"Um, so what do you think of my job, Venerable One?"
Professor Frances immediately frowned as she heard this question from Katana Mantis. She barely hid the irritation in her eyes as she kept herself from sighing.
"Hm… what indeed?" Professor Frances forced herself to say these words as she inwardly mused about Katana Mantis' actions earlier.
"Sigh… Katana Mantis was one of my favorite Squad Leader. With her incredible agility and power, capturing those bystanders earlier should have been a piece of cake for her." Professor Frances thought to herself as she her eyes narrowed. "But instead of capturing them, Katana Mantis immediately went for the kill. Sigh… it seems like this kid right here has to discipline herself more…"
After reaching this line of thought, Professor Frances looked at Katana Mantis' compounded eyes, which all stared back at the professor with clear devotion.
"Sigh… if you were only a little bit older, you and your allies could have been more perfect…" Professor Frances thought to herself as she slowly approached the mantis. "But what's done is done, so I just have to put up with you right now. Your improvements and upgrades… shall come later."
"Um, Venerable One? Your silence is scaring me…" Katana Mantis nervously mumbled as the professor got nearer to her. "Have I angered you?"
"No, you did not anger me. I was just… slightly disappointed with you." Professor Frances immediately replied as she stopped walking. The professor's eyes then focused on the blood on Katana Mantis' jaw, which still showed signs of being fresh.
"You could have gotten a perfect score from me, but your actions with those bystanders earlier were so unnecessary. Seriously, you have no reason to kill them. They are powerless against you, so you don't need to kill them!" Professor Frances did not let the mantis explain herself as she started to lecture her on the spot. "Capturing them will be far useful for us!"
The professor then pointed her fingers at the Mountain of Enlightenment, which was currently floating at the center of the Jade Sea Prefecture. She made sure that the Katana Mantis looked at this mountain first before she continued talking.
"Katana Mantis, the instruction that I gave to you and your allies was just simple. Leave the Trash Prefecture and reach that floating mountain. That's just it! If there are any people that will obstruct you, you are only allowed to capture them! You will only kill them if needed! How hard was that to understand, huh?"
"Venerable One, I-"
"Don't try explaining yourself anymore, Katana Mantis." Professor Frances quickly said as she made her voice turn cold. "I have seen your lack of discipline, which makes me sad. As such, I will subject you to a punishment later. Do you have any complaints about that?"
"Nothing, Venerable One!" The mantis hurriedly replied as she cowered under the professor's glare. "I know that I am really in the wrong this time…. So I will gladly accept your punishment!"
"Tsk, just make sure that you have learned your lesson from this." The professor said as she rubbed the back of her head. "Okay, now that I have finished talking with you, you should continue approaching that mountain. This time, do not screw up, okay?"
"I promise, Venerable One! I will not kill unless I need to!" Katana Mantis enthusiastically said as she looked at the professor with tears on her eyes. "I promise that with my life!"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I heard your promises already. Now shoo shoo. Go and leave already." Professor Frances muttered as she waved her hands dismissively. "I will meet with you and the others once you reached the mountain."
"Noted, Venerable One!" Katana Mantis immediately stood up after giving this reply. Her insectoid face seemed to be full of relief as she stared at the professor with intense fanaticism.
Katana Mantis then looked at the other monsters, who were still kowtowing at the professor.
"My subordinates! The Venerable One has allowed us to continue our passage! So stand the f**k up and follow me!" The mantis shouted, which roused all the nearby monsters into action. "This time, we must do our best and not screw up! Do you understand that?"
"YES WE DO!"
"Okay! Now let's continue our journey!"
"OHHH!!!!"
Katana Mantis and her monster squad then all resumed their journey, but this time around, the murderous air around them has disappeared. Even their marching sounds has sounded fainter, as if they were trying to make an effort to be less noticeable.
"Good, so they can learn as fast as a normal person. It's a good thing that the monsterification process did not mess up their logical thinking…" Professor Frances, who was left behind by the departing monster squad, told to herself as a relieved expression appeared on her face. "Sigh… I was worried that my creations this time will have some defects. But luckily for me, none of those appeared! Hehehe…. I really am the best bio-sculptor ever!"
