My Angelic System-Chapter 138 Sparks
'I don't understand. Why is everyone infected already?' Kye thought while he was cleansing people. 'There hadn't been a single person who hadn't been infected since the beginning of the operation. Did they manage to multiply by themselves in such a short amount of time? Or were they all dispatched simultaneously, and thus had all the time they wanted to infect everyone?'
The amount of zaionistazer was indeed not something normal. After all, they were noticed not so long ago of the existence of such monsters and immediately prepared themselves to eradicate them. And yet all the students were already infected.
'No, I shouldn't think like this.' Kye thought as he put another monster in the jar. 'They must have been there for a long time. Then does that mean that there's a traitor in the military? It wouldn't make sense that those little insects came here on their own. But it wouldn't make sense either that the military hadn't spotted any monsters bringing them.'
'Then it only means that there is a traitor among the staff. Or... Argh, I don't know anymore. There are so many possibilities. It could be humans, monsters, angels, or even demons for all I know.' He started to get a headache because of all the thinking.
He could think as much as he wanted, but in the end, he couldn't find any answers. And even if he did, it wasn't as if he could change anything. In this situation, he should focus on what he could do instead of what he couldn't.
'Argh seriously, why am I so dumb?' Kye sighed as he looked at all the monsters in the jar. 'I could earn so much EXP if I were to kill all those monsters. I'm sure I'll be able to at least gain 2 levels.'
He looked at the guard by his side before shaking his head. He shouldn't kill all the monsters he had collected now. They would be useful to humans as they'll have plenty of things to study thanks to all the monsters Kye got them. 'But still, there are almost 50 zaionistazer in the jar already, so killing a few won't be a problem, right?'
As he thought that, Kye decided to change his approach a bit. "Excuse me," Kye called the guard. "I don't think I'll be able to make the monsters come out from the body anymore."
"Oh, it's alright. You should rest for now. You did way much more than the others." He smiled brightly as even he was surprised by how diligently Kye worked.
"No, it's not what I meant." Kye shook his head. The guard has misunderstood him. "I can still go on and cleanse people. But I'll have to kill the monsters as I'm using too much energy to make them come out while cleansing the student and keeping the monsters alive."
It was of course a lie. It didn't matter to Kye as he could still make them come out as he wished. But if he wanted to earn EXP, he needed to lie a little. And he wouldn't stop what he was doing for nothing in the world. It was a good occasion to train his holy power and increase his mastery over it.
'Did I become a training freak?' Kye thought as the guard finally replied to him.
"Oh, I see what you mean now." He nodded his head. "Of course, you don't have to worry about that. The priority in this operation is to save everyone, studying the monsters comes after. And you already provided us with plenty of samples, so please don't worry about such a thing."
"Yes, thank you." Kye smiled brightly at the guard. The latter was quite nice to him, thus he was glad as it changed from what happened usually.
'I guess that my increased level has changed a few things in the end.' It was hard to believe as people were still 'bullying' him. But it was much less than before.
And it gave him a little bit of hope as previously, he had a hard time even believing in people. Whereas now, he had a lot of friends and wasn't alone anymore.
"I guess things truly changed."
"What did change?" Yugo who was the one being treated asked.
"Huh?" Kye didn't expect to think out loud.
"Seriously you were so deep in thought that you didn't even see your friend coming. I'm hurt." Yugo jokingly made a pained expression. But he didn't expect to see Kye hug him the moment he said that. "W-what are you doing?"
"I missed you guys, obviously. I'm starting to get tired of continuously using my holy power." Kye said the last part quietly as Yugo nodded.
"Yeah, it's good to see you again."
[300 EXP had been earned for killing a Zaionistazer]
"You don't know how worried I was to not see you guys coming." Kye said with a sad expression. He couldn't care less about the sweet EXP, nor all the people he saved. To him, his friends were more important than anything else. And not seeing them being treated started to worry him.
After all, they started the operation for quite a while now, and a lot of students had been cleansed already.
"Thanks for worrying for us," Yugo smiled. It reminded him of the old times. "But none of us have any symptoms for now, so you don't worry too much, okay?" Yugo started to get worried as Kye wasn't raising his head. f𝑟e𝙚𝒘𝗲𝚋𝚗oѵ𝘦𝙡. c𝒐m
"Still... Can't you guys make your way here immediately? You may have been lucky to come here now, but what about the others?"
As Yugo saw the deep worry in Kye's eyes, the former felt a little bad. He couldn't do anything as he wasn't part of the operation.
"Can't you make a portal to bring them here?" Kye asked, worrying deeply.
"I'm sorry to say this, but it'll be seen as an act of aggression if he were to do so." The guard butt in, making Kye click his tongue.
"Would it be seen as an offense if I were to quit my post then?" Kye turned and looked at the guard dead in the eyes. He couldn't care less about the EXP he would get right now. The only thing he had in his head was his friends, and nothing else.
"Kye please calm down." Yugo tried to calm Kye down but it looks like the latter didn't want to.
"Yes, it will be seen as a great offense as even the lieutenant has met you in person. It would even be seen as an act of treason. So don't act rashly." The guard had his hand on the pommel of his sword as he was ready to clash with Kye.
Both of them looked at each other. Yugo could even see sparks appearing between them as if something bad would happen if no one stopped them.
"Treason?" Kye chuckled. "And me who thought that you were different from others. Guess I was wrong." His blue eyes started to glow yellow as the guard felt a shiver down his spine.
'W-why am I scared?' He instinctively took a step back. 'He's just a student. A poor student.'
