Chapter 115: Kill assist
Atlan didn't know why she was so mad all of a sudden. He thought she'd be happy that they finally got to the mansion.
Yasmine had no intention of ever telling Atlan why she was mad. She herself didn't even know why she was angry. Perhaps, she just didn't want to admit it.
Instead of thinking about it further, she opened the door to the 3rd floor and went inside the mansion. Atlan followed behind her, still clueless.
The third floor was full of large rooms and an expansive hallway full of paintings worshiping the Genesis God. Read latest chapters at m_v-l'e|-NovelBin.net
This floor didn't have any guards at all. After all, no one thought that the kids would ever be able to get through from the 3rd floor.
When they reached the staircase that led down to the 1st floor, they immediately heard the sounds and murmurs of soldiers guarding the portal. They carefully put their heads over the railings and peaked at the situation below.
Just as they expected, they stationed the most soldiers near the portal entrance. There were two on each side of the entrance, with five other guards standing near them for support.
Yasmine bit her lips. She didn't know how they were going to get to the portal without having to fight the guards. With her strength and skill, fighting five guards at the same time was no problem at all. However, resisting arrest and harming soldiers warranted an ever bigger punishment if caught.
"We need a distraction," Atlan said. He took out his slingshot and armed it with his condensed soil pellet. He aimed at the priceless vase encased in glass opposite the portal entrance.
The soldiers would be forced to investigate the crashing sound if he hit the vase.
Yasmine wanted to stop him. She never saw Atlan use his slingshot throughout the competition and thought that he was a bad shot. After all, he was a porter with no sniping LifeSkill to help him aim. If he missed and hit a soldier, then he could get in even bigger trouble.
But before she could even utter a single word, Atlan let go of the slingshot and it accurately shot the vase with no deviation at all.
She was left speechless. She saw the pellet thread the needle through a small gap between the soldier's left arm and his body without him even knowing about it.
Atlan acted like this was extremely easy, but Yasmine knew how difficult that was to replicate.
He can subdue Canzers. He can sense soldiers beyond walls. He can use a slingshot like a pro…what more can this guy do?!
The more she spent time with Atlan, the more she was opened up to his talents. It was as if he was good at everything he did! She even felt like the title of 'genius' should be given to him instead.
Her newfound perspective on Atlan was conflicting for her heart. On one hand, she was impressed with his talent and admired him even more for it. However, the competitive blood within her wanted to fight him and prove who was better between them.
Is he a friend or a rival?
"Mine, what are you doing? Let's go!" Atlan took the opportunity and went down the stairs while the soldiers investigated the crashing sound. But when he looked back, Yasmine was still on the third floor.
It took a moment for Yasmine to shake off her thoughts and follow Atlan to the first floor.
The two guards near the portal walked forward, but they didn't take more than a few meters away from the portal.
Yasmine took out her sword and launched a miniature flaming dragon that crashed through the door near the investigating soldiers. The disturbance immediately left them rattled as they took out their batons.
"Is it a Pseudo Canzer?!"
"Keep your eyes peeled!"
"We need reinforcements!"
The two soldiers finally went past their station, which allowed Atlan and Yasmine to sneak past behind them.
However, one of the soldiers thought he heard something from behind him. He immediately whipped his head back, but he saw nothing out of the ordinary.
Meanwhile, Yasmine and Atlan had their bodies incredibly close as they forced themselves inside a locker near the portal.
They had their bodies clasped together. Yasmine could feel Atlan slowing down his breath to stay silent.
The locker got incredibly hot all of a sudden as Yasmine's face turned beet red. She looked up at him and saw that he was also a bit embarrassed.
This was the first time Atlan was so close to a girl before. He could feel it on his chest, her—
Why do I feel it even through armor? Don't think about that right now. I have to focus…
They kept silent, with only their chests heaving up and down. Their breaths exchanged because their heads were so close together, with their noses almost touching.
Outside, one of the soldiers shouted. "What are you doing? They need reinforcements!"
The soldier lingered his eyes on the locker for a second, before turning forward and going towards the other soldiers.
"I'm coming," he said.
After a few seconds, Atlan and Yasmine both walked out of the locker and made their way to the portal.
They stepped foot over the shimmering black liquid portal and finally got back to the real world. They walked out of the Pocket Remedium and into the room where the portal was based.
Thankfully, there were no soldiers here. They safely went out the door and onto the streets.
And just as Atlan was going to relax, he suddenly saw a few words pop up in front of him.
