Apocalypse Chaos - I am the villain

Chapter 39 Even While You Sleep...

?

Velys's face turned red, and very seductive then she said: "Thank you..."

"Call me Laylah, we'll probably see each other more in the future." Laylah smiled as she held out her hand as if to shake hands with Velys.

Velys also hurriedly reached out and grabbed Laylah's hand. At this point, it seemed that in Velys' mind that it had been decided that Laylah would be her ally.

Hikaru stared at the scene in front of him with wide eyes and asked in his heart…

Who am I?

Where is this?

What the hell is going on?

How could Laylah easily make Velys believe in her? It must be known that when the end of the world came, the only person Velys thanked and apologized to was Hikaru.

Now it was different, Hikaru looked at Velys' expression and knew that she had added Laylah to her list of trusted people.

Ack! Of course, Hikaru knew that the list was only him and Laylah.

Could it be… Laylah was able to make Velys easily trust her thanks to the main character's aura?

Hikaru didn't know, he didn't want to think too much. He thought to himself that from now on he needed to stay as far away as possible from Laylah.

Besides, he also needed to remind Velys not to come into contact with Laylah, otherwise… lest he one day be killed by Laylah without realizing anything.

Suddenly he thought of something and asked Rika: "Can I kill the heroines? I mean… Can I kill the members of the male protagonist's harem?"

[In theory, you can't kill them right now.]

"Why?"

[Because they still have the protagonist's protective aura. If you don't kill the protagonist, which would allow the heroine to become a free character then you can't kill them.]

[If you successfully kill the heroine, there will be another heroine who is stronger, and more badass than the old heroine.]

Hikaru frowned upon hearing that.

Although the current heroines caused him a lot of trouble, they also caused a lot of trouble for the main character.

If there were more badass heroines than the current heroines, he was afraid that the process of killing the main character would be even more difficult.

So… he would allow them to live a little longer. At the very least, these female leads would constantly cause a lot of trouble for the male lead.

Akiko shivered suddenly, she felt as if someone wanted to kill her.

Akiko looked towards Hikaru, and upon seeing his murderous eyes  she became a little scared, but her anger overpowered her fear.

She was about to confront Hikaru again but Laylah stopped her.

"Akiko, don't bother Hikaru, he's not guilty."

"Heh?! Laylah, what the hell are you talking about?" Akiko was surprised, she did not understand what Laylah had just said.

"Like I said, Hikaru has nothing to do with that girl being treated. He really just saw her on the street and saved her."

"Laylah, do you believe his lies?" Akiko shouted angrily.

Laylah shook her head: "Did you hear that the doctor just now said that girl lost her tongue?"

Akiko suddenly jumped as if realizing something, then she arduously nodded.

"That proves that she was captured by the Gray Wolf. Those who were kidnapped by him all had their tongues cut off, I think you know that, don't you?"

Akiko glanced at Hikaru with angry eyes, then continued to nod.

At this point, Delmor suddenly spoke up: "Excuse me… but I'm afraid Hikaru can simulate the same murder method you just talked about?"

Laylah looked at Delmor, this time his eyes were calm, and they were not as greedy  before.

She could even see that his eyes were filled with admiration and purity as if there weren't any dark thoughts inside his head.

If any other girl saw Delmor's eyes right now, she would be certain that he was a good person.

But Laylah was different, she was not a female lead in a series intended for male readers. She was the female lead in a series aimed at female readers.

Those were two completely different concepts.

At this point, Laylah only felt doubtful. That's right, it seemed that what Delmor showed was not in her calculations.

Laylah hoped for someone who could look at her with pure eyes, without any dark thoughts.

Now, what appeared in Delmor's eyes was the same as what Laylah thought.

Very interesting…

Laylah shook her head and explained, "It's a secret police document, Hikaru can't possibly know that. Besides… are you eavesdropping on my conversation?"

Laylah's questioning gaze startled Delmor. He just wanted to speak his mind, he did not think that his words made Laylah uncomfortable.

"No… I just…" Delmor stammered…

At this point, Akiko immediately spoke up: "But what about Delmor's problem? He was injured by Hikaru, is he innocent?"

Laylah smiled and took out her phone, then played a video. Seeing the video Laylah opened, Delmor suddenly felt a sense of unease.

In the video is a picture of a small cafe with quite a few people. A young man suddenly stood up and approached one or two other people.

That young man was Delmor, the two people sitting there were Hikaru and Velys.

It could be recognized that this is a video recorded by a surveillance camera in a cafe, however, there was no sound in the video.

