Lucky 194
Calix and the others looked up at the sky and found that a portal appeared. Before they could even speak something, a pink-haired woman jumped out of the flying car and hugged Calix.
"Calix!!"
Calix caught Yuna and chuckled. They were hiding their relationship to Nikki but because of the recent event, Yuna couldn't control her emotions and cried on his chest. She didn't care about Nikki.
'So what if this giant realized that I love Calix, hmmp!' That was probably what Yuna was thinking currently.
"Waaahhh!! Calix!!!"
As expected, Yuna figured out how to use her tears. Calix kissed her forehead to pacify her. He didn't have a choice but to spoil this girl.
'I'm the one who suffered but here I am, pacifying this girl.'
He chuckled. Yuna rubbed her cheek against his chest but someone pulled her out of his embrace. She glared at Marianne, but this Elf won't easily back down.
"Don't try that bitch-act me, it will not work."
Marianne was a bad girl in the first place, if this Yandere wanted a piece of her, so be it. But she had to be prepared to die and be wrapped in ice.
"And, you... Hmmp!! Good thing you're alive."
Anyway, Marianne glanced at Calix then averted her gaze. She didn't want to show that she was relieved to know that Calix was safe. Instead, she scoffed and crossed her arms.
"W- why are you smiling, don't look at me!!"
Calix genuinely smiled and Marianne blushed, she immediately turned away so that her expression couldn't be seen. She didn't want to show her affection. Because she kept saying in herself that her true intention was to seduce Calix and increase her cultivation, nothing else but that.
'Marianne don't be fooled… Calix is nothing but a tool for your greatness… Y- you don't love him! Okay?'
Ah, the art of deceiving one's heart, is truly incredible.
As for Scarlett, the woman took a step and pulled Calix, and stole his lips. She didn't care about the others, this guy was hers.
Besides, she was officially his girlfriend so there was no problem kissing him in the public.
The three people who were affected by that action, were Yuna, Marianne, and Nikki. The three were hurt. Yuna and Marianne wanted to stop them but they know how to control themselves.
As for Nikki, her chest felt constricted, she didn't know why she was having these feelings.
'At that time in the gym…'
Nikki realized that her impression about Calix started back when they met in the gym. He was the only person who didn't show any disgust the first time he met her. That means a lot. Perhaps that was the reason why she was disappointed.
"Oofff off!"
Calix was shocked as Scarlett's tongue invaded him. She attacked him and Calix felt jelly and had fun with her game. They started making out that the three women were mad and jealous.
"Tch!"
Marianne instinctively clicked her tongue. Indeed, she hated Scarlett so much that the idea of Scarlett's death was not bad.
Marianne looked around. Aside from Yuna who kept muttering "kill, kill, kill", Marianne found that there was another person.
'Why is Scarlett's maid here?'
She was confused that this woman who was always holding a bat was on this island. It looked like Athena helped Calix too.
'…'
She observed the woman but Athena didn't flinch. She was good at hiding her emotions.
"Scarlett…"
Calix was panting when their lips parted, he didn't even have the time to react. Unlike the others, Scarlett had this possessiveness that even he had a hard time adapting.
"I'm happy that you're alive."
Scarlett weakly punched his chest. She was holding her tears. She thought she would lose Calix. She was afraid and her hands were trembling.
Calix sadly smiled and hugged her. The last thing he wanted to do was to make her worry. The woman sobbed and hugged him tightly.
"I'm sorry, I promise this will never happen again."
"Un, you better be."
She sniffed as Calix wiped her tears. He was weak against this woman. Maybe he will never win against her. But that didn't matter, because Calix was happy to lose just to see her smile. He's a bastard but he's a good bastard.
"By the way, Calix why are you topless right now and why is Nikki wearing your battle suit?"
After consoling Scarlett, the woman immediately muttered something terrifying. She narrowed her eyes, glinting coldly.
"A- ah. That's because…"
Calix scratched his head and averted his gaze. He didn't know how to explain it. Everything was too fast, he only did the thing that he knew was the right thing to do.
"… And why is Athena here?"
Scarlett turned her eyes towards Athena and the maid fidgeted. She didn't tell her that she was actually investigating Calix. She averted her gaze too.
"Hm... sus."
Scarlett was skeptical, she examined the three who could not look in her eyes. In the end, she sighed and decided to ask them later on. She understood that this was not the time to dilly-dally, especially when a whole company of soldiers arrived.
All of them looked at the incoming boats and flying ships. Scarlett and the others notified the Port of Aoneon that something powerful was living near the island.
The soldiers started doing their job, eradicating the monster to keep the ocean safe. They found some Tiger-Class and two Dragon-Class Aberrants. It was a tough battle but because the Port of Aoneon brought powerful Vindicators the battle ended peacefully on their side.
The army was thankful to them because they informed them about this crucial information. On top of that, their group had been given two weeks of rest.
Marianne and Scarlett met the higher-ups and further explained what they witness. They said that the Umibozos were gathering trees before the island crumbled.
However, when they searched the ocean, they could not find any clues, which added another mystery.
'A Demon-God is living close to the Port and no one even knows about it…'
Athena was biting her nail. She was anxious, but not because of that. She was anxious that her Lady might be angry again.
Athena glared at Calix and the man anxiously smiled too. He had a lot of things to explain later on.
