Chapter 220 220 Nes, we have something-
[Lucy's POV: ]
"And brother Lucy!"
"Yes ma'am!"
"You a bad-bad, naughty-naughty boy! Why do you like causing trouble? You speak a looooooot of lies as if they are nothing more than words for you! How can you just go around deceiving people!"
"In will repent on my mistakes…"
"You said that last time as well! You little deceiving kitten! You lied just now as well! You need punishment! Hump!
Ethan! Use [Light of punishment]!"
"Shiiiiiiiiiiin~!"
The blob of light beside her shot a powerful light at me however, before it could hit me, a transparent white barrier covered me and absorbed the attack.
"Hmm? Anna! He has to be punished! Brother Lucy is a liar!"
[ "One cannot let him get hurt on one's watch though. One apologises to the little one however, if one wants to punish master, then one will have to use some other means than the skills." ]
Anna never allow the skills that could hurt me in me in way touch even a hair of my body.
She reverse calculates the skills and dismentals them without needing to use any active skill and when it comes to magic, she could even cancel self made spells like El's. She's just that amazing.
Even El has to use her [Dismantle] in times of need but, thanks to Anna, I don't have to worry about getting ambushed by some powerful skill. She's just… amazing.
"Hump! You get away with this skill every time thanks to Anna and El uses her skill as well! How can you two just do that! You should receive your punishments obediently! Uhun uhun uhun!"
She started crying again and, well, just like every one of our 'talks' El got up and started comforting her with a sweet smile on her face, again.
We have been through a few of these 'talks' and after a certain time, things became like this.
Her words were pretty effective but whenever it came to punishments, either Anna intervened when it was about me, and when she wanted to punish El, she did all she could to either block her skills or to destroy her magic spells.
'Ethan's [Light of punishment] was a unique skill that he possessed and depending on the context set by him, or his master Nes in our cases, the punishment varied.'
It was a random debuff skill that could give any kind of debuff starting from pain enhancement to damage enhancement, to instant death. It was broken skill that would come in very handy when grinding levels so we were planning to bring her with us when we go to level grinding in the high level mob areas in the upcoming holidays.
'However, before we do that, we were going for a dungeon run.'
It has been a week since I got my [True Six Season Sword Dance] and we are planning to depart for the adventuerer's association right after dinner.
It was uncertain how long we would take to rerun from that dungeon but, since it is a unique dungeon where the time flow is different, depending on what we do there and how long we stay, two days to nearly a month might pass in the academy.
And, we both knew it would come as quite a shock to Nes, that was the main reason we let her have the 'talk' first.
And, just like every talk we have, after her crying ended, we quickly got to the dinner part with all of Nes' favourite dishes prepared specially by the four of us.
'And by four I mean El, Anna, Friday, and me. Cary has not stepped foot into my kitchen after that first day. And, I don't want him anywhere around there unless we need his specific skill set.'
He is better at destruction so he will be a great help when we are hunting and stuff but, his destruction oriented and control skills were pretty much unnecessary around my kitchen.
Anna could do work of a few people with her magic and skills so she was much better assistant to have around. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝘤ℴ𝑚
"Hmmm…? What is all of this…?"
Nes noticed that all her favorate dishes were pareared today.
The aroma of all the dishes combined was so magnificent she was lost in the bliss for a moment.
The colors, the texture of perfectness of these colorful things, the visible deliciousness that induced a river of saliva, to every single bit of sensory input were heightening her hunger.
She glared at the food, the perfect food…
The night was perfect today, this food was all to her liking, she was a little light after her 'talk' and she knew from all these clues… something was very wrong here.
"Nes, we have something to tell-"
"No!"
"At least hear us out-"
"Nooooo!"
-Thud!
She smashed her spoon and knife on the dining table and was just about to stand up angrily, when El used her [Telekinesis] and pinned her body back on the chair.
"Calm down, Nessy."
"I don't want to! I know you are going to tell me something bad! I know it! I should have alredy known when everything was going so well today! You didn't cause any trouble today and sat till the end in this talk! I should have known! You wanted to do this all along, right!
I know! I know you are going to tell me something very bad now! Bastards!"
Of course you know. She made sure to give you enough clues throught the day for your subconscious to figure out something bad was going to happen. But, sadly dear… your opinion doesn't matter this time.
"Nessy."
Nes was trying to free herself from the restrains by force however, she wasn't physically as strong as the force El could except with her magic.
