Chapter 92 92 – So Called Chosen Ones

“You have to understand your friend, Yua. Elise doesn’t want to argue with you. It’s just that her family isn’t full of love.” Raymund explained to the walking kunoichi. “It’s unlike your family, who definitely want you to succeed.”

“Really?” Yua raised an eyebrow. “There are parents who don’t love their children? I find that hard to believe, sir.”

“Well, you just don’t know. I could have told you about Elise’s family, but I think she’d better do it herself.”

Yua shrugged, then knocked on the large door in one corner of the Algernon family’s resort. The door opened in just a few seconds. Lilian poked her head out and looked around, then motioned for Yua to come in.

Perhaps of all the parts of the resort that Yua had seen, Madam Algernon’s room was the most luxurious. The marble statues, the shiny urns, and the giant bed with the silk bed sheets made the room feel cramped. Even though the actual size of the room was big. Maybe people can play mini football there.

“My servant has already handed over your message to me, Miss Yua.” Lilian walked to the center of the room and fiddled with her fingers. “I have read it. I think your idea is excellent.”

“So,” Yua folded her arms across her chest, looking at the woman’s back. “Would you be willing to lend me that thing, madam?”

Lilian pressed her palm to her forehead. “If it is in my possession, I will gladly give it to you. However, it is not something that can be obtained easily, Miss Yua. I couldn’t even get past them myself.”.

“What do you mean, madam?” Yua approached the noble.

“There.” Lilian pointed to the giant window in the room. “It’s a warehouse that stores my husband’s unique collectibles. I’m sure the thing you referred to is stored there. Unfortunately, the guard is very tight, and they are the chosen ones.”

“Well, I’ve had experience with so-called chosen ones.” Through the glass window, Yua looked at the large building in the distance. The building does not use tiles on the roof but solid concrete. So, the methods like in the demon village back then would be useless. “I think I can try to infiltrate that building.”

“You don’t understand, Miss Yua. They are….”

“You doubt us, the god servants, madam?” Yua cracked a smile.

Lilian flinched and widened her eyes, then bowed. “I’m sorry, Miss! I didn’t mean to insult you and your master! I’ll let you infiltrate the building! I will not stop you!”

Yua gave a wink at Raymund, who immediately praised her. “Good, Yua.”

“So, what is the shape of that thing, madam?” Yua asked again.

“Well, that thing looks different to each person. I saw it as a tiny sword, about the size of a human palm.” Lillian took a deep breath. “So finding it is tricky. I’ve never been inside the warehouse myself, so I can’t pinpoint its location.”

“It’s okay, madam.” Yua approached the window to see the warehouse building more clearly. “Sir Raymund had already given me a plan. However, I would like to ask a few things of you, madam.”

***

Yua hobbled like a drunk person. Her right hand held a wine bottle, while the other held two metal bottles. The kunoichi came to two men in full uniforms guarding the warehouse door.

“Hi, gentlemen.” The woman greeted in a slightly indistinct voice like someone raving but still used a seductive sigh. “I’ve always been in awe of dashing men like you guys…. Would you please accompany me for a drink?”

The two guards gulped, staring at Yua’s cleavage, which looked like it was especially shown to them.

One of them cleared his throat. “Sorry, but we’re on duty.”

Yua hugged that guard’s hand, letting the metal cup in her hand fall. “In that case, I would love to see what’s inside…. I heard that the collections of Lord Algernon here are magnificent.”

Now it was Raymund who cleared his throat.

“Sorry, miss…” The guard was starting to sound nervous. “We can’t do that….”

“Come on, make an exception this time.” Yua pouted. “I will give you a gift that you will never forget.”

Yua lowered the part of the garment covering her chest, triggering Raymund to clear his throat even louder.

The guard’s face started to turn red, and his partner immediately raised an eyebrow.

“Eh… Oh…. Well, maybe this time I’ll make an exception.”

The other guard shouted. “Mate, what the fuck!? You can’t be reckless like that! Are you insane!?”

“Shut up, or I’ll report the indecent act you and one of Mrs. Algerton’s personal assistants did!” The first guard snorted in annoyance. “Give your friend a chance to have fun! I’ve never felt the warmth of a woman! My face is not as handsome as yours, you know!”

The second guard snorted. “Hey, don’t bring that up!”

“Trained people, my ass,” Raymund grumbled. “I didn’t think it would be this easy.”

Raymund’s plan was actually more complex. It all started with stealing the key to the warehouse entrance, then Mona, who was hiding not far away, would distract the guards.

Yua moved her index finger to the surface of the first guard’s chest. “Huh? I think you are quite handsome, sir. My heart flutters near you.”

The first guard was grinning with an increasingly red face. “Okay, let’s go inside the warehouse.”

He took out his key to open the two-foot-high iron door.

“Sir…” Yua called out to the second guard while putting her index finger to her lips, giving her a seductive look. “Don’t you want to come too? Isn’t it cold outside?”

The guard didn’t answer and looked the other way, though with a red face too.

“Yua…” Raymund cleared his throat for the third time. “I know you want to distract the second guard, which can also be a hindrance later. However, what you are doing now is enough.”

Meanwhile, Elise and Mona, lurking from behind the bushes far away, could only exchange glances. Yua had started to enter the warehouse with the first guard.

“Stay there, Elise.” Raymund sighed. “Maybe Mona’s time to shine is just being delayed.”
