I Kill Monsters For A Living - Chapter 10 Circus

– “So, do you know what the vampire hunters look like?”

“NOPE!” Yelled Mike.

“So basically you’re telling me that we’re fcked…”

“YUP!” Mike yelled.

Ada then chuckled and began to pat Owota on the back, “It’s an okay dude, aren’t you immortal and stuff?”

“…”

“Alright nevermind, I guess your face already explains it…”

“Looks like we’ve gotta hide Owota somewhere… and I’ve got the perfect place!” Mike then put his hand on Owotas shoulder.

“What place are you thinking?”

“My circus on the other side of town…”

“I’m not going near any fcking murderous clowns.”

“No worries dude, there are no clowns.” Mike chuckled.

_ “You’re lying to me aren’t you…”

“I am lying…”

“There’s no way you’re making me-”

-Two hours later-

“WE’RE HERE!”

I wouldn’t really call this place a circus… The tent was coloured red and white while being surprisingly large. The inside had at least twenty plastic chairs and a small circle in the middle you could compare to a sumo arena and a large curtain. Besides from that, the entire tent was empty with no one else being there but us.

“I own this place so make yourself at home, we can keep Owota backstage,” Mike said as he walked up to the curtain.

“This place is filthy…” I said as I dusted off the dust from the chairs.

“THIS PLACE IS AWESOME!” Ada yelled.

_ “Uh… Mike? How much did this all cost?”

“Around half a million.”

“HOW THE HELL DID YOU MANAGE TO GET THAT MUCH MONEY!? AND WHY WOULD YOU SPEND IT ON A CRAPPY CIRCUS?”

“I get paid more than all of you do… I also wanted a circus…’”

Mike’s Salary: $, p.a

“How does Gigantomachia even make its money?” Kim asked Mike.

“King owns a large tech company and he uses his money to pay people like us to kill monsters and stuff.”

_ “That’s stupid, the old guy doesn’t even know how to even use a phone…”

“Well, I get paid so I don’t really care…”

Mike then opened the large curtain revealing a large statue of a clown, a couch and a small bed.

“Wtf…”

“I was planning on placing this thing outside, but I’m not open for business yet so I’ll do it later.”

“So you’re planning on me sleeping with that thing looking at me?”

“Yes…” Mike then gave both Kim and I some cash. “I want you guys to go shopping, we need to stock up on supplies.” Ada then ran up to me and handed me the vampire radar, “You’ll need this just in case.”

“Aight, I guess we’re gonna start walking.”

“Who said you where walking?” Ada then slapped both Kim and me in the face teleporting us to the shopping district.

—

That hurt…

The area we were teleported in was a noisy large crowded area with a ton of neon signs placed everywhere on buildings.

I turned my head and was greeted by a large line of around 30-40 people, “Hey look, what do you think that huge line is for?”

“I think it’s an expensive burger place, I’ve heard it’s really good.”

“Did you ever try it before?”

“I steal from people so I can afford food, what makes you think I could afford food from here?”

“I dunno, wanna line up for it? I’ll pay.”

“Sure, sounds fun.”

-Twenty minutes later-

“WE HAVEN’T EVEN MOVED A FULL METER YET, WHY IS THIS LINE TAKING SO LONG!?” I yelled.

“I THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE FUN!” Kim yelled.

The man in front of us then turned around and shushed us, “What do you mean? This is fun…”

“How is standing in line fun?”

“This is our religion, we stand in a line that never moves every Tuesday. It is a metaphor on how even if we do anything in our lives we will not impact the future for we are small.”

“That’s… depressing.”

“Indeed it is, our prophets Pop and Lemon said so, they are both highly intelligent and adorable.”

Holy sht… this guy is apart of a cult…

Kim then slowly turned to me and whispered in my ear, “I think this guy is in a cult…”

“I know…” I whispered back.

We then both looked at the cultist and awkwardly stepped out of the line, “We’ve gotta go to the toilet, we will both be back…” I say to the cultist.

“No worries we have a bucket, let me just yell for it.”

He has a poop bucket…

“THEY’RE COMING OUT RIGHT NOW!” Another cultist near the front of the line yelled.

“OH MY GOD REALLY? GUYS, YOU CANNOT MISS THIS PERFORMANCE!” He then pulled us back into the line and jumped with joy. “OAHGAJKSDNFGJKASHDFUIASDHF IT’S POP AND LEMON!” He squealed as he jumped all over the place.

Kim then slowly turned to me and looked at me with confusion, “What the fck?” She whispered to me.

A loli wearing a red and white gothic dress jumped out of the front of the line, she had long hair and a giant red ribbon tieing it up. “Heellloooooooo everyone, I’m Pop!”

“Hello, tello Pop!” The whole line replied.

Another loli wearing the same outfit in blue jumped out of the line as well, she had short hair and a giant blue ribbon on top of her head. “And I’m Lemon!”

“Hello, tello Lemon!” The whole line replied again.

“And together we’re… SAY IT TOGETHER GUYS!”

“P O P A N D L E M O N!” The line shouted.

“Pop and Lemon!” The two girls yelled as they began to start dancing.

“Only an idiot would like this stuff…” Kim sighed.

“I AM THAT TYPE OF IDIOT AND I LIKE THIS STUFF!” The cultist said as he began jumping for joy.

I then tapped Kim on the shoulder and whispered in her ear, “I think we should get out of here…”

“Yeah, I agree…” Kim replied.

“Today we shall pick a lucky person to come with us backstage to meet us personally!” Both of the girls then stopped dancing and pressed a button.

“NO WAY ASDJKBAHKSDFBAHJSSBGAEHJGBAKWEB!” The cultist began to squeal like a child.

“And our lucky winner is!” A spotlight then spun around the whole area.

I think you already know what happened…

The spotlight was pointed directly at me… “That cute boy right over there!”
