Chapter 353
After Alex and Rachel were done reconfirming that they loved each other Alex started to explain the choice he needed to make . First, he told her what he needed to go through while he was here, then he explained what his grandfather has planned for him . As Alex"s story progressed Rachel"s expression was getting worse and worse . Once Alex was done telling his story, Rachel"s face looked like the face of an angry monster .
"The h.e.l.l is wrong with that guy! What kind of grandfather treats his grandson in such a way!" Rachel then looked around the room and started to scream even louder . "I know you"re watching this you so s*nuvab*tch! How about you come an-"
Alex suddenly blocked Rachel"s mouth from shouting and whispered something into her ear . After hearing what Alex had to say Rachel finally calm down . Alex then positioned himself in a way that the cameras inside the room, won"t be able to capture his hand movements . He was now telling Rachel what he was planning to do .
. . .
While Alex was telling Rachel his plan through hand signals, Richter was now face to face with Oliver talking to him .
"It"s been some time James, or should I call you Oliver now," Richter spoke while he was cleaning his firearms in front of Oliver .
"Oliver is just fine . . . So what is it you want from me?"
"Nothing much, I just wanted to talk to a former subordinate . I heard you lost Marge and Phil a year ago . That must"ve been devasting, losing your real parents, and even your foster parents . Still, I guess you can keep on going because you have that great la.s.s as a girlfriend, what was her name again . . . Oh right, Sayaka, she"s a pretty wonderful woman, you have chosen well, Oliver . "
Oliver simply continued to listen, even though he got angry when he heard Richter speak of his parents, but he kept it in . He knew what kind of person this person in front of him was . Even if he did go and attack out of anger, he wouldn"t last long, against this old man, especially now that he was weaponless .
Yet the moment he heard Richter talk about Sayaka, Oliver"s whole demeanor changed as his bloodl.u.s.t filled the atmosphere . Yet even in this kind of situation Richter remained calm and collected, as if everything was under his control .
"What have you done to Sayaka! Tell me!" Oliver stood up as he shouted in rage .
"Calm down Oliver, I"m here to give you a choice . So you better sit down and listen, if you accidentally p.i.s.s me off, I might just kill you right now . "
Oliver bit his lower lip and sat down with reluctance .
"Good boy, okay then now that we can talk like civilized people, I"m going tell you the choice you need to make . I want you to try and kill my grandson Alex, and if you are able to do that I will release you and all your friends . If you aren"t able to do that then, I"ll kill Sayaka right in front of you, then I"ll kill all your other friends . "
Oliver was first stunned into silence when he heard this statement and then after a few seconds, he started laughing . Richter not expecting such a response grew a bit irritated and asked, "do you think this is funny?"
"Of course I do, that kind of threat won"t work on me! Is this amateur hour, leader? Besides I"m sure the others won"t fall for such a threat either . Even though Sir Lyner never taught as much through his words, his actions, especially in his death, taught us a lot of things . I"m a hundred percent sure that not one of the students of Sir Lyner would ever succ.u.mb to such a foolish threa-" Before Oliver could finish what he wanted to say Richter kicked him in the gut . The calm old man was now showing his true face, one that of an angry demon . The killing intent he was exuding surpa.s.sed anything Oliver has ever felt before .
"You dare call me foolis.h.!.+ You dare insinuate that a dead man was better than me!" Richter then proceeded to mount Oliver and punch him on his face . Oliver who has his hands chained down couldn"t block, it was a good thing that with his current state he was more tolerant to pain .
After hitting Oliver a few times, Richter was able to calm himself down . He looked at Oliver and saw that the boy was actually smiling, this irked Richter and he simply said, "you will regret making me this angry . " Richter left the room and headed to the next one .
. . .
Richter told a similar speech to Kei and Niel, where he received a similar response as Oliver"s . Richter who was walking towards his office was very irritated .
"Really even in death your ideals and ways are irritating me . Even in death, you"re such a loud man, Lyner . "
Richter couldn"t forget the faces that Alex"s friends shown him when he used the same threat . The look they gave him, was like they truly believed what he was saying was absurd and hilarious . Especially Niel that conversation was the most irritating .
. . .
A few minutes back after Richter offered Niel a chance to save all his friends, if he could kill Alex . The boy that was always smiling showed Richter a very radiant smile before answering .
"That doesn"t make any sense, Alex is my friend as well . Wouldn"t following your deal which is killing Alex in exchange for my friends to be able to safely exit this place, contradictory . If Alex is dead that would mean not all my friends will be able to leave safely correct?"
Richter was getting a bit irritated at this point but held it in as he answered, "you know that"s not what I"m talking about . I know you understand what I meant when I made you that offer . "
Niel then tilted his head as if he was confused before he spoke, "Huh? I"m sorry I"m just a stupid boy that"s in no way near your greatness . How could I an ordinary mortal even begin to understand your thought process? In my view your proposal is contradictory, but in your view, it is not . I wish you would expla-" Richter couldn"t take it anymore and kicked Niel which forced him to faint .
. . .
"All of these students of Lyner"s, they just want to irritate me to no end! Very well, it doesn"t really matter what they say now, tomorrow when the time for killing comes they will show me their true colors . "
Richter who was looking extremely p.i.s.sed just moments ago was now smiling . He was just a bit irritated since this was the first time anyone has talked to him like that . Usually, when anyone talks to him like that, their heads would already be rolling . Well, there was one person who talked c*ckily like that him and survived . . .
"Lyner I truly wish I could"ve killed you with my own hands . "
. . .
As Richter was heading back to his own room, Alex was done telling Rachel the finer details of his plan . In which Rachel responded with hand gestures as well, "do you think this plan will work?"
Alex responded simply by gesturing, "I hope so . "
