Chapter 98: Don’t do it II
Lyra was looking at Vacuse quietly from her place. If people didn’t know Vacuse, they would think he was speaking the truth and was a youth that was filled with the hot-blooded vision of glory and whatnot.
But Lyra knew that things weren’t that simple. At first, she thought Vacuse was nothing more than an intelligent beast, but she had learned that he was far from that.
He was a scheming monster that always had a backup plan for most things. So, she took great interest in what Vacuse was doing now.
Vacuse looked from Captain Mera to Kagerou. "If you want me to be safe and all, why don’t you try and look into that map to figure out what it’s all about?"
The woman growled as she turned to Kagerou.
Kagerou was frowning. "How do you draw this map? I can’t make sense of all of this."
That was the truth. The way that Vacuse drew the map was more like sprawling on paper without direction and points. Kagerou eventually shook his head and handed the map over to the Captain.
The Captain took one look at it and smiled sweetly. "It seems Lord Vacuse didn’t know the way to the Dungeon. I can’t trust your judgment on this, and so with the authority given to me by the Dragon Lord, I am going to prevent you from going!"
Vacuse frowned. He was finding things more troublesome than he expected. He didn’t foresee that the Captain might stand in his way, and she was logical and right in doing so as well.
But he wasn’t that worried. The plan of raiding that particular Dungeon must happen by any means, since it was crucial for the next step of his plan concerning the Orcs.
