Chapter 15
Shi Yu almost forgot that he still had organs that could be used to make sounds.
His upper body, including his head, seemed to be gripped by some strange, restraining, paralyzing feeling. Even though Shigure desperately wanted to speak, he could only slump against the cold rock wall, his watery black eyes filled with bewilderment as he stared at the two very young boys before him, who seemed not much older than him.
Just now Noah said that he became like this because he "promised him".
...!? Was it him? Then he didn't even want me to answer!
Shi Yu, vaguely aware that the two people in front of her were not up to no good, was almost dizzy with mixed emotions. She had just thought Noah was a good person, but in the end she was deceived -
Beta complained as if she was being betrayed, and Noah caught the slight anger in his eyes.
The corners of his lips curled up slightly for a moment, and Noah lowered his snow-white eyelashes. His naturally softened expression made the boy's divine and dignified appearance more approachable.
Noticing that Xiu hadn't moved, Noah said to her as a reminder, "She's silent now. She's very quiet."
——When he spoke to Xiu, he didn't seem as easy to talk to as before.
"It's just a bite. What are you hesitating about, Xiu?"
He asked with a frown.
Xiu: "Oh, a temporary mark?"
The brown-eyed boy, with a somewhat deep, mixed-race look, didn't look at Shi Yu, seemingly finding the nearby stone more appealing than her. His sturdy arms rested on his bent knees, and he stomped his feet intermittently on the thinly coated ice, his face revealing a look of boredom, akin to someone with nothing to say.
"...Wayne has never done such a thing to you." As if accusing her of being useless, the boy said with disdain in a bad tone.
The Alpha's sensitive sense of smell for his prey made him extremely aware at this moment that the Beta in front of him was still in a state of being ownerless. She was clean, just like the smell of pheromones that had completely disappeared from her body, so bland that it was annoying.
Before Noah could continue to urge him on with a sly look, Xiu, shirtless and with a sinister expression, stood up and approached Shigure. Shigure looked at him in shock, unable to even lift her head. All she could see was Xiu's sleek, toned figure, his slightly brown waist and abdomen, fully and unreservedly displayed before her.
Shi Yu: “……!”
She tried to close her eyes, not knowing whether it was out of fear or shyness.
Xiu raised his eyes and glanced at the girl's furry head in confusion. Inadvertently, his eyes touched her slender white neck, which was still faintly visible under the loose training suit.
The only commendable thing about this Beta is its neck.
The boy seemed to find something pleasing about Beta that was rare.
Alphas were all more or less obsessed with the beauty of necks, and Xiu was at least an Alpha with a normal aesthetic. Even if the girl was just a Beta, Xiu could still stop and admire her neck, which still had some bruises on it.
That's still the trace he left behind.
"Beta." Xiu suddenly spoke, his eyes red and his voice filled with the same mockery as when they first met. "Did you ever imagine this day would come?"
Shi Yu didn't dare to open his eyes.
Then Xiu bent down, gripping Shigure's shoulders with a strength that was definitely not gentle, frowning and resting his chin on Shigure's shoulder. After pushing aside the obstructing clothing and hair, he lifted his eyelids slightly and stared coldly at the soft skin of the girl's neck.
The soft and delicate bulge, the white skin is covered with sensitive nerves and warm blood flowing.
Xiu had never marked anyone, although his instinct told him that as long as he put the tip of his tooth in here, he would be able to get an "item" that belonged to him intact.
But at this delicate moment, the boy paused for a long time.
"..." Shi Yu's shoulders and neck were covered with a high fever that could not be ignored. She was extremely anxious. How bad was this person... He made people so nervous before doing something bad...
She really didn't feel any further movement from Xiu, but she didn't relax because of this. Instead, Shi Yu felt a bit of unresolved fear...
It was as if he was giving Beta enough time to react to everything - Xiu's handsome and stern eyebrows were filled with the research and seriousness that he would only show when reviewing battles in the past. He kept observing the soft bulge again and again until his thin shoulders, where he could feel the bones, twitched slightly in resistance.
The dying struggle finally interrupted Xiu's meditation.
He saw Shi Yu trying hard to open her lips while holding back her tears. Her resentful and childish expression made her intentions clear to everyone.
The Alpha took in Shigure's expression. Even though his dry, thin lips were cracked and bleeding, and his body was suffocated due to his mental disorder, and he was in a state of endlessly spreading his passion to the surroundings - but when facing the unusual softness on Beta's body, Xiu's face still did not show any emotion.
"From now on, it won't be those two bugs, Kanhara or Wayne, who will accompany you."
The force on his shoulders unconsciously increased, causing Shigure to cry out in pain if the conditions hadn't allowed it...
