Luminary

Episode 8 - A Place with No Name

At one of Dennis' castles, the white King was in his pool, relaxing and enjoying a small moment of peace on a warm day. It was a big pool indeed, with statues of angels on the walls throwing water at the big tank where the King was swimming.

Sora entered the room, looking around for the King, but couldn't find him at all, until he raise up to the surface, surprising her.

Dennis: Did I scare you?

Sora: Just stunned me for a second...

Dennis gave a short laugh and Sora made an annoyed expression.

Sora: Anyway, we are ready to go, but the Red King, Envy, is here.

Dennis: Envy?

Envy entered the room, a medium sized young man with a red military uniform. He looked at Dennis and made a small smirk.

Envy: Leave us.

Sora: Oh, okay...

Sora awkwardly left the room, annoyed as the Envy didn't even look at her properly.

Dennis: So, Red King, I heard you changed your name from Lusa to Envy, I imagine you didn't come here just to join me in this relaxing pool.

Envy: Your observation skills are great.

Dennis: So what made you come all the way here? Your territory it's the western world.

Dennis said that as he left the pool with a towel on his hand, ready to dry his face.

Envy: The supreme leader is disappointed in you.

Dennis stopped for a moment, his face was deeply scared and worried at the same time.

Envy: Fear not, you are still in his good sights, but, in a few days from today, he is sending the empress to "supervise" you.

Dennis: Empress?! You mean, Empress Ran?!

Envy: Yes, VoidCm's wife in person.

Dennis: Why are you telling me that?

Envy: Because I'm your friend. We both control the west and eastern part of the world under VoidCm's command, we must help each other.

Dennis: And, as you came here in person... I was not supposed to know that, right?

Envy: Yes, so we never spoke about this.

Dennis: So what is your excuse for your visit?

Envy: I'm on vacation.

Envy went to the exit door.

Envy: Be careful Dennis, Empress Ran its not gentle and kind as the Supreme Leader is...

Envy left the room and faced Sora that was there.

Envy: What are you doing here? Were you eavesdropping?

Sora: No, sir. I came with new reports for the White King, I was about to knock.

Envy: Good, he needs all the help he can get.

Envy left and both Sora and Dennis were with a sour taste on their mouth.

Sora: Sir?

Dennis: Deploy all my double agents on the IBI! Operation Midnight starts today!

Sora: Will do!

Dennis: Wait! Where is Chrono?

Sora: Guarding your airplane.

Dennis: Good, get ready you too, we are departing soon.
