Chapter 92: Danger Lurks (1)
Chapter 92: Danger Lurks (1)
Kuso followed the empress as the rest were talking to each other with the Albedos who were still remained awkward as both of them had seen their own another timeline version. But, as for Kuso, she walked together with the empress to the outside of the palace until, at that place, they have seen the peaceful garden with many birds which freely roaming inside out.
And the peaceful river which flowing on its water artificially from the top left of the empress's point of view, to Kuso's bottom right point of view as it flows diagonally...
At that place, it was a peaceful artificial forest which led the empress to remark,
"You can see it yourself, right? It did not even sound creepy..."
"Wait... You can speak English?" Kuso looked at her shockingly, and it led her to say.
"I was an aide of Odin. Reincarnated for countless years ago from Japan and I was working in a foreign company when I was a human there, I mean. I'm half Egyptian which is why my name kinda looks like a certain empress in the pharaoh era. At that time. Odin was stagged everything all along by asking me to riot the world, to make this world to have someone who capable to protect with."
Kuso was trying to understand her by focusing her attention on her. Then, she continued to speak,
"And it turned out that Michina disagreed with that option. However, I remember that he was too old to govern. His body, everything. It was all rust like the iron that rusted. Thus, he remained that straight for eons. However, they are just like us, mortals. They need to retire as well. This is why that he stagged all of this. And this is also the reason why Albedo in your era goes hostile. Albedo in my era wasn't knowing that fact that I was aligned with her. But, she knew that I'm shared the same boat with him. Still. It was not even a good idea to go with."
"Yup, just like a tech guy who had said. `Everything can be calculated and accountable as long as there is data that exists on it`" Kuso replied to her promptly after she had said so. Thus, she commented Kuso as she said,
"And you talked like my son."
Suddenly that Kuso reminisced herself as a male who was in his study.
He remembered that there was a motherly tone that was...
"Happy to know that. But, my mother was Indonesian. So yeah."
"Ufufufufu! Of course, Kuso. Then, you know at last right, that both I and Odin had talked together to create this scene. In order to make us forgotten and then, let the twins govern this world and made it into a new place. And I'm the first generation Technoknight who known as the Dragon Mortals."
"Dragon Mortal? I think I have seen that literature before when I was on the earth. Either way, I'm reincarnated as well just like you. And we are from the same place. Anyways, I remembered someone who has a similar vocal antic to you. Are you the final pharaoh?"
Cleopatra shook her head, and then. She replied,
"There is no way I know such thing like memes, r^&dit, t&itter, I&@tagram, and so on if I'm not sharing the same era with you. Rather, I would like to know which timeline you were from in the earth?"
"I'm from the year 2020," Kuso answered her question. Thus, the woman talked to her as she said,
"What a coincidence, I was a forty years old woman who worked as a diplomate before I died for that airplane crash during my course in Indonesia. And I died at that time as well. Well... I should learn about swimming at my younger times. It was such a shame when I realized that I died in such away. But, I ought to thank Odin for saving me. Still for now. That wouldn't be a longer issue. The issue now will be what happened in the next millennia."
"You mean?" Kuso asked her which led the empress to say,
"Be careful with Anna. She may have the same goal as her younger twin. But she aimed for supremacy over the heavenly realm. In other means, she will make sure that she will wipe all of the half-blood in this world. My god authority will soon fade as Odin had left the world. And it was in the same as I will be lost my authority, my mortality, for good. And it was only a matter of time that it will have happened to me. So, listen to me, Kuso!"
"Why do you trust me that much?" Kuso asked her suspiciously which led her to say it as she stated,
"We are the same countrymen. My father, who was the military guy in Japan had told me that the fellow Japanese shall have faith in each other as a unity. Albedo wasn't reliable enough, and Duran has to be fair. Yet, you have a reliable partner like that demihuman which eases my heart when I'm seeing that the half-bloods were doing fine. "
That word alone had blown Kuso off with the empress's willpower to fake everything for justice. She didn't know that the woman had done this lot of things that could lead her to be sent to hell for eternity. Yet, she did it anyway.
As an honest person who never lied in her life, she judged that this woman should have faced so many sufferings alone from lying. But, as someone who knows psychology, she knew that the woman wasn't lying at all. It led her to comment at her in a stern tone.
"You should not hide this anymore. In fact, I fought Anna twice."
Cleopatra was shocked upon the statement being blurted by Kuso herself, it led her to look at the dark skies with stars coloring on them. And then, her brown eyes were being clearly radiated by the moonlight. Thus, she looked at the Technoknight and she said,
"I guess... Albedo had managed to get an exceptional Technoknight, huh?"
"What?" Kuso questioned back to the empress's as she had seen her pointy nose with her brown skin that was seen clearly as if she was not a native at all. And then, her thin lips with well-rounded ears had been seen clearly in her eyes.
And she answered Kuso in her radiating beauty despite her age,
"You are an exceptional Technoknight who capable to understand mortal's feelings and a sense of justice that led you capable in defeating the heavenly being, and I believe, it's the time at your era for the reformation."
"I don't get it. But first of all. I want to know what Technoknight is as Albedo didn't explain this to me clearly. And why did you say that I'm an exceptional one?"
Cleopatra moved towards the Temple-shaped gazebo with a flat sitting place that dwelled there. And then, she stepping the ceramic of the gazebo, and she sat on the top right of it. Thus, she requested,
"Come here, Kuso."
Without any suspicious feeling of her, Kuso walked towards the gazebo as well and she sat at the top right as she could be able to look at the empress.
Then, the empress started to talk.
"Both Technoknights and Dragon Mortals were the same. The ones who acquired the power from the god or goddess to save the world. But, there was a difference between those. One as a dragon mortal, there was a saying that only one dragon mortal who will remain survived until the end of the line of that being. But, Technoknights were designed to die and left a legacy for everyone in the world. You know what I mean, right?"
Kuso nodded which led her to continue,
"And I hope you understand that you will be destined to die since one Technoknight's life could be able to mortalize a god or goddess's life. By other means, you are the only one who Albedo could rely on now upon defeating her older twin sister. The corrupted one. And you can say that alongside Zadkiel, she is the fallen god as well."
Then, she sighed. In her very own expression, she wished that she would not need to talk about it. However, the circumstance had forced her to do so which led her to say,
"And you have to know that killing Anna means that Albedo will be killed as well."
"What do you mean by that, Cleopatra?"
Cleopatra sighed. Thus, she had to be resolute to state it which led her to say,
"They shared the same soul."
