In Another World I Become a Healer With Purple Hair

191 Secret of the Kalpataru island

Everyone inside the kitchen was suddenly on stand still, Anne look so confused, she shared glances with Henry. Meanwhile, Arthur still demanded an answer from her, he stand in front of her, not even budging in. Henry took a long sigh and approach him.

“Look, probably it will be for the best if you could sit down and let Anne explain everything.” Henry, who has the best sleep after a while, was trying to be calm with Arthur.

“Oh good, you’re here, please tell us, what are you doing…”

Henry tried so hard to calm Arthur, and Anne saw everything. She praised his calm approach towards the agitated magic knight captain. “Just! Just sit down for now. You’re scaring her.”

“You heard him, Arthur, please be a gentleman and just sit down!” Xavier’s voice came echoing in the kitchen, we look at him, leaning on the door frame and glaring at Arthur.

Leo held onto Arthur’s shoulder. Even though he was shorter than Arthur, Leo do the best he could to force him to sit on the bench on his side. Anne gave him a grateful silence when Arthur finally gave in. Henry also asked Xavier to come and sit with them.

“Wait, all of us need to hear this.” Said, Anne. She then turns her head to Brom. “Could you please search for our senior? Nathan probably was on the deck.”

Brom nods his head and goes outside. Henry and Xavier look tentatively at Arthur. Both of them were irritated by how nosy this magic knight captain is.

“Now, before Anne gave you the answer, we need to know, how the f*ck do you know about her being in our room late at night?” Xavier asked him. This time, he was already a bit mad about this whole situation. He felt Arthur was too much when he asked Anne some embarrassing questions in front of everyone, and also because now, they need to inform everyone about Justice.

.....

“I asked the captain of the ship…” Arthur seems nervous, he was looking at Anne and said, “At first I was just having a nice conversation and then he asked me about you, the captain told me that she saw you coming out from captain Henry and captain Xavier’s room in a late hour.” When Anne gave him a shocking expression, Arthur added, “He… he was just curious though, not snooping in. He thought that you probably dating them, so…”

“But… That was absurd! Even though I probably dating them, it doesn’t mean that he has some right to snoop into my privacy!” Anne was livid, she almost stand up from her bench and confront the captain.

Xavier took her hand and asked her to sit. He whispered to Anne, “Don’t worry, I will make sure to scold the captain. For now, let’s deal with them.”

Sighing, Anne nods her head, “Fine, I just hope we are doing the right thing here.” She was indeed pessimistic, not that she didn’t trust Leo and Nathan, she actually didn’t trust Arthur that much.

They heard the kitchen door open, Brom and Nathan come inside and looked around. Henry told them to sit at the other table. After they settled, Xavier begin to tell them the story. At first, they were listening to the whole story with no words, until Xavier told them that they were in fact hiding from the extremist group.

“So, the group was real? There is an extremist group out there?! unbelievable!” Nathan was holding his breath seems to Anne and Leo he was already panicking.

Henry looks at all of them and nodded his head. “The group is real, and so is their threat. The only lie was about them holding captive of our crown prince. They never captured Justice, and... the others.”

Leo raised his hand, “Look, Nathan also has some story, and you probably already know by now,” He said to all of them, he turn his attention to Nathan once again, “Please tell us your version now, senior, and I hope you won’t keep anything from us.”

Nathan was disturbed by Leo’s accusation. He furiously asked Leo, “So you didn’t trust me? After all that I said?!”

“I am sorry, senior, but I can sense that you still hiding something from us. Please, tell us everything.” Leo was pleaded with Nathan, and the others just waiting for any reaction from the senior healer right now.

“Yes, you’re right.” Said Nathan while huffing his breath, “I kept something from the two of you. But, believe me, I did it because I wanted to protect you… The two of you.”

Anne and Leo look at each other. “Protect us from what, senior?” Asked Leo again.

“Protect our sacred job from the traitors, because all the healers on the Kalpataru island were siding with the extremist group. Actually, ninety percent of the inhabitants of the island are the traitors of the royalty now.” Said Nathan in a grim voice.

Everyone holds their breaths, Kalpataru island has two thousand inhabitants in it, it is the most populated and the richest island in the whole kingdom. This means Kalpataru now is the nest of the hidden extremist group.

“Did the empress never know about this?! I mean Kalpataru island is one of the most pivotal points of the kingdom, the empress bound to know something?!” Henry frustratingly voiced his opinion, he can’t fathom how much loss the kingdom will be getting if the Kalpataru island really is the hidden nest of the extremist group.

“We never knew, because someone always hides every information about the island, and as long as the island has a clean report, Empress and the kings probably will hear nothing about this.” Nathan gave him the answer with a long sigh, “Understanding how our kingdom, whoever kept the information was coming from one of the high-rank officials inside the palace.”

All of them went quiet. This mission is on a whole new level, not just about one family or the whole pack of werewolves. This is about a thousand people in all of the variations of jobs living on the island. Anne felt the shiver coming through her body, and then a realization.

“Oh, my God! The captain, the captain, and the sailors, who recruited all of them?” Said Anne, with a panic set in her eyes, looking at the others.

Henry, Xavier, and Arthur stand up immediately. They call for their weapon and go outside the kitchen. Brom looked at all of the confused healers and said, “We recruited them. They all come from the Kalpataru island.”
