Chapter 38

Lunox's Point of View

"It's heavy!" I exclaimed. I opened my eyes. It's already day time. I think the time is six o'clock in the morning. I looked around. Yeah, they got drunk until they were wasted and passed out.

I kicked Roger who's hugging my leg. "You weigh tons!" I whispered and kicked him hard. I succeeded. He got off me. I have high tolerance towards alcohol. I was the first person to sleep, and the first person to wake up early. Tsk.

"Is this the place?"

"Yes, look! They're still sleeping. We have grenades and bombs we can use. After all, they're traitors."

Ara, ara. Someone wants to ambush us. I got up slowly and ran behind the tree. I climbed up to the tree and stopped when I saw them hiding behind the bush. They didn't see me because I hid my presence.

"We have ten people with us," said the blonde man. "I-Is it going to work?" asked the other man.

"It will. He will be happy if he gets rid of the traitors so that no information will be leaked," he answered. I slowly climbed down.

*I'm sorry but not on my watch. * "Change to nightstick," I mumbled as I took out Moonlit. "Changing to a nightstick..." Moonlit said. It transformed to a nightstick.

I walked slowly towards them. When I'm in their backs, I raised the nightstick and hit the nape of one of them. "Should we—" He collapsed.

"Ara, ara..." I said. He's the leader. It's game over if I caught the leader because no one will command them. I placed the nightstick on his neck. "Don't move muscle, boy," I whispered to the back of his ear. "W-Who are you?" He said while stuttering.

"Twilight Goddess~" I said sweetly. "L-Lustitia, inc.?" I drew closer the nightstick at his neck. "Shh. No one is allowed to talk but me. I didn't give you a signal to open your mouth," I whispered.

"Your purpose is to get rid of them, correct? You'll kill them," I stated. "I-If you knew—I'm sorry! I won't talk!" He exclaimed. "Good boy," I commented. The more he talks, the more the nightstick will get closer to him.

"You mentioned earlier that you have ten people with you. Tell me the location and I'll spare you," I said. "S-Sure. I-I'll tell you. I have a tracker in my pocket. It is for them so that I'll know if they're dead or alive," he said. I bend down and find his pocket. "Got it," I murmured.

"Thanks," and I patted his shoulder. I put the night stick away from me. "Sorry but you have to be like your friend to." I said. I raised the nightstick and hit his nape. He fell unconscious too.

I looked at the tracker. Hmm. They're ten people and they have surrounded the place. "Time to do my job as an assassin. This is where I'm best at!" I said.

There’s one not far away from my location. He’s the lucky one. I didn’t climb the trees this time. There is no need. I can just walk and let them see me. In this way, it will be fun and I’ll enjoy! Mask Man underestimated on what he called traitors. I followed the red dot of the tracker device. This is the place. I checked where is he at. “I’m the seeker and you’re all the hider. I caught you,” I said.

He’s asleep and he has his hat on the top of his face. I approached him. I removed the cap that covers his face. “I’m sleeping late—” I pressed the button of the nightstick to turn on the taser mode. “F-Fvck…” He cursed “Sleep for a while,” I said and hit his nape. He fell unconscious. I saw a rope somewhere. It must be his. I’ll better use it or it will be a waste. I grabbed his leg and dragged him to the tree. I tied him to the tree. I removed his jacket. I might find useful things inside his jacket. I searched through but I only found gums and condoms. I rolled my eyes. “Teenagers,” I said.  “One target down,” I said after I searched thoroughly his belongings. I stood and left.

“Next target,” I said and looked at the tracker.

“Ara, ara. He’s right in front of me,” I added. I looked forward. The bush suddenly wiggled. “I caught you,” I teased him. Oho. Why is he trying to run away? “Don’t run away!” I yelled. I chased him. Even if he runs away, I’ll caught up. It’s no use. I jumped to the trees. I can see him up here. He’s still running.

“Change to a boomerang,” I said. Moonlit that is a nightstick transformed into a boomerang. “Cool,” I commented. I aimed the target whom I’m chasing. I hurled the boomerang. The boomerang flew in vast speed. A few seconds, the target tripped. He was knocked by the boomerang. The boomerang went back to me. I caught it. Before I climbed down from the tree, I hurled the boomerang once more. I advanced to where he is.

“Why are you running?” I asked.

“I’m not a beast that will eat you whole,” I added.

“Who are you?! Why did you capture Mico?” He asked. I squat down and touched his face.

“He’s a bad guy, duh,” I replied.

“Bad people deserve that. Are you a bad guy?” I asked in a sweet tone.

“Don’t touch me!” He exclaimed and slapped my hand touching his face.

“Where’s Rich and Chard?!” He asked again.

“You must be pertaining to the blonde guy and other guy that is with him,” I said. I heard him cussed. He shoved me and put out a gun. “I can’t die here! You have to die first, motherfvcker!” He yelled. He triggered the gun. I just remained on my place. He smirked at me. “You already admit defeat. You lose, bvtch. This is for hurting me!” He yelled and showed his middle finger. He was about to shoot me when I saw my boomerang coming back.

“Right in time,” I mumbled. I smiled sweetly to him. “I win and you lose,” I said before he was knock out by the boomerang at the back of his head.

“Two targets down,” I said before I left him.

I have captured the remaining targets. I slapped the target’s cheek. “Playtime’s over, sorry,” I said before I punched him. “Nine targets down,” I said as I tied him.

“I wonder where the last kitten is hiding,” I added. I looked at the tracker. He’s closed by. When I saw him, he’s taking a shvt. I covered my nose.

“It stinks!” I exclaimed.

“Are you done?” I asked.

“Not yet. This is the last one!” He answered.

“Okay. I’ll wait for you,” I said. I climbed not too high on the tree. I lied down on the branch. “I’ll rest for a while,” I mumbled. After few minutes, I can sense that he’s trying to escape.

“Kitty cat, you have nowhere to hide,” I stated and glanced at him. His eyes widen. He tried to run away but I threw the boomerang and he collapsed. “And that’s the last one,” I concluded.

I came back to the camp.  Oho. It looks like they’re all awake now. “What’s this?” Roger asked as he rubbed his eyes.

“Souvenir,” I simply answered. I put the last target together with the other targets. All of the ten targets along with the blonde guy and the guy with him is piled together with their hands and feet tied. After they have fallen asleep, I’ve carried them back to the camp and brought them here. It was tiring but I enjoyed.

“They’re trying to ambush us while we’re still asleep but I was the first one to get up and overheard their plan so I captured them and brought them here,” I said. They all stared at me. I felt conscious. Did I say something wrong?

Then, they all cheered.

“You protected us?”

“You did all of these? You care for us!”

“Our savior! You’re really our savior. I’ll never doubt you again!”

“Whoa! Roger didn’t lie. He’s always right!”

They surrounded me and praised me. “Coming through!” It’s Roger’s voice. He was beside me by now. He touched my shoulders. “I never lie. I only speak of the truth. Now, you have seen her greatness. She’s someone we can trust. Once again, she’s Twilight Goddess!” He shouted and they all jumped and cheered.

“See? You’re a likeable person,” he said and tapped my shoulder.
