65: Soft Hearted

The door opens and nana let herself in. She sat down on the chair , while the other side sat a rocking chair with a lady .

Nana ; Ariana.

Ariana just continued rocking in her chair while sewing " all this silence is good. Grateful to you. Have you come to ask for it back ?"

Nana : everyone offered the same thing I did. But you chose me.

Flashback~

Nana : work for me . Me only. No one would ever have to disturb you again.

Ariana : complete silence ?

Nana : yes. I wouldn't ask your help that often . I have my own resources. But when the time calls for it...

Ariana : I'll take it.

End ~

Ariana : you know my ability.

Nana : yes.

Ariana: I've never told you this. But I did a search. The person who can give me the silence I wanted. Few names came up. You're the only one who trades. Dealing and trading is your principle. I was waiting for you.

Nana : not afraid of being coerced ? By someone else.

Ariana : I'll just trade with you to get my freedom

Nana laughed a little " then... Find this for me. You're the only person who can find a location even if it's hidden using spells."

Ariana took out a book. It floated in her hand and split open...

Visco : hmph. The people ilise is looking for , are people who she can turn ?

Howard : basically. She's started to dig.

Visco : fine. Then I'll kill all of them . All of Nana's people.

Howard ; overkill much ?

Rose ; Mr Visco can do whatever he deems fit !!

Howard: whatever. I'm just doing as paid. I'm out

Rose : Mr Visco... Is that really...

Visco : yes. I want it all done by tomorrow morning.

Rose ; that's a lot of people. Including the ones she had favours owed from

Visco ; I have money. Latest, one day later.

Rose : understood. I'll get it arranged.

__________________________________

She had reached the location given by Ariana. The building was drawn with seals . Seals that kept this place hidden from locator spells.

Garlis : Miss.

Nana : .... It's ok.

She walked up the stairs alone and reached the unit which its doors was drawn a big seal. She knocks.

The door opens " you are..." It was rose who was a little shocked " how did you... That's not possible . Even with ilise's help, it should have taken you at least a week."

Nana ; I know someone you don't.

Rose : ... Mr Visco !!

Visco came to the door " what . Oh... " Rose stood aside.

Visco : how ? I took all your favours and deals.

Nana : some you can't take. The kinds that are not transferable, as according to the other party 's wishes and as long as the conditions are met by the first party.

Visco ; what ?

Nana : and also... One thing you can't take away. Even though you've lived long with whoever's help. Something I've earned because I've lived longer than you

Visco : what ?

Rose was looking at her floating screens. She could see people barging in through the doors at different locations and fighting the mercenaries they sent. " Mr Visco !! ... It's her... Nana sent people to kill our mercenaries."

Visco looked to the screens and one of them showed Shadow Demon defeating an entire team on his own.

Nana : impressive. Your ability. Abe to spy so many people at once. You even placed a few of your bugs in my house.

Rose looked to her screens that showed the inside of Nana's house. Someone waved to it. It was Victoria. She reached out to the teddy bear's eyes. It gets crushed. The screen goes hazy.

The vase's painting which had a dancing woman on it. Thrown on the floor.

The watering can which had a doll painting on it. Thrown into the fire

Rose : you knew all this time ?

Nana : not really. Ilise found out about your team. Your ability, you can make any eyes you touch, become your eyes.

Rose : hmph.

Visco ; thank you for your compliment. I choose the right people. How ? You should have no more people.

Nana : I have hearts. They help me based on past grace. The list I have for ilise. Was to distract you so that I could find my friend.

Visco ; I have not lost yet.

Nana : let my people go. I know you've locked up the people who work for me.

Visco ; correct. I'll burn all of them.

Nana : let them go !!! Why are you doing this ?!! You want to destroy me. You want to hurt me. Then ... Hurt me. Me !!

" Alright. " And a knife comes out and stabs her right in the chest. She was shocked. It was a little too sudden. He pulled out the knife . She walked backwards and held her gushing wound. She collapsed to sit on the floor.

Nana : let... Them ... go...

Visco : no. I'll burn them. All of them.

" WHY ?!!!" Her tears fell as she screamed.

Visco ; you know... You look like those people whom you've destroyed.

Nana looked into his eyes as tears fell.

Visco ; Love you ? No. You're just stupid enough to fall for it. I just act and seem really close to him. Don't I ? You just miss him too much . *Shrugs* What can I do ? Old woman are easy to bluff. Especially one that's over 500 years old.

" haha... This is karma ? .... Let them go ... Please. " She took down her hat and dug around " none..."

" You think I would leave you any potions. You honestly trust me too much. To not even check , and come. " He then walks past her and down the stairs.

Garlis sees visco and rose . But not nana.

Garlis : where's my Miss !!

Visco ignored him and just sat in his vehicle and left with rose.

That's when garlis saw artietra help nana down the stairs. Garlis went over " Miss !!"

" Fuck this..." She pushed artietra aside and collapsed to lie on the road. "

Garlis ; let's go to the hospital. Or an apothecary. Or a healer.

Nana : I got you your artietra back.

Garlis : ok. But we need to...

Nana : fuck it !!! He's... Going to burn all of them. Those who work for me. Have my emblem. Artietra doesn't have it, so he let her go. Garlis...

" What ?" He asked. She took his hand " I let you go. You're free." The emblem on his palm floats up and shatters.

Garlis : no no no. You can't do this !!

Nana : I can't... Save them... The emblem they have will burn them.

" Idiot." An old man walked out from his candy store. " Don't die here. In front of my store."

This old man was the same old man Shadow Demon visited one of the nights ago .

" Sorry..." And she closes her eyes.
