CHAPTER 26 (2): DISCUSSION

Still, she answered him with a small smile. “Yes, Zeliker?”

“You and your brothers, please be careful. I know the royal children from other kingdoms may be close to you but who knows how deep their thoughts are. Be extra vigilant when handling this alliance with them. Test them to make sure they do have the same thoughts as us. If not, choose the one we can trust.” Zeliker warned them because he was worried something terrible would happen.

“Because we are representing not just Drick but also your home, Eskimos. We might make enemies.” He continued with a serious expression.

Xcerox nodded. “We understand. Please leave it to us while you do what you need to do. You have to be careful as well, Zeliker.”

“I will. After all, I am stronger than you all combined.” Zeliker smirked.

Some of them rolled their eyes at him.

“Erm, Zeliker, are you leaving early after we send the custody demons?” Stiria asked.

“I will be leaving after the party. You need my presence correct?”

Stiria nodded. “Yes. only with your presence would they believe us.”

“Alright. I guess that is all. Anything else you guys want to ask?” Zeliker stood up from his seat.

“Nope. I am famished.” Nish said honestly and everyone chuckled at him.

“Well, then, today’s dinner, which group is supposed to make it?” Silvert turns his sight on Enta and his friends.

“Me!”

“Me too!

“Me three!”

Five teenagers stood up while putting their hands up. Silvert nodded.

“Luuma, Ariva, River, Kuan, and Yomy. Come along.” Silvert went to the end of the left side of the dining room.

There was a door there with a half-lamp showing blue colour. He opened the door and went inside with the five teenagers.

“Can we use the kitchen too?” Nish asked Zeliker.

“Go ahead. I don’t mind at all. Ah, by the way. Don’t enter the opposite door of the kitchen.” Zeliker turns to the door he mentions.

The half-lamp above had turned to red from blue before.

“Why?” Stiria was curious.

“Red means danger. That’s where Silvert trains Enta, Kion and the others.”

“Now that you mention those strange colours. Please tell us what the rest of the colours mean. We might accidentally open somewhere we shouldn’t.” Xcerox and everyone needed to know that because it was important.

“Well, white means empty and it's where you can create anything except humans or animals. Blue means safe to open. Red as mentioned before. Black is the prison or you can say torture room…”

“What?! Why do you have a torture room for?! Are you a sadist?!” Ashla gawked in shock.

“No, the room is for the stubborn enemies we want to ask for information. Ah, it can also be a punishment room too for anyone who breaks the rules here.” Zeliker gives them an evil smile.

Everyone looked a little pale and gulped with worries. They even ask themselves if they did break any rules before. Wait, what were the rules? Zeliker never mentioned it before.

“Gold means my private room which is below the living room. Purple belonged to Silvert’s room which was beside mine. And don’t ever enter his. You might find something traumatising and exciting.” Zeliker continued.

“You make us more curious to enter, you know.” Gizelis sighed.

“Agree…” Some nodded their heads.

“Are you guys a masochist? If you do, go ahead and enter his room. If anything happens, I won’t be held responsible. I already told you.” Zeliker rolled his eyes at them.

“Last one is green. That’s the infirmary if you are injured.”

Trez remembered the room he was inside before. He had been silent since he sat there and still felt disbelief that a royal demon had become friends with the human royalty. But after hearing the request from Elamos, he finally realised these royals seriously want to unite the humans and demons. He could only listen to their discussion and didn't know if he wanted such changes.

Can humans and demon clans unite and live peacefully?

Eskimos have done it but now they were hated by both clans. It was not impossible either but as Zeliker said, it was a dangerous activity for them. He couldn’t decide whether to help them or not, yet he was in a life debt with Zeliker. He would wait and see then.

The dinner was done after half an hour and everyone helped themselves to finish all the meals until nothing was left. Then, another group of five teenagers including Enta went to wash the dishes. Zeliker and the group staying in the palace went back to their respective rooms while Miulwess and Stiria entered their own room inside the mansion.
