“I…” Beatrice mustered up favonovel.com courage to look at favonovel.com before running off to the back.
‘You jerk! You heartless jerk! I don’t want to see you ever again!’ favonovel.com cried in favonovel.com heart, running far away. Suddenly, favonovel.com bumped into someone. It was Alex.
Using Instant Teleportation, favonovel.com blocked favonovel.com path. “What are you doing?” Alex asked, narrowing his eyes.
“I… Didn’t you tell me to get lost? Do you want me to crawl or something?” Beatrice started tearing up.
“Did I?”
“Don’t try to talk your way out of this…”
Before favonovel.com could even finish favonovel.com sentence, Alex embraced favonovel.com tightly and ran miles away.
Beatrice couldn’t adapt to his erratic change in attitude.
“What are you trying to do? You told me to get lost, then hugged me for no reason. I’m not your toy, I…” She was once again frozen in place as three people rushed over towards them. They were all wearing dog masks, so they were obviously up to no good.
‘Wait, so I misunderstood?!’
‘He wasn’t talking to me after all! Ugh, you dummy! Be clearer with your words!’
At the time, Beatrice felt favonovel.com cheeks burning up, and favonovel.com could not look anyone directly in the eye.
In order to divert favonovel.com awkwardness, favonovel.com immediately yelled at the group. “What are you three trying to do? Pretending to be dogs in broad daylight?”
“We don’t have any treats for you, so buy it yourself from the supermarket! If you don’t have the money, then look for your master, not us.”
‘Damn b*stards! They made me cry over nothing!’
“Good dogs will stay in place, but those that don’t are bad. Their annoyed owners would kick them out, and they’d be homeless.”
These masked people were standing in three different points, surrounding the two.
One of them said, “Mr. Rockefeller, we mean no harm.”
“No harm?” Beatrice chimed in. Then why are you acting like you have rabies? Take your damn dog masks off. Are you that scared of showing your face, huh? You don’t even have the right to talk to us.”
Another person took a glance at Beatrice. “Don’t say such harsh things, little lady, or men wouldn’t like you. You should know this. If you don’t know basic human decency, men around you might get disgusted, even if they don’t tell it to your face.”
The masked person turned out to be a woman.
Beatrice opened favonovel.com mouth slightly, but favonovel.com glanced at Alex and dared not yell at them anymore.
“Sure, we should be decent to friends, but I don’t think our decency extends to our enemies. Yelling is a gracious gesture. I prefer killing, to be honest.” Alex said.
He then continued. “You people have been following us for quite a while. So tell me, what do you want?”
The first person spoke up again. “You have misunderstood us, Mr. Rockefeller, we are not your foes. We are very impressed that you were willing to share your Divine martial arts with the public too!”
“We came here to invite you to join our organization, the Supreme Protectors, as you have met our requirements.”
Alex raised an eyebrow. ‘Met your requirements? You’re making it sound like you need to assess my powers and see if I’m strong enough to join.’
“I don’t care what organization you are from, I’m simply not interested. Don’t follow me anymore. Goodbye.” Alex rejected their offer straight to their faces.
“Mr. Rockefeller, aren’t you being a little too rash here? You don’t even know anything about our organization, yet you just refused us without hesitation!” the woman stressed.
Alex chuckled coldly. “I said I’m not interested. Are you going to make me join by force? What is this? Some Ponzi scheme?”
The woman replied. “You said it yourself just now that a strong otherworldly being will come to Earth and pose a threat. We Supreme Protectors aim to protect the Earth. Since you’re a Supreme yourself, you should lend a hand. Join us, and you will be able to use your powers to their maximum potential.”
“I told you… I’m not interested!” Alex said and embraced Beatrice, immediately leaving.
‘What kind of Supreme Protectors? Are they like that bull hom guy? What can they even do?’
However, favonovel.com was stopped once again.
One of the three spoke up again. “If you insist on not joining our organization, Mr. Rockefeller, we won’t try to convince you any further.”
“But I hope you can hand us the complete version of Ksitigarbha’s Ten Wheels Earth Incantation and the Requiem Clock. These are treasures of our planet, so if you refuse to help protect it, you should hand it to those who will.”
