“Why do you ask?” Ann asked listening to me ask the whereabouts of the dungeon relocation apparatus that Luna borrowed from the Morningstar university.
“Leave the questions for the later, just answer me right now. Time is of the essence people,” I said stressing that I did not have the time to explain everything to everyone and they should just follow my lead.
“In the wake of the recent chain of events we did not have the time to bother about that but I will ask the researchers who acted as Luna’s assistant in the project to get you the status update on it as soon as possible,” Anna answered not pressing me for an explanation. Despite the misunderstanding between us right now, when it mattered she chose to stand by my side without hesitation. I did not have any doubt about Anna’s loyalty. This was why I was having a hard time choosing.
“Does that mean, Luna did not steal the dungeon relocation apparatus along with the silver beach dungeon card?” I asked in anticipation that Luna did not steal the dungeon relocation equipment as it was the most important piece of my plan to bring everything back on track.
“Yes,” Anna nodded giving me the answer I was seeking.
“The dungeon relocation equipment is too big for her or the Freedom Fighters to steal in the limited time they had so it was left untouched,” Ann explained seeing Anna already spilled the beans without waiting for me to give them an explanation.
Hearing Ann’s explanation I nodded in understanding and then said, “What do guys plan to do with it?”
“Well, it was rented by Luna from the Morningstar university at an expensive rental, we are planning to return it to the university since we do not have a use for it anymore,” Ann answered not bothering to hold back any information seeing how Anna would reveal anything she would try to hide, so she decided she might as well corporate with the boy.
“Did Lana get insurance for the dungeon relocation apparatus while renting it?” I asked.
“Considering it is Luna she would have gotten insurance, why do you ask?” Ann asked in confusion as she did not understand what I was planning to do enquiring about insurance of the dungeon relocation apparatus.
“Great,” I shouted in excitement and said, “Quickly move the dungeon relocation apparatus to a secured location and send the news to the Morningstar university that the dungeon relocation apparatus was stolen by the freedom fighters and have the insurance compensate the Morningstar university for their troubles.”
“What? Have you gone crazy?” Ann yelled in disbelief listening to the boy asking the southern royal family to steal the dungeon relocation apparatus from the Morningstar university blaming the freedom fighter for it and simultaneously committing insurance fraud.
“Amazing, why did I not think of that? I will contact the southern watch company here in the city and ask them to move the dungeon relocation apparatus to a secure location asap,” Anna enthusiastically got on board with the boy’s idea of stealing the dungeon relocation apparatus from the Morningstar university by using the freedom fighters as the scapegoat and compensating the university by committing insurance fraud. This way the Southern Royal family would gain the covet technique of dungeon relocation without having to spend a dime. Anna regretted that why she did not think of this idea.
“Anna, have you gone mad? Don’t tell me you seriously getting on board with his insane idea. We cannot do this,” Ann protested and stopped Anna from calling the southern watch and ordering them to hide the dungeon relocation apparatus in a secret location.
“Give me a reason why I should not be doing this and it better not be about ethics and moral obligations,” Anna asked Ann to give a reason to which Ann responded saying, ” I will give you two.”
“First, if you steal the dungeon relocation apparatus from Morningstar university now, in the future it will be harder for us to borrow other high-end equipment from them or the other top universities.
Second, even if you were to ignore the impact of something like this on our reputation. You have to remember that other than Luna no one else in the southern region knows how to use the dungeon relocation apparatus. So even if we were to steal the dungeon relocation it would not be worth more than a scrape mental unless we know how to operate it.
These two reasons should be more than enough to give merit for the point I am making right,” As promised, Ann gave two reasons why Anna should not be going through my insane idea.
“…” Listening to the reason put forward by Ann, Anna realized that the idea proposed by the boy was indeed insane. Therefore she turned to look at the boy and said, “Wyatt, you heard her, I don’t mind going through with your idea if you still insist but what Ann said does make sense. Without Luna, no one in the southern region can operate the dungeon relocation apparatus. So there is no point in stealing it.”
With Anna’s words, it was clear that she did not seem to care about the effect of her action on the reputation of the southern royal family. She did not seem to see it as a reason why she should not be going through with the idea proposed by the boy. If it was just that she would not hesitate to follow through with the boy’s idea.
“…” Listening to Anna, Ann was shocked, ‘What the fock do you mean by you will go through his plan if he insists, did I not just explain to you how insane and pointless his idea was? Grandma and Mother were right to assume that she will be the ruin of our family. What was grandpa thinking to make her his heir.’
