Chapter 41

Lunox’s Point of View

“Try to guess,” he said and smirked. I gritted my teeth.

“I’m not here to fool around!” I yelled.

“Compose yourself,” I murmured to myself. I inhaled and exhaled. Calm down, Lunox.

He knew that Twilight Goddess and Lunox Radcliffe is one. “Moonlit, come back,” he’s still holding Moonlit but I have to get it back just in case. Leomord released Moonlit all of a sudden. Moonlit came back to my hands.

“You got complete control of your weapon, not bad,” He commented.

“Transform to a gun,” Moonlit changed into a gun. I aim the gun at him. “Don’t beat around the bush, Leo. Answer my goddvmn question!” I said. Leomord raised both of his hands like he’s surrendering himself. “You got to chill, Twilight. Is an overnight stay in the forest exhausted you?” He asked. I pulled the trigger. “Leomord!” I yelled his name with a threatening tone.

“Lotus must have told you the situation here got worst,” he said. Again, I was stunned. I lowered the gun. How did he know all of this information? Only members of Lustitia, inc. can get this information. It means that he’s an assassin too. Why didn’t I notice?

“Who are you, Leo?” I asked. He turned his back on me. “Let’s discuss it in my cabin. It’s not safe to spoil information here. Also, let’s take them back to the camp office. Agile Tiger is there,” he stated and started to walk. He knew all of the codenames of people working under Lustitia, incorporation. Agile Tiger is Wanwan’s codename, Lotus is my brother’s and Twilight Goddess is mine. We used these codenames when we’re in a mission because it’s not safe to call each other by our real name’s. It will expose our identity. Our world does not spin around as an assassin. We still have our own life. I as Lunox Radcliffe, a high school student. My brother as an unemployed man if you don’t consider his job as an assassin. However, how does Leomord know? Why didn’t I suspect him? Why didn’t I notice? I investigated him but it was normal. His profile is just like any normal person so I didn’t suspect him. He doesn’t also look like a suspicious person. I have many questions to ask him.

As we walk, I can see no one except for us. “They have gone back to school,” he said. Intramurals Sports is a one-week event. We haven’t stayed here for at least five days. I shrugged. Something must have happened while I was gone, something big.

“We’re here on the camp office,” he said. He opened the door. “Go in and you’ll see a girl in there. She’ll accompany you,” he added. The students stood behind me. They held my suit. They’re scared. After what they have experienced, they don’t trust someone that easily. I turned around to look at them. I patted their head. “Everything will be just fine. The girl inside is nice. She wouldn’t hurt you,” I said. I looked at their faces. They aren’t convinced.

“Do you want me to tell you a secret?” I asked. They nodded. I came closer to them. I pretended to observe the place if someone is there and placed my palm beside my mouth and whispered, “The girl’s name inside is named Wanwan. If she did something to you, just mentioned the word Ling and she’ll shut up,” I winked at them.

I fixed my position and straightened up. I turned around again. “They’re fine now,” I said. They let me go and walked inside.

“You must have been tired, Twilight. Not only you gained control over the situation in the forest but you also saved them along the way. You impress me,” he said. Shvt. I almost forgot about Roger. I need to help them! I was about to leave when he spoke, “Are you leaving so soon? Don’t you want answers?” I halted.

“The people inside the forest is more important,” that is my response to him.

“It’s difficult to persuade you, tsk. Words isn’t enough to change your mind. You’re really something, Lunox,” he said. I gritted my teeth. I rushed to him and grabbed his collar.

“Can you stop mentioning my real name? What if someone overheard our conversation?” I asked. He just smiled. I let him go.

“It’s only us here. This camp is under our control. It’s way out of his league. He has found out our plan so he made actions. Tsk, it was all for nothing. Still, the plan will continue. We’ll drag him down,” he said. I’m so confused. It’s like I’m missing something.

“Confused? I’ll answer all of your questions in my cabin. Let’s go there. The others are waiting for you too,” he said.

“Right! Change your clothes. You want to go there as Twilight Goddess?” He asked.

“Tsk,” I said. “I’ll go get change first. You go ahead. I’ll just go there after I changed my clothes,” I added. I walked pass by him and didn’t wait for him to reply.

“One more thing, the students whom you meet in the forest will win the match. You don’t have to worry about them,” he yelled. I touched my chest. I sighed in relief.

“Thank God,” I mumbled and smiled. I’m not sure if I should believe Leomord’s words. How can he assure that they’ll win? He isn’t in the scene to begin with. However, Leomord isn’t the kind person who’ll lie so he must be telling the truth. I’ll ask him later about that.

I went back to my cabin. I opened the door. Ruby must have left too. Her things aren’t here. I see… She cleaned the place before she went back. I smiled. She must have been worried about me. I tilted my head. I climbed upstairs and changed my outfit. I pressed the button on my suit. Then, the suit disappeared and combined with moonlit. Moonlit turned into a normal bag again.

“Nice job, Moonlit. Thank you for your service as always,” I said.

“Ha ha ha, I always got your back, Twilight. You’re welcome,” she replied. I hid it under the bed. I went straight to the bathroom and took a bath. I stink. I didn’t take a bath for a day there. After I take a bath, I wore the clothes that I picked. I laid down on the bed.

“Too tired to even stand up,” I mumbled to myself. I looked at the ceiling.

“My back hurts. My feet hurt. My hands hurt. In short, my whole-body hurts!” I said and hugged the pillow beside me.

“I’ll rest for a while. Leo can wait… My body’s condition is…. more important. If I don’t rest… I’ll collapse of over fatigue….” I said and yawned. My eyes are slowly closing. The darkness took over me and I gradually drift away.
