Tangled By Fate

Chapter 322 - OVIOR'S CONDITION

Ovior started another busy day when Arthur came to his office. He sat on the couch and declared, "I want to make love to my wife."

And that's how Ovior's mood was ruined. With an exceptionally sour expression, he bickered, "Why the hell are you telling me that? Go, tell your wife!"

"Yeah, right, I tell her, and she will accuse me saying I only love her body, not her soul."

Ovior shut the book with a loud sound. "That's not my problem. Don't just come here and brag about your love problem to me. Get out! Can't you see I'm busy?"

"Yes, yes, I see you are super busy doing nothing," Arthur replied in a bored tone. "That's why I feel like bothering you."

"I hate you," Ovior expressed his innermost feeling.

"I know. Where is Catherine? I don't see her." Arthur looked around as if he wasn't bothered by his friend's hatred.

Ovior took off his spectacles and wiped them with his white handkerchief. "Where else? She went on a date yesterday. She will come back later."

"Oh yes, I've seen her in Kerbell yesterday. She was with her boyfriend."

"Kerbell?" Ovior fixed his glasses. "That's pretty far. I hope she didn't use any magic balls."

"Why can't she? They are rather cheap here for the Tybu citizens. Isn't she a citizen in our country yet?"

Ovior shook his head. "Not yet. She and Veronica will get their passes soon."

"That long?" Arthur frowned. "It's been months."

"Well, our prince hadn't approved their applications yet."

Arthur stood up. "I'll go and talk to him."

At that moment, someone barged into the room. "Ovior, I just saw Arthur with another woman… Oh, my gosh!"? Darius fell on the floor when he saw Arthur standing right in front of him.

He stared at Arthur dumbly before asking, "Why the hell are you with another woman in another place and at the same time you are here as well?" After asking, he seemed to realize something. "Don't tell me that guy was a fake?"

"Where did you see someone who looked like me?" Arthur questioned him.

"Where else? The brothel. I spent my days there and then before coming, I just saw you with three women. You were fucking them with all your might," Darius explained.

"I haven't fucked in the last three days! Don't mention this again." Feeling annoyed, Arthur scolded him.

Darius was dumbstruck. "What did I do? I just told you what you asked for."

"And you came back without catching the guy?" Ovior rubbed his temple. "Unbelievable!"

Darius had his reasons. "How could I? I thought the guy was you! And more importantly, I wanted to protect my friend from having another separation."

"…" Arthur couldn't complain since Darius was the most supportive and understanding person when it came to playing with women.

"Go, get him," Arthur ordered him. "I think our enemy is closer."

"Roger!" Darius left just the way he came inside.

After he left, Catherine entered the office. "Good morning, Ovior, Arthur."

"Good morning," Ovior gave her a blunt reply.

"It sure is, Catherine. How was your date?" Arthur asked her.

Catherine blushed furiously when she recalled what happened last night. "…It… it was good," she stammered.

Arthur gave Ovior a teasing smile.

Ovior glared at him in return. 'I knew it! He asked her just to tease me. So what I'm single? I have a less problematic condition than the rest!'

------------------

Later, Darius brought back the guy who looked exactly like Arthur.

"Oh, my goodness! Another one?!" Veronica was astonished. After breakfast, she came to meet Arthur at his office when Darius dragged the guy inside.

"Tell me how you want me to interrogate this asshole. I will fulfill your wish." Darius licked his lips.

The guy who looked like Arthur shuddered. "I… I will tell you everything I know. Please save me!!!"

"Where did you find him?" Veronica looked at Darius.

"In the brothel," Darius answered truthfully when he saw Arthur's signal. "He was forcing some women to have sex with him."

Veronica closed her eyes. She didn't want to imagine someone doing something horrible with Arthur's face.

"You knew with whom your face resembles, right?" Arthur coolly asked.

The fake Arthur trembled. His eyes turned red; probably because of tears. "Master… Master… please forgive me. If I hadn't done that, I would have died of hunger."

Veronica asked, "Were you found in the street as well?"

The fake Arthur replied, "No, I was a prisoner."

"Prisoner?" Arthur raised an eyebrow. "That's interesting. So, how did you change your face?"

The fake Arthur told them, "A… man… he came to the prison. He asked me if I wanted to leave this prison and live a better life. I thought he was joking. I said yes. Then, he took me to the forest and opened a magic portal. The portal took us to a cave. It was smelly and full of knives.

"What about that dude? Did you see the dude's face?" Darius asked while kicking his stomach.

The fake Arthur curved his body in pain. He coughed some air. "Yes, I did."

"What does he look like?" Veronica was curious.

The fake Arthur shook his head. "…I don't know. I forgot his face. I can't remember no matter how many times I try to think."

"He is lying. Maybe we should take him to the torture room," Darius suggested.

"No! No, please no!" The fake Arthur panicked. "I will tell you everything. Please don't hurt me."

Darius pressed his leg on his knee. "You can't even tell us what we want to know. Did you not ask him anything?"

The fake Arthur could only endure the pain. "We had a long conversation but after I laid on the bed in their favor, I forgot what we were talking about. When I woke up, I got a new face. They took me out of the cave and told me to go to Silvertein and enjoy my life however I want. Afterward, I never saw that guy again. And I also forgot the remaining conversation."

"How useless! What else can you tell us?"
