Mafia Crisis Part 20

[Faraday]

[Later…]

Chang and Rosaria yell out for Zigzag as they've lost them.

They walk around the maze attempting to hear a scream back but the walls are thick enough to where their screams dont get heard.

Rosaria looks down at the ground and sees a trap so she tells Chang to watch out as she tries to defuse it.

Rosaria says

"Hey Chang! It might be a bomb so I might wanna have you trip over it!"

Chang then says

"Bomb? But the traps are supposed to be non-lethal."

Rsoaria then replies with

"I am aware of that already."

"It doesn't have to be explosive."

Chang then says

"Well, I dont know if I have a protection against all explosions but I'll try something."

Rosaria then says

"Then how about you just step on it?"

Chang decides to listen to Rosaria and steps on the button with "toxic" gas.

The gas almost knocks out Chang and Rosaria but Rosaria uses a napkin to cover both her and Chang's mouths.

They make it out of that section alive but aren't in good condition.

They walk along the maze's walls not knowing where they exist.

Rosaria figures that they should start smashing walls.

Chang Nam Woo objects as he thinks that it's cheating.

Rosaria doesn't care and uses her fists to slowly break apart the wall.

After a couple of really hard punches, she cracks through a wall and they continue walking forward.

[Later…]

Chang and Rosaria end up running into the Mage and the Knight and they both introduce themselves.

The Knight introduces Herself as Repo.

The Mage introduces himself as Rekl.

Rekl and Repo have been friends for a long time after a faraway war in a different country.

Rosaria apologizes for beating the absolute shit out of Repo the other day.

Repo accepts her apology and says that it was only a part of the trial.

Repo does wonder how a simple archer girl could fight as well as her.

They two decide to follow Chang and Rosaria as they think that Chang and Rosaria know where the exit is.

They dont.

But they will continue to find the exit.

[Later…]

Zigzag and Sirius peacefully rest aside the large rocks.

Sirius looks extremely satisfied as she rests beside Zigzag.

Zigzag stairs into the dark rocky roof and wonders

"What the fuck just happened?"

Zigzag didn't expect the princess to just "come onto him" but hey.

Sirius wakes back up and kisses Zigzag's cheek as she interlocks her arm with his.

Zigzag smiles as he's never had somebody this close to him.

Zigzag does wonder why she did what she did but it felt good in the end.

The Superspeed did have a use outside of battle and so did his Water Regalia.

[Later…]

Sirius begins to put back on her clothes as they still need to complete the challenge.

Zigzag also follows suit.

They then leave the hot spring and venture on.

[Outside..]

After the battle, Henryzx900 and Astrolaris discuss why the Greater Demon had come.

Astrolaris figures that it's because she happens to be a great Demon herself or that Henryzx900 was just in hell causing trouble.

Henryzx900 looks to his left and he sees All of the other teams walking out but no sign of Sirius and Zigzag.

Henryzx900 tells the Gamemaster to call off the elimination as a thank-you for saving the entire planet.

The Gamemaster agrees as he doesn't have a reason to decline his offer.

After a little while Zigzag and Sirius find the exit and walk out onto the Field.

Henryzx900 and Astrolaris take one good look at Zigzag and Sirius.

They then look at each other.

They look back.

They both say

"They fucked."

"No doubt about it."

Astrolaris can smell the… yeah….

Henryzx900 can see how messed up both clothes are.

Henryzx900: So, how the hell will you explain this you two?

Zigzag blushes and says

"I-"

Before Zigzag could say anything Henryzx900 stops him right there.

Henryzx900 promises Zigzag and Sirius that he won't tell anybody what they are likely doing in that cave.

Henryzx900: You two need to clean yourself up as I have laughed heavily at your appearance.

Sirius and Zigzag then catch up with Chang and Rosaria.

[Later..]

The Sun is setting and everyone has gone home to prepare for the next day.

Sirius invites Zigzag and his friends to join her at the Royal Dinner.

Henryzx900 takes this as an opportunity to see what's up with the Royal family as he's heard some very interesting things about them

He was only gone for a minute but in that time had run across the entire country to survey the population.

Henryzx900 then runs straight to the royal Castle.

[Castle.]

The royal castle of this military empire stands proudly as a symbol of power and strength, its towering walls and grand turrets a testament to the might of the kingdom. Guarded by formidable soldiers in gleaming armor, the castle is a bastion of security and authority, with every corner meticulously fortified to protect the royal family and its subjects.

Within the castle walls, luxurious chambers and majestic halls host grand feasts and elaborate ceremonies, showcasing the opulence and grandeur of the empire.

From its strategic position overlooking the vast lands under its rule, the royal castle serves as a formidable fortress and a beacon of military might for the empire.

[Castle.]

As they walk down the halls of the castle, Henryzx900 looks around at everything as he has some sort of plan he is putting in place.

Astrolaris can sense what he's up to.

They then walk into the dining room where the King and the Queen of the land are currently sitting.

King(Slan)

Queen(Mavis)

The Queen welcomes everyone but especially Zigzag as she already knows what happened between them.

She tells Zigzag to follow her to her quarters.

Henryzx900: o-o

[Queen's Room]

The queen's chamber within the royal castle showcases a unique blend of regal splendor and military prowess, reflecting her powerful role as the ruler of a military empire. Adorned with rich tapestries depicting epic battles and heroic military leaders, the room exudes a sense of honor and valor.

A canopy bed draped in luxurious fabrics embroidered with intricate patterns symbolizing victory and strength stands as the centerpiece of the room, flanked by polished suits of armor and ornate weaponry.

The walls are adorned with antique swords and shields, and shelves showcase military memorabilia and trophies from conquests. A large, intricately carved desk serves as the queen's command center, where she strategizes and plans military campaigns, surrounded by maps, battle plans, and historical tomes.

[Queen's Room]

Zigzag looks around the room and sees a giant fucking sword on the wall inside of a frame.

Mavis says

"That sword? I used it during the war."

"This is how this country was born after all."

"But let's get to the chase."

"You procreated with my daughter."

"Now I dont have any problems with that."

"She's the type of girl to be against anything related to love and only care about battle."

"The battle girl Archetype forged by TOBE."

Henryzx900 was listing in but then he heard "TOBE" which stands for The One Beyond Existence.

Henryzx900: She knows about WHO!

Henryzx900: Who is this woman?

Zigzag

"So you aren't mad at me?"

Mavis then says

"Look, if you said you wanted to marry her today and go off and live peaceful lives I have no objections as you are probably the only man she will ever like in her entire life."

"But I'm afraid this country doesn't like me and the King would object."

"I hope that you and your friends, even the one who's invisible right now, will help us."

Henryzx900 comes out of Invsibility which was provided by Astrolaris.

Henryzx900: So I was correct.

Henryzx900: This Kingdom is going to shit.

Henryzx900: What can we do to help?

Mavis then says

"There's an underground organization that's plotting against me."

"Sit down."

"We have a long night ahead of us."
