《Deck of Cards》Who uses who
Advertisement
Next morning, Echo is awakened by someone, who was knocking on the door. Echo looked around for a few seconds, before moving Skyeza, who was lying on top of him, to his side and got out of the bed.
He walked over to the door and opened it, to see Karena there.
"What is it?"he asks while still tired.
"His Majesty want you to go to the throne room. Immediately."Karena tells him and he nods, before closing the door.
While putting his clothes on, Skyeza says"What was it?"
"The king wants to me to go to the throne room."Echo replies and finishes putting on his boots.
"Okay."she replies and falls back to sleep.
Echo puts his shirt on, pulls the blanket over her body and kisses her cheek, before leaving the room. In a bad mood, he walks to the throne room. His bad mood comes from, being woken up early and not being to able to enjoy the time with Skyeza.
He reaches the throne room and sees, Elyza, Elizabeth, the king whos name he still doesn't know and....'lil bitch.
'Oh for fucks sake. He's a prince. That explains why I had to come here today.'
"Thats the guy dad. He's the one who attacked me without a reason." Bitch immediately yells out in his annoying voice.
"Without a reason? I had a reason."Echo says back in a calm voice.
"You just attacked me."he yells back.
"And you tried to flirt with my woman."Echo snaps back.
"Your woman. She is far too beautiful to be with you."he says with an arrogant tone.
"Come down here bitch and say it to my face. Lets see how tough you are you little shit."Echo says with an angry down and immediately the guards took a stance with their spears. The Shadow Guards also drew their bows and aimed at him.
"Everyone stop now."Elyza yells out and the guards hearing her orders, retreat to their original position.
"Echo. You have to stop insulting royalties!"She turns to the 'lil bitch."Gabriel. You have told hundreds of times, that flirting with random woman in the castle is prohibited and you actually tried to flirt with a heroes lover."
Echo just looks at the family and finally says"Okay. So why the fuck am I here. You could have solved it out without me. I have better things to do, then waste my time here."
"Because you attacked a royalty."the king finally opens his mouth.
"So what. He should be glad that I didn't hit him. The fucking social status in this world doesn't matter to me. Annoy me and you'll regret it."Echo says in an angry voice. His mood was already bad and now he has to deal with this bullshit here.

"Watch your tonge Echo."The king says with a loud voice.
"Or what? You need me. I don't need you. So you Are the ones who should watch your tonge."Echo says with an angry voice.
He turns around and starts walking away.
"We aren't done here. You get back here immediately!"the king orders, but Echo only shows middle finger with both of his hand and walks out of the room.
"You two are fucking idiots. I'll deal with it myself."Elyza says and goes after him to talk with him.
"You actually disappointed me right now Arthur. You didn't think straight and went along with Gabriel. So unkingly."Elizabeth says with a disappointed voice and also leaves.
While Echo is walking down the corridor, he hears Elyzas voice behind him."Echo. Echo wait up."
Hearing her, he decides to stop and at least hear her out.
"What is it?"he asks her, when she has reached to him.
"Could we talk in my room. I don't want others to hear that. Follow me."she tells him and he just rolls his eyes, while following her.
The reach her room and the first thing that catches his eyes, is a queen sized canopy bed with pink curtains.
"Sit down."she says, but he replies"I'd rather stand. Now tell me what did you want to talk about and lets get it over."
"'I'll be completely honest here. Basically your attitude will soon put your head onto the chopping block. Father doesn't like you, unlike mother. Father seems to like Chris the most, because apparently he acts like a hero should. But the heroes way isn't always the right way. You know that, right?"
"Yeah. So get to the point. Someone is waiting for me."Echo tells her.
"I guess so. But to the point. In my opinion, the heroes way won't get is anywhere. He is too good to probably even take a life, If needed. And so even he were to fight and overwhelm one of the demon lords, he probably couldn't kill him or her. We don't need a demon lord as a prisoner, but as a corpse."
"And this is the part where I come in."Echo says and she nods.
"Yes. You have no problem killing someone If needed, seeing as you have the title [Killer]."
