Chapter 371: Back Up Back
Daisy turned back and waved her hand.
'What is this feeling I am having since I woke up?', Daisy thought as she tried to calm herself down.
"I feel like something bad has happened or is about to happen", she placed her hand on her chest and said, "I hope it's just a feeling"
'I want to see Lil Das' face and hear his voice to calm myself down'.
Without running, Daisy rushed her way to Das' room.
As she reached his room, she heard, "Is anyone there?"
A wide smile appeared on Daisy's face as she opened the door and entered the room.
She saw Das standing near the closet with his back facing the door.
She sighed in relief and closed the door.
"Where is everyone?"
"Who do you mean by everyone?
================
Das was sleeping on the couch of the living room of his house… imagined house.
Lily rushed to Das and shook him, saying, "Das. Das!"
Das immediately opened his eyes and sat up in fear.
He hugged Lily and said, "What's wrong?"
Lily hugged him back and said, "Nothing is wrong"
"Huh? So why did you wake me up like that?"
"Your phone is ringing"
"Huh?"
"Your phone, it's ringing"
"Come on, Lily. You woke me up for a phone call?"
"Yes"
"Who is it?"
"I don't know, it's a number"
"Then track it"
"I can't do it"
"Why?"
"Did you forget that I have slowed down the time here"
"Ah! I can't interact with the outside world"
"And you can't pick it up either?"
"No"
Sigh~
He sighed and said, "Fine. Kick me out of here"
"Your head will hurt due to the sudden interruption, and your body will be out of sync"
"I am aware that"
Lily kicked Das out of her dimension.
Das opened his eyes in the real world and said, "Even though I knew my head would hurt, but this pain is too much to endure."
He sat up and glanced around.
Lier was sleeping on his right side, and Daisy was sleeping on his left side.
"Look at them. Only if they were this quiet all the time"
Das crawled out of the bed and tried to stand on his feet, but his body wasn't in perfect sync right now.
He jumped with one leg to the table to grab his phone.
As soon as he grabbed his phone, he lost his balance and fell down on his back.
"Huh? This call is on my private number"
'I have only given this number to my family and Serah. Who is this? Calling me on my personal number at this hour?'
"Could it be… enemies?"
He gulped down and thought, 'Should I pick it up?'
"Lily, start tracking"
[Pick up the call first]
Das picked up the call and moved the phone to his ear.
"...."
'Is this a prank call? Or someone called by mistake?'
He muted the call and said, "Lily, how is the tracking going?"
[I can't track the call]
"What?"
[I can't track the call. It's encrypted]
[ Pants! Pants~]
"What the---!"
Panting noises could be heard over the phone.
Who is this?
Annoyed, Das was about to cut the call.
[Hello?]
It was a girl's voice.
"You still can't track it, Lily?"
[I can't]
The call was still on mute, so the person on the phone couldn't hear anything.
[Hello, this is…. This is Cecilia speaking. You gave me this number and said if I ever need your help, I can call you]
"..."
The girl was panting continuously. As if she was running. Her voice sounded so scared and out of breath.
Das was speechless hearing that.
[Hello. Hello! Das Ryle. I need your help. Hello, hello. I need--]
The call disconnected after that.
Das stood up and said, "Lily. Boost every process of my body. Set it to the max, start scanning all the CCTV cameras of the surrounding cities, and tell me if you find any girl running or trying to run from someone"
[Wait! Who was the girl and why are you--]
"Later, Lily, "
Das rushed to the closet and opened it.
He took out a bag from the closet and said, "I am glad I brought this"
He opened the bag and took out a black hoodie and black trousers, as well as black shoes, and wore them.
[Das. Tell me what's going on]
"Wait a minute, Lily"
He took out a mask and a belt which had daggers on them.
The daggers were hooked to the keychain, which had a switch.
Das put the mast back in the back and said, "I won't be needing it since I have this"
He took out the rink and made a small ball by changing its shape.
He brought the call closer to his head and squeezed it as it became an earring.
He put the belt back in the bag and took out two small daggers as he said, "I might need them"
After closing the closet, he slowly walked to the window and opened it.
He took a deep breath and looked at Sleeping Daisy and Lier.
He put the hood of the hoodie on his head and jumped out of the window.
"Tell me the safe route to get out of the palace, Lily"
[First tell me what's going on? And who was that girl?]
"Let me tell you a story about how and what I was before I met Elena"
