Chapter 93

[Third Person's PoV]

Cid sat on the made up throne Gamma has created inside the Company looking down on the others as they knelt before him.

"I need a disguise to participate in the god of war festival" Cid said smiling towards them while leaning on his hand.

"Um lord husband forgive me for being rude but why do you need our help with that? That's something you should be able to do normally" Gamma asked a bit anxiously, afraid of having troubled Cid with her question.

"I need it to be the identity of a known person for it not to be too suspicious and knowing you I'm sure that you must have a long list of identities that I can use" Cid explained.

Gamma nodded her head, finding it reasonable, "It shall be down, is there anything in particular you are looking for? To narrow down the search"

"He has to he blind"

Gamma looked slightly confused as she tilted her head and asked, "Why my lord?"

Cid just continued smiling as he said, "Don't worry about it", 'I'm bored and thought it would be fun, but she doesn't need to know that, especially with everyone still here'

Gamma scared that she might have offended Cid with her constant questioning apologize, "Forgive me for prying my lord"

Cid simply sighed and rolled his eyes, "You're my wife you can pry all you want"

Gamma blushed and held her cheek as she swayed side to side while giggling to herself, "Hehehehe, he called me his wife"

She blushed even further when she realized that Cid was looking at her with a hint of amusement. She cleared her throat quickly changed the subject, she reached out her hand as she demanded, "The documents"

One of the girls stood up and handed Gamma a stack of papers, she went through the stacks of paper with a thoughtful expression. She proceeded to take out a sheet from the pile and read out the name.

"This one seems alright, Julius Blindman"

Cid looked at her expecting her to say she was joking or something but seeing her serious expression the corner of his lip and eyebrow started twitching.

"You're serious?"

Gamma looked at Cid in confusion before handing him the sheet of paper with the information.

Cid looked at the sheet of paper in front and sighed inwardly, 'What is seriously wrong with this world'

Cid then started reading the information, 'Julius Blindman, 16 years old, deceased from the same illness that left him blind. He's pretty short standing at 5'10 feet, but he'll do' he thought to himself.

Gamma then snapped her fingers which summoned Nu with a makeup kit in her hands, "If you don't mind, I'm sure Nu would be a great help, she's a great makeup artist"

Nu looked at Cid expectantly, hoping to be able to use her expertise and help her master.

Cid seeing her eager expression, he nodded his head as he can feel that they want to be of use to him even if it's something as simple as applying a disguise to him.

Nu happily skipped her way towards Cid and started applying everything creating a large cloud of make up over him. When the cloud vanished It was as if there was a different person standing there.

Cid now looked shorter, his black hair was shorter, he was wearing a white cloth over his eyes giving him the appearance of someone that couldn't see.

Nu then pulled out a mirror from simply out of nowhere and held it up towards Cid. Nu started to blush when she realized that Cid couldn't see his appearance due to the cloth and reached over lifted the side slightly to give him a view.

Cid nodded and patted Nu's head which cause her blush to intensify and smile from ear to ear, "Good job Nu"

Cid then smirked to himself as he conjured a cane, "Well its time I registered myself, I'll see you guys later"

With a puff of black smoke Cid disappeared from their view

…

Julius Blindman was seen walking through the streets making his way towards the registry with a black walking stick leading him the way.

Seeing the direction he was going the bystanders couldn't help themselves and gossip.

"Is he seriously going, where I think he's going?"

"He must have a death wish or something"

"Maybe he can't take being blind anymore and wants to off himself using the festival."

"Poor bastard I almost pity him"

"One of them is going to be lucky it looks like whoever is going to fight him is going straight towards the next round"

Julius smirked himself hearing all of their comments, 'I can now understand why the other Cid did most of the things he did, this is quite fun.'

As Julius walked inside the colosseum, I hand reached out and tried to grab his shoulder but he simply sidestepped out of way shocking her.

Annarose, who reached out towards Julius was at first surprised but decided to call out to him instead, "You're in the wrong place, I can help you find your way if you're lost"

But Julius didn't pay her any mind and just continued walking.

"Hey, I'm talking to you" Annarose called out once again reaching out her hand but as she did she missed as Julius sidestepped once again.

"Stop moving around, I'm only trying to help you due to your disability. My name is Annarose and I don't think you're supposed to be here"

"I'm exactly where I need to be don't worry about it" Julius said as he held his walking stick in front of him.

A bald, broly and tanned looking man wearing an eyepatch approached them causing Julius' walking stick to hit his foot, "Hey twerp you should listen to what she's telling you, this place isn't for someone like you.

I'm Quinton, a regular at these festivals. I always see people like you, trying to prove to the world that they could still fight even with there disabilities but all it ends up doing is is getting them killed"

"You mean to say he's intentionally here to register" Annarose asked.

Quinton scoffed, "Of course he is, this isn't the first this has happened, though this is the first where someone so weak looking has done it, all the others were professionals that have gotten into accidents later in life leaving them disable.

He still looks like he need his mother's help to cross the street. So why don't you save her some pain and leave while you still can little kid"

"If you're a regular here that means you've kept losing causing you to come back, so your advice is unwarranted, I may be blind but I'm not deaf and the last thing I want to hear is your useless yapping" Julius snapped back and continued walking.

Some of the onlookers that were present waiting to sign up started laughing, "Hahahaha! Hear that Quinton, even though he's blind he's still looking down on you!"

Hearing that cause the others to laugh even louder.

Tick marks appeared all over Quinton's bald head as he cooked his fist back and threw a punch towards the back of Julius' head.

Julius turned his head to the side causing the punch to miss, he grabbed Quinton's fist and pulled him forward. Julius then used the walking stick causing him to trip and land face first into the ground.

Seeing this the others laugh and pointed towards Quinton while Annarose narrowed her eyes towards Julius.

'Is he truly blind?' She thought to herself as she saw Julius walk away and make his way towards the registry.

Julius stood in front of the lady with a list of papers in front of her and played his part as being blind, "Can you tap the line where I need to sign"

The lady looked at him weirdly but it wasn't her job to care so grabbed the pen and started tapping Julius grabbed the pen and sighed his name and walked away.

While Annarose looked at Julius is confusing, 'So he is blind?'. She went towards the registry and before the Lady put away the sheet that Julius sighed she saw the name that was written down, "Julius Blindman… so that's his name I better remember that"