"How do you know about it? The globe didn't show it."Echo asks with a serious tone.
"I have the ability to see the status. But don't worry. I'm not stupid enough to tell others about it."she tells him.
"I can see that."he replies.
"But getting back to topic. Basically you need to be the one, who does what needs to be done. Even If it is a inhumane thing."

"So you're saying I should commit war crimes?"
"What's a war crime?"she asks him.
"Right. This world probably doesn't have that term."he mutters to himself and tells her"So what. You want me to do the dirty work."
"No. I want you to win this war as quickly as possible. You said that after it was all done, you want to stay here. What are you gonna, If you stay here? If I may ask."she asks him and he replies"Probably find a few more lovers who can get along with each other and settle down somewhere. Why do you even ask?"
"Just interested. So will you win the war or let it drag out?"she asks him with a serious tone.
"I'm a mercenary. Battle is my job. So the longer the war goes on, more money I will get."
"Fine. What If I offer you more then money?"she asks him.
"Like what?"
"Myself. If you finish the war quickly, I will marry you and you can get a lot of money as a bonus."Elyza tells him with a made up mind.
"So your giving your body away just like that? Fine. In a year, this shit is over and I will be fucking you on that same bed."he tells her and opens the door, to leave.
"You better hold that promise."she tells him, before he leaves the room and closes the door behind him.
She lets out a sigh and sits down on a bed.
'I hope he can do it, so I could take the throne to myself. Gabriel will fuck this is entire kingdom up and father is close to that. It needs a ruler that can think differently. It needs me. And it will be much easier with a strong hero by my side. Who could defy a killer of a demon lord.'
"I hope you don't fail me, White Demon."she lays her back down and lets out a chuckle"White Demon. What a weird nickname for a human."
As for Echo, he was walking back to his room, while thinking'So she is ready to give her body to me, so she could use my strength. Haha. We'll see who uses who.'
He gets to his room and sees the cute elf on the bed, still sleeping. Because he has nothing else better to do, he takes of his clothes and joins her in bed.
He takes her in her arms and pulls her closer. She in her sleep, hugs him, while saying,"Echo...nnn....be more gentle."
'What are you dreaming lewd elf?'
Watching her comfortably sleeping, makes him sleepy too and so he falls asleep too.
"So...E-6...Wanna explain what the fuck are we doing here?"is asked from a fifteen or so year old girl.
"We need info from a guy and we need to do it on spot."she replies to the ashen haired boy, E-7.
"Okay. So why are you dressed like a slut?"he bluntly asks her and receives a smack to the back of his head.
"Zip it shrimp. You're too young to understand it."
"I'm eleven and I know you gonna be bouncing on some fucker dick, while getting info from him. I've worked with "J" squad members before. Bunch of sex addicts."he mutters the last sentence.
He is smacked again to the back of his head.
"Language young man. Where the fuck did you even learn those damn words."
"I wonder where."he says sarcastically, before slapping her ass and telling her"Lets go."
"You little shit."she tells him and follows behind him.
They walk towards a town with a population of five thousand. And like the past ten towns E-7 has been, it too, is located in a dessert If a shithole country. At least this time he managed to steal a m1911 from some fucker and had a firearm, not like three last missions, where he had only a knife.
"He's in that building and will be leaving in ten minutes. I'll seduce him and your job is to follow us and kill anyone, who could be dangerous."
"Yeah. Yeah."he says and disappears into a nearby alleyway, where he has his eyes on the black haired, slutty teen, E-6.
After ten minutes, a man wearing traditional long robes, walks out of the building and so, E-6 gets to job. She walks over to him and says something. She moves her hands to his chest and
*BOOOOOOOMMM*
A loud explosion follows. Shit is flying everywhere and something even managed to hit E-7.
"Holy shit. You dumb cunt."he wipes his clothes off and pulls out the small piece of metal, sticking out of his wrist.
"She fucking activated the bomb vest. How fucking stupid."he says, as he leaves the place, because their target is dead and so the mission failed, because of her.
"I really fucking prefer to work alone."he says, while hitting his ear, because of the ringing in it.
