Chapter 292 - Bob and Justicé does his job

Justicé of course only knew a little of what was going on, but his main job as far as he was concerned, was to do his job properly with minimum fuss. 

As a result, when Itvasme and her accompanying Dark Rizzards eventually showed up at the Information Customer Service Counter, he actually didn't have too many judgements about the fact that the 'customers' were dressed in ragged cloaks and looked like a bunch of cosplaying cultists who all could probably do with a bit more sun, based on their rather pale complexions...

"How can I help you?" He said without batting an eyelid.

Itvasme kept quiet, keeping in mind the principles of 'less is more' power that she had ingrained and internalised since an early age, since she believed that this would convey more aura.

At the same time, she signalled to one of the Dark Rizzards and gave him a nod, to go ahead and make the query, again in her mind augmenting her social presence.

Heh. All according to plan!

The Dark Rizzard in question gave a calm nod of affirmation as if he fully understood the mission, had it all under control and strode forward with a confident swagger.

"Hi." They introduced themselves. 

"Bro... Can I ask you... what's the secret to these meatballs? They taste incredible...!!!"

"Yeah." Another Dark Rizzard came forward, munching on their hotdog. 

"Not to mention these hotdogs. They're such good value. Can you tell me more about the membership options?"

"..."

This was in fact the problem with staying quiet, and assuming that people would always have the intelligence to pick up what you put down.

As the saying (which Author may or may not have just made up in order to sound more credible) went, the best systems were engineered to allow for successful outcomes in spite of humanity, and not because of it. 

Itvasme in fact hadn't told the DRSABCDs the complete picture of just exactly what or why they were stealing Eggs and harassing shopkeepers out in the middle of a bunch of Secret Islands, adhering to the Dark Rizz Mantra that people should only know things on a 'need-to-know' basis....

As far as the Dark Rizzards were concerned, they were just doing these odd tasks for the sake of contribution points!

However, interrupting now would made her look weak and lacking control. As a result, after enduring Justicé signing up most of the Dark Rizzards to the Central Convenience Store membership so that they could access all-you-can-eat hotdogs, meatballs, and get a 10% discount off all in-store purchases!!! - Itvasme was obliged to clear her throat and come forward, all the whilst inwardly gritting her teeth at the sheer incompetence that she seemed to be surrounded with...

At the same time, really, she mainly had her own 'subtle communication methods' to blame …!
