Sunny pov.
He walked through the outer settlement, heading towards the meeting place, his mind a chaotic jungle.
'Arthur has the memory, so the expedition is not necessary, meaning they don't need to hire me which means that dammed knight won't be killed.'
As he walked, he pondered; he wanted the fallen devil dead. How to do it now was a mystery.
Finally, he entered the meeting room and sat down.
Now that everyone had gathered, Nephiss started speaking.
"The expedition is canceled" She said simply, staring right at Sunny.
His eyes slightly widened, a glare already forming as he turned to Cassie.
Aa Effie shot up in a confused protest. Nephis continued,
"The memory isn't there anymore, instead it is somewhere in the dark city."As a slight murmur spread, Caster stood up.
"Then we just go get it right now?" He questioned.
Nephis shook her head in the negative a slight frown on her delicate face.
"The memory is held by a person and only Sunny here" She pointed at him" knows where and how to get it without bloodshed".
As everyone looked at him, Sunny just gazed around and burst out in a small chuckle.
"Yeah, no it won't be that easy"
As he was greeted by frowns and scowls, he continued.
"The memory is held by Arthur, some of you might know him as the second-ranked in the academy."
Caster's eyes widened, a frown already forming, he knew how strong Arthur was, and after all this time, he would have grown exponentially stronger.
Nephis nodded, recognizing the name; she had sparred with him, and his swordsmanship was on par with her own.
Cassie sat quietly, her hands slightly clenched under the table.
She knew that this was not supposed to happen; she knew that something had changed in the plan of fate.
Then Sunny started speaking again.
"From what I know, he arrived in the hollow mountains and made his way here after a year or so.o"At this revelation, multiple pairs of eyes widened, some even had their mouth agape.
Effie whistled, a small mischievous grin forming on her face. "Sounds like a big shot".
Everyone ignored her, then Sunny continued, "and he is the right-hand man of Gemma".
Now frowns and scowls returned, murmors spread. Now they were certain, the memory wouldn't be easy to obtain.
Then there was a commotion outside the door, after a few seconds the door opened, and the guards stationed outside were unconscious and on the ground,
It was Arthur.
"oh hello there" He greeted waving his hand.
