BXBX NOVEL Chapter 218
Chapter 218
Myriads of shining stars were strewn about the night sky, sparkling so bright that it was a thrill to watch. The clock had just struck three.
Before he approached the entrance to the Stone territory, Kyon had spent a third of Synergy on keeping his body from destruction. Every second counted!
The guard stopped the late guest.
«Can I see your formation.»
Kyon got off the horse and showed his formation.
«Kyon Stone?! The patriarch’s grandson?!» – The guard sounded surprised. Then his expression grew serious:
«You are under arrest! Patriarch Bai is looking for you. Please, don’t resist and come with me!»
«Shut up!» – Kyon barked imperiously. – «I know that grandfather is looking for me! That’s why I’ve arrived, dumbass! Why else would I be here?! Don’t stand on my way, or you will lose not only your job but also your life! Go back to your station, dog.» – When Kyon finished, he calmly climbed his horse and entered the family territory.
The guard found himself at a loss of words. He was scared and confused. A family member of the first rank was an important person. It’s better to avoid conflict with him! The reason for the search was not mentioned in the report. Therefore, the guard decided not to get involved.
The guards of the second and third posts were also too scared to confront the confident patriarch’s grandson. They let him in without any unnecessary words or actions.
When Kyon entered the central part of the territory, he had only 10% Synergy left. It was too little. He had to use it for the most important task – to protect his memories that his soul was trying to take away.
Kyon reached the elite residential complex, showed his formation at the entrance, imperiously demanded to let him in and got inside. His only hope for salvation was, of course, Juno.
When he climbed the top floor, Kyon felt an abrupt deterioration of his health. He had a sudden heart attack. He was sick and dizzy, the perspiration trickling down his back. A slight tremor ran through his body, and his faltering muscles failed him utterly. He had to hurry up because his body was falling apart faster with each moment. His life was rapidly passing away.
Pale and out of breath, Kyon reached his destination. There was a long corridor ahead… And a turn… And more guards…
Kyon didn’t give in to despair. He dragged his feet on and on, ignoring his blurry vision, poor hearing, numbness all over his body, weakness and other discomforts. He reached the end of the corridor, limping like a ghastly zombie.
The tree Juno’s guards gasped when they saw Kyon suddenly appear around the corner. The root source of all their problems had arrived in person!
«That’s him!»
«Go get him!»
The guards grabbed Kyon by the arms and dragged him outside.
Kyon saw through the dense fog before his eyes the door to Juno’s chambers disappear in the distance. The forces have already left him. He was barely breathing, his heart almost stopped beating. – {I must try… I must… for myself…} – And he cried out with all the remaining strength he had:
«COME OUT!»
«Shut up, asshole!»
«You will wake up the lady, dickhead!» – The senior guard barked and gave Kyon a heavy slap on the head that nearly knocked him off his feet.
In a second, the door to Juno’s room flew open. The golden-haired angry fury appeared in the doorway. Her bare feet were hip-width apart. The young lady was wearing a short pearl gray nightie. Hatred blazed in her evil green eyes. She bared her teeth at him like a wild fox.
Juno would recognize his hateful voice even in her sleep! Rage swept over her, waking her up, and she rushed out at once.
«You filthy beast! How dare you show up here after what you have done?! I WILL KILL YOU!» – She yelled and slammed her fist into his face.
At the moment she touched him, Kyon summoned the rest of Synergy and sent it to the furious girl’s soul…
~whoosh~
A blue flash lit up the entire corridor.
…
Juno opened her eyes. When her vision cleared, she looked around, stunned, almost in a trance. The sun was shining. She saw a distant mountain range strangely shaped. Metallic animals were soaring in the unusually blue sky.
Juno carefully watched them, still in her pretty nightie. Her bare feet stood on a hard surface, the warm breeze playing mischievously with her skirt and hair. Suddenly, she noticed a fanciful playground nearby. There even sand in the sandpit was “solid” like clay.
{Am I still sleeping?..} – Juno thought. She couldn’t think of any other explanation. Everything here was too realistic and bizarre at once… A group of kids was playing in the playground. A chubby lady was sitting beside the children, watching over them. She kept moving her hand as if she was turning pages in an invisible book. Apparently, it was the teacher… Juno had no doubt, she was dreaming!
Suddenly, a big dog ran into the playground, foaming at the mouth. He rushed toward the children, clearly intending to attack them.
