Chapter 99: Anna’s Painful Decision

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the quiet dormitory area, the autumn evening wind blew past Anna’s delicate face. She looked in the direction of the voice. The voice came from the door of the dormitory area, where a very tall man was standing.

Anna had not expected the God of War Peter to meet her in this way. This left her momentarily at a loss. Her fingers, which were clutching the book because of her nervousness, trembled slightly.

There was no reason that could convince herself of her inner plan. However, she could not take the initiative to tell the secret that was hidden in her heart. Although this secret no longer belonged to her, at least the God of War Peter did not know about it.

The God of War Peter’s body finally moved as he walked in Anna’s direction. This made her even more nervous, so much so that she was now thinking about how to escape from here.

.

“God of War Peter, I… I’m a little tired. I’ll go back and rest. We can talk tomorrow.”

Anna didn’t wait for him to finish his sentence. Instead, she quickened her pace. She ran around the God of War Peter, who was ahead of her, and into the dormitory door.

She left the awkward staff member behind. He looked at the God of War Peter with mixed emotions.

“God of War Peter, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be going back too.”

Soon, silence was restored in the dormitory area. Peter stood in front of the dormitory door like a God of War on guard. A complicated expression appeared in his eyes, and he wondered if he had discovered something.

Across from Peter was a five-story dormitory building with only a few windows that were lit up. The figure of a girl appeared in one of the windows. Although he couldn’t see the girl’s face, he was sure that she had been staring at him.

The girl was Callie. She knew from Peter that Anna would be returning to the Genetics College tonight. Furthermore, as Anna’s former teacher, Peter was obligated to see her.

Callie appeared to agree with this on the surface, but that was not what she was thinking. She had always hated Anna, but she couldn’t say why she hated her. However, she finally knew why she hated Anna when she saw Peter standing there alone tonight.

In Callie’s heart, no one could replace Peter’s place in her heart. Furthermore, no one could ignore Peter in front of her.

Callie felt that Anna’s return was a wrong decision. Wasn’t it good for her to stay in the Federation? Since she had chosen General David’s camp, she should continue to stay there obediently.

Pa!

Callie pushed open the window in front of her with all her might. She didn’t know where her courage came from, but she shouted at Peter, who was standing downstairs opposite her.

“Peter, I’m hungry!”

Her voice was so loud that the entire building opposite could hear her.

Peter disappeared down the opposite stairs. This was Peter’s response to Callie’s earlier action.

At this time, the canteen at the Genetics College canteen. If he was lucky, he could also purchase the freshly-made pizza.

After Peter disappeared, Anna, who had entered her room, began to slowly slide to the ground with her back against the door as her vision became blurry.

Anna didn’t turn on the lights. In the dim room, only the moonlight coming in through the window allowed her to see an exquisite ornament hanging on the wall. It was engraved with the motto of the Genetics College.

“From the moment you have power, please don’t discard your humanity.”

This famous saying also appeared at the entrance of the Genetics College. Everyone who entered the Genetics College would see this sentence first.

Anna did not know how long she sat on the ground. Her face was stained with tears. She tried to control her legs to stand up, but she did not succeed. This was because the insect in her body would devour the nutrients in her body at night. At this time, she could not control her body.

However, this did not stop Anna from thinking with her brain. She looked at the bag beside her. There was a special potion inside that was used to activate the insect in the book.

Anna would activate the insect with the special potion before dawn. Then, she would find a chance to meet with the God of War Peter alone.

By then, Anna would have only one last step to take. She would have to release the activated insect and allow it to enter the body of the God of War Peter. Then, she would be able to successfully complete the mission assigned to her by General David. She would be able to go to the base of the Holy War Organization and see her father. This was another promise that General David had made to Anna.

Anna didn’t know if it was true this time. She could only choose to believe it unconditionally because she had already become a puppet of the Holy War Organization. She was a walking corpse, a Genetic God of War who had no right to negotiate.

There were many surveillance devices in the campus of the Genetics College that could monitor almost every corner of the school. Peter bought food in the canteen. Then, on the way back to the dormitory, he asked the staff to retrieve the surveillance cameras in the dormitory area and send the footage to him after sorting it out.

The staff who oversaw the surveillance work were very efficient. Not long after Peter returned to the dormitory, they sent him a copy of the complete surveillance videos. This way, Peter could check all the surveillance cameras in the entire dormitory area whenever he wanted.

Peter finished his food with Callie first. Instead of going to bed with Callie, he coaxed Callie to sleep first before going to the living room to turn on the surveillance equipment.

As Peter operated the equipment, the surveillance video of the entire dormitory area appeared in front of him. It included the latest real-time data that he could check at any time.

At this time, the video in front of Peter first showed Anna’s dormitory building. Since Professor Eugene had arranged a dormitory for her, Peter definitely knew which floor and room Anna lived in.

Peter was surprised to see the window of Anna’s dormitory on the screen. This was because there was no light coming from the window, proving that Anna might be asleep.

However, with Peter’s understanding of Anna, and her unusual reaction when he saw her previously, there were probably other reasons why the lights weren’t on.

However, Peter was in no hurry. He had all night to observe Anna’s dormitory. This time, Anna’s sudden return to the Genetics College was illogical. She had become a Genetic God of War, so there was no reason for her to return to the Genetics College.

Time passed quickly. Peter looked at the scene in front of him without feeling sleepy at all. As he chewed the remaining food in his mouth, the scene showed that Anna’s dormitory window was still dark.

Just as Peter finished a serving of pizza, something changed in the window of the image. A strong light flashed from Anna’s dormitory. It was brief, but Peter saw it.
