Faraway from the ship, in an entirely different country two people are seen discussing in a Manor .
"I have a better idea, instead of blowing up the ship, since there are. Of course some very important people on it, why not send some assassins after them".
" Hmmm, that sounds okay, I'll see to it".
"No need Jack, you're already helping out alot, I'll handle this myself".
"Then I'll take my leave".
"Sure thing". He bows and takes his leave.
Few minutes later
"Spill it already, I hate suspense". Miss *** said to her maid who hid in a corner and listened to the conversation.
"I'm sorry for listening to your conversation, Miss please forgive me, it won't happen ever again ".
"I wouldn't ask again, spill whatever's in your mind or would you rather join your family in hell". Miss *** asked in an eerie, commanding and dreadful voice.
The maid quivered in fear and spoke like a little lamb awaiting slaughter.
"Miss, I was wondering why don't you just kill them, instead of all this... after all you are way more stronger than they are".
Hahaha ha, you silly girl,.. ". Looks at her and urges.
" Do you think I didn't think of that in the first place, (sighs), Why don't you sit so I can tell you why I can't do it and why I even want them dead in the first place ". Shocked the maid said,
" Oh okay Miss, thank you so much ". She draws near and stands next to the couch Miss *** is sitting on.
" Come on, don't stand, sit, I wouldn't bite". Miss laughs, the maid nods and sits opposite her.
"So it all begin.... Hahaha just kidding".
"Miss what do you mean ". The little girl( not a little girl but around eighteen or nineteen) is confused and asked.
'"Slash". "Slash".
"M.. i... ss". The girl struggles to mutter as she held her neck and looked down at her blood flowing profoundly.
The Sword passes through her neck the second time and she draws her final breath.
"Eunice". Miss *** calls a maid and she comes running.
"Miss you called". Her eyes widened as she saw the horror in front of her eyes.
"Stop staring". With cold piercing words Miss *** says.
Sorry miss ". Eunice quickly replied and she nods.
" Clean up this mess and make sure the couch is sparkling clean, I don't want to see a single stain, understood, or better still just throw it away if you can't ".Eunice nods and quickly replies.
" Yes miss". Miss *** walks toward the door, but just a step away she pauses
"Infact just throw it away, it's already filthy".
Eunice nods and starts cleaning.
Staring at the corpse, Miss *** thought to herself.
* Want me to reveal my plan to a useless wretched lowlife like you, hmpf!, what a foolish creature *. Then she leaves.
Now back to ELX, to be precise Sally and Everling.
" Oh my goodness this is amazing so big and beautiful ". Sally said as she and Everling moved round the Ship.
" I know right so...
"Look look look, a fancy restaurant I've always wanted to dine at one, let's go eat there ". Sally dragged Everling with her pointing at a restaurant a few meters ahead of them .
" No I don't think we should eat there, it could be very expensive ". Everling warned.
"Come on, what are you scared of,". "I'm not scared of anything I just don't want us to incur any extra costs".
"Please". Everling shook her head.
"I didn't want it to come to this, but you give me no choice". She breathed and continues with the puppy eyes.
"Pretty please ".
" You manipulator, you know I can't resist those puppy eyes". Everling tried to look away but couldn't.
" Pretty, pretty please ". Sally added still doing the puppy eyes.
" Hmmm". Everling paused to breath and then continued
"Fine then, but you're the one paying".
"Definitely, let's go". Sally dragged her along happily.
" Wow, this restaurant is so beautiful ". Everling exclaimed as they went in.
It had beautiful golden chairs and tables, many chandeliers hanging at the top of the high ceiling, waiters who carried out their works elegantly giving it a sublime look and even a water fountain.
"Ooh ooh, look at that free table". After sitting down, a waiter approached them.
"Good evening Ladies, may I have your order". The waiter gave them each a glass of water.
"We haven't gone through the menu yet"
"Okay miss please call me when you do, I'll be over there". The waiter points to the counter.
"Woow everything here looks so good..
Yes and also very expensive, but luckily for me you're the one who's paying, or else this would have definitely caused a dent in the money Miss Kate have us"
"Wait What, you're going to atleast pay for something right". Sally asked.
"Nope, you're the darling friend who's inviting me to dinner so I don't have to spend a dime, how thoughtful of you, thank you so much dear". Everling gave her a bright smile.

