Chapter 151 - A Big Trouble That I Didn't Want To Deal With 1_2

"Soul Eater and not Soul Breaker?" Dishonesty asked in a low voice.

The fur all over my body stood up because of her manner. Why does she look so scary now? Ah! Did she just say Soul Breaker?

"Do you want me to have Soul Breaker?"

"Yes, but unfortunately you didn't get it, isn't that true?"

"There's no mistake, I got Soul Eater."

Dishonesty sighed. She sat back down and leaned back in her chair. Closing her eyes, the Flugel woman showed her disappointment.

For today, I saw her showing pretty much of her expression.

"Soul Eater is not a bad Unique Skill. Thanks to it, I was able to eat the soul and take a little power from the soul," I explained and tried to make the woman feel better.

"I know that," she said with a little care.

The attitude she showed and this situation made me feel uncomfortable. It was as if what was happening now was the same as when parents had high hopes for their kids to pass the final exam. And when the kid didn't graduate, she or he faced disappointment from her or his parents.

I was the kid and what's worse, I didn't do anything but I felt guilty.

All these strange feelings irritate me.

"Really, what do you want from me? Why should I get Soul Breaker? And can you stop being disappointed with me because of what you did!?" I puffed my cheeks and turned my face the other way.

As for Dishonesty, the woman blinked before making a faint smile. "I'm sorry." She said to me.

"So, what's the hidden matter behind all this?"

"I just want you to destroy a soul of the Fallen God or better known as the Evil God."

"Evil God?"

"Long story short, they are gods tainted by Scourge. The Evil God only understood destruction and murder. We can't negotiate or coexist with them. I'm sure, you know, the Evil God is the source of the Scourge itself, right?"

I nodded. "I know about Evil God and Scourge from Ark Fantasy Online. And can't they be killed by heroes? I remember the Main Quest, Save the World, where the heroes kill the Evil Gods."

"The heroes only capable of sealing the Evil Gods and unfortunately, there are no Quests in this world." Dishonesty shook her head.

"What do you mean there are no Quests? That was indeed true, there were some Quests Giver that couldn't be found. But, in this world, there were still Quests Giver. I still remember clearly, Vier and the others received the Quest, The Titans from Gaia, The Goddess of Life after they obtained the Gaia Blood Gem. Moreover, I met Ronove, an old woman who has Quest the Pitiful Necromancer. Although I didn't accept her Quest, she indeed had that Quest. And now, that old woman is with me here, in Uncertainty."

Again, Dishonesty blinked more and faster than usual when she saw me. Should she be surprised every time I say something?

"You always say things that are harsh to believe. Regarding this Quest Giver and the Quests they have, I want you to tell me everything you know but we both know, it's going to take hours. So! Stand up, Eclaite." Dishonesty left her chair.

The woman stood next to the table, she made a hand gesture telling me to approach her. I took a deep breath and approached her. In a matter of seconds, we went standing face to face.

"Okay, what should I do now?"

"Just think about all the things related to Quest Giver and Quest don't think about anything else. I want to copy all the knowledge about those things. Are you ready?" Dishonesty asked. At the same time, she raised her hand to touch the right and left sides of my forehead.

"Wait! Wait a minute! Copying my knowledge? How do you do that? Is this method safe? I'm not going to feel any pain, right?"

"As long as you don't fight this spell, you won't feel anything. Now, just thought the things I want to know, otherwise I'll probably know your secret memories."

"Wait, can we use another method!?"

"Too late," she told me. 

A moment later, darkness enveloped my vision. What happened just now is like an episode where someone turns off the lights in a room suddenly.

"Hoo... I didn't think you'd do such a thing with that Fallen Elf girl. It looks like you guys are pretty close and you're enjoying your night." Dishonesty's voice echoed in this darkness.

And "huh!? What kind of memories do you see!?" I asked Dishonesty who knows where.

