âYour lover,â Ronald answered.
It brought a look of shock to Pucchiâs face as she didnât know how to respond for a good time.
âAreâ¦..are you sure?â She asked for confirmation as her voice stammered.
âYes, you only need to say yes, and after the end of the mission, you will get your lover,â Ronald replied.
âI donât believe you. Make a vow,â Pucchi commented. Hearing the reward, she straight away agreed to the quest. There was nothing more important than her love for him.
âDo what I tell you to do,â The next moment, the voice rang inside Ronaldâs head.
Ronald got curious about the voiceâs comment. But since it was a revered figure in his mind, he didnât care for the reason.
âFine, letâs make a vow,â Ronald commented.
Pucchi heaved a sigh of relief as the mission she was going to take would mentally drain her completely. She couldnât trust the words of someone and commit the quest for years.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The next moment, Ronald started drawing a pattern of a lock in the way the voice told him to do.
Pucchi silently stood there and watched the progress.
In the end, a lock appeared with a thunder imprint on it.
âI promise to fulfill my words to her if she will successfully complete the quest,â Ronald vowed. He then bit the tip of his finger and put it above the lock, only to take it away when it absorbed the drop of his blood.
âYour turn,â Ronald then looked toward Puchhi.
Pucchi also bit the tip of her finger and fed the drop of her blood to the lock.
The next moment, the lock separated into two separate locks, with each having a similar imprint of the thunder. They then entered both Ronald and Pucchi.
A thunder then appeared in the sky and announced the successful vow.
âWhere do you want me to take the boy?â Pucchi asked the hooded figure. Her tone was casual since the vows had been completed, and now she didnât need to fear a betrayal.
âHere,â Ronald answered as he lightly tapped Pucchiâs head. The next moment, a location appeared inside her mind.
Pucchi nodded.
Time flew by.
Pucchi succeeded in kidnapping her nephew since Turtaâs parents never expected Pucchi to do this, and the relationship between Pucchi and Rutthi was also very strong.
âMaster, whatâs your next order?â Ronald asked the voice in his head since the mission of Turta was time-consuming.
âKill the parents of the boy,â The voice ordered.
âEh! Are you serious?â Ronald exclaimed in surprise and asked.
âYes, the boyâs father can provide a challenge in the future, so we need to kill him here unless trouble arises in the future.â
âWhat about the vow?â Ronald asked.Ã
âNo need to worry about that.â
Since the owner of the voice was a revered figure in Ronaldâs mind, he didnât dare to refuse the order.
He then disappeared from the place. The next moment, he appeared at the door of Rutthiâs house.
âKnock!â
âKnock!â
Ronald, covered in a cloak, knocked on the door like a gentleman instead of barging into the house.
âClick!â
A few seconds later, the door opened as a female Earthen Troll opened the door.
âWho-â
âI am here to talk about your son.â
Rutthiâs eyes were swollen from tears and lack of sleep. Since she didnât recognize the guest due to the cloak, she wanted to ask the identity, but Ronald cut her sentence midway and used the kidnapping of Turta as the point.
âROTANA, COME HERE,â Rutthiâs eyes went wide open as she yelled. It was the name of her husband and Turtaâs father.
âWhat happened?â Rotana came running straight away.
Since Pucchi had kidnapped their son, Rotana had been on his edge, thinking about his wife.
âTHIS PERSONÃ IS HERE TO TALK ABOUT OUR DEAR BOY,â Despite Rotana standing next to her, Rutthi shouted as she couldnât control her emotions.
Rotana had the same reaction as Rutthi as he stared at the person covered in a cloak. He had a bad feeling looking at the person, but his heart told him not to care about it after hearing about Turta.
Rotana and Rutthi then requested Ronald to come in. Ronald accepted their gesture and stepped foot inside the house.
While walking back, Rotana had to grab Rutthi as her entire body was shaking.
âPLEASE, TELL ME ABOUT MY DEAR BOY,â Rutthi asked. Tears continuously streamed out her face while her voice was agitated.
âYour sister kidnapped your son,â Ronald calmly answered, unfazed by Rutthiâs reaction.
âWhy?â Rotana asked. While taking, he continued gently rubbing Rutthiâs back to calm her down.
A grin spread across Ronaldâs face behind the cloak as he answered, âBecause I told her.â
He then disappeared from his spot and appeared right in front of Rotana. He grabbed his large head and crushed it like it was nothing.
Rutthi, who was too shocked to understand what was going on after Ronaldâs confession, was the next target.
Ronald punched, aiming at her head.
The next moment, it exploded like a watermelon as the blood and brain matter spread across the house.
âHow could people of this level be any challenge for us?â Ronald asked the voice as it didnât even take him a second to kill the duo of Rotana and Rutthi.
âShit!â A shocked curse rang in Ronaldâs head.
Before Ronald could understand what was going on, he noticed a wave of pain attacking him.
A few seconds later, he blacked out.
When he opened his eyes, he wasnât in Rutthiâs house but in one of the worlds inside the space ring.
âUgh, master,â Ronald called out to the voice as he groaned in pain.
In response, Ronald only got silence.
âMaster?â He called the voice out again, but this time also, there was no response.
He, with a slight struggle, stood up. His eyes then turned to the ground. His eyes and mouth flew wide open in shock, reading the content.
It was a message from the voice, telling him that it wonât be able to help Ronald further, and Ronald would have to free him on his own.
Time flew by.
Ronald couldnât help but sigh, remembering the past six hundred years. His eyes then turned to the gate, where there was a sudden stop.
âI would free you, master,â Ronald muttered as he touched the surface of the place where the keyhole was there previously.
