BXBX NOVEL Chapter 94: Cockroach
[ Hurray!! Test #2 is successful too, with this we can conclude that just some contact with the flames would be enough to use this ability. ]
' Hmm that's great, let's go out to do some other testing then. ' Lucian thought, he was in a great mood.
Putting the clock back, he opened the door and walked out of there, Lara didn't go back to sleep after returning to her room. Instead, she just decided to start cleaning the house.
So when Lucian came out she was busy cleaning things in the hall, and was still wearing the same nightwear, Lucian walked up to her and spoke:
" Mam, I am leaving, I really enjoyed my sleep here yesterday. " Then before she could say anything he stepped forward and gave her a tight hug, while she just stood frozen in his arms.
After feeling her soft body for a few seconds he pressed his lips against her rosy cheek and gave a soft kiss, and then he let go of her body and moved back.
" Bye, mam. " Lucian said with a smile then he walked out of there, leaving a stunned Lara there.
...
" Zero, do you know of a place where we can find some weapons? " Lucian asked as he walked aimlessly.
[ What kind of weapon do you need? ]
" Is it possible to bring in large bombs? Wait, won't it be much easier to clear a Chasm if we just threw in a nuclear bomb, won't it be much better? " Lucian questioned.
[ No, that is not possible and even the guns that burly man was using was made of the body of creatures from other planets.
And if you wish to get stronger then it would be better to use a weapon that requires skills, unlike a gun or bomb, those things could be used in battles too but skill will grow along with you, unlike those things. ]
" Hmmm that's true, then the weapon I need is... " Lucian paused and after thinking for a few seconds he spoke: "A sword, it is so cool after all. "
[ That's a nice weapon, it would be difficult to get your hands on anything too precious currently but I have a place in mind where you could find just the right things. ]
" Oh where is it-? " Lucian suddenly paused, he was just walking around without thinking, and soon he found himself in a strange area, and just then his gaze landed on two people walking not too far away from him.
" Whoa, I didn't expect to see these two here, the troublemaker duo. " Lucian mumbled as he looked at the two boys who are in Mason's group.
Lucian could remember those two hitting him several times in the past, they even laughed as if they both were enjoying it a lot, they belonged to a rather well off family and the only reason they even went to W.O.T. was to do such things with Mason.
' Should I play with them a little? ' Lucian thought as a smile appeared on his face, he looked around and saw that there were quite a few people around.
So he decided to follow them for a while and act when there won't be anyone around, Lucian wondered where they were even going, laughing and talking as if they were doing another prank on someone.
Soon, they walked towards a place that was filled with a large amount of garbage and no one could be seen as far as the eye could see, the two of them were holding a box each that seemed to be full of cockroaches.
' Just what are they doing in this kind of place? ' Lucian wondered, following behind them silently.
They passed by several large heaps of garbage and after a while they stopped in front of an old broken cupboard, putting the boxes to the side they laughed and spoke:
" Yo little bitch, are you still alive? I brought some food for you. " The 1st boy named Ron spoke, kicking the door of the cupboard.
" He is not making any sounds, don't tell me he really kicked the bucket. Tch tch and here I went through the trouble to collect all these things for you.
Haha, poor bastard, it's been so many days yet not a single person who even noticed his absence. " The 2nd boy named John said, laughing loudly which reverberated all over the landfill.
' These crazy assholes have actually kidnapped a person? I thought they were just kids, they both need to be purged. ' Lucian thought, a serious expression on his face.
" Hey, where did your older brother go? Wasn't he such a famous YouTuber? What was his name again... Jackie or something? " Ron spoke, shaking the cupboard.
Soon light sobs could be heard from inside it, and then the sound of a young boy could be heard from inside the cupboard, as he cried.
" Whoa whoa, this bastard is still alive. Isn't he quite persistent just like a cockroach?
See, since your brother went missing we brought so many of your types to meet you, come on stop crying for hell's sake and say hello.
Hahahahaha " John spoke and both of them laughed at the same time.
The sounds of crying continued to ring out from inside, which only made the two brothers laugh even louder as if to drown the pitiful sound of the kid under their monstrous laugh.
*THUD*
Suddenly they both heard the sound of something falling from behind, they turned around in unison, wondering if someone was around this area.
" Huh? There is no one here. " John spoke.
" Must have been some cat or something. " Ron added, and then they turned back to have some more fun with the little boy.
" Wh- What? Where did it go? "
They both spoke in shock since the broken cupboard had just disappeared from there, in just an instant.
They looked around but it was nowhere to be seen, the heart of the two was beating crazily, this was not something normal after all.
" What the fuck is happening? Wasn't it here just a moment ago? " John muttered as they both moved closer and held hands, looking around nervously.
*STEP* *STEP*
The sound of footsteps from the side almost gave them both heart attacks, they hastily looked towards the place from where they heard the footsteps and saw someone slowly walking towards them.
" L- Lucian? Is that him? " Ron spoke, sticking close to John.
" What the hell? It looks like him, what is he doing here? " John spoke.
" Haa I can't believe we were scared of this bastard, should we give him a long and nice beating? " Ron shouted, as he moved away from his friend, he felt embarrassed that he had just acted like that.
" You little bastard, what are you doing here? Where did that cupboard go? " John said, as they began to walk forward.
