Chapter 635: Run, You Fool
The Incubus System Chapter 625. Run, You Fool
"Don't come closer!" Larry cried out, his voice filled with a determination that was almost palpable. I could see the same fierce resolve reflected in his eyes as he stared at me, and for a moment, he was struck by a sense of calm.
"Run, you fool," he whispered in a low voice, his words barely audible over the sound of Ruby's chilling laughter.
"Okay." Without hesitation, I turned to flee, ready to put as much distance between myself and the terrifying woman as possible. But before I could take more than a few steps, Larry's voice called out to me again.
"Wait! Wait! Wait! You're supposed to save me!" he complained, a hint of desperation creeping into his voice.
The words stopped me in my tracks, and I turned to look at him in confusion.
"You told me to run, but then you asked me to save you. Which one do you want?!" I protested, my voice filled with confusion and frustration.
"Both!" Larry replied, his tone firm and resolute.
"How?!" I snarled, my patience at its breaking point.
"I don't know. You're the knight, and I'm the hostage. You're supposed to be thinking of a way to save me from this crazy demon girl ---AAAAAHHH! " Larry exclaimed, his words cut off as Ruby suddenly tightened her grip on him, causing him to cry out in pain.
"Give up! I give up! I give up!" he cried out in a hoarse voice, his bravado apparently crumbling in the face of Ruby's strength.
Once again, I couldn't help but cringe at Larry's antics, wondering why I was still friends with him. Despite his loyalty as a friend, I couldn't help but think that he was hopeless in situations like these. My eyes fell on Ruby and Larry as I shook my head from side to side.
As I looked around, I noticed that our surroundings had grown eerily quiet, as if the very air itself was holding its breath in anticipation of what was to come. Yeah, I knew they were watching us as if we were a show. A free modern drama. I could feel their eyes upon us as they whispered about the love triangle rumor between me, Larry, and Ruby. To make it worse, some were saying that I had been unfaithful to Ruby, cheating on her with Larry. I wished I had the same flu mask to cover my face as Larry now.
"I am," I reassured her, but she did not budge.
Desperate for a solution, I remembered something. Secretly, I reached into my pocket and pulled out my blue polka dot keychain, the one which Celia just gave me. Then quickly I removed my house keys from it.
"Here, I want to give this to you as a present," I said, holding out the keychain to her. "I saw it at the market and thought of you so I bought it. I know it's cheap but it's a small token of my apology. I hope you can accept it," I exaggerated.
Ruby reached out and took the keychain, her eyes narrowing as she examined it. For a moment, I thought she was going to reject my gift, but then she let out a sigh and released Larry, who had been watching the exchange with a mixture of curiosity and fear.
"Thank you," Ruby said, patting the keychain before holding it close to her chest. "My precious," she whispered.
Once again, I could help but cringe. 'What the hell with both of them today?'
