It had been 3 weeks since Drac killed Jina. He had chopped her body and had buried her in the garden itself. But even in her death, she had this control over his mind, as it was still trying to process the conversation with her.
With her death, he now had no one he could rely on to supply him the information about the happenings of the castle. It was clear to him that she had come to know about his true intentions way earlier than he expected, so he was not sure whether she had ever lied to him about her findings.
I also needed to look for the way from which Jina had planned to run away from here, But the thing was, he could not just vanish out in thin air for hours. Because it will take hours to go through the whole lab. For now, the only thing that he could do was bring the book up, whose language he understood. While most of the books down there were written in a language that he could not understand.
As the butler of the castle, he had a lot of responsibilities and chores to take care of around the castle. He could not just vanish, and explore what was down there.
It was then he felt something vibrating in his pocket. He took the green tablet and poured some mana into it.
"Drac," came a male voice from the other end.
"Lord Kaisel," he said, "How may I serve you lord?"
"Have you ever heard about Rose?"
He was taken aback by the question, but didnt let his voice crack, "No my lord. What is it?"
"It is a flower," he said, "And from what I know, it was the insignia of a house of the kingdom in the old days. I need to find any information about the flower that I could find. Where should I look?"
He thought about it for a second, "How old is this house? Because if it is not that old, we would be able to find something related to this house in the Sumor Archives,"
"No," Kaisel said, "Mikaila tried to look through the books. There was no mention of such a house in that place."
"Well, if that is the case, then we would surely find something in the Royal Archives. From what I have heard the library in the royal mansion is pretty extensive,"
"Go and meet Yasmine,"
"Understood," he left watering the plants, and made his way toward the castle.
He went to the master bedroom and saw that the knights that the women brought with them were not stationed out there. Which meant that Yasmine was not in there. Those knights are there to protect Yasmine from what he has, as they always follow wherever she goes.
Let's check with Tara, he thought and made his way towards Tara's bedroom. She was the second in charge whenever Yasmine was not around.
He knocked softly on Tara's door when he heard a soft voice from inside, "Come in,"
Drac pushed the door open, only to find a very weird scene before his eyes. He saw Sara, Tara's twin sister inside. He saw that she was sitting fully naked on a chair, while her delicate were out in the open. Buford, one soldier left alive from the night was the massacre, was naked and rolling on the floor in front of her. And it seems he was rolling on some liquid, and was giggling like a maniac.
While in Tara's bedroom was Hubert, another soldier who survived the massacre. He was also naked, while his little brother down there was fully erected, and he was thrusting up in the air, trying to have sex with what seemed air.
What the hell is going on here, He thought looking at the bizarre scene before him.
"Ah," Sara said seductively, "Isn't it the serious butler of this little castle,"
He bowed to Sara, "Mistress. I am looking for your sister or Mistress Yasmine. Do you know where I could find either of them,"
"Well, they are not here," she said while stretching her ample breast. She had a sly smile on her face, she was doing this deliberately. She then stood before him, her breast just before his eyes, "What can I do for you?" She then bent down and made eye contact with him, "If you ask nicely, I might not deny your sincere request,"
He had realized what she was getting at, but he was not a fool to who stick his dick anywhere, just for pleasure, "Master Kaisel told me to talk to Mistress Yasmine about something,"
She stood up straight, and with her delicate finger lifted his head, "You know.. I can feel it. Your lust that you are trying to control.. Free it. Let it ride the air around you, let it flow in your veins. Only then would you truly be free,"
Being free? Nonsense, he knew better than to listen to her.
"If that is the case," he said, "I will take a leave," He bowed, making her smile.
"Such resistance…" she said seductively, "I can only imagine what will happen when the dam of lust inside you breaks…"
It was then he heard a vibration. He looked to his right, something was vibrating under the discarded clothes of Sara. She flicked her fingers, and the green tablet like the one that he had floated towards her. She poured some mana into it, and Kaisel's voice resonated in the room, "Work with Drac to make sure that Operation Silence goes smoothly."
