Chapter 84: merfolk (part 3)

"What? .. what do you mean by that?"

noah didn't want to be rude but that's how he was raised so without thinking twice that his words might hurt her, he stated his opinion.

"Well you are acting a bit selfish. instead of apologizing about your accusive behavior towards the man, you choose to find your people first. "

The woman looks surprise at the green haired's words and tried to explain her side.

"i am just worried that before if i don't find them sooner they might die"

Noah didn't look convinced and started playing at the sleeve's of the woman sleeping beside him

"... i see, the that's a bit stupid of you"

"What? you.. i am not stupid" rose felt angry at the boy's words but decided to show a pitiful expression instead.

"sorry... but i know if ezu was in your situation she would immediately choose to talk to henry first"

"Why?" noah hums lightly and before answering.

"He's the son of the lord. both of them were in the rumor."

"Your point?"

"He can be a valuable piece"

"I don't understand"

"You wouldn't, because you are stupid" noah quietly insulted the woman and refuses to talk to her again.

rose fumed in anger when she was about to complain a calm voice interrupted her.

"we'll help you don't worry" both of them stared at the owner of the voice and saw jasmine walking towards them with a relax smile and calm demeanor.

Her aura is different from the previous her. the woman possesses elegant aura and serene demeanor now than what she was the other day.

noah stared at the woman walking towards them. he can clearly remember that jasmine has a bit of submissive aura around her, one would think that she's being push around them.

It would rare for her to show a brave and noble front but now, it seems like it's normal for her to act superior and one can immediately tell that she's a member of nobility.

"Who are you?" rose asked with her voie filled with hostility.

The woman stop besides the sleeping suzue and smiled at her.

"My name is lilith avaleon. i heard everything you said, i am here to help you"

lilith remembered everything... her past lives as well as her memories when she's lilith.

When she woke up earlier and met a unfamiliar room she unconsciously felt panic and search for her sister.

but saw no one which is new to her considering her sister's personality she immediately assume that the albino would stay beside her waiting for her to wake up.

so she immediately stood up and went downstairs and just happened to hear noah and the woman's conversation.

lilith remembered her past life becasue of the sudden return of her memories. she felt confused and dazed.

but it didn't stop her from deciding to help the woman who she didn't even know.

he's not in jasmine's memory but noah seems to know her. perhaps they just met?

there is no sense of familiarity when staring at the woman so she finally decided to regard her as a woman in distress.

"i might not be strong or a genius but i'll do my best to help you"

Lilith felt the displease emotion on the woman and she tilted her head in confusion.

she didn't know why the woman was feeling displease on her but she didn't said anything and just smiled.

"Don't worry i know noah and suzue can help me no need to trouble yourself"

the woman pitifully said and stared at her with a hit of concern. someone would take her as a kind woman for being worried on a stranger's sake.

and that someone is stupid.

"Don't worry she's my sister. you have no problem of us being with my sister right?"

they were startled when suzue spoke causing them to stare at her and saw her eyes still closed.

"you're awake" lilith smiled gently at her causing her to glance at her and observe her.

One would feel uncomfortable being stared intently at a pair of dull sleepy pink eyes but lilith is used to the albino's weird affectionate habits towards her.

"yeah, i am. so do you have any idea who's behind the lost of the merfolk?"

lilith asked and sat down beside her, in the corner of her eyes she saw ethan walking towards them.

She did't notice that ethan wasn't there with them and just realize that he's in the lobby with them just now.

"you want to help her?."

"Of course i want to ezu. what kind of question is that?"

suzue frown a bit and observe the lady beside her... jasmine never shared her opinion nor express her desire for something this openly.

only one person does that unless...

"lilith?"

"yes?"

oh... suzue took a deep breath and hums lightly.

she felt a sign of relief seeing that her sister finally remembered her.

It might sound harsh considering she felt nothing from not seeing jasmine again but she knows there the same person.

"You ezu, you need to find the person behind the disappearance of the merfolk don't just sit there and do nothing"

she heard the voice of her sister. it was the same as she remembered, gentle and a bit cold.

"but i don't want to help her" suzue silently utter and unfortunately for her.

her sister heard it causing her to get his in her arm.

"You shouldn't be rude. Be kind to everyone suzue after all you should be glad that you have wealth, a complete family, and promising future,"

suzue glance at her and fell in contemplation.

She knows her sister isn't wrong... and she swore to protect and obey her for the rest of her life... well except when she decided to be married off.

or if she decided to be independent.

"Be nice okay?"

she huff and nod and went to close her eyes again.

"SO do you have any idea who's the mastermind?"

"Yes"

"It's fine if you don- what?"

"I said i have"

All of them stared at her as if she's talking nonsense causing her to snicker.

"i've been suspecting her since the day i had breakfast with the lord. that Anne, she sure is wise. however, she's still a kid. foolish and stupid"
