Bab 28: Tear of Oizys

After walking for a while they came to a dead-end of one of the streets. "Not again!" Vivian and Catherine complained in sync. Everyone thought that they were again lured into some trap. But then suddenly, that guy jumped on Aeneas saying, "How the hell does you that name. I spent years ensuring that name gets forgotten. Did the emperor send you to kill me or what? Answer me!" He asked Aeneas with tears in his eyes. "Why would you spend years changing Nuae's identity? And no, no one sent us." Aeneas replied with a bit serious tone. "Ohh why means? I am the infamous Nuae, the sacred swordsman, the hope of people, hero oh hero, call me anything that suits." Listening to this everyone's expression went pale. "no no no no, Nuae is a girl, right? You aren't that? Stop with your bullshit and tell us where is she!" Aeneas grabbed his collar and asked in anger. "Funny! I told you I am Nuae. Even I hate the fact that my name is of some girl. See this crest, it's not something you get, it's what I earned through my work." He replied Aeneas while pointing towards the crest on his coat. Looking at the crest Vivian replied with awe, "It surely is Lamorra's crest, but seems different. Why is there a crow on your crest?" She asked him out of curiosity. But instead of him, Aeneas replied, "Because that's the crest of Killer Fraction of the forces of Lamorra kingdom." He put him down. "So you really are Nuae! We need some safe place to talk, but it's about demons and stuff." Theodore said so looking at Nuae. "Demons! Finally, some worthy bugs to kill!" He replied and continued, "Then let's get to that tavern then." "Are you mad? There will be many people there. Only stupid ones would consider going to such crowded places." Vivian complained to which Nuae replied with a laugh, "Missy, it's the only place where no one gives a shit about anyone. No one will eavesdrop or interfere. Everyone is unknown to anyone there. That's Noore's tavern for you." Saying this he pushed on a brick in the wall and suddenly a flash of light covered everyone's sight. In a flash, they were sucked into the wall and thrown out inside the tavern. "What? You thought it'd be just like any other ordinary taverns?" Nuae laughed it off. After they entered everyone was looking at the surroundings suspiciously, "Hey! Aren't taverns supposed to be loud and dirty and chaotic? How come this place is so quiet and clean?" Theodore asked after hesitating a bit. To his question Nuae pointed towards women at the corner of the tavern, who was holding a guy to his collar and giving him a thrashing, "You come again with no money and shout like a baby chicken, I'm gonna skin you and feed you to the wild boars in the back whom I'll serve to every table you shouted. Now get the hell out of here." Hearing this all of the people felt a chill. "That's Noore, and no one messes with her. Let's get this way." Saying this he led the way towards a cabin. "Hey, Noore! Got some guests. Will ya come and see if they are treated well." To his shout, she replied with a shout, "Piss off!" And entered the kitchen, closing the doors with a loud bang! "Now, no one will interfere with us here. What is it that you want to talk about?" Naue asked to which Theodore replied, "We are looking for a dungeon in Northern territory, someplace where we can find something similar to this." Saying this he pulled out the first shard he received from Eleanor. "No way I'm gonna help you with that! It is a bloody shard and not any normal one to that. This is 'Tear of Oizys!"
