Chapter 65: Bubbling Storm (1/2)
After finishing their food, both Rex and Liliya then buy some juice before they seat on a bench beside the streets.
They're still looking at the streets while sipping their drinks,
Rex then asks curiously, ”Tell me, how did you end up in the organization?”
Hearing this, Liliya hesitated for a moment.
She doesn't feel like telling Rex that story, she looks down and plays with her hand trying to ease her nervousness.
Rex noticed this, ”Well my story is pretty funny actually”, he said before glancing at Liliya.
Her hand has stopped fidgeting, she then gaze at Rex with interest before Rex continues, ”A lecturer of mine suddenly noticed that I am gifted, so he brand me with the tattoo. A couple of days later, the green messenger suddenly appeared when I'm chilling on the university rooftop”
Remembering this, Rex shakes his head, ”He started attacking me, Thankfully I can defend against him. He didn't even give me a choice, he just tossed me the serum and one sidedly say that I'm part of the organization”, Rex said feeling annoyed the more he remember it.
Liliya was shocked, ”Wait, you got tested by the Green Messenger and got the serum?!”
”You don't? I thought you guys also experienced this”, Rex replied feeling confused.
”No, we got contacted by one of his agents and also got tested by them. We didn't even got the serum”, Liliya said dejectedly.
She then looks at Rex with stars in her eyes and ask, ”So what did the serum do?! Is it super physique? or hidden skills?”, she suddenly becomes excited all of a sudden.
Rex was stunned, he's not used to seeing Liliya like this, ”Well it's a surprise, you'll have to wait for it”
”Please tell me! I'm dying to know”, Liliya said as her body leans closer to Rex.
Rex was overwhelmed, Liliya's body is close or in fact too close.
He can even see her assets hiding behind her haggard clothes, Rex can also smell her womanly scent.
His super smell works against him this time, because of it he can smell Liliya's scent more clearly making him intoxicated by it.
Liliya's hair falls down covering her right eye, her purple eyes is open wide with anticipation.
Rex gulped unconsciously before pushing her lightly, ”Fine I'll tell you”
Hearing this, Liliya was excited.
Unknown to her, Rex almost got a heart attack, 'Shit, There's actually a downside in my super senses', Rex thought wryly.
He then cough to neutralize his breathing and said, ”The first time I got injected, my gifts are enhanced, and I also got night vision ability”
Liliya opened her mouth in shock, ”THAT'S SO COOL! I want it too!”, she said excitedly.
Then suddenly Rex remembered the system's saying, ”It's cool but I got sick afterwards, the serum is strong so you might be bed ridden for a while”
Hearing this, Liliya nodded her head in understanding.
”So, how did you met with Devan? Have you been to the organization?”, Rex asks, he felt curious about the organization.
Rex is also very confused about the SCO, the organization seems to pick gifted people and loathes Awakened.
'If that's the case, Will I need to hide my Awakened abilities? but Mr. Joseph is an Awakened, the green messenger also asks me to recruit Adhara', Rex thought feeling troubled about the complicament.
”Well, Devan and I meet when we were contacted by the Organization. There we get to know each other for a bit”, Liliya said while touching her lips.
Rex got distracted for a moment, ”Ekhm, anything happened during your visit?”
”Let me try to remember...”, she said while tapping her lips.
Rex don't know why she's doing that, maybe she's just thinking but it still alluring.
”Oh!”, she exclaimed suddenly.
Rex jolted out of his daze,
”We saw an Enchanter Carcass inside, it is a decoration of trophy or some sort. A powerful Enchanter at that too, it's probably around rank 7 or even 8!”, She said, Liliya explained excitedly way different than her a couple of minutes ago.
”Really?! That's unexpected”, Rex replies in shock, he knows what an Enchanter is, they usually mentioned in every war report.
At first, Rex didn't hope much as long as he got benefits from the SCO then it's all good but he didn't expect for them to even able to kill an Enchanter.
'An Enchanter? The SCO is that strong?', Rex thought.
An Enchanter is the most guarded Supernatural, naturally they are very hard to kill almost impossible to say the least.
Liliya also got excited, ”I know right?! Who would've thought!”
Just as they are chatting, Devan suddenly appeared out of nowhere, ”There you are, I've been searching for you guys everywhere”
He approach Rex and Liliya before saying, ”Why aren't you guys in the bar? I told you guys to wait there”
”About that”, Rex said with a wry smile.
He then recalled all of the things happened in the bar,
Hearing this, Devan also got angry and wanted to go to the bar but stopped by Rex, ”We got a mission, let's focus on that”
After that, Devan nodded before they resume their journey.
Inside the SCO territory,
The green messenger is inside a meeting room that is filled with people wearing the same clothing as him, the difference is only in their colors.
There are red, blue, brown, white, and black messenger sitting around the circular table.
There is no sound heard from each of them, they all are patiently waiting for someone like a statue.
Not long after,
Jax, the middle-aged man wearing black crown with a nine-headed black crow tattoo enters the room.
