Arc 06: Bard and Rapire Famiglia

Chapter 38 – Aftermath of Destroying Rapire Famiglia Part Two

~ KHR ~

~ Back to Mei-Rin's Point Of View ~

~ Inside the females' onsen ~

I sighed in relaxation in the warm water while closing my eyes. It has been a while since I relaxed, ever since working for many Famiglia as a maid or a sniper. But then, I never expected to be ordered to kill the Vongola boss and found Bard again. And the freelance hitman Molte… he truly is as strong as the rumours say he is.

Then, I heard someone walking softly to where I was and I restrained the urge to react while opening my eyes to see who it is. It is a lady with silver medium long hair with a towel wrapped around the body.

She smiled at me. "I did not know there was somebody else here. You must be one of Molte-kun's friends right?" while going into the water.

I choked. 'Molte-kun's friend…?!'

She gasped and went closer to me. "Are you alright?"

I calmed down and sighed. "I am fine. You must be Ina-san, right?"

Ina seems to think for a while and then suddenly grabbed my hands. I had to resist the urge to fight back again.

"Yes, you really are one of Molte-kun's friends!"

I laughed sheepishly. "I suppose so… Anyway, Ina-san, why are you staying here?"

Ina laughed softly. "I am not supposed to say, but it is because of my illness that I am staying here to regain my health."

I was shocked. "Eh~ but you look so beautiful now!"

Ina smiled. "Era~ thank you Mei-Rin-san."

I was shocked again. "How did you know my name?"

Ina hummed and puts a finger to her lips. "It is a secret~ but do not worry, I only know your name."

I smirked. "You are really interesting."

Ina nods and we talked about random things and a little bit about our lives.

~ Molte's Point Of View ~

~ Inside the showers ~

~ Males' section ~

I took off my hair band while turning on the water showers. My long hair flowed down and a few meters of my hair touch the floor while water flowed through it. I then begin scrubbing off any blood that got into my hair and washed it. While I was doing so, I sensed Matsuhi and Aruta just outside where I am, leaning against the wall and they wanted some answers.

I put up a sound barrier. "What is wrong, Matsuhi, Aruta?"

"Who was the pale child that you brought back just now?"

"His name is Spanner, and he was one of the victims of the Rapire Famiglia which I completely destroyed before coming here. It is just as I told you just now."

Matsuhi raised an eyebrow. "You made it rain red today? I thought you did not want to make it rain red anymore nowadays?"

"I usually do not want to, but this time it is a special case. Anyway, if you were to know what that b*****d Famiglia did to Spanner for the last three years. You will know why I did it. Besides, Vindice was the one who wanted me to completely destroy the Rapire Famiglia and to only leave the boss alive for Vindice to deal with him. I will give you all the details later."

Aruta folded his hands. "Based on how his wounds were when I healed him, he was definitely treated roughly by 'them'. I think it is better for Molte-sama to look over him again because I am still unable to heal 'that' degree of wounds yet."

I hummed. "I suppose so… you should study more than, Aruta..." and I took off my towel to wipe my hair. "I will be going to join them in the onsen now. Remember to wash the dirty clothes, tell the girls to do the same."

Matsuhi and Aruta bowed. "Okay Molte-sama."

I smirked. "Good acting as well…" and I walked to the onsen bath where Bard, Finny and Snake are at the moment.

~ KHR ~

~ After Molte left ~

~Matsuhi and Aruta's Point Of View ~

Matsuhi puts his right hand over his right eye to reveal a red eye with the kanji six on it. "Kufufu~ acting as head butler is really fun~"

Aruta dead-panned. "Of course it is for you, Matsuhi-sama. You still get to order people around, byon. I really do not know why I have to be a butler that is good at healing, kakipi."

Matsuhi shakes his head. "Kufufu~ you should ask boss that question. After all, he chose our 'positions' for this."

Aruta nods. "Maybe I will ask. Let us just do our duty now, kakipi," and he sighed.

Matsuhi chuckled. "Kufu~ let us just get this over with."

They went into where the clothes are and took the dirty clothes to the laundry room. Matsuhi told Sumiko and Kamiko to take the dirty clothes to the laundry room.

