Everything will be my way!

Chapter 427

There was a tense silence.

Tymoshka looked from Zosimos to Lanai’s collar, feverishly thinking about something. Being a noble phaser at the beginning stage, he can knock the old man out with one punch, and the head of the clan, whose elements are blocked, is just a fragile and defenseless girl for him now! It will not be difficult for him to suppress her by force, and then take possession of this cold and unapproachable beauty against her will! Now he can do something that he can’t even fantasize about before going to bed: it’s too impossible and absurd.

Tymoshka looked at the collar and Arpha once more, as if he had almost decided to do something very reckless.

«Go home. There is nothing you can do.» – Valeera said with some caution, internally fearing that the guy would break loose, kill her savior and do to her what Edward almost did half an hour earlier. One can say that now Tymoshka was scaring the girl, because she had no idea if he was capable of betraying.

After a direct order from the leader, the guy reflexively headed for the door, but already on the threshold he turned back to the girl, looking at her with a disgusting sticky look.

«I said, go to hell!» – Valeera shouted roughly.

Tymoshka instinctively shivered and left the headquarters. When he wanted to say something like: “I’m not going anywhere”, but the girl’s sharp cry knocked all the confidence out of him. He always respected and subconsciously feared Lanai, so he could not react otherwise. Later he will justify his decision like this: I’m just a good guy and would never **** my beloved one.

When he left, Valeera grimaced with displeasure: «Zosimos, you acted rashly, letting slip that I don’t have the powers. He could go to desperate measures because of unrequited love.»

«But lady, he is a trusted member of the clan, a person from your inner circle! If you don’t trust him to that extent, then why are you keeping him around?»

{I wish I knew.} – the girl thought, unconsciously plunging into the past.

Sitting down on a chair and crossing her long legs, Valeera tried to say the following in as soft a voice as she could, but she didn’t succeed very well: «Thank you for saving me, Zosimos. If you hadn’t saved me, I would have been left in Edward’s clutches. I am indebted to you. You can ask me anything you want.»

{Forgive Kyon!} – Lovr exclaimed in his mind, but he said quite different words aloud. – «When Edward and Isaac unceremoniously slandered you… When the heads of the clans threw off their masks, showing their vile insides… When it turned out that they all united against one weak girl, divided her property in advance, even planned who would **** her first… My mind went blank. I thought my blood would boil with anger! My contempt and hatred for these degenerates could melt a stone! Then I realized that I would definitely save you, otherwise how dare I call myself a man.» – after finishing the emotional tirade, he took a breath and spoke more calmly. – «You don’t have to thank me. I was guided by selfishness. By and large, I was thinking mostly about myself. A formal «thank you» is more than enough for me.»

Valeera’s graceful eyebrows shot up, and her mouth opened in amazement: {What?!} – the man’s words tore her expectations to shreds. Was guided by selfishness?! Seriously?! Isn’t he head over heels in love with her?! Otherwise, why the hell he heroized all the time in front of her, and in the end he even got into the lair of deadly predators to save her, despite the fact that he has daughters!

However, the girl believed the man’s words, because if he was in love with her, he would definitely ask at least a date as a reward. This is what she originally counted on. He deserved it. Well, if he had the courage, and asked her to become his woman, he would definitely have been refused. However, everything did not go according to plan! He doesn’t even want a reward! The only explanation for such an act is that it is really enough for him that she escaped from the clutches of Edward and Isaac!

«If you feel obligated to me, you can raise the percentage of profit from future income. I need money. I want to make my daughters’ lives a paradise.» – Kyon smiled slightly, inwardly enjoying the confusion of the beauty.

Valeera paused for a long time, pondering what she had heard, then nodded: «Okay, you’ll get a promotion. But first, tell me: how did you save me? I don’t understand why you weren’t killed at the meeting… And how did you find the headquarters of the Black Star Clan and get into Edward’s chambers unnoticed?»

Kyon used a pre-prepared answer: «When the security forces attacked the mansion…»

«Security forces?» – Valeera was surprised. She was already unconscious at the time.

«Yes, the security forces attacked us. I thought you were involved in this, weren’t you?»

«No…» – the girl whispered.

«It means that someone among those present turned out to be a traitor. Serves them right. In general, in all this turmoil, I was able to escape without much difficulty. Nobody cared about small fish while hunting whales. As for how I found Edward… Do you remember that tracking nephrite that I offered you to take? So I threw it to Edward, taking advantage of the chaos when the security forces broke in.»

«And I entered the territory using the same trick as in the Stalbers’ warehouse: a teleportation trigram. Then, by some miracle (not without the help of a concealment technique), I found you tied to a bed in Edward’s chambers… But before that, I planted several tens of kilograms of explosive material taken from the dwarves, which I then used to distract attention. Still, it would be stupid of me to go into the enemy’s lair without a plan at all.»

