attentive at this in the future. Your parents owed a debt of them."
Lex was shocked.
He knows that he just a child. He was helpless to that.
If he was older enough, He might able to help.
But in fact, he is just a child, powerless and couldn't approve anything without the adviser's consent.
He asked him,
"What my parents owed to them?"
He replied in the sad face, he said.
"Asmodeus failed to protect them, but Kalafina was the one who saved them."
He continued,
"Kalafina was a Dragon who served under Jason Richeolot and Michina Richeolot, your father and mother, same with me.
And your father was the nicest noble I've ever known."
His tear started to flow from his eyes to his face when he said that, as he tried to make it as he didn't cry.
Lex, who knows that he's crying try to speak to him. He said,
"That's fine to cry, tell us what happened. It's hard for us to get it over as my parents died a year ago, but that's fine."
He continued,
"With honor to the young master, I try my best not to be sentimental for it."
He remembered the day when he was a youngster that served under Jason Richeolot.
And he once said a word that he replicate that to Lex, he said.
"Your father told me, No slavery shall exist, race equality is a must.. His wisdom of that was the reason why I, Kalafina, and her younger sister, Echidna, was loyal to him. Three of us are the ones who shared a belief with the master when it comes to race equality."
And Lex nodded in agreement that his dad did tell him about racial equality, he said.
"Then, what happened next? All I know that my dad was busy.."
He cried, he said.
"He was framed by higher authorities of another empire that led him to get attacked from every way possible!"
He was shocked, then he said.
"So, what happened?"
He replied,
"He got stripped out from his clan position. He lost everything and even failed to save Kalafina's daughters, who she can't claim the custody on for being accused to had adultery with him. While in the face, those Raskar clans are nothing but a bunch of sexual predators! Worst thing ever? They hired Demons to kill him! Those demons weren't the culprit, but Raskar Clan is!"
Lex started to felt confused.
He indeed wanted to know about that.
But the issue is, he wanted to know what happened to Freya and her older sister. How come that she got that badly damaged mental health.
He continued,
"Raskar Clan was the one who conspired all of this, gaslighting our clan so they will strip him for eternity. But Kalafina and I were managed to restore both of your positions. In the exchange that she lost her fairy form for eternity."
Lex was surprised.
He remembers Kalafina indeed.
But when Kalafina had become a dragon, that she didn't look like a fairy anymore.
It's a reason why Lex couldn't recognize her when she unlocked his Dragon Mortal Mode.
He continued to ask him,
"Then I can say, Raskar Clan was the one who conspired to kill my parents. Am I right?"
He nodded, and he continued.
"This is why I must not allow Lira to go out this time!"
He stood and left the place, but Lex stopped him by saying,
"Hold it! Lira might not be knowing anything from it!"
He paused for a while, looking back to Lex and replied in the worrying face as his black eyebrow had risen a bit, showing up wrinkles on his head. He said,
"What should I do? I don't want to lose Freya, who is the daughter of my crew. And both of you, who are the sons of my master?"
Lex stood and walked to his side as he wanted to step out of his room and did something.
Upon closed to him, he said.
"I want to know what happened to Pharaoh before I'm deciding to do something for it."
He sighed, and he just said a sentence to Lex.
"She got mental abuse of seeing her own sister's death."
"Slavery is a crime, indeed. But, Pharaoh would be safe under Lira. Besides, he is the heir of the clan that everyone feared."
He understood that by any means, nobody ever dared to touch him.
But the problem is, what if Pharaoh was being split away from Lira? What if someone fearless abducts him instead?
What if Pharaoh went outside and missing?
What if either Lira or Lex, who got abducted?
Everything was possible, and it's applied until now.
He replied,
"You know, Lex. Everything could have happened, Lex, you made the right remark about it indeed. But, for both of you."
He shot the Ice Metoria to the outside of the corridor, signaling the guards while he landed a hit on his neck, renders him fainted.
And the story continues