Then, they scrubbed off the blood from the clothes and washed it. After that, they put the clothes out to dry in the drying room.

~ Bard, Finnian and Snake's Point Of View ~

~ Inside the males' onsen ~

They were relaxing in the warm water with a floating tray in between of them. There were three cups of sake and a sake bottle on it.

Finnian took one of the sake cups and sipped it. "This is relaxing."

Snake took one of the sake cups and sighed. "I agree."

Bard took the last sake cup and sighed as well. "Enjoy this moment while you can. When we go back to Vongola's HQ, you will not be relaxing at all until my boss' decide to do with you three."

Finnian and Snake paled at that.

Finnian looks to Snake. "Maybe we should reconsider going to work for Vongola and go freelancing again."

Snake nods. "I would like that to."

Bard rolled his eyes at them. "You will just be taken advantage of again if someone manages to take away your beloved items as hostages, and Mei-Rin would have to kill someone to save the both of you. Besides, Vongola is not that bad. I have been working for them for around eight years now."

Finnian puts down his sake cup and refilled it. "What about that 'boy' then? Who is he really?"

Bard chuckled. "I cannot really say much about the boy since I made a deal with him. But that boy's name is Molte, currently the personal bodyguard of my boss and he is Vongola Nono's most trusted person even more so than Reborn and his guardians. He is also known as the unofficial strongest hitman in the world."

Finnian and Snake jaw-dropped. "What…?!"

Suddenly, they heard a chuckle. "You two are really easily scared…"

Their hearts skipped a beat and they turned towards the source of the voice. One of them slightly gasped while the other two were shocked again.

~ KHR ~

~ Normal Point of View ~

Bard shakes his head. "You… you told me before that your hair was long, but I never thought it was this long."

Molte smirked while going into the warm water. "I do not really let others know how long my hair really is. The only ones who know about my real hair length are Matsuhi and his gang, Bard, 'them' and now you two."

Finnian got over his shock. "Who are 'them'...?"

Molte hummed. "People you do not need to know unless you are like Bard, but he too does not fully understand it."

Snake then got over his shock as well. "What do you mean?"

Molte shrugged. "Once you prove your loyalty to Timoteo-sama, I will make a deal with you three, the same deal I had with Bard."

Next, they all talked about random things of their lives with Molte occasionally mocking Finnian and Snake about being adults, but they did not discover that while Bard was amused and trying not to laugh out loud because of them.

~ KHR ~

~ Thirty minutes later ~

~ After all of them were satisfied of cleaning up themselves ~

Bard, Finnian and Snake got out of the onsen and changed into the new set of clothes which were given to them in the clothes room while Molte tied his long hair back into his usual short hair after wearing his new set of clothes on. He then went somewhere else while talking on the phone with someone he says is important. Bard can surely say that it is his boss, Vongola Nono, Timoteo.

After they finished changing their clothes, Matsuhi and Aruta led them back to the living room.

Meanwhile with Mei-Rin, it is just as suspected by Molte. After Mei-Rin and Ina finished cleaning themselves, Ina wanted Mei-Rin to go into her room with her. But Sumiko and Kamiko suddenly came in just as Ina said those words and told Ina that Molte does not allow this. Ina pouted at that, but went back into her room without a fuss with Kamiko accompanying her while Sumiko told Mei-Rin to change into her new set of clothes.

Mei-Rin sighed and went into the clothes' room to wear the new set of clothes given to her. Then, she was led into the living room by Sumiko.

~ KHR ~

~ Molte and Timoteo talking through the phone ~

Molte sat down on Matsuhi's bed. "Hello~"

Timoteo sighed. "Where are you right now? You do not usually take this long to destroy a Famiglia."

Molte hummed. "You are talking like I destroy a whole Famiglia on a daily basis. But anyway, can you not guess?"

Timoteo twitched. "My Hyper Intuition is not as strong as yours Molte. I am just having a feeling that you have destroyed the Rapire Famiglia and have found one of your allies among the Rapire Famiglia's victim."

"O~ you are right. Anyway, I am back in the Ombra Famiglia's HQ with Bard and his three friends. We have just finished cleaning ourselves up."

