Kingdom Hearts: Saving Life in Another World

Chapter 98: Conspiracy

Having been five days since leaving the mansion, Subaru and his group arrive to the capital a little late than usual since they were dealing with the random appearance of heartless attacking small villages in the road. 

During those five days, Subaru had asked Tiga and Melty about Salum and Pooka's whereabouts since things had gotten out of hand when dealing with the mysterious villain, it had slipped his mind.

"Pooka is taking care of him right now. No need to worry."

"Alright bestie."

Subaru responded with reassurance, happy that at least Salum's alright though he was still concern on how badly did the mysterious villain had hurt him. 

Not only was that a concern but also the past five days weighed a heavy burden on him. 

This all caused him to be worried for what may the Organization as well as the Witch's Cult be up to in the capital of Lugnica. 

Although Emilia felt awkward being around Subaru at the moment as they were entering the capital, she could tell that something was bothering him. 

That prompted her to check up on him. 

As she approached her knight, she sat next to him and looked only to see that he hadn't noticed her. 

She tapped his cheek which caused him to break away from whatever he was thinking.

"Subaru?"

"...huh?" Subaru turned towards his right side to finally notice Emilia. "Emilia-tan! When did you got here?"

"You dummy, I just sat down here." She spoke with a smile before curiously asking, "What were you thinking about?"

"Just...worried, it's all."

"Worried about Sora and the others?" She had a feeling that this was the case. Subaru's expression changed for a slight second, giving Emilia the answer she needed, which prompted her to follow up with, "There's no need to worry about them. Sora is strong, he will protect all of them. He also has Roswaal, Rem, and Ram by his side should a villain try to hurt them."

"I know...I'm just concerned about something else..."

"What's troubling you then?" Emilia said as she looked closely at Subaru, causing him to get nervous. 

He shook his head in order to focus on what Emilia had asked. He looked up as he responded with:

"I'm concerned about what we are facing. I'm not sure what's worse, the Organization or the Witch's cult..."

"Oi Cap'n, no need t'worry! We got th's!"

Garfiel said as he overheard the conversation between Emilia and Subaru. 

Subaru and Emilia turned towards the demi human boy, seeing that he's all fired up. 

Subaru couldn't help but smirk at seeing Garfiel all ready for combat. 

Frederica got up before pulling Garfiel's ear.

"Owowowowow!"

"Garf, it's not good to eavesdrop on other's conversations." She spoke to her little brother with a stern voice.

"T's not my fault! We can hear everythin'!"

Emilia and Subaru started to chuckle when seeing this, finding it a little funny their interactions. Petra remained calm as she tried to keep the urge to laugh in check all the while Tiga and Melty smiled at this interaction. 

They always enjoy seeing siblings interact. Waraki remained silent as he did found it a bit funny however his mind was more focused on the witch's cult, preparing himself for a confrontation with the Sin Archbishop of Lust, Capella.
