The Cheat Seed - Chapter 67
The Alumni meet was officially over. Marcus and Dave followed the panicking crowd. Professor Jules had just broke the news that humanity only had 2 more days to defeat ‘The Home of the Nine Tails’.
“They’re being scared for no reason..Pfft”
Marcus snickered.
“What do you mea…”
Dave thought about snapping at his friend for being so ignorant but cut his voice off when he remembered the dude beside him had killed 3 Gods.
“Yep..Pffft”
Dave joined in with his unique snicker, which started deep at first and came out as a squeak.
They looked at Gabriel scurrying in front, pushing others out of his way and then wiping his hands in his handkerchief as if showing that he was disgusted.
No one was focusing on Gabriel, they couldn’t. The SC ranked Dungeon was going to open in in more two days and none of the Revokers who entered the Dungeon had succeeded in going past 10 meters from the spawn point.
(Spawn point is similar to the starting point. Remember it is not a ‘respawn’ point where people spawn even after death. Once a Revoker enters the Dungeon, they’ll be surrounded by a Blue glowing circle. The Circle’s size is adjusted according to the number of entries. The Spawn Point can be also used as an Exit point if things go wrong during the raid)
But the main reason they were panicking was because Professor Jules had asked each and every one of them to participate in the mass Dungeon raid happening tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
Dave and Marcus overheard two guys in front whisper something.
“But it’s not like we’ll die right?…”
“Yea I heard Cypher will arrive tomorrow after his mission in Perple.”
“Then there’s no reason to fear the Nine Tailed Foxes..Cypher will take care of it anyway”
Marcus’s eyes shot up in surprise. He had completely forgotten about his role model after his return. He remembered the last RGC Battle he had watched when he was sixteen.
But his thoughts danced all the way to the point where he thought about the situation where he had to battle against Cypher. Would he win? or would he lose?. He defeated 3 gods, but could Cypher beat them too ??.
Marcus thought, Cypher had mastered his Seed to its pinnacle. If he had to fight a lower God or Cypher who mastered his Seed, then he would have instantly went for the God.
Because a person who has unlocked all of his Seed secrets could be easily compared to a God…Or something more than a God.
Marcus kept on thinking as someone tapped him on his shoulder. Dave’s voice brought him back to reality, Marcus nodded after he shook his head and his thoughts.
“So..You have a way to deal with the SC ranked Dungeon too??”
Dave’s voice was clear.
“Ah, You don’t have to worry about that”
Marcus answered with a smile.
“Sure thing..Hehe”
………………………
The Alumni were accompanied by Miss Sylvie and Professor Jules as they walked through the bustling hall and finally to the outside.
The Two Teachers stopped at the entry gate and bowed to them as everyone got out.
“Please…We need your help.”
Miss Sylvie pleaded.
“Don’t worry..Tsk..My Brother and Cypher will finish of the stupid Foxes”
Gabriel spat, his face twisted with hurry and annoyance.
Dave and Marcus snickered in unison and Gabriel heard them.
“HUH??? Who Dares??”
Gabriel shouted at their direction.
“Don’t ask like you don’t know stupid”
Marcus smirked.
Gabriel’s veins throbbed as he stepped towards him.
“LET ME HEAR YOU SAY THAT AGAIN”
“With Pleasure bruv….STUPID *Pause* GABRIEL”
Gabriel’s fist puffed up with water surrounding it as it made it’s way through the air towards Marcus.
Marcus looked at the fist and snorted as if he was bored. It was Dave who blocked the attack with his palm.
*Fist*
*Thunk*
Dave stopped Gabriel’s attack with a jolt. He didn’t move from his place. It was as if the fist nicely stopped at his right palm.
“No fighting at the School”
Dave grinned.
Gabriel tore his arm away from him and walked towards his horse carriage. Before closing the door behind him, Gabriel shot a quick glare over to Marcus but recieved a Wink from the Manbunned youngster.
“Meathead”
“True”
Marcus chuckled and turned towards miss Sylvie.
“Don’t worry Mam…we’ll take care of the dungeon”
He grinned as he placed his hand over Dave’s shoulder. Dave smirked alongside him.
The others gave Marcus a look as if they all cried ‘WHO ARE YOU??’
……………………..
The Alumni were decreasing in numbers gradually as they set off to their homes. Marcus and Dave were walking together towards the repaired Gate when a girl’s voice called out to them.
Marcus turned and narrowed his eyes at her. It was Alisha Eleanor.
“Huff..You guys walk too fast”
She chuckled.
“Yea right”
Marcus pouted and turned, virtually showing her that he wasn’t interested.
Alisha’s eyes shot up in surprise. It was the first time a male had ignored her. Her Ego got hurt.
She planned a sly plan and called out to Marcus again.
“Hey you..I don’t remember you…Can we meet in the evening…”
She said, her eyes were cooking something and Dave noticed.
“You mean like a Date?”
Dave chimed in.
“Ah..Yes”
She replied, Alisha thought her plan was going on smoothly.
Dave was sure now. She got dumped by Gabriel.
Marcus turned around with a jolt. His eyes started tracking the girl in front of him. He looked her first from the toes and ran them till her head.
She was perfect in every sense. Alisha had a nice curvy shape, Her face was clean without any acne marks or black spots. It must’ve have been makeup but she seemed to be a natural beauty and her stuff was on the bigger side. (You know what I mean..Ehem)
“Hi, I am Alisha..You do remember me right..But I have no idea about who you are”
She asked as she saw him looking at her, her hands extended, motioning him to shake it.
‘Phase 1 success’
Her thoughts screamed.
Marcus put his hand on her’s to a shake.
“Hello Alisha, Nice to meet you..And yes I do remember you”
Marcus replied with a handsome smile. He remembered how she had humiliated him that day.
“Your Name?.”
She looked as if she was trying hard to pry it out.
“You’ll know it in the evening”
Marcus said.
“Oh you mean you’re ready for the date?”
Marcus shook his head sideways.
“Eh?…”
Her voice carried surprise.
Marcus took his hand from hers and once again looked at her. She was beautiful!!. So there was no way he could say no to her right??. That’s why Marcus said.
“I ain’t interested….”
Marcus paused and he turned around. His head tilted and the sun hit his face. His eyes glared at Alisha from it’s corner and she almost slipped under his pressure as he continued.
“Get Lost ….. Bitch”
