Ellen thought to herself that Joseph is right about it. Atleast devil is rational.
Sasha asked Chika " you would be spying for me from now. You would report each and everything that people are doing around and you would bring that new straight to me cause I am the master of this tribe from now and he nada has renounced his throne."
Chika didn't not say anything at all to Sasha. she had slapped her last time but now she was careful. she didn't want any trouble because Sasha was capable of doing anything.
Sasha punished Chika for her stupidity. why she would even dare to slap Sasha. She apprehended her in the prison for a day and night. and didn't let her eat for thst time period . she kept her starving and when her senses came back, she was then freed by Sasha. Sasha wanted her to do exactly what she say. she wanted her to spy on Maira, to spy on Jerua, the main people with whom Sasha felt danger. she could not be overlook them ever. even Though, there was good relationships between hinata and Sasha but still she could not trust him because of his unstable mental health.
Chika said in an obedient manner that what she wanted her to do right now and she said "you go to the Jerua and asked him that who told him to bring these people to the Hatch."
Chika did not say anything but after a while she asked Sasha " why is this necessary? As far as she knew people just followed him into the hatch because it was raining badly. But Sasha said that "there is more to the story and I don't know it yet but soon I will know because my darling Chika would tell me about this."
Chika passed a fake smile to Sasha and she said that she would go right now to the Jerua and she would ask him that what exactly is the matter. Before going out, Sasha asked her when would she return and she said " just in one hour every report shall be on your desk". Sasha said "fine then, I am waiting for it."
Jerua was in the mainland. he was busy with woods. he was crushing them and making some sharp instruments with it. Chika went to him and asked him that How is he doing and he said that he's fine then she asked "what happened to the people in the hatch what did he do with them."
he said that they went back to their tent houses, they restore it and they started living there again. It's been two days after that heavy rain you know"
Jerua replied in a surprising tone then he asked her that "where she had been for two days" as he could not see her. he was searching for her and she said "don't mind I was busy" but Jerua tried to ask her again, where she had been ,what were her whereabouts? but she said " please don't ask me about this I was just..... was busy in work." She clearly lied about it. She was being prisoned by Sasha in the prison of castle.
Jerua Said "it's alright if you do not want to tell me about it. I myself had been very busy and it's not like this that I had been waiting for you."
She did not replied Jerua.she just asked him
"why did you lead the crowd to the store room of the castle. You know those people were not even allowed there. If anyone had ever inquired you, what you are going to tell them?"
Jerua stayed silent. He said nothing but all he said
"I don't want Sasha to loot all the crops by selling them secretly."
Chika was very shocked. She asked him "please tell me the details of it."
He said " promise me that you won't tell her that I have told you anything about it."
She said she would not tell anything.
Jerua was foolish to tell her the secret he had been carrying along since the fall of the Queen. He had seen Sasha displacing the crops and various other products of agriculture. He witnessed the people who with their horses stopped at the back of hatch, loaded the crops and other precious products and went away secretly. He just knew that Sasha was involved in it. He just couldn't tell anyone.
Chika was very surprised. He said "why did not you complain about it to Hinata or anyone else."
"I just couldn't tell him because Sasha could have easily manipulated him and he could start acting against me. I thought about it a lot but I couldn't find the courage to do so."
"it's alright Jerua, you should Work with your complete senses because Sasha can do anything to get rid of you."
Jerua looked at her and asked "what do you mean, did she say something to you." Chika felt confused in this question and she said "No-N-No, nothing happened."
