"Where did they go?!" Serena's angry voice roared in the vicinity after Dalvine and Heepha left.
She had red eyes of rage and indignation, which burned like two small solar eclipses as she constantly used her perception to inspect every nook and cranny of the planet with her majestic aura.
"Don't get tired; this bastard is in an inaccessible place for us, the primordials." The next moment, Sabrina appeared ten meters from her with blue eyes.
"Hey, sis! You really pissed me off this time!" Her shrill voice resounded in the vicinity as she erased the distance between them, instantly appearing in front of Sabrina with a long scarlet spear.
"What do you plan to do? Fight against me?"
"I swear by our links that I'd kill you if you don't tell me where this motherfucker is!" She points the spear a few centimeters from Sabrina's throat, who does not even frown.
"What if I refuse?" Calmly asked Sabrina with a slightly sarcastic smile.
"In this case, go to hell!" While retorting these words with fierce eyes, her spear directly stabs Sabrina's throat!
But the next moment, she frowns, not feeling resistance on the tip of her spear!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk! What took you so long?" At the same time, Sabrina's voice resonated a hundred meters from Serena as she scolded a woman with sky-blue hair and eyes almost of the same color.
Seeing this woman with Sabrina, Serena became even crazier as her silhouette became a mirage due to her explosive speed.
-CLANG!
But instead of Sabrina, it was the other woman who was none other than Linn, who had countered Serena's spear with a blade created by a spatial fragment.
"Get out of there, Linnaella!" She retorted, moving away from her with surprised eyes when she saw Linn's power that exceeded her expectations.
"I only came because I have a favor with your master. So stop scolding me. Otherwise, I'll go back to where I was!" Instead of answering Serena, Linn retorted by looking at Sabrina with dull eyes.
"Well, now that you're here, take care of her during my absence."
"Huh? What are you talking ab--
"She wants to find the person who stole something that supposedly belongs to her. So settle this between you; I have other concerns." While saying these words, she vanished in front of Linn without letting her understand what was really happening.
"..." Seeing Sabrina disappear in front of her as if she were fleeing from Serena, Linn had an indescribable expression, not to describe her as an idiot who let herself be fooled by Sabrina.
"How long do you plan to make me wait?"
"Huh? What do you want too?" She asked with confused eyes.
Seeing Linn's confused expression, Serena remained silent with a bad feeling. But she did not display this expression on her face.
"Stop pretending to be ignorant and bring me to where you were! I'm sure this bastard is there too!"
'?? Sigh, it's only now that I see how weak she is. But yet, her arrogance is of an indescribable level. Sigh, I was probably like her.' She said to herself with an ironic smile.
"What makes you laugh--!!
Before Serena finished her remarks, her environment suddenly changed, and she found herself in the middle of a large living room with Linn, who was sitting on one of the armchairs.
'What? She teleported me without me noticing?! Since when has this girl become so powerful?!' She whispered in her thoughts with wide eyes because of her dizzying surprise that she could no longer hide.
"Where are we? And where is this bastard?!" She finally asked between her clenched teeth and confused eyes, unlike before.
"Sigh, I don't know who you're talking about. If you're not stupid, you must realize that Sabrina fooled us. All she had told me was to join her on your planet while I was busy. As for where we are, I think you should already know." She said while taking her glass of spiritual wine that she had not finished drinking before being interrupted by Sabrina's convocation.
"... Decidedly, you have become even more arrogant than I expected. Even if you managed to get rid of Yemina's poison, you think it's enough for me--
"I have no intention of wasting my time with you. I have already warned Sylvia of your coming. And unlike me, who is ignorant of the latest news because of my sunstroke, she can help you. Just be a little patient; she will arrive soon." She said, interrupting Serena in the middle of her sentence.
"..."
On Serena's side, even if she was annoyed by Linn's arrogance, who looked up at her as if her nothing more than an ant, she did not dare to attack her.
'These people are different from before. And they are all linked to this bastard who influenced them. How mysterious and unique is he? Does he hide his power? I already knew that my sister had been obsessed with him since he didn't wake up. Then he suddenly woke up and changed everyone around him. Even my sister, a fury who was only thinking about fighting, left me in the plan for the first time, even though I started a fight with her.' She said to herself while sitting on the sofa before Linnaella.
She then looked into the starry blue eyes of the latter, who nonchalantly tasted her spiritual wine without caring about her or what she could do to her.
'But the strangest thing is this woman. She not only managed to get rid of a deadly poison, but she also managed to exceed her limits. Surely because of one of Lindra's primordial elixir-- Sigh, that can't be the cause. If Lindra could make such elixirs, she would not hide them from the others. Because all she was interested in was the gratitude and admiration of others for her and her creations. But what's the reason?' She wondered and continued in her thoughts with frowns.
