Chapter 40 - Owl's Nest

"Thank you for cleaning that up now sit down you three and let me introduce myself properly to all of you," Owl said while looking towards Adam, Bull, and Bunny who quickly nodded and sat down on the three wooden chairs that were on the opposite side of Owl's chair.

"Do you three would like some tea? I just got my favorite tea delivered, do you three want to try it?" Owl asked while looking towards Adam, Bull, and Bunny who quickly nodded.

"Okay give me two minutes to make the tea." Owl smiled as she turned around and walked toward her kitchen that was on the corner of her place. Two minutes passed by as she slowly walked towards the round table while pushing her metal cart that has four ceramic cups and a large ceramic teapot.

Owl puts down each of the ceramic cups right in front of everyone that was on the table and slowly poured each of them with tea. She sat down on her chair and looked towards Adam, Bull, and Bunny who were staring at her while holding their teacups "Okay let me introduce myself properly now. My name is Owl and welcome to Owl's Nest where I buy and sell information."

"You don't need to introduce yourself I know everything about all three of you and congratulations that you three have formed a team together." Owl smiled towards Adam, Bull, and Bunny.

"So tell me do you three have any questions or do you want to buy some pieces of information from me?" Owl asked while she holds her teacup and took a couple of sips from it.

"Buying information? What do you mean by that?" Bull asked while raising one of his eyebrows and looked towards Owl who was still drinking out from her teacup.

"Yeah what is this place?" Bunny quickly asked while looking towards Owl who slowly puts down her teacup to the table and holds it with both of her hands while smiling.

"You didn't explain everything about me to your teammates before you come here, Lion?" Owl asked while looking towards Adam who quickly looked towards Bull and Bunny.

"Yeah I forgot about that sorry, Bull and Bunny this is where you can buy pieces of information that can help you in the game," Adam explained while looking towards Bull and Bunny who were looking towards him.

"Pieces of information that can help us in the game? Does that mean she knows everything?" Bunny asked while looking towards Adam.

"Yes, Bunny like I told you before I know everything about everyone here from your name, where were you born, and even your shoe size I know everything in great detail." Owl explained while looking towards Bunny.

"So tell me why did you three come here," Owl asked while looking towards Adam who quickly nodded.

"Yes, Owl we would like to know the most dangerous contestants for us that we can run into in our second game," Adam answered while looking towards Owl who quickly nodded as she crossed her arms.

"Okay, that's a very good piece of information that you want. Your first threat will cost you one million two hundred and fifty thousand Crowns and if you want more you have to pay double of the last price." Owl answered while looking towards Adam, Bull, and Bunny.

"Hey Lion are you sure you want to buy that? That is way too expensive for just a single name." Bunny whispered to Adam who quickly looked towards her and smiled.

"It's okay Bunny I can afford it plus this is very important for us, we can be prepared for everything if we know this," Adam said while looking towards Bunny.

"Owl I'll take the first name," Adam said as Owl nodded and stands up from her chair, Owl went to her left side and stopped right in front of the wooden wall that was beside the wooden table.

"So do you only want to buy one or do you want to buy more later?" Owl asked as she turned her head around and looked towards Adam who quickly shook his head.

"Okay." Owl turned her head back around and stared towards the wooden wall that was right in front of her. She knocked the wall exactly six times as a small part of the wall that was right in front of her suddenly sunk in and opened on its own.

A small wooden platform slowly came out from the hole with a large black printer on top of it, Owl tapped a couple of buttons that were in the middle of the printer and the printer started to print out a couple of pieces of paper.

One minute passed by as the printer stopped and Owl grabbed the pieces of paper that were hanging out from the printer. She pushed the small wooden platform gently and it went back inside the wall while Owl walked back to the table.

"Here you go this is the biggest threat for the three of you," Owl said as she puts down each of the paper in front of Adam, Bull, and Bunny who quickly grabbed the papers.

"If you look towards the middle of the paper that you're holding right now that is their picture, they call themselves TRP or The Rat Pack." Owl explained as she sat down on her chair.

Adam, Bull, and Bunny quickly looked towards the middle of the paper and saw a picture of five men that were wearing identical rat masks that have different colored eyes. Red, yellow, green, pink, and purple from the left of the picture to the right.

All of them were wearing long black raincoats that have a round patch in the middle of their coat which was colored similar to the color of their eyes that have two crossed bones in the middle of it with a rat skull on top of it.

"They're the most coordinated team out of all the teams that are in The King's Game right now. They can easily take you guys down so be very careful with them. I can't tell you what their way of fighting is or their weapons because of the rules of the game so that's all I can give you but like I said be very careful the three of you can't defeat them." Owl explained while looking towards Adam, Bull, and Bunny.

"Okay now get out of here I know you three can't afford the next one so scram I got another customer waiting for me," Owl said as she waved towards Adam, Bull, and Bunny who quickly stands up from their chairs.

"So our biggest threat is The Rat Pack huh, have you guys seen them anywhere?" Adam asked while looking towards Bull and Bunny as they stand in the middle of a wide alley.

"No never this is the first time I have seen them but look at this paper that Owl gave us there's a lot more information of them here." Bull said while pointing towards his paper.

"Yeah I wonder how they got the same makes like that, and those eyes are beautiful," Bunny said while looking towards her paper.

"We should get stronger and we should listen to what Owl told us. We should avoid them when we meet them in the game and if we can we should watch how they fight that will be a good advantage for us." Adam explained while looking towards Bull and Bunny who quickly nodded.

"Okay let's go to the playground." Adam turned around and ran through the wide alley that they were in with Bull and Bunny behind him.
