Kapitel 27: CHAPTER 26: THOSE WHO WORKS BEHIND

Oslo, norway 9:07 AM

You will see two middle-aged people who are both attractive sitting in the cafe close to the Oslo Palace. One of them has purple hair, and the other is a woman with silver hair and black eyes. They are both secretly monitoring the Oslo Palace, where there are numerous guards stationed at the gate. These two are Rhonoven and Angeline, who were in the midst of the mission that Elyze had assigned to them. In order to easily sneak up to the palace, their strategy is to observe the staffs for the time being and memorize every possible route inside.

suddenly, a waitress came to them with a smile on her face and asked them using a norwegian language, "good morning maam and sir, what would you like to order?"

rhonoven just put an elegant smile and replied in fluent norwegian language, "just a two coffee, please."

the waitress flush a little when she catch the glimpse of the face of this stunning couple. unlike the other norwegian complexion who have straight blonde hair, blue eyes and tall figures, this couple were completely different from them. they are the right person to be called as 'near from being perfect' in the eyes of people.

so the waitress couldn't help but to ask, "you're so fluent in speaking norwegian language, sir. how long were you staying here?"

"rhonoven just smile to her plainly, "my wife and I just take some vacation, we were originally from england."

the waitress just cover his lips out of surprise, ".. Oh my."

she was just about to ask her again when the manager of the coffee shop yell at her, so she couldn't help but smile awkwardly, "then, please enjoy your stay, maam and sir."

rhonoven just nod at him with a smile before the waitress leave them, meanwhile, angeline who was beside him just give him a glare so rhonoven couldn't help but to scratch his cheek.

"Come on, angeline, that waitress is too young, surely you're not thinking that I like her, right?"

"hmmp, you're a player, who knows.. you might date her."

"we already have a son you know, why would I date her?"

"you're poisonous."

"like I'm saying, you're already my wife."

angeline just pouted inwardly and still looking at him suspiciously before drink the water Infront of them, but not long after, she just sigh and glance at the oslo palace again.

"and then? how are we going to sneak inside?"

rhonoven simply smile to her wife, " leave the rest to me." he then stand up as well as angeline as they started to leave in the cafe, later then, The waitress came back while humming cheerfully, but she soon stopped when she caught a whiff of roses, which made everyone inside the establishment feel a little lightheaded, including her. When she finally opened her eyes, she couldn't help but frown as she saw herself holding a tray with two cappuccinos on it.

"..eh? what's happening..? did someone ordered two cappuccino?"

she forgot what happened.

all of them forget the two mysterious couple who was sitting beside the glass window

earlier as if they didn't came in the shop. just like a magic.

and the only thing she saw is the mysterious red velvet rose on the table, while there's a red smoke rising up from it.

what could it be?

...

meanwhile, at rhonoven's direction, angeline couldn't help but to ask him out of curiosity, "What kind of tricks was that? how did they forget us?"

however, instead of answering her questions, rhonoven just put his index finger on his reddish lips and wink at his wife, "to become an excellent magician, you must be good at deception first. besides..."

"A magician will never reveal their tricks to anyone because if that happens, then that would be the end of their show."

...

London, england 8:10 AM

When Lovelle Collins drove off in his red McLaren P1, everyone was transfixed by her. Her pink hair was styled in a fishtail braid, and she was wearing a pair of round sunglasses. She is also carrying a peach-colored Balenciaga hourglass purse, pearl earrings, nude heels, a white blazer, a light pink satin blouse, and white slacks.

Leaning against her car, she soon took off her sunglasses, revealing her pink eyes as she smiled endearingly and looked toward the 10 story building that accommodated the London Metropolitan Police's headquarters. a man with black hair and black eyes emerged from the headquarters, Lovelle waved her hands in his direction.

"Sorry for being late, Ms. lovelle." caleb said in formal manner, but lovelle just pouted at him.

"seriously, I told you to remove the Miss everytime you're speaking with me!" she put her hand on his shoulder and pat him, so caleb's lips just twitched.

"g-got it, but please, your hands is to heavy, put it out."

lovelle just laugh, "sorry about that! then, shall we?" she asked so caleb just cough two times, he took the car keys from lovelle and press something as the door of the back seat open up, she then enter inside, while caleb just went on the driving seat and start the engine.

soon after, lovelle yawned while looking at the window, "sigh. do you think there's some interesting person in the academy where boss and the twins staying?" she asked out of the blue, so caleb give her a reply.

"... I did some investigation on this secret school, and it is in fact a school for elites and other illegal organization's heirs. They have seven locations worldwide, including ones in Europe, North America, South America, Africa, Australia, Asia, and even Antarctica. and the names of their schools represent the French national colors. The Bleu royale institute located in rovaniami, finland. Pappilion rouge academy from puebla, mexico. verde pappilion dé academia from orenburg, russia. Jaune University from Londrina, brazil. the grise international school in brisbane, Australia. the blanc institute from kigali, africa. and lastly, Pappilion noir academy which was located here in Uk, england and the main of the school.. P.N academy has been founded around 1800s by the black butterfly organization itself, thus, their branches grew and grew thanks to their huge connections who supported their covert works, and even until now, not even one of their members has been caught by the FBIs."

