"Fate Weavers, huh? To think I would hear about another one after such a long time," I sighed as I started making up bullshit again. The vampire's eyes slowly reached up to me while I continued speaking.
"Your request isn't certainly impossible, but it sure is damn annoying."
"??" He looked up at me with slight anticipation. Slight worry. Slight hope.
"You see. Fate weavers are destined to see the end of the world. They are there to change the fate of this world. To which direction solely depends upon what they are capable of. So killing them is impossible. Though if it were to bring them to justice…"
I trailed off as I put my hands on my chin and pretended to think.
His eyes widened as he heard my words. Observing my face, his face lit up a little as I got his hopes up.
"All right. Then tell me, what are you going to do in exchange for this task that might impact all three realms of Zarraf?" I then looked at him with a serious expression.
Simply saying something like 'kill her for me because I know you will do it,' is not gonna cut it, you know?
"??"
And his eyes widened even more.
"Pitiful existence you are, the deeds you committed aren't less atrocious either. What exactly should I make of this situation? Tell me, young vampire, for what reason shall I go fight against a fate weaver? And those behind them?" I asked as I looked at him, my eyes observing his entire being.
"The Grimoire of Yesterday. I know it's location," he said as I heard his heart beating loudly. He was scared, much more than he was before. It wasn't the fear of a 'Heaven's Guardian' standing in front of him, but the fact that all his life would be worthless if I refused him right now.
As for the [Grimoire of Yesterday]. Even I know its location.
"It's in the Library of Heaven's Path. Section 7, 4th Row, locked in 17 Parallel Runes and Arrays," I answered him with no change in my apathetic expression.
And his worst fears were realized as he observed me while he spoke out," I also know the Rune Eclipse-"
"In the Treasury of the 1st Hell Guardian," I answered.
"The Flower of Gia-"
"Mountain of Freedom," I answered.
"The Lost Dungeon-"
"River of Sphynx," I answered.
His breath hitched as he looked at me with hopelessness sinking in. His eyes began shaking even more as tears of blood started flowing out.
"The Gateway to heaven will-"
"Open 2 years from now near Heaven's path," I answered again.
Or was it answering? I guess, at this point, I was completing his sentences now.
"I will give some points to the efforts," I said as I looked at him, more or less broken, as all his knowledge bore nothing. Nevertheless, this wasn't just any information, but information worth costing nations.
"I-"
"You can't provide me with anything of value," I answered as I looked at Aisha behind me helping Geralt stand, while they both looked at me, with their eyes filled with complication.
"How about you answer some of my questions and we can see if we can come to a deal closer to what you want? Perhaps not going against her, but I can help you meet her? Perhaps that should give some semblance of meaning to your existence?" I spoke as I had already decided to use him for the players to come.
But first, let's get all the answers we can get from here.
I looked at his silent face as he tried his best to think of something that would be useful to me. Something that he could provide me in exchange for the revenge he holds so dear.
And in the absolute darkness, his mind swam. I threw the silver lining to which he could cling to, as he so desperately wants to.
"Tell me the things you did. Let's start with repentance. Work for me, for the next few years, do what I am asking of you and then perhaps I will help you out of pity," I looked at him with little empathy, while he looked up to me with his emotions in a turmoil.
'Should I break him a bit more before giving some crumbs of hope?' I thought as I looked at him for a couple of seconds before I thought maybe I should. Though thankfully, he spoke before I could reach that point,
"Okay. I will do whatever you ask of me. As long as you promise you will help me meet that bitch, I can even slaughter entire nations for you."
His eyes looked at me with even more disgust than before.
'Hmmm? Was there anything he didn't like about me?' I thought as I asked,
"Destroy nations? Why would I do something so menial?"
He looked at me with his eyes narrowed as I continued," young vampire. You and I are going to do something way beyond that. Something that will shake the very foundation of Zarraf."
I gave a bright smile, close enough to madness, making him gulp as I continued,
"We are going to create a war between heaven and the mortal realm, pull the gods down to the world, and then remove the rifts between the three realms."
Damn, I said too much bullshit. But that was the only thing I could think of when I said, 'Destroying nations is menial.' Well… whatever.
"…"
"…"
"…"
And the three of them looked at me with an absurd expression, while I observed them with a thoughtful look before continuing,
"Well. That is something that is going to happen later, so let's not focus on that. First things first, young vampire. What is your name? And is that really all we know about that angel in question?"
Though I said that, the vampire didn't seem to have come out of the previous shock I just gave him. His eyes were even questioning the absurdity of what I said to him just now.
'I should just [Restart], shouldn't I?' I laughed as I spouted too much nonsense at once.
