Drakiania's POV;
We had received word from Solution that Sebas had 'gone rouge', well more like only I. Though I am scarier and stronger than Ains in terms of raw power, the denizens of Nazarick knew me to be more forgiving of those who were in Nazarick. Solution probably reported to me because she thought it not wise to tell Ains straight away, though what she had probably failed to remember is my absolute hatred for humans. Or perhaps that is exactly why she chose me instead... when she had reported she didn't tell me more than Sebas acting out of line and going against rules.

I did mention to Ains that I was going to 'visit' Sebas and Solution, maybe spend the day and night there. I disguised it as, 'missing them', though that wasn't entirely untrue, at least I was free enough to make this seem believable. I now sat in the drawing room with Solution, waiting for Sebas to return from his walk. But he was taking way too long for just a short walk, dipping my hand into a purple rift, I pulled out the Mirror and located Sebas. Of course, not before I used a skill to conceal the Mirror's presence, Sebas would be able to sense something so low levelled spying on him after all.

He seemed to have stopped in an alleyway and was talking to a short blond kid, using a Sense Organ scroll on the Mirror, the sound of their conversation started to filter through the the Mirror.

Sebas had invited the boy, that had introduced himself as Climb, to practice there in the alleyway. Practice..? Judging from the boy, the only thing they will be practicing is getting the boy's arse kicked and Sebas would gain nothing from this. Just what had happened to Sebas during their time away from Nazarick?

Just as I had predicted, the boy drew his sword. And Sebas activated a skill similar to [Aura of Despair] the boy was visibly shaking, yet had somehow managed to avoid the punch that Sebas threw. I was a little disappointed that Sebas had 'missed', what should have followed after would have been a marvellous sight. To watch the human's head get caved in and send a burst of blood rocketing out. It had been a while since I killed anything...

I brought my attention back to the screen to see that the blue haired guy that had been spying on them finally showed himself. The man introduced himself as Brain Unglaus. They proceeded to make boring talk about how the boy managed to overcome the fear of imminent death when Sebas interjected, "Lord Unglaus," Just who was he calling Lord?! "It means he had enough loyalty to overcome fear." That is true Seabs, but do you have the same amount of loyalty that was once there?

I was alerted by the increased amount of movement shown on the screen, multiple people had surrounded Sebas. 5 to be exact, all dressed as assassins. Sebas perfectly took down the 3 that was in front of him. He then proceeded to give the blonde boy on-site advice and help.

"If they were following me from the mansion, they must be men of Succulent." Oh, one of the guys that Solution had told me were there before me when I questioned about the foul air in the drawing room.

I had listened in on their investigation, turns out this huge criminal syndicate called the Eight Fingers were behind this attack. I had heard whispers that they were also behind the Black Dust that was sweeping the kingdom when I was out as Kiania the adamantite adventurer.

Sebas decided to head straight for the problem and wanted to kill the problem from the roots. And he doesn't have the intention to even report to me or Ains before going on such a big Self-Appointed mission? He hadn't even gained any information on the enemy's base, their numbers or strengths, attack tactics or if the location he knew of was simply just a decoy, like that fake Nazarick Aura had built. I shook my head, he was underprepared like Cocytus was. If this leads to a loss on his end, I guess I'll just have to come to the rescue.

The 2 humans had insisted on following Sebas, so maybe showing myself would be a bad idea... Or I can use my brain and be smart, and go as Kiania instead of Supreme Being. They headed off to the base, leaving the assassins on the ground behind them.

I watched the proceedings unhappily. Sebas had brute force his way inside, which I agreed with but, he was still not knowledgeable about his opponents. Solution who was stood behind me sensed that I was very unhappy and offered me more tea. I smiled just to put her at ease and she poured me another cup, not even the cake in front of me was not appetising anymore.