"well, I already anticipated that black butterfly is as influential as us, 'cause if not, the boss wouldn't having a hard time capturing them. even the deputy director of m16 like Edgar wilkinson only found few information about this organization."

the 'him' being as the commissioner of london metropolitan police was just an undercover, where in reality, he was actually the deputy director of m16, a secret agent. the same as caleb who's also an agent as well.

but of course, they are not working for the king, but for crystalle's. edgar is only loyal to her and he promise to himself that time when devian and crystalle help her that he would never betray the organization no matter what, obviously, it goes for caleb as well.

hearing her words, caleb's lips just twitched, "you better not tell that infront of Mr. wilkinson, he'll going to sulk for sure. though he acts like a child, he's very loyal to Miss crystalle and always wanted to do his best just for her."

"I know that, although, he's really noisy, especially when rohan was there, he keep scolding him."

for the second time, caleb let out a sigh once again. "we can't help it, rohan is a mess, but I don't know the reason why he turns out like that. well, if you ask me, he's way too worse than Ms. crystalle."

lovelle just laugh to caleb, and look at the window again meaningfully, " he's a pitiful child, he diagnose as a person with antisocial disorder, which is why rohan was so unpredictable. well, I think the phantom's knight doesn't differ to him but.. he's way too worse than us." lovelle then snickered.

caleb just give her a simple smile, "Although I don't know that much about what happened to miss crystalle's family, I could tell that it was rohan who got affected the most."

"you're right, the Moriarty family truly cares to our boss so much, especially rohan. he despise those people who keeps badmouthing about her."

they just keep talking about rohan and crystalle as well as their mission, until the city of london or even the buildings and any other structures started to become blurry and only the trees covering the sky which make the place and bushes as well as rocky roads can be seen around, a few minutes later, they already saw the huge modern villa that is similar to a castle 50 meters away from them that was at the top of the hill.

but they have to stop first Infront of the silver gate, where there are two guards guarding the gate, they knock at the window so caleb slightly opened it enough for his hands to fit in, he took something on his wallet, it was a black badge with the head of a serpent, a human body and dark blue eyes, while there are two daggers behind it's back crossing each other and holding a black baccara rose.

the guard squinted his eyes before step back, then after that, he spoke with him formally, "forgive me, I'll open the gate right away, mr. levistus."

the guard give a sign to another guard to open the gate, after that, caleb just close the door and started to drive again.

the black badge that he shows to them just now symbolizes that he's the leader of ars goetia, that his power was only second to the deadly seven. of course, the deadly seven also have a badge like him, and each of their badge are connected to the seven deadly sin's symbolism.

by the time they reach in the mansion, they saw a top floor of the contemporary exterior that has two "wings" that are separated by a void. a sun deck spreads out between the two volumes beneath the blue skies.

The home's outside lighting glows at night, and inner lighting sources shine through the glass walls that surround it.

A row of external lounge chairs are positioned along a patio by the outdoor pool with an infinite edge, and emerald landscaping surrounds the white concrete and timber home's facade in a green border.

Dramatic reflections of the structures overhang may be seen on the water's surface.

The extensive use of windows allows them to see right through the city of london and its breathtaking views when they approach the structure from the opposite way. The architecture takes the form of unobstructed passageways made of wood.

At the conclusion of a contemporary promenade made of concrete slabs, glass doors slide open to allow access. A large tree provides shade on one side and attracts attention to the top deck. More trees abound in the nicely manicured environment, which are surrounded by walls that are encased in timber and extend a friendly welcome. Retractable sliding doors connect the indoor and outdoor areas while allowing a refreshing breeze to pass through.

The landscaping around the home is highlighted by exterior lighting, from the trees and shrubs rooted in the garden to the potted plants placed on the concrete sun deck.

the butler was already waiting outside, so caleb stop the car Infront and open the door where lovelle was seating and laid his hands Infront of her, so lovelle just accept it.

"welcome to the pandemonium palace mr. levistus and ms. asmodeus, let me guide you to the living room first."

"please."

A modern living room with a grey style and a pleasantly wooded ceiling is reached by three steps. Behind the gray living room, a modern staircase design rises. Another lounge area, this one with an attached formal dining room, is situated parallel to the pool deck. Two light grey sofas are positioned across from one another in a conversational fashion in the spacious room, with two nested coffee tables and a spherical pouf bridging the space. Two sleek gray armchairs are facing the stairs.

