My NTR Harem

Chapter 169: The hunt

"You should drink some water, you look tired," the female driver spoke as she glanced back through the mirror. Her eyes seemed to shine as she saw Lucian's face.

This was the first time that her target was going to be this handsome.

Her body tingled just by the thought of what she was going to do later, even though he could be sold for a high price. But she didn't want to sell him and keep him to herself.

Lucian picked up the bottle and began to drink the water, but it disappeared as soon as it touched his tongue.

After taking a few mouthfuls of water, he placed the bottle down and just looked out of the window.

She drove for a few minutes in silence. Their destination was Peter's house, which was not too far away, so they would soon be at their destination.

Lucian was already quite tired, his eyes seemed half-closed as he sat silently on the back seat. Seeing the drowsiness in his eyes, the driver thought that the drug had started to take effect.

Giggling to herself, she slowly began to turn the car in a direction different from their original route. At this point, she was sure that her plan had almost succeeded.

SHIVER

A shiver ran across the woman's body as she felt the cold blade pressing against her throat. It was so sharp that just by touching lightly, a cut had appeared on her skin, as a drop of blood dragged down her neck.

"W- What?!! S- Sir, what are you doing?" she asked with wide eyes as she almost pressed the brakes in fright but stopped herself since the sword might actually slash her neck accidentally.

She even began to drive more carefully to avoid bumps.

"Don't try anything stupid, or your head will be rolling inside your car, so just continue onto our original route," Lucian spoke. This planet really was the opposite of the original Earth.

"Y-Yes sir, I'm sorry," she spoke hurriedly and then turned the car onto their original route. Her heart was thumping so hard that she felt she might die of a heart attack.

They continued to move in silence. Lucian made the car stop some distance away from Peter's house, then he got off.

The woman drove her car away from there as fast as she could with no thoughts of retribution.

Seeing her go far enough away, Lucian walked towards Peter's house, where Peter was standing in his police uniform in front of his car. It was all instructed by Lucian.

"Sir, where do we need to go?" Peter asked as he saw Lucian walking towards him. He had a big smile on his face as he opened the car door.

"This is our destination." Lucian sent the location to Peter's mobile as he sat in the car.

Lucian sat in the back seat of the car. Then Peter sat in the driver's seat. He didn't ask any more questions as he started the engine and began to drive.

Lucian yawned and rubbed his eyes. Normally, he wouldn't feel tired so easily because of the pill that he had eaten, as it kept releasing energy into his body.

But now, since there was a big injury on his back, all that energy was focused on the wound, and after all that action at home, he felt utterly exhausted.

"Bring me there as soon as you can," Lucian spoke as he began to discuss the matter of the treasure with Zero.

"Yes sir." Peter nodded, then he increased the speed. Thankfully, the streets were still relatively empty.

'Zero, what kind of treasure is it?' Lucian thought in his head, Natasha's fragrance still coming out of his body.

[I am not exactly sure since it is hidden in some way, but unlike the first treasure that you stole from the protagonist, this is one of the critical treasures and will affect the story and the protagonist's growth greatly.

So no matter what, you have to get it. I'll do my best to sense any kind of danger that approaches you.]

'I see, no matter if it is important or not, I would have taken it away from him anyway. But if it really is so important, then even fate might try to stop me.'

Just as Lucian had finished thinking, the sky rumbled, and the weather began to change out of nowhere.

"Sigh, just keep driving and don't worry about anything else. Even if hell breaks loose, do not stop,"

Lucian said, and hearing those words, Peter increased the speed. He could sense that Lucian really needed to go to this place.

Within a few seconds, raindrops began to fall down, and soon, it was raining heavily, making it really difficult for Peter to drive.

"Sir, in such weather, trees may fall, and there is a high chance of the car slipping off a cliff. It is really dangerous to keep moving," Peter said since the rain was pouring down madly, and he could barely see anything ahead.

"Let's travel as far as we can with the car, then we will continue on foot," Lucian said as he massaged his temple.

Now his primary goal was to increase his strength to a level that such tricks wouldn't work against him.

'I guess I will go back to the other Earth after obtaining this treasure. With Pendulum and Mom, I won't have to worry about any outside factors,' Lucian thought.

In both the Earths, not all people receive abilities, yet there are people without any abilities who have become extremely strong.

In such cases, it is mostly because of weapons that could exhibit a certain, or very, very rarely, two abilities. Though it also has a limitation: the weapons don't grow along with the user.

So no matter how strong any weapon is, it would be almost useless when a person evolves to the next phase, so they would have to find new weapons for themselves.

It is one of the biggest challenges that those people face. The higher the evolution, the more dangerous and difficult it would be to obtain such special weapons.

While Lucian was in thoughts of his own, the car continued to move, but Peter had to slightly decrease the speed now.

Even though Lucian had told him to drive in such dangerous weather and that with even a slight accident they both could die, Peter didn't even think of refusing him. His mind was only filled with driving the car safely.

…

Lucian was observing the surroundings carefully.

There was still some distance between him and the protagonist, but within a few minutes, he would be at his destination if they continued without any more hindrances.

"We have already covered most of the distance. Now, less than a quarter remains, but the weather is getting really bad," Peter spoke.

He was almost blinded because of the rain and constant flashes of lightning, so the speed of the car decreased even further.

'But did the protagonist really travel on foot?' Lucian thought, feeling a severe headache.

[I told you only that he is going there alone. I didn't mention he went there by foot.]
