Chapter 38 Reds

The girls sat down with tight seatbelts and stayed silent. The helicopter slowly started moving up stably and flew away.

"Give me the location of that island, Mako."

"M-Mako?" Makoto was startled but then smiled. "I like this nickname. Hey, you'll call me Mako from now on."

"My name is so short I can't make it shorter," Ellie said with a wry smile.

"Me too," Zoe said as she stuck out her tongue.

"Dio…this nickname sounds manly because of that anime. I saw it a lot of times on the internet," Dionne wryly smiled.

"Hahaha," Arkhan laughed as he remembered his days of watching Jojo's bizarre adventure.

"Location sent," Makoto said after sending the island's location to Arkhen, who had put his mobile phone on a monitor slot in front of him.

…

After an hour, they finally arrived at the island and saw a big island fully decorated with lights and wooden structures. The trees were also neatly arranged.

"Wow! This is awesome," Zoe said with excitement.

"Mhmm, mhmm," Evelyn nodded, as she was also excited.

Arkhen quietly sent a message to Mark that he wants 1 million dollars in his bank account and they arrived within a minute. He didn't need that much but just wanted to keep some amount in his account.

A staff member was already waiting there and greeted them with a small polite bow. "Welcome to this small heaven on Earth. Please follow me."

Arkhen and the girls followed the staff member as they arrived at the reception, which was at the forefront, right after the entrance. After paying for 10k per head, another staff member led them deeper into the island on two mini-cars.

After a while, they arrived at an exquisite wooden house but it was secured with a supernatural lock and the wooden walls were also enchanted, making Arkhen surprised.

"Dear guests, heaven is at the other side of the door. Everything is open, but it is magically enchanted. Nobody will be able to enter your private land. Please enjoy your stay," the staff members said after giving a metal card to Arkhen used to open the door.

The house was two hundred square feet, but when they entered inside, they were shocked.

In front of them was a big open hall with a beautiful pond in the middle. Four different rooms, two on the left, and two on the right. Moreover, they could see the ocean from the big open window!

The hall also had sands around the pond at the center, and it was decorated with plants at the corners. It also had long chairs, couches, sofa massage chairs, a TV, fresh plates of fruits and a big menu with a telephone on a table.

Zoe quickly jumped on a fluffy couch in the hall. "The air is so fresh here and everything is so relaxing and peaceful. Why haven't we heard of this place before?"

"This is really a good place," Arkhen nodded as he was super impressed. "Makes me want to live here."

Evelyn walked towards the two passages beside the big window and gasped. "There's more here. It's a big balcony."

The girls made themselves comfortable, but Arkhen was still standing.

"Ahem, girls. I had a good reason to bring you here," Arkhen said as he sat down on a sofa chair.

"What, brother?" Zoe asked curiously.

"I will have to leave for an hour," Arkhen said with a somber expression.

"Ehhh? Why?" Evelyn pouted.

"Yeah, since we are here, let's enjoy the peace. We can also play games," Dionne said.

"I am only going for an hour," Arkhen said with a serious expression. "Also, let me tell you a secret."

"Secret?"

Everyone became curious.

"Yes. I trust you girls and that's why I am revealing it to you," Arkhen said.

"Trust…"

The girls were overwhelmed and quickly nodded. "Even if we die, we won't say it to anyone," Makoto said with a determined face.

"Yes."

The other girls nodded.

"Eh, it's not that serious, haha. Sorry for that," Arkhen said as his straight face broke into a smile. "Your life is more important. Anyway, the secret is that I can teleport. So, I am going away for a while but don't tell anyone, okay? I got some important work to do but will be back after an hour."

"Oh… I wanted brother Arkhen to do our usual training here, but fine. If you have something important to do, then you can finish it first," Zoe said with an understanding expression.

"Yes," Evelyn nodded.

"Well, we will be waiting for you here," Ellie said with a smile. "Also, since you train your sisters, could you also train us, please?"

"Yes," Makoto and Dionne nodded with anticipation in their eyes. "I want to learn from you," Dionne said.

Zoe and Evelyn looked at each other with an understanding smile. It seems that they both had come up with a plan.

"Alright, I'll train everyone. See you after an hour," Arkhen said as he did a two-finger salute with a dashing smile and disappeared.

…

USA, Detroit, Michigan…

Arkhen appeared in a dark alley with a mask on his face that he got after spending 1 reality point.

'Before commencing this good deed, let's do a one roulette spin. Velshi,' Arkhen said.

[Congratulations. You have gotten an S-rank spirit technique, Roar of Bladues Tiger]

'Huh? Spirit technique? I guess it's for spirit energy users,' Arkhen said with a speechless expression.

[Indeed, my lord. Do you want to do one more spin? You have won 10 spins from the emergency quest]

'Nah, no need. Let's move onto the main business,' Arkhen said with a grin as he took out his Dragon-Tiger Jade Spear and started walking.

After walking for a bit, he saw another alley at the partition, but this one was very lively.

"Wow, so many reds," Arkhen said as a wild grin appeared on his face.

"What do you want, kid?" said a man with a tattoo covering half of his body and a slightly bulged-out stomach. "Are you here to play superhero with that spear?"

"Yep," Arkhen nodded as he took a step forward and pierced the spear into the man's throat before pulling the spear up, separating the head from his body.
