Huaaaam—
From the entrance, Zetta who lean his back at the pillar while overseeing every guest and VIP's he saw, yawned out of boredom.
Thereafter, a man from Ganeisha Familia walked towards him and talk about something
Zetta at the same time nodded after hearing the report and think for a better plan again. "I can't let this continue, should I? Else, Shakti will screwed over me" He muttered and remember the day before yesterday
"Tomorrow is the day we explore lower levels. and I wish we succeded in finding their new place to live in" is what she said.
She was talking about Xenos' safety and her God agreed of what she was planning. It was because in the floor 20th, there are many adventurers who can roam freely especially the third class adventurers. And if Xenos lived at lower floors, then they can freely move on their own without disturbung others but of course have to avoide higher class adventurer they'll get doomed, is that what her decision and Zetta also agreed.
Lets turn back the topic. And because, in the accordance to his promise over God Ganeisha himself. Zetta is here at the Casino El Dorado as a representative and proxy of Shakti. Not just a normal guard and representative but also the captain guard of whole Ganeisha Familia that overseeing the Casino. But like any other Ganeisha members, he too cannot enter inside the VIP room of tycoons. Zetta, as a man who can appraised, found out that the man owned this casino is a fraud. In the end, all he have to do is to wait and see, while order the rest to investigate for a while before he make any move.
As he thinking so, a Carriage arrived but he didn't think too much about it and start walking towards the main entrance of casino.
'Damn it, I need an evidence. Theres no way someone blindly believed me that I can see through ones soul like Fels did, right?' Zetta thought, and heard a commotion coming from the carriage who arrived.
There, he saw a girl dressed beautifully
'Syr? what is she doing here!????.. w-w-wait, w-w-why is she here!?'
Not only Syr, Zetta also found an elf-man with an eyepatch besides Syr. More likely, a girl disguised as a man, 'Ryuu!?' Zetta flustered seeing his crush wearing an expensive tuxedo and was— 'M-m-manly than me!?' Is what he thought. Though, he too are wearing an expensive tuxedo gifted by Ganeisha himself, he's no match against Ryuu's charm as a man. Is what he think. Thinking that, he felt depressed.
And because he didn't want any disturbance as his heart are still beating faster than usual and didn't know what have to say right now, he immediately entered the casino but his silhoutte is already seen by Ryuu
'isn't that?! No.. I won't let my undercover be expose' is what she thought, and at the same time, from the side, Syr interwined her arms to hers.
"!!!!" Ryuu was startled but woudn't mind as they started to go in just a few moments.
Meanwhile, Zetta who was still overseeing the casino, found a boy who shouldn't be here
'Damn, what now!? Why is he here of all place!? not only that, when did he enter?' as he saw a boy with white hair and red eyes, surrounded by 3 other adventurers in friendly manner.
Thereafter, another member of Ganeisha Familia came towards him, calling him 'Sir-Zetta'
"We already investigate 5 other tycoons and it looks like, some of them is connected to him, not only that, they might also forged their identity just like him"
Nodded, he replied, "I see, stay vigilant and don't let any of them slip through. Leave those high level alone and don't engage if not neccessary to minimize the casualty. Now, return to work" Zetta response, and because Ganeisha Familia used their manpower to explore lower level dungeons as of today, what remained to guard the casino is only level 1's and level 2's. Thanks for Shakti's speech to 'Obey Zetta at all costs'. They didn't doubt his leadership.
Zetta at the same time, walk towards the two Ganeisha members whose guarding the VIP room and muttered "I'll finish this myself.. don't let any person pass through here" while the two nodded as response.
He, then glance from his side and his eyes met with Ryuu's. He cleched his teeth and move towards them to not look awkwards, but his heart are beating hundred times than normal, louder and louder—in which she's already with Bell and 3 others this time, talking, whom he recognize as the one who beat the little rabbit from floor 18th, Mord and 2 others. But setting those thought aside, he look at Syr besides Ryuu.
"You are so beautiful as ever, Syr" he muttered enough to only heard by them as he look at fully dressed Syr. Afterall, he already knew they were disguising themselves just by looking at Ryuu's 'manly' suit. But why this little elf looking at him menacingly just now?
Syr at the same time, nodded with redened smile
"M-m-master.." Bell talked while stuterring and wanted to say something
"Its okay, I won't tell on your unruly Goddess that you were spending your fortune in here" Zetta replied
"Uwahh! N-n-n-no master, I-I-I didn't spent a single penny! Really!"
'Spent?' He thought.. And no matter what Bell relayed or pleaded that even the poor little guy kneeled, he set him aside the and look towards Ryuu and muffled, "Don't do unneccessary commotion, I'll make a move from here"
Astonished, "W-what do you mean!?" Ryuu questioned and click her tongue as if he saw through her.
"Well, just by looking, you seem like going to attract trouble sooner or later.. and by the way.." and turn around and was about to leave.
"Seems like, you are more beautiful if using dress like Syr, *cough*.. because *cough* you look manly than I am today" he cough and lower his voice at his last sentence.
But in his word 'manly', Bell, Mord and others cough off too.. Syr laugh and restraining them by covering her mouth. Ryuu turned red and pouted, 'That idiot!' Is what she thought.
...
...
...
After a couple of hours, Zetta sneaked at the VIP area and look from here to there..
'Those girls, what kind of drug did they take?' he thought after noticing the hollowed eyes of all beautiful girls that gathered below
But for some reason, at the same roof, he found an elf with an eyepatch "change of plan, I guess" and walk towards him and reach out, one thin crystal bottle
"Ssheesh, theres such an item I never thought exists, where did you get this?" He asks
"That, is my secret.. now, whats the plan?" Actually, before coming here, Asfi of Hermes Familia told her that some of the VIP forged their identity as a noble gambler. So Ryuu carried this item just in case.
