After dinner Manav and Goddess stood up and walked back to their way.
The girl who tried to analyze Manav stood up and walked to the exit of the dining hall and walked to the deserted area.
She opened the analyze panel in the front of eye and the projection was reflected on her eyes, like they are shining.
[Name: Manav
Species: Puppet Beast
Level:???
Talent:???
Abilities/Skills:???]
"A puppet beast? Do I tell others or not, if I tell others than I can get quite a sum of money, but isn't it a bad thing to sell others information when they have done nothing to you and puppet beast is rarest species in this world." Girl said to herself while looking at panel projected on her eyes.
Pat*
Pat*
Pat*
"Huh?" The girl felt something patting on her shoulder so she turned back with confusion.
"Aahup" When saw Manav the puppet beast she tried to scream, but before she can do it, Manav put the small liquid ball of paralysis ability in her mouth and hold the mouth to not let her scream.
Girl was terrified she tried to get out of the claws of evil puppet beast.
But she found that her body was slowly losing control, and in few seconds she completely lost her body's control and her body fell limp.
Manav caught her in princess carry pose and started to walk toward his room.
He was cautious on the way, after half an hour they reached to his room, he knocked on it slowly.
Mime opened the room and was surprised by seeing it's owner holding a human female.
Manav heard the sound of footsteps, so he quickly threw the girl to Mime and turned back, standing straight.
Mime caught the girl and stepped back to reduce the impact.
Girl was crying and was terrified, because of her whole paralysed.
She can't even speak or move her tongue, only tears was falling out of her eyes continuously.
Mime turned and walked to his bed and put the girl on the bed.
A maid found Manav standing in front of his room closed the door.
She was confused but didn't asked his anything, might be puppet's master's order, so she ignored it and walked straight.
After Manav saw that she turned and was out of his vision, he stood there for another few minutes to reduce the risk, after finding that there was no one, he turned and walked into the room and closed the door.
He walked to the bed and looked at girl, whose eyes was filled with tears, her eyes has become red because of crying.
Manav didn't know that when Paralysis effect will wear off, but according to his calculations, effect will remain for atleast few hours.
Manav walked to table and dragged the chair near bed and sat on it looking at girl silently.
Mime curiously and confused shook Manav.
Manav turned his head and signaled him to go to sleep.
Mime wanted to refuse but he still jumped to the other side of the bed and lay down to sleep.
...
Midnight.
Girl whose tears have stopped falling quite a few hours ago moved her head to change its position, her neck was sore and hurting.
For these hours she have a came to one conclusion and that is puppet will not kill her, until she does something wrong.
"Water.." Girl said with difficultly her throat dry.
Manav heard it and turned to look for water, he found that Mime's bowl was filled with water but it was used by mime and Mime's saliva was in it.
So he turned his head towards the fruit and picked up one which looked quite juicy.
He walked back and put the fruit on girl's mouth and squeezed it slowly.
Girl was confused at first, but when she saw liquid falling from fruit she opened her mouth.
After drinking liquid of three fruits, girl stopped.
"Can you tell me why did you kidnapped me, but didn't killed me." Girl asked with timidity.
Manav stood up and walked to table and started writing on paper.
After writing a few words he walked back and put the paper in front of her face.
"I am not killer, and you're the one who tried to pry my information, and this will be dangerous if I let you go, without confirming that you're dangerous to me or not."
Girl read the paper, and said,
"If you want I will not tell anyone, can you let me go, as for analysing, I swear I will never try on anyone, pinky promise."
"I heard you talking that you need money, and money is the thing that can drive people crazy, and even brothers, or something and father can kill each other for money, how can you convince me that you will not tell anyone." Manav wrote again on the paper and let the girl read it.
"I swear, I will not tell anyone, you know I have not even killed a ant in my life, I will just be a poor girl who is trying to get her dream true and become a great engineer." Girl tried to convince Manav, and told him her dream.
"A dream of becoming a great engineer, you know dreams are something that can make you reveal my information, so there is one more reason not to let you go."
When girl read the text on paper she was scared, and her body which was started to gain control from paralysis poison, started to shake slightly.
Manav took back the paper wrote another text on it.
"You know one thing me puppet beast is so attractive and tempting to the outside world, that they will silence you for not spreading the information ahead, and if you met bad customers then they will do something to your body, like experimenting on you like those dark cults, or throw you to whore house, but after looking at your pitiful expression I will give you one chance, I will give you a poison whose antidote you will have to take from me every week, so decide."
"Okay, okay, I will take your poison just don't kill me, but do you not fear that I will take revenge on you, and as for potion I can go to those alchemists for solving it out, I have heard that alchemist association has created a device that can analyze 90 percent of different poisons known to kingdom in any person's body." Girl nodded to take the poison but she blurted out something more, after calming down that she will not die early and has chance to live long life.
Manav started at her thinking is she fool.
Girl when she saw that puppet didn't moved this time, she recalled what she just had said.
She put her hand son he rmouth with regret.
"I will give you poison, and don't worry, my poison is unique, no one can make antidote of it in one week, and with every antidote it will change the structure of poison making it impossible to track and study. Now tell me what is your innate ability and it's rank."
Girl read the paper, and although she become more sad, but she knew that atleast she won't die.
"My ability is engineering, but I don't know which type of engineering, there is an question mark on it, and explanation is that what branch to choose will become engineering tree, it's ranking is S level." Girl said.
Manav stood up and walked back to table and turned his back to girl, and quickly picked up a spherical seed of the fruit eaten by mime.
He walked back and opened her mouth and put the seed in it.
Girl subconsciously gulped down the seed.
She didn't see what puppet beast fed her, but she knew one thing that it was the poison puppet beast was talking about.
"Now you can go back, and if you find the skill tree of your ability tell me."
"If you know about my ability can you tell me, I can't quite understand what the info of my ability want to tell, I asked many teachers they said they can't understand about the branch and tree of the info." Girl said with confusion on her face, sitting on bed with her legs folded.
"I think it want you excel in one of many engineering types, like puppet engineering, magic instrument engineering, magic weapon engineering, magic vehicle engineering, etc."
"But all of these professions are already available and industry has so much developed that resources are controlled by those noble families l, associations, and companies." Girl replied with sad expression.
"I know about many professions that are not even developed yet, but those are also hard to comprehend into ability, but if you can persist than you have chances."
"Than can you give me information about few of those ability names and how to comprehend them, I can do anything for you." Girl said with timidity but her eyes was shining with hope.
"But there are conditions as price for what you want, do you think you can complete those."