"Ah, she's here," Linn said, looking towards the main door of the guest lounge where she was currently with Serena.
Almost simultaneously, Sylvia entered the living room with wrinkles before her eyes by dint of being overworked by Sabrina, who constantly left her all the jobs and the management of the kingdom in the absence of Alvine, who never had, never, never ensured his role as a sovereign.
"Sigh, and now she's sending another problem bag!" These were the only words she uttered in a robotic voice after crossing Serena's eyes.
'No matter from what angle I look at things, I don't like this crazy woman who is the queen of unpredictable people! But why the hell did Sabrina bring this crazy woman here?! If I had known she was summoning Linn just for that, I would never have conveyed her message!' She thought as she sat next to Linn on the sofa.
"And what does she want too? I guess you didn't come here for a courtesy visit, am I wrong?" She asked, placing one leg on the other.
Her question was direct and was asked so that both could answer her without her having to waste more time.
"Apparently, she is looking for someone who stole her so-called possession, if I repeat Sabrina's words." Linn's neutral tone resonated beside her after hearing her question.
"Hm? Someone who has stolen something from you? Does this mean that you do not know the identity of this person? I ask this question because people who can perform such prowess without being captured by you are rare. But above all, why did you come to get this so-called thief here?" She quickly asked to put an end to this case.
"..."
"Linn, can you help me watch the queen while waiting for me to finish my tasks?" She then asked when she saw Serena's silence.
"Sigh, I'm not a Babysitter, Sylvia."
"Among everyone, you're the only one who does nothing! So stop being lazy for once and move your butt to fucking help me!" She shouted these words with full lungs despite sitting next to Linn.
'Sigh, she finally ended up breaking too. First of all, unknown invaders, the absence of Alvine, followed by all kinds of agitation. Sigh; even if Alvine did nothing special, he makes them believe that his only presence was like a kind of tonic for them. And among all, Sabrina is the most agitated, to the point of asking me to bring a potential enemy to her master's planet without even considering the consequences that the latter could cause.' She said to herself while putting her glass on the table with a faint sigh.
"I can't blame you for being so frustrated, Miss Sylvia; Anywhere, I believe everyone is on this planet. But I hope it won't push you to make strange and crazy decisions." She spoke these words that seemed to be words of encouragement for her as she went out into the living room, leaving Sylvia alone with Serena.
"And so? Do you decide to answer me, or do you want to keep quiet? I'm not free enough to take care of you any longer. I have too many things to do." Sylvia spoke in an impatient tone.
"...This bastard had long hair--
"Long black hair, red eyes, and a boring smile on his lips make us want to hit him to death." Before Serena finished her explanations, Sylvia continued her sentence.
"Yes! Where could I find it--
"Don't get tired. It is not you who will find it, but he who will come to you. But if you want to have a better chance of finding him, then stay here for a while. I am convinced that he will come back soon." She explained once again after guessing Serena's following words.
-Dark frown.
"Do you want me to stay here even though I'm no longer one of yours?" She asked with suspicion.
"I don't care about your mindset; if it's Lady Rina's decision, then it's up to her alone to take responsibility for your actions. And honestly, you're not qualified to be a threat. But on the other hand, you're more than qualified to put your hand to the paw!" Sylvia retorted by getting up on the couch to go out.
At the same time, Serena had a green expression of indignation and a red expression of frustration, absolutely not believing that she could be insulted and treated like this, even by Sylvia.
But the latter suddenly stopped and looked at Serena, who was always stunned by the strange actions of her former companions.
"Instead of sitting there and doing nothing, give a hand to the healers."
"Huh? Do you want me to help you?! Why would I do such a thing?" She asked, no longer knowing how to react to everyone's strangeness.
"What a stupid question! It's because I don't want to see another lazy man like Linn around! And I also have two pieces of advice to give you just out of sympathy.
-First, forget this guy if you want to live a peaceful life. I won't tell you more, but you will soon know what I'm talking about when you arrive in the healers' department.
-Secondly, if you intend to cause us trouble, forget immediately. Because, unlike Lady Rina, I no longer see you as one of ours but just a stranger who came to attack us. And unlike Sabrina, I'd kill you without the slightest hesitation!" She retorted with an imposing aura that left Serena speechless for the umpteenth time.
Following this warning, Sylvia slams the door behind her, leaving Serena alone in the living room without worrying about what she could do during her absence.
"Am I in another parallel world? Why does everyone seem so different and so...?" She wondered with curiosity at her climax!
