Chapter 169 Why are you here?
𝒷𝒹𝓸𝓿𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝓶Rakan could see the water quickly freezing from the top down like in Fantasy movies.
The Zombies that were being pushed back by the water were also frozen, no, to be more precise, they were submerged in a layer of ice.
“Impossible!” Rakan couldn’t believe what was happening before his eyes.
All 5,000 Zombies surrounding the mountain were completely frozen. No matter how good his equipment was, it could only warm a Zombie’s body.
That device could not melt or break the ice covering the Zombies.
Velys stood on a branch panting, and her face pale. Then… her body shook and she fell off the branch.
Laylah suddenly appeared, hugging Velys in her arms. At this moment, Laylah discovered that Velys was unconscious.
She smiled and said: “You did very well, now, you can rest.”
Laylah then looked around. She couldn’t believe that Velys could freeze the entire place, including the zombies at the foot of the mountain.
To do this, Velys feared she had emptied all the energy inside her body.
“Awful. I didn’t think that Velys’ power would be this frightening.” Future Laylah spoke up: “I never thought she would have fire and ice powers.”
“Hm?! What do you mean?” Present Laylah asked.
“In my timeline, Velys could only use Fire superpowers.” Future Laylah said: “However, it seems that the current Velys is much stronger than the Velys in my timeline.”
Laylah frowned, she didn’t know how to explain this. In the end, Laylah could only turn towards Hikaru.
That’s right, if everything changed compared to the future Laylah’s timeline, it could only be because Hikaru changed.
Laylah didn’t think much and carried Velys back to the villa. She knew for sure Hikaru would handle the rest.
…
Rakan stayed in the shelter, as he looked at the entire mountain covered in a layer of ice and despair.
“Why?! I prepared everything but i still can’t win?
“Why do they possess such frightening superpowers and I don’t?”
“Why?”
[Ding! Do you want to start ‘Big Boy’?]
Rakan saw a notification appear on the screen, and his eyes became fierce.
“Start ‘Big Boy’. System, prepare to escape.”
[Ding! Unable to start ‘Big Boy’.]
“What?!” Rakan seemed unable to believe what the system had just said. He frowned and asked: “What the hell are you talking about?” Why can’t it be started?
“Hurry up! Start ‘Big Boy’. Hurry up!”
[Ding! Unable to start ‘Big Boy’]
“Damn it! What the hell is going on?” Rakan was angry, so he opened the control screen: “If the system can’t start it, I can start it manually.”
“You can’t start it.”
Suddenly, a voice rang out. Rakan heard that voice and was immediately scared: “That’s… Hikaru?”
“Hahaha… that’s right.”
Outside, Hikaru stood facing a very ordinary tree. However, within this tree trunk was Rakan’s refuge.
Rakan knew that he had been discovered so he immediately removed his disguise.
The tree immediately disappeared, it was replaced by a cylindrical room that was about 5 square meters. The room was made of a steel plate that was more than 5mm thick.
Hikaru knew that even though Rayze was inside that box, he could still hear everything Hikaru said.
At this moment, Hikaru took out a chip the size of a thumb from his pocket and threw it on the snow.
“Here’s your Big Boy, sorry, Its in pieces.”
“What?!” Hearing Hikaru’s words, Rakan was startled with fear: “No way! How could you know of Big Boy’s existence? You have no way of knowing its location.”
Hikaru shrugged: “No, I know everything. From Big Boy’s position to how to deal with it.”
“But I find it very difficult to understand. Why did you attack that mansion? You knew that Aiko was inside that place, don’t you care if she dies?.”
Rakan saw that Hikaru had no intention of attacking him, he then frowned, and secretly thought to buy time.
That’s right, he wanted to buy time so the system could create a path for him to escape.
He had asked the system to create a tunnel leading underground. That tunnel would be connected to the subway tracks below.
Of course, he also prepared a car to escape. Now, he just needed to make Hikaru relax and be less wary of him.
After that, he could take the emergency exit and leave this place.
As long as he was alive, he believed that one day he could return to take revenge.
Rakan was not 100% sure whether he could defeat Hikaru’s group because after seeing Velys’s superpower, he felt extremely hopeless.
‘Damn it! If I can’t get revenge, I’ll run away from this city and go to another city.’
‘Or I could even go to another country. I don’t believe that this world is so small that there is no place for me to hide.’
“Are you dumb?” Hikaru smiled disdainfully: “Or do you think you can find a way to escape from this place?”
“Ah! I suddenly remembered that about 40 meters below here there is a subway track, are you planning to use that road to escape?”
Rakan: “??!!”