Timoteo face-palmed. "Why the h**k did you bring them to your HQ to shower?!"

Molte shrugged. "Because I felt like it."

Timoteo groaned. "You really are too much like Reborn."

"Considering that he taught me all that he knows in the alternate universe, it should not be a surprise."

Timoteo sighed again. "Whatever… anyway, when you can bring Bard and his friends back to Vongola HQ? The kitchen staffs are getting suspicious because Bard is gone and Tenko is in charge of the kitchen."

"After this phone call ends. Where would you like them to be delivered?"

"Put them into Interrogation Room 1. I will tell Bouche to prepare the room."

Molte nods. "Okay Timoteo-sama. But let me remind you that Bard and his three friends are all 'Immortals' and Vindice have several laws concerning them because of their rarity. Please remember this, Timoteo-sama."

Timoteo nods too. "I understand," and he closed his phone while Molte did the same.

~ KHR ~

~ Vongola's HQ ~

~ Timoteo's Point Of View ~

I closed my phone and kept it while standing up and walking to Coyote who was waiting for me outside of the private room.

Coyote stood straight with his hands folded. "How is it?"

"Molte told me they will be arriving soon and I told him to transport them into Interrogation Room 1. Bouche will handle the interrogation, but I have to remind him about some other things as well."

Coyote nods. "Understood boss."

We walked to where Bouche is and I talked to him about the interrogations that he will handle.

~ KHR ~

~ Ombra Famiglia's HQ ~

~ Molte's Point Of View ~

I walked out of Matsuhi's room and into the living room leisurely. I saw Bard and his three friends conversing in English about the Vongola Famiglia.

I cleared my throat. "Let us go to Vongola's HQ now, we have delayed this more than enough."

Bard nods, but the other three paled.

Bard sighed. "Why are you guys so afraid anyway?"

"Because the people we worked for before were all part of the mafia, and they took advantage of us?"

I raised an eyebrow. "Was that a statement or a question?"

Finnian blushed slightly. "A statement."

Bard laughed. "Maa~ do not worry about it. Let us go…" and he holds my hand.

Mei-Rin, Finnian and Snake take hold of Bard's hand which is free. They were then surrounded by mists and disappeared.

~ KHR ~

~ Vongola's HQ ~

~ Inside Interrogation Room 1 ~

Timoteo, Coyote and Bouche were waiting for their 'guests' to arrive. A few moments later, mists surround the place and five people appeared.

Molte grabs Mei-Rin, Finnian and Snake's hands and drag them to in front of the three people originally here. Molte then forced the three of them to sit in front of the three top members of the Vongola Famiglia. Bard went to lean against the wall in the shadows to watch, just in case Mei-Rin, Finnian and Snake decided to attack Timoteo.

Mei-Rin, Finnian and Snake were uncomfortable about this and all of them were aware of this. Bouche started to talk to the three of them, and when they were asked something they do not know about Molte helped them out.

A few hours later, Bouche finished his talk with Mei-Rin, Finnian and Snake. It is also late at night now as Mei-Rin attacked Vongola's HQ around noon, the complete destruction of the Rapire Famiglia happened at 4 p.m., and going back to Vongola's HQ at 8.30 p.m.

Anyway, Mei-Rin, Finnian and Bard pledged their loyalty to Timoteo just as Bard did. Just like that, Mei-Rin became the head maid while Snake became the head butler and Finnian and became the head gardener of the Vongola Famiglia. Their rooms were next to Bard's, the same as the four kids.

After they were finally cleared and Timoteo deem them okay to have weapons hidden on them, Bard leads them into the kitchen quietly as it was after midnight. Tenko and the gang were still there waiting for Bard inside the kitchen and they were introduced to each other.

Molte had stayed behind inside the Interrogation Room 1 to explain about his actions to Timoteo with Coyote and Bouche listening as well. At the end of the explanation, Timoteo face-palmed and sighed while Coyote and Bouche jaw-dropped.

"Why do you always do things like this?"

Molte smirked. "Because it is my duty, for my role is'to be surrounded by mysteries and sometimes becoming the enemy to protect the Famiglia from the true enemies within the shadows. This… is the duty of the 'VPG'.'"
