The real Nega

   It was like a hangover after a raging night party. Their heads were aching and their eyes were heavy, so much that they couldn't make out were they were. It was as if they had too much of 'that good wine' and the choking smell in the room made things worse.

   "This smells like Nega" Orie groaned as he managed to get up

   "What's that?" Shiro asked as he also stood up

   "It's actually a 'who" Orie replied

   "And he's the king of Dahüd"

   Slowly, everyone recovered from the drowsiness and were able to see clearly. Before them was a man sitted on what could only be described as a throne.

   It's cushions were pure black and every other part of it was made of gold. The man sitting on it was just as magnificent. His skin was gleaming dark, the brown in his eyes were as the middle part of a sunflower, and his hair shot straight up and was flat at the top. There was no jewelry on him but the mere sight of him brought gold and diamonds into one's thought.

   Just by looking at him, one could tell that he was no ordinary person. From the shoes he wore to the cigar he smoked, the only thing they could think of addressing him as was "BOSS"

   With a smile he looked at them and said in a very calm and relaxed voice "I'm John Joseph Jamal Jnr"

   "But you can call me Nega"

   There was silence for about a minute and everyone just stood stunned in admiration. It lasted until Orie made a move broke the silence.

   "Negaaa!!!" He said in a low crooked voice as he walked to the king with his hands wide open his knees pointing in different directions, leaving a wide gap in between his legs.

   To the surprise of everyone, the king, Nega stood up did same thing walking towards Orie. When they got to each other, they shook hands and hugged while the others stood in a daze.

   "How you doing?, market boy" Nega asked as he hugged Orie.

   "I see you're still calling me that" Orie replied with a smile

   "Anyway I'm doing doing fine" he added

   "Sorry for game situation" Nega said apologetically as he pulled away from the hug.

   "We were supposed to turn it off" he added

   "Don't worry about it" Orie replied

   "I kinda enjoyed it" 

   "So... What's the emergency?"

   Meanwhile, the others were murmuring to themselves about the entire situation.

   "Wait a minute" Shiro said

   "Do they know each other?" Mia asked

   "He's a very mysterious fellow" Natsumi commented

   "He knows a lot of gods so kings shouldn't be a problem" 

   "By the way" Yamato said

   "Doesn't thas guy have a familiar aura?" He asked

   "I feel like I'm powerless in his presence"

   "Like I need his permission to do anything at all as far as I'm in his domain" 

   "Now that you've mentioned it" Shiro said

   "I kind of feel the same" Mia added

   "Isn't it obvious?" Victor said

   "The child we protected in the game is the same person standing with Orie"

   "You can even tell by nickname" 

   "The name 'NEGA' is not just for show"

   "So" Orie said

   "What's the emergency?" he asked

   Nega was silent for brief moment, then he answered.

   "The thing is," he said

   "One of our fellow priests is dead"

   "And there is something strange about his death"