The scared kids screamed and dashed to the steel frame to climb up from the dangerous animal. A girl hit a pole and fell, crying loudly.
The chubby lady waved her hand even more vigorously and shouted in a thin piercing voice:
«A wild dog at Neocortex Boulevard, 14! It’s an emergency! The children are in danger!» – She cowardly hid behind a tree, still screaming.
Juno turned ashen with fear when she saw the furry creature. The phobia took over her mind, making her knees tremble. However, when the baby girl started crying, she clenched her hands and thought: – {It’s just a dream… I can do it!} – She rushed forward but stopped again. Her legs seemed to be filled with lead.
The dog had almost reached the target.
Suddenly, a four-year-old boy who was reading a book on the bench dashed to the dog from the back.
Juno decided that the brave kid was unaware of the real danger and reflexively rushed forward to save him. In an instant, she developed tremendous speed and sent the rabid dog flying with a single kick.
The kids gasped with relief. They got off the steel frame and ran to their savior, clapping their hands and shouting with joy.
Juno smiled. – {What a weird dream! I don’t understand their language at all.} – However, she didn’t pay special attention to this. She squatted down and stroked the fearless boy’s thick dark hair. – «What’s your name, brave boy…»
«Lovr.»
They seemed to understand each other well.
«Lovr?» – Juno frowned. Her hateful assistant’s master had the same name. But she decided not to take it serious. It was just a dream, after all. – «You’re a brave boy, Lovr. But you can’t be so reckless. You could get yourself killed.»
«Actually, I had it under control…» – The boy muttered. – «What’s your name?»
The children looked at each other in surprise. Did the smart pants really understand her language?
The teacher came out from behind the tree and headed to them with a wide nervous smile on her round face.
«Juno…»
«You’re so beautiful, Juno. I have never seen anyone so magnificent like you…» – He said sincerely and began unceremoniously touch her soft body here and there as if she was a rare magic toy…
«Stop it!» – Juno pushed him away. – «You can’t touch girls like this. It’s inappropriate…»
«Which version of android are you?» – He suddenly changed the subject, never looking away from her. Lovr was watching her like a connoisseur examining an exquisite and expensive exhibit.
«Android?» – Juno asked him perplexed. – «I am no android…»
«How could you move so quickly, then?..»
The plump woman came up to them, smiling and said something in gibberish.
«It’s a bad dream…» – Juno protested. – «Will you stop touching me! Cheeky rude boy!»
«Your skin is incredibly soft! Can you have sex?»
«How do you even know such words?!»
«You’re almost naked, aren’t you… And so cute… And you smell so good! Let me have a look!» – The smart kid was about to look under her skirt, but something went wrong…
Juno slapped his playful little hand. Then she put the little brat on her knee and spanked his bare ass. – «Bad boy! Don’t ever do this again! Ill-mannered brat!»
«Ouch… It hurts! You’ve been badly programmed, android Juno! You don’t obey the three laws of robotics! You must be upgraded!»
«I will upgrade you now, little bastard!» – Juno was getting furious.
The chubby lady and the kids watched them in silent shock.
From somewhere above, several metal birds on call were arriving at the scene.
All of a sudden, the entire planet froze, plunging into eternal darkness. Absolutely all processes had stopped, including chemical reactions and even electromagnetic radiation.
…
«We have an anomaly in the tenth level subspace. We’ve already taken measures, counselor. The planet has been isolated from the outside world. What do you want us to do, sir?» – The operator in the galactic control center reported.
«Hm… The tenth level… The universe decided to turn upside down…» – He whispered to himself. – «Do the report on the matter activity for the last month. I will deal with it.»
«Copy that.» – The operator said in a measured voice
«Decided to take the most delicious for yourself, Western, buddy?»
«Why are such a meddler, Hubert.» – Western smiled to his friend, who was a hundred thousand light-years away from him. – «It’s perfect timing, though. Set up the masters conference. We must handle this situation carefully.»
…
Lovrl woke up in his bed and rubbed his eyes. – {Huh? What am I doing here? And where’s the beautiful girl?}
He questioned other children and even the teacher, all to no avail. The inhabitants of the orphanage only shook their heads. They had no idea what he was talking about. They had never seen any angry dog or a powerful, beautiful girl.
The boy suspected something was wrong… Something incredible had happened. Nobody remembered anything, and only his memories were preserved! The reddish marks on his ass that the girl had left only confirmed his suspicions.
