1109 Chapter 1109: Nothing Nothing
"Remember. If I think you're making any sudden movements, if I think you are making any funny looks, or if—Can you get the two of them to come here!?"
"Oh…?"
The stranger from the Order of Nothing was still tightly holding the wire connected to the bombs attached to his body, slightly wagging and tugging on it while pointing a gun at Miss Pepondosovich. His eyes, however, were looking at Riley and Renna, who, despite them clearly hearing him, were still just calmly floating on the water.
"Riri! Renna! We have a visitor!"
"What the—!?" The Stranger could really only gasp as Miss Pepondosovich just suddenly hopped from her chair, not seemingly caring at all that the Strenger almost accidentally pulled the wire there and then because of her sudden move, "What are you doing!? I said no sudden movements!"
Miss Pepondosovich only glanced at him before waving her hands at Riley and Renna, who very slowly just started floating toward the beach even though they weren't flapping their limbs or swimming at all. And as soon as they were on the sand, the two just casually stood up — their extremely white skin, almost blinding the Stranger as they started to approach him.
"Who is this guest, Miss Pepondosovich?" Riley just asked as he grabbed a towel for himself and Renna.
"Judging from his outfit and the bombs attached to his body, Father, he is not a guest at all," Renna shook her head as she placed the towel and laid it out on the reclined chair; completely not even minding that there was a complete stranger there and that she was wearing a two-piece bikini which completely revealed her toned, slightly slim figure.
"I believe he came here to terrorize you, he is a terrorist."
"I am not a terrorist!" The Stranger raised his voice as he pointed at Renna, "And where did you even come from!? I was sure there should only be the two of them here!"
"Unlike you, Terrorist — I am an actual guest," Renna breathed out as she just calmly sat on the chair and lay there — sunbathing even though she knew full well that her skin wouldn't be affected at all.
"What do you mean 'actual guest'?" Miss Pepondosovich seemed incredibly disgusted with Renna's words, "You just suddenly showed up here unannounced and out of nowhere! And, ack! You're blinding me! Since when did you become a woman!? Cover that up, cover it! You—ack, don't join her!"
Miss Pepondosovich could really only cover her eyes as Riley also sat on the other chair and started sunbathing. The only choice she had was to summon her backpack, which caused the Stranger to just flinch as it popped up out of nowhere.
"What—what are you doing!?" The Stranger said as he once again pointed the gun at Miss Pepondosovich as soon as he saw her rummaging through her bag — he was about to pull the trigger when he saw her pull something… but it was only a pair of sunglasses.
"So…" Miss Pepondosovich then let out a small sigh as she hopped and sat beside Renna, slightly covering her torso from the view of the man, "...What's your deal? What do you want?"
"What…?" The Stranger could really only look back and forth between the three; completely confused as to what was happening. He was threatening to blow himself up, right…? So, why were these three just casually doing whatever they wanted? Was this… some sort of tactic?
"Why are you asking me?" Miss Pepondosovich just groaned while shaking her head, "You're the one who suddenly barged in here demanding things."
"Perhaps you should have offered him some milk, Miss Pepondosovich," Riley muttered. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Shut up!" The Stranger could not help it anymore as he just approached Miss Pepondosovich and placed the nozzle of the gun right on the side of her head, "I do not know what your deal is, but this stops now — you are going to listen to me from now on."
"We have been listening to you since earlier, Terrorist," Renna also sighed and shook her head, "Just say what you want to say and stop bothering us."
"Tch, acting tough…" The Stranger clicked his tongue as he slightly squeezed on the trigger, "...Now listen to me, I am from the Order of Nothing. And I know you and that white guy over there were just in a meeting with the Overseer and those imbeciles from the Nothing Nothing squad — what were you talking about?"
"I honestly don't remember now," Miss Pepondosovich shrugged, "But they gave us a suite. So, that's coo—"
"I am not joking!" The Stranger raised his voice, "And what was that — how did you wipe out our forces just like that!? Is the Nothing Nothing Squad hiding something!? When were their ships capable of doing that!?"
"So, what are you… like a spy or something?" Miss Pepondosovich just glanced at the Stranger before letting out a small sigh, "This place really should increase their security, letting spies in or whatever. It's—"
"I told you to shut—!!!"
And before the Stranger could finish his words, he suddenly found the gun he was holding being flung away. He was going to pull on the bombs by instinct… but the wire was already cut.
"Oh?" Miss Pepondosovich blinked a couple of times before looking at Riley and Renna, only to see them just completely relaxing. And before she could wonder who actually did it, the leader of the Nothing Nothing squad, Aurora, suddenly leaped toward the Stranger and kicked him right on the head.
Miss Pepondosovich then watched as Aurora just spun in the air, expertly landing on the ground like some sort of cat before quickly rushing toward the Stranger while pointing a gun at him.
"Stay down on the ground, Nothing scum!" Aurora raised her voice, "We have snipers within the vicinity, don't even think you can escape!"
"Wow…" Miss Pepondosovich then turned to look at the distance where the bullet that shot the terrorist's gun as well as the wire came from, only to see Yellow Helmet on top of one of the other houses near the beach, holding a large sniper rifle. And very soon, people started rushing in and surrounding the Stranger.
"Are… the two of you alright?" Aurora then quickly approached Miss Pepondosovich, only to see them just quietly relaxing there even with all of the chaos going on, "Who's… that?"
"That's Riley's daughter — don't mind her, she is leaving soon," Miss Pepondosovich just casually waved her hand, "Anyway, what's with that?"
"A tracker from the Order of Nothing," Aurora sighed while shaking her head, "The Order of Nothing knows about the two of you now — they will always know where you are, it's… some sort of special skill of theirs. This one, in particular, is a suicide tracker…
…he would have blown himself regardless once you answer all of his questions."
"For the Order of Nothing!"
"...And now he's killing himself with poison," Aurora once again sighed as soon as he heard the Stranger screaming those words, "We knew they would be targeting you, and we've been following since you left the Overseer's office."
"What do you mean by they would always know where we are, Red Helmet?" Riley finally sat up as he looked at Aurora.
Aurora, however, slightly held her breath as soon as she saw Riley's extremely toned body.
"I will have you know that he already has many wives," Renna just casually joined in the conversation, "And there are many more lining up, you would have to compete with literal gods, Red Helmet."
"I wasn't thinking of anything like that," Aurora scoffed before shaking her head; her eyes, however, were still glancing at Riley's body from time to time, "And I meant what I meant — the Order of Nothing has marked you…
…you will never be safe from them, especially when you leave Everywhere."
"Huh… okay," Miss Pepondosovich shrugged before just looking at Renna, "And you, it's about time for you to go home — where did you even leave your portal anyway?"
"I can just sleep here for the night," Renna sighed as she sat up.
"Nope, vacation's over. Go, shoo! Shoo!"
"Fine," Renna shook her head as she just started walking away, "Goodbye, Father. I will join you again soon."
"Hm."
"Wait, where is she going?" Aurora raised her voice as she saw Renna just walking into the house, "She's probably also marked by them now!"
"Well, good luck with that because she will be very, very far away," Miss Pepondosovich rolled her lips, "So, Riri. What do you think about all of this?"
"I do not really appreciate people marking my daughter," Riley let out a small breath as he stood up, causing Aurora to once again just hold her breath, this time almost taking a step back as she accidentally stared at Riley's chest for a full 5 seconds, "I suppose the Order of Nothing has to go, Miss Pepondosovich."