"Hehehe…" The relieved expression from the professor's face quickly disappeared as a strangled laughter came out of her lips. Her laughter, which sounded both shrill and chaotic, made her look like she was in a verge of madness. "Hehehe… If I had these monsters with me before, even those blasted Travelers who invaded my world will be killed like ants! Hehehe, these monsters really are the best!"
The professor then continued laughing to herself as she clutched her stomach. She seemed to be really amused right now, that she took no note of the two people who suddenly appeared behind her back.
It was only when one of these two new arrivals has spoken up that the professor was forced to stop her laugh fest.
"Oi Frances. Can you please stop laughing like that? The baby might wake up and cry from your creepy laughter!"
"Huh?" The killing intent inside Professor Frances immediately exploded as she was caught-off guard by what she heard.
"Boom!"
She jumped away from her position, as she realized that someone has managed to sneak up to her.
This naturally had her worried, as all of her body's senses had been honed up to their maximum limits.
"Who?" The professor exclaimed as she assumed an immediate fighting pose. She looked at the person who spoke up to her, taking note of this person's weak points.
But before she could start scanning her 'opponent', Professor Frances's eyes widened as she saw who the intruder was.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
"F**king hell Alex, so it was you who just spoke up. Why did you have to surprise me like that?" The professor grumbled angrily as she glared at Alex, who was looking at her with an amused smile on his face. "I almost had a heart attack from that, you know!"
"So what if you almost had a heart attack? You're still alive now, right?" Alex replied smugly as Professor Frances dispelled her fighting stance. "Wait a second, what would happen to you if you indeed suffer a heart attack? Will you die?"
"Hmph, of course not. I have countermeasures prepared for that." Professor Frances said with irritation as she looked at Alex and Alina, who was just standing behind him. "Okay, enough about me. Can I now ask my own questions?"
"We just had our reunion, and the first thing that you will do is ask me questions? How cruel of you!" Alex replied with a fake 'hurt' expression on his face. "Is that how you treat your comrades? Shouldn't you welcome us first?"
"Welcome my ass! You left me and Queen Mother with that dumb fairy in a dump site! How the hell can I just let that be?" Professor Frances shouted out as she pointed her finger at Alex. She did her best to not blow up at him, although she was still itching to beat him up right now.
"Oi Frances, I know that you are still pissed with what has happened to you. But I assure you that I will explain all of it to you later. For now, why don't we just talk like normal allies?"
"Hah? You want me to do that? Hell no!" Professor Frances immediately said as she gritted her teeth. "Explain everything to me first! Explain why I lost consciousness when I became your Companion! Explain why you ditched us on that trashy place! Explain why you did not leave a better communication method for us! Explain why you wanted to build a monster army! If you will not explain any of these to me, then I will not move away from this spot!"
Professor Frances was extremely pissed right now, and nothing, not even a shot of her favorite vodka, will be enough to fix her mood.
Alex seemed to have realized this, as he did not push himself on her.
"Hahahaha, I see that you are really angry. Fine, I shall explain myself right now. However, I will only use a shortened version." Alex said as he gave the professor a sheepish smile. "After all, we still have a mission to succeed, so we cannot waste any more time!"
"Hah? From the way that you are talking, you are making it sound like you want to finish this mission already." The professor commented, with her tone still laced with her anger. "There's still some more months until we can end the mission right? Why the rush?"
"Oh right, because we have only met right now, I still haven't told you about it." Alex replied as he tilted his head. "My bad, my bad."
"Told me about what?" The professor queried as she looked at Alex with confusion. "Is that important?"
"Yes it is."
"If it is important, then you should tell it to me right now!"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, I am sure."
"Will you not get angry?"
"Try me then."
"Okay. You promised to not get angry, so I will tell it now"
"Go on Alex."
"Okay… so after my seclusion training earlier, I made new discoveries, which gave me all the things that I needed in this world. These things that I obtained were so helpful, that realized that I can use them to finish the Main Mission. So, I have decided to end the Main Mission today." Alex said as he rubbed his hands together. "Trust me, as long as we do our roles right, we can finish everything today!"
"What the f**-"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
