Chapter 87
"I apologize for my rude behavior." After a few minutes, the girl in a thin jacket stood up and apologized with a slight bow.
"I am not the one you should be apologizing. She is." Mike pointed his finger at Jenny who was slowly approaching them. When she heard Mike's words, her movement froze. The girl in a thin jacket also froze for a while but still apologized "I am really sorry. I shouldn't have spoken those words."
"Haha! Don't mention it! After all, it's my fault for not controlling him." Jenny shook her head as she approached Mike and cling to his arms. But suddenly, her expression froze for a moment.
"Hey, don't say that. If you try to control me, how can I flirt with other girls?" Mike made an innocent expression and spoke.
"Bang"
"Shut up!" Jenny gave him a deathly glare while stomping on his foot. But hurriedly she realized her mistake and turned around with Mike. But before leaving, she turned back at Alice. She took out a card from her dimensional ring and gave her "This is his number. You can confess him at any time you want."
She also winked at her and then looked at Brown "You should leave first. I don't think other humans would be happy to see you guys here."
(A/N- Jenny's voice is like Nami from One Piece)
Saying so, she dragged Mike who was on the verge of collapsing.
"She is right. We should leave." Brown took a deep breath and spoke. Others nodded at his words and turned around. Suddenly, Jerry spoke "Hey Brown!"
Brown turned back while Jerry continued "That guy was really going to kill Nero, isn't he?"
Hearing his words, the girl in a thin jacket got frightened and started shaking with fear. Brown released a deep breath and said "Of course he was. If it wasn't for something that changed his mind, he would've broken her neck."
"Why was he so stupid? He knows if he does that I would've killed him." Jerry looked at Mike's whose muscles were slowly tearing apart and blood was gushing out. He could clearly see Mike's condition from a glance.
"That's what you call love, idiot." Finally, they slowly walked away. Alice helped Nero who was still shaking in fear.
"Brown, have you ever loved someone?" Jerry asked while walking away.
"Yeah, but she doesn't love me." Brown nodded his head with a bright smile on his face.
"Huh! How is that love? Isn't love a relationship between male and female?" Jerry asked in a confused tone while looking at Brown's face. He couldn't understand why Brown was smiling so brightly.
"The love you know is just a trade. True love is freedom. When you truly love someone, you don't expect to be loved back. That is the love I know. Hahaha!" Brown laughed while imagining an image of a beautiful girl in his mind.
"Are you sure that you call this love not because you got rejected by her?" Jerry looked at him with an innocent tone and asked.
"Of course not, you idiot. I haven't even confessed to her. I think I am still not strong enough to bear the responsibility of her." Brown spoke with a deep thirst for strength in his face.
Jerry looked at his serious face and asked "Hey Brown!"
"What is it?" Brown asked
"If I help you get stronger, can you...…. Can you teach me how to love someone?" For a moment, everyone froze.
"Alice, I told you not to make that wine. All of us are drunk now." Brown completely ignored Jerry and yelled at Alice.
Gulp!
Alice swallowed her saliva and shuttered "So—rry Brown! I will not make anything like that ever again."
"Geez! That wine sure was hard. I thought I could drink any kind of wine without getting any fuzzy but I was wrong. That wine is surely messing with my hearing." Brown released a deep sigh and spoke.
"Brown, DON'T ACT IN FRONT OF ME!" Jerry lifted his leg and smashed on Brown's feet.
"Ouch! Cold-type guy, you are confusing us with your words. How could you expect to believe those crazy words? Ahh! Technically, these words are pretty common. But, it's not freaking common coming from your mouth."
"You spent your entire childhood in training even though your talent was way above all. So, how could you expect to believe what you just said?" Brown looked at his seriously pissed-off face and shouted.
"Because those words literally came out from my mouth." Jerry clenched his fist, raising them with angry expressions, and shouted.
"For your information, I was not looking at your face. And, don't you know seeing is believing? But even if I saw those words coming out of your mouth for the first time, I wouldn't believe it." Brown rebuke but he didn't show an angry expression. He instantly changed into gentlemen, calm and compose.
"Brown, would like you to eat my fist? Because if you want, I can shoot thousands in your mouth." Jerry got more and more pissed with his words. His fist veins trembled with anger and blood boiled.
