《Reverse Orbital: The World when The Sun Rise from The West》1.11. Baiting a Baiter
Advertisement
"5th – 7th floor secured. Ren Report."
"2nd – 4th floor also secured. Jhe Report."
"Ok, Toll Reg would start operate."
We communicated in group-call using a VoIP app in our phone, WhyApp.
Right after we eat yesterday, I and Jhenn tell everything we discuss earlier. About stealing and looting she knows, and my ability to see black spot. And sis Rena was like "So that’s why you looked at my chest all the time?". I can only agree, since I can’t tell that I also a healthy boy in his puberty phase.
Now our objective was to scout, knock one out, and interrogate. No more. But I can’t guarantee since Jhenn was obviously want to steal.
Sis was patrolling on top floor, and Jhenn on the bottom. And I, they used me as a bait since I don’t have grace but also could see the blackspot effortless.
I’m glad I have this ability, but not with the way that girl order me. "You, you are a perfect toll, none a girl that could be raped, and also graceless to be stolen. Just accept it!". And sis Rena was just agreed with "She got a point. Even if Jhennifer has 30k point she’s a girl. That’s a risky way to do it, you know what I mean right?".
I want to deny it with "You pity that monster that could knocked-out 15 armed men even without grace". But I couldn’t since she always called her sword whenever I opened my mouth to speak up.
The plan is to bait one culprit with obviously me as the bait and bring it to the higher floor so Jhenn could execute them.
Now I back and forth in this 1st floor and also around the outer building. And here I found that man again. Gotcha…
"Hello sir? Still remember me?"

"Oh, you’re that graceless boy last Friday. What’s up kid?"
"Could you help me after this sir? My friend is wounded her leg when she bragged her grace to me."
"Huh, that’s good then. Grace isn’t something to brag kid. Let her just reap what she sows then."
I couldn’t disagree. I would do what this man said if that’s really the case.
"Help me please, she’s a rich girl so I think she would pay you a lot. She just won’t take the scar after, so she chooses to paid a healer."
"How much?"
"I don’t know, but she’s really rich that she could easily paid my one week hospitalization fee."
"Ok, I’ll go there after this one."
"Ok sir, thank you."
Easy. That was too easy. So, this is why you shouldn’t be blinded by money huh.
"Back to my room ASAP! Toll Reg report." *whisper
"Why? You got one?"
"Yes, and just act as a fragile girl." *whisper
"…"
But what next? Is this man enough? I just didn’t he him villain enough. I think I need more subject. Hmmm…Ah.
"Sir, it’s just 2 of us in that room… So, when in that room could you teach us how to use grace?"
"Eh you’ve already got one?"
"Hehehe yes, and a high rank one."
"Oh, really?! that’s great then hahaha."
He looks so excited for it. What does rank merit in stealing? Doesn’t Jhenn said everyone have 1000 starting points no matter the rank is? Is there anything she yet to tell me?
"Ok I’ve done. Let’s go kid."
"Ok sir."
"Oh wait, need to go to toilet first."
"Ok."
As expected. I expect there’s 2 possibilities. He needs to tell his company so they could steal both of ours. The second is there were grouped by task. I assume there were a group of baiter, executioner, and container.

If they just randomly attacking then they would have been over soon. But these days not many that have realized their doing that means they did it so organized. The second assumption is more accurate. What we fear is, of their upper was someone that have a political power or in government or the terrorist or the worst it’s all above.
"Hey kid, let’s go there."
"Ah, ok."
"Btw, where is your room?"
"7th floor, Jasmine 12th."
I let him choose the path. He chooses the lift rather than the stairs that’s so quiet. Glad he wouldn’t do it in the way to my room.
…2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.
"This way sir."
"Ok kid."
He said that, but the direction he’s heading was already there. Did my room already on their mark?
Nah here he is. He only brings 1 companion with him. I don’t know what he looks but I can feel he’s following us from behind. Quietly.
*Knock knock
"It’s me"
*Cklack
…Krieekkkk
"Good evening miss, I’m here to heal your leg."
"Ah, you’re the healer he talking about, aren’t you? Come in"
Crap, I forgot to tell her she needs to act hobble. Glad he doesn’t seem to be suspicious. And sist Rena was just standing still beside the bed.
"Ok…"
Jhenn looks at me. Ah I know it… she just can’t waste the time to act this act that.
"How much?"
"Oh, the fee is up to-"
"Only one and there’s no one outside"
"Eh?"
She vanished just right after I say it. It was so bright for a fraction of second. The healer-man can’t do nothing as he witnessed someone he thinks need a healing in her leg just disappeared from his eyes.
"Here’s done!"
"Ok! Now sir, I’ll let you choose being silent and obedient or being knocked-out just like your friend."
"What? What you all doing? What friend?"
Tap tap tap…
Jhenn back to this room. She’s drags her target, and throws him inside this room. Then closes the door.
"Didn’t expect you to be this soft. And you an old man there. Choose!"
She called her sword. It’s bigger than what she shows all this time. Its form was still like claymore but it so long and wider. It’s long was around 3 meters and 0,5 meter wide. She pointed it toward the healer-man.
"I don’t know anything kid. I’m just a healer. What would you expect me to do?"
*swishhh brakk
The shock from Jhenn attack make him fell on his knees.
"Huh? Why did you stop me?"
"This is not how you play with this half-hearted villain."
"What you mean?"
"Just let me handle it."
"…Kay."
She retracts her hands from my grabs and 3 steps back. She standing arrogantly by folding his hands while waiting me doing something to this healer. Sis Rena was ties up the other man and taped up his mouth. She looks a bit frightened.
I was just planning to do this with just me and Jhenn. But she forced to joined us when we discuss about the plan. I think she just can’t let a kid like us handle this thing without adult guidance.
"Sir, could you please not pretend ignorant, or…"
I grabbed his shoulder and push him to make him sat down. I put my feet right on his precious middle-bottom thing. Of course, I’m wearing my shoes for safety. Then squished it…
"AAAaaaaaa~"
He sang his word of agony.
