Chapter 88: Compilation

*Shown to everyone in the dining room*

Amine: Well, you have some idea how to escape, don't you?

Eden: No

Amine: Huh? So how do you intend to flee?

Eden: Don't worry, I have my methods

Takemi: It's not that I'm backing down, but I don't think that fleeing by force is a good option, besides we can't use our powers and we don't have weapons either

Eden: I know. Can I ask something?

Takemi: Yes, what's wrong?

Eden: Is there a king's family in this place?

Takemi: Many say yes, but so far we haven't seen anyone

Eden: Really?

Amine: Yes, it's a myth that circulates among prisoners. It is said that the king locked them up for questioning his decisions

Eden: I see...

Eden: *Think* From the little I know, the king wants to sacrifice these people, although I don't know how. But assuming he still has a bit of sanity, he'll have them set aside to avoid some conflicts

Takemi: What's wrong?

Eden: It's nothing. Although assuming that myth is true, don't you think that some guard will have a family member here?

Takemi: What do you want to get at?

Amine: Do you plan to take any hostage?

Eden: Don't be an idiot, we're not in a position to do that. We will promise a way out for their relatives

Amine: And how do you intend to do it? If we don't know how to get out

Takemi: That's why he needs to negotiate with the guards, to get information

Eden: That's right. But I think there is someone who can negotiate in a better way

Takemi: Won't you go to...

Amine: Huh? What's going on?

*Eden is shown next to a reinforced door*

Prisoner 1: What do you want?

Eden: Some people told me that you have a good relationship with the guards

Prisoner 1: Maybe, do you come to ask me for a favor?

Eden: It's an order

Prisoner 1: You'd better stop dreaming, brat

Eden: What's going on? Can no one superior to you give you orders?

*The prisoner bangs on the door with great force and anger*

Prisoner 1: You'd better shut your pickaxe if you don't want to die

Eden: I know you're not an idiot, and you'll do what's best for you. That's why I'm here, you're the only one who can do it

Prisoner 1: Neither money, nor food, nor anything is useful here. There's nothing worthwhile that you can give me

Eden: I can give you your freedom. And not only from here, but from the kingdom

*The prisoner is surprised*

Eden: Actually I would love to cut off your head, I have a special hatred for murderers. But, sometimes you have to make difficult decisions to continue living

Prisoner 1: *Laughs* You're a brat who likes to dream big. However, I'm not interested. There's no escaping from here and much less am I going to put my life on a brat like you. Besides, you'd better shut up, the cameras can hear us

Eden: Which chambers?

Prisoner 1: What?

*Disabled cameras shown*

Prisoner 1: What have you done?

Eden: Just some businesses, don't you think they're a good idea?

Prisoner 1: Damn Who Are You?

Eden: I'm just a brat who doesn't want to waste time locked up here

Prisoner 1: *Think* That look... it is that of a real monster, it is of someone who has seen death very closely

Eden: I need a lot of guards on our side. I need a map of this place and a list of names of his relatives

Prisoner 1: That's a lot. Also, what do you plan to do with the names?

Eden: If he were a fortune teller he could protect his relatives. But unfortunately I'm not

Prisoner 1: Release them?

Eden: Yes, that's my goal. But for that I need you to negotiate, offer him anything, but I need it soon

Prisoner 1: *sighs* Okay. But don't forget, if necessary I'll kill you

Eden: Don't worry, I was aware of it. See you, murderer

*Cameras turn back on*

Prisoner 1: This Will Be a Very Long Night

*Spend the night and the three are shown eating together*

Amine: Have you gotten any information?

Eden: Yes, something like that

Takemi: I'm surprised that guy agreed to negotiate

Eden: It's human, after all there's always something we desire

Takemi: Yes... we always hold on to something...

Amine: Well, do you know when we're going to run away?

Eden: In two days, everything is fixed

Takemi: So fast? How is this possible?

Eden: It's all thanks to that guy, he knows how to negotiate very well

Amine: I hope he didn't negotiate with our lives

Eden: I doubt I've done it with yours, with mine perhaps, but no problem, I'll be able to take care of it

Takemi: Eden, thank you

Eden: Huh? Why?

Takemi: I always thought I was going to die here locked up and doing nothing. But, you've been an inspiration to me, I'm glad I met you

Eden: You don't talk like I'm dying idiot, we're all going to get out of here, together

Amine: That, that

Eden: *Think* This is bad...

*Eden is shown being embraced by dark spirits*

Eden: *Think* I can't appreciate my tools... I can't
