Hyperic
Mansion Dwellers

After finishing dinner with Vera went out first and went to the balcony of Noele's house, where there were two chairs and a table, and there was a table,he was sitting on one of the chairs that was there with the table in front of him, he was sitting looking at the sky that had neither stars nor clouds because all he saw was the base of the top caste city,that night the air was quite cold, the colorful city lights illuminated the city of Mesopotamia, the robot, the cyborg, and the people who walked made the atmosphere of the city very crowded even at night,he thought of his little brother whose whereabouts were unknown, he had to see Richard as soon as possible because he was the mastermind behind the events 6 years ago and maybe he was the one who brought the children to a farm,or it could be called an unknown building location, not long after Hiki came carrying 2 cups of coffee, he sat in a chair next to Vera and put both his coffee on the table, he said,no conversation begins until Hiki opens the topic

"The weather today is pretty cold huh"

Vera is surprised because Hiki isn't usually pleasantries

"Sudah tau cuaca dingin tapi kamu mengenakan Tank top dan celana pendek"

"Kenapa? Kamu tergoda?"

"Mana mungkin!"

"Mungkin saja"

Suasana kembali sunyi,pikiran Vera masih kemana-mana sementara Hiki masih berusaha membuat suasana cair

"Hiki,kenapa kamu membantu diriku? Aku tau kamu membantu diriku karena aku telah aku telah membantu dirimu...tapi dengan kekuatan mu yang jauh diatas diriku bukankah lebih mudah jika kamu membunuhku?"

"Aku tidak punya alasan untuk membunuhmu,lagi pula kamu cukup menarik"

"Kamu jatuh cinta padaku?"

"Jangan mengatakan hal bodoh,itu mustahil"

"Ngomong-ngomong kepribadian mu sangat berbeda ya dengan saat pertama kali kita bertemu"

"Karena itu hanya berpura-pura,sifatku yang sebenarnya adalah aku saat ini"

Vera menatap Hiki kemudian dia mengambil secangkir kopi yang ada di meja dan meminumnya

"Hiki, do you have someone you love?"

"Why are you asking?"

"Everybody has people they love, right?"

Hiki fell silent, her mouth tightly shut

"There"

"Who?"

"...."

"...?"

"It doesn't matter, for what reason do you know the name of that person, that person must be a very valuable person in my life"

"I saw the deaths of my parents in front of myself, when the chaos occurred, my mother's body split in two, while my father he sacrificed his life for us"

Vera held back the tears that were about to wet her cheeks she clenched her hands tightly

"If I were stronger, I would protect my own family.."

Hiki was silent just listening to Vera say that, then Hiki took a deep breath

"Let it pass, it is time to look to the future"

Hiki stood up she picked up her cup of coffee and walked towards the fence that bordered the balcony

"If you look too much into the past"

Hiki threw away the coffee, a strong wind blew away Hiki's short hair

"You're going to keep falling and it's never going to get better"

Vera fell silent, she lowered her head, contemplating what Hiki had said

"Now we have to focus on finding your sister's whereabouts, I'll help you"

Vera raised her head looking at Hiki, their eyes meeting each other

"Hiki...after all this will we continue to know each other?"

"Who knows, young Xiao, don't sleep too late"

Hiki walks past Vera and back into the Mansion before entering, when passing Vera, she pats Vera on the head until Vera is left alone on the balcony, while Joana is sleeping with Noele, who is in the middle of the night,he seems still unhappy with the presence of Hiki, Noele went into his room and saw Joana who was dressing up in front of the mirror

"Joana~ why don't you have dinner with us?"

Joana did not answer, she just focused on styling her hair while her eyes focused on the mirror, Noele walked behind Joana and hugged her

"Are you jealous?"

"No"

"You're easy to guess Joana"

"Whispering"

Joana blushes, the night goes by, and Hiki and Alvin walk down the hallway to the basement to interrogate Roman, while walking down the aisle they meet Lauriel, who seems to be terrified,when Lauriel saw Hiki he immediately ran towards her with a slightly pale face

"H-h-h-h-h"

"Quiet down! What's the matter Lauriel?"

"A-a-a"

"A? What's?"

"I saw S-s-s"

"S? S what? Speak properly!"

"Devil!!!"

"Ghost?"

"Malem I saw the demon Hiki!!! I swear it's not a lie, it's a real draw!!"

"ghosts? In modern times, is there such a thing as a ghost?"

"I'm not lying!! Seriously! I never lied to you! You believe me, right?"

"Stop bragging Lauriel, calm yourself"

"But Hi-"

"That's enough, I don't have much time for something like this"

Hiki and Alvin walk through Lauriel, while Lauriel is still filled with fear she walks in limped down with the help of the aisle wall, she meets Lucia and she also tells him

"The ghost?? Umm I think I saw it too, but I only saw a woman with a mask and a knife in her hand"

"That's it!! I swear it exactly!! He's got a mask with a knife!!!"

"Uh. okay-okay I believe calm yourself Lauriel"

Lucia hugs Lauriel trying to calm him down, while Hiki and Alvin arrive at the basement and she finds Romani sitting bound with her head covered in sacks

"Open his head"

Hiki's orders to Alvin, Alvin then opened the sack and Roman saw the face, Hiki took a wooden chair not far from there and sat in front of him

"You, Roman's right?"

