145 Valdel's contemplation

While Ren and Hilda were planning how to flush out the assassin that uses curses, Valdel was in his dorm room feeling lost. Zwei and Nika tried consoling their master, but Valdel blocked their mental link. This move of his was an indirect order from their master to leave him alone. As beings that were in a master-servant contract with Valdel, the two decided to stop bothering their master and simply watch as events unfold. 

Kuro also tried to console Valdel, but she was ignored by Valdel he didn't even bother looking at her. Knowing that no matter what she did she wouldn't be able to get through Valdel in his current state, Kuro decided to find Valdel's allies. She remembered her master had two people that might help him in this situation, the stoic woman and the scary smiling guy. Those two especially the scary smiling guy were really famous right now, so it would be easy to find them if she asks around.
