Chapter 1844 Do Not Let Them Come

"System, do not let them come. NO matter what." Jin said once more and whatever he said this time was final. He was not going to entertain any 'Let me prove myself! Kind of bullshit.'

And obviously, that really happened as Lein and Su Zhen came forward asking to aid Jin in his endeavour against the Mutated Undead Warrior. Grandma Yuan even asked Jin not to be stubborn as she was not in the position to command him despite the amount of scolding and punishment she gave Jin for not being responsible enough.

"We promise to not be in your way. Besides, the Italian Exorcists know about us. If you were there alone, then they might think you are somebody with evil intentions." Su Zhen begged to go to prove her worth once more. He did not see her be so determined as compared to the last time he saw her.

"Can't I just use my Demon Exorcist badge?" Jin asked as he looked at his Living Metal storage watch and had so many feelings for it. (He finally has instant access to an almost infinite storage compared to Virtual Reality.)

"You can, but it might be easier if you have someone they knew. Especially during operations like this, they would be stricter to the people who have access." Lian said as she and Rong continued to sit down to look at the commotion. She was not going to risk her life unnecessarily to fight against those Y'm-Bhi without knowing more about them.

"So, in short, I just need to bring one Demon Exorcist with me to follow me?"

"Yeah, kind of," Lian replied back and then she thought she was seeing things. Jin was pointing at her, causing her to be stunned for a moment. "Wait, what?"

"Yes, you. Lian, let's go. We don't have enough time. You have all your gear in your storage ring, right? The rest will stay. None of them are going with me except for her." Jin exclaimed and everyone was confused by the situation.

"Look, They can go in my stead, I am – I do not have the same offensive capabilities as them."

"Either you are coming with me, or none goes with me. Make up your mind. Time is wasted. 5,4,3" Jin looked at his storage watch and Lian felt that this is a disservice to the rest of the Demon Exorcists if she were to stay. Hence, she took the napkin beside her to wipe her mouth and drank the entire glass of tea in one gulp.

"This is ridiculous. Why me?" Lian said as she took out her gloves that acted as claw weapons. It is like those Y-MEN where they could get Gallium Claws out of their hands but Lian was using gloves with retractable claw blades as her weapon of choice. This is also because at the bottom of her wrist was a retracted blade which is useful for sneak attacks or even ambush fights where the claws were broken or she needed something to augment her fighting style.

The portal opened and Lian checked her floral dress and asked if she needed to change into something of a more neutral colour as this was the only last excuse she could make up on the spot. "Don't worry about that." Jin placed his hand on her shoulders and suddenly she felt a bit of a tingling sensation of chi flowing through her, causing her floral dress to literally turn all white. "It's a tinge of created wood bleach but without it being itchy to your skin or anything. Now. Let's. Go."

Jin said as he grabbed Lian's gloves and went into the portal, shutting it before anybody else could go through. Even Lein who tried to put his hand in had been forcefully rejected by the portal. Su Zhen felt terrible that she was not allowed to go back and she was experiencing it worse than Lein's rejection of the portal.

"Instructor Yuan, why?" Su Zhen asked and Yuan could only shake her head.

"Sometimes, being overzealous might make things more complicated. Jin recognised that you were agitated to prove yourself and so did Lein. He must have a reason why he needed a coolheaded assistant rather than someone who wants to make things right instead." Yuan said and told the two to sit down. "And since he had already rejected you, sit down and drink some tea to cool yourselves down. System, get Lynn or the Otters to bring us some calming tea."

"I don't need it," Rong said and Yuan scoffed a little.

When Jin and Lian went to the other side of the world in less than a second, they emerged near an alley and flagged a taxi down. "Sir, I would like to inform you that the Colosseum is currently closed."

"The whole Colosseum? Then why did I come to Rome?" Jin acted as if he were a frustrated tourist

"I do not know, but the news stated along the lines of possible weakness to the building that might need some time to fix. It is old after all. Are you sure, you want to go there?" The taxi driver asked.n)/o/.V(/e//l.-b(.I)(n

"Yeah, taking pictures from outside. Better than nothing!" Jin suddenly said in his terribly translated English when he knew that the System could probably fix that accent, grammar, and tone in an instant. Lian knew he was playing a fool when clearly he spoke fluent English for the previous line.

"Sigh. Why did I even suggest that? Should have kept my mouth shut as Rong did."

"Too bad, you are already here," Jin spoke to Lian from the System Channel.

"Besides, why are we here so early? Isn't the operation tonight?" Lian questioned and Jin continued to look outside the window.

"Since we already come all the way here, let's do some sightseeing around the Colosseum." Jin turned to smile at Lian but to her, it felt that smile had many hidden meanings.
