Chapter 146: Breakfast With Everyone

Arthur dodged by a hair's breadth.

He looked towards Amelia while rolling away in panic.

"Senior, you said it would've been fine if we entered his room! It doesn't look fine to me!

"He is seriously trying to kill me!"

Before anyone could react, a heavy aura of Death and Darkness descended.

They felt suffocated.

Even Amelia froze.

Condensed red arcs of lightning gathered around Neo.

"He is going to destroy this place."

Arthur closed his eyes as if he had given up.

Neo was about to unleash the storm of Death when suddenly Jack grabbed his hand.

"Stop this, Neo. We aren't hallucinations."

Jack's aura clashed against Neo's aura.

Neo was slightly surprised when Jack managed to hold him back.

'Even if I'm not using my full strength how can he do this?'

'He must've trained a lot while I was away.'

Neo retracted his aura.

"My bad, I thought it was another hallucination created by the Darkness."

"Haaaah…"

Jack let go of his hand and flopped to the ground.

"I felt like I was going to be killed. How the hell did your aura grow so strong in just three months?

"Where the hell were you doing?"

"I was receiving my answer from the vision."

"Yeah, yeah, please keep using that discounted excuse.

"Even Nathan can make up better lies."

"Uhm, why am I being insulted when I didn't say a word…"

Nathan closed his mouth when everyone turned to him.

"Never mind, please ignore me."

Neo sat up on the sofa.

"What are you guys doing here?"

"We wanted to know about your mission. How was it? Did you really go outside the academy?"

"I've said it already. I was with the Sphinx."

"So you really won't tell us."

Jack clicked his tongue.

He sat near Felix who was on top of Mars.

"What can we do? We are too low ranked for him to think about us.

"I bet he made more friends when he was outside, and he is just using us as his side-friends." Felix let out fake tears.

Neo ignored the two drama-queens.

He snorted.

"You guys entered my room without my permission. Ever heard about the magical word 'privacy'?"

"Of course we have."

Felix spoke first.

Jack followed after him.

"That's why he did not enter your bedroom. We only used your console, kitchen, hall, training room…."

Jack stopped speaking.

He looked away.

"You can say sorry."

"Sorry."

Nathan brought breakfast from the kitchen.

He flinched when Neo looked at him when in truth Neo was looking past him.

"Amelia, come out. I already saw you in the kitchen."

She dragged her feet out of the kitchen.

Neo clicked his tongue.

Although he wanted to say something, he didn't plan to embarrass her in front of everyone.

"I know I gave you the keys, but at least warn me if you are going to bring a party with you."

"Huh, you did not—"

"I did, Amelia. How else you would have keys to my room?

"Hahaha, it's not like the academy staff will them to you."

Felix and Jack's stares stung at his back.

Neo continued his act shamelessly.

"Anyway, tell if you guys are going to come. I would've prepared something for you all."

'Like changing the lock.'

The group sat around the table.

They kept asking Neo about his mission even after he said he was with the Sphinx.

Irritated, he almost flipped the table and shot a Death Snipe at them.

The tasty food was the only reason he forgave everyone.

"Nathan, you cooked the food, right?"

"Y-yes, Senior Amelia helped too."

"She has a key to my room already."

Neo continued.

"Your room wouldn't have a kitchen.

"You can use mine when you don't want to eat the cafeteria's food. I'll give you a key to my room."

"What about me?"

"Me too!"

Neo ignored Jack and Felix, and stared at Mars.

"I'll give you a key too. My training room should've better than yours. You can use it."

"Thanks."

"If you are thankful, don't go around my place naked, dripping sweat on mats."

"Hahaha, sorry about that."

Arthur was staring at Neo like a child waiting for his santa claus.

"What?"

"Do I get a key too?"

"Fuck off."

"Why?! You gave one to Mars!"

Neo looked at him with disgust.

"Are you my teammate?"

"No?"

"Can you cook food for me?"

"I can—"

"Can you cook 'tasty' food like Nathan?"

"…I can try."

"Are you a beautiful girl?"

"…"

"Three questions, three times useless. You are rejected. I have no reason to invite you to my room."

Arthur gave an awkward smile.

"Hey, you weren't this sharp tongued before."

"Well, I'm not the one who entered someone's room without their permission."

Arthur looked as if he had been wronged.

He was the only person to get attacked and he was the only one to be insulted.

Neo sighed.

"Fine, I'll give you a key. Stop making that face. It's disgusting."

Before Jack and Felix could speak up, Neo added,

"You I'll give you two too."

'Of course, I'll change the lock after I distribute the keys.'

'I'll give the real keys to only Mars and Nathan.'

After the rowdy breakfast, they prepared to go to the classes.

"Nathan, I want to talk to you. Come to the side."

Nathan nodded.

He was about to step towards Neo when suddenly Jack placed a hand on his shoulder.

Jack whispered something to Nathan.

Nathan nodded and left with everyone.

"What did you say to him?"

"I told him you were probably asking for the corpses. Since I have them, he can go."

"You took them?"

"Yeah, I had to. Nathan became a nervous wreck while carrying those things. seaʀᴄh thё nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"So I decided to take them from him."

Jack's shadow stretched.

The corpses of Christian, Leonora, Clara, Kendrick and Gwen floated at its surface.

Neo's expression worsened.

He could stomach the pungent smell and the gory scene before his eyes.

However…

"They are rotting."

Neo had expected this.

He felt like shit when he witnessed his failures with his eyes.

"Fuck."

While Neo was thinking hard, Jack opened his mouth,

"You want to resurrect them, don't you?"
