104 Chapter 103: Battle of Beetham Tower 9 (2/2)
”Just in case” Leo smiled and subconsciously patted her head before turning back and headed towards the next floor.
Looking at the Leo who was slowly disappearing towards the staircase, Luna opened her mouth wanting to say something but in the end she just sighed because she knows how stubborn her cousin is even if she tries to persuade him to go with her.
”Please be safe” Luna prayed, worried because she doesn't want anything bad to happen to Leo because she wouldn't have the face to see Leo's parents if that happens.
There was a reason why she was this worried even when she already witnessed Leo's strength earlier. It was because there are a lot of mutated zombies the higher the floor someone goes up. She wanted to tell but in the end, didn't. She knows that Leo would just shrugged it off.
Well, if Leo knows what his cousin is currently thinking right now then he would probably coldly laugh and quote, ”My Combat Suit is like a bug in a computer system that has a life like a super cockroach that can't be squashed even if you wanted to”
Luna sighed to herself and looked towards the staircase where Leo disappeared into and thought to herself, 'I would have fallen for you if you weren't my cousin for saving me and any other girl would have felt the same. After all, no women could resist liking the man who had saved them from despairing moments'.
In the end, she just followed what Leo said and slowly made her way towards the second floor and the good thing was she still has the strength to walk on her own, this was the reason why Leo didn't escort her or told Isaac to bring people to get her down.
At first, Luna was very cautious with the pistol in her hand at the ready to shoot anything that moves towards her way while making her way down to the second floor but a couple of floors later, she finally let her guard down as she the multiple corpses of zombies littered at every floor she passed by.

”Yes mom. I finally found Luna” Leo said smiling.
”Really!? Thank god! That's great news!” a joyous voice sounded at the earpiece of Leo.
”You make sure you bring her back safe, okay!? She really worried me to death..I-I though she's already gone” Rachel voice's coming from the earpiece started sounding as she tried to keep her emotions in check.
”A-anyway! Make sure you bring back! If even a hair is missing in her head! You're dead!” Rachel's voice stuttered a bit before her blaring voice sounded at the earpiece
”Yes, yes” Leo just smiled bitterly.
”Alright, you take of yourself over there, okay? Don't overdo things and if you need to retreat then retreat, don't force your way in” Rachel said and the communication was already cut off before Leo could even say a thing.
”Okay~ mom” Leo said laughing.
He then just shook his head and mumbled to himself, ”Why do people always say those things just to make sure they sounded harsh. Geez, it's not like you would even know if someone really lose a hair if you didn't see it for yourself”.
