Chapter 190

Lucky 190

Over a decade ago. 

Sergeant Romoel grunted as he came out of the mountains of dead aberrants over him. He has wounds and bruises around his body. He looked at his left side and confirmed that he had broken ribs. He frowned. 

"If I know, I should have prepared at least two battle suits."

He muttered while in pain. A battle suit needed a change of battery and they were quite big to have around. 

"Well, holding two suitcases of the battle suit is detrimental too, I guess."

He took a deep breath.

It was an endless battle. Andreas didn't even know how long the battle went on. All he remembered was that monsters kept showing and he was swinging his arms, tearing them apart. It was gruesome and brutal, his battle suit even lost its power in the middle of the fight. It was good that he had a tough defense. 

"However…"

Andreas glanced at the sky. He was looking at the huge red tree that was slowly crumbling. 

"… Vampire."

The tree was made of blood, and inside of the blood tree, there was…

………  

……  

…

"Hah!"

Nikki gasped for air. She coughed the water out of her throat and started puffing. She felt that she was dying. 

Her vision slowly gained its clearance and she started looking around. She was mortified and struggling. She raised her head and found that she was still in the middle of the ocean, where the endless water was surrounding her. But thankfully, her feet were on a small scale of land. 

"Uck!"

She spat a mouthful of water. Drowning was the last thing she wanted to experience. 

"So you're awake."

"!!!"

Nikki turned around and found that Calix was standing, carrying a heavy machine gun. He was topless and sweat covered him, however, his skin didn't have any bruises or stains. 

"What happened?"

Nikki's voice was much weaker compared to normal, probably because she lost her energy, but thankfully Calix could hear her clearly. Maybe the adrenaline rush was kicking in and his sense of hearing was maxed. 

"We fell to the water and I saved you."

"T- thanks."

"You're welcome."

Calix replied while swinging his gun around. 

Support me using Power Stones in Webnovel or visit my Patre(on)!!

Nikki recalled what happened before she lost consciousness. She was crying for help as Umibozos surrounded her. 

"Did something happen while I'm sleeping?"

She asked while rubbing her eyes, trying to make sure that what she was seeing was real. 

"Nothing much."

She sighed in relief. She found that she was only wearing her crop top and short shorts, but she didn't think much of it. 

'Calix take them off so that it will not be heavy to carry me. After all, I'm already heavy and big.'

Perhaps Calix took her clothes so that CPR would be easier. 

"CPR… CPR!!??"

She was dumbfounded and glanced at Calix. 

'D- did he kiss me?'

She was shocked, her heart was beating faster. The idea of their lips touching was making her conscious. She lightly tapped her cheeks. 

"U- um, CPR… Did you…"

She couldn't say it. She was embarrassed. 

"CPR? Yeah… I did."

Calix answered although there was something strange about how he said it. He couldn't even look at Nikki. As if he made a mistake. 

"Oh by the way."

Calix kicked the golden hammer towards Nikki. He didn't want to touch the hammer because it was always cussing at him. So he decided to kick it towards Nikki. 

"Corco!"

Nikki was delighted. She thought she lost Corco when they fell. She was thankful that Calix was there for her. 

"Thank you."

"No problem."

Calix answered. To be fair, he felt guilty that Nikki was thanking him even after what he did. He couldn't look at her innocent eyes. 

He couldn't say that he groped her boobs and massaged them thoroughly while… Ehem!

Nikki stood up and regained her strength. She didn't know why but she felt refreshed and new. She has not paralyzed anymore and she could move well. 

However just as she regained her focus, something amazing caught her eyes. 

"Calix, did you do this?"

She was shocked. Her eyes were trembling while looking at the dead bodies around them, they numbered 500 dead bodies at most. Calix killed them based on the bullet holes in their bodies. 

They were standing in the sole floating piece of the island. It was fortunate that this piece of land was still floating, or else they would have to stay in the water. Well, Calix could move freely in the water but Nikki couldn't do it. 

After all, Calix could breathe in the water even do he didn't have gills. 

'It's confirmed. I have the blood of a mermaid, or perhaps some aquatic demihumans… That's the only idea I can think of.'

It was the reason why he easily defeated the Umibozos even though they were swimming fast in the water. 

"I see, thank you for saving me. But, Calix, I just want to make sure. Did you do this?"

Her voice was trembling as she asked. She looked around and swallowed the saliva stuck in her throat. She witnessed something impossible. 

"... Yeah, but you have to keep it a secret."

"I will."

She nodded. 

Killing hundreds of monsters may look normal, but what if 1/3 of the monsters were 3rd-Class Aberrants? Then, that was amazing. 

'Scarlett Robinson and Marianne Francine, they are the only people who can defeat a 3rd-Class despite being not being a 2nd Advanced, but Calix is different...'

Nikki glanced at the heavy machine gun that he was carrying. Nikki was completely sure that it was a handgun the last time she saw it. 

'I've never seen an Infinite Bullet Gun than can transform into a different gun. Is this a new weapon from the Cudgel Tech?'

She was not sure. But she understood that Calix's weapon was the main reason why he could kill hundreds of monsters. The important thing was that Calix was not even wounded. 

She looked at his chiseled body. She didn't know why her belly was burning right now. As if she wanted something, or perhaps she already have it. 

She shook her head. She didn't want to do something stupid. 

"Nikki, I know that you just woke up, but I want you to be prepared. This bastard is coming."

"Huh?"

Calix transformed his machine gun into an electric harpoon. He wanted to fry this giant octopus!!
