Chapter 109 - The Nearest Exit

Luke had seen many things throughout his life, yet he had never seen a monster that could hide as well in the shadows like the one he killed that night. If it wasn't for the chill he felt, he would never have thought there was anything wrong in the environment.

"It's not safe here, Matt. You're going to have to come with me.... I'll explain everything to you when we're safe."

Matthew merely agreed and stood up. Leaning on the half-wolf's shoulders, they walked through some corridors and even had to hide to avoid being seen by other guards patrolling the tower. 

Apparently, none of them heard the screams of the four guards who were coldly killed by the Ninjas, yet Luke knew that it was still not safe to remain in the hospital.

"Do you know a way out of here?" Matthew asked at one of the times they stopped for him to rest. 

Luke just denied with his head, after all, the only way in and out he knew was the rope and now that it was blown, he knew of no route.

"I was able to walk a few times to recover from my burns, so I know a few exits. If you want, I can take us to them, but I don't know if they will be clear now."

"If they're not, leave the guards to me." The half-wolf spoke, inexpressive, as he snooped around to see if anyone came from the next hallway.

Matthew raised his eyebrows upon hearing his best friend's retort. "Gee, seeing you talk like that...you've changed a bit, Luke. Did you finally get laid for the first time?" He asked with a mischievous grin. 

The half-wolf blushed slightly, grabbed the man's arm tightly, and supported it around his neck. "Shut up and walk. We don't have all the time in the world."

So the pair of thieves walked down some corridors and down some stairs, silently. 

The hospital was a quiet and not very busy place, and the towers, although they had many guards, had almost no doctors or nurses wandering around because the patients of serious cases that needed supervision were in the central tower.

So when they finally managed to get to the base of a tower, they found a door with a direct exit to the outside garden. There was no one protecting it, so all Luke had to do was pick the lock on the door.

As soon as they sneaked out of the property, Luke opened his inventory and pulled out his old para black to cover Matthew. The one-armed man was wearing a typical hospital sweatshirt, which left his butt sticking out.

"Y-you gave in to that, brother?" Matthew questioned as he watched his best friend use a Gene Skill. Yoelona taught them that they should never even consider buying a Gene Skill or a Monster Core because that was sorcery.

"I'll explain later..." Luke replied and closed the <Normal Inventory>. The half-wolf had even forgotten that he once cared about the teachings of his Mistress.

The two men walked for a few minutes until they finally left the Upper Town area and just as Matthew thought about heading towards the Lower Town, he was pulled along by Luke. Without even hearing a word, Matthew knew that Luke already had a place in mind to stay that night.

A few people passed the two of them on the street, which Luke kept an eye out for so as not to be mugged. Oukiwa is a very safe city compared to the other major metropolises of the Broteforge Empire, but the Upper Town is like an alligator tank at night.

When Luke finally managed to find the hotel in which he stayed, he tapped on the glass to get the sleeping doorman's attention. 

"Uhn? Who are you?" The doorman questioned while wiping away the bit of saliva that dripped from the corner of his mouth.

The half-wolf merely showed his copy of the room key, on which there was a keychain hanging that showed the room number.

"You guys are staying in room nine? Oh, all right... I'll get it." So the doorman opened the door and let Matthew and Luke in. As the pair of men started up the stairs, they heard the elderly doorman babble, "These young men these days are looking pretty strange... I think they were in the brothel."

This comment made Matthew laugh, even though he felt a bit of pain doing so. "Haha... You in a brothel? That would be a miracle...you're more innocent than a child." he spoke, as he walked up the stairs.

However, when Luke opened the bedroom door and the light from the bedroom lit up the beds in the room, Matthew saw a beautiful woman sleeping. Alexis was only wearing a skirt, and when Luke realized that half of the half-dragon's ass was showing, he quickly closed the door.

"Y-you..."

"Shut up. She's just a friend." Luke explained himself quickly. 

"The same Luke who used to blush and stutter whenever a woman flirted with him... now he's even sharing a room with a 'friend'? That's not real, is it? Pinch me, go ahead."

Luke looked at Matthew as if his best friend was the dumbest person in the world. He then summoned the Behemoth Axe and spoke: 

"Hold this and stay here. If anything comes up, swing it like you usually do with your knives. I'll explain the situation to her..." 

The half-wolf dropped the axe into Matthew's hand, which was so heavy that when Matthew tried to hold it, he sank to the floor with the weapon.

Luke entered the room reluctantly and trying not to make any noise. Alexis was in a sexy position. Her butt was pert, and her strong arms were hugging a pillow.

Although she was wearing the same clothes she had worn during the day, the red skirt was a little higher and showed much more of her thick legs. Not to mention the vest and her white shirt, whose buttons were unbuttoned and thus her cleavage was much more on display.

The half-wolf took the matchbox that was on the desk beside the woman's bed and lit the chandelier on the wall. The rubbing sound of the matchstick and the faint flame, which blazed across the room, woke Alexis.

"Yawnn!" She yawned loudly. Soon after, Luke felt a tug and by the time he realized it, he was between the half-dragon's arms and breasts. 

"Hey, Alexis... Are you awake or are you faking it?" Luke questioned, suspicious. At that moment, the affectionate squeeze turned out to be a sleeper hold.