Her desperate attempts to escape from her were futile.
"Listen to me."
El grabbed her hand and looked right into Nes' eyes. She even used her [Light of strength] to calm her down, and when Nes had finally calmed down a little, after a deep brreth, she nodded at her.
And Nes nodded back, finally ready to listen to what we had to say… which meant this was my turn now.
"Nes," I called her out, and both of them looked at me.
We were sitting in our living room on the round table with the three of us on our usual chairs, and the familiars, as well as Miss Eva and Friday in their own special table, eating together like they usually do.
They were unrelated to everything that was happening here since they knew all that was going on alredy. Only Nes was in the dark about everything. But poor girl did not know that.
"What I am going to tell you might fit well with you, but, I promise it isn't as bad as you think it is."
She listened attentively with El stil grabbing her head in a unique way that made it easy to manipulate her thinking.
"We are going to go away for a while and it is uncertain when we will come back… you remember the request of the association, right? The third condition we had-"
"You are going there?! To that dimensional dungeon?! I thought we were going to go there together!! And I know now that it is a very dangerous place! I have read th records and! And!"
She was panicking. It was a good sign that meant she was at least listening to what we were talking about and the seriousness of the situation.
"We are going there, Nes. And no. You arent coming with us.
And since you have read the records, you must know what kind of place it is, right? The time difference and such."
"I-I-I know! But you can't!"
"We are going there, right after we finish this dinner. Everything is ready and if we dont come back after the weekend, Friday and Miss Eva will attend the academy in our stand.
They have unique skills that are appropriate for a perfect disguise so, it will be fine-"
"But! That! You can't do that! That's not right! You cannot!"
"Nes… you know we only attend becuse there is something we want, right?
Attendence doesn't matter to us much but with the two of them, we will still maintain our presence in the classes.
They know what they have to do so, you don't have to worry about a thing."
"Especially us, Nessy. We know how to clear that place and it is only a matter of time we come back. So, can you please just… wait for us until then?"
El took both her hands in her hand and looked at her with the most sincere face I had ever seen her make. It was so persuasive even I would fall for that. But Nessy didn't melt just from that.
"No! That's not right! I will tell the teacher! Yes! I will-"
"They would know without you telling them, Nessy. The thing is, we already had the 'special clearance' that allowed us to be exempt from the rules of the attendance. And, just recently, even the headmaster told us he would overlook our presence in the academy.
He told us to do something meaningful, and, we are going to do just that."
"But! No! That's not right still! You no can't please! Me! No!"
She was panicking again… time to finish it then.
"Nes."
I looked at her directly in the eye with the most seriousness I had ever shown to her, which was to the point she was intimidated by the gaze.
"What you want will not matter this time. Everything has been decided and prepared, and you will have to be by yourself for a while.
We will try our best to return as soon as possible and the two of them will be here with you in the meantime.
You are not a baby that we have to constantly look after and we aren't your babysitters either.
Try getting over the whole 'a girl from the woods' part and see the REAL world around you. And learn! That's what you are here for, no? You have a place to return to, and we do as well so… we will be back, undoubtedly. This one dungeon is going to be nothing for the four of us, you know, right?"
She always knew I had a bad kind of anger that was better off with only myself but now that she was seeing a fraction of it herself, she knew the sob opera wasn't going to do anything this time.
She had to calm herself down and think things through. And, thankfully, after taking a sweet thirty minute, she regained herself completely.
And then… without speaking a word, she started eating the food that was thankfully still warm thanks to Anna's special barrier.
She seemed to still be angry at us, however, she was eating her favourite lunchbox meal, so it was a positive outcome.
She understood what and why we were doing this, and she knew this was pretty much for her as well in a way, so, she understood the things a little.
'She already knew our reasons and the fact that there were many things we couldn't tell her but, if we were telling her all this with this grand feast before us, it must be because something important that we couldn't involve her in.'
She was smart otherwise anyway so, she was good. And since she had started eating as well, we also dug into the delicious chicken first…
'A dimensional dungeon… it was a unique space from the other dungeons that were born from a space's assessment of the system. It was practically connected to another dimension and was a unique space which could, well, we don't have to worry about this one.'
There was a chance we would have died if we were going there all by ourselves however, with Anna and the great dragonlord Cary, I'm wondering just how easy it is going to be…
Well, things should play out pretty well hopefully, right?