"H-Hiki!!!!"

"You know me?"

"T-of course! Since the Asgard building incident 6 years ago your name has risen rapidly as a top-class villain!"

"Uhhh I don't like this, this is what makes me difficult to infiltrate everywhere.so do you know the incident of genocide 6 years ago"

"You're a hacker too, right?"

"Hmm I can say I'm just a cyborg programmer, but I'm pretty good at hacking"

"So do you know the mastermind behind the incident?"

"Richard of The Greatest"

"I've learned that, someone who hacked the city's security system, the guy who made the city's robots go berserk and lose control"

"uh? You're looking for her?"

"You know?"

"I know him, we've met several times, he's not Hiki's easy opponent, his Hyperia ability is dangerous"

"Then"

Hiki brings herself closer to Roman and pulls Roman's collar

"Tell me the details, where he is, and his abilities"

"Please let go first"

Hiki took off his grip, then Alvin shifted his hand and a blue hologram screen appeared

"There's a call from Max"

Alvin picked up the phone, then Max spoke with a gasp

"Alvin are you with Hiki?!"

"Yes, what's up?"

"Ruby can't be reached! It's awkward, even though he's shy but he must have picked up my phone, something's not right"

"Ruby?"

Hiki said, Hiki immediately opened the portal to the hidden room Ruby using a blue hole, the portal belongs to Ruby and only Hiki is allowed to access the portal,he immediately disappeared from the basement and then he sent a message to Alvin the contents of the message saying that Alvin should continue his interrogation

"Well Max, I have to continue this interrogation, until later"

Alvin turns off his phone, while Hiki, who has arrived there, sees Ruby, whose face is pale, lying on the bed

"Ruby!"

Hiki approached Ruby and grabbed her body

"Hiki.sorry to worry you"

"Your disease is relapsing?"

"I think yes.this is very painful Hiki.I think my body is hot and my organs will come out of my body"

"I know Ruby, are your Edelviet flowers gone?"

"Yes.sorry didn't tell you"

"Stupid! What if Max doesn't tell me!"

"I don't want to bother you"

"Defend, I'll attach a device to your body to ease your pain"

Hiki put the device on, and then she called Vera

"Vera please find Edelviet flowers, the rest ask Lauriel"

He immediately hung up the phone, Vera was confused by what happened, it happened that there was Lauriel who was walking with Lucia, Vera walked over to the two of them

"Lauriel!"

Sapa Vera from behind, they both turned their heads and turned around

"Apa Vera! Good morning!"

Greeting Lucia in a soft and sweet voice, in contrast to Lucia, Lauriel greeted Vera like a thug

"Yo Sohib!"

"A very striking difference..."

Vera said, then she conveyed Hiki's message to Lauriel

"Edelviet?!!"

Lauriel said, Lucia put her hand on her chin like thinking

"Edelviet yes.the flower is very far from here"

Lucia then suddenly Noele came and greeted them

"Oh! Hi everyone!"

He ran down the hall with his angel-looking smile, seeing Noele's smile, Vera blushed a little

"What's wrong? Umm where's Hikichi?"

"He told us to get Edelviet flowers"

"E-edelviet yes.the flower is very far from Mesopotamia..."

Hiki re-typed the message, this time he sent it to Lauriel

"Quick! Ruby's life is in danger!"

Lauriel realizes that the flower is a cure for Ruby

"Y!! I forgot! Noele can I borrow your vehicle?!!"

"Oh sure.."

Noele gave Lauriel the keys, Lauriel gave them to Lucia

"Lucia you drive, Vera come with us"

"I want to go with you too!"

Noele said, Lauriel agreed,then they both came out of the Mansion and immediately rushed to a flower field which took 3 days from Mesopotamia and from there to Mesopotamia also took 3 days,while Joana, who saw Noele walk out of the mansion window and without asking her permission, grew furious, returning to Alvin, she had earned the name and place of the second perpetrator of the genocide incident 6 years ago,a day goes by Joana feels lonely without Noele, she calls Noele and tells Noele to come back

"Back, I have the Edelviet flower"

Type Joana, Noele who read it told Lucia and the others, they came back, the night they had been in the mansion, and at the door was sure there were 4 bouquets of Edelviet flowers, too,Lauriel immediately picked it up and told Hiki

"Hiki I've got it!"

Hiki went to see Lauriel, then he went to the kitchen to make medicine from the flower, Hiki seemed to be in a hurry, he immediately returned to meet Ruby who was getting pale and drank the potion to Ruby

"Hold Ruby"

After taking the concoction, Ruby coughed, it took time for the drug to react

"Let's rest, you'll get better in a few hours"

Hiki walked out of Ruby's room and arrived in the hallway, she walked towards her room to rest because it was already night, when she entered her room and sat in front of the mirror, she heard her bedroom door open, she heard her room door open,at first he thought it was the wind, he walked shut the door, when he walked over and was about to lie down on the bed, suddenly his body bounced and hit the wall of the room

"Did?!!!"

Hiki fell to the floor, she was astonished by what happened then her body lifted up like a strangled person, but there was no one there, was that the ghost Lauriel was talking about?
