Chapter 46 - Shattered into flames

After the horse was well fed , Kiro got into the mansion one again . He remembered that the mansion had a basement .

"I need to find some strong liquor , something flammable "

Then he thinks again and says with himself :

"I could burn something that catches fire quickly , like I did back at that baron's mansion . No , I need to be prepared , as far as I know Vesper would want that mansion shattered to the ground by the flames . "

Kiro heads to the basement , than he begins to search . He begins searching the basement for hard flammable liquor .

"come on , I'm sure that bastard had something hard here "

He finally finds a shelf , hidden in darkness .

"Jackpot"

He finds glass bottles filled with a type of green liquid , It looked like alcohol .

-Well , I got to test this out .

Kiro gets out of the basement , then he grabs a candle from the mansion . He heads to the garden ,then he pours the liquid on the candle . It created a enormous ball of fire , like it came straight from hell . Luchia appears , and says .

-What are you doing with that guarian ?

-What?

-Don't tell me you don't know about it ?

-Could you explain it to me again ?

-Well , guarian it's a strong alcoholic drink that was made illegal a long time ago , where did you find that ?

-I found it in the basement , it seems highly flammable and I needed it for an experiment.

-Since have you become so curious ?

-Since now . Can you do me a favor ?

-What is it?

-Can you find me a bag ?

-You got it .

Luchia runs towards the mansion , then she comes back shortly after with a leather bag .

-That was fast .

-Thank you .

Kiro starts to stuff the bag with guarian bottles .

-Where are you taking that .

-I don't think you want to know .

-Sorry for asking then .

Kiro takes the bag then he mounts his horse .

-Make sure dinner is ready by the time I have arrived .

Kiro then sets off , disappearing into the forest .

"I really should lock the gates "

He rides his horse into the forest until he comes across the way that leads to the Acadia crossing .

"Now I should follow this path until I find another path , that path should lead to the mansion "

Kiro follows his way until he finds a path that leads to another direction .

"This must be it "

Kiro continues his way on the new found path . After a short while , he sees an enormous mansion that was easily visible from afar . Kiro leaves his horse rest and continues his way on foot . Suddenly he hears footsteps . They came from guards patrolling the area nearby the mansion .

"I should keep my head low if I want to be unnoticed ."

Kiro avoids the guards and after a while he comes across the gates of the mansion .

"They are locked , I should wait until someone opens them "

Kiro waits patiently . Time passes , the guards that were patrolling the forest finally arrive at the front gates . Another guard approaches the gates and opens them so his fellow guardsmen could enter .

-This is my chance , Time leap .

The time slows down , Kiro runs toward the gate , just before they closed it , He then runs towards the mansion and as soon as he enters , he hides into the shadows .

"Now I have to move fast with this bottles "

-Time leap

The time slows down once agian . Kiro rushes to everyroom he sees and spills guarian all over them , he also makes a trail for the fire to follow. He pours guarian all over the place , not leaving any places untouched. Until now he had spilled four bottles of guarian .

"This will be enough , I'll use the other two bottles to create a trail for the fire to follow outside. "

Kiro then creates a trail for the fire to follow , leading it outside . He grabs a candle along the way , then he finds himself outside the mansion , the time leap's effects were still going on , everything around Kiro was moving slow , almost montionless . Kiro drops the candle on the guarian trail he made. The time went back to normal , The guarian catched flame quickly , it followed the the trail Kiro had made , leading it into the mansion . Kiro finds a tree in the garden , climbs it and hides. Shortly after , the mansion was on fire , screams were heard everywhere , inside and outside the mansion .

"This catches fire quicker than gasoline , The whole mansion is on fire in less than three minutes!"

People came out of the mansion , shouting and screaming . Some of them had caught fire .

"Just like the first time "

-Time leap

Kiro jumped from the tree , over he fence and into the forest . He rushed to his horse . Eventually , he found it resting in the place where he left him . Kiro mounts the horse and sets off , heading to the mansion .

It was getting dark , Kiro finally arrived at the front gates of his mansion , As soon as he enteres he heads to the living room.

-Luchia , I really need a cup of tea right now.

-You got it .

"Well , I really need a rest right now ."
