-playlist of this chapter: Sunrise by Elise Magnefold--
...
Etter was still sitting in his place with his eyes closed. Ignore the confused Elle looking for Etter's Keys in all corners of the room. Elle didn't have a clue. It only further adds to Elle's upset race to Etter.
And all of a sudden.
A smile was hanging between the gaps in a larges golden lock with intricate carvings and seemed ancient. Elle pranked several times to make sure what she saw was the same as what she was trying to understand.
Is Etter playing Elle?
Or is Etter entertaining himself for getting substandard colleagues?
Etter was standing right in front of Elle. Etter plays a larges golden key carved with the ancient script without feeling any burden by smiling brightly.
Occasionally swing the key to the right or the left.
Facing Etter like that, Elle, still not fully understanding her position. Could only shake her head while swearing annoyedly in her heart. Fortunately, Elle does not have a history of heart disease. If only she had it, of course, Elle has been convulsing since then.
"This is the Etter Key, I mean." pointed to Etter at the end. Then Etter handed the key over Elle's right palm.
"Can this also show the location where the Black Pearl you're looking for is?" asked Elle without waiting long. He didn't waste any more time on Etter's joke.
Elle wants to make sure that her 101 mission is not a ridiculous, calculation-less suicide mission. Even now, her life is aimless because his whole family is gone.
Death by death. Even if Elle now lives a kara, she does not want to die silly like the last time.
"Exactly. And the good news is, one of those Black Pearls is in this room."
"So, where's that?" asked Elle impatiently.
"Wait a minute, Etter Key is only one and still needs a partner to be able to detect the presence of the Black Pearl. And it's your job to find a partner from this Etter Key," Etter said seriously.
"You should have said that from earlier and stop the useless niceties." grudges Elle is annoyed that Etter always acts at his own.
Because basically, Etter is not a creature that is bound to anyone. Her existence is like a legend in a fantasy fairy tale, and Elle does not know enough about Etter's existence can only complain of annoyance.
"Your niceties? I did it not because I wanted to but because your brain's ability to digest my speech was too slow. Can't you understand how slowly your brain has been working all this time?" said Etter.
Shake her head several times to make his long hair scattered in the wind from the window gap in the leaking.
"Then I'm sorry. For a long time, my life was just spent only taking care of the house. Take care of my daughter and husband. So this slow-thinking housewife is not suitable to be your great man. So find someone who deserves to replace me." grumbled Elle was annoyed that provoke Etter inevitably had offended her.
Aside from being physically exhausted, Elle also hadn't rested more than 36 hours, and now she was suddenly assigned as a servant slave in Prince Ellder's Palace, who was counting the days to die. Elle is increasingly clueless in Etter's vague way of thinking.
"Men? Don't make me laugh anymore, Elle. There is no such relationship between us. You are an independent person and have no ties to me except the 101 tasks we've ever agreed on."
Of course, Elle was stunned to hear the unexpected answer from Etter. The answer that she thinks is untrue. Because all this time, Elle only obeyed what Etter told her to do.
"I don't understand, really," said Elle scratched her head which didn't itch at all.
This time, Etter got up from his seat and walked around Elle, who was still confused. Look at Elle from toe to head, with an all-around look in disbelief. Could it be that Etter has been wrong in recruiting people?
Or is it an absolute mistake to be in the hands of Etter, who is in a hurry to want to return to the human world?
The answer is not sure because certainty also contains an element of thick uncertainty. While the blood is thicker than water, and humans are more intelligent than any animal. Man with all its shortcomings and advantages has Etter consciously chosen.
"It's better that you don't need to understand anything, Elle. It's enough for you to do the job I commanded. Be an obedient slave to death." sneered Etter after finishing looking at Elle thoroughly.
"Boy? True. I just understood now." Elle's great-grandson panicked but still kept her standing tall. Staring back right into Etter's empty eyes.
Only this time, Elle noticed that Etter's eye beads were not as black as other humans. Etter's eye beads are clear and often change color depending on what Etter is doing. More like an indicator light on a circuit inside the body of a robot assembly is not perfect.
"Look, right? You've even misrepresented what I said earlier," said Etter sarcastically.
However, Etter again took a step back and stopped debating something that shouldn't be a problem. Not so for Elle. Before everything peaked into anger, there was suddenly a rowdy noise from the direction of Ellder's bed.
Without waiting a long time, Elle immediately took a step running to the place of origin of the sound that provoked her sense of hearing. And it's not something pleasant that's beautiful to see his tired eyes.
Prince Ellder, lying unconscious on the floor.
