“You can choose, want a smooth way or.we can use a serious way and a little rough here”.
The question Mark is in serious mode with his Artifact weapon sounds not a joke.
Of course Kaito took it seriously and he was ready to pull the sword at his waist.
But just touching the hilt of his sword, the weapon in Mark's hand disappeared and his eyes turned a beautiful blue back.
“Just kidding, don't take it seriously. I'm a person who has a high sense of humor and is very loving the world of comedy including the comedy of the drama of life, so do not be taken heart ya”
“.....” Kaito directly looked at Mark with his cynical face. “Where is the threat to injure someone it is used as a joke”
“There. I just did it, didn't I?”
“.....” Now Kaito changes his mind about Mark.
In his heart, he began to comment.
‘Strong people, fools and lunatics have a level of humor that is far beyond normal human reason. Either I don't understand them or indeed they can't be understood by normal thoughts?’
‘But obviously, I am grateful not to have to fight seriously with him. Honestly speaking, if my ability is measured by numbers, then it is only half the perfect value of hers’
A Kaito could even judge that Mark's figure was stronger than him. Even if you don't know if it's true or not.
Mark did not give a smile and only stood up after his weapon disappeared again. To break this deadlock and silence, Kaito began to ask Mark.
“So, what information do you want to get from me? Honestly speaking, I have no useful information for a Special Division Captain of the Magic Council like you because I'm new”
“I know you and Xenon know each other” Mark directly shot Kaito with this statement
“....” Kaito is silent
“I've heard from Xenon. He told me all about you, even though I didn't know everything. At least, your meeting and the fact that he is your magic teacher has been known to everyone”
Kaito began to scrunch his forehead.
‘It turns out Xenon told them. He himself said that no one should know. It turns out that the labile is not only Ryou but Xenon also ya’
Mark seemed to have a guess and he said it back.
“Do not misunderstand. It was not Xenon who voluntarily said it, but he was urged by the girls from the Magic Council members. He wouldn't have said it if it wasn't veiled by all those girls”
“Lid by woman apparently. I understand that women can't be defeated when it comes to group play. I understand, thank you for straightening my mind”
Kaito immediately remembered the clothing store in the residential area at ‘world noon’ that time.
‘Talking about women, I so remember they could be so sadistic fighting over clothes at the clothing store that time until the scenery felt like a forest. Turns out in ‘world’ this is also so’
‘I am grateful to date, not to meet a group of strange women or girls with monster-like nature in the wild’
‘From now on, I am grateful to meet people whose nature looks more like Ryou than look like the scary women’
Kaito did not realize that his prayer was making his luck level go up and down like a bitcoin chart, although it is not yet known whether bitcoin in that place exists or not.
Back to Kaito and Mark's problem now.
Mark started asking Kaito.
“Do you guys probably know something about the case we are investigating now?”
“Case?”
Mark started to look cynical, “Xenon said that he only told you a little since you met at the scene when he was ordered to execute, but to be honest I don't trust”
“My instructions are sharper than you think and I'm sure that at least, you already know about the things we're facing. For example, about the villain or his destination”
Mark actually already knew who the mastermind was and the purpose of the beastman he had captured. But the direction of this question is more to something else.
‘If this dimensional explorer is involved with this case, it's possible that we can't let him live now’
‘The information I have is still limited to the purpose of Earl sending intruders. But, his original purpose.I'm not sure’.
Kaito thinks that Mark doesn't know anything. Moreover, he remembered his conversation with Xenon last night.
[You guys, if I tell you this information in exchange for the information that the captains have, will it be a problem for you?]
An idea pops up in Kaito's brain.
‘If this Mark Vermillion before me has the information Xenon needs, maybe I can get something. Not bad’
‘Again, this will help Xenon as well. Coincidentally in front of me is Mark so it's best to take advantage of this moment’
Kaito's filing a condition now.
“I'll give you the information I have. Regardless of it being the same information as yours or not, I only have it in my hands now. How?”
Mark agrees, “No problem. Think of it as a revelation to convince myself”
Kaito gets his chance points, “I want you to give me the information you have as well”
“....” Mark is silent
Kaito again said his wish.
“The information I gave you could be the same as you and you don't mind it. That also goes with the information you may have now”
“But there is no guarantee that we both have different information from each other, right? If I'm the only one telling you, it's not fair”
“I also want you to tell me information. It doesn't need all but you have to say honestly”
It didn't take long, Mark agreed.
“On behalf of Marquis Vermillion, Mark Vermillion.this will be an official exchange of information and whatever I say, all of it is honest without any lies. Little or much information I give you, will not change the truth of the information”
Kaito smiled and nodded.
‘Thank God, Xenon. I can help you. Sorry to have preceded you but we'll share this information together. I hope the information from Mark Vermillion is information that is not yet owned by us’ Kaito hopes in his heart
The exchange started with Kaito. He started with the most basic information.
“The ones doing this are the two races that were considered damned in the past”
“Ras? What do you mean?”
“You are not aware that each case has something in common with the perpetrator?”
“True actors?”
Kaito immediately muttered in his heart, ‘I thought he was unconscious. Just like Xenon, even a strongest magic user also did not escape from sealing magic and memory manipulation’
Mark was right, Kaito did know something and it was something he was not aware of.
“What do you mean by the two races who were the culprit?”
“Beastman.it was the perpetrator of the kidnapping that occurred in the western region first time. I heard the story from Xenon that you received a letter that when opened contained the heads of those who lost”
“....” Mark is silent
He could not hide his surprise from his wide-open eyes.
‘Their Xenon actually told all that. The little information Xenon said turned out not to be the same as the little I thought’
Kaito continued his explanation.
“If traced back, remember who are the perpetrators you have executed”
“The person we executed was a dark organization and they were all.” Mark was silent instantly. He just realized it, “Beastman and..half-elf...”.
“Tepat”
Now, Mark seems to have missed something important. He had just realized that something as easy as that could be ignored.
“The culprits are beastman and half-elf. They cooperate want to conspiracy assisted by insiders in the kingdom”
Now, Mark gets a valuable piece of information that he forgets even if it's obvious.