In fact, Kyon used a trick with a crow, not the teleportation trigram, because the sound from the movement process, which lasts for two minutes, would surely have been heard by the guards, as once happened with Triana. Although now this version will do.

Valeera pondered what she had heard for a long time, trying to understand how so many incredibly successful circumstances could coincide at once. Is it possible that Zosimos is really blessed by heaven for good luck, since he succeeded? The girl has long considered the man as a golden bird of happiness, and now this idea has only strengthened.

«How do you feel, lady?» – Kyon asked tactfully, moving away from the dangerous topic.

Valeera closed her eyes gloomily: «I feel like a bitch, since I can’t even feel the grief for my fallen comrades…» – the devastation in her soul suppressed all emotions. The girl treasured Bernard and Alexander, but she could not squeeze out a single tear for them.

«You are tired, I understand. You need to rest. I don’t think you should leave the headquarters with this collar around your neck. There may be a tracking formation on it. Should I bring some bedding? Are you hungry?»

The girl gloomily rubbed her face with her palms, trying to collect her thoughts. As Zosimos said, first she needs to remove the collar, but then what? How to proceed further? Information about the dissolution of the Silent Horror clan will quickly spread in the criminal world, which means that no one will work for her, and even if someone does, there is a high probability of betrayal and trap, because now she is the number one goal for all shadow clans.

«May I ask why you are engaged in criminal activities? Why do you need money?»

«To become as strong as possible.» – Valeera replied dryly.

«In that case, what are your near future plans?» – Kyon persisted.

Valeera said with unbreakable confidence: «I will destroy them all. But I need time. In a year, two at most, I will become invincible for Isaac and other bastards, and then their blood will be spilled, after which I will lead the criminal world of the capital.»

«Do you understand that our bodies do not get younger, and if you do not use expensive resources, it can affect future development? High-quality medicine of enzymes, accelerating development and transformation costs crazy money. This is about hundreds of millions of spheres! Are you really ready to spend two years sitting in the basement and being content with your status as an exile?»

«I… Have… Nothing else… To do!» – Valeera hissed with a pained grimace. The man’s words hit the very heart. To defeat the bloody empress, she needs to become not even a sovereign phaser (8), but an overlord phaser (9). And to reach such a high phase in her position is even more difficult than getting to the moon, because she no longer has a family that will not spare resources for the heiress. She has to rely only on her own strength, and every month of delay makes the goal even more unattainable.

«I see. In this case, I will help you.»

«Do you want to give me your share?» – the girl asked with a bit of hope.

«No. You’ll find it out soon enough. See you in a couple of weeks.» – Kyon headed for the exit.

«What do you mean, Zosimos?» – the girl tilted her head in perplexity, but received no answer.

Kyon planned to help the girl get rid of all the bastards who betrayed her, and he was not going to track down each «bug» separately. This would take months, or even years. He decided to swat them all at once, but how to do it? Obviously, either at a meeting of the heads of clans, or at an underground auction, which should take place in the coming weeks. All the authorities of the shadow world will be present there, including their successors. The perfect opportunity. The next one will appear only in a year. However, to implement the plan, it is necessary to contact the organizers, and Lovr had some ideas on this matter.

As soon as he left the headquarters, he put a barrier on the clan formation, blocking the tracking signal. Now he was not afraid to become invisible to Valeera, for he had earned enough trust to not be suspected of anything.

Kyon went to Bernard’s boys to tell them the sad news and comfort them, and at the same time asked them to tell everyone that they have known each other for many years. For this small favor, he promised them another meeting with Eve and Leila, who are now allegedly visiting their grandmother.

…

At noon the next day, Lovr discovered through visual formations that Adam and Pavel were visited by Valeera. She had already taken off the collar. She carefully told the boys about the heroic death of their father, and took them with her to a new home, because sooner or later the identity of the deceased will be determined, and people from the department will appear here.

The girl promised the guys not only safety, but also patronage. In fact, she took full responsibility for them: from paying for accommodation and school tuition to the selection of trusted guardians and security in general.

{After all, she has a heart.} – Kyon thought happily. Although Valeera desperately needs money, she will not spare a small part of it for the sons of the man who sacrificed himself for her. If she had done otherwise, he would have been disappointed in her.

Just at this moment, Lovr was surprised to notice with visual formations that Eve had woken up, and then Leila. Well, finally!

Just judging by the way the pixie began to stretch sleepily, Kyon concluded that she had not regained her memory: a three-hundred-year-old woman would not behave so carelessly if her memory returned to her. Eve’s reaction did not give any clues.

When the girls, judging by the expressions on their faces, remembered the battle with the demons, Lovr immediately noticed a certain oddity. The sisters, separated from each other and awakened in an unfamiliar place, behave too calmly. Especially considering that their father recently died. Something is wrong.
