End Of Nightmares (Book 3)

Chapter 99: Initiation of Carnage

"I don't know if they're confident on winning this thing or just plain stupid...." Claudius tilts his head, watching the monitor displaying every single one of Kingsglaives as they enter the country.

"That's CL for ya. Readable like a fucking book." Seungri grins, tapping his fingers together as he sees the foolishness of his previous comrade in arm.

"So, what now?" Claudius looks at Seungri for the next step.

"What now what? We just sit back, relax and enjoy the show." Seungri chuckles, resting both of his feet on the console, leaning deeper into the armchair.

"Shouldn't we put some insurance or something?"

"We already did. Did you forget about it?" Seungri winks at Claudius. Claudius claps his hands, now remembering what Seungri was referring to.

"Ooh! Right~~ Well, cup ramen?" Claudius cutely presents the cup noodle at Seungri, making Seungri rolling his eyes in disbelief.

"Put that away. I'll cook some goulash for us...." Seungri sighs, snapping his fingers for Claudius to follow him.

"Yay!" Like a child, Claudius jumps, cheering along the way to the kitchen area. There, while Seungri prepares the ingredients Claudius watches every step attentively with his feet dangling on the chair.

"I mean, we're cyborg and everything. Why would we still have to adhere ourselves to such mundane routine like eating?" Seungri gripes while pushing all the onions off the cutting board into the pot. He then sweats the onion before adding in the chunks of meat.

"Hey! Food is life! With this body, we can eat whatever we want and lots and lots of them without gaining any weight. We will be the source of envy to every woman out there! Imagine the look in their eyes as they wallow on their strict, plain, tasteless, green diet while we feast on the grease, the fat, and the sugar that can shoot their waistline up like a fucking rocket! That? Is priceless~~" Claudius explains his train of thought, his eyes sparkling as he sees the content of the large pot.

"Your definition of evil nowadays is REALLY all over the place." Seungri snickers, shaking his head as he adds the beef broth in. The aroma of beef blasts Claudius straight on, making the silver haired man smiling in content.

"But I think my version of evil is at the right place. Killing is easy, but destroying someone's will and determination without even lifting your finger and watch them slowly dying inside and outside? That's the true master of the trade."

"And takes a lot longer and tedious preparation. Bang, bang, dead. Problem solved." Seungri places his argument. Claudius forms a mischievous grin, taking a cheap shot.

"Says the one who had planned for this day for thousands of years...." Claudius mutters underneath his breath. But Seungri of course caught on that.

"And with that, goulash has been changed to cheap Cheddar cheese and slices of bread." Seungri kills the flame of the stove, taking out a loaf of bread and processed cheese from the fridge.

"Ah! No! My goulash! Seungri!!!"

"What do we got?" Della nudges Rachel, who got her eyes on the binocular. That night, the Kingsglaives launches a search and destroy mission to put a new jumpstart on the uprising. Before, Amaranthe is suffering from continuous losing streak. But not tonight.

Tonight, Amaranthe got herself a new ally. And that ally has the fighting capacity that exceeds even the human's imagination.

"Public execution, huh? That brings me back to Kandahar." Della takes the binocular from Rachel and observes the square. True enough, Eye of Horus is holding on their version of law and justice; beheading and shooting those they deemed as the enemy of the state.
