Ch: 161 [Johnny Quick]

Ch: 161 [Johnny Quick]

Christie's words sent a jolt of anticipation through me, and I couldn't help but feel a surge of desire in response to her seductive proposition. But beneath the allure, I couldn't forget the danger that accompanied her sadistic tendencies.

"Careful, now," I cautioned, my voice laced with a hint of warning. "You might regret what you ask for."

"Then, why don't you make me regret?" Christie takes off her black jacket, revealing her exposed breasts. Her nipples were already stiffened into hard points, and they seemed to stand out on her ample mounds, beckoning me to suck them.

The sight of her perfect body sent an electric current straight through me, and I was overwhelmed by a powerful desire to take control. However, before we could continue, a flash of green light appeared on the balcony. It was Laira. The green lantern energy surrounded her entire body, making it glow slightly as she levitated down from the roof. She touched down lightly on the balcony, then turned toward us with a slight smirk on her face.

"I see you two are enjoying each other's company," she said in a smooth tone that made my hairs stand up on end. "How many girls did you seduced, Alex?" Her purplish skin and pointy ears gave her a fae-like appearance, but there was nothing innocent about her mischievous grin.

"Laira..." I started to say something, "It's been a while, huh?"

"Yeah, is your mother home?" She asked.

"Nope, no idea where she is," I replied.

"I see," She summoned a familiar white box from her ring.

"You are still holding on to that thing?" I asked with a curious tone. I don't want to get involved in some intergalactic shit.

Christie wore her jacket back and sat on the bed with crossed legs. Her eyes were on the box in Laira's hand. Laira's eyes went toward Christie.

"Don't worry about her," I continued, "She is a friend."

"Oa isn't safe anymore. The Guardians pointed me your way," Laira replied as she extended the box toward me."

"Oh, nope. That's not going to happen. I don't want to get involved in your Guardians' shit or whatever that is. I have enough problems of my own. Besides, that thing is a danger beacon that attracts danger... Why the fuck would I put my family in danger?" I shot down her offer without even reading it.

"But-" Before she could speak, I interrupted.

"The other lanterns are after it, probably other enemies too..." I said. I remember seeing it on the news about his death. It was around the same time I met Laira and this box. And she also mentioned being attacked by other lanterns. This is a big jumbo shit, which might be better to just avoid it.Alll latest novels at novelhall.com

Laira didn't answer.

"Haaa. That's why I have been looking for your mother, but she is a hard person to find," She exclaimed, frustration evident in her voice.

"Well, good luck with that," I replied dismissively. "I'm not interested in being a part of whatever intergalactic drama you have going on. And I would appreciate it if you didn't involve my family. Those Guardians or whatever they are, go to them and slam that box on their table. Your job will be completed. Let them deal with their own shit. Let them fight, kill each other for all I care."

A System notification window appeared before my eyes.

Ah! A speedster entered my domain. It looks like he followed Laira here.

"Yeah, all thanks to you..." I raised my aura barrier, surrounding the area around my house. Luckily, this house is on a quieter corner of the island, so causing some commotion won't matter. But Jenny and Hina are there sleeping. I have to kill this bastard fast before he gets the chance to react.

Considering the possibilities, his target is this box in Laira's hand. He will try to snatch it right before our eyes, and probably try to kill her.

Ah! Here he is.

*Dracul: Heightened Senses + Shadow Dasher*

As I activated my heightened senses and Shadow Dasher ability, time seemed to slow down around me. I could see the speedster, Jonathan Chambers, approaching with lightning-fast speed, his movements blurred to the naked eye. But with my enhanced perception, I could track his every move. Arcs of lightning crackled around his red suit. He looks just like the Flash.

I swiftly moved into action, my body moving faster than ever before thanks to my Shadow Dasher ability. I anticipated Jonathan's every move as he dashed towards us, his speed almost unfathomable. With each step, he left behind a trail of crackling lightning.

*Immense Strength*

In an instant, I grabbed his throat and wrapped my red aura around his body, and pulled him up in the air, "Yo! Didn't your parents teach you to knock before entering someone's room?"

Jonathan Chambers struggled against my grip, his eyes widening in surprise and alarm. The speedster's attempts to break free were futile, as my enhanced strength and aura held him firmly in place.

"Who... who are you?" he managed to gasp out, his voice strained.

"Names aren't really important right now," I replied, my voice dripping with a mix of amusement and threat. "What matters is that you're trespassing on my territory and making a move on something that doesn't belong to you."

Jonathan's eyes darted between me, Laira, and the white box she held in her hand. The realization of the situation seemed to dawn on him, but his expression didn't change. A creepy smile crept across his face, and he chuckled softly.

"Well, well, well," he said, his voice laced with arrogance. "Looks like we've got ourselves a little guardian here, huh? You are a speedster too, huh? You think you can stop me?"

I tightened my grip on his throat, my aura pulsating with power. "You tell me?"
