Will of chaos

Pov Lucas:

The child is calmly sitting without moving looking at the night sky, he is alone, this is the best time to confront him if I remember correctly his name was Zenos.

"This is a beautiful starry sky, isn't it my intruder friend?"  (Zenos)

"..." (I)

"(How did he find me?)" (I)

"I don't know the reason for your visit, but to avoid attacking me from behind you must have come to talk, right?"  (Zenos)

Even from such a short distance I'm still not able to use my ability on him, for some reason when my Aura tries to get in touch with his it's like it's devoured and disappears, I'm not able to know his emotions, his strength level or view your status.

I didn't even realize that I was discovered before he spoke to me, without being able to read his emotions I can only judge by his tone of voice, face, and words to be able to find out something about him.

"You must be the new adventurer named Zenos, right?"  (I)

"You must know that yes, after all, you took the trouble to break into this mansion."  (Zenos)

"You already know my name but I still don't know yours."  (Zenos)

"You do not need to know."  (I)

"Since you don't want to talk then why don't you say why you came here?"  (Zenos)

"I want to know why someone like you is in this town, what do you want to do walking around in broad daylight with two Vampires?"  (I)

"I don't know what you're talking about, all I want is to live quietly, I don't want any mess, I'm just going to be another adventurer together with my family."  (Zenos)

"You call the two Vampires family, so you're a Vampire too?"  (I)

"All the people in this mansion are my family regardless of their race, this is the family I built in this world."  (Zenos)

He acts calmly, I thought he would try to use some form of magic to communicate with the others in the mansion, but I haven't seen anything so far and even if he tried I'm blocking this whole area from most types of communication.

All he does is sit cross-legged on this porch looking up at the night sky.

Every time I ask a question he deviates from the central point of the question, he is not letting any information slip.

"For someone who is wanting to live quietly, you made a big incident by getting into a crisis between Realms."  (I)

"I don't care about any realm, never mind the realm, I just don't want to be bothered by annoying things."  (Zenos)

"(It seems that the Duke and Prince Drago were right in supposing that his motive to leave the five nobles behind alive and to prevent the assassination was to avoid a war.)" (I)

"(But none of them could answer because since they didn't know who it was, I'm pretty sure it was this kid and his group but I don't have proof, I don't know if he knows I'm recording this conversation as he's avoiding the questions.)" (I)

I was starting to get frustrated, not being able to use my skill has already limited the main way I get information, but talking to him is even more frustrating as he doesn't respond clearly, if it were anyone else I would have tied him up and taken him away. to a place where I could make him talk, but without knowing his true strength, his true identity is considering his relationship with Kira, I don't dare do anything to him.

"You call them all family, so what would you do if I held one of them hostage so you could answer my questions?"  (I)

"..." (Zenos)

For a second his Aura floated from inside his body, that's when I finally could see the cause of my frustrations, but the moment I saw that Aura I was shocked, that thing was bizarre, I couldn't measure the strength of the Aura but it seemed to be me. judging before he controlled her back into his body.

It wasn't until I realized that while he was distracted by his Aura in that second he stopped looking at the sky and turned to me, his eyes were without any sparkle, it was like I was looking into an abyss, his face showed no emotion, but I could see through those eyes that he was ready to attack me in the slightest movement I made, at that moment I felt other Auras full of anger around me, one of them was Kira's.

I don't know how but it looks like he managed to break through my magical communication block and warn his group without me realizing it.

"I advise you to avoid playing these pranks again, after all, we don't want to do something we'll regret, don't you Guild Master Assassins, Lucas?"  (Zenos)

Looks like Kira told him about me, she's one of the few people who could recognize me even with a disguise.

"I apologize for my comment, I just wanted to see how important this supposed family is to you, your reaction already gave me the answer I wanted."  (I)

"If you've got everything you wanted you'd better leave now."  (Zenos)

"I don't know how you got in touch with your group, but I must say you guys need more training to hide and control your Auras."  (I)

"Before I leave I have a message for you Kira, your friend from the Black Market is going to be sold at the next auction and has asked you to buy her, whatever you decide to do is your business."  (I)

After saying this I use a short-range teleport to exit the mansion grounds and head back to the Assassin Guild happy knowing Kira is with people who care about her, as I haven't gotten any concrete clues as to whether they were the ones who saved her. Prince Drago cannot tell this to the Duke.

