BXBX NOVEL Chapter 92 92: She Knows
"They're in front of this door.
Do you want to go in alone?"
Ashley's voice resounded as she stood in front a door with Corey by her side.
Corey looked at the door with his heart beating slightly faster than usual and without replying Ashley, he walked towards the door, opened the door then entered.
Ashley's lips twitched slightly and without saying a word, she walked to the wall beside the door and stood with her back against the wall and her arms crossed.
Meanwhile Corey after entering the room which was like a storage room saw two bodies which were in open body bags.
"Mom, Dad."
Corey mumbled seeing the two body bags.
He stayed rooted in the same spot for at least ten seconds without making a single sound.
He just kept on looking and after some seconds passed, he finally walked to the body bags.
He looked at the closed eyes and peaceful faces of both his mom and dad for a few seconds before his eyes moved down to the other parts of their body.
But just as his eyes moved down, his eyes landed on their necks and he stopped.
He narrowed his eyes and his eyes became slightly colder when he saw the crushed necks of his parents.
He clenched fists subconsciously as he could imagine the painful and traumatic way his parents died, and the worst part of it was that there was a high chance that Anna probably saw the way they died.
Just the thought of it made his blood boil and his clenched fists to tighten.
"I'm sorry Mom and Dad for been weak.
I'm sorry for failing to protect Anna.
I've sorry for been a failure of a child.
No matter what, I'll bring back Anna and let her watch the temple of flames burn in flames.
There would be no temple of flames in the future.
So please, forgive me for my weakness and I pray your souls rest in peace."
Corey spoke with a low and soft voice, then he released a soft sigh after speaking.
He crouched and then he touched the bodies of his parents, and a second later, he poured mana into the spatial ring on his finger and placed the bodies in his ring.
After the bodies disappeared, Corey crouched while looking at the previous spot of their bodies with a vacant expression in his eyes.
A few seconds later, he sighed once again then stood and walked out of the room.
"Are you okay?"
Just as he walked out of the room, he heard Ashley's voice and he turned towards her.
"I'm okay, thanks for asking."
He replied with an indifferent tone and Ashley unfolded her arms. A conflicted expression appeared in her eyes for a few seconds before she sighed then spoke:
"I need to tell you something."
Corey raised both eyebrows hearing Ashley's words and seeing her conflicted expression.
"What is it?"
He asked calmly and Ashley had a slightly nervous expression.
"Alright, so don't do anything irrational and don't be angry when I tell you."
She spoke with a slightly worried tone and expression, meanwhile Corey was beginning to get irritated and annoyed.
"Just say it, we don't have all day."
His irritation and annoyance could clearly be heard in his tone causing Ashley to tighten her lips slightly.
"Becca heard all that we said in the room."
"Hmm? I don't get."
Hearing her words, Corey was confused and his confusion showed in his tone.
"Becca was at the door when we had that argument about you killing her.
When I left the room, I saw her sitting on the door with her hands and face on her knees."
"..."
Corey's head tilted to the right hearing the words of Ashley and a 'wtf' expression on could be seen on his face for three seconds.
"What did you do to her?"
He asked with a calm tone and an uncomfortable expression appeared on Ashley's face.
"We just talked, but don't worry, I have everything under control."
Ashley at first started with a soft and slightly unconfident tone but as she said her last words, the confidence in her tone increased.
"I don't care what your plan is, just make sure she doesn't know where I'm going.
Just know that if she dares to harm me in the future, she's dead.
Right now, she's your problem, not mine."
Corey spoke nonchalantly, and after speaking, he walked away.
But just as he took a few steps, Ashley spoke softly:
"Are you leaving now?"
Corey paused and two seconds later, he replied:
"Yes, I'm finally leaving."
Ashley bit her lip softly and then she spoke:
"Make sure you stay safe and you don't die."
She said and Corey without saying anything continued walking but after taking a few steps, he stopped.
"Oh yeah. If any stranger comes and asks you for my location, don't fight them and tell them my location."
Without looking back and with a calm tone, Corey spoke, but his words confused Ashley.
"Why?"
She asked because, although, her doing that would make it safer for her and her group in case somebody strong or a group came to her place looking for Corey, it would definitely make it more dangerous for Corey.
"I need bird food and I hope I can get a lot before I reach the black sea."
Corey spoke with an indifferent tone, meanwhile Ashley was confused by his words.
"What do you mean?"
She asked but Corey did not bother explaining and just walked away.
Ashley seeing Corey's disappearing back had a complex emotion in her eyes before she sighed wistfully and then walked to her room.
----
(Some Hours Later)
With his black hood covering his head and Rhea on his left shoulder, Corey who was at first looking at the ground, looked up and a strange glint appeared in his eyes as he looked at a building which was extremely unfamiliar but in an extremely familiar place.
With complicated expression, Corey exhaled softly then walked towards the mansion which was his family's home due to his mother's wish.
