Chapter 1282: Rei's Plea For Help
Everyone in the room stopped their conversation almost immediately and they were focused on Rei's plea for help. (With the exception of Peppers who was quietly taking one more piece of chicken cutlet to put in her mouth. And yet with so much meat, she never grows wider, taller or even fatter. One does wonder where all those calories went.)
"Continue on Rei, I did promise that we will help you to get your family back. And if Sebastia had located them and could not teleport them via the usual means, I could only assume they are in some situation which would require our intervention." Jin said and Rei nodded his head.
"Are you sure, you guys want to hear me out?" Rei started to worry that he had broken the flow of conversation among the entire group.
"The Banned Emperor is an outstanding issue, there won't be much progress in the short run and there is nothing we can do without sufficient preparation. On the other hand, your case can warrant a quick rescue operation." Kong Rong replied with a smile.
"Ohhhh. That smile~! Someone is itching to blow off some steam." Kraft chuckled when he saw Kong Rong's expression.
"You bet, all this revelation just angered me. It seems I had to reorganise my team once more and be more careful on what to report while making sure not to arouse any suspicions from the higher up. Now we know one potential source of breach within our information systems, and it's how we are going to deal with it that is giving me a big fucking headache."
"I don't pity his lifestyle. Compared to our Lord, this upcoming Dragon Lord had his hands full of secret agent shit and dealing with public nonsense too. I think he sometimes wished to be someone much more ordinary." Hou Fei gave his opinion while Ke Loong added that he wished to see another world.
"You mean someone like Jin?" Qiu Yue queried and Lynn raised her shoulders in objection while shaking her head.
"You been if Jin when he did not have his System powers? Perhaps. Because right now that stupid boy had been overworking himself too much with the PandaVerse Festival while ensuring the preparation for the Great Demon Rat War. Each day, the reports from the Farming World had been increasing with more frequent Demon Rat incursions on the towns that we are protecting. It seems that they know we are doing something and they are throwing bodies to stop us as well. The only good thing that comes out from that is the random items they give whenever they die." Lynn reported.
"Looks like someone is awfully concerned." Qiu Yue pulled Lynn's arm by her side and giggled happily. Lynn could not deny that but Jin tried to pull the conversation back to Rei's plea for help.
"So you can see, everyone here is willing to help. Heck, we might even go right now after this dinner to get them. Just tell us what you know." Jin answered and Rei decided that its best for the person who found his family to give the actual background of the entire situation. Thus, he requested Jin and the System to summon her for them to have Sebastia explain everything.
"Master!" Sebastia was delighted to see Jin after a very long while and immediately kneeled to show her respect.
"Sebastia, join us for dinner and give us your report on Rei's family," Jin said and added that it's an order that she had to comply knowing that she would be too embarrassed to eat at the table with them. And before she had any objections, Lynn already went into the kitchen to take another plate of rice, all ready for her to partake in the dinner with them.
"If you insist, then this is my honour. Also, thank you, Lynn. I missed you and your penguin's cooking very very much." Sebastia said as she was specially given a seat right beside Jin as the group continue to eat while Sebastia revealed her report.
In summary, ever since Rei had mysteriously disappeared, his wife Charlotte had been working hard to find his whereabouts as well. The only thing she could think of was that he had been captured by the opposing group of countries. Thus, she decided to spy for both ends especially when she was a talented enough engineer while single handedly taking care of their kid, Hathaway.
Similar to her parents, Hathaway was not just smart but capable of taking herself. She usually studies what her father had left and also eventually found out how her mother was working for both sides of the war. In fact, she was so brilliant that Hathaway aided her mother in a few projects in ways Charlotte could never think before and it was to the point that they both decided to work secretly to find their father.
"Now the only problem is that the mother and daughter had been caught almost at the same time for it to be considered as a coincidence. I had information to prove that there was a sting operation that had been conducted to catch such traitors. However, because of the knowledge they had given to both sides, they were considered valuable …commodities. The war had been stifling and became deadly was the contributions from the two of them. They were part of the team which made the Mechas into an essential backbone of their armies."
Sebastia said as she took a breath and chewed on chicken meat while the rest continued to ponder at it. Kraft even stared back at Rei as if questioning his abilities and how he got such an amazing wife and daughter while he was just a mediocre engineer from the Mecha World.
"If we ever want information on the Mechanical Brain of the Gigant Titan, Charlotte and Hathaway is your best bet,'' Sebastia added. "The information on that had been very sketchy despite my fervent attempts to uncover it."
"Two prison spaceships, maximum security. So we're doing it Moon Wars style?" Jin said and the rest seems like they were on board with the idea of freeing Rei's family.
