Chapter 80: Choosing A Room

The Commander couldn’t keep her face from frowning.

The Paru was walking beside her, which was incredibly annoying.

From the corner of her eyes, she could see his huge and proudly displayed crotch.

Even when staring dead in front of her, it was still in her peripheral vision, which caused continual and perpetual embarrassment.

She sped up, so as to leave him one step behind her. That way, at least, even if he were to follow her, it would be outside of her field of vision.

The Paru sped up too, refusing to be cut out of her field of vision.

While it was accepted that the Paru couldn’t talk, the heavy silence only made her embarrassment grow.

Roka decided that she needed to talk to make it a bit easier to bear.

She thought about what to talk about, and couldn’t find anything.

What is one supposed to say when talking to an alien?

“When we fought that Wizzo, you were moving all over the place. That’s no good...”

‘Huh? Straight to business? Alright...’

“The Visero are more dangerous because of the crystals that cover their bodies. Plasma will only work when hitting the body parts that aren’t covered by those crystals. Otherwise... Bad things happen.”

‘Aha...?’

“You can’t hop around randomly. If you do, we won’t be able to help. Always make sure you’re not standing between us and the enemy. That way we can assist you.”Điscover new chapters at novelhall.com

‘If I move everywhere, you won’t be able to get a good shot in... At worst, I might even end up hit.’

“Stay out of our line of sight at all times. That way we’ll be able to fight at the same time.”

The Paru scratched his neck.

While what Roka was saying was true, it wasn’t exactly the type of discussion he expected.

Apart from her frantic increase and decrease in speed, she was completely calm, collected, and composed.

Completely different from how she was inside of her room that night when the Paru peeked through the ventilation ducts.

“The Visero are more agile than Graniliths or Wizzos, so we’ll have to think carefully about how we will fight them...”

Combat and how to fight the Visero seemed like the most proper excuse.

Liz quickly accepted Roka’s excuse as the truth. She, too, wanted to take her mind off some things...

“So, this one is empty. This one, too. That one is empty as well...” Kris pointed at different doors. “We lost many... But on the bright side... There’s um... A lot of space?”

“Was that supposed to be a joke?” Al muttered with a frown.

“Well...” Kris scratched his head. “There’s no need to... Impose what happened upon him, is there?”

“I suppose...”

“So, there you go. That’s a lot of rooms. You can choose which one you want. Some are smaller and some larger, since some were shared by multiple of our comrades. Since then, we’ve kind of chosen whichever one we wanted for ourselves. You can do the same.”

‘Cool...’ The Paru thought to himself as he wandered through the different rooms. ‘I don’t really care about their sizes. The only thing that matters to me is...’

Proximity.

‘Roka’s room is the only one I’ve entered. Raya is usually in the lab, and Rea in the command room. I don’t know where their rooms are, or where Liz’s is. Should I just take the closest one to Roka’s? Mmm... I could also take the closest one to the vault. Not sure if there’s a need for that, since I will probably spend most of my time with her anyways...’

The Paru wandered for a bit longer, followed by Kris and Al.

“Could you hurry it up?”

“Oh, come on. This is an important choice.”

“Is it...?”

The next second, a door was opened.

“Hey-”

It didn’t even last a moment.

Liz had exited her room, looked in their direction, turned around, and went back inside.

‘Oh...’

That moment was enough for the Paru to notice her gaze directly going to his crotch, as well as her intense blushing.

‘If it’s like that... Maybe I should take to the room next to her?’
