"Now, can you tell me who you are and how you're going to help me escape the cult?"

After we finished taking care of the cult members who are after her and Veronica, we gathered together. Though Celestine is still putting up her guard since she's still unable to trust me. Especially since I seem like the orphans' kidnapper.

And I also don't know if the cult members we killed are aiming for only Celestine, or also Veronica. We have already killed them all.

The cult will be wary if they never heard of these assassins' return. So, I need to take care of how the cult will perceive this.

Albert, Hector, and I have discussed about this before I left to look for these two. To make things easy, I just need to make sure the cult will think that these two were dead. But the cult reached them first, and all of them have died. Which makes the two pretend to be dead difficult since the cult will undoubtedly be sending someone to check about the assassins' mission.

"Well, first, I need to make sure that the cult will think that the two of you are dead. You want to leave the cult, right?" I asked Celestine.

"Yes. Actually, I…"

"That's enough. Just yes is enough. As for what kind of past you're gonna tell me, there's a place for that later. I just need to figure out how to take care of this problem first."

I don't need to hear about her past. I can have Albert listen to her. I think it will be easier for her to believe in Albert than me. As for Veronica, I'll bring her to Albert as well. The two can decide on what they want to do after talking with Albert.

Both of them wanted to leave the cult, but neither of them had said that they want to destroy the cult. Maybe if I told them about my previous life, they will join us since there's no other choice because the cult is trying to destroy everything. I think Veronica can be trusted, but I don't know about Celestine. And they are free to make a choice in what they want to do.

Well, before continuing our discussion, I have something to give Celestine.

"Hey, catch this!"

I threw a ring toward Celestine. The ring is made of Victoria's clone, with the sand needed to summon Sonia. I have changed the accessories to be made of Blobbies so they just need to have one. Well, other than Veronica's whom I have difficulty to meet.

"A ring? We just met and you already want to marry me?" Celestine was surprised after catching the ring I threw.

"That joke is over one year old already!" I shouted.

"Roy, in her defense, she only met you today. So, she must be thinking that you're asking her hand in marriage for real." Victoria explained.

Right, I think I remember that Veronica told me about this. She said that Celestine wanted to have a normal love life. Finding a man who loves her not because of her boobs. And probably, seeing how I never focus on her boobs, making her thinks that I'm a good candidate.

…or maybe it's just my wild imagination. Giving a ring is a common gesture in proposing to someone after all.

"Sigh… tap the ring twice and you will know." I told her.

Veronica tapped the ring without equipping it, and soon, Sonia appears in front of her.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Sonia. A ghost. And a messenger between Veronica, Roy, and anyone who have similar equipment." Sonia introduced herself.

"This… so this is how you communicate with people outside the cult, huh? I'll ask about this later. For now, what do we need to do?" Celestine asked.

"Well, Sonia, can you ask Albert if he can send a lot of his agents to this area? We'll make it as if everyone here died after being killed by them. We'll also make the cult think twice if we show them our strength. They won't dare to mess in this kingdom." I said.

"Alright. But he's probably sleeping now." Sonia said.

"Then wake him up in the scariest way possible. You're a ghost."

After that, Sonia left for a while.

It only took her a minute until she returns.

"How is it?" I asked Sonia.

"He said it's fine. Just do your best in making sure the two expert level mages leave the cult." Sonia replied.

"I mean his expression when you scare him."

"He was quite prepared for my coming, so he didn't get surprised."

"That's disappointing." I said.

"Roy, focus on your goal first." Victoria reminded me.

So, I need to make sure the two expert level mages to leave the cult. And I think we have killed four other expert level mages.

"So… Celestine, I need your help in burying all these corpses. Then, the agents will come probably tomorrow, and stay for a while and patrolling the area. Once the other cult members arrive, they will think that those agents are the ones killing all these cult members. If they report it to the helmet-man, they will think that we are far more powerful than they expected. As for the two of you, we will look for a corpse of someone with similar features with you two, and place them along with the other corpses."

But there's one flaw in this plan. There is no corpse with similar feature with these two!

"Roy, did you remember what I told you about plastic surgery?" Victoria asked.

"Hmm… about how it can change someone's appearance, right?"

"Right. I'm no doctor, but you are. You can inject some Blobbies into the necessary area of the corpse. And if the corpses are burned, people will think that the corpse of someone with big boobs is Celestine's, and the one with big ass is Veronica's." Victoria whispered to me so the two won't hear us.

I think the two ladies are quite sensitive when someone is talking about those parts of their bodies. They seem to think that we're talking about their bodies. Let's make sure I can keep maintaining eye contact.

But to inject some Blobbies to change the corpses' physical appearances, huh? I think that's a good idea. Let's try it!

I found two female corpses with similar appearances with the two except for the obvious area, then I stabbed a syringe made of Blobbies to pour some Blobbies inside their body.

The result is… they grow bigger!

Now we just need to burn them so everyone will think that they are Veronica's and Celestine's corpses.

If they still suspicious about the corpses, let's blame Ninja. I can inform the agents to blame everything on Ninja.

"Well, that's one thing taken care of. Then… Celestine, may I ask you to bury the corpses? And if you can use fire magic as well, please burn some corpses along with your fake corpses."

"Sure."

Celestine then split the earth with her magic. So, I was right that she's the one who make the ground shake before.

Then after having the Werewolves put the corpses inside the crevice, Celestine closed the earth.

With this, we're done here. The cult will think that the kingdom's agents are the one killing the assassins, and buried them here, where there are no people nearby. Good thing I told Sonia to get Veronica hides here.

"Now, are you finally going to tell us about yourself?" Celestine asked.

"No. If you only want to leave the cult, then this will probably be the last time we meet. My goal is to destroy the cult. It's better if you don't know much about me. You can find some place to build an orphanage where you will take care of the orphans. And Veronica, you also have the choice to live peacefully without caring about the cult at all. I'll let you discuss what you want to do with the guy on the other side." I said.

Let them discuss it with Albert. He's the king after all. Though, why did he go to sleep already? Does it mean he already interviewed all the Celestine's spies and the orphans as well? Though I guess he should be awake now since he knows that I already meet the two and about to bring them to him.

"The guy on the other side? Is that Albert you talked about? Don't tell me that you're together with the King of Tatrama, Albert?" Celestine asked. But the one who answered is Veronica.

"Yes. Ever since before the stampede, I have already cooperating with him and the king. Roy, I have made up my mind. I'll help you destroying the cult." Veronica said.

"That's good. But you will still need to have a talk with Albert first. He has a lot to ask you two."

Since we have already trust Veronica, it's better if I brought her along with Celestine as well to meet Albert. She will be strong enough to handle Celestine in case she's lying about wanting to leave the cult.

Now… how should I take them to Albert?

"Hmm… sigh… Can you to trust me and go to sleep?" I asked sincerely.

"What? Ugh… this… some kind of magic tool?" Celestine asked.

"You can think of it that way for now. Sorry about this, but I'll be taking you to meet Albert. You should be able to meet the orphans over there. With your level, you will wake up soon. Good night."

After making the two expert level mages fell asleep, I had the female Werewolves carry them. I opened a portal, and had the Werewolves bringing the two inside. After that, the Werewolves returned and I closed the portal.

"Good job all of you! I'll bring the reward later."

I returned all the Werewolves, including Shelia, back to Monsters World.

Now I just need to return to Jion, and pretend I was there all-night sleeping.

Tomorrow, after finding a good place to mark with Blobby, I'll return to the Capital with portal.

…tonight is a very long night.
