Testing the water

The moment they heard Loki's words, they couldn't react.

They might have expected this day, but they didn't expect it to be so soon.

This was also the reason why they couldn't react for a while.

Even Riveria, Finn, Gareth, Ais, Tiona, Tione, and many others couldn't say anything for a while.

If Bete was here, he would also react the same.

After all, the Loki Familia was no longer behind the Freya Familia.

With Tsukasa, their Familia had overtaken the Freya Familia!

While there were many things they had to do, especially with their plan to attack the Evilus just around the corner, they planned to have a party!

"Go! Go! Let's have a party! Let's go to the Hostess of Fertility! Someone quickly tells the owner of the Hostess of Fertility for me, we are all going to host a party there!"

Loki shouted.

"Yes!"

They quickly reacted and ran in the direction of the Hostess of Fertility.

"Hey, who is going to pay for it?" Finn sighed after holding a party outside, and inside was different. Having a party at the Hostess of Fertility wasn't cheap!

Yet Finn didn't stop it since having a Level 7 was something they should celebrate!

Finn would be lying if he wasn't excited!

"Don't worry, I will treat everyone," Tsukasa said calmly. Anyway, the only thing he didn't lack was money. After all, he had stolen many treasures from the Ishtar Familia, and no one thought he had robbed them, which made him able to keep the majority of Ishtar's treasures.

The only thing that he didn't get was the land, properties, and shops since they were taken by Aisha.

Tsukasa also told her to keep it since if the entertainment district was lost, many people would be troubled, especially those Amazoness who had lost the

"WOOOOOO!!"

Everyone shouted excitedly.

"Gahaha! This old man is going to drink a lot!" Gareth was also happy and laughed so loud.

The party was settled, but it wouldn't be held until night, so the executives started their discussion about the key for the Knossos.

"Tsukasa, have you finished it?" Finn asked.

"That's right." Tsukasa nodded and said, "I have crafted the replica." He took out the orb-like thing with a D symbol in the middle and put it on the table, so everyone could see.

"So this is the key?" Loki asked while looking at it curiously.

"You only need to press the button, and you can control most of the functions on the Knossos."

"How is that key working?" Riveria asked for the main point.

"By sending a unique magic frequency."

Frankly, making the replica of the key to the Knossos was so simple since he only needed to find the right magic frequency. The only problem was the materials needed to make the key. Fortunately, Finn took the group to gather the materials for him.

"Can you make them again?" Finn asked about the most important matter.

"It's possible, but you should know that if you use two keys at the same time, the door won't be opened since it will give a different magic frequency."

Tsukasa needed to remind them how the key was working first since, on this attack, no one was allowed to make a mistake since one mistake could lead to death.

Last time, they made many mistakes, and while no one was killed, Tsukasa lost one of his arms.

If they made a mistake again, what would they do?

Using his arm again?

Impossible!

So this time, they shouldn't make mistakes!

They made a note in their hearts by not using the keys at the same time.

"Still, I plan to make the surprise attack tomorrow before our real battle. I am also going to test my replica in case something happens."

"Okay."

Finn agreed, but he asked, "But you have to bring a group with you. Don't do it alone." Even if Tsukasa was a Level 7, it was better to attack in a group instead of alone. While he knew that this group might not help much, he felt it was still necessary since if something happened, this group could help Tsukasa.

After all, no one could predict the future.

"I don't mind, but who is going—"

"Me! Me! I will follow, Tsukasa!" Tiona raised her hand without hesitation.

"No, you should stay in Tiona." Finn shook his head and said, "Ais, can you go with him?"

"Okay." Ais nodded without hesitation.

"Why?" Tiona complained.

"It's better to be in a small group instead of attacking in a large group."

After all, this was just testing, and if possible, they should also make the complete map of the Knossos since their plan to attack the Evilus was about to start.

While the Ishtar Familia caused their plan to attack the Evilus to be postponed, they still planned to attack the Knossos to eliminate the hidden danger in the Orario. The group was ready, and once they confirmed Tsukasa's replica was working, they planned to attack directly.

"Oh, right, please keep the matter that I can make a replica of the key a secret."

Tsukasa needed to remind them.

"Why?"

"....."

Tsukasa looked at Tiona, who asked that question subconsciously, speechlessly.

"It's because there might be a spy among all the groups that are going to join on the expedition to exterminate the Evilus later." Finn helped Tsukasa explain. "If you blabber that Tsukasa can make a replica of the key, they might make a desperate attempt to commit suicide together." His eyes flashed in coldness, and he said, "Why don't we let them think that we only have a limited key, so they will let down their guard, giving us a chance to eliminate all of them."

"......"

Everyone must admit that Finn was ruthless.

Yet this was also part of the reason why they followed him.

"Also, let me add something."

"What's wrong, Tsukasa?"

Everyone looked at him curiously.

"It's just speculation, but there's this enemy that is still hiding in the dark." Tsukasa looked at everyone and said, "This person might be part of the group that is going to join us to eliminate the Evilus."

"...What?"

Everyone felt a coldness on their necks.

They didn't fear the enemies in front of them. Instead, they feared the enemy who was hiding in the dark and even disguised themselves as their friends, giving them a stab in the back during an unexpected time.

"Do you know who it is?" Loki asked with a frown.

"No." Tsukasa shook his head and said, "It's also why I want to keep the fact I can craft the replica of the key to the Knossos as a secret. In other words, we can't make a mistake."

"Yes!"

They nodded, hearing his words.

It might be his imagination, but he felt he had become a leader of the Loki Familia somehow.

"By the way, are you going to bring Haruhime?" Riveria asked.

Haruhime's magic was obvious to all.

Her magic was powerful, and she could become the greatest support.

Tsukasa shook his head and said, "She lacks experience. After my attack tomorrow, I plan to bring her to train, so she won't be nervous during the time."

They nodded and left the matter of Haruhime to Tsukasa since he was the one who brought her, and they also knew that he was also a master at training someone.

"Well, enough of this matter now. How about we have a party?"

"OOOOOOOHHHH!!!"

They screamed in excitement again.
