BXBX NOVEL Chapter 69 Pike Is Dead!
Simon could not speak anything for a while, because he did not expect Zoravec to do any such thing. Because it was unexpected for something like that to occur from Zoravec. However, when Zoravec and Simon took the turn towards the left corridor which led towards the staircase. Zoravec immediately pushed him against the wall by grabbing his shoulders.
"Now tell me, what did you mean by those words?"
He jerked Simon by his shoulders to help him come to his senses. Because for some reason Simon was not able to control his tears. Zoravec placed his hand over his shoulder but even that did not stop Simon from crying.
"Wah, don\'t do anything to me, please."
Simon let out a loud cry but Zoravec immediately covered his mouth to shut him. Zoravec groaned inwardly upon seeing the way Simon reacted to him. It was being what Zoravec had ever expected from him, after all he was one of Pike\'s lackeys who were strongest in the school.
Zoravec nodded at Simon to ensure that he would keep his tone lower. They both could not afford to gather attention at that crucial time. Right?
"Fuck it! Then tell me what did you mean by those words? What happened to Pike?"
Simon responded to him with a nod as Zoravec questioned him in a whisper. He was sure that something was definitely wrong with the whole situation.
There was no way that Pike and his lackeys could get hurt to the extent of apologising. Zoravec waited for Simon to speak as he removed his hand and looked into his eyes to find out something. Zoravec was sure that Simon would not lie about such a thing, which would tarnish his reputation along with Pike in the whole school. Even though they were alone at that time.
Simon once again shed a tear before he replied to Zoravec. It surprised him regarding the way Simon was wailing as if he had been under some severe or shocking grievance. However, Zoravec supported him by his chest and pushed him upwards, Simon looked at him and immediately hugged Zoravec.
"Pike... Pike is dead!"
The words hit Zoravec like a thunderbolt, he had no clue why Simon would lie about any such thing. Or perhaps whatever he said was actually true. Maybe Pike was really dead! Zoravec took a few silent moments to figure out the things before he questioned Simon.
He pushed him away from the hug, and stared straight at Simon in his eyes. There was no hint of a lie or joke. Simon was not joking, it was not a plan or any such thing. He could talk a guess because the way Pike got hurt last time there was no way he would survive.
\'Fuck! No, no. no way. He can\'t die. Nobody can die with just one fucking punch.\'
Zoravec muddled to himself with the possibility because there was no way that someone would actually die with one punch.he clearly remembered punching his nose and not somewhere else, the possibility was slim of Pike dying with that.
Zoravec released Simon and stepped back, Simon slumped on the floor as he burst in crying. However, Pike stared at him silently before he burst out in a hysterical laughter. Simon immediately looked up at him and then hurriedly skimmed the long stretched empty arcade.
He did not intend anyone to see them both like that because they were known to be enemies. How could Simon let the other students know that they both had been talking normally. Simon had no intention of exposing himself while crying, he could not hold back himself when he heard Zoravec had finally come to the school, finally. Well, he was an hour late. Remember?
"Haha! What? What the hell!?"
Simon looked at him completely confused because he did not think that Zoravec would react like that. However, it somewhat made sense, Simon wiped his face with the sleeve as he stood up to assure Zoravec.
Whereas Zoravec laughed wholeheartedly with one hand over his tummy. When he finally controlled himself he looked at Simon with a mocking gaze. Simon knew Zoravec was unable to believe him after whatever they had done to him. But Simon eventually came to him solely because he needed to earn Zoravec\' apology before dying.
"Okay, I shall believe you. But you gotta tell me how did Pike even die?"
Zoravec challenged Simon with those twisted words, he mocked him to prove his words and his death. Simon knew what it meant but he had no clue how to make sure that Zoravec would be.
Simon took one step forward towards Zoravec and made sure that he was looking at him. He knew that there was no point in hiding the details from Zoravec because he deserved to know. After all, it was unexpected for Pike to die like that and asking for forgiveness was even more weird.
"I know it is shocking to you, Zoravec. But don\'t you think you are crossing your limits? Just because Pike is no more between us, you forgot your place, huh."
Simon realised that Zoravec had been ridiculing him ever since he came to him. He grasped that Zoravec was flying high just because he asked for forgiveness on Pike\'s behalf.
But now he could not take it anymore because Zoravec was becoming out of control. He mistook Simon\'s apology for weakness, well that was what Simon thought. However, at that moment he just wanted to teach Zoravec a lesson.
"Hah, now that he is gone a dog like you is calling is mistaking it as his day."
Simon leaped forward with his arms folded and ensured that Zoravec would look at him with attention. He wanted to put Zoravec in his place so he would not tell anybody what happened there and how it affected their roles. Zoravec could feel the way he had been treating him now, which was totally different from the previous one.
"It was a good thing that Pike kept your leash in his hands. You deserved to be treated like that, you little punk!"
The words infuriated Zorvaec but somehow he just clenched his fist and glared at Simon. Devi on the other hand had been floating in the air and was listening to all that bullshit.
The demoness could not keep herself calm acknowledging what it meant. She had a strong hunch about the chaos which was about to come. However, there was really no way to prevent it, Simon brought the calamity upon himself on his own. He had no way to run from Zoravec now.
