Chapter 64 - Gathering Intel

" Jenna, today's the day we've been waiting for, hurry up and get ready, we can't waste any time, you know that more than I do "

Was what Mikey said, as he waited outside of the house, with his back resting against the wall.

His blonde hair was covered up by a hood which was connected to a black shaded suit, which covered up every single inch of his body apart from his blue eyes

" Yeah I know, but then who's going to take care of Yuyen? I've grown close with her, it actually feels like I'm her mother "

Jenna replied as she began to look for something, moving and relocating things in the house the more she looked

" Oh yeah? And whose problem is that? No one told you to adopt a random girl in the streets"

Mikey replied as he stared at the sun, hearing from the insides of the house how his sister groaned and talked to herself, trying to find whatever it was she needed

" First of all, it was Shu's idea to save her, and second of all, we help people, that's what the Sukeki village is for. We aren't nobles Mikey, we aren't corrupt people who think their rank and status mean they can rule the world, besides, wouldn't you have done the same? "

Jenna questioned as she looked underneath the kitchen table, then the living room couch

" Jenna, we are on a mission, we gather as much intel as we can and then report them to the village, we shouldn't be worrying about taking care of some random girl in the —— "

Mikey stopped for a few seconds, thinking about what he was going to say next

" I take that back, yeah, I would have helped her as well, even if Shu didn't beg, cause I know he probably begged you to save her "

Mikey replied as he lowered his eyes toward the people far away, watching them walk around, laughing and enjoying life

" Hey, by the way, sis, if we do win the war against The Elsian Kingdom, what then? Would we enslave these innocent people? Or just kill them?"

Mikey questioned as he laid his head against the wall, as Jenna began to get ready, changing her wasted housewife clothes and putting on an exact copy of what Mikey was wearing but more suited to the woman's figure

" I'd doubt we'd enslave them, or kill them, that's simply not what the Sukeki village does toward the weak. We only Hunt the strong and corrupt, you know that Mikey "

Jenna replied as she walked out of the house, with a bag tied to her hip, but before she walked out she left a note for Yuyen, which talked about a secret place in which she could go to if anything with their spying went wrong

" Then what do you think the outcome would be if we were to win? "

Mikey questioned as he would then dig into his pocket, taking out a weird looking candy, throwing it into his mouth, proceeding to eat it, and the moment he did, his eyes glowed for a few seconds, changing colors, going from blue to green

" Here "

He said as he gave Jenna one as well, which she immediately ate without much hesitation, in turn, he received another candy, which he ate, but this thing me the color of his hair changed, from blonde to pitch black.

" This should be enough to make us unrecognizable "

Mikey said to himself as he contemplated his eyes in a window nearby

" If we win I think that we would just simply unite this kingdom with our Sukeki Village "

Jenna said as she jumped into a building, being followed by Mikey

" Are you sure though? Considering all the things this kingdom has done to our village, I doubt that the village head would want to unite with them "

Mikey replied, disagreeing with Jenna, which made her glare at him for a few seconds

" Anyway, we should find a way to infiltrate the castle and get some more information, so far all we have are the dates in which meetings between nobles will be held as well the academic schedule——which isn't much really "

Jenna said, changing the topic completely as she began to hop from building to building being followed by her brother

" Now that we're on the topic of academics. Did you feel Shu's presence when he came to visit us a few hours ago? "

Mikey questioned as Jenna turned to look at him

" Yes, it was really powerful, literally almost breathtaking "

Jenna replied as she turned away from him, heading toward the kingdom's castle being followed by her brother Mikey

" By the way, why are we infiltrating the castle right now? It's three pm, don't you think we'll get caught immediately? "

Mikey questioned as he jumped into the air, slowly falling down toward another rooftop, crashing against it loudly before continuing to dash on them along with Jenna

" Think about it this way. All the nobles at the moment are watching the tournament at the academy and the royal family will most likely make an appearance over there, so we'll have time for ourselves. Not to mention that... "

Jenna stopped for a few seconds, making Mikey even more curious as to what the last reason was, maybe she had a plan that no one could counterattack, or even better, she knows a way to get easy information

" No one would suspect two people would infiltrate a castle at this time so, whoever is at the castle, won't be too suspicious "

Jenna said, finishing her earlier words, and as soon as he did, a big percent of the admiration that Mikey had for her, vanished

" That's it? "

Mikey questioned, somewhat nervous, as he looked at her from the side of his eyes

" What do you mean 'that's it? It's a perfect strategy "

Jenna replied, somewhat irritated at her brother's answer to her strategy

" I was expecting something grand and amazing considering that we were going in, in the afternoon but it looks like we're just taking advantage of the tournament. Sure it works but, you had my hopes up, sis "

Mikey said, making Jenna's right eye twitch slightly, somewhat annoyed at her brother

" Spying doesn't have to look cool, we just have to be able to do it, besides weren't you in on it? You were even telling me to hurry up and be done with what I was doing "

Jenna exclaimed, as Mikey simply blinked in return

" Yeah, because I thought you had an insane plan and- "

" Shut up. We're here "

Jenna said, abruptly interrupting Mikey's self-talk

" We're already at the castle? "

Mikey questioned confused as to how they got to the castle so quickly

" We've been talking for quite a long time now, but that doesn't really matter at the moment. It's time for us to gather some intel "

She whispered as she pulled out a needle from her suit, stabbing it into an unseen window of the castle, which broke the glass into a thousand little pieces, so small that it almost resembled dust
