"Igris Seigfried, I haven't met him personally until now, in his entire family, he has the least accomplishments, he doesn't try to form connections at all during royal social gatherings ,
it's so nice of you to collect this burden from me, even if you did not, I would have found a way to make it Lucia's or the Tang siblings responsibility,
Now let me wash my hands clean of this matter, and buy as much time as possible while those outside figure get me out of this place, while saving face" Garrett grinned as he thought.
"seeing as we all agree, what's your plan Siegfried" Gareth said
"...."
Igris killed the smile on his face quickly, looking at Garrett's face , he thought
"This sly bastard, just because I spoke up , he hurriedly pushed the entire responsibility on me , shit, I didn't think i would get this far , I only wanted them to stop wasting time on what has already happened, and devise a plan to get me.....us, out of here, shit"
"So , does anyone have an idea , any idea at all" Igris said
"No matter how little your opinion, or any details we might have mistakenly over looked , I will be very much appreciate you opinions" , he added
"...."
"Shit " , he thought .
"Umm , I .... I have an idea" , a boy on glasses said, as he adjusted his glasses,
At this everyone's attention was shifted to him,
"finally!! "
Igris mumbled.
"please introduce yourself and share your thoughts with us"
Igris said,
"umm, I... I am Vidya von Sapien" The boy said
"Ah, sapiens, the final Duke house, unlike the other houses, the Sapiens rose to the title of Duke solely with their intellect, they are said to be the wisest in the entire kingdom, rivaling even the king who is said to be the wisest ,
For centuries they have served as royal advicers, this must be their only son, but what's with this timid behavior"
"..."
"Now that I think of it, it's weird, why did to notice him, I took note of key figures from the moment we got stuck in here, how did I not see him at all, anyways, that's besides the point, let's hear what he has to say "
"nice to meet you sapien, please continue " Igris said.
"OK, so far, it has been observed that we can not go out the same way we came in, assuming this were to be a test to obtain god's blessings, then we must meet certain criteria to pass this trial,
if we take that into account then we would have to turn this room, Inside out, searching from top to bottom ,
but considering our present predicament, that would be next to impossible as we would be very exusted, we also have injured ones in our midst, the part where there are different statues on each side probably means somthing,
but what proof do we have that they whey would not attack, we don't know for certain if we are being timed, or how much tjmw has passed since we entered here, there is no ray of sun in here, so we can't calculate it, we don't have food, neither do we have water, I am sure most nages tried to communicate with the outside, but that was, because aside from how weak they are, seems this room blocks outside communication also,
the big statue in the middle, we don't know how long it will stay there, neither do we know how time flows in here , hence... $$#$&$$$",
Vidya continued to go on and on about the possible ways to get out of the room, and the disadvantages, it's like he countered every idea he brought up, but no one could stop him from talking, after almost one hour of talking non stop, creating theories and disputing them.
"sapien" Igris called out
"So, out of all you said, how do we actual get out of here" Igris asked
"If this were to be a trial, then we would have to find clues to clear this trial, that would mean searching tbw entire temple, testing every theories... " as vidya continued rambling for the second time, stating all his theories,
Igris who was almost falling asleep turned to look at the prince, Lucia and others who were already sleeping.
" How long has it been?, he really loves sayib9what ever he wants eh" Igris said as he cleaned his eyes, took a deep breath, looked at the prince who was dozing off, smiled
" you'll pay for pushing this on me", he whispered.
"How The fuck do we actually clear this trial" Igris shouted,
The scream woke everyone up, and because of the size of the room it continued to echo.
"The statue with wings, the writtings on the stone tablet that is with the statue with wings, that is the key" vidya screamed
"Good work vidya, you did well," Igris said as he walked close to vidya and tapped his shoulder.
