Chapter 72 - [Bonus ] Too Fast



"Argh… no, I\'m not here for that but I still think you\'re cute though when you\'re angry." Joren lightly laughed as his chest was slightly caved in him while his two forearms have been thoroughly crushed.

Allecto was speechless due to both the reasons that Joren could still talk in his situation and also, to still call her cute after all that.

"Don\'t… don\'t think I\'m that naive!"

She shouted before flusteredly rolling her eyes away. It took a moment before she raised her fist and threatened.

"Don\'t make me any angrier, you\'re not my target."

"But how is Nebarius your target then?" Joren asked which makes sense in the big picture, "Is there a need to kill him?"

\'Is he seriously trying to protect Nebarius?\'

Not just Allecto but others as well were confused by this. They couldn\'t understand Joren at all. Not only did he interact with Nebarius far shorter than anyone else in the palace, but Nebarius himself also looks at Joren with contempt.

Even if Joren doesn\'t see this, there\'s no reason to put his life on the line for someone he barely knew.

"Or, do you think that you wouldn\'t die just becuase you\'re an undead?"

"...?"

Joren hasn\'t thought of that and his expression has already answered Allecto\'s question.

What creature is this!?

They all thought before the ten-minute mark was finally reached. Realizing this, Hades announced after some slight delay due to him trying to understand Joren.

However, even after some thinking, he could not. It reminds him of \'foolish\' beings that risk their lives for the sake of others. But at the very least, that \'others\' are important to them.

They felt alienated from Joren.

"Why?"

Allecto was left with one question, not frustrated by the fact that she failed to finish Nebarius off. That was not the original point anyway. Her anger had ceased and a question began to plague her mind.

Are humans always like this? Or, is Joren unique even to his own kind?

"Haven\'t I explain already…?" Joren\'s energy was fading away as he tried to fight off losing consciousness. What he received is fatal, after all.

"No, I remember what you said, but why, why would you feel the need to risk your life over someone you barely even know?"

Allecto stated what the Hades family have been thinking about.

"Do you do that to everyone you know?"

"Do you think you\'re a hero?"

"How did you manage to live that long if that\'s who you are?"

All these questions came out of Allecto since Joren have become the most mysterious being that she had known. It just sounds so stupid and naive. Completely unnecessary.

Joren put up his hand to stop Allecto\'s questioning. But it fell off as blood spurted out.

"Ah…"

He hunched to pick it up but his other arm also fell off.

"I\'ll… go back to that later." Joren gave up before he looked at Allecto and asked, "To answer all your questions, all I can say is, I don\'t know. Stop asking and shut up."

"Shut… up?"

All those who heard it muttered.

"I\'m selfish for not thinking about others who might get sad since I\'d rather die doing what I want and that\'s why I\'m not a hero." Joren began wobbling as he barely stand up, "Also, I\'m losing a lot of… blood, I think I\'m getting anemic… but anyway…"

"But anyway…!?"

"I\'m just doing my best…"

Joren\'s eyes then rolled up as he fell onto the ground.

Allecto looked down on him and squinted her eyes before she kicked his unconscious body.

"Do you think you\'re a saint?"

"Argh…! Have some conscience, I\'ve retired already!" Joren barked back but couldn\'t do anything about it as he landed after being sent flying away by Allecto\'s kick.

"I don\'t care, how dare you tell me to shut up, lesser undead!?" Allecto went near him and continued to kick him, "So, do you still think I\'m cute!? Huh!?"

"Sure… you\'re still… pretty cute…" Joren\'s volume of voice is fading away.

After a while, Allecto stopped her attacks and stood there before picking Joren up, putting him over her shoulder.

"Where… are you bringing him?" Megaera asked Allecto as she walk away.

"And, why are you here? Are you worried about him?"

"Time was up yet you still attacked him, the Lord\'s guest."

Megaera replied with squinted eyes. Allecto\'s face paled upon realization but looking at Hades, it seemed that she was pardoned.

\'He did tell me to shut up, that\'s disrespect no matter how you look at it…\' she thought before disappearing from Megaera\'s sight.

"Ah, that…!"

Noticing that Allecto left her behind without any word, Megaera\'s face twitched in annoyance.

A little while later, Allecto appeared in Joren\'s room. She looked around before closing the door. Putting Joren on the bed, she slit her fingertip and placed it into Joren\'s mouth. Her face expressed anxiety as beads of sweat formed on her forehead.