It could be seen that Delmor was angry, as he was shouting at Hikaru. Then, he reached out and grabbed Hikaru's shoulder as if he wanted to hit Hikaru.

The next things everyone knows, there was no need to say much.

Laylah took out the phone, smiled and said: "Akiko, if you look at the situation as seen in the video, Hikaru can only be accused of being too self-defensive."

"The real troublemaker is Delmor. You didn't have time to find out the reason before jumping to conclusions… that's a bit wrong, Akiko."

Akiko gritted her teeth, and clenched her fists as if she was extremely angry and resentful.

Laylah now looked at Delmor: "You're only slightly injured, besides... you were injured at 5pm and you've already bandaged it."

"Now why did you come here to bandage the wound again, what are you trying to prove?"

Delmor took a deep breath when he heard that, he felt like Laylah could read his entire mind.

"I…" Delmor wanted to explain something, but he didn't know how.

All he could say was, "I just wanted to rescue Velys."

"Velys? What's wrong with her?"

"Of course, Hikaru seduced her, I can't just stand by and watch my friend get tricked. That's why I got angry."

Laylah heard that and nodded: "Oh! So… Now that Velys is here, we can talk to her. If she is really forced or tricked, I can help her."

"If Velys disagrees… then I fear you will face charges of slander."

Delmor swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he did not think that things would turn out to be this troublesome.

Would Velys help him?

The answer was no. If Velys really wanted to help him or she was tricked by Hikaru, things wouldn't be as troublesome as they are now.

Delmor sighed and shook his head, "Sorry… I… was a little angry at the time, so I couldn't control myself."

He thought it over carefully, he didn't want things to get more complicated. Besides… he didn't want Velys to hate him any more.

That's why this story needed to end. Delmor knew that he would have many more chances to meet Velys in the future, if he gets a chance, he would show Velys clearly what kind of person Hikaru is.

Laylah smiled and nodded: "Good! Everything has been resolved…"

"It hasn't!" Akiko shouted again, her eyes filled with disapproval: "One more problem, he is suspected of using a gun to injure another person."

"Ah!" Laylah seemed to understand: "Don't worry, I have asked my superiors to investigate. From tomorrow, I will monitor Hikaru for more information."

"Rest assured, Akiko."

"Follow Hikaru? Okay! We'll be watching him tomorrow, I don't believe we can't find any evidence against him."

Laylah shook her head: "No way! Only I have the right to spy on him, Akiko, you have another mission tomorrow."

"What?! Impossible! I don't want to!" Akiko immediately objected.

"Give me a reason for you to continue on this mission, Akiko… You didn't have time to investigate, you rushed to the conclusion, and almost caught the wrong person."

"If Hikaru wanted to, he could have accused you of abusing your position for personal revenge. Not only that, what you did will affect the reputation and honor of Team 7."

"Akiko, you cannot continue any quest related to Hikaru. This is an order."

Hearing Laylah's words, Akiko seemed to sink into the abyss. She could only nod with difficulty, then left.

As she passed Hikaru, she turned her head, looked at him with her eyes as if she wanted to cut him into a hundred pieces, Akiko's angry voice resounded: "Don't be happy, Hikaru. I swear I'll find  evidence and put you in jail."

"I swear I'll put you in jail until you die."

Hikaru smiled and replied, "I hope you can do this, police for justice, Akiko."

His voice was filled with teasing which made her even angrier. But after saying that, Akiko left angrily, not wanting to talk to him much.

Hikaru did not turn his head to look at Akiko, nor did he notice her words.

If he could kill Akiko, she'd be dead the moment she pointed the gun at him.

Akiko, you don't have to worry either. Wait until I exhaust Tadashi's value, then you can die in peace.

Until then, I will make you feel that death is your release.

Delmor saw Akiko leave and didn't want to stay long, no, to be more precise, he didn't want to be near Laylah either.

This girl was so horrible, she seemed to be able to read his mind. What's scarier is that this girl seemed to be protecting Hikaru.

That's right, her every decision and word was protecting Hikaru.

That's why he could only leave.

Akiko and Delmor left, and Hikaru breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he wasn't afraid of those two, he just didn't want to be in trouble all the time.

Wait! Speaking of trouble, this place still had a huge problem.

He frowned and asked, "Laylah, did you say you'll be watching me from tomorrow?"

"That's right!" Laylah laughed and said, "Didn't I tell you earlier? Besides… I got a decision from my superiors. From tomorrow, I can monitor you 24/7."

"Even while you sleep, I have to watch over you. Ah! At that time, I wouldn't mind sleeping in the same bed with you..."

Hikaru: "..."
