23: To My Dearest Illusionist

[donmillefiore]

I am back here just in time, as I've promised. Buon Compleanno, Mukuro-kun. I know you are used to hearing 'happy birthday' but still, I really mean it. I hope you will really love my special gift for you.

[OOC: To Chrome-mun; I am very busy today so I will post that open log when I am home this evening. (Uploading this from my mobile phone.) If

You kept me waiting long enough.

[donmillefiore]

There was a bit of technical problem...but I did keep my promise.

[mukurou69]

Did someone die?

[donmillefiore]

Well, that would have been my ideal solution. Unfortunately, no one died.

[mukurou69]

Then what was the issue?

[donmillefiore]

Your birthday present.

[mukurou69]

Do tell~

[donmillefiore]

I was actually planning to give it as a wedding gift but since you have made my patience wear thin with your recent sweetness, I'm giving this as your birthday present instead.

[He smiles as he sends a scan of a certain contract; a contract to completely free Mukuro from Vindice.]

[mukurou69]

...How did you persuade them? They would have needed assurance I would not abuse my freedom.

[donmillefiore]

Let just say I have offered them an interesting bargain. Remember what I got from the Estraneo?

[mukurou69]

Vaguely. It is part of the formula that keeps one in the form of a child, yes?

[donmillefiore]

Correct. That plus a few special conditions... It will be enough to make a contract.

[mukurou69]

...I still do not understand why they would release me like this.

[donmillefiore]

Mafia business is a very tricky concept. You do not need to understand, love. All that matters here is the result.

[mukurou69]

Don't treat me like a fool, Byakuran. I want to understand why.

[donmillefiore]

Why do you think I did manage to take GHOST out in that future, Mukuro-kun? It's mostly about the bargain and influence.
