The Undying Mecha Emperor-Chapter 37 Your Job Isn’t Finished Yet
"Really, Emma. You're such a useless girl. Why the old man keeps you around him is a complete mystery to us all. He must be becoming senile in his old age." The beautiful girl shook her head in mock sadness.
"He is such a sucker for your fake ass smiles and all your pathetic sucking up. You're such a bitch, you know that Emma? You should have just died in the kidnapping. Why do you even bother surviving and coming back?"
My heart bristled at her words. What vicious words from such a beautiful girl! 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗novel.𝐜o𝒎
At the same time, I also realized why Emma's words are so sharp sometimes. She must have suffered a lot under the verbal torture of her cousins and a little bit of that viciousness had somehow made its way into her own words.
"She's just like a cockroach that wouldn't die. The day she came to this world must be the worst day in the history of our clan. Why God? Why curse our clan with an existence such as this wretched girl?" The handsome boy said woefully.
My hand twitched slightly as I held back my urge to punch his face.
? "Self-control. Self-control." I told myself. "You're a guest afterall. You can't go around punching that old man's descendents."
"Hey Jen, hey Joseph! Guess what grandfather gave him?" Emma said in a bright and excited voice. "A gold token! Can you believe it? The final gold token that everybody was hoping to get actually went to him! Grandpa is so generous! We're just about to go down to the training room to bind it!"
My jaw dropped.
"Emma that little firecracker! Just as I was feeling rather sympathetic for her...
She's trying to throw me into a fight with those two teenagers!" I thought incredulously to myself.
"Justin, show them your gold token!" Emma said excitedly and winked at me. Although her friendliness was utterly fake, I sensed that her excitement was real.
I shook my head helplessly and sighed. She probably wanted to borrow my tougher-than-steel body to teach her cousins a lesson.
"Fine. I will do it for you this once." I thought to myself as I produced the gold token and put on a fake excited smile as well.
"Hey big bro and big sis! Look! Grandpa gave me this Whitefrost Gold Token! Isn't it beautiful? He said that it is extremely valuable! I wonder how much I could get if I try and sell this in an auction?" I said brightly as I waved the token in front of their faces.
The two of them immediately stared at the gold token on my hand with hungry expressions. Their nostrils flared lightly and I could hear their hearts begin to beat faster.
"Heh heh heh heh. Joseph. What do you think?" Jennifer asked slightly breathlessly. Her pupils were already dilating in excitement and I could sense her muscles tensing and coiling. She was preparing for action.
I was no fighter, but my years as a junkyard scrapper taught me how to read people. I knew at that moment that an attack was imminent.
"I think it's finders keepers." Joseph's eyes glinted with greed. "I don't think anyone would mind if we 'found' it on the floor after having a quick spar with our guest."
"Excellent. My thoughts exactly!" Jennifer smirked.
Emma chuckled with satisfaction. Both her prey had fallen for the trap hook, line and sinker. She daintily took a step back to stay clear of the action that was definitely going down very soon.
Jennifer and Joseph glanced at each other and nodded slightly before exploding into action together.
Jennifer sent a powerful right hook towards me while Joseph bent low and executed a low reverse roundhouse kick.
"Hey big bro! Big sis! What are you doing!" I wailed like a chicken being feathered alive as I deftly avoided their attacks. "Why are you attacking me? What did I do? Did I make you angry by waving the gold token too close to your faces?"
Whoosh! Jennifer's straight right missed my face by the barest of margins!
Whoosh! I spun lightly and avoided Joseph's powerful axe kick!
"This villager is pretty good at dodging." Jennifer sneered as she unleashed a series of high speed jabs at my face.
I quickly ducked to avoid them.
"Big sis! Why? Why are you attacking me? Are you sad that you didn't get a Gold Whitefrost Token?" I wailed innocently.
WHAM!!
I parried Joseph's savage flying back kick with my left arm. ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m
"Big bro! You too? Are you really and totally broken hearted that you didn't get a Gold Whitefrost Token as well? Are you sad? Are you really, really sad? Do you want a lollipop to take the edge off?" I shouted and offered him a lollipop generously.
Emma snickered loudly when she heard me use the exact same words she used on me earlier.
BLOCK!
I lifted my right leg to block Jennifer's ferocious kick!
"Big sis! I have a lollipop for you too! Don't be jealous!" I shouted.
"Shut up!" Jennifer screamed.
"Big bro! Big sis! Don't be so sad! I'm sure you'll get another chance to get a gold token! Work hard for it! Persevere! Don't give up! Maybe in forty to fifty years, you'll get a gold token for yourselves!" I encouraged them loudly.
"KYAAA! This low life is pissing me off!" Jennifer screamed and unleashed a powerful roundhouse kick at me!
I threw myself forwards and downwards to avoid her kick.
And smashed straight into Joseph's uppercut.
BAM!!! CRACK!
"UWAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" A shrill and girly scream sounded from Joseph as the bones in his hand cracked upon impact with my face.
"Uh oh. I think the game is up." I sighed and glanced at Emma who had a wide and satisfied smile on her face. She looked really pretty smiling that way.
"Joseph!!" Jennifer cried out as she rushed to his side.
I raised my eyebrow slightly at Emma as though asking her, "Happy?"
Emma gave me two thumbs up and jerked her head towards the two. "Your job isn't finished yet." She seemed to say.
