C29 Living The Real Life 2/2

"I know right? Joe is just so, so… he was bald and all, and black too!"

"I agree!"

"You do know you are black too, right?"

"Hahaha! Really? It must be because it's already night time."

The three of them chatted for a bit while I sat down at the corner to rest. I was really tired from all the excitement earlier, so I tried to sleep through it but they looked like they had a lot of fun while backstabbing his friend so I couldn't sleep with all the disturbing noises they were making.

"We should get going, it's already this late."

They finally stopped so I stood up and puffed the dust off the dress I borrowed from his sister. The one I had was wet so they had to wash it with the thing that spins clothes around. They said it would wash it clean, but the stains it had because of my blood was still all over it so I had to borrow her clothes because I might be seen as a killer if I didn't. Surprisingly, it fits like a glove.

"Are you sure you don't want me to come with you?"

"It's alright. We hired this girl to protect us, she's really strong."

I hid my face because the bald guy was looking at me with a curious face and because I felt embarrassed by what Seth said.

"Hmmm you look familiar…"

"Geez Seth! I'm still a girl you know!"

You don't call girls strong, Seth!

"Okay then, just don't stay too late kids. It's dangerous out here."

He said while waving his hand.

"Thanks! We're going now, have a good night!"

"Oh! There you are Frank!"

"What was that all about, Joe?"

"Ah nothing just a bunch of teenagers wanting to take a quick visit."

We left the scene immediately after we saw another guard approaching the gate.

"Really?.. That pretty girl with the dress and the short one looks familiar."

"Hmm… It's just your imagination, don't mind it."

Joe was spot on, good thing Frank covered for us.

"Which one was Joe again?"

I had a problem identifying both of them because they looked exactly the same, the dark skin and bald head.

"That Frank! I'll get him later!"

"What about me? Don't I look familiar? I even see him everyday."

Seth got jealous all of a sudden because his name wasn't mentioned.

"More importantly, why are those two here together?"

"They take part time jobs during the night."

We talked while walking towards Isla's grave, it was a bit farther away so we had time to idle around.

"Really…?"

The little girl said with a mischievous smile. It looked like she was up to something. Well, we were up to something.

"By the way, what was your name again?"

I asked the little girl.

"Just call me-"

"We're here, do both of you remember the plan?"

"Let me finish!"

"Yes, I remember completely!"

I answered while ignoring the little girl who tried answering my question.

"You asked me didn't you!?"

The plan was to dig the grave, chop the corpse or maybe bones and stuff it inside the cake box. If somebody sees us just make a run for the exit.

It wasn't actually a real raid, it was just us stealing the corpse. Or so I thought.

"We don't have a shovel!"

"You forgot the shovel!?"

"I can't help it. We don't have anywhere to hide it."

No one brought a shovel so we were in a bit of a pinch.

"Just use your hands Seth!"

I told Seth who was keenly staring at the little girl's head. I turned to look at where he was directing his eyes and saw the circlet which was the same as mine.

It was a type of circlet that transforms into a specific object if the user wanted it. I had mine transformed into a smaller one and wore it like a bracelet so it wouldn't stand out, from what I heard earlier, her particular circlet was a sword.

"Let's use your sword."

"It's real!?"

I didn't know if it was true, it's weight was extraordinarily heavy for a normal accessory, but I haven't really seen it in action.

"Of course it is!"

"Let me see! Let's use it!"

For me it was an interesting feat, being able to hold me down like earlier. Especially because I had already buff myself to the max at that time and still only managed to shift it an inch.

"You people are really!-"

"Shhh!"

There was a bit of light that passed as so we had to be extra careful not to be found out.

"Just hurry please!"

"Okay fine! Char, cast refraction magic. The glow will be too bright and we'd be found out."

That's right, when transforming from object to another a slight glow will happen.

"Give it your all and don't stop until we're done."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Just do it. And remember, don't hold back. Seth, cover her mouth, she might shout, you've already seen this before so you should be alright. I think?"

"Roger! Char sorry about this, I just rubbed these hands on the gravestone earlier to confirm if it was the right one, so it might smell."

"Seth! No- hmmmm! Hmmmm! Mmmm! Mm! Muuummm!!!"

'It smells! It smelled like dog's piss! Is the light really that bright to go this far? Please hurry!'

That was what I wanted to say but couldn't because I was already casting the spell before the little girl even instructed Seth to do it.

"Please hurry I feel sorry for her- kyaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

"Seth! Why did you scream!?"

"It's too bright! My eyes!!!"

"Hmmm! Mmm! uhmmm!."

The moment the little girl took her circlet, the space inside the refraction spell lit up due to how bright the golden sword was glowing.

The little girl looked at Seth angrily but then averted her eyes towards me while slowly turning her frowning mouth into a naughty smile.

"You know this sword can actually judge people. Earlier you managed to budge it right?"

After hearing her explanation, I knew for sure what was going to happen but I couldn't stop her because I was still keeping the spell in check.

"If the sword cuts you then you are a bad person, if not, then you must be a really good person that could even rival angels."

"Mmmm! Hmmmm! Mmm!"

'Please! Don't Do! It!'

Is what I wanted to say as I didn't want to die again.

"MMMMMMM!!!!!!!!"

*zing!

"Wow! You passed!"

The sword went through me like a waterfall. I passed! I'm alive!

"Mmmmm!"

"Okay let's get to it."

She started digging with her sword. It wasn't hard for her because the sword was not actually digging it but was burning the soil like water turning into vapor.

"Won't you burn the bones with that?"

"Don't worry that won't happen… How deep is this? I haven't felt anything for a while now."

"Just a little bit more."

"Oh! There it is, the coffin. Oops I burned it a bit."

She burned the coffin straight like how the body should be positioned.

"You burn her!"

"No I did not!"

"Then, where is she!?"

"How should I know!"

*Ring *Ring

"Wait a bit I'll scold you later."

"Scold me!? Who are to-"

"Shhh!... Yes mom?"

Seth took out a rectangular device from his pocket and started talking to it. It appears like it was their communication device. The one like ours but ours were mirrors and you don't tap on them like what he did before he started talking.

"Set it to loudspeaker so everyone can hear."

"Huh?...Okay?"

"I forgot to tell you. Dead bodies are taken to the factory for energy reserves is what my colleagues slash besties told me."

"WHAT!!??"
