403 Two Different Groups, Something Boiling Deep Within (2/2)

Of course, the activity of Mark's group was not accepted by everyone. On the second floor of the Retreat House, a group of people was watching what was happening in the recreation area.

”Look at those people. Don't they know that the world is ending? They actually have the gal to have fun. They sure know how to waste time.”

The one speaking was no other than Harold. The leader of the survivors that were rescued at the Municipal Hall of Taytay, Rizal.

He was frowning as he viewed such activities after the end of the world as nothing but a waste of time.

Furthermore, they should already be on the way to safety if not for the commander of these people returning injured.

”Yeah, there are wasting their time. Let's see if they can still laugh like that if we are suddenly attacked by the infected.”

One of the people in their group chimed in.

”They can have fun like that since they are strong.”

Kate spoke while staring intensely at Mark. With her natural disposition, it was easy for her to gather information from other people, especially, men. Of course, it did not mean that she would blindly share the information she gathered.

That was why these people were behaving like this. It was because they did not know the true strength of the group below. They think that most of their strength came from those odd vehicles and the three monsters.

Prince, on the other hand, was silently staring at the women below like a dog in heat.

At the side, someone was looking at them like idiots though.

He was nothing else other than Case.

Compared to these narrow-minded idiots, the carefree people below were more reliable.

As such, he decided to leave with both his hands on his pockets.

”Case, are you leaving again?”

Kaira immediately noticed him even though the others were oblivious.

Hearing Kaira's voice, the others noticed Case that already turned around to leave.

”Case, are you slipping out again?”

Harold questioned with a frown.

Case turned his head and looked at Harold with his right eye.

”You said that they are just wasting time right? Then, it will be better for me to leave than waste time watching others waste their time.”

Case then turned around avoiding the angry glare of Harold.

Kaira looked at the two alternately before chasing after Case with a worried expression.

Of course, after the two left, Harold was fuming.

”Just let them leave,” Kate spoke with her normal seductive tone. ”Unlike us, they don't have powers. They are more anxious about things.”

That made Harold take a deep breath.

”That's right.” Harold nodded. ”Just let those two be. We don't need weaklings.”

***

”Weaklings... Huh...”

Case snickered.

Although he was already on the first floor, he was able to hear those people above.

”Case, you're being rebellious again!”

Kaira exclaimed in worry.

It had always been like this. Everyone would follow Harold's instructions since he was the leader. Everyone except Case though.

She also noticed that he was being exceptionally grumpy since this morning.

Case then turned to Kaira.

”Tell me. If you have to choose. Will you come with me or stay with them.”

Kaira was stumped at the sudden question.

”Wh-why are you asking about that. Do you want to leave?”

Kaira asked in a panic.

Instead of answering that question, Case turned his back at Kaira and spoke.

”Last night... That pervert narcissist touched you again didn't he?”

Kaira's eyes went wide.

”How did you...”

”Of course, I will know. It happened several times before. He does that to any woman in our group if he is anxious about things. With what happened last night, that bastard is bout to do that. It's fortunate that he doesn't have the courage to do more or he will receive Harold's wrath. He's a dumb coward after all. I'm thankful for Harold that he made such rules.”

Case looked up.

”Still, you didn't even ask me for help.”

Tears fell from Kaira's eyes.

”I'm sorry... I don't want you to get in trouble. He's someone with powers. We are normal people.”

”There's no reason to stay with those idiots anymore. I'm going to leave. Will you come with me? You don't need to undergo those horrible things anymore.”

Case spoke with a sinister glint in his eyes.

”But... Sir Harold will not forgive us.”

”Don't worry about it.” Case grabbed Kaira's hand. ”Their existence is already useless to us. I already talked with the commander of the soldiers last night, remember? That person is way better... No, he's incomparable to that tyrant.”

”I'll try to convince him to let us join them.”

Case added which made Kaira nod.

Receiving her affirmation, Case looked down. He had quite a guilty expression.

”Actually, I'm sorry. I let you suffer like that. Even though I knew, I didn't make any move. Don't worry, I'll personally erase that bastard after tearing his precious face apart.”

”Case, what are you saying...”

Kaira asked but Case did not reply. He pulled her away. Their direction, towards the recreation area.