He looked at her, and with an annoyed face, she snapped her finger and both the soldiers stopped whatever they were doing. As if waking from a dream, they looked around confused about what was happening. "Clean the room before you run away," she said while glancing at them, "If my sister finds any trace of your juices in this room, your heads will be put on a spike," and she looked at him, "There is a map of the whole kingdom in my room. Bring that in the master bedroom." He nodded and went to fetch the map…
On the long table before him, the large roll of the map. Sara who was not fully dressed was standing opposite to him.
"This the whole Alanor Kingdom," she said. Then she pointed at the dots marked on the map, "These dots are the communication Tower."
He had read about these towers. Around 600 hundreds of years ago, some mages came to the Alanor Kingdom to make these towers. From what he had read, these mages were strong and were kind of bullies. Neither the king nor the powers of the kingdom were strong at that moment so that they could go toe to toe with those Mages. In the end, the kingdom was left under the mercy of the Mages for about 50 years or so.
The mage made these towers by using slave labor from the kingdom itself, and when they were done, they just left. It was only later it was realized that these towers were sort of like an experiment that the mages wanted to conduct.
"These towers are the way that the Royal Family can maintain contact with Hargrave Continent." Sara said, "But if we demolish the one controlling the tower, located here, in the royal palace" She pointed towards the capital of the kingdom, Alanor City, "Then we would be able to start our grand plan for this place."
She sighed, "We cannot attack the place straight on. The mages who built the tower made sure that someone only with a special token would be able to get close to the tower. We could break the barrier and get close, but then the tower would send a signal to the Hargrave Continent,"
"Who has the token?" he asked.
"We dont know. But if we had to guess, Queen or Crown Prince."
He nodded and then noticed the writing at the top of the map. He couldnt understand the language, but the words of the script seemed familiar to him. He then remembered this language was the one in which most of the books down in the lab were written. Not only that, the tracing that Travis showed him when they last met, was also written in the same language.
"Mistress, what language is that?" he said while pointing at the map.
She slammed her palm on the table, "Focus Drac. We need to come up with a plan here. Not learn new language,"
He nodded, but still added, "Well it seems familiar to me, that is why I asked. I apologize,"
"Where exactly did you see this?" she asked, taking his bait.
"Well, the Sumor Family supposably had this big secret vault or treasure.. Or something similar. Lord Gregor found a scripture written in similar language in that place…"
"Well, that doesn't concern us…" she said, "We need to find a way to get that tower destroyed," He nodded, feeling a little dejected that she didnt take the bait.
It didnt take him long to come with up the special plan, where Sara seduces the crown prince. But that was immediately scrapped by her, as she could not show herself in public. Especially not with her size. He suggested that they could use Mikaila, and it was then that she revealed that was their original plan. That is why, Mikaila wanted to throw a ball in her honor.
She also mentioned something interesting, "… With the changes happening in her body, she had foiled our plan when she met the crown prince. And as you also behaved rather rudely in front of the Prince, Kaisel is not confident that Mikaila would be able to pull something off in the time that we have,"
It was then did he remembered the royal knights that came to the castle that day. And Mikiala's talk with the man leading them, he understood immediately that the leader of the royal knights that day was the Prince.
From what he understood, something had happened in the past few days, that had made them restless. They wanted to move their plan forward, as soon as possible. Why, she didnt tell. But seeing her acting so serious, he figured this was a very serious thing.
In the end, he could only think of one single thing, "Well, then.. I think we have only one way to get the Prince under our thumb,"
"And what might that be?"
"Milady, didnt mistress Yasmine say that the Prince had a special interest in me?" he asked, "If he were to get a certain well-crafted message, about me and my evil doings.. Do you think that he might come and give me a visit?"
His words made a very creepy smile bloom on Sara, and like that, a plan was formed…