In this tranquil area with transcendent views, a round coffee table pairs perfectly with a crescent-shaped sofa. On the other side of the partition, a lavish marble and wood kitchen is laid out in a galley configuration. Colorful masterpiece enhances the teal color of the sofa upholstery, and wood paneling provides a contoured mount.

few minutes later, the butler came holding a tray with a black invitation placed on it, after the meeting last night, rhonoven already informed the people in pandemonium palace that levistus and asmodeus will drop there to take the invitation left in here, thus, the butler, James, prepared everything beforehand.

"this is the invitation, miss." he said formally, so asmodeus just take it.

"thank you so much, james. "

the pandemonium palace is the phantom's knight second headquarters, where the high-rank members of ars goetia staying, and at the same time, it is a mansion that devian invest so much in, in other words, it was devian's mansion.

asmodeus slowly open the black invitation as a small smirk curve on his lips.

"...I'm looking forward to it."

...

Inside of the P.N academy, 1:00 pm in the afternoon

In front of him was a girl who was busy licking him and touching herself like a slut, but Rheyne, on the other hand, seems like he's not interested to her at all. He was sitting in the sofa of the B-class dormitory, naked, while smoking and gazing up at the ceiling. A tiny sneer started to emerge on his lips as he continued to look up.

"Its.. tonight, huh?"

...

"S-spare me, please—acckk!!"

"I-I didn't do anything-SKSKSS!!"

The sound of slashing can be heard, along with blood spurting, and you will see rohan in the back alley of class zero's building wearing a black hoodie covered in blood stains while there are four corpses beside him. He just sat on its top without caring about the red liquid sticking around his body at all and casually looked at his smartwatch.

"1:15 pm, guess I had to stop for now." he said with a sigh, he was suppose to stand up when he saw the white fennec fox beside him who's fur was stained by blood as well, glaring to him as though he's ready to devour him anytime, so rohan just smile and carried darius while lifting him above.

"are you ok?"

"obviously I'm not! are you crazy?!killing a student just because they touch me a little! were you so bored right now?!"

"but I don't like them tho."

"exactly. that's what makes you more crazy! and don't carry me! you're stained with filthy blood!"

rohan look at his hoodie, as his smiling face turns into cold and expressionless one, "you're right.. this is really disgusting, we should wash as soon as possible before their filth gets into us." he smiled and stand up before started to skipping from place to place like a child.

"ah, I'm so excited for tonight~"

on the other hand, darius couldn't help but to gaze at her seriously and said to himself, 'this guy.. something's really wrong with him.'

...

the sound of violin can be heard inside of the music room and there you will see a man with golden eyes and silver hair, which is keir, playing gracefully as though he's having a concert in the middle of the people, with full of emotions, while smiling meaningfully.

a few minutes later, he had finished playing, when someone applauded him, so he glance to the person and there he saw chauncey leaning at the door of music room with a smile on his face.

"Chauncey?what are you doing here?" keir asked with confusion.

"to hear your music! it so stressful these past few days! and only your music can calm my mind~" Chauncey replied while smiling to him brightly, but keir just pouted and lay down his violin.

"I lost an interest."

"hey! I'm really serious here! I'm your no.1 fan!"

"I don't need a fan."

"but I'm telling the truth here tho." he whispered while sighing, after that, he sat on the chair Infront of the piano and lean his hands against it. "I don't really understand, but these past few days, I often having a bad dream, due to that, I couldn't help but to felt uneasy as well. sigh."

keir just keep listening to his complains, "I felt like there was a god of death guarding me, ready to took my life anytime, am I just being paranoid?"

keir just raise his eyebrows, "And why are you telling this to me?"

for the second time, Chauncey pouted once again, "you're the only one I know who I can talk with! damion and Alexandra were so busy, rheyne must be at someone else's dormitory doing his own 'thing' with a girl, and the rest.. I don't know where they are, furthermore.. you're my close friend! can't you atleast listen to me?!"

he's tapping the piano and still complaining, while keir just keep gazing at him trying to read what's on his mind. it took him ten minutes before speaking and then let out a sigh.

"coming from a person who only thought his own survival.. well, nevermind, since I'm your 'closest friend' let me give you a piece of advice.. you should not trust the others just because they show you a little bit of help, they might betray you one day."

after he mention those words, keir started to walk outside of the music room with his hands was on his pocket, and when he's already far at the music room, he glance above the sky in solemn manner.

when keir first enter in the academy, it was Chauncey itself who approach him first, and he keeps following keir like a dog, eat with him, harvesting some points with him, teaming up with him etc. and thus, they started to hang out together until they become friends and rivals at the same time, but those things doesn't meant anything to keir at all. he don't trust anyone in this academy, and he never will. although he's known for his excellent socializing skills with other people, none of them interests him.

after all, he's a powerful being. making friends with humans doesn't benefit him at all.

"friend.. huh?" he smile bitterly, "let's see if you can still call me 'friend' once you found out that I was given a task to kill you."

meanwhile, inside of music room, Chauncey couldn't help but to frowned about what keir said to him earlier before shook his head.

"just what the hell is wrong with people these days?"
