All i have ever tried to stop happening right in front of me. I looked at Derik one last time, saying sayonara to this world and entering doomsday as she slowly turned. I gulped and stood in fear and hopelessness while my mind was racing to find an opportunity to stop all of this and I knew it was too late but my heart didn't and my mind could not stay put. I couldn't have a glimpse of my mind castle, and of all the times Naufilius can come, he doesn't. Even if he does, I cannot save Derik and her. Calfian for sure will take all of us down for leading her to him with my journal if only that journal gets in hands....which eventually will.
I closed my eyes as soon as everything got dark. Then, I was having an existential crisis of not knowing whether I was taken away to the afterlife, dying at that moment, or I'm just shutting my eyes so tight that I cannot feel it. There was utter silence and then I heard her soft voice saying, "N-no, this is not the person I came looking for, sorry..." I was quite astonished for a moment, but knowing her work and intelligence, I could have underestimated her. A clever girl, she, after all, did save us.
I call this even, for what happened earlier when we were young, but that was for later. I was standing shocked and dumbfounded, glaring at the two of them though happy to see a close friend after a long time, she swiftly walked away not looking at me while bumping into me and sneakily keeping the journal in my back pouch. I was relieved as all of my nightmares now dispersed staying nightmares still and not reality. I thank the great minds of Gadilyn, a strange name for her but she blames it on their parent's great history with the pirates.
We moved along with them while they spoke for a while and Derik doubted as he leaned to me and asked something in a very serious tone though it was merely important for the situation, "Are they dating?" He asked above all the things he could have about what just happened that was his major doubt. "I despise you, truly despise you though you are my best friend." Derik sighed and went back to staring at them like they were a couple but my bet is on here trying to help us somehow. I hope she didn't tell anything about the journal or it could go completely chaotic.
What was at fault was no more, I was kept on being relieved of all that built-up stress and I slowly went to the huge table on the other side of this big room. We all sat along with a bunch of seeming powerful, rich, and old gentlemen and a few ladies looking at the giant screen showcasing the map whilst also an opened copy of the map was displayed in the corner.
I analyzed all these people, a man not more than 45 wearing a golden Rolex quite modified to open a part of it and give him access to hide whatever he may in his watch. This must have been underneath the device as it held a button. The device seems to have technology that let's it split and cover any piece of paper or key in the space provided. All of these people wore something extraordinary and unique something of the same lengths.
Retractable shoes, peculiar glasses, wrist bands from another world. These people seemed too ordinary to do any of these things but that's how I know none of them are what they seem but what they wear.
I shift my focus to the man talking who happens to be Calfian and no Gen didn't take her eyes off him, she knew it would be suspicious if she saw us so she stayed vigilante.
Only thing I wouldn't know is why she is here and going along with this. What deal would have been made, it's dangerous for her and Calfian isn't the straight dealer type more like back stabbing take it all maniac.
My fear grew a little but this time I felt safe as my mind was working well making great plans. Just for now, I had to give in to the conversation. Our cuffs were removed stealthily as though the people sitting here shouldn't know and we moved closer to the table pulling the chairs.
Derik and I both listened well and close to Calfian, "Ladies and gentlemen, who have always serviced under our regime for years and hopefully will for years to come. In order to serve you for doing so here is the map of lost treasures that belong to my family. Retrieving these will only make me more rich and easy enough to take care of all your businesses and help you in case of emergencies. It's nothing that you don't know of.. "
He said pausing for a minute. So these are the filthy rich of Germany.. and neighboring countries. Regime?... is this some sort of a boy band Or something like the illuminati what was he planning! "All this that we fought for now laying in that side of this city... "
I couldn't believe he was about to tell them about the treasure and everything. It was impossible for him to do that as he knows how bad it would be if he does so. I must have known what a mad thing he is, he could be capable of any insanity levels.
"The treasure in one of these buildings holds true secret that if taken by us before those filthy Helsings we can take everything under control and seize their business and access to everything in this world. Crushing their efforts with just ours. "
This was something more than what I thought it was gonna be, we had to only wait and watch this but why was he pointing towards Gen and looking with pride at the people sitting in here,"She, this person here educated well enough as a archaegical expert and an expert in supernatural history. She is going to help us find these treasures and soon take over everything...please applaud for her."
He left and let her speak, this is what you call doomsday a better opportunity for us to get killed as this wasn't moving anywhere else but doomsday.
