Will of chaos

I wake up the next day without being able to breathe, I get up scared and pull what was in my throat, it was Érica's tail that almost choked me.

"More... I want more... Zzzzz..." (Érica)

Érica had a predatory grin on her face as her face turned red, it looked like she liked the rude way I was holding her tail.

"(I guess I better get up before these four wake up...)" (I)

I let go of Érica's tail, get dressed and go to the kitchen to get something to restore my energy after a tiring night.

After that I go out to meet the Queen again, this time I noticed that the number of people watching me thinking I didn't even notice them has increased a lot since yesterday.

I once again go through the castle's security procedures before being allowed in as I am guided by a butler with a mustache whose ends have reached waist-length giving an eerie sight.

I follow him into a double-doored room which he opens to reveal a beautifully decorated office with a table full of papers where the Queen was reading a document when she signaled for us to enter, then I enter the butler with the odd mustache closes the door behind me. .

"Good morning, Your Majesty." (I)

"Good morning Mr Zenos, I wonder why you came to me for the third day in a row." (Viviane)

"I know I must have been a nuisance to you, I'm sorry about that, I just have a few questions I'd like to know if you'd be willing to answer, Your Majesty?" (I)

"Your presence isn't a nuisance, I'm just surprised by your sudden visit." (Viviane)

"Before we start talking..." (I)

I look around, signaling something the Queen seems to have noticed.

"Don't worry, the moment the door was closed the sound of this room was sealed in this place, no one can hear us." (Viviane)

"You can tell me what you want." (Viviane)

"As you wish, the situation is..." (I)

I start to tell you about our mission to rescue the Blood Demons, but I don't tell you about anything illegal, about the truth about the Holy Son and the Dungeon.

I just tell the Queen about the ransom, so.

The Queen listens as she reads the documents, right after I've stopped talking she closes her eyes to think about something for a few seconds before saying something.

"I tried to research the Blood Demons after they disappeared, thanks to that I was able to find out a few things from the tracks they are still clearing." (Viviane)

"Do you know anything about the location of the Blood Demons?" (I)

"It was an extremist group of Vampires that took them, they are just a smaller group that have no bloodlines other than the common Vampires." (Viviane)

"Then why did this group go after the Blood Demons?" (I)

"I don't know, but I was assembling a team to find them, I waited for them to leave where they are for over 2 months with my troops on standby." (Viviane)

"It seems that this group enters the grounds of the Ruins of Death." (Viviane)

"Where is this place?" (I)

"Alongside my nation, many lesser Realms circle around these ruins, the lands cursed long ago long before my birth." (Viviane)

"What I do know is that a Kingdom even more prosperous than the current Black Empire existed in that nation, but one day the entire city was destroyed and everyone was killed." (Viviane)

"As time passed, the undead started to appear, in addition to normal dungeons and cursed dungeons, because of this it became the deadliest area in the entire continent." (Viviane)

"If this place has become so dangerous, then why did you choose to build a nation in this place? Why did any of these Realms choose this?" (I)

"Because it's safer since we don't have to fight more stealthily against other Realms or suffer from schemes to destroy ourselves before we form solid foundations there." (Viviane)

"To the other Realms we must seem like a competent shield to control the situation." (Viviane)

"Did you manage to find out what the kidnappers want with these Blood Demons?" (I)

"I think they want to do some kind of sacrificial ritual, but what worries me is where they went, so I'm still investigating." (Viviane)

"Is it okay for us to go there?" (I)

"You can go normally, but I must warn you that very few enter that place because there will be deaths at some point." (Viviane)

I take a paper that the Queen passes to me with the information she has on these kidnappers, these people haven't been seen very often since they came in these people could be dead but I don't think it happened or the Blood Demons will be dead too what would have been mentioned in the letter we received or in another Oracle.

I read all the information and then pass the paper back to the Queen.

"If you want you can go, but be careful as I don't even know what these extremists are planning." (Viviane)

After talking to the Queen for a while longer, I say goodbye and leave, after leaving I go back to the mansion where everyone is, I tell them what I talked to the Queen about and the location we have to look for.

I looked around and didn't see Lilian around, I wanted to ask her more questions about this dangerous place.

Since I didn't know where Lilian had gone I told everyone to think about it for a while to see what they think, we still don't know what's going on there, so I tell the others to be as prepared as possible.

I'm going to talk to Lyra myself about making a new set of potions for us to take away, after that I went to bed as I was tired, I was also thinking about what I should do the next day, but I still didn't know what I should do the next day. , I'm tired and went to sleep.

"(I have a lot of things to do tomorrow, besides that I have to talk to Lilian about various things she should know about since she lives on this continent.)" (I)

I had many things to think about, but now I had to sleep, I asked no one to sneak into my room, I wanted to be clear and calm tomorrow, so I close my eyes and let myself be carried away to dreamland.
