Transmigrated With A Resolution System

His body shook as he tried to struggle to keep his thoughts in check and not spill any, the hold on him was getting a larger hold on him than he wished.

"I don't want to die, not while I'd soon get my freedom from this hellish place." He said through gritted teeth, shaking his head as he struggled to keep his words as confidential as he could.

The fear he never knew he had developed set in, after hearing of the death of Aer and the cause, he couldn't determine what sort of words were alright to say and what not to say.

Wanting to be on the safest side, he would willingly choose silence. If he could fully complete the task that was given to him, maybe he could fill them in on all he knew.

"Not now, please. I can't say or spill what I know." He yelled in frustration. The ability that had been placed needed to be removed immediately as he was almost losing himself.

How he envisioned dying was not at the hand of the cursed pendant.

Nix signaled Lumina to cancel her skill. He had not realized how powerful her hold was, if not stronger than the current stage of his charisma trait.

While they had discussed back in the infirmary, he had pointed out something was unduly strange about Lank suggesting she puts up her barrier.

Deactivating the soundproofing barrier, they had caught word of Mr. Gaviel's knowledge of the whereabouts of Fae.

The interest had been sown, but all that had been interrupted by his sudden rush out the door.

Not wanting to be held back by Lank, Nix had made it possible to escape through the window with his passive gift.

They had wanted to confront him for a while, watching and following him with the shadows of the hallway as a cover.

Little did they know that Mr. Zhao was present.

Hearing whispers, they chose to wait it out, there was no way they would stay too long in Mr. Gaviel's office.

Immediately they had heard Mr. Zhao storm his way out, quickly slipping in, in his stead before the door locked.

At that exact moment did Nix have spoken that had brought about Mr. Gaviel's awareness of the fact that he wasn't alone.

Nix studied Mr. Gaviel, as much as he thought Mr. Gaviel was a crucial part of their investigation. What he had said sounded like he was telling the truth.

"Is there anyone who doesn't hold secrets here?" He questioned.

Lumina slapped the back of his head. She was as guilty and so was he. They had no right to develop a complex on that.

Mr. Gaviel's eyes widened at the interaction between the two. Thinking back on the paper given, he could only hope they stay this way.

"Nix..." He called out, letting out a light chuckle at their brief banter.

Nix hands his hand rubbing his head to the pain that Lumina had inflicted on him.

Looking up to Mr. Gaviel at the call of his name. Curious about what he wanted to say.

"Could you two promise me one thing?" He looked down sadly, feeling he was going to make a bad decision that would benefit him greatly.

"It depends on the promise." Nix shrugged.

"You're smart, I like that." Mr. Gaviel said with a smirk. He looked over to Lumina who stood quiet and her green eyes locked on him.

"I need you to promise you would always treasure those that are dearest to you. Not just keeping them close, but protecting the bond that has been formed. Look out for their welfare and never get sucked into the debased world of power."

Nix's mouth gaped open, he didn't have the time to process all that had been required of him, nor could he tell why this was being said to him.

Mr. Gaviel facepalmed, instantly regretting making a statement about him being smart. He couldn't even understand if he was merely pretending or was slow to catch on.

Lumina nodded her head, pulling Nix by the ear forcefully. She whispered a summarized version of what Mr. Gaviel had wanted to pass across.

Nix's eyes widened as she related all that had been said in simpler terms.

"You should have put it that way..." Nix scoffed, folding his arms in disappointment.

Mr. Gaviel lips drew into a thin line, narrowing his eyes at Nix.

"I do have a question that I need an answer to," Nix spoke up. "What makes you think I have dear ones?"

He had always chanted in different ways, a mantra that he had kept up until now– do not get too attached to anyone.

"You don't have anyone dear?" Mr. Gaviel furrowed his brows in confusion, his attention hinting towards Lumina.

Nix's eyes followed his eyes which had laid on Lumina. At that moment, he let out a sigh and shook his head.

"It seems you have things jumbled up, if the situation calls for it, I would protect those who need it but only those I consider weak and I'm willing to help or they are willing to accept it."

This statement confused him further, he knew Lumina was formidable, but he had never thought Nix had so much faith in her capabilities to consider not worth protecting.

A smile formed on his lips at the fond memory they had created. "Thank you for giving me this."

Nix cringed at the appreciation that he couldn't relate to.

This was the very drive he needed to continue living, knowing there was at least some good that would be able to stand against the master with time.

'I hope it won't be too late.' He focused his attention on Nix.

Nix shifted under the gaze of Mr. Gaviel, feeling uncomfortable.

"You might not understand now, but you would later on." He gave a hearty laugh.

"You would all do great, that I can see." He nodded his head to his words, finally making a final decision in his thoughts to go through with the task given to him with a hopeful mind.

"Where is Fae?" Lumina cut in, tired of waiting for the conversation to switch.
