Chapter 132

Lucky 132

Calix was taken by the terrorists. He didn't know why he was being taken but he followed them anyway. He didn't want to endanger the passengers and he didn't want to hurt Yuna too. He understood that Yuna would kill these terrorists because of what they did to him, but the other way might happen too. Yuna might die instead. So Calix stopped her from attacking them.

Because Calix understood that the terrorists were not ordinary at all. Some of them were Term Attribute Users, furthermore, Calix felt that the lion-masked man was a 2nd Advanced User. Yuna may be hurt if she attacked them. 

She was Lucky but gambling her life for that unknown variable would be a suicide. So Calix was relieved that Yuna stayed still. He had to protect her because that was his role. Welp, he had already taken that role since the first time they had sex. He had to be her man, it was his duty to protect her not the other way around. 

The terrorists inspected his body and they didn't find anything dangerous. They looked at his necklace but they deemed it not dangerous. 

Calix was remembering the passage of the Flying Ship. This ship was big and it almost carried three hundred passengers. 

As Calix entered the storage section, he found that the place was actually wide. 

"Stop."

The lion masked man commanded and the other listened. They stopped and pushed Calix to kneel. They tied his hands to make sure that he won't do anything bad. 

Calix looked at the lion-masked man. 

"Hm, I don't know but it looks like you changed a lot… Or perhaps this is your true representation. After all, even in the past, you will always fight back even if you're hurt. The determination in your eyes will not change no matter how much you suffer. And because of that, I respect you."

The masked man said and Calix's eyes gradually widened. 

"You are…"

"Yes."

The masked man released his mask and showed his face. Calix confirmed his deduction. Now he understood why he knew this voice. 

"Leon… Marianne Francine's bodyguard."

"Hello, Calix."

Leon smirked. 

"How's the scar that my lady gave you?"

"You..."

Leon was one of the trusted bodyguards of Marianne. He was working under her, and sometimes, Marianne would ask Leon to beat Calix. 

Calix and Leon fought at least five times, but Calix always lost, he was suffering from his Backlash so it was inevitable. 

"I'm sorry about that man, I'm just obeying my master. It's just business. No hard feelings, just job-related."

That was what Leon usually said every time he beat Calix. So Leon and Calix had friction one year ago before Marianne graduated. 

"… I didn't know that Marianne will stoop so low."

Calix mumbled, thinking that Marianne was the mastermind. 

"Hm? Ah, I think you made a mistake. I'm not working for Marianne anymore, well it was two hours ago."

Leon shrugged. 

"To be honest, I hate Marianne too. She's always spoiled and she didn't care about her underlings. Don't you know how many times I suffered while working under her? Heck, the only reason why she gave me a vacation is because she killed a Third-class. She's a hateful person."

Leon grumbled. Marianne was the embodiment of a bratty girl. Leon hated her because he suffered too. 

"…"

Calix didn't answer but he could relate. That woman caused him great suffering. He almost died at that last time. 

"Do you know how much I waited for this very moment? I work under her Clan just for this, just to acquire the sacrifice."

"What are you talking about?"

"Hehe, nothing much. You will know it later on… but for now."

Leon grabbed Calix's collar and dragged him against the floor. Calix was stumbling, but he remained calm. Anger would only bring him destruction. His father taught him that he had to be calm if he was in a dangerous situation. 

As they walked further into the storage section, Calix found a huge cage in the corner. 

'It seems like they prepared this for a long time because they even have a cage…'

Now he was further confused about their goal.

'What do they mean about sacrifice?"

He didn't know, but as long as he remain calm and studied the situation, Calix would know the answer. 

However, his thought processing was disturbed when he was dragged into the cage. Leon threw him into the cage and locked him.

But it was not the reason why Calix was disturbed. 

"You..."

He realized that another person was in the cage. A woman with bright blonde hair, blue ocean eyes, and pointy ears was staring at Calix. Just like Calix, the woman was stunned. She rubbed her eyes, quite confused. 

"What are you doing here?"

Marianne asked and Leon started laughing outside the cage. 

"Kuhahaha! Isn't it great, huh, my lady?"

"Leon, you bastard!!"

Marianne cursed and tried to reach him but Leon backed away instead. Her hand reached nothing. 

"Why did you bring him here? What is going on?"

Marianne was mad. She couldn't believe that her bodyguards would betray her, particularly Leon. 

"Isn't it obvious? I'm helping Calix to exact his revenge! Kuhaha!"

Leon liked what he was seeing. This Half-Elf, Marianne Francine, was the thorn in his throat. 

"I found that Calix is taking the same Flying Ship, what a coincidence, right? So I decided to take him to you… Let's see how will you react after what he will do. I know that Calix hates you, I'm sure that he will not hesitate to beat you if he wanted to. I know this, Calix is the type who will hurt a woman once he reached his limitation… So take your time, it's a happy reunion, for me."

Leon smirked and started walking away. The sole reason why he took Calix to the storage room was to bring him to Marianne. Because he witnessed how the poor guy suffered, so helping him to get his revenge was on point. 

"Although I'm going to kill Calix later on. I mean, I will kill all of the passengers once we are finished, so I'm just giving Calix a little bit of happiness before he died."

Leon whispered while having a smile on his face.
