YM778.TV Chapter 135 Just A Few Little Things
"Oh come on now, can\'t you-" General Pasture spoke as he chuckled but before he could continue William cut him off,
"The final decision has been made, Sir Pasture. Leave. Now."
William\'s eyes had a certain glint in them as he observed Pasture. Pasture\'s expression broke a little, but he didn\'t let it stay even for a brief moment as he smiled as he continued,
"We all need each other in this apocalypse. Don\'t you think we should increase our chances of survival?"
"Then shouldn\'t you be leaving already?" it was Alissa who spoke as she smirked at that guy. Caroline chimed in as well,"staying here is only guaranteeing your doom."
It wasn\'t just them, but everyone around was just looking at Pasture as if he were some sort of villain. Well, not all of them, but at least all those who had the power to make a judgment were looking at him like that. Those who didn\'t have enough power were actually just confused about what was going on here.
"Is that so? Seems like I wasted your time here. Pardon my behavior but I should be leaving now," Pasture spoke as he looked at the faces of everyone present here before moving away from me.
I saw his power rising and then him vanishing from there before he muttered,"such wasted potential."
I saw the timer
[7 Seconds]
That was the amount of time left before I would have killed him. I guess he could be considered lucky in this regard.
"This was an unpleasant surprise!" I clapped my cheeks, refreshing my mood before I turned at William,"you catch up with Dad. I will discuss the rest with Alissa and Caroline."
He nodded at me and then began taking the rest of the new group inside the building. Though something caught everyone\'s eyes.
"Who are they?" Caroline asked curiously as she saw the men who were handcuffed and stuff, the bad guys, the ruffians who tried taking control of others.
"Well… they are.." I then told everyone what they were doing and asked William to see what he needed to do with them. Or more like Dad and him together, working out a way to use them without killing them and stuff.
\'If I personally handle the stuff, I will most probably end up selling them,\' I smiled wryly as I thought about it before turning to Alissa and Caroline.
"Let\'s get in. We got a lot to discuss, I suppose," I spoke before moving inside the building. I saw White who just glared at me for a few moments before he sighed and I kind of made an \'Oops!\' expression as I recalled that I promised to come back by yesterday evening and not today.
Though what I said next to him, changed his expression to that one of a surprise,
"Let\'s depart tomorrow morning."
Hearing my words, he nodded gladly before he moved out, and I went to a higher floor with the two girls. I didn\'t see Alex and George here, though.
\'Wonder where they went?\'
Anyway, I moved inside a random room on the third floor before moving to the master bedroom and lay down on the bed as I relaxed spreading my arms apart,
"Phewww… Man, that was a long walk. Well, tell me from the start. What happened?"
Hearing my question, Alissa first moved from the left side and moved to the bed before laying on my left shoulder, followed by Caroline, who laid on my other shoulder.
"We kind of missed you," spoke Alissa
"Yes, we did," Caroline followed with a smile as she kissed my cheek. Though I just chuckled as I said,
"That wasn\'t what I was asking, though."
"Read the mood idiot," spoke Alissa as she rubbed her hand on my chest before she spoke,"well… we did as you asked us to do. Dropped those ungrateful bastards and that b*tch on the military grounds before coming back here."
Caroline continued her words as,"She was literally crying and begging for William to stay with her but despite being the usual kind and nice guy, he was unsympathetic towards her, simply saying,\'this is the best for you, Arianna.\' Made me laugh out loud at that."
"Well, I guess she won\'t be causing any trouble for William for now," I relaxed as I thanked the heavens that at least one of the irritating problems just got solved by itself.
"What about Myla, though?" I asked as I wondered what happened to her and Alissa answered,"that military girl? Your former girlfriend? She was called upon by some major head or something to inform him about what happened in this scouting. After that, before she could come back, we left."
\'Someone higher than Myla, huh? I think it\'s her father,\' I thought as I sighed before looking at Caroline,"what happened to Alex and George? I didn\'t see them when I came here."
"Both of them went with some of the adults here to arrange some food and stuff. Alex said that he needed to check something out at a distance while George too thought about checking up on a cousin of his," Caroline explained and I pondered over it before checking up on the map.
After going through for a few seconds around the neighborhood, I found 2 energy signatures, along with a couple of other people traveling in a group together.
After that, I turned to Caroline as I spoke,"what about the plants and the energy products? Did you find anything regarding that?"
Hearing my words, Caroline\'s expression turned a bit wry as she turned to Alissa and spoke,"ask her about. I didn\'t understand even the last time she told me about it."
"I used some of my powers to communicate with the plants. It wasn\'t exactly hard; it was like they were an extension of me and rather than exactly communicating with them, I was controlling them.
I made them grow up a little, enough to provide us with food and I guess they can keep giving food for a long time to us. As for energy, nope. Nothing like that is still available yet," Alissa answered as she pondered a little while her fingers were making circles over my chest.
"I understand a little, I guess. Let\'s see if I can find an alternate source of energy," I thought as I wondered about how I should proceed with my next move.
\'Now that I think about it, I haven\'t received any side quests in a while, except this one,\' I recalled as I looked at the System screen.
[Electricity is the key to the function of daily life!]
[With the world going into chaos. All the energy sources have been halted for an unknown amount of time. Though that does not mean there is no way of creating electricity in your base.
Quest: Find a way to create a power source and built a dependable power source for your base
Reward: +5000 Cronas]
\'5000 Cronas, huh? Well, that would be a bonus, honestly, over the energy source and its applications,\' I thought before I felt a finger on my lips.
"All right, that\'s enough serious talk," Alissa spoke as she smiled and… began to take off her top in front of me and… Huh? Caroline! Ah… she is already topless…