‘What the hell? He… how could he know my plan?’
‘He can’t! Maybe he is just speculating. The subway tracks passing through this place are something that every resident of this city knows so its not a big deal if he knows about it.’
‘That’s right. He is just speculating.’
Rakan tried to calm down: “Hahaha… I didn’t think that you held me in high regard?”
“So… Can you tell me how I plan on getting there? That place is more than 40 meters from the subway tracks. So do you suppose that i will drill a road leading there?”
“That’s right.” Hikaru shrugged and said: “With your personality, that’s extremely possible.”
“I just want you to answer my question. Why did you choose to attack my villa? You know Aiko is inside, right?”
Rakan frowned, he didn’t really care about Hikaru’s question. At this moment, Rakan operated on the screen, then a notification appeared.
[Ding! Transportation has been successfully prepared.]
Rakan saw this notice board and smiled: “Hahaha… Hikaru, see you another time.”
“Ah! Don’t think you can catch up to me. Hahaha…”
As soon as Rakan finished speaking, the ground beneath his feet split open, revealing a tube like a slide.
Rakan immediately jumped down the slide, then disappeared.
Hikaru stood on the ground without worry, as he waited calmly.
About 30 seconds later. The ground suddenly trembled violently, and a mound of earth suddenly rose up.
Then, the mound broke open, and Rakan’s head appeared on the ground. Of course, Rakan was still alive, he only felt confused because he did not expect to appear here.
Rakan remembered just now, that when he jumped into the slide, he glided for about 20 meters, before immediately falling into a lake.
That’s right, the slide he had prepared was flooded. The water flooded 50% of the road, making it impossible for him to continue sliding down.
With Rakan’s careful personality, he immediately felt that something was wrong. And of course, he also did not want to dive below.
However, before Rakan could climb back up to the ground, he was swept down by the stream of water, then pushed up in another direction.
When Rakan saw Hikaru, he was startled before he felt extremely hopeless.
He was not a stupid person, he knew that today it would be difficult for him to escape from Hikaru’s hands.
“Ah! Don’t you want to run anymore?” Hikaru laughed, his voice filled with contempt.
“Hikaru… I… I feel like we can negotiate. I know Aiko is still alive. I don’t need her anymore.” At this moment, Rakan suddenly changed his voice.
“She is yours, I… I will leave this city, I…”
“Answer my question…” Hikaru’s voice rang out, interrupting Rakan’s words.
Rakan looked up and saw Hikaru’s cold and murderous face. He felt scared and his body suddenly trembled.
“I… I think she betrayed me, that’s why, I… I want to kill her.”
Hikaru shook his head: “She is your sister. Even though she is not related by blood, she is someone who has taken care of you for a long time. She never even complained about this.”
“In the end, did you kill her just because of your speculation?”
Hearing this, Rakan gritted his teeth and felt extremely angry: “You are a winner, how can you know the feeling of a loser?”
“You were born with a golden spoon in your mouth. When you were born, you were right at the finish line, and I couldn’t even touch the starting line.”
“You cannot understand how terrible it feels to be a failure, to be betrayed.”
“She takes care of me… yes, but that’s her responsibility. My father saved her and gave her a new life, so she has to repay my family.”
“Her life was given to her by my family. But now, just because of a few words from you, she has betrayed me.”
“She’s such a whore, I would rather kill her than let her live.”
“You also think that I’m correct, right?”
“Hm… I don’t think that way at all. But… I will give you a chance to live.”
Listening to Hikaru, Rakan was happy, so he laughed fiercely: live.”
Listening to Hikaru, Rakan was happy, so he laughed fiercely: ‘Hahaha… Hikaru, you are too stupid. If I’m still alive, at least I will have a chance to take revenge.’
Suddenly, Aiko appeared from the woods in the background. She walked to Hikaru’s side, and looked coldly at Rakan.
Rakan was startled: “Aiko? You… why are you here?”
“Why can’t I be here?” Aiko’s voice was no longer meek instead it was extremely chilly.
“I didn’t think you’d think that way about me, Rakan.”
Rakan gritted his teeth, he never thought that Aiko would be nearby. He knew for sure that Aiko also heard everything he said.
Rakan smiled disdainfully: “That’s right. To me, you are nothing more than a whore. You will go to whoever offers you the most benefits.”
“Do you feel ashamed? Do you feel like your self-esteem has been trampled? Hahaha… if you felt that way then you wouldn’t have betrayed me.”
Hikaru now spoke up: “Okay. Rakan, like I said, I will give you a chance to live. However…”
He said while caressing Aiko’s face: “Whether you live or die will be decided by Aiko.”
