《New Path》Chapter 58 - Here come the real apocalypse
Advertisement
I quickly went upstairs, going to the bathroom washing my face, as I looked myself in the mirror I was surprised to see that the color of my eyes changed slightly from brown to a faint blue but it was so faint that unless someone stuck his face next to me, he wouldn't see the change, seeing Lisa taking her bag as I came out of the bathroom I couldn't help but chuckle, her bag was so big but she lifted it like if it didn't weight at all.
Making me wonder how this small body couldn't lift this bag so easily, the wonder of bloodlines.
sighing at how incredible it was, I also enjoyed the view as her outfit accentuated her curves.
" don't think I can't feel your gaze on me"
but hearing her voice as she turned looking at me as she placed her bag on her back, I didn't try to make an excuse.
" I would be damned by my ancestor, If I don't enjoy the body of my girlfriend "
saying that I passed her feeling like it was the right answer a little embarrassed by my reply as I was so excited that I almost yelled, head high I took my bag near the bed and went out with her closing the door behind us.
" humpph..."
Lisa harrumphed but a small smile appeared on her lips as she heard him calling her, his girlfriend they went so fast as to sleep and even almost doing the deed together, but never tried to talk about their relationship, like if afraid of something, seeing him take the first steps she was genuinely happy her face reddened slightly.
We quickly went downstairs as we sat next to each other in the reception hall Lisa's scent although mixed with blood surprisingly smelled good, or it was just that I was too thirst to not distinguish between what smells good or not.
" Why are they so slow taking a bag and packing it shouldn't take so long should it "
Walking back and forth as I started to feel bored seeing that it was almost five minutes and those guys still didn't come down.
" Why are you even so pressed to go out, I told you to stop your reckless way of trying to play hero by fighting numerous beasts, for now, we only meet beasts at our level, and we could handle them but if we meet those humanoid beasts we fought before, you won't even have the time to regret you already struggled to kill only one of them, next time use your brain and try to buy time while we handle our opponent, if your fear that we would snatch the kill then we can agree to let you the final blow "
Lisa seeing him so impatient warned him trying to reason him giving every kind of idea she had that she knew would make him upset since it was the kind of people he hated the most, he was stubborn and once he has a goal in mind he could quickly forget his surrounding, but this time it wasn't the peaceful earth but a dangerous one where they could die and this guy was eager to go out to fight like in the game he played with Fred.

- " Ok I will try next time, but trust me I'm not enough dumb to keep fighting if my life is threatened "
' It's just that it seems that my bloodline doesn't seem to care about it and react depending on the way I fight '
The last part he kept it for himself since he only felt that way when he fought the dog men, and during this fight, as he was fighting, the slight change of his emotion was like a life-threatening mistake and his bloodline would give him a backslash if he could call it a backslash.
As his blood would flow less fast through his blood vessels as if waiting whether It should keep this intensity of energy and blood flow in his body all over different parts of his body.
during this time upstairs the others were starting to go down too, John and Edward were talking as they went downstairs.
" So what is your plan, you seem to be a nice guy although your character is another thing,... will you stay with us or go elsewhere"
John asked the question he had in his mind for a long time, he know that at some time they would separate but he don't know how many would stay together.
He didn't like the boy but he couldn't deny his capacity when fighting, apart from Chris and the other freak, Like Claire and Lisa he was the only one who never backed down when fighting, to lose him just because of some small dispute would be a stupid thing and right now he was thinking on what to do to keep him with them.
His eyes were looking at his foot as he walked down, as other reasons were in his mind but he decided to let it for later.
" Old man why do you suddenly care so much for me, don't worry for me I know how to work on my own so what, but depending on if I feel like it, maybe!, who knows I will leave, but right now I'm not stupid enough to leave this group "
Edward was taken aback by the sudden way John talked to him most of the time they would only exchange a few words and that would be all and this Old man made him feel uneasy even more the way he just looked at him, he was still aware that he was too weak he asked some questions to his Silver watch while he was in his room, as he used half of his Two thousand Trex earned after they almost die numerous time during their escape from the beast horde.
This watch seemed not useful right now, but he could start to see its potential and if he ever got the chance to gain more Trex he would try to gain more, he decided to keep the lass 1 thousand Trex for later, he was surprised that for each question related to the level or just stat even it was obvious him, cost one hundred Trex making him regret his recklessness as he used the old wold monetization as a reference he knows that one hundred Trex, shouldn't be a low number, as he focused only on what it could be used for.

