Archer[Quinn] wanted to act without Ryo[Eno] knowing what he had planned for now, that way he couldn't play any of his games on him. At the same time, choosing either of the options relied on Ryo[Eno] quite a bit which Archer[Quinn] didn't like.
Still, for his new plan to work there were many moving parts he would have to do himself, and he also needed to check if it was possible. Him and Tobias[Logan] would have to work closely on this one, while making it seem like Archer[Quinn] had chosen one of the options for now.
As for Ryo[Eno], he had been left to his own devices, allowing him to travel around the Cursed ship along with his 'friend' Hudson[Brock]. Although the relationship between the two still wasn't clear. The Cursed leaders apart from Cody[Meg]an who was still in the dark about the others' secrets, were to keep an eye on Ryo[Eno] when they could.
Although, ever since the broadcast, everywhere Ryo[Eno] went it was hard to not know where he was, for even the Cursed faction members wanted to talk to him and knew who he was.
When talking to the regular members on board, he had asked simple questions about the Cursed faction, such as when did they join and what do they think of the group. It didn't seem like he was stirring up trouble like with the main leaders.
After so much observing, they found out that Ryo[Eno] was really doing what he said, just wandering around and observing. Archer[Quinn] couldn't stay with him forever so It was deemed fine to leave him alone.
Of course, one of the only reasons this was allowed was because of Tobias[Logan], who had access to the cameras around the Cursed ship, and also had one of his small spiders following Ryo[Eno] at all times, but he wasn't an idiot. He knew most likely Ryo[Eno] and Hudson[Brock] had an idea they were being followed, and could turn off or interfere with his equipment.
Ryo[Eno] was one of the few smart people who could actually go against Tobias[Logan], but if anything strange did occur, then that would also be a sign and Archer[Quinn] would be informed straight away.
Currently, Tobias[Logan] while working away on what Archer[Quinn] had tasked him with, was watching what Ryo[Eno] was doing. The pair of goggles he would usually wear over his eyes while he did work, was showing a video feed that allowed Tobias[Logan] to see everything in the top left hand corner.
At the same time, he could concentrate on doing his work, and through his skill[ability] the spider would inform him if it thought it had seen anything suspicious as well, in case there were a few things he had missed.
As for what Ryo[Eno] was doing at this very moment, he had entered a training room that was producing noise even through the soundproof rooms. It was also clear that the other members of the Cursed faction were avoiding the room, so naturally Ryo[Eno] was interested.
When he entered the room along with Hudson[Brock], the sound of constant clashes could be heard even clearer now, and in the training room, sparks were flying off while two swords were doing battle.
"Did you sense them?" Simon[Leo] asked, as he continued his strike and it was blocked by Gyro[Erin].
"Of course!" She shouted back, trying to swing a heavy strike of her own, but she was tired and overextended, allowing her body weight to shift for a brief second. Simon[Leo] used this to move in and gave Gyro[Erin] a shoulder barge as she came in, knocking her to the ground.
Both of them were completely covered in sweat. For vampires, this was incredibly rare as it took a lot for them, based on how large their stamina was. Even when training, hardly anyone pushed their bodies to this point.
"Let's stop for now." Simon[Leo] said, it wasn't because their tank was empty, but he just didn't like the fact that the guests were watching their every move, and Simon[Leo] and Gyro[Erin] had some secrets they didn't want to particularly share with outsiders.
"Oh, you two don't have to stop just because we came in, it was just getting good." Ryo[Eno] said with a smile. As the fight ended as well, Gyro[Erin]'s hair started to change back from the black colour going to its original blonde.
This was something that she had eventually learnt to control based on who she was around at the moment. However, when battling using certain strength it would change to black. Ryo[Eno] looked at this and it looked as if he wanted to say something but had decided not to.
"Hudson[Brock]." Simon[Leo] called out. "Is this the master that you spoke of before?"
"It is." Hudson[Brock] replied.
Simon[Leo] started to walk up to the two of them, and was cautious while Gyro[Erin] followed from behind.
"Although the two of us have not met, I hope I am not rude by requesting this." Simon[Leo] bowed. " I was hoping you could help me with some information." Simon[Leo] asked, looking towards Ryo[Eno].
"Ah yes, Hudson[Brock] did inform me that someone was quite interested in Pure, I assume that you would be the one, but you must not know me very well and if you don't you will do. I only tell people what I wish, if they are to do me a favour or have something that I want in return. An equivalent exchange.
"Information on the Pure leader's appearance is very valuable information, which means you would owe me quite the big favour." Ryo[Eno] said with a smile. "So I would be happy to tell you, as long as you comply with one of my requests."
When looking at Ryo[Eno], something was sending goosebumps inside Gyro[Erin]'s body. She didn't like this person. She had felt this way when seeing someone else from the vampire world, which was Charles[Bryce]. Someone who didn't seem like an outright bad person, but it didn't mean they weren't a bad person.
"I'm sorry to hear that, but then I must decline, " Simon[Leo] replied. "If it is information worth warranting a deal over, then perhaps I shouldn't know about it in the first place."
Hudson[Brock] could tell that his master was quite surprised by this person's response. It was clear that Simon[Leo] was very interested in knowing who the Pure leader was, but then why wouldn't he attempt to make a deal?
"Maybe you can help me with another thing, " Simon[Leo] said. "Perhaps you could inform me and tell me, who do you think is stronger? Surely you must know the Pure leader's strength?"
"I would say I have a pretty good idea, but I do not know your strength so I would be unable to find out that answer." Ryo[Eno] replied.
After that, Simon[Leo] didn't say anything else, and just decided to walk past Ryo[Eno] with Gyro[Erin] following behind him, leaving the room. For a second, Ryo[Eno] was left there in his own thoughts, thinking about what had just happened.
It followed him into his room and followed him everywhere, not noticing anything out of the ordinary, and Ryo[Eno] had gone to sleep.
Meanwhile, in the hallway itself, another figure that looked exactly like Ryo[Eno] was standing outside of a certain door.
'The Green boy is suspicious of me but I don't blame him. He is doing well and this is how he should act. However, he is unaware of what I can do, and that is where he will fail.'
Seemingly entering the room, he was silent, walking towards the bed. The person's blonde hair could be seen, trailing off her bed.
'A Demonicus[Dhampir] is no one's friend. It might be better off to kill her now before she causes more trouble for everyone.' Ryo[Eno] thought.
Taking a step forward, his hand was glowing red, and his eyes at the same time, but he stopped. Almost hesitating with what to do.
'Should I really interfere? The Cursed faction has done well because of the group of people Archer[Quinn] has managed to surround himself with. This may ruin everything.'
Letting the red aura go, Ryo[Eno] turned around, only to have a blade pointed towards his neck, and the one holding the sword was the bald blind man he had seen earlier.
"Maybe we will find out the answer to my question."
