Chapter 108: Love is Pain
Kinky, Miles commented as he looked at the unfamiliar woman on top of him.
Miles Cross, finally where I want you to be, Renen said without any emotion on her face.
I presume the candles are sedative.
They are. You cannot use your muscles now. Renen answered as she formed two leaf blades in each hand.
Why? Miles asked, not flustered at all.
You are not shocked or scared at all. How interesting.
If it was a few days ago, I might have. But not long ago, I used my first Mind Serum, and my mind is working much better. I felt something was off.
Gotta admit I wasnt expecting this when I first stepped into the room otherwise I wouldnt be caught of course. Miles grinned.
But it all clicked when you cuffed me. All the meetings, dates, and your shy acting. They were perfect, but I felt that itch. Alas, I couldnt find it before it was too late.
Yeah. Now you answer. She said as he brought one of the blades near his cheek. Do you remember the green-haired girl you hunted with?
Miles suddenly opened her eyes to the limit. So that is how it is.
Seems like you do, Renen said with hatred oozing from her eyes. What happened to her?
What do you think? Miles asked while buying some time. He couldnt feel his strength at all.
She is dead, I know it. Renen cried while making a cut on Miles's cheek, Tell me what happened.
You really have a friend in Aomine Stronghold and saw her leaving with me and a bunch of others. But probably only recognized me right? Miles asked.
Yeah, why.
The one who hired her and me was Tian Ling, grandson of the General, Miles said.
What? My friend would recognize that bastard. She said she only saw you. Renen said in anger.
I dont know what your friend saw, but it is the truth. Miles continued, We were forced to lure monsters in a river. She was with me and I wanted to help them, but she wouldnt listen. She wanted to abide by Tian Lings order and prayed for survival.
When the monster attacked, I ditched them and survived, while they didnt.
And because of this, I carried this orb with me. Miles answered and shouted, Coin, you can come in.
The door opened and Coin floated into the room. It looked comical so he couldnt help but ask. What happened?
She was trying to kill me. Find the antidote and free me please, Miles answered. She was still stunned, but it wouldnt last long. Coin looked around and finally found the antidote in one of the closets. Miles let the armor open a little, while Coin injected it into his system.
Miles broke free of the cuffs and tied the girl instead. What should I do now?
What do you want to do? Coin asked.
She wanted to kill me, so the answer is obvious, but I cant do it without leaving a trace. Miles shook his head.
We should call him.
Hmm. Miles nodded and Coin called.
Miles? A Voice asked.
Uncle Serzen, I need your help. Miles sighed as he explained.
Alright, my team will be there, leave and go somewhere people can see you, Serzen answered.
No question asked, Uncle. Miles reminded.
Of course, I will make sure nothing comes out of it. After he got the confirmation, he walked to the stunned girl.
I am sorry, but this was your choice. Miles kissed the girl on her forehead and knocked her out before tying her up. With it, he left the house for the City Center.
Did you take care of her AI?
Taken care of. Coin affirmed. She will show up in different places around the capital, then will leave for Portal World.
My trace?
All deleted. And added a safety precaution too.
Good. Uncle Serzen can take care of the rest.
What now? Cold shower again? Coin asked.
Cold shower it is, buddy. Miles sighed.
