Chapter 72 - -71<Grand Plan-1>

{So as we now have all the ingredients that we need, tell me, Arvin, how would you proceed?} Loki asked Arvin. He had now returned to his inn and was now sitting at his bed thinking about the rune formation that he would need to write on the metal vase. 

'It will be quite a difficult rune formation. From what I have observed that egg permeates a very awful smell that makes a person with little strength faint. So I would need a container that would not let the air from inside the vase escape outside. Similarly, I would need a formation that could let me inhale the foul smell…' Arvin mumbled as he thought about the combination of runes that he would need in the formation…

??

{Yeah… And for your information that egg does not permeates awful or foul smell…. The word that you are looking for is poisonous… It permetates poision.} Loki said. 

'Hmm… It permeates poison… So maybe I was thinking that maybe I should use the Horbus formula and make a rune formation that could…. Wait… Did you said that this egg, with me, that I need to eat… is poisonous?' Arvin asked.

{Funny… Did I not mention that fact before? No, I think that I did. You just forgot about it.} Loki said.

'I did not fu*king forgot about it! I have an eidetic memory. I remember and see everything… And you sir… YOU ARE TELLING ME THAT I HAVE TO EAT A POISONOUS EGG TO GAIN STRENGTH? ARE FU*KING INSANE?' Arvin roared from anger…

{Woah… You are acting like I am a villain here.} Loki said.

'YOU ARE!'

{…}

'You seriously want me to eat a poisonous egg? What kind of power would I get if a die?'

{Well if you eat that egg, then you will gain poison affinity.} Loki added.

'So what would poison affinity would mean? I can make my mana poisonous?' Arvin said sarcastically.

{Yeah. That's about it.}

'Wait really?... So how would poison… but… what kind of power will that be?' 

{Ok, so I can give a hint… So have you seen one piece?} Loki asked.

'Yes…'

{Then so you remember Magellan?} Loki asked.

'I don't much about woman's clothing… And I have never heard about a dress called Magellan. But where are you going with this?…' Arvin asked.

{….}

'So what is the analogy that you would use this time?' Arvin asked as he was curious.

{Forget about one piece. Now listen to me carefully. After eating the egg you will gain the affinity of the poison of jormungandr. It is the most powerful poison in the world.} Loki said.

'Jormungandr… Isn't that the name of your son?' Arvin asked.

{Yes. It is.}

'So you are trying to say to me that your son sends me his egg… And eating that egg would give me his poisonous powers…' Arvin said.

{Yes…}

'And this egg is his?'

{Yes… Where are you going with this?} Loki asked.

'YOU SICK F*CK! You are actually making me eat your grandchild?' Arvin exclaimed…

{….}

.....

From the next day, Cassandra started using her skills to know about the personalities of the people from the Aurora tribe. She wanted to create a perfect report for Arvin so that it could elevate her status in front of Arvin. She wanted to prove to Arvin that she is the kind of girl that works very diligently and she could be useful in the future.

Cassandra was not smart like Phyllis or powerful like Claire. In a word, she was not that useful as compared to those two. That is why she wanted to prove her worth very badly. She may be not smart but she was not dumb. She knew that as compared to the other two she was not worth that much. And if a day come when Arvin started seeing her like an eyesore or all he started thinking that she was dead weight, he would not think twice before eliminating her. That is why she had to prove her worth.

Cassandra had a network of spies in the common servants. They worked on pay for her and in return, they would tell all the juicy things happening in the estate. And sometimes they would also tell her about the juicy gossips they would hear while eavesdropping on the upper echelons of the family. Cassandra mainly paid them for getting juicy information so that she could use them to gossip with her friends.

So the next day she called all of her loyal servants and told them that she would like to learn all about the three people that came from the upper floor. She wanted to know every single detail about them. And soon her loyal servants bring in results…

In just a few hours servants went all out and brought as much information they could about those three. Their group has three people. Two of them are girls whose names are Alice March and Park Shin Hye. While the boy's name is Park Go Gum.

From what servants of the house have observed these three people are currently under a lot of stress right now. Mr. Park Go Gum who seemed to be the leader of the group always has to separate or meddle between the verbal fight of Alice march and Park Shin Hye. Alice or the brains and strategist of the group always starts to fight with the Park Shin Hye. They both don't seem to get along that well.

Most of the time servants are not allowed to come near their living arrangements. They are only allowed to access their living area at a particular time every day. In that time they all had to do menial jobs like cleaning and all. And after that, they all had to vacate the premises.

But it is not that their living area is soundproof. One could hear the heated argument between those girls from time to time. And when the argument starts to get out of hand Park Go Gum interferes. So all the servants knew about their group's situation. Seeing that When Park Go Gum interferes it was the very normal thing to guess that he must be their leader.

From what all the servants have heard all their arguments seemed to have one name in common. That name was Lopt. They seemed to fight from time to time about that boy and their inability to find any trace of that boy….

Cassandra made a very detailed report of all of her findings. She wrote that report herself. And finally, after three days, Arvin came back. Like always he suddenly appeared in her room, without her knowing.  Then he took the report from her hands and went out of the gate again. After reporting to Arvin, she just wished that he finds this report useful. She didn't want to become a dead weight in the eyes of Arvin…

...…..

4 days later.

It was noontime. Claire claded in her silver armor was standing outside the living area of the people of the Aurora tribe. Her heart was beating faster and faster. The task that Arvin had given her was very dangerous. But she had a resolve in her eyes. The resolve to be free from these shackles that were holding her back. So with that resolve, she started moving towards the west wing of the Cullen estate.

The whole top floor of the west wing of the estate was given for those people to use. Claire when walking in the west wing started to see that the west wing seemed to abandon. After all, no soul could be seen here. But as she walking she felt someone was watching her. And someone was standing behind her back. She turned around to see who was there, and there she saw a woman with blond hair standing behind her…

"Who are you? I thought that I told the old master not to disturb us?" The woman said. Claire started getting a feeling that maybe that this woman was very dangerous. So it didn't beat around the bush and got to the point…

"Lord, my name is Claire. I am the bodyguard for Phyllis Cullen the daughter of the old master. She had sent me here to deliver a message for a Lord named Park Go Gum." Claire said.

"Hmm… what is the message?" Alice asked.

"Well…" Claire seemed hesitant as Arvin had specifically told her to deliver the message to the male member of their group. Seeing Claire hesitate, Alice was about to lash out at her but soon Park Go Gum appeared before Claire…

"My name is Park Go Gum. What do you want?" he asked. Claire was startled as he suddenly appeared before but she didn't lose composure…

"My lord, a very very loyal and close subordinate of miss has found something on his mission. Due to some circumstances he cannot come here and talk to you in person. But he wants to meet you tonight in the Harbor brothel. He said told my mistress to give you this fluid." Claire said while passing a vial of yellow liquid.
