06: One's Goal

Nezetta's PoV

The world was never fair.

I came to know of that fact since I was little, when I saw how different peasants and royals were. In actions, words, magic, we were divided. It was an unsightly scene, to be frankly honest.

It wasn't the kind of world that I wanted, but it's the kind that I'd die trying to fix. Even when I know to myself that the possibility of that is lightyears away from happening, a strange spark of hope stayed within me as I grew up.

In that sense, I began treating royals and nobles the way they treat peasants, daringly saying it to their faces that what I've been doing is a reflection of what they do. Yet, merely showing them the effects of their deeds were not enough to erase their annoying ego and superiority complex.

"Good morning, Nezetta-san!"

I smiled upon meeting Mimosa and her group in the hallway. I tugged my robe forward as I met them in the middle of the carpeted path. "Good morning," I said softly. "I'm assuming you'll be going on a mission again?"

"Yes, we were tasked to scout the capital's borders. Just a simple one after yesterday's conflict." Klaus smiles behind my cousin. He pushes his glasses up his nose, a habit that I noticed he had since I knew him. "Captain Vangeance said that we should take it easy today."

"I see,"

"How about you, Nezetta-san?"

"I'm taking a day off." I looked out the window to our right.

"Out to visit your sister?"

I looked over Mimosa's shoulder to see Yuno and Bell. "Yep," I grinned. "Wait, how did you know?"

"You were mumbling last night."

"LAST NIGHT?!" Mimosa and Klaus screamed so loud that it almost destroyed my eardrums.

In an instant, Bell flew from Yuno's shoulder and pulled on my cheeks rather harshly, yet it wasn't even painful. "How dare you sleep with my Yuno?! He's mine! Get your filthy being away from him!" She yelled, it was hard to believe that she's actually small with that volume of her voice. "I knew you're bad news! This is uncalled for!"

"Y-Y-Y-Yuno-san, I didn't take you as that type of man!"

"You barely know each other, Yuno!"

"The hell are you three screaming for?" I groaned, covering my ears with my hands. "Cut it out. My head's hurting."

"YUNO, HOW DARE YOU SLEEP WITH ANOTHER WOM--"

"We were only talking last night, Bell. You were there." Yuno sighs.

"Eh?"

"Seriously, stop it with your perverted thoughts. The three of you are tainted." I said. "How could you even think of such things?"

"Use proper wordings, then!"

I reached the Black Bulls hideout an hour after eating breakfast with the three. "It seems like I won't be left alone for awhile." I mumbled, realizing that Mimosa probably wants to have more familiar faces surrounding her. "I guess I can stick around for awhile."

I looked up to see the wooden double doors of the base. As I stand in front of it, my hand forms into a fist and knocked softly against the rough surface of the furniture.

Instead of the door opening normally, it was blasted into pieces right in front of my faces. I was lucky that none of it actually hit my body as the impact blew the bits of wood away from me. It shows me the inside of the hideout, where the rowdy members were having the time of their lives doing their own thing in their own spaces.
