Chapter 125 - 125: The Giant White Cobra (1/2)
*Spurt* *Spurt* *Spurt*
Blood gushed out from the cuts and stabs on it's eyes as let out an ear-piercing screech. The two large fangs in it's mouth, were sliced off along with it's gums down it's throat.
It wailed out in pain as it's figure dived back down into the jungle, fading into the distance as it hid itself beneath the tree leaves.
The girl who could finally move, swung her blade cancelling out her flames before sheathing them.
She turned to Gray as he handed her other Katana back.
”Here,” He said, casually.
The girl couldn't help but stare at Gray.
She narrowed her eyes and asked. ”Aren't you... A bit too strong?”
”Maybe. Mind telling me who you are again? And how you ended up here with me?” Gray asked.
She looked around checking to see if there were anymroe monsters around, before sitting down on the platform.
”There's not much to say.”
The girl explained to him that her name was Delta and that she had gotten on the ship undercover under orders from the corps to keep track of my progress and make sure she wouldn't betray the US.
When the ship began breaking down, she grabbed onto him and next thing she knew, she woke up in the middle of nowhere on top of him,
Gray didn't expect her to be so straightforward. He was quite suspicious of it in fact.
”Doesn't undercover mean to not let me know about all of this?” He asked.
”There's no point in keeping it a secret.” She muttered before laying down and staring at the night sky.
It was unusually warm despite it being so dark out.
”My orders were simple, if you are deemed a threat, I am to dispose of you.” She added with an expressionless face.
”That's cute.” Said Gray with a smile.
The girl glanced at him with the same expression to see if he took her words as a joke or was looking down on her.
But to her surprise, it was far from those things. His expression didn't show a shred of fear or any amusement from her words...
It showed a simple gentle smile, but that was exactly what made it frightening.
Did he not care for his life? Or did he just not consider her anything near a threat...?
She who was ranked the highest in the corporation and considered a threat by even her squad members.
”Well that's all the questions that I need answered. I'll be heading off to that city in the far distance in search of my friends and sister now.”
Gray created another platform and walked onto it. The girl watched as his figure drew further and further away whilst he walked on the air.
”Don't start any forest fires.”
Gray gave a light wave before walking on.
He was trying to organise his thoughts.
He wasn't at all worried about them. If he made it then they most likely did.
Not to mention they were surely together in the ships cabin so they were most likely transported in a group.
The question would be where exactly they'd be transported.
If they were transported to a city full of horned ones then the risk of them being attacked would be high, especially if news of the war was known to many.
On the off chance that they weren't transported to the city but rather somewhere amongst this jungle, or ocean even, that's when things would get dangerous.
