"Dolls are for the true maiden."

-Varn Zarvick, The Puppeteer

Chapter 13: The Unthinkable Mistake

Kastarthest, Aestlock Circus

A pair of geta or also known as the traditional japanese footwear stopped in front of a rusty gate.

"Ah, it's been a while since pumunta ako sa lugar na to. I wonder what this place holds for me now." The man with a blindfold looks up at the destroyed statue in the middle of the circus, deep in thought when he noticed the faint light coming from the other side of the circus. He suddenly jumps over the gate and landed softly at the other side. His geta creating a soft sound at the contact.

"Ah, I'm at the exit side and they are definitely on the other side. I guess I have to meet them at the middle then---" he took a step back as a shadow passed where he used to be. A sword that is sharper than a knife hits the tree on his left.

"Ah, I see. The creator finally grace us with his presence. It's been a while isn't varn zarvick?" The homeless man let out a gentle smile, as if he was not nearly stab to death. The mist around him vanished and reveals a figure of a man.

The man with a fox mask stood in front of him, he is fanning himself with one of his golden fans. He wears a violet yakata with multiple layers under it. What unusual about him is the pair of cat ears that sat on his head and the sharp paws that supposed to be his feet.

He is clearly not human.

"Ace Silver, one of the best six star general of all nation. What are you doing here ace? Unless you are here for your owner." Varn calmly said habang pinapaypayan ang kanyang sarili.

"Ah, thanks for the introduction. I'm afraid I won't stop my sword the next time you called the king in any inappropriate names." Ace said as he calmly grips his sword, ready to attack the puppeteer if he made the same mistake again. Varm stares at him for a minute before speaking and ignoring his threat.

"Hmmm, let's get straight to the point shall we? This is your last chance to join me, or you will be buried six foot under the ground with your owner. You have skills that you don't even require to use your magic on the battlefield, you impressed me human. Kaya binibigyan kita ng isa pang pagkakataon na bagohin ang iyong sagot." Varn said with a clear warning on his voice, warning him not to deny his offer. Ace frowns at him.

"Ah, my loyalty always remain to the kings and I am willing to sacrifice my life for them even if it means killing a dear old friend..." The moment matapos ni ace magsalita, he suddenly disappears explicitly.
