BXBX NOVEL Chapter 299 Commander Lolan
"Waaaaaaaah! You stink a lot!" Stella bursts out in a loud voice, covering her nose.
"Man, you truly reek," I add, unable to hold back my laughter, which only irritates Arthur further.
"Kyu~ (Papa, he smells like shit)," Gogo adds, making Arthur clench his teeth in annoyance.
"Fuck it! You too, Gogo? Alright, I am going to take the biggest share since I did all the work," Arthur says, a triumphant smile spreading across his face. In the next moment, a burst of aura envelops him from top to bottom, and the stench emanating from him disappears as if it never existed.
"Gogo, go and consume the crystals," I instruct Gogo, but before he can react, I stop myself as I hear a cacophony of footsteps approaching us. I look up and see a group of people with strange physiques standing in front of us. They appear to be soldiers of some sort, and they are heavily armed.
Instinctively, I place my hand on the hilt of Excalibur, ready for any threat that might come our way. Stella and Arthur also prepare for action, their eyes narrowing in suspicion.
As I look at the soldiers in front of us, I can\'t help but be taken aback by their appearance. They have a humanoid figure, similar to a monkey, however, they are very tall and muscular with only their faces having facial hair and thick curved eyebrows along with different types of haircut. Heck, some of them are very good-looking and don\'t have any facial hair. The only thing they all have in common is the tails sprouting from their behinds.
"Who are you? State your reasons for being here!" One of the soldiers bellows, walking forward with a strange gun pointed at me. The gun looks unlike anything I\'ve seen before.
[That\'s a Ki gun]
Mimi\'s voice suddenly echoes in my head.
[Be careful, Master. It packs a punch.]
[Sorry for ignoring you earlier because I was resting inside your head, Master. By the way, I think you should pay attention to them. That gun hurts more than you think.]
I take a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves. These soldiers seem on edge, and any wrong move could trigger an unnecessary conflict. I need to handle this situation delicately.
In the next moment, I walk forward with my hands raised in the air, approaching the soldier who seems to be their leader. He sports a thick brown facial hair, with crumbs of food oddly clinging to it.
"I am Prince Jake from the vampire planet," I say, presenting my identity card.
The soldiers freeze, their eyes widening in shock. It appears they have heard about the tournament that took place on our planet and have learned about me through various channels.
Their leader lowers his gun and his expression softens. "Nice to meet you, Prince Jake. I am Commander Lolan, and I have heard a lot about you through the news, and it\'s a pleasure to meet one of the strongest vampires in person. I guess you must have slain all those beasts," he says with a stoic demeanor.
"Well, I didn\'t, he did," I say, pointing towards Arthur. I want to give credit where it\'s due and not take the limelight for his impressive kills.
Commander Lolan\'s eyes shift towards Arthur, and suddenly, they widen in shock. "Y-You!!! W-What are you doing here?!!" he stammers, his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.
"Fufu, I\'m not here to beat you up, Commander. No need to worry about taking a beating," Arthur says with an evil smile, walking forward to stand beside me.
"Sigh. Today has been such a bad day for me," Commander Lolan mutters, stroking his dirty beard.
"By the way, what are you doing here?" he asks, his expression turning serious.
"Well, as you can see, the prince is the rightful owner of the sword I came here to claim the other time. He said there are also other ancient vampire artifacts with the celestial monkey race," Arthur answers on my behalf, and I nod in agreement.
"Ah, again. But you came at the wrong time because the Celestial Monkey race is also hosting our planet\'s strongest tournament. Knowing the upper echelons, they might have some sort of underhanded tactics. At least, you remember what they did to you," Commander Lolan says with worry etched onto his face, glancing at Arthur.
Arthur lets out a sigh. "We are well aware that the upper echelons might try some underhanded tactics. But you don\'t have to worry about us," I interject.
"Prince Jake, I understand that you are very strong, but I think you shouldn\'t underestimate the power of the Celestial Monkey race," Commander Lolan says, still sounding concerned.
"I have decided. Besides, there have been reports about corruption in the ranks of the Celestial Monkey race. As the race that holds and secures artifacts or weapons that may pose danger to this world, it\'s a shame that corruption is seeping into their ranks," I say firmly, not wavering in my decision.
Commander Lolan looks at me for a few moments before nodding his head. "Very well, I\'ll allow you entry into our land. Moreover, it\'s forbidden to hunt beasts on the Celestial Monkey planet. However, there has been a horde of beasts recently attacking nearby villages, and it seems like your teammates have taken care of them. You can keep the crystals as a reward," he says, offering a slight bow.
"Thank you, Commander. However, before we follow you, there\'s still one thing I want to do..." I say, turning to Gogo, who is sitting on my shoulder.
"Gogo, I think it\'s time to eat those flesh you\'ve been craving for," I tell him.
"Kyu~" Gogo responds with a happy expression, his antennas bobbing up and down in excitement.
