章節 10: GoE 10 Etter Keys

--playlist this chapter: Waiting by Catherine Holm--

...

The room the size of the football field was suddenly silent in one second. It's like someone is trying to stop humanity's time.

And Elle knew it was Etter's doing.

Elle is convinced. More strongly convinced with Etter's power that Elle can't guess how terrible it is, that Etter can do whatever she wants without exception.

It's about stopping time.

Unfortunately, Etter didn't flinch. He astonished fixedly at Elle with beautiful golden-green eyes full of wonder.

"How did you forget what I said before we came here, Elle?" said Etter, still in the same calm tone as before.

"What's that? I don't remember. Because to be honest, there were too many of your words that even I couldn't understand," grumbled Elle, slightly stomping her feet to the floor in frustration.

Of the one hundred and one missions he had to do, only five were easy for Elle because it was just a word of promise and vow.

However, taking the Black Pearl, whose existence only Elle did not know, is it possible?

"As I remember, I once said about the three cloths that now bandage your body, right? Not only can you use it to disguise, but you can also use it to go in and out of many rooms in this Palace without being noticed. Of course, there will be some people with high levels of strength who will probably be aware of your existence if you are within close enough range.

However, to the extent that it is only limited to guards and guards of the standard class, then it should not matter," Etter said.

Hearing it makes Elle realize again if her life is now like being in a fictional world or maybe like in an action movie and a secret agent. The difference is that Elle doesn't know who the big boss is commanding her unless it's just Etter that she knows.

"I didn't expect that those three fabrics, especially black, could do that kind of thing. Then does that make sense, and can I believe it?" asked Elle, still shrouded in doubts.

"Of course, Elle. You are not the usual Elleta Ido. You could say right now you are the super female version of Elleta Ido, who must complete missions of one hundred and one missions. And now is a good time to take the Black Pearl, an heirloom forbidden to humans who are in one of the rooms in this Main Palace." said Elle.

Elle nodded in agreement in response. In any case, he begins to gain a new understanding of the reality of life that he must face.

Elle, must put aside the grief for her husband and child and must refrain from being mired in a puddle of sadness to complete one hundred and one mission to revive her husband or child.

For the sake of getting an answer that from the beginning rumbled, demand an explanation. A logical explanation of everything Elle experienced some time ago.

However, Elle must remind herself that Etter is an exception to all reasonable logic. Etter is a miracle and a fruit of dooms for Elle personally.

The miracle was when Etter saved himself from the abyss of death. And, like the fruit of nonsense. Because after realizing, she was still alive. Without giving any time, Etter told Elle to carry out the mission.

Not just one or two missions, but as many as one hundred and one missions that are almost all for Elle is more like a story in an action comic or action novel.

"Okay, I understand. So to be able to know where exactly the location of the Black Pearl is stored. What should I do?" said Elle like an aide who was ready to accept an important task.

"That's the problem, Elle. Before that, we find the location of the Black Pearl. First, you have to look for the Etter Key in this room," replied Etter, stepping towards one of the chairs and sitting on it. Her hands were crossed by across her chest, and Etter closed his eyes.

It wasn't Etter doing to show strength or anything like that. Etter only did it because she could see Elle staring intently at him with a killing gaze.

"Etter, don't mess with me, okay? Even if I'm just a weak woman that you can deceive so much. But if I have to find out what the Etter Key is that I don't know what it looks like, then don't blame me if it takes me a long time to find it."

Elle's self-esteem as a woman is hurt because Etter only treats herself as a waitress.

"Calm down, Elle. I know you'd say that to me. So, It's best to listen to me until I'm done, before speaking rudely to me like just now. Okay?" asked Etter, flashing a smile.

"What's that?" said Elle starting a little calmer.

From one of the windows that were still open, the wind slipped in and produced a light blow to the surface of Elle's skin, which was not entangled in the fabric.

And the effect produced by the gust of wind calmed Elle, who inexplicably always acted frantically in front of Etter.

"The new fact I just found out is that The Youngest Prince Ellder turned out to be saving the Etter Key. A key to Etter's precious relics. The key is used to open all the padlocks in the universe. Of course, except for the lock of heaven's door and the door of hell," Etter said seriously.

Elle couldn't help but be surprised to hear Etter's recent confession.

What caught Elle's attention more was not the existence of the Key to Etter but rather the existence of Etter itself. If Etter had come thousands of years into the human realm to clean up the wrong things that plagued the human world, then for Etter - Etter who came before Etter, then now how many?

The thought of this is disturbing to Elle.

In the past, Elle was still living with her mother. Elle's mother is a botanical scientist who accidentally told Etter's story to little Elle.

The memory of the story must have been very vague for the adult Elle. Or it has been erased with memories of Elle's other life experiences.

"Etter, what creature are you really?" asked Elle, as if repeating the same question some time ago.

It's just that this time Elle needs a more convincing answer than ever.
