The Jelly Alien Will Save You!
Episode 42
I took a deep breath and said.
“I don’t need that kind of thing. Just disappear already.”
“Then you won’t get anything!”
“That’s fine.”
At this, cracks spread across the floor of the CEO’s office.
“You’ll regret this!”
“This is your only chance!”
“Listen to me!”
I shook my head.
Then black smoke swallowed up the CEO’s faces.
Rumble!
The CEO’s office began to collapse.
“To the elevator!”
I grabbed the two people and dragged them along.
Captain Gong Ju Won was pulled by my hand into the elevator.
The CEO was engulfed in flames, letting out grotesque groans.
“Chae Heon!”
We needed to get out of here quickly, but Chae Heon remained in the CEO’s office.
“Chae Heon, hurry!”
I screamed like a shriek.
Only when the CEO’s office was almost completely collapsed did Chae Heon enter the elevator.
“What were you doing? We almost had a disaster.”
I pressed the button for the rooftop while sighing.
What was he dawdling around for? Usually he’s so quick. I can’t understand him at all, I was thinking when.
Chae Heon held out something.
“You said you needed this.”
“What?”
A sparkling card.
It was the CEO authority coupon.
I received the coupon with trembling hands.
“Th, thank you…”
I greeted him in a daze and hugged the coupon tightly to my chest.
“Really, thank you…”
Chae Heon had an expression like ‘Is this worth that kind of reaction?’ but to me it was that important an item.
‘With just this…’
I can become human.
That meant more than simply being able to go outside the Contaminated Area, it gave me a more special feeling.
‘I thought I had adapted well to my alien appearance all this time…’
Seeing that I felt this way, it seems that wasn’t entirely true.
Ding-
While I was touching the coupon with strange feelings, the elevator arrived at the rooftop. The cold air from outside invaded into the elevator.
Shivering from the chill, I bounced out to the center of the rooftop and looked around.
In one corner of the rooftop, I could see old desks piled up like an igloo. That was where Older Sister was staying.
I pressed my lips tightly together and struggled to swallow the tears that were welling up.
I wanted to show a composed appearance to Older Sister who seemed anxious.
“Sorry, but could you two stay here?”
I asked Chae Heon and Captain Gong Ju Won for understanding. Older Sister might not be friendly to strangers.
Of course, I probably look like a stranger now too…
I had hope that Kwon Bora who had become Xion might have abilities like Older Brother and recognize me.
I carefully approached.
“Older Sister…”
The moment I called Older Sister with a trembling voice and entered under the dark desk.
“Older Sister?”
It was empty.
The space inside was just big enough for an adult woman to lie down fully. There was no way she could be hiding in such a place.
I came outside and looked around, but there was no trace of Older Sister.
Could she have transformed back into a whale to get food for the dolls?
When I went back under the desk, in the empty space were only keyring dolls of the Guild Members lined up.
I felt hope looking at the dolls that characterized the Guild Members.
I found Older Brother, and I found Kwon Bora. Maybe other Guild Members are also surviving somewhere?
‘I hope so.’
I took out Older Brother’s keyring doll from my chest. It was to place it next to the other dolls.
‘Kwon Bora will come back here, right?’
If I wait, I’ll be able to meet her again…
Crack!
At that moment, I heard the sound of electricity sparking.
“…?”
I turned my head outside.
“Come outside!”
“Jelly!”
Chae Heon and Captain Gong Ju Won were shouting urgently.
“Huh?”
It was when I was giving a dazed response.
Crash-
The desks that were piled up like an igloo collapsed.
It’s going to hit!
I reflexively curled up my body, when Older Brother above my head grabbed one of the desks with his tentacle and threw it.
“…?!”
I didn’t even have time to think it was fortunate.
What was happening?
It was simultaneous with me holding Older Brother and quickly coming outside.
Whoosh-
I heard the sound of air being cut.
With a crack! sound, the humanized Kwon Bora’s tail was flying toward Chae Heon.
Chae Heon bent his body backward and avoided the tail by a hair’s breadth.
Crack! Sparks were flying from the tail he dodged.
Bang!
A gunshot followed.
The bullet hit the tip of the tail, bounced off, and embedded in the ground.
I barely managed to hold back from screaming.
All of this happened in an instant.
As I pressed down on my wildly beating chest, Captain Gong Ju Won holding the gun said with a trembling voice.
“I didn’t know you were alive, Hunter Kwon Bora.”
“…”
“It’s me. Don’t you remember?”
“…”
Captain Gong Ju Won kept trying to talk to her, but there was no response.
Captain Gong Ju Won isn’t enough.
“Older Sister! Kwon Bora!”
I called out loudly to Older Sister.
Then Older Sister’s gaze turned toward me.
Crackle! Sparks erupted around her body as she swayed her tail left and right with a fierce expression.
“…!”
It was an expression like she was facing prey.
I froze at that look in her eyes.
Captain Gong Ju Won was the same. He was visibly stiff.
Just looking directly at Older Sister who had become a Xion would feel like corruption was engulfing his entire body.
Soon her tail came flying fiercely.
“Get back!”
Chae Heon pulled Captain Gong Ju Won backward, blocking the sudden attack.
Captain Gong Ju Won staggered back, scooped me up, and leaped onto the rooftop.
Swoosh- Swish-
Soon the sound of air being torn came one after another.
Right below the rooftop, the two figures were colliding here and there, leaving only blurry afterimages.
Blink blink.
“…Captain Gong, can you see that?”
“No….”
After exchanging several invisible attacks, the two figures stopped at a distance.
Crackle, crackle, crackle-
Sparks flew around Kwon Bora’s body as her hair began to stand up.
Above that, a massive spear of electricity was formed.
“Zeus….”
From Gong Ju Won’s mouth, who was watching that sight, came Kwon Bora’s alias.
Queisa’s Zeus.
That was Kwon Bora’s hunter name.
Crackle-!
Electricity tore through the air.
The massive spear of electricity spun once in mid-air and aimed fiercely at Chae Heon.
“Chae Heon!”
I broke free from Captain Gong Ju Won’s arms and shouted loudly.
I could feel a tingling killing intent throughout my body. I couldn’t let Kwon Bora hurt Chae Heon.
‘I have to stop this!’
Kwon Bora was an S-rank who competed for 1st or 2nd place in combat power even within Queisa Guild.
If she went all out, she would be an absolutely unstoppable opponent.
“Dodge!”
