Although He knew that Rina's dog had evolved into a monster whose strength reached Tier E, he didn't think that Delmor would bring Rina outside.
'Perhaps... only Rina can control that dog, that's why Delmor brought her along.'
Hikaru thought to himself.
After all, in the novel, Rina was protected by Delmor like a princess in a steel castle.
As long as Rina needed something, Delmor would help her get what she wanted. As long as she stayed in the castle built by Delmor, and she didn't go out much, she wouldn't face much danger.
However, in the novel, even though Rina usually didn't go out, she still caused a lot of trouble and gave Delmor a headache.
Anytime she comes out of the castle, she becomes a troublesome production machine that angers the readers.
Hikaru said: "Let's go, we must have been discovered by that dog, there's no point in hiding."
Laylah nodded at that, and the two of them came out of their hiding place.
In the distance, Rina's dog Alec smelled something and immediately barked loudly.
Woof! Woof!
Although its body resembled a wolf, it still barked like a dog.
Rina immediately looked at what the dog was barking at, and she saw a man and a woman walking towards this direction.
Delmor and Akiko had just got out of the car, and upon hearing the barking they were also a bit surprised.CHeCk for new stories on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m
However, now that they had Alec by their side, they weren't too scared. Delmor and Akiko also looked into the distance, and they immediately saw two people that they couldn't forget their faces.
Laylah and Hikaru.
"Hikaru?" Delmor frowned, feeling confused. It must be known that Hikaru's mansion was more than 5 kilometers from here, and in his mansion there were also many supplies and resources, so he wondered why he came to this place?
'Could it be... he intends to gather supplies here?'
Delmor turned his head to look at the convenience store, and he became a little anxious as he thought of the many possible scenarios.
'If he wants to get supplies here, should I stop him or give up on this place?'
Delmor suddenly glanced at Rina and Alec, he thought of something again, and immediately said to Rina: "Rina, Hikaru is coming. Maybe he intends to gather supplies in this place, please stop him so we can have time to collect everything."
Hearing that, Rina confidently nodded and said: "Don't worry, I will make him regret it. I was still wondering where he was, I didn't think that he would take the initiative to find me."
"Alec, go ahead!"
Rina rode Alec, and immediately ran towards Hikaru and Laylah.
Akiko, who was startled by everything going on, immediately shouted: "Delmor, are you crazy? Why are you allowing Rina to face Hikaru?"
"No problem." Delmor smiled and said, "Rina used to be someone Hikaru liked. Even though he gave up on Rina, he definitely won't hurt her."
"Besides... Rina also has Alec to protect her, and next to Hikaru is Laylah, do you think that Laylah will let Hikaru harm other people?"
Akiko felt that this was reasonable. She looked towards Laylah, as she wanted to talk to her.
Akiko wanted to ask Laylah why she was following Hikaru, did she really love him?
Suddenly, Delmor put his hand on Akiko's shoulder and said, "Don't! We have more important work to do. There will be many more opportunities in the future, I know where they live, it's only about 10 kilometers from us."
Akiko nodded slightly after she heard that, yes, they needed to gather supplies for the 20 people who were suffering from hunger in the abandoned mansion.
He and Akiko immediately rushed inside the convenience store.
Akiko frowned upon hearing that, she rested her hand on her hip but she forgot she didn't have a gun.
Yes, her gun was confiscated by Mojure, by the time the apocalypse hit, it had been forgotten.
Delmor also felt a little scared now. In the apocalypse, the only weapons he had were a metal baseball bat and a knife.
Faced with Hikaru's gun, he was completely defenseless.
He didn't even think that Alec could defeat Hikaru while he was holding a gun.
Delmor stepped forward, blocking Alec and Rina: "Hikaru, what are you going to do?"
Hikaru smiled: "Collect supplies of course."
"But... you have already stocked up a lot of supplies, why are you still competing with me?"
"Competing with you?" Hikaru felt amused: "Hahaha... Delmor, what you said was funny. Am I competing with you?"
"Hahaha... Delmor, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. If you want to get supplies inside that shop, you can exchange them for something of equal value."
"Exchange?!" Delmor was a little confused and asked: "What do you need? I don't have anything of value. I have no money, no food."
Hikaru shook his head and said, "You think I need those? What I need is... energy crystals, or your crafting."
"What?! You..." Delmor was startled when he heard that, he stammered due to the fact that he was lost for words.
'Why... Why does he know that I have the ability to craft items? Could it be... he knows he owns the encyclopedia?'
'Impossible! I never talked about this, no one knows about it but myself.'
'But... why does he know that?'
'Could it be... he can read my mind?'
Akiko frowned, she glanced at Delmor's expression that was now the same as Rina's.
She didn't understand what Delmor's Craft was, but... what she cared about was Laylah.
"Laylah..." Akiko spoke up: "Why... are you pointing your weapon at me?"
Laylah calmly looked at Akiko, she lightly shrugged and said, "Akiko, sorry, I was just following orders."
"Orders? Hikaru ordered you?" Akiko startled and asked, "What did he do to you?"
Laylah suddenly sighed, her face was full of sadness, her eyes were a little wet: "You don't understand what I'm going through."
Hikaru : (; ̄Д ̄) " ..."
Akiko saw Laylah's expression, and immediately felt more worried: "What did he do? Laylah, tell me! If you need help, tell me. I... I will help you."
Laylah shook her head and sighed, "Akiko, you can't help me. You are just an ordinary person, and he is a monster, he will easily crush you."
"Akiko, don't worry about me. I can bear it, you and the others run."
"But..." Akiko was about to cry too, her eyes were wet, tears welled up in her eyes as she said: "Hikaru, are you still human? What have you done to Laylah? She loves you, she even saved your name in her phone book as 'First Kiss', so why are you doing this to her."
Hikaru : (; ̄Д ̄) " ..."
"Akiko, stop talking!" Laylah shouted, she pointed her bow at Akiko, using a very pained tone she shouted: "Go! I don't want to point a weapon at you. I can bear it, if you become stronger later on, come back and save me."
"Laylah!!!" Akiko shouted in despair.
Hikaru: (; ̄Д ̄) "..."
