chapter 4

"c'mon sit down", "how about aki?" Holmes asked.

"I've sent wei yang one of the greatest martial artist to teach him so don't worry much" Holmes nodded and he remained silent.

moments later Shiki asked Holmes why he's so quiet.

Holmes stared at him and confronted him. "Shiki what are you hiding from me, don't you trust me?"

Shiki stared at him and he replied. "what's with you today, but anyway it's not like that. This is what I was gonna discuss with you today", but then Holmes interrupted.

"WHAT DO YOU THINK OF ME, A MERE SERVANT? I'VE DONE EVERYTHING FOR YOU YET YOU CAN'T SEE IT. YOU'RE SMART AND I ENVY YOU FOR IT BUT YOU...what I am to you?" Holmes yelled angrily.

"sit down Holmes it's an order" Shiki ordered with such a gentle voice.

"I appreciate your hardwork, if you think I don't know about a thing that you've done for me, I would rather die than ignore such things. I'm sorry, you're my friend and you're the one I trust the most. Did you heard some gossip outside again? I told you not to believe in them you're more precious to me than those people in the organization with me Holmes. Let me tell you, inside my territory THERE'S A TRAITOR."

Holmes calmed down and he apologized immediately saying he's wronged and he's sorry for yelling. Things got better immediately and they discussed farther more.

"Holmes I need your help, investigate outside and find out who the traitor is,make sure you discover who it is. I want you to do it yourself, your the only one I trust in here I can't let onother men do such task. I would do it with you if I could but I'm sorry I have some business to attend attend to", "ok I got it, I shall know who that shameless bastard is dares to betray his eminence."

Shiki asked Holmes to rest and he would begin investigating tommorow. Holmes did as he said but before Holmes could get out Holmes halted, "by the way Shiki sama, one of your servants who's with us first time aki came here have spread ridiculous rumors about you. it's said that you..." Holmes laughed. "said what?" Shiki asked. "saying that your hair grew one inch longer and that your eyes turned grey to red as ruby while you took off your disguise" Holmes laughed making Shiki pissed. "damn with that servant. She didn't even see me as she was in onother carriage that bitch. Why'd you bring servants with you at that time you idiot?" Shiki was pissed as hell that Holmes laughed so bad. Holmes have got out and is finally getting ready to get out of the mansion.

shiki mumbled, "Hair grew one inch longer my ***. What's that a wolf? my hair is fine as how they are why shorten them wether I'm in disguise, I've only changed the style damn it. How dare she spread such rumors. also what's with eyes from grey to red my eyes indeed is red but wether I'm in disguise my eyes would be blue not grey. That bitch got the nerve how'd she come up with such idea as GREY TO RED. I'll spare you for today as I'm in a good mood you lucky servant."

three days later Holmes came back. He was planning on pissing Shiki off as what he usually do. He walked towards Shiki as Shiki was sitting in a very big rock with a paper and a paintbrush in his hands, having a sword beside him. as he's approaching Shiki, suddenly...

"who is it?" As Shiki grabbed and swung his sword. Before if could cut his expected target his attack got delayed and he pulled down his sword. "Holmes you're back, welcome back. how is it going?"

"i found the traitor and I made him confess..... before he could finish, Shiki interrupted saying "let's continue this inside."

When they got in, they both sat down and continued. "He confessed when I threatened him with his family. He said that he wa being paid to expose information about what's going on and what's the status in here. I think he's telling the truth and he's in prison now."

"I've figured that much, alright. You rest properly now" Shiki says.

"Shiki do you have a clue about who's behind this?" Holmes asked.

"Yes, I do. If my guess we're right the one who's behind this is Vader, leader of Leona."

"Vader, you mean the white death Vader? What business does he have with you, why's he after you?" Holmes asked.

"you'll soon know Holmes, I'll tell you in detail next time. Rest for now we're both tired.

Tommorow come with me, the two of us will set out"

The sun have raised.

They're in a carriage heading to a certain place.

"where are we heading now Shiki?"

"to create some trouble. The capital of Leona is our destination."

"Haa? what're you thinking, have you lost your mind? it's like a sheep wandering in the wolves territory" Holmes said worriedly.

"it's fine. Let's say that the sheep has friends. Millions of lions beside him" Shiki replied with a smile.

"ahh man there's no stopping you. What're you planning now?"

"heh let's uhh leave that topic at the eleventh hour. oh just kidding. We're here."

They finally reached the capital of Leona. "Let's stay in this inn for as we're here"

While they're resting they continued the conversation. "let's create a havoc shall we? Holmes what's the thing that Leona's well known of again?".

hmmm I think it's that they make the finest liquor second to yonzhou empire in all empires. Holmes applied

"destroy the factory they're so proud of"

"oh sure I'll do it right n... WHAAAAT? how?"

"it's not half of what they did! I would kill them directly if I could but that's impossible. I could kill them if I want but that would make me the enemy of many empires. They made allies with them and I'm not dumb to let that happen and put a lot of lives on the line for a stupid revenge. I'll do it my way therefore I would drag them down and Mae them kneel.

"ahhh it's funny, this is the reason why I followed you anyway, so I agree with you one hundred percent. I'll follow and support you whatever you do" said Holmes as he bowed down.
