Chapter 90: "Run Plan"

Because of his sharp instincts and also an attitude of vigilance with the surrounding environment. Anton managed to find an anomaly, and he immediately hid in the innermost bunker, in a matter of seconds before a small Hurricane shrouded the entire area.

When he checked the surveillance camera that was at the entrance, and realized that the camera had been tampered with by someone, Anton immediately broke out in a cold sweat on the spot.

Plus the energy alert Hore that continued to spike drastically through the energy metering that was on the outer door in the bunker, made him obediently wear a protective suit to protect his own body.

Indeed, bringing other people into his hiding place was the worst decision he had ever made.

Nothing was good when they were around him.

The reason why Anton decided to contact Devil was to check the outside area.

Although a few hours ago Hore energy reactions started to gradually decrease. Anton still didn't dare to go out, and he decided to look for other alternatives to check the current condition of his shelter.

Devil is the best choice.

He himself has a special bunker that he hides in case a disaster like this really happens inside the shelter he created. But, what about Devil?

How could they survive the tremendous Hore energy?

Hore energy density itself is already included in the top class Catastrophe according to energy density.

No, a more appropriate question is, are they still alive?

This question had now been answered by Devil extremely hoarse voice.

"I'm fine... Just... little tired..."

Even though Anton wanted to ask if he knew why Catastrophe had suddenly happened in his underground shelter, or how the two of them had managed to live, where they were now hiding, all those questions were immediately drowned in his throat.

"Ah, did I disturb your sleep? Want to rest at my place?"

Damn, you good person!

Anton cursed himself.

"It's okay, I couldn't sleep this time. Anton, can you help me to reveal some of your escape routes to me? I know you have some."

As a very vigilant and conscientious person, it was fitting that he had many escape routes. The weak rabbit has three holes, so what about himself as a wise man? Hum! The whole corner of the tunnel is a rabbit hole cave!

Although this was a bit of an exaggeration, the fact that he actually had multiple escape routes, wasn't wrong at all.

It is just...

Anton sensed something wasn't right.

There seems to be a problem on their side? Why suddenly ask for an escape route? Was this Catastrophe also their doing? By the way, where is Luna, why hasn't she made a sound since then?

As if aware of Anton's concern. Devil on the other hand, started explaining it to Anton.

"The energy storm Hore earlier was indeed my fault… I've drawn a very strong enemy... Sorry to trouble you..."

"I guarantee they won't bother you again after I leave this place. Please... Help me."

Hearing Devil voice that is getting weaker, like lost, and very helpless. Anton also didn't know how to deal with this rootless end of the rope.

All he could do now was stay the same as before.

"I trust you."

No matter how annoying and how depraved you are. I will still trust you.

He didn't know why he trusted this new person so much, maybe because of his daughter? Or because of the demon mask that smiled widely but had a sad face in it? Or because all his actions so far have been very sincere?

Maybe everything is right.

Damn, being a good person is so hard. No wonder his sister said being a psychiatrist was a short-lived job for him.

I'm really a good person.

"...Thank you."

Received information, that there was a hidden slide that can led him out, and was able to find an ancient elevator that took him to the surface within the castle. Linc wasted no time, and started rushing over there.

The enemy has found his location. Coupled with the vassal chip that could share collective consciousness with fellow users according to Delta, he already knew that hiding in this place wasn't safe at all.

His hiding place has been revealed.

But on this whole island, where is the safe place? Where?

The answer is...

Nothing.

There really was no difference whether to continue hiding here or hiding somewhere else.

He had to find the initiative.

Find Fusia, or at least go to the subway station she referring to.

These two options are the most reliable way to get out of this cursed island. At least there is hope.

It was just that he didn't know if this hope would torture him more deeply, or actually provide the reinforcements he wanted.

He really didn't know.

"Hmm...~..."

"Sleep... Sleep well..."

Sing a song in a soft voice. Luna who was holding Linc's shirt tightly relaxed slightly, and she leaned her head against Linc's chest gently.

Judging by the density of her eyes, and the sweat on her forehead, she seemed to be having a nightmare.

"...."

Linc continued on his way.

He also had nightmares. The only difference between the two of them was that Luna had nightmares in her sleep, while Linc had nightmares in the real world.

Only that.

"Welcome back!"

Curl up, and slightly back away. Luna broke a few flower stalks that she stepped on, and she looked at all her older sisters with frightened eyes.

Luna was completely clueless at first. She thought, everything her older sister did was for herself.

But, what about now?

What's with the story of the knight and princess turning so drastically into something so painful as this?

She didn't know much, but she knew that most of the trouble she had in the real world was her big sister's fault!

That's why even though Luna was very sleepy when she was hugged by the devil, she really couldn't sleep.

She didn't want to see her older sister again.

They are very scary.

"Don't come close..."

Saw Luna huddled in the corner with tears on her face, like a little milk cat who was mistreated. No.323 could only helplessly smile.

No.322 stepped forward to replace No.323. they are all collective consciousness that has been integrated into one identity. Using another body only serves a purpose like changing clothes.

At least this eased the fear Luna was currently experiencing when she saw No.323.

"Ah, hello... How about talking to you sister? Sister has a lot of snacks here."

Luna's body shook, shivering in fear.

"Luna just wants dad."

"Luna want back."

She was really scared.