Recap

While they were in the car. Everling got a call from Miss Kate.
"I'm going to send all of you five million Zahilar in case you need to buy anything". Katherine said over the phone.
"Thank you so much! ". Everling answered before Kate bid them good bye.
( Currency of Xychozax :Zahilar §).

Back to the present
"Fine then, I mean it wouldn't be that expensive right". Sally agreed.
After screening the menu,
"I was wrong!!, there is nothing on this list that isn't expensive".
"How could Common Curry rice be §1 million, What the fuck!! did they add in it". Sally screamed.
"Hey young girl, mind your manners there're children in this place and besides who let a broke ass bitch like yourself get into here, why don't you just go away and buy some instant noodles, after all I'm sure that's all you can afford, right ". A smug looking rich lady sitting across their table said with her lips curved into a mocking smile.
What!!! How dare you, I'll teach you some respect.. ". Sally tries to stand up but Everling holds her back.
"Come on Sally, just let it be".
"What how preposterous, I was only giving you an advice, after all I'm pretty certain that's all you can afford". The lady continued mocking Sally and she seemed to enjoy Sally's angry face.
"Youuu..". Suddenly a light bulb flickers in her head and she laughs
"So you believe that's all I can afford, you must be the biggest fool in history".
"Waiter I've made my choice". The waiter rushed towards her and she orders three things.
"I've never tried sushi before so I'll like to get it, also beef steak and curry rice".
"Okay, miss coming right back". The waiter leaves.
"Wow you are actually not broke ". The lady exclaimed.
"Of course I am". Sally praised herself with a big smile.
"You must be very rich to be able to afford their beef steak". The lady said with glitters in her eyes.
" Oh no that's nothing, a little hundreds of thousands can't stop me". Sally added and raised up her glass to drink.
"Wow, you are so rich that §20 million feels like nothing to you". The lady exclaimed again.
"Hmm.... WAIT, YOU SAY WHAT NOW". Sally spat out the water and looked at the lady.
" Yeah, the beef steak is actually 20 million, you didn't know that ".
"Of course I didn't.....
" Well excuse me for a bit I'm going to the washroom". The lady stands up and heads to the washroom
Everling suddenly yanks Sally.
" You know even if we add both of our money together, it wouldn't be enough".
"Yeah I think I know that". Sally said amidst scratching her her hair.
"So what do you plan on doing??". Sally was about to answer when the waiter walked back up.
"Miss, here you go, please enjoy". After serving the waiter was about to leave when Sally asked.
"Sir about the bill...
" Miss no need to worry about the bill, a gentleman paid for it".
"Wait, someone paid for me". Visibly shocked, Sally asked and the waiter nodded.
"Who is,... this gentleman".
"He wishes to be anonymous,". The waiter replied. Wishing not to dig any deeper, she answered
"Fine then, thanks for the meal".
" Please enjoy". The waiter walks away.
"So what's up with you guys". The lady said again.
"Oh, shit you scared me". Sally almost jumped out of her seat. After regaining her composure, Sally lied with her full chest.
"Well nothing much, all I did was tell him to put it on my tab, you know, I'm a regular at this restaurant".
"Uhmm, you do know that this is the first time the Flamingo Luxury Cruise Ship is be used right, meaning you can't be a regular at a restaurant which just got open".
*Oh shit, she saw through my lie but how it was so flawless*. Sally thought.
"Don't mind my stupid subordinate, I'm always the one helping her out, I was the one who paid". Everling explained with a stern face looking through Sally's soul.
"I knew that you were just as broke as your outfit ". The lady hissed.
"Hey, I'm not broke and my.. outfit isn't even that bad..". Sally ended the last part with a whisper as Everling shot her a deadly stare.
Minutes later, Sally and Everling are done eating and are out of the restaurant.
'sighs'. "I guess we're out of there".
Everling sighed.
"Yeah and just like I told you there was no need to worry.. ". Sally said and added.
"I am truly an amazing hero...
Everling gave her a death stare and exploded.
What do you mean by you're a hero!!!, if not for that stranger!!! What would we have done!!".
"I'm sorry, so sorry, please don't kill me". Sally begged.
"Fine then, you are lucky I'm in a good mood or else.. But I do wonder who was that person". Everling ended the last part curiously.
"Yeah me too, but let's not dwell on the past, let's go have some fun". Checks the time in her smartphone.
"Just five hours till midnight, let's hurry".
"Fine as long as you don't get us into trouble".
"Yeah, yeah whatever, let's go". Dragging Everling along, Sally kept on exploring the ship.
