Chapter 184 Misfortune Knocks Twice
[Myla\'s POV]
…
…
It has been 20 minutes since he went into that red house as we kept a watchful eye on the place around. The number of Nightcrawlers has been reduced to zero and currently we are just sitting idly.
My eyes traced those girls, Irene and Miya. Irene looks beautiful. She has that mature look on her face with a tinge of dignity. I am pretty sure she too has a past of her own and experiences that she had gained. I wonder what is the relation between Michael and her.
As for the other girl, her beauty scares me. I have only seen her eyes through the mask she always keeps on. Even her hair and everything is mostly hidden by the hood, yet I feel inferior to her every time I look at her.
At first I thought that she was just beautiful, especially when I saw her energy level. But then she proved me wrong. She was far, far stronger than anyone I have seen. Just like Michael, she too has a different form of energy, which I cannot trace.
\'Just how do you end up finding people like that one after another, Michael?\' I thought as I recalled Caroline, whose energy level was always off the charts. As I recalled, Alissa, who could do things beyond anything I could imagine.
A sigh escaped my mouth as I looked at them talking with each other with a smiling face. They look so peac-
-Slash!
-Clank!
-BOOM!!
-BOOOM!!!
-BOOOM!!!
"Huh?!" My eyes turned wide as I found Reeve and George in front of me, each slashing a certain blade that was aimed at me. When did they reach here?
Confused, I looked in the direction where they were seriously gazing… three silhouettes, walking towards us.
Each donned in black, two men and one little girl, walking towards us. And looking at a distance, about a dozen more people followed them.
"Oh! They repelled our attack?" confused, that little girl spoke as she looked at us. While the other two smiled at her as one of them spoke,"Looks like we would be having some fun here."
"As long as my lady doesn\'t destroy them with annoyance," spoke the girl with a sigh while the other man spoke,"How long are we going to stay on this low energy planet, anyway?"
"I don\'t know. Maybe another 3 months? Sir Belial is coming later. Maybe after that?" the girl spoke, pondering as the three reached closer.
\'What?!\' my eyes widened as they stepped into my energy zone and I finally sensed their energy.
"Blergh!
Blergh!... cough cough… "I vomited, burdened by all that overwhelming energy. Those monsters… who are they… where they even came from… S? No… it\'s far beyond that… Much beyond that…
Wondering how Jeff was handling the situation, I looked around to see his unconscious body as his eyes were bleeding and some blood also poured out from his ears.
\'Is he dead?\' I concluded as I saw those symptoms of his… this was… just what kind of monsters….
"They look strong," spoke Irene first as she observed them while yawning as she looked at them. Her nonchalant words made me confused. Can\'t she see the power levels of those people?
"Listen-" as I was speaking, George and Walter answered Irene,
"Not really. They seem quite… lacking honestly"(Walter)
pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ "Maybe. But let\'s not underestimate, shall we?"(George)
I looked at Miya, hoping she would make them understand the complexity of the situation, but…
"How are we going to divide them between the three of us? Also Reeve, was it? You too have a few hidden cards, don\'t you? Wanna join us? The winner usually gets a reward," she spoke, making it more of a competition as she looked at them.
\'Huh?\' I questioned as I turned to Reeve, who was a bit hesitant before, but as soon as Miya spoke, he just sighed,"when did you find out?"
"From the start? Did you really think I couldn\'t?" Miya asked as she looked at Reeve, and he chuckled as he stretched a little and spoke,"I hoped so. Though, they don\'t look amateur to me. Are you sure we all can handle them?"
At his words, Miya just smiled as we waited for them to approach.
"The man behind, third from the right, is my uncle," Alex spoke as he pointed at the black-haired old guy who was holding a hammer in his hands and continued,"beside them is his daughter and the other two children." Then, after a brief pause, he declared,"they are mine."
"I will help, brother," spoke Erika as she joined. Alex looked at her with a glare but she just glared back, making him sigh before he spoke,"but you can\'t get closer than 10 meters in the fight," at which she just sighed before nodding happily.
"AAAA!!!" Jeff woke up with a frightened expression as he looked at us before turning at those people incoming towards us. His expression turned for the worse as he spoke,
"Everybody run! They are monsters! We need to run!!"
As he ran away, but after walking for a few steps, he realized that no one was running away. Confused, his eyes begged them to run. He turned to Reeve as he was about to explain something, but then Miya said,"Sleep."
And he fell unconscious again. Miya turned to those 3 wearing black coloured clothes. Her purple eyes traced the three of them before she sighed as she spoke,
"They are hiding their powers as well. Be careful how you deal with them."
The others just nodded at her before the man on the right spoke.
"The girl in the hoodie is mine."
He had a lustful smile on his face as he held his long sword at his shoulders. Wearing a black long jacket over his white T-shirt and black jeans, he just stood there. His spiked hairs made him look like a hooligan, and those golden snake-like eyes and scales on his white face made him look as if he were an animal more than a human.
"Hey! Not fair, you get all the beauties… fine, I will settle with the chainsaw one," spoke the other guy, holding his long scythe. With his blue coloured long hair, he too looked like a hooligan, just a bit more decent than the other one. His square glasses made him look a bit more sophisticated than the other one.
"Then I will take the two guys. Would be a fine addition to my dolls," spoke the girl as she looked at Reeve and George with a sweet smile that sent chills down my spine.
Then the little girl turned around as she looked at the dozen people behind them and said,"you guys can play with the others."
And they started cheering loudly, especially looking at me. Their lustful gazes traced my body as I tightened my grip on my blade.
"Well. I guess that\'s what everyone gets. So, get to work," spoke Miya as she smiled at the others. The others were fine with that, except Walter, who looked really sad for some reason.
"Though Reeve. And George, you too. Be careful, she is… different," Miya spoke as she looked at that girl with a concentrated gaze.
"Sure," George spoke as he moved forwards first, making others follow behind him as well….