Asking information about what happened to earth and who were those guys that gave them those watch to only get vague answers making him even more worried as he felt like if his life was between the hand of those guys and that they were toying with them.
But he couldn't do anything about it and only survive and maybe try to get more answers once he get stronger.
- " Ok then..... "
John Nodded as he caressed his unkept barb that appeared after only one week without shaving it properly.
The two conversations stopped just after they came out the staircase entering the hotel hall reception.
everyone was quickly gathered and were ready to go, I looked at them one last time they were some shuddering among them, I wasn't sure if it was excitation or fear but I didn't want to ask.
It's too much work for me.
I'm not forcing them in coming with me, they can stay here if they want it's their choice, I was more surprised that Philip and Eillen keep coming with their Son.
as we came out of the hotel we saw several soldiers running in the street, their heads keeping an eye on the sky for bird attacks, as they advanced leaving the hotel area toward the city center.
The mood around them showing that somethings big would happen.
" what's happening for the military to be so stressed"
Adrien's heart was beating faster seeing the look on those soldiers as some of them were close to them, there were different kinds of emotions showing on their faces, but all of them had one thing in common they had written on them was, fear!!
he was like that just yesterday and today when fighting and could only calm down a little when he felt safe surrounded with the other behind his shield, it was the only things that kept him from running away this and Lisa and Emily support, his mind thinking of different possibilities but came to one conclusion Mutated beasts!.
" Wait I will try to get some information "
He saw Chris running to one soldier and was about to talk to him to try to get some answers on what was going on only to get ignored by the soldier.
He came back with a gloomy face the aura around him was heavy making him step back.
" Chris stop it, you're doing it again, control yourself"
Hector looked at Chris clenching his teeth as his body was trembling the aura around Chris made him feel like he would be killed if he made a slight wrong move.
He looked at Chris his eyes filled with anger it wasn't the first time it happened and this guy still had the same indifferent face, he was grateful to be saved by him but his aura didn't just pressure them but it seemed to attack them mentally too, as they felt like a mere insect in from of him.
And the young boy was starting to get irritated about it as he glanced at Chris in the eye, only to look away the next second.
" Ahh uhh sorry I was lost in my thought, yeah it looks like we will have to change our plan, Sarah, Emily, John, and Edward you guys stay at the hotel with Lester and Adrien group, the other will come with me, unless some people want to stay, say it now we don't have time to waste they seemed urged so we should go quickly check what's happening to prepare on what we will do later the rest of us will follow those soldiers "
My mind was racing like never before thinking of what was happening, I didn't like to have my life in someone else hands, so I want to go check it but Lisa warned me to stop acting solo, so taking some of those guys would be good, at least like that I could see those who aren't to fight even if they don't know what could happen, and once we found a safer place we could distribute our role depending on the way they are acting now.
Chris didn't know but unconsciously his mind was working like a leader thinking on the pro and cons, who to trust his back or not, and he might only figure it out if they survive what was next to come to this peaceful west district.
Everyone had guessed the same thing as Adrien glancing at each other, fear could be seen in their eyes mixed unwillingness as they felt like having a huge weight on their shoulders, they finally got some semblance of routine making them feel like if they weren't in the apocalypse.
Although fighting beasts the height of small houses they started to adapt to this psychological issue as they started to understand how to handle some beasts, they weren't worried about being killed by any random beasts, the fact to no more have rules to control them some of them started to have wild ideas.
Only to be quickly taken down to reality when they saw the scene of those soldiers and hearing Chris question they were thinking whether or not they should come with him.
later only, some of them would learn whether or not it was a good idea to not have come with him, as it would decide their path and what they would be in the future.

Sustaining the King's Life
On a secluded mountain situated upon a kingdom known as Feuersturm, resides a seemingly trifling cabin with an unlikely duo as its inhabitant—a witch, and her apprentice who presumably comes from a clan sought after by slave traders. Faustina is a sixteen-year-old girl who fled the slave market with the help of a sickly witch named Eula, who later on trained her as an apprentice for the span of seven years. Plagued with a mysterious disease for several years, Eula died despite the efforts Faustina had exerted to cure her; in her last breath, she left an odd request behind. "Sustain the king's life. This is your duty. Do not adhere to the prophecy." To which the odd plea shadowed a bizarre series of events, a consequential sentence, similar to that of a premonition. The same night the phrase was muttered, the chain of events followed: A warlock's intrusion to their home, with a peculiar yearning to resurrect Eula from the dead... and the king himself, asking for Faustina’s aid. ** 1-2 chapters a day (GMT+8) ** (The artwork belongs to me.
