Chapter 147
Zack was struggling hard with his throat in my grasp, but my fingers didnt budge.
Cough ghrr
Finally seeing fear welling up in the mans eyes, I slightly loosened my grip.
What do I gotta do
Right Im going to need a room, can you get me that?
N-not right away. Ill need a month.
I looked into his eyes as he spoke. He didnt seem to be lying.
I see. Well whatever. Actually, suddenly getting myself a room will make me stand out. I just need a roof over my head is all. Ill sleep in the hallways I guess.
Sure thing. Ill get you a spot
Also, Ill need meals, well balanced meals. If you cant get that, Im afraid I wont need you.
Y-you wont need me?
Nope, not at all.
I tighten my grip momentarily.
Oh, Ok, ok ok! I can do meals, three meals a day, no problemo!
Thanks a bunch. Next info yeah, Ill need that. This place looks like itll be fun. Lots of intrigue.
Ill answer anything I know.
Then, lets talk about our relationship. You said youre with the Doem Camp, yes? I dont want to pick a side just yet. Ill be Trash.
Then I suggest you dont talk to me in public. How am I getting you the food?
Ill have it in this room. I can come in without anyone noticing, so its not an issue.
Sure.
Zack had on an extremely bitter expression.
Yeah, thats enough for now. Ill find you when I need something again.
Yeah, you do that.
I let go of his neck. He sat down and looked up at me while massaging his throat.
Who the hell are you? How come youre this strong when were not supposed to have mana
Who can say
Youre no student. A spy no, someone from the underworld
Perhaps, but would I really reveal that? I said, putting some strength in my gaze.
Tsk Zack tsked and looked away.
Fucking politics whatever, I aint involved, just do whatever you gotta do.
That I will, Mr. Zack. That I will.
Yeah, sure.
I turn my back to the dejected Zack and grab the door handle.
Ah, right. I dont think I need to tell you, but do keep this on the hush hush.
I know.
Just a friendly warning. You see, I honestly dont care if I have to kill you and everyone else in your little Doem Camp I said, momentarily releasing a strong helping of mana and bloodlust.
Wha!? But your manas supposed to be
As if this trinket can seal me I said finally, opening the door and exiting the room.
Fuck me with a sledgehammer. I just had to pick up a freakin monster
Listening in to Zacks muttering from the other side, I did another mental fist pump.
