Survival ( Part 4 )

- Why are you laughing ?

Samanta knowingly asked why Anka was laughing…

'Oh did I laugh out loud?'

Anka was embarrassed for a moment then motioned for everyone to look at her.

- I will continue to state our situation specifically.

A few of the people wanted to speak but Anka immediately raised her hand and said:

- I know who the criminal is, so you don't have to continue the argument.

At her words, even the celebrities in space seemed doubtful.

- And that's not all I know. For example, I know who made the summons to reach the current point and I know why the sirens react so exaggerated.

Anka now looked satisfied at her listeners who were focused on her and continued.

- As I said before, guests of different races have their powers sealed since they arrived on the ship. This fact is proof so keep it in mind . Now , how could they fight many sirens and different servants if their powers were sealed?

Now Ghita intervene quickly this time...

- What do you want to say ? I saw the battle scene with my own eyes and just as I was entering the door of the apartment, my master was ripping off the head of a servant!

- Yes, we also saw similar scenes!

Several people spoke, but the space people were strangely silent with a frown between their brows.

'Looks like I've enlightened a few...'

- What was I just saying?

Anka spoke patiently as if in front of her were a group of small children instead of adults.

Alisa spoke shyly in response…

- That those in space have sealed powers?

-Exactly.

Felix seemed to be losing his patience.

-So what do you mean?

- Doesn't it seem strange to you that despite having lost most of their powers they were still able to kill an entire staff of mermaids in one night without even knowing it?

Anka paused and waited for those present to digest the news and then said...

- So my theory is that most of the ship's staff left after the guests arrived on the ship, leaving a small part of the weaker and unimportant ones missing.

Then this time Skoni who was a female star famous for her potions and artifacts opened her mouth to speak:

- So you're saying that everything is a staging by the mermaids?

Anka shook her head no.

-Actually, I'm not too sure about the sirens' involvement at first, but I know why they're very angry now.

The angel opened his mouth for the first time to speak:

- So the reason why the staff left the ship in the first place has nothing to do with our situation?

When this point was raised many showed confusion and disbelief.

- That system mentioned someone with bad thoughts, who is that person?

The one who had spoken this time was the pegasus. He was injured during the escape on the ship and had a dislocated leg that was carried by the elf.

- Is he the one who killed Lan?

Anka knew that she probably couldn't be lying however she thought for a second in her mind and as she expected…

[ Friendly Moment : The host's ability I will judge anyone I see' is getting ready to punish you for lying.]

'Hah, I have no choice then...'

Anka sat with her back straight and continued to speak the truth.

- The one mentioned by the system with bad intentions was Lan.

-Impossible !!!

Paul, Samanta, Kley and Felix immediately denied it.

- It couldn't be him!

-What evidence do you have to say this?!

Now apart from these four the others didn't react much...

'I don't know if they don't believe me or if they don't care.'

- He was . My ability told me but I can't tell you how because it's my privacy and I'm not obligated to tell you how my power works.

They still seemed to want to deny so Anka continued.

- He had a power of time hypnosis.

When her words fell they each had different reactions but at least now they were silent.

- It wasn't necessarily his intention to bring all the mermaids after us or start a war. He just hated space species so he hypnotized everyone upstairs on a large scale. But he did not give them orders. All he did was sharpen the desire in them heart which led to the assassination scene you witnessed. BUT like I said , the servants on the ship were very few already and weak so he was more of something out of pattern in the background of a larger conspiracy.

Anka was silent then. Everyone around the fire had their own thoughts and she let them get to their own ideas for now. Then as she took a bite of the bear meat that she put on the fire longer, Felix opened his mouth again...

- Okay, let's say that Lan did what you said... but who killed him? You said you know.

Anka nodded.

-Know .

Then they all looked at her.

- I was .

Silence fell in the blink of an eye. People had not reacted when people from space seemed to be watching some drama now.

The phoenix, pegasus, and elf actually started laughing…

Then people reacted. Felix rushed towards Anka, but she was already prepared for a long time. Through a light movement at immobilization. Now he was lying on his stomach with hands behind his back and Anka was standing with her legs on him in an imposing manner.

- What the hell are you doing Anka!?

-Self-defense.

Paul seemed to be like oil on a hot pan.

-Not with Felix, but with Lan?! Why did you kill him?

Anka seemed indifferent.

- Because I wanted to, because I can, because I have to.

People had a look of disgust written all over their faces while the stars enjoyed the show.

- What do you mean? Because you want to and you can do it?! Does that mean that if you want you can kill us too?!

Kley seemed to have said it jokingly to scold her but then Anka's look scared him very much. She looked at each one in turn and said.

- If I had the chance I would kill you all, so try not to stay near me if possible.

Then she smiled beautifully, which sent shivers down those people's spines. After finishing another bite Anka looked up again.

- So, the sirens planned something, but it probably wasn't the current situation. While Lan was something of a variable that shocked even the sirens it was not that which caused our need to escape.

She then looked at Svartur, the elven prince, who now had a 50% chance of being framed for stealing the mermaids' treasures, and continued with her speech.

- What caused the current scene was the attempted or successful theft of the mermaids' treasures.

At these words, people from the universe showed shocked looks, even the elf seemed as if he had been struck by lightning...

'It doesn't look like he's faking it...'

Anka looked for a moment at the dragon who was still reading a book and didn't seem to be part of the group discussion then continued to speak again.

-Although it may seem a bit confusing, in fact there are two plots between which we were all caught and got involved by mistake thanks to Lan's 'genius' intervention.

Then the panicked elf opened his mouth and said:

- So the mermaids lost their 'birthstone'? This is their treasure, right?

- Yes, you guessed right.

Anka answered without haste. At her persuasion the color drained from the elf's face...

-How is it possible...?

Anka hesitated a little but said it anyway, for the sake of being Fahim's best friend, she decided to explain the situation more explicitly to the elf so that he would be prepared.

- What I am about to say is my own theory, but whether you believe it or not is up to you.

The elf nodded absently.

- Probably the ones who stole your 'birthstone' were the elves.

While the others became absorbed in her words, the elf seemed to realize the deeper message.

-Yes .

Anka nodded to the elf who was not far away.

- They did it on purpose. Most likely they wanted to get rid of you and get their hands on the 'birthstone' at the same time.

Anka didn't really want to talk to this group anymore. She was tired from today's fight and her head was already hurting a little from the noises caused by people's souls.

When she stood up, many eyes turned to her.

- I'm going to bed . Until tomorrow, decide what to do next. If we all stay together or split into teams and each for himself.

Then she headed towards the cave she cleaned earlier.

People would stay away from her from now on, and among those in space she would prefer only a few as company, but if she is to stay alone it is not bad either.

Except that as soon as she prepared the bed bought from the system, three people appeared at the entrance of her cave.

They were the elf, the star woman and Fahim.

Anka looked at them questioningly.

- Girl, we will stay with you tonight and if you want we can team up.

The one who had spoken was the elf. His attitude was now much different. Anaka seemed to have successfully impressed him and considers her an equal now.