Don't tell me, she saw the memory of my fun night with Ruciel! That's extremely dangerous! And extremely embarrassing!

"Don't look at someone's memories like that! That's personal information!" I screamed in this darkness.

"Well... I didn't do it on purpose. Those memories just come to me because you didn't think what I want to know. And oh! I didn't expect that your first love in this world was your cruel father."

"Don't remind me of that jerk! And Dishonesty! Stop looking at my memories!" The screams I made just now filled with hate.

"Okay, I'm sorry, don't get angry. Now, can you think about the Giver Quest and the Quest you remember? If you constantly delay this, inevitably, I will see your other memories."

"All right," I said, then took a breath.

Then, I concentrated and started to remember all the Giver Quests along with the Quests I remembered. I even went to great lengths to remember some Of the Giver Quests and Quests that I forgot. All of that I did to prevent dishonesty from seeing my other memories.

I don't know how long time passed before Dishonesty said, "that's enough." And the darkness that enveloped me disappeared.

I blinked as I returned to the stone gazebo. My cheeks bulged when I saw Dishonesty. With "huff." I turned my face away. I refused to look and talk to her.

On the other hand, Dishonesty makes giggles.

She made me even more irritated.

"Don't get angry," she whispered after she hugged me from behind. "When you're Vier, you look cool when you're angry like this. But when you become Eclaite, you look incredibly cute."

I don't care.

"You're so cute," she said as she played with my cheeks.

Since she was getting more and more annoying, I completely ignored her.

"Don't ignore me and take it easy, I'll keep your secret. More than that, haven't I apologized?" She let go of her arms and walked away from me.

"... Well. I forgive you but the information about Quest Giver and the Quests is not free," I said when I saw her eyes.

"Of course, what do you want as rewards?"

"I want—" you to dispel Diana's curse and give me some weapons. I wanted to say all that but I remember, I got a Unique Skill from Dishonesty. 

Unique Skill is what made me agree with Dishonesty's request. Being annoyed and a little angry, I said something unreasonable.

"After I think about it again, you don't have to give me anything."

"Oh, why is that?"

"You've already given me a Unique Skill."

"They were a failure, you don't have to count it. The knowledge to awaken the gods you gave me is precious. Now, what do you want? Don't say something like I don't need rewards."

Dishonesty looks serious and as she says, she will not accept any form of refusal from me. So, in the end, I told her what I wanted.

"Dispelling a curse and you want weapons? That's it?"

"Don't say, that's it! Dispelling a curse can change a person's life. As for the weapons I want, all of it must be Rare Grade and I asked for ten weapons."

"Yes, I am aware of that. It still doesn't mean anything to me and to be honest, I thought, you should ask for some Legendary Grade Weapons."

"Don't exaggerate, Legendary Grade weapons are not things that can be obtained easily. I wouldn't ask for such unreasonable rewards. Oh yes, why do you need the knowledge to revive the gods?"

"Because the world needs them."

"Then why would you want to destroy the Evil God's soul?"

"Because the world doesn't need them."

The answer given by the woman made one end of my lips tremble. "Are you teasing me?"

"Of course not. But, I just don't want you to know what I want to do and the problems I deal with when you can't do anything to help me." She walked up and sat in her chair then drank her tea.

I mimicking Dishonesty. Sit in my chair and drink my tea. Silence enveloped us until I said, "About this Soul Eater, are you sure that this Unique Skill doesn't have any uses that you need?"

"You can destroy a soul with that Unique Skill but it won't do any good if you get the skill that the soul possesses," she explained as she picked up a cookie.

"But the explanation of the Soul Eater, claims that I will only gain a little power from the soul I eat. And I consider the powers referred in here as Basic Statistics instead of Skills. And even if I get a Skill, I can turn it into an Exp for the skill I have."

Dishonesty froze when she wanted to bite her cookie. Her eyes were on me again.. And same as before, her sharp gaze terrified me.