"I'm really sorry but I am not fisttarian." Brown took a step back and shook his head in a composed stance. But his expression changed slightly as he asked "But, I don't understand. Why would you be so interested in love all of sudden?"
Hearing his question, Jerry's expression sank as he buried his head down. After a short silence, he spoke "Because I felt a strong sense of jealousy when I saw what he did. When he looked at me from the beginning to Nero's interruption, he was trying to avoid me. I could see fear in his eyes. If you compare two points when he talked with me during our first interaction and when he talked to me while holding Nero."
"You can say the former interaction was purely based on intellect while the latter interaction was purely based on feelings and Will. But between these situations, he was much more dangerous and powerful in the second one. I just don't understand why?"
"Hush!" Brown released a long sigh after that he got silent. Everyone walked towards the spaceship
...............…
"Are you going to answer me or not?" Until they reached the spaceship, nobody spoke. Finally, Jerry lost his patience and shouted.
"You are really an impatient one, aren't you?" Brown sighed again and turned at him. Suddenly, his face straightened with a serious expression as he spoke "It's the power of love."
"Don't give me crap like that! Every power has its own source. I don't understand love but I know it's just a feeling that you can have for something or someone." Jerry's eyebrows twitched as he shouted.
"Alright, alright! Don't get violent! I will tell you the reason but you have to promise me something." Brown made a helpless look but soon changed into a composed expression like a gentleman and spoke.
"What is it?" Jerry asked
"Give me Taylor's personal number." Brown leaned near him and whispered in his ear.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Ahh! U cn't bt me lk ts (You can't beat me like this)." After a series of punches, Brown stood in front of Jerry with a swollen face. There were several potatoes wounds grown on his head. This was the only situation where potato grows above something.
"If you dare to have dirty thoughts about my sister, I will beat the crap out of you." Jerry raised his fist and spoke with a frightening tone. In his family, the person he loves most is his sister. Then, his mother and finally his father.
Father POV 'Bastard, I am one of two important factors of your birth. Why am I at the last place?'
Alice and Nero's POV 'Jerry really loves his sister the most, doesn't he? Unfortunately, she is blood-related and he is a complete fool about love. There is no way they will together.'
Alkiwon's Boys POV 'Thank you very much, Brown! If it wasn't for you, Jerry would've slaughtered us. Thanks for your sacrifice. This made us realize never to hit the idea on Taylor.'
............…..
"Alright, since you want to know why that guy gave you such a dangerous feeling, I will tell you. Still, you will eventually learn more about it." After few minutes, Brown wounds completely disappeared and he sat on a broken boulder.
Others settled around him. He gave them deadly frightening eyes and spoke "What I am about to tell you might shock you but it is true. Ten Million Years ago, Universe was just a normal world where creatures were unaware of other races throughout the universe. For them, one planet was an entire world."
"Until a group of people rose from adversity. This adversity was none other than the army of another universe. It said that there was a huge chunk of Primordial Chaos Energy Core between two universes. These people are the reason why we were able to evolve."
"These people fought against the creatures from another universe, took the Primordial Chaos Energy Core at the center of the universe, and scattered it. Once the universe evolved by the Primordial Chaos Energy, they established rules and cultivation realms for other evolved creatures to follow."
"But, they soon found the difference in our universe and their universe was massive. Even though these people could fight against them, everyone will be slaughtered if all people from another universe arrive here. That universe had a hundred times more population than ours."
"This is why they developed Ascending to Godhood. This game is not just a normal game. In fact, even with our racial authority, we have only unlocked sixty percent of its features. As for the humans from earth, they only have forty percent authority; EXP and Status Function, Inventory Function, Quest and Dungeon Function, and Guild Function."
"Don't you find it a little strange why they have forty percent authority even though they just awakened two hundred years ago? Not to mention, they haven't made a huge contribution to the universe. Actually, it's not hard to guess. This is the same treatment that you get from the family."
"Geniuses are treated with respect while common people have to earn it. But, what exactly makes them so special? Is it innate ability? No, because the highest rank they can awaken is measly an S-Rank. So, what makes them special?"
(A/N: So, what makes them special?)