The girl was weakly forced to open her defenseless area to the hunter. Their skin touched each other, and Xiu could feel more and more that the other party was trying very hard to control his limbs, twitching continuously as if expressing resistance.
He ignored all this and instead pressed his forehead against the girl's soft neck. His breath, as hot as a furnace, instantly turned Shi Yu's fair and tender skin red.
Seeing this scene, Xiu's mouth twitched and he sneered softly, his voice implying a twisted sense of pleasure.
"...There's no point in being disappointed. Just bear with it."
…
Shi Yu thought, it would be nice if he could faint at this moment.
During the two days when Wayne was still around, she was always fainting or falling asleep. Shi Yu originally thought that it was because she was running around and causing trouble for Wayne... Wayne was a very capable person and would not let herself delay his efficiency, so he would knock her out every time and then lock her in a secret place to let her sleep soundly.
But now Shi Yu understood. This was actually, maybe, protection? She couldn't get down, and no one knew she was lying there motionless. The only person brought here was Simon, a kind man who cooked for them full-time.
I should apologize to Wayne again later...
But I'm afraid there's no chance... Shi Yu felt a little sad, maybe, maybe this person wanted to bite her neck off!
Otherwise, why would he come so close to me so fiercely?
The two of them were in very strange postures at this time.
Because Shigure was leaning against the rock wall, and the Alpha named Xiu seemed to like this posture where he could completely cover the person just by leaning over, so the black-haired girl was half-hugged in his arms in an awkward posture. She looked painful and tormented, and her tears had been falling for a long time.
It didn't seem like an act that was unexpectedly determining all relationships, but rather like a brutal falcon hunting an innocent female rabbit and torturing it before feasting on it.
Having just walked into the cave from a tunnel hidden inside the snow-capped mountains, the young man, who was now equivalent to an invisible man, calmly adjusted his monocle thanks to the abilities of his companions.
At the same time, the above imagination emerged in my mind——
"Xia Feng." The lens, emitting a fluorescent green light, began silently recording footage from afar. The boy asked casually, "Just leaving it like that? That Beta... hasn't Wayne been watching over her all along?"
“…”
The boy asked himself and answered: "That's right. With our fighting power, we are unlikely to defeat the combination of Noah and Xiu. If you think it's unnecessary, then it's fine. But we have to wait a while before leaving."
"I need some real footage of this scene in my database. Please wait a moment, please."
In the second stage, only the top ten students in the school exam will retain their special abilities, and his special abilities can no longer be used. Fortunately, his companions' abilities are quite stable and can give people a sense of security.
If he were to act alone and unfortunately encounter even one of Xiu or Noah - the boy thought, he would turn around and leave immediately without any hesitation.
Fortunately, he had a good relationship with the tenth place player and successfully formed a team.
The ability he was sharing with her was similar to the feeling of the Alpha Xia Feng. She had been in the top ten in the school entrance exams, but her presence had always been rather subtle, making the ability "Hide" perfectly suited for her.
——Only about half an hour has passed since the transmission began.
When they first arrived at the unfamiliar cave, he easily gathered information from the database that there was a hidden world inside the cave. So the young man and Xia Feng, who had concealed their presence, began to explore the snow-capped mountains with confidence.
The snowy mountains were dotted with maze-like tunnels. They tried to walk into the nearby road. As military cadets, the two Alphas were very decisive in their actions. Because of this, they were more straightforward than their peers and had encountered the current situation.
But if it doesn't involve yourself, then it's okay.
The silver frame of the monocle felt slightly hot. At the moment when he was just one step away from recording the precious video data of the AB marking process, the boy's back, which was straightened due to concentration, and his buttocks, where the muscles were taut, were suddenly exerted by someone with rough and reckless force.
……ah.
The young man, who was kicked by his companion before the final kick, had a blank expression on his face. He staggered forward a few steps as if he had expected it.
Physics left Xia Feng's hiding range.
The young man adjusted the lens and made sure it was not damaged by the sudden situation. Then, facing the dangerous and vigilant gazes of the two people opposite him who were the ceiling of combat power in the same level, he nodded to them politely.
Then, he politely turned around and discussed with Xia Feng: "Although the unexpected effect is very good, please remember to notify me in advance next time."
"Also, stop kicking people in the buttocks. It's very disrespectful."
Two strands of hair that were neatly combed back fell down and blocked the front of the lenses in a messy manner. The boy expressed his dissatisfaction in such a restrained manner.
Xia Feng, who also lifted his hidden state, wordlessly cast his dark yet beautiful eyes on Shi Yu who was pressed against the wall.
Not sure if she heard her companions' complaints, the short-haired girl in the neat training uniform was silent for a moment before uttering a short, cold, "Hmm."
