30. Mastermind

Lucas got out of the car as soon as they got to the mansion. It was still a bit early considering he came out when the rooster had not crowed. Yes.. they had planned tactics before going out to meet the snotty man who claimed to be Lucas' enemy. Ah.. considering that man, Lucas is a bit sorry because his young age has become a corpse and unfortunately he raised the war flag to the great master in his country. So don't blame Lucas if he kills that idiot.

Brakk!

Suddenly everyone in the mansion looked at the door that was roughly opened. To their surprise they found the Master's face covered in blood. Gosh.. what happened?

Lucas ignored the worried looks of the servants and subordinates who were looking at him. He just passed them as if nothing had happened. Hey.. nothing happened, right?

"Luc.."

Lucas turned around when his name was called. He frowned confused because the girl in front of him didn't speak immediately and instead looked at him with a look that… I don't know. He doesn't understand eye language.

"What's wrong?" he asked then. Hey, he's tired now and this girl just looks at him and doesn't immediately make a sound. He thought Lucas had a lot of time just for him to watch?

Zoa woke up from her daydream. He was stunned to see a lot of blood on Lucas' face. But the man seemed to feel no pain. Was he so immune to the pain that he couldn't feel anything with a face like that? Oh come on.. that's right.

"Are you okay?"

Lucas frowned even more at the girl's question. He shook his head hesitantly in response. What is going on?

Zoa tugged on Lucas' shirt to follow him. He didn't want Lucas to get sick again because he wasn't careful with his surroundings. Shouldn't he be careful because he's an important person? But why did the man always bleed from his body and didn't try to treat him? Are all important men the same? While Lucas just quietly followed behind.

"Wait a minute here," Zoa said before leaving Lucas in the upstairs room. Yes .. he deliberately took Lucas away from the servants and subordinates so that they stopped looking worriedly at their master. He was also worried about seeing Lucas's bruised face and a lot of blood on his face, but he couldn't bear to see how many Lucas people saw the man. Like they want to say their worries but are afraid.

Lucas. The man shrugged nonchalantly before picking up his cell phone and seeing a new notification from one of his men.

"Sir, the file is missing."

Lucas turned to Mike who had just arrived with several folders in his hands. He then took the files and put his cell phone at random. The dossier from Giolson's company piqued his interest more.

"Gosh.. are you hurt too?" Asked Zoa who had just returned and found Lucas' men who were in charge of driving were also seriously injured. Meanwhile, David was confused about what to answer because his master was also quietly watching the file. Didn't the master tell his miss it was just an artificial wound?

"T-"

"Sit down. I will clean your wounds." Zoa said before David finished his sentence. He then sat down next to Lucas who was still focused on the file in his hand. And David .. the man finally also sat on the sofa next to Lucas even though he felt bad before.

Zoa took some cotton that had been given antiseptic to clean the blood, then started cleaning Lucas' face who was still focused on the file. But he doesn't care, isn't Lucas an important person? So Zoa didn't want to disturb the man when he was focused.

"Is this blood? Why is it like this?"Asked Zoa who was confused because the blood on the cotton had now turned slightly purple. He continued to look at the cotton in his hands without realizing it was David who was holding back laughter at his behavior and Lucas who had glanced briefly.

"Hey.. you guys lied to everyone. This isn't real blood." He said as he showed the cotton to the two men in front of him.

Lucas shrugged nonchalantly before refocusing on his file. Meanwhile, David was again confused about what to answer because his Miss was now staring at him.

"I don't mean to lie, Miss. We were in such a dangerous situation that we had to put on makeup like this." He said with a hand that gently scratched the nape of the neck that didn't itch.

"Sir."

The three of them turned to Harry who had just arrived breathlessly. He looked at his Master and David who just glanced at him indifferently then turned his gaze to Zoa who gave him a strange look. What's wrong with the Miss? He looks a little disappointed or does he look like that?

"Master I have something important." Said harry remembering his goal to run like crazy. How come? It's about the time in morris town and who is the mastermind behind all the events they experience there.

"Say," Lucas replied without taking his eyes off the file and his hands were busy writing something on the paper.

Harry was a little hesitant to have to tell this important thing in front of Zoa who didn't understand anything about their world, but her Master had ordered it that way. How do you want to refuse?

"I found the mastermind." Report later. He had deliberately said things that they didn't understand in front of them. You know who's there, don't you? So there was no way Harry could say everything.

Lucas immediately stood up from his seat and walked away from them as well as Harry who immediately followed behind him. That means there are important things to discuss. Only David and Zoa were still sitting on the sofa with understanding eyes watching the two important men leave.

"Miss, you don't want to clean my wound?" David asked trying to take Zoa's eyes off them.

"No."

David almost glared in disbelief at the clear answer from his Miss. Ah, the beautiful lady just rejected him? Seriously. Even though only a few minutes ago he offered to clean the wound with his Master. But after he knew it wasn't a real wound he didn't want it anymore. But it's also not his fault if he doesn't want to, he may feel cheated. Aha..sorry for this unintentional lie, Miss.

Meanwhile in another room. Lucas was busy watching a CCTV recording that Harry showed. He smiled smugly to see the person in the recording who was propping his chin casually with several people guarding around him. Yes .. how not to smile seeing the prey is in sight. Even if the eagle sees its prey from a distance, it can immediately accelerate its flight speed so that it immediately catches the soft prey. Then what if it was Lucas?

"We're going to base now. I have to clean my cage of dirt." Lucas hissed coldly then quickly got up from his seat followed by Harry behind him.