"No, enjoy your night below and have fun, this isn't something for you to—"
"—No.. this is also my problem to begin with, if you're not here, I'll do them all by myself"
Ryuu, gave Zetta an
"Thats too straightforward for a plan, I don't think thats worth the shot" is what she said.
"I don't care what kind of process I'll take, whats important is the outcome, in the end, all we have to do is to expose their identity, yes?" Zetta crouched down and looked below, again.
"Cheh!" The elf clicked her tongue. His reasonings are beyond being dumb, is what she thought.
"Now, go back to where you belong, you're not needed here" he said nonchalantly and didn't even glance at her
"Why didn't you let me be the part of this mission!?—"
"—you might get expose"
Ryuu was astound by his words and bit her lower lips
"I checked your invitation card, a Noble from somewhere? Give me a break. That sound stupid", and continued "I don't care what was your plan, but I can't take it if you'll get hurt in the end. So scram, you ain't needed here—Keouk!!" He receive one heavy kick from his face and fell below
"F*ck! Whats your problem!?"
They didn't know because of they were noisy, VIP's are now looking at them and their body guards equipped their weapons simultaneously. Whats more, Zetta fell unto their table from Ryuu's surprised kick.
"Yow~ Oi Ted, wazzup!" Zetta stands up and waved at the big fat dwarf, Terry Cervantes, calling him Ted. Ryuu at the same time snap back to reality after hearing the familiar name and at the same time, didn't understand herself why did she kicked Zetta.
"Khh!? W-w-what who's T-T-Ted?" And was replied by the little dwarf who was stuttering.
Ladies who was abducted, looked at him with hollowed eyes. At the same time, Ted's 2 body guards, dash towards Zetta but he dodge them with hairs breathe.
"Fufufu, taste their power! They were one of the best mercenary that I have, Rollo and Faust! now, kill him!" Says by fake Terry.
"Haha, wow, you two, he's joking right?" Zetta commented while still avoiding his assailants every hit who was sweating cold. One is using metal fists while the other is using dual dagger.
"Lets see, Charl and.. oh Athan, yes?" Zetta pointed, Hearing him, the two, twitched in surprised hearing their true name coming from the stranger 'how come he knew our real name!?' They thought in unison.
"I see, so you are actually 'that' Ted", Ryuu from above, landed near the fake Terry Cervantes
"A-another one!? Thats an acclaimed accusation!! I'm T-T-Terry Cervantes!"
And he thought while being fuzzled 'why!? Why!? Why did they know my true identity!?'
Ryuu at the same time, took out another vial of
At the same time, other bodyguards dash towards her but fail, of course they've been subjugated on the spot as they were only level 1's and 2's, "Faust, Rollo, h-h-help!?" But Ted, wailed in horror of what he witnessed and almost cough up blood. His most expensive body guard are now lying on the ground twisting in pain.
"Hm? Did you said something?" Zetta clasping as if he dusting the dirt off of his hands.
"Y-y-y-you! Who are you people!?" But Ted specifically look only towards Ryuu. The elf then uncovered her left eyepatch and scratches her hair for a couple of times until her true identity revealed, took off a table mantle and cover her head and body.
"Lion!!! Lion the Gale!? Now way! You're already dead!!" aghast, Ted stepped back in horror
While Ryuu, walked towards the big fat dwarf, "Your evil deeds, abducting women through any means possible, I knew it very well whose behind this, and after seeing you, I confirmed them..."
"...Do you know why I turned the blind eye of your evil deeds until this point?.. first, is because I no longer the rights to do any more justice, as that was my pledge after 'that' day.. Second, is because you've been forgiven by Astrea-sama herself after you prostrated.." Ryuu clenched her fists and kicked the man who was about to stab her back, her killing intent grew big as she look towards Ted.
"But then again, you rejected her kindness. Just to satisfy your own greed and lust in which, many lives, from civilians to abducting women. All because of your selfish desire!" Ryuu stretch out her hands towards Zetta at the same time, the latter threw his gloves towards her.
"Debts needs to be paid.. so, in Astrea-sama's place.. I'll pass the judgement on you!!" After wearing the gloves, she dash towards Ted and clenched her fists, hard enough to rip the palm area "clench your teeth!" Saying so, she punch Ted's face, so hard that he slammed through his vault, head first and thrust his body inside to two sections of wall, full of Valis and unconcious. Ryuu, at the same time, walk out of the room and at the same time, Ganeisha Familia rush towards inside after hearing that something's been destroyed.
"Have them 'all' quarantine for now" Zetta commanded while looking at Ganeisha Familia members who nodded as response. Who he was talking about is all of the VIP here. At the same time, many girls form a circle towards him and he accompanied them outside, but as he walk out of VIP area, he saw 3 carts full of chips and at the center was Bell Cranel, and the grinning stoogies, Mord and two others..
After that long night, he receive many confession from majority of the girls thats been liberated, but he turned them all down and only look at menacing Ryuu.. telling them that it was her plan from the start. Also, the Casino are still continuing its business and pass the privilage to its new owner while others happened to be like Ted, who fake their accounts...
Bell Cranel at the same time, was robbed by Zetta for splitting 50-50 of what the little rabbit earned from the casino, because if he didn't, he'll be exposed as a gambler to his unruly Goddess as this was their little secret until the very end.
And thanks to this event, the Ganeisha Familia's fame and popularity, skyrocketed.
And just like that... another half a month passes by. . .
