Life Of A Nobody - as a Villain

Hearing Rio's voice everyone was surprised. The servants were scared cause half the staff was already put in prison last night without any warning and now the future heir of the house came here announcing killing a traitor.

Some people who've heard the rumours were scared that they might be used as scapegoats, while others were scared as they had no idea what was happening in the mansion. They all started murmuring by themselves -

"Who do you think it is"

"Are they going to arrest everyone"

"What happened to people who were picked up last night "

"Can someone tell me what's happening"

"Didn't harry say that young master was attacked yesterday"

"He's lying can't you see he's fine"

"I don't want to die, I have a little kid"

"Shut up I think you're the traitor"

"Do they have any proof, who is it"

"Why aren't any soldiers coming"

There were all kinds of chattering started and seeing the crowd gathering around and making noise, some nearby soldiers too started coming there and stood in front of the crowd.Although they didn't know what was happening, protecting the heir and keeping these servants in check was their job.

Myra who was standing near me came out of her thoughts and asked me - "Do you know what you're doing, Rio."

Rio who was looking around at the servants and trying to see if he could find anyone else who was suspicious, was surprised as he heard Mytra's voice in his head.

(Telepathy, not quite what I'm used to)

Rio didn't reply and just nodded his head. After that he started walking forwards as soldiers pushed the servants to the side to clear the way for the entrance.

Myra looked around at everyone and ordered the soldiers to not let anyone in the building. After that she too started following Rio as they made their way in.

Rio walked straight and stood near the signboard which listed quarters position for each sector. He was looking at the list trying to find the place where Chiron's quarter was. Myra who saw him looking the list up and down shook her head and said "who are we looking for."

After hearing her voice Rio replied - "Chiron, he's the head chef."

But when he turned back to look at the board he forgot where he was and clicked his tongue.

He was starting to search from the top again when Myra pointed her finger at the board and said - "here."

Rio looked at her and saw Myra who was looking the other way trying to control her smiling expression .

' Should've told her sooner ' he thought.

_

After finding the place both of them started walking and when they walked a little further away from the gate. Myra finally asked - "So wanna tell me what's going on."

Rio knew the questions would come and started speaking - "As I said Chiron, he's a spy and we're here to catch him."

Myra listened carefully and said - "You sound like you're sure of it. Any reason why."

Rio chuckled at her words and said - "Come on, have you seen the guy, he's a berserker acting as a chef. It's like the most obvious lie."

Myra came in front of the Rio and said in a serious tone - "We've already checked his background when he started working at the mansion. And if you're doubting him just because of how he looks, then you still have much to learn about people future heir of Damascus."

At the end of her sentence her tone became a bit cold, it felt like she was feeling disappointed in Rio's childish behavior. Myra knew he was still a 10 year old , but people born in high society didn't have the right to enjoy their childhood like others do. They need to learn about people and their behavior if they wish to take over their family's postion. Otherwise they'll just get used by others and ruin everything.

Myra who was contemplating if she should report it to Artemis or give him a chance, heard Rio's voice - "Geez, When did you get so serious. You do remember that your MASTER taught me about this stuff herself right."

Myra looked at him and asked - "What do you mean."

Rio stepped aside and started walking again as he said - "It means that I already know he's a traitor. We're just here to collect the proof before arresting him directly."

Myra who heard Rio's words didn't doubt him any longer but still came behind him and slapped his head - "That's for trying to make fun of me and master."

Rio who was caught unprepared for the head pat, got pushed 2 steps ahead. He massaged his head and clicked his tongue.

' fucking weak '

This was the thought that came to his brain as he kept walking forward.

Soon enough they reached the place where quarters of chef's started and after walking a bit further they were standing in front of a door which had a sign written on- 'head chef.'

Rio looked towards Myra who pulled out a token from her ring*¹. She pressed the token on the lock panel and it opened.

_ _

Info -- Every door was marked with an array magic which would notify the owner immediately if someone opened the door.

- of course these are all weak level arrays and could be broken or passed through easily if you a know about them

- The door can only be opened by a key/token with given permission.

- the permission's or authority of a token is given according to heirachy. In the servants quarters the housekeeper and butlers has the permission to open and check every door.

After the door opened Rio walked in. The room was much smaller compared to the ones made in mansion. But it was still double of what Rio used to live in his past life.

Rio walked straight and started looking around. Myra who saw him searching for something asked him - "wanna tell me what we're looking for."

"A small black box with a symbol of mountain and moon carved on it." - Rio replied as he kept throwing stuff here & there.

(The lost kingdom - was chiron from there, he never mentioned it) Myra thought.

_

INFO -The lost kingdom previously known as 'Neoma' which means new moon, was destroyed by a wave of monsters during one of the tower outbreak 150 years ago.

-- No one was left alive from that place as even their way put was cut by a dungeon collapse.

-- It was a sad tragedy but no one mourned them as they were all Strays , followers of " Freyr - a fallen God " who advocated death as the belief.

_

If Chiron was part of the Strays then it was their job to find him and kill him before he succeeds in whatever he planned.

Myra closed her eyes for a second and after opening them started walking towards a wall.

She pulled the poster of God Apollo which was stuck there and behind it lay a big hole.

(damn, this chef pulled a shawshank redemption in Arcadia) Thought Rio when he saw a hole hidden by a poster.

Rio walked towards the wall and took out the box from there. Myra who saw the symbol on top of the box didn't doubt anything and was now ready to go and capture this chef.

But just then they heard the sound of a wall crashing in front of them, Myra pulled Rio to the side and protected him from the falling debris. When the dust and smoke finally cleared they saw a big muscular giant like man standing in front of them with his veins bulging in a blue hue as white smoke was coming out from his body.

When Rio saw all this instead of getting scared a smile came on his face as he thought - 'So the sheep came directly in the slaughter house.'
