Inside the temporary hideout of Ivana's guards, they saw and heard their conversation. They felt that they're watching a drama from a movie and some of them teared up. Of course, Nicole was already wiping her tears
But, before she can even said something, Kazuki uttered
"What a charade"
Immediately, Nicole and the other guards glared at him. Startled by their synchronized turning, he nervously asked
"W-What is it?"
The other guards gave him a disgusted look before turning their heads away. Nicole said
"That's why you have no friends, you bastard"
Kazuki ignored her words and said
"Hey guys, I think we need to go to our positions. I'm starting to think that the plan will mess up due to them being emotional. Clarity and precision are needed when conducting an operation. And they now failed at it. Including boss"
The guards looked at each other before one of them said
"But we didn't get any order from the boss"
Kazuki clicked his tongue and said annoyingly
"Can't you tell? Our boss obviously forgot about it! The moment the woman left, I'm sure that she's supposed to give us orders, but got sidetracked by Ilaya. We need to take initiative, or they're going to be in trouble soon"
Then, Kazuki said seriously
"Remember, we are the boss guards. We need to protect our boss from danger she can't predict. And now is that time"
Then, the guards heard Nicole
"He's right. I think it's better to be safe than sorry. We are going to update Ilaya about our movements as the boss' condition is strange. She can be our middle man between us and the boss"
Then, Kazuki got up and started walking towards the table where they're equipment was laid
"That's enough watching. We need to move now"
As he said that, Ivana's guards all stood up and picked their weapons. They all had a determined expression as they walked outside one by one. Nicole and Kazuki waited until they're gone. Then, Nicole said
"Where do we go?"
Kazuki laughed before saying
"You're saying the obvious. Inside the mansion of course"
Nicole grinned as they walked
"Just like old times huh?"
Then, the two vanished from the street as they headed towards the mansion in the distance. Ready to bring death and chaos
…
Meanwhile, in a room not far from where Ilaya and Ivana were. Chelly was talking to the guards inside a room. There's about ten guards and they are starting to get annoyed by the delay of their 'meal'. One of the men asked her impatiently
"Miss Chelly, how long are those two going to get here?"
Chelly meanwhile was checking her hidden camera to record what was about to unfold later. She will keep it as a memento and watch them when she's bored. As she heard what the man said, she replied
"Until I finished this. Also, why is that one in the corner being so gloomy?"
Chelly noticed that the men are all excited, all except that one man. He was staying silent and didn't join their excited chatting. Then, one of the men said to her
"Haha. This one is a rare breed and against forcing those women to be our toys. Just ignore her Miss Chelly"
Chelly then stared at the man and said
"Wow! What an honorable gentleman. Are you going against my order?"
The man glared at Chelly with contempt. Then he said
"I applied as a guard here to do my job. To guard. So pardon me if I got disgusted by the plan you all are concocting. I want no part of it"
The man didn't hold back his words at all. If Nicole was here, she would immediately recognize the man as the one who gave her food when she was in her getup and spying the place. Chelly grinned and thought for a bit. Then, she asked all of them
"Do you all know if he had a family or something?"
At that question, the man trembled as rage boiled in his chest. He shouted at her
"What are you planning to do!?"
Chelly glared at the man and said
"Lower your tone you lowly man. Don't you dare raise your voice in front of me"
The man can only watch her as he suppresses his rage. Then, one of the men said to her
"From what I know, he didn't have a family anymore except for his little sister. They all died in an accident from what he said"
Chelly grinned. The man saw her creepy smile and he suddenly felt fear. He had a hunch about what she's going to do. Then, Chelly said to him
"I'll offer you a deal that you will not refuse. Do you want to hear it"
'No! I don't want to hear it!'
The man can only complain in his mind as he stays silent. Then, he heard the dreaded words
"Here's the deal. I want you to violate the two women first. Of course, there's a reward for that, even though that's already a reward in and off itself"
Chelly laughed before saying
"The reward that I will give you is that I'll give you and your sister enough money to last until you both die without working. How about that?"
The other guards looked at Chelly with wide eyes. They're starting to regret not acting like the lucky man earlier. They all looked at him with envy and greed. The man however thought
'Since there a reward, there also a punishment'
As he thought, he soon heard her said
"Of course. If you don't do it or refuse my offer, I'll make sure that you will watch your little sister to be…"
Chelly glanced at the men around the room as she smiled at him and said
"So choose wisely, handsome and honorable gentleman. Will you choose to be a good man and suffer a horrible fate? Or be dyed in black and commit horrific acts to give yourself and your sister a better life?"
The man closed his eyes and his expression was filled with pain. He can only uttered
"You're evil"
Then, Chelly grinned and said
"No. If you live a place like mine, you have no choice but to became evil. So, you're answer?"
The man nodded, but didn't say anything. Chelly was satisfied at his response
"Good choice. Since you're giving me a nice performance, I'll watch personally until you're finished with them. Don't disappoint me"
Chelly then turned around and walked towards the door, as she reach the door however, the man said to her
"Miss Chelly. You will die a gruesome death someday. You will meet evil that you'd better off knowing"
Chelly opened the door as she glance back at the man. She smiled brightly
"Is that so? I don't think so"
Then, she walked out and closed the door
