Chill runs on my back, to think that there's someone who knows about 5000 years or maybe someone from 5000 years ago. I always believe that I'm not the only one who got time skip to 5000 years, I believe that maybe there's someone like in the world. The reason why I believe that I'm not the only one is that the way of my time skip is too weird, though it's just my speculation, I feel something is weird in my time skip, my time skip didn't use any machine or something like transportation like the time around me is been fast forward and for some reason, I've been sleeping for 5000 years. Yes, it's like a miracle, a miracle that is on purpose for me to come to this era, I don't know if this is the work of god or something else in this world, but something that I have in my thought since the first time I realized that I time skip, 'I have a purpose in my time skip'.
Back to the topic, now that I know that maybe there's someone who knows about the knowledge from 5000 years ago like Alcott and the one who orchestrated Alcott from behind him, though this is just a speculation. I and Arsya thinking of the possibility of my speculation, Arsya believe in my speculation since I am his master, she didn't have any doubt when I told her why I really uneasy and suspicious on Alcott story. When I told Arsya that maybe there's someone who have the knowledge from 5000 years ago or someone from 5000 years ago, she begins to think as to why did that person let that monster out. Arsya then pointed out something that is in my mind for a while.
"Master len, there's something is bugging me from our talk… if that person is really someone from 5000 years ago or maybe someone who has the knowledge from 5000 years ago then, why did that person letting out that dangerous beast? If that person knows should they think that beast can destroy the balance of the world or maybe it can destroy the world? For what reason did that person let that beast out?"
That is the real question, why did that person let that beast out? Are they have some objective in letting that beast out? Are they trying to control it? Or are they trying to use it? It's really unclear as to why letting that dangerous beast is out on this world.
"Yeah, you're right… There's no merit in letting that beast out in this world. That beats have the power to control other monsters as he like, I doubt the mind control magic or some device like a mind control can control that beast, the one who can control another being/monster surely have their own defence in the mind control device or magic if that magic or that device exists"
I believe someone who can control other minds have their own way to protect themselves so that they didn't get controlled by others. Either way, we didn't know the reason that person release this beast, that person's objective is unknown. I doubt that person has a good reason to release the beast, I believe that person plotting something bad since they are trying to kill Alcott and his team.
"And Arsya I believe that person is plotting something bad from behind, the way he killed Irvin and trying to use Alcott to kill others is really brutal…"
"Yeah, using the maneater worm and using Alcott to bring it to the guild… really cruel, If we late a second on activated our barrier may be the casualty will be massive"
Arsya have the same thinking as me, she realized too.
Just like I said before, this person who releases the beast may be the one who kills all Alcott teammate to erase the witness and evidence, that person using the beast to erase Alcott teammate, I'm sure the one who kills Irvin is that person. From Alcott testimony, it is said, that Irvin separated from them when they tried to lure that beast to fighting again another beast, and when Irvin back to Alcott there is a hole in his stomach, Irvin is someone who is hard to kill, I can feel it from the first time I meet him, the power he maybe is on par with Jade, I believe he can survive if his objective is just to lured that beast and not fighting it.
"Yeah… Arsya, can you and Rudy Investigate about Alcott teammate after this battle?
The purpose is so that we can know the mastermind behind this incident. Arsya then sips her tea and answer me gently.
"I'm sorry about that master, after this battle I believe Rudy will be released from his position, so do I"
She apologized, but for what reason did Rudy and Arsya released from their position?
"Released!? Why? did you make any mistake?"
I believe the two of them didn't make any mistake, instead, the two of them right now are one of the pillars that defense this city.
"Isn't that we made a mistake, it's just… we will be released from our position because we will be blamed too for this incident"
Wha… blamed? How can they're blamed? They even didn't the one who release the beast, why did they get blamed too?
"How can? The guild isn't a fool… is there any reason for you to be blamed in this incident?"
I think the guild isn't a fool organization they must have their own think why the two of them are released from their position, I'm sure there's a reasonable reason.
"To put it simply is because we give Alcott team permission to go to that ruin first and causing them to open the gate"
Arsya then tells me the reason. When the first time I heard it, I thought their reason is making sense, but it's not fully their fault the fault one is Arugos kingdom and the other 4 nation who make the move first, Rudy can't refuse them because it already got back up from another country, he is just guild master in the face of the four-nation approval he can't say no to them, it only makes them pissed off if he rejects it.
"Hmmmm… is it because the guild is a neutral organization?"
I asked Arsya
"Yes, it is because the guild is a neutral organization, that's why we are the one who gets the blame"
The guild is a neutral organization they can't take asides to another country. They got blamed because the guild wants to keep the status quo. Arugos kingdom have the back up from other 4 countries and another 5 countries didn't join the first expedition if the word is heard by another 5 countries that didn't join the expedition I'm sure they will launch the protest and will demand the other 5 nation a punishment because they broke the agreement, plus with this incident, I'm sure the other 5 nation will become more furious on their action. They release the beast that shouldn't be released and bring harm to the city and not only that… the budget to restore the city and protect the city is being used by their mistake, though this city is in under protection by join nation and the cost is split, the fact Arugos kingdom and their back up made a move first it can't be avoided. I began to understand as to why the guild release the two of them from their position
"Well, I understand it somehow… for avoiding the wrath from Arugos and the faction, the guild will only blame Rudy because Rudy give them permission and to avoid the conflict behind two sides and to make Arugos faction knows that guild will not be siding to the other side... is that right?"
Basically, the guild doesn't want to get in the conflict between nations and only blame it on Rudy, since the conference of the nation will be hell after this incident… I'm sure some country will complain and become more hostile to other, and in here the guild will wash their hand* so the guild will look like a neutral organization. Oh, and is not that Arsya will get blame too, but she will out from the guild because Rudy isn't in there too, they're a husband and wife moreover they have a kid, I'm sure after they release from their position they will be back to our village. The guilds are clever, but at the same time it pissed me off since Rudy will only the one who gets the blame… he is my friend you know, there's no way I'm not pissed off when hearing it.
"Yes, it's like that… no matter what, the guild will not join the political act, the guild is just big organizations that want to make money and protect the people from the dangers of the monster"
"haahhh… they're very clever, that top brass from the guild headquarters… with this, I will not get info about that person, or maybe I can say the impostor…"
I groaned.
"I'm very sorry master to not be that useful in this kind of time…"
Arsya apologized she feel that she and Rudy is disappointing me
"No, no don't be, it's not your fault, beside there's more than one way to get more information"
I give Arsya a mischievous smile.
If you can't find the information with a legal method… there's always the illegal method in there for you, haha.
"Fufufu, indeed"
Arsya laughing with me as if she understands what I mean as expected from the people from our village.
"But… well, it's really unfortunate to be released from your job… aren't you will miss the job Arsya?"
Asked me. Arsya then stand from her seat and walked to the window she looked at the city landscape and the refugee outside, she smile while her eyes sad, she made a sad expression and said
"I will be lying if I'm not enjoying it… Rudy and I already fond of this city, we even regard this place as our second home aside from the village… we have so many memories in this city for these 3 years, we tried to help the adventure, the people and help the governor too and with this, it will be our last duty to protect this city from the flood… it's really unfortunate… well, in the end, we can't do anything though and I can't stand in here if Rudy isn't in here. I'm sure I will miss this city…"
I can understand her. Rudy and Arsya, the two of them are like being kicked from the town by the mistake that they didn't make or they leaving from what they are called home because they sacrificing themselves. I can understand her sadness a little and I can understand how they feel…