Zenos Pov:

I was just sitting there enjoying this beautiful starry sky when my sense of life skill felt a presence behind me, appeared out of nowhere so it must be none of the others.

I've tried to stay calm so I don't show the fear I'm feeling, meanwhile I have warned Kira and Diana through our connection as they are my Familiars, told them to gather the others and surround me and this person.

Meanwhile, I tried to distract him with some conversation, he seems to have figured out the brothers are Vampires, he also found out about us saving the third prince of Cartoza.

I was managing to act really well, I should have won an Oscar, but the truth is I used my body manipulation skills to lock the expression off my face and lock my vocal cords into a tone of voice so I don't give in the fear I'm feeling for the accident.

But the moment he threatened the others I almost screwed up all the acting he was doing out of being mysterious, I wanted to jump on him activating all my abilities just out of anger, but at that moment Kira contacted me through our connection.

"(Calm down master, he is teasing him to get some reaction from you, don't fall for his game.)" (Kira)

"(If it wasn't obvious that he's strong I would have attacked him by now, but except for my sense of life, no other sensing skills are sensing him.)" (I)

"(I'm not sure, but the way he talks and moves, not counting the stealth skills he's showing here, I only know one person in town who can do that, the master of the Assassin Guild, his name is Lucas.)" (Kira)

"(Is he an enemy or a friend in your opinion Kira?)" (I)

"(He is probably recording this conversation with you, the Duke must be investigating the attempted murder of the third prince of Cartoza and hired him for it, as we left no evidence he came to try to extract a confession from you, master.)" (Kira )

"(I knew this could happen since it was with him that I bought the information from the suspected nobles, for him, we were the main suspects but he has no proof.)" (Kira)

It was from him that Kira got the information from the suspected nobles, so he must have remembered that it was Kira who asked for this information, as she is in our group he came after me who is the leader.

After confronting him showing that he knew his identity he left, but before he left he gave a message to Kira, it seems he knew the others were around, I did well not to fight him, if not me and everyone else we could have died.

After he left I walked through the balcony door into my room and everyone gathered in my room.

"I really didn't like the way things turned out, I didn't think anyone would know anything, it seems like I was naive."  (I)

"You don't need to worry, his coming all the way here just to talk to you shows that he should have been recording the conversation and wanted you to admit it was us, it proves we didn't leave any clues behind or he sure would have found it."  (Kira)

"He would never deliver information without proof to a client, it would ruin his reputation."  (Kira)

"I hope you're right."  (I)

I threw myself on my bed and ran my hand over my face, that's when I realized I was still with my face immobilized, so I got him and my vocal cords back to normal.

"What friend from the Black Market was this he talked about before he left?"  (Diana)

"The only person I can think of is the Black Market receptionist who always attended me, her name and Nira."  (Kira)

"If she's a receptionist, then why did he say she's going to be sold at auction?"  (Sophia)

"On the Black Market everyone and everything is a resource that can be bought and sold, not to limits, she probably has some rare skill so they're going to sell her at such an important auction instead of selling her normally."  (Freya)

"If that's so, then why did she ask Kira to buy her and how did she get the Assassin Guild master to pass the message on to her?"  (Érica)

"I understand her, I've dealt with the Black Market a lot in my thug days, she must be scared of who's going to buy her as the types of people who participate in these auctions are not known to be good people, if she's pretty it will become someone's toy and if your ability is a rare one it will be placed in the position of a tool where you will spend the rest of your life using that ability for someone else."  (Leo)

"She asked for help for you Kira, so it's up to her to decide whether you want me to buy her or not."  (I)

"..." (Kira)

She was quiet with a worried face for a few minutes before Byakko stepped out of her hood in the back and pawed her in the face.

"You still haven't realized that if you're having such a hard time deciding it means you want to help her, you idiot."  (Byakko)

"You're right this time Byakko, thank you."  (Kira)

"I met her a few times, but enjoyed talking to her, but I always noticed her eyes, they are the same eyes full of loneliness and anger that I had when I was controlled by that corrupt Noble in the past."  (Kira)

"I want to buy her master, please help me."  (Kira)

"That's all I need to hear, let's buy her at auction then."  (I)

"Thanks, Master."  (Kira)
