Child from the Dungeon

Chapter 133: Personal Things Part 4

( Night time. )

"( Is everyone already asleep? )" I ask myself, for I then scan the whole Medic Room to see its inhabitants, checking if the people were already asleep or not.

< Scanning >

< Scanning >

< Result: All Subjects in the Area are asleep >

" Oh goody! " I said as I realized that all are asleep, I also see Carlos and Carol who decides to stay guarding us, she told us that the Academy is postponed, thus asking the students to study at home, they said that they would make the learning 'Full Online', but the date when it all be started is still on debate since the academy is still trying to re-arrange the learning system, updating the Learning Manage System Website and Apps, and try to mitigate those students who might've had no gadget to do so, which the academy decides to help them buy giving them some Magiphones and their extras.

" I hope the Online learnings didn't have 'night sessions' or else I'm f#ked. " I realized for the only way to my 'things' is at night time, like now.

"( [Tania]... )" I call my [Black Shadow Elite, Tania] through <Link>, I realize that she already does her job perfectly as always*.

"( Yes, young master. )" Tania replied.

"( Status Tania, Status? )" I asked her about her job.

Tania tells me all, regarding what I tasked her. Her job is to watch every other Royal House that I think had something to do with the Richter House's problems right now, the problem which made my parents too busy to meet me since they had to rescue my grandfather for goodness sake.

Hmm...

Makes me wonder, why Grandpa had to be abducted by the elves.

I've seen it on the news and Carol explained it to me more regarding it, it makes me quite worried for if this happens, then.

"( The Middle and Lower Royal Houses, might take this moment as their advantage to take over the Richter House's position. )" I remembered for the Royal Houses in Elysium Haven are separated into three groups.

The Upper Houses, the Middle Houses, and the Lower Houses almost could be equal to the commoners' caste, the rich ones of course.

The Richter House is at the Upper Houses, just like House Calibur (obviously, look at their leader and first heir Carlos), House Scarlett (I don't know much since that is Carlos' stepmom's House, not my area of expertise), House Nyx Nocterra (the Royal House who had so many enemies, Mr. Tenebrae is one of them), and there are many more, for I remember that there are thirteen of them totaled.

Since the Upper Houses had so much power, the lesser Houses, both in the Middle and Lower Houses always try many ways to replace one of the Houses, it has always been like that for years based on what I've learned in the history records. Especially my own House the Richter House, my House has always been targeted by other Houses due to our differences from the other Houses, in recorded history, my House will always be 'that Royal House' that has different ideas from the other Royal Houses, many times also siding with the Commoners too, making the other Royal Houses furious.

Things like that could also be seen in my 'parents', my father who came from the commoner caste with his origins still unknown to the public or to himself, and my mother the prodigal child of the Richter House with her [Dragon Curse].

"( It seems the Richter House better be prepared for another 'Dragon Magic User' will arise in the family. )" I tell myself for I think that it seems I could use Grimdark's power in public, as an alternative using my [Black Shadows] since those are 'Draven's attribute from now on.

"( In public, I show myself to be a 'Dragon Slayer' attribute, and in the shadows, my attribute is the shadows and the smokes..., seems legit. )" I tell myself that, but aside from that, I continue asking Tania regarding her results which Tania then tells me.

"( I see, so you found some clue regarding the Houses I suspected to have conspired against the Richter House at times like this, during this Elven attack shit. )"

"( Oops, sorry Tania... )"

"( I'm going to exclude the 'Dark Elves' from the 'shit' word... )" I tell her apologies for probably saying a word that means all Elves are shit by probably including her own race too in it.

"( It's alright, master... )"

"( Your servant's race too never liked the other Elven Race who lives under the Sun. )"

"( Even to our brethren that live under the moon like the Star Elves, our race also conflicted with. )" Tania tells Donovan, she tells him that he could order her and the other Black Shadow Dark Elves to kill the other Elven Race, they'll do it willingly if it makes the other Elves disappear.

"( Wow, that's brutal... )"

"( But still, can you send me what you have gathered? )" I asked her as I suddenly received a message from Tania in the <System Chat Messenger>.

...

< [System Chat Messenger] >

< [BSEServantI@Tania] >

< [ 'Black Shadow Elite Servant I, the Black Shadow Elf, Tania' ] >

< Tania: " Young master, this is what I've found. " >

< Tania: " *'File: ###.doc'* >

< Tania: " Please, witness this Master... " >

< User@Donovan: " Okay! " >

< User@Donovan: " Well done, Tania! " >

< User@Donovan: " Stand by there. " >

< User@Donovan: " Wait for me in your location. " >

...

I texted her that in the message, telling her to stand by in her location which I see on her status that she's at the 'Vermillion House's residence.

"( The 'Vermillion House'...! )" I gazed at the location description while downloading the file Tania sent, opening it to consume every information she described in that very document.

"( I see, those bastards, huh? )" I said to myself as I decided to stand up from my bed, looking at my two classmates asleep in the room, along with the other patients.

"( Please be asleep before I return. )" I can only hope as I deploy a <Black Shadow Watcher> to watch these people's condition as I go away.

" #@*##!&##! " the Watcher says as it was deployed, that little stalker begins to hide in the room's skies and begins to watch everyone inside.

" I better get prepared too, then... "

" Tania awaits me. " I say to myself as I turned into 'Draven', using the armories I choose for him*, every armor that I choose to become his icon.

" Perfecto, time for me to leave ya all! " 'Draven' says for he then leaves using <Shadow Transport>.

...

[ Location: Vermillion House Residence, Aile Phénix ]

" Master, you're here... " Tania says as she and the other Black Shadow Elves awaited 'Draven's arrival.

" Status report, Tania! " Draven orders her.

" There is no sign of abnormal activity in the Vermillion Residence for now, but... "

" Things will be noisier inside hmmm? " Draven says, realizing that he just received a new quest.

< (!) Message (!) >

< (!) New Quest (!) >

" Hmmm... I see... " Draven opens the quest and accepted it.

< Quest Accepted (!) >

< Starting the Quest now. >

" Master? " Tania asks.

" It's nothing, just some formality that should be done. "

" Now we have no time to waste, it is time, Tania! "

" Time for the world of the night to also witness the rampage and the judgment of the Blackest of Shadows! "

...

...

( Meanwhile. )

" Don't move you Demi-human hybrid! " says a person as he tortures a Demi-human hybrid girl, as he shocks her in her feather.

" Kyakkk!!!! " the Demi-human girl cries as the person tortures her, but she can only grunt as her mouth was covered, this has been done for hours and hours,.

*Explosion noises.*

" What the hell was that!? "

" Explosion, in the West Wing Section! "

" All troops attack the intruders, ASAP! "

" Intruders!? " the torturer shouts.

" Shit! how did they know? "
