Chapter 435: Vol 10: Solving A Problem

Oya didn't take long to go into her warehouse and retrieve what she needed. She knew she couldn't take this issue lightly, so she hoped she could solve this problem caused by Ibro's absence. 

This time, she felt how heavy was the load Ibro was burdened with, as she now felt the same burden. Just as she left the warehouse, she got a notification of a friend request, which she accepted without delay.

'System prompt: Player Darky has sent you a friend request, would you agree or refuse?'

'System prompt: Player Darky has sent a request for video call, shall you receive it or deny it?'

Oya didn't hesitate to accept the call. Immediately, a middle aged player appeared in front of her, he was a magician just like her with long staff and bald head. This was the first time meeting this man, so she didn't know how to call him.

"Hi Oya, it's me Darky, the Armonian ambassador at Hept. It's my honor to meet you."

Darky knew exactly how important this player to Ibro, as he knew all the details regarding the action of Ibro and the real reason behind all of his actions. This young girl was the one who drove the most mysterious player in the game to move out from the shadows and be seen by the whole world.

"Hi Mr. Darky, it's my honor to meet you."

From the first moment of their small talk, Oya felt tense already. She was used to leading armies of players, but dealing with politicians like this one was a tedious job for her.

"I know you are very busy right now, so I will get straight to the point, where is Ibro?"

Oya knew if she lied in front of this expert she would get busted, so she didn't try to evade the question or give a fake answer as she said:

"He isn't in this world anymore."

The face of Darky didn't change but he felt great shock when he heard her answer, as he tried to confirm his guess:

"Is he dead?"

"No, he is still alive."

"Sorry Miss Oya, I don't understand what you mean."

Oya didn't own the exact answer to the question Darky was asking, and if she knew the answer she wouldn't tell him either. She wasn't obliged to tell him any secret of any kind, so she ignored this point as she said:

"This isn't important for you, what you really care about is the deal between you and Ibro, I will fulfill this deal in his place."

Draky remained silent for a while as he was trying to see through this girl. He knew her words were true, but he felt there was a deeper secret, a secret that was beyond any of his expectations. He knew if he went back to his superiors with this secret he would gain much, so he tried to probe:

"The deal between us and Ibro is a classified matter, how can you confirm your ability to fulfill it?"

"I have the Apidon coins and the return scrolls to Renalt world, so you can be assured of my ability to do Ibro's part of the deal."

Darky confirmed his previous guess, this girl had seen the secrets that Ibro had, so he decided to go slightly overboard as he said:

"Can we add more to the deal then? We desperately need more info regarding the truth of this game."

Oya was surprised by the words of Darky, as she didn't expect this man to be greedy. While she was confused, he added:

"We are considered allies, as Ibro stated this clearly with his meeting with my president. As an ally, you need to help us know more info early on, so we can be well prepared and help you in the future as well. I'm sure that Ibro wouldn't refuse helping us."

He was a very experienced diplomat, as his words pressured Oya more to feel deep regret for not having 205 with her in this meeting. She knew that Ibro tried to get Armon's help, but she also knew how hesitant he was regarding telling them what he knew.

"I'm sorry, some info is just dangerous to know. You will know some of the game truth when you send someone to the Apidon world."

Although she declined his request he didn't feel any regret, as she just gave him a piece of info without knowing that. He felt lucky that he met her and not 205, as the latter was the one who attended Ibro's meeting with his president. 

Now, he got himself a new knowledge that he would transfer to his superiors. The journey to the Apidon city is a journey to a new world, as they thought this city was in this game world but hidden as an advanced city in the game. 

He also got more info, as by going to this world they would know more about the truth of this game, which meant they would build all their strategies after sending a single man to test things first. He didn't show his happiness of getting this valuable info while saying:

"No problem, can you now show me the coins and return scrolls?"

This was the most important thing right now, so Oya simply took out one Apidon coin and one return scroll to Ronat city and shared their content to him. Once he saw these two description, Darky's eyes lit up for a brief moment and then it returned to normal. 

Oya didn't notice such change, which was caused by his discovery of a new info that he didn't get before. Oya had shown him a return scroll for a different city than the one Ibro told them about, which made him feel gladder he was dealing with this kid right now instead of that fox named Ibro.

"That's good, can you send me these coins and scrolls?"

He tried to play it smart to gain more from her, but this time he failed as she said decisively:

"You will get them when you fulfill your part of the bargain."

"No problem, we will continue to supply Hept with game capsules, and in two days top we will finish covering the whole population."

Oya replied simply:

"When that time comes, you send me a message and I will confirm everything first, then I will send the coins and scrolls to you."

"Deal."

They then closed the call as Oya breathed a sigh of relief, she was very stressed. Darky, on the other hand, was very excited as he got many valuable intel, so he logged off immediately as he went to tell his superiors about what he had just learnt without any delay.
