Vision 5 - Handling (1)

Suddenly I understood the whole thing.

I was angry, I don't like being used. I realized the whole situation once I remembered the scene from my dreams.

I did try to connect the situation with all the facts I already knew, but I saw that dream years ago. It was a humane mistake, but I still felt like an idiot.

' How was supposed to know that mother-daughter was Dianne and Charlotte? '

Originally everything was supposed to go the way it was. Dianne was supposed to be on the brink of death in that arena. Then she would have been mysteriously recused and found by Timothy.

The Mystery behind the rescue of Dianna and Charlotte, It was Kafzeil. He used his skill to transport the mother-daughter pair to a safe location. He spent a huge amount of points to save them.

This time that bastard used me to save his points. That is why he was being generous and donated 2000 points. If he had intervened with lower existence like that, he probably had lost five times the points to do that.

" Hey, Are you alright? "

That was the third time Charlotte asked me that question, I moved my gaze back to her. I saw her flinch then I realize that I was frowning, I guess my anger got shown on my face.

" Arthur, What happened? Why are you suddenly so angry? "

Persephone also asked a question of her own. I forgot she could sense my feeling because of the contract. She must have felt my anger. I tried to reply as calmly as possible.

" It was nothing. "

" You can leave. You do not have to look after us. We might just have to go back. "

I looked at the Dianna who spoke those depressing words. Why does she have to be so negative? Can't she have some confidence like her daughter?

Well, I can not really blame her. Her husband was charged with attempted rape. So according to the law, He was sentenced to death and, Dianna was put under a slave contract along with her daughter.

Since then she was fighting in the arena I just saved her from. She had to endure too much for herself and her daughter's survival.

Until now, her life was difficult, but I know her future is bright. She will become stronger and more successful. Once again I looked at her Profile.

+

[ The Active Skill 'Prescient Description' is activated. ]

+

[ Name: Dianne Fedora

Age: 42 years old

Blessing: none ( two are showing interest )

Active Attribute: Jane Foole ( General )

Active skill: Dagger-Weilding Lvl.3, Battle Decision Lvl.1, Absolute Sense Lvl.2, Dual-Blade Lvl.2

Passive skills: Patience Lvl.2, Cautious Lvl.2, Analysing Lvl.1

Overall Stats: Strength Lvl 25, Stamina Lvl 41, Agility Lvl 45, Magic Power Lvl 29

Description: She was 'Jane Faoole' which means she has tremendous potential. Right now because of extreme low self-confidence the growth has been halted.

*Right now the person is under a Slave Contract ]

+

She had an active Attribute as 'Jane Foole' which is a female version of 'Jester'. In her Description it was also written that she had potential but she is too depressed to let herself grow, that will change.

Kafzeil must have had his eyes on her for some time because of her attribute, and when he realized that today she might die facing a stronger opponent, he took action.

I just turned around to show that I had no desire to stay any longer. Well, I didn't want to wait and let that justice freak find me.

" Since you said I can go, I will go, but you probably do not have to go back. Go meet with the officer inside. "

That's right. They don't need to worry about slavery. The squad of Timothy will find some people that are kept here illegally. The shed will shut down today, and all slaves will be taken by Timmothy.

Dianna and Charlotte looked at me with hesitant eyes. They seem to think my answer was odd, Who saves people just to leave them? I ignored their gaze. I didn't do anything, that bastard Kafzeil just took advantage of me.

" Don't mention anything about me, just tell them someone rescued you and left. Got it? "

I don't want a Legion behind me and knowing that justice freak. He will be after me like a dog. Right now I just want to get as far from here as possible.

" If you want to leave. I think you should hurry because someone is approaching. "

Persephone's voice reached my ears. I subconsciously try to move fast, but I could only walk a few meters. I forgot that my stats were back to normal.

" Hey! You people over there! "

' Shit! '

I turned around and saw a tall man with slick back brown hair in military uniform, it was obviously Timothy. I guess he came outside after investigating inside.

Timothy walked toward us. Charlotte was switching her gaze from me to him. Dianna was watching me, she was trying to analyze me. I know she had 'analyze' passive skills, so it was normal.

" State each of your names. "

Timothy reached us and demanded that we give our introduction. Charlotte and Dianna spoke their full name, then all three of them looked toward me.

I could see that the mother-daughter pair was also curious about me. I just saved their lives, after all. Since I had no intention to tell them about myself, I said whatever bullshit came to my mind.

" I am just someone who is new to this country and nobody here knows me. "

[ The existence Timothy Sullivan used active skill 'Word Detection Lvl.2'. ]

[ The 'Word Detection' Skill has found no manipulation in your words. ]

This freak was using his skill on me. His skill was really handy, the skill 'Word Detection' was a kind of inferior version of the 'Lie Detection' skill. Instead of directly telling truth and false, it analyses the words.

" That wasn't the answer to my question. "

Technically I was manipulating my words, but his skill level was still low, and I had an experience. I lived with someone whose basic nature was manipulation for my entire life. So some low-level skills would not be able to detect my words.

" I do not wish to disclose my identity Officer. If you have any questions, you can ask me. "

[ The existence Timothy Sullivan used active skill 'Word Detection Lvl.2'. ]

[ The 'Word Detection' Skill has found no manipulation in your words. ]

See told you, me-1 'Word Detection' Skill- 0.