After some time, Allecto removed her finger and it instantly healed the next moment. At the same time, Joren wildly coughed. An overwhelming sensation entered his body as if he was going to burst at any moment.

He looked at his hands and saw that they were back better than before. This was the first time Joren have experienced this feeling.

Pop*

His arm suddenly exploded before a brand new one came out to replace it. Joren\'s whole body convulsed in pain but noticing that Allecto was looking at him with a nervous expression, he didn\'t utter a groan.

Not long after, the bedsheets and near flooring have been covered in Joren\'s blood.

Huff*

Joren lied down to rest before his eyes darted towards Allecto.

"My blood is too much, huh. Such a waste."

"You saved me after all that beating you made?"

"..." Allecto frowned before she muttered, "You told me to shut up. If I let you scoff free, others will think that anyone can tell me to shut up."

"... ah, I see… I\'ve been thinking a lot lately. Since you are all immortals, Gods have priorities entirely different from us, mortals…"

"Hm, now that you put it in that way, yes. Unlike you mortals who have a second life, we are forever known. Pride and image are two of the most important things for us." Allecto felt relieved that Joren understands her, "You\'re so forgiving."

"Hmm…" Joren hasn\'t heard that in his entire life, \'Am I?\'

"... and understanding…" Allecto continued to mutter.

\'Something is strange… why is she looking at me like that?\' Joren frown since he have only seen this expression when he was making out with Scarlett.

"Joren, umm, as long as you don\'t go against me in public, I will… never harm you again…" Allecto didn\'t say this in her coquettish tone. It\'s obvious that she released her thoughts with difficulty. After what she said, she couldn\'t take it any longer and stood up to leave but her hand was held down, stopping her.

"I understand… but, what\'s the limit when it\'s private?" Joren asked after gulping.

"H-huh?" Allecto was stunned for a while before her face flushed in red, "You\'re so thick-skinned, figure that out yourself!" she stated in anger as she removed Joren\'s hand.

Allecto realized that Joren is not an all-good kind of guy. He make the most use of an advantage when he was given, shamelessly!

\'Can\'t he see that this is already hard for me to be honest!?\' Allecto didn\'t realize that she was having some feminine thoughts. After Joren acted the same way after experiencing her worst, she suddenly found a comfortable place beside him that nobody, not even her sisters, has.

"Are you not afraid that I will take what I said back if you push my limits?"

"For someone who prioritizes image so much, I don\'t think you would take your words back though. So, answer my question, what\'s the limit?" Joren asked with a solemn expression.

Allecto gulped. Joren was right.

"Can\'t you just… figure it out yourself?"

"Then, I\'ll do an experiment." Joren stood up. This was the liveliest state he had ever been in his entire life. Compared to when Virena gave him a drop of blood, Allecto\'s blood is a whole world above.

Joren then took her hand and finger-locked them.

"You…!"

"You\'re not angry?"

"..." Allecto was about to frown but she found, "No…?"

"Then, how about…" Joren then placed his other hand on her waist, "... now?"

Allecto was surprised but she was surprised to find that she was not discomforted by it.

\'W-what is he trying to do? Is it because my blood is too much for him?\'

"Now that I\'m standing so close, it looks like I\'m a bit taller than you. You were so intimidating that I thought the opposite." Joren\'s mouth runoff as his hand went to her cheek from holding her waist.

"Wait… stop right there." Allecto said, fearing what will come next, "You\'re going a little too fast. Don\'t forget, you\'re still a lesser undead. Although I\'m giving you some privileges, that doesn\'t mean-"

But she was shut off when Joren came forward. Allecto froze when their lips touched while her eyes were wide opened.

After some time, Joren removed his lips and smiled.

"I\'ve always wanted to do that from the start," before asking, "So, are you angry?"

Allecto gritted her teeth and flicked her hand, forcibly removing Joren\'s hand. She pointed at him with a frown.

"Do that in public and I will kill you…! I\'m not joking!"

"Alright, alright, I\'ll do it again next time when we\'re in private." Joren unapologetically waved his hands.

Afterwhich, Allecto turned around and before opening the door, she stopped, "Make yourself worthy of me first. Someone might spot us even if we think in we have privacy."

Allecto then opened the door and walked out. The moment the door closed, Joren could fast footsteps outside.

Arriving at her room after running, Allecto dived into her bed as she held her chest, feeling her heart pound against it. She felt a little dizzy and her cheeks getting abnormally warm.

\'Too fast! Too fast! Too fast!...\'
