YM778.TV Chapter 333
The crowd near the stage quickly moved away to avoid the splatter and the way everyone was looking at me was different. It was a mix of fear and reverence but Mr. Cuervo took my hand. He raised it up in the sky and everyone present fired several rounds in the air. Thunderous cheers flooded my ears once more as they didn’t seem to mind the body of the person that I killed. His name was now imprinted in my head the same as the previous ones that fell by my hands.
The music blasted once more as his people started to clear the bodies. The cage was getting dismantled while food and booze were being served to everyone.
“You’re the first one to be a solo winner my friend. You proved that you’re the biggest man today and that lady, Tatiana was it? My wife likes her and she told me that she’s actually following you. Her performance in the previous game earlier was fantastic! Well, what you did was the most f.u.c.k.i.n.g incredible thing I saw in all of my games. Come, bring your whole crew with you. Tell them to drive inside my place. Let’s get you cleaned up first and uh- me too, heh. Let’s meet again in a couple of hours and we’ll have a feast my friend!” Mr. Cuervo excitedly said as he told his people to guide us.
He made his way inside while his guards gave me a small salute. A few people were crowding over me to introduce themselves and a few tender bodies were already grinding against me. They didn’t seem to mind my body covered in blood as I tried to break from their encirclement. Enrique came at the right time and he started on smacking the crowd with a wooden stick.
“Ey! Go away! Vete! Putas~ go away! Forgot that he has a woman already?! Didn’t you see how beautiful she was?! Your tits aren’t even half hers! Shoo! Hey~! Break it up! Break it up!” Enrique gave me a nod.
“Thanks man.” I chuckled.
“Congrats vato! That thing you did, oh man. All the putas here were f.u.c.k.i.n.g wet I tell ya! F.u.c.k.i.n.g wet hermano! Salute!” he hugged me like we were brothers.
I just patted his back and I looked for Kaley. I saw her already running towards me after she pushed against the crowd that Enrique drove away. Tatiana, Ilya, and Cynthia slowly followed behind her as I saw our truck and our pickup backing up to drive inside Mr. Cuervo’s small driveway. It led to his house which was several times bigger than every house present. It’s even safe to call it a mansion the way it had a separate wall aside from the tall ones that surrounded this whole gated community.
Kaley looked like she was about to say a lot of things but I stopped her.
“Can we go inside first?” I asked her.
She just took a deep breath and she walked beside me.
Enrique acted as our tour guide as we were guided inside.
He was now maintaining a safe distance away from Tatiana but he’s still trying to get her attention. Kaley and I were given our separate room and it was huge. The furniture inside was exquisite and there was already a spread of delicacies near the bed. Jared dropped our bags and other equipment inside the room first before he excitedly excused himself.
“Bro, I’ll f.u.c.k.i.n.g see you in the morning!” he shouted before disappearing.
I started making my way towards the bathroom but my body already gave up on me.
“Shit.” I thought to myself.
I fell on one knee as I lost control of my body.
My head was about to slam against the marble flooring but Kaley caught me. She raised my head up and I saw her worried face.
“Hey! Are you okay?! Sky! Talk to me! Please! Don’t pass out! Sky! Sk-” she started to cry but I managed to place both of my hands on top of her shoulders. I embraced her and my weight bearing down on her made her sit down.
“Are you hurt?! Please! Tell me!” she tried to make me stand up.
“I’m fine… I’m just… really~ tired… I’m sorry…” I managed to mutter a few words.
Kaley’s face started to become a mess when she saw me in this state and she can’t seem to form the words she wanted to say. She just started crying while embracing me tightly. Her head was right next to mine and I could hear her sobbing.
“Hey… don’t cry… it’s my fault… I’m sorry… I really am just tired… trust me… I just need to sleep for a bit… don’t call anyone… please…” my eyes were starting to get heavy. She tried to speak to me but I was too tired to hear her.
I fell unconscious and I just woke up wearing a new set of clothes.
I was now laying in the bed while I’m hearing water gushing out from the bathroom. I could hear the muffled sound of the music coming from the outside and I saw my gear cleaned thoroughly on the table next to me. My whole body felt like I came out from an intense workout though my head was clearer than ever.
I sat upright and looked for my watch and it said that I was asleep for over an hour. My arms and my legs were sore but I stood up to head to the bathroom. I knocked on the door and called out to her.
“Kaley?” I softly said.
The door immediately opened and I saw her surprised face. She was still in the middle of taking a shower but she quickly wrapped a towel around herself to approach me. She was about to hug me but she hesitated. Worry appeared on her face once more but I just smiled and hugged her myself. She was about to start crying again but I lifted her up like it was nothing.
“Hey! Put me down! Are you sure you could- Ah!” she struggled to get down but I threw her on the bed. Her towel came loose and there’s still a few drops of water on her body. Her hair was still wet and a few strands were covering her eyes.
I jumped on the bed and I went on top of her. My face went closer to her face and she became fl.u.s.tered. She was looking straight at me but I could still see the worry in her eyes.
“I’m fine now. I’m still~ a bit sore but I’m fine now. Thanks for taking care of me.” I whispered into her ear then I gave her a kiss.
“…” she was still silent and I got annoyed.
“Why do you taste like Tequila? Did you start drinking without me? Hmm?” I said as I tilted my head slightly.
“What?! Well… I was- I did! So what?! I don’t know what to do with you earlier! You just collapsed and- and- you told me to not call anyone! I was so- It’s all my f- I was so- so-” Kaley looked like she was about to cry again but she hammered her fist in my chest. It didn’t hurt that much but looking at her like this is breaking me inside.
“Hey, none of what happened was your fault. Please don’t blame yourself. Everything that happened earlier was only because I wanted to leave a lasting impression on Mr. Cuervo. Things happened in the middle of it like that announcer talking shit about Old Man Kaiseki’s creations and you so I wanted a faceslapping to happen. I know it’s very stupid of me to not use my katana and wakizashi side by side after you made that deal for me but that’s all on me. I could’ve either used both of them to have a much easier time killing them or kited them around to save my energy but I didn’t, and that’s still all on me. It’s just that I overexerted myself that I fell unconscious. Nothing happened while I was inside the cage, right?” I explained.
“W-well, I shouldn’t have made that deal in the first place. I saw your expression that time you know and that pretty much said that. I know that you could handle yourself but I just made it harder for you when you tried to defend m-me. I should’ve just done nothing and trusted you.” a tear fell on the side of her face.
“Kaley…” I looked at her solemnly.
Her face is turning sour but I continued.
“Can you just for one moment not use your powers so I could at least tell you a white lie to make you feel better?! I don’t want to see you like this, okay?!” I faintly smiled.
“W-w-what?” she was confused.
“Your powers! Your powers! You know, that bullshit supernatural shit you and your mom do! That power!” I widened my eyes.
“It’s not a power! It’s just- Don’t change the subject!” she exclaimed.
Then I suddenly headbutted her.