Timothy narrowed his eyes and tried to analyze me, the other two were the same. I just Ignore them.

Persephone also looked at me and spoke.

" You could become a scammer. You are too calm like nothing matters. "

What is this woman talking about? me? scammer? I am just good at ignoring troublesome people. Persephone was looking at me with an amused smile and closed eyes, she looked like a sly fox.

[ The Nubecula 'Kafzeil' likes your calm attitutde. ]

[ 500 points are donated ]

Suddenly I got 500 points donation. What is this bastard even doing here till now? Doesn't he have some other important thing to do? He is an archangel for god sake. Go, your favorite woman is saved now, leave the channel.

Timothy didn't seem convinced with my answer. He had a stoic expression so it was very hard to read his thought.

' If only I could read his thoughts. '

[ The 2nd-branch skill of ◽◽◽◽ is activating. ]

[ You could read the thoughts of others to some extent. ]

{ This Person seems too suspicious. }

Suddenly, another skill got activated and I was able to hear Timmothy's thoughts. It was another skill that was hidden from me. I couldn't understand why it was happening to me. I can not use my skills if I don't know about them. It was like someone was trying to hide these skills from me.

{ Should I let him go? or Should I arrest him? }

I was brought out of my thoughts because of the thoughts that echoed inside my head. This freak will arrest me for sure if I leave it like this.

I decided not to think about the sudden skill activation and focused on the situation in front of me. Since Timothy was originally supposed to find Dianna and Charlotte. I just want him to take them.

" Come with me for a Second. "

I look towards Timothy with lazy eyes and motion him to come with me to the side, a little farther from the mother-daughter pair. I do not want them to hear what I am going to talk to him.

After going a little farther where I am sure Dianna and Charlotte can not hear us. I spoke to Timothy.

" Listen, Those two are slaves, but they are innocent pair and highly capable. Why don't you just take them and leave, there is no obstruction of justice here. "

I deliberately use the word justice to incite him and my words were genuine.

[ The Prescient Timothy Sullivan used active skill 'Word Detection Lvl.2'. ]

[ The 'Word Detection' Skill has found no manipulation in your words. ]

" I also had no relation to the slavery whatsoever. "

I spoke further so that I could leave without any trouble.

{ ...I still have my doubts.}

{ If it is how he says. why is a completely innocent person is involved here...}

The freak is just too damn suspicious even with his skills. I got an urge to run but I know I could not escape that easily.

" How about I help you with something and you let me go and listen to my request. "

" Help me with something? "

Yes, I remember in his description it said that he was looking for someone. I remembered who it was, she was supposed to be found at this time, anyway.

" You are looking for Viscount's eldest daughter, right? "

The Viscount of demi-human territory was a family of the Tiger tribe. Only the highest position in the demihuman was occupied by a human family, and the rest of the titles were given to the demi-human tribes.

Timothy's eyes became cold, I expected this reaction. A stranger suddenly said he knows where the daughter of Viscount is, it was not very believable, and my situation now didn't help either.

" Before you do something. I should tell you, I have no connection to the lady, and I have never met face to face with her. I just know where she is. "

[ The existence Timothy Sullivan has used active skill 'Word Detection Lvl.2'. ]

[ The 'Word Detection' Skill has found no manipulation in your words. ]

Does he have to use it every time?

" Why should I believe you? "

What is he talking about? His skill just confirmed that my words had no manipulation.

" Don't you want to find her as soon as possible? "

Well, If he takes Charlotte with him, he will find her in three weeks' time. Charlotte will grow her learning skill and will become a historian. After that, she will be able to find her.

I am just making him Find her three weeks sooner. It wouldn't change anything much, and as long as he took Charlotte and Dianna with her and train them, their skills will grow. It is a win-win situation. Now only if this freak agrees to it.

" Okay. "

Fortunately, he did. I nodded my head, this person has some potential for growth as well.

" I will tell you where she is, in return you let me go without causing any problem. You take those two with you and train them as your squad. "

[ The existence Timothy Sullivan has used active skill 'Word Detection Lvl.2'. ]

[ The 'Word Detection' Skill has found manipulation in your words. ]

Technically, it was manipulation but that's how negotiation works, but the person in front of me was too simple-minded, I spoke again as soon I heard his thoughts.

{arrest...}

" It might look like I am trying to manipulate you but all I want is for them to have a good life. It is not like any of us present here are criminals. "

[ The existence Timothy Sullivan has used active skill 'Word Detection Lvl.2'. ]

[ The 'Word Detection' Skill has found no manipulation in your words. ]

He put his hand away from the hilt of the sword. He is too simple-minded when comes to justice. He really needs a 'Common Sense' Skill.

" Okay I accept your deal, So where is Viscount's Daughter. "

I didn't beat around the bush. The sooner I am out of here the better.

" You will find her on Ipritus. "

Timothy's eyes widened a bit. It was understandable. The Ipritus Kingdom of the cloud continent is special.

" In the country of dragons? "

I nodded my head. Calling it a country was a stretch, Dragon as everyone knows is a formidable creature but their population is far too less. They are rare, to say the least.

The whole country was given to them despite their rarity because they are extremely proud creatures. So they don't like to share and like to have large possession. They also don't like associating with others.

They also have the strongest base stats among lower existence.

It certainly was a problem, but it was a problem for him, not me.
