The Bloodline System

> ”But what does this have to do with anything? ” Falco asked.

”It has to do with everything because this mission he embarked on was to acquire the nearly extinct ingredients needed to create a cure for Angy ’s ailment, ” Dr. Levi explained.

Upon hearing that, the place turned silent again for a while as they stared at Endric once again.

At this point, Endric already knew that they had figured out what he did to Angy since they were all here.

He arrived in front of them and paused his steps.

”Look, I know what I did wasn ’t right. I regret my decision, and I made amends for it by embarking on this mission. You all have to believe me; I really have changed, ” Endric voiced out.

Falco wanted to say something when Aildris held onto his shoulder from behind and shook his head.

”It ’s alright, Endric, ” Aildris voiced out as he walked forward and stood opposite Endric.

”But when did this happen? And how? ” Aildris asked.

”It ’s been up around five months now… *Sigh* it ’s a long story, but I was foolishly obeying the orders of someone I ’m not allowed to mention, ” Endric stated.

They all had looks of curiosity upon hearing that, but with this confirmation they knew, Endric had performed this action before his supposed change.

”Whose orders were you obeying? ” E.E voiced out from the side.

”I ’m not allowed to mention, ” Endric responded as he pictured the image of someone in his head.

”Why? ” Aildris asked.

”Because… I ’m not. Big broth… I mean Gustav, made me vow not to reveal this to anyone. I can ’t disobey him, ” Endric revealed.

”Oh… Gustav knows about this? ” E.E asked.

”Yes, he knows about the person and has decided to handle it himself, but he has no idea about what I did to Angy because her body only started reacting to it seriously after he left, ” Endric explained properly to prevent them from misunderstanding.

”Typical Gus, ” E.E wasn ’t surprised that Gustav knew about what was up with Endric and didn ’t tell them.

”He always liked handling things himself anyways. I ’ll give him a piece of my mind when he ’s back, ” E.E said with both a playful and serious tone.

”Are you kids done playing police with your interrogations? If so, allow the kid to bring me the items so I can begin preparing your friend ’s cure, ” Dr. Levi stated from behind.

A wry smile appeared on Aildris and E.E ’s faces as they moved to the side to leave room for Endric to walk through.

Endric arrived in front of Dr. Levi, who was standing in front of a massive laboratory table and began handing him the items he got from the desert, with the exception of the gemstone he found in the deserted village.

”This should only take a couple of hours, ” Dr. Levi voiced out as he began arranging all the materials needed for Angy ’s cure on the laboratory table.

At this point, everyone decided to leave in the meantime and come back the next day when it would be done since it was currently nightfall.
