143 Chapter 135 - "Are You An Alien?"

UK, London. Rei is walking on a street with Terence as her 'bodyguard'. They are looking for a pink building which is supposed to be Maria's house in London.

"According to the GPS given by Lex, it should be somewhere nearby." said Terence.

"But if the GPS is accurate, a pink building should be quite easy to find." said Rei, a little confused.

"Well, the GPS could go wrong sometimes though, but Your Highness, why are you looking for Maria's house? He is in another dimension right now." Terence asked, quite curious.

"Well, I have my own reason." said Rei, and Terence nodded in response.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile. Japan. Xenoo brought Codie to a tunnel with his bike.

"This tunnel is rumored to be cursed, a lot of people have gone missing after entering this tunnel after 5 pm. Your mission is to pass through this tunnel after 5 pm and investigate about that rumor." said Xenoo with a serious look.

"Ah! I see. A noob quest huh?" said Codie, with a slight disdain.

After a few minutes, Xenoo looks at his watch. "It's 5 pm. Let's go." said Xenoo.

"Really? I thought I could handle this on my own." said Codie, Xenoo did not give any response.

And so, they entered the tunnel.

The tunnel looks no difference compare with a normal tunnel, the only weird thing about it is that pale and continuous wailing sound from the deepest part of the tunnel.

"To be honest, this wailing is a bit creepy." said Codie.

"You're scared? It's not yet too late to turn back right now." said Xenoo, a bit provocative.

Provoked by Xenoo's words, Codie speeds up his steps, walks deeper into the tunnel. Xenoo smirked.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Black Cross quarter. Sal is viewing a map that shows the interior of the tunnel Xenoo and Codie are located right now, then he smiled.

"It's time. Athena, let's go." said Sal. "Aye!"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tunnel.

"Hey! Senior Xenoo, I wonder why is your name Xenoo? Is there something to do with alien or foreign species." Codie jokingly asked, again without proper consideration.

"Both are accurate." said Xenoo, which is totally out of Codie's expectation.

"Eh? Are you serious?" Codie is totally confused.

"Curious? Let me show you." said Xenoo with an evil smile.

Xenoo stared at Codie with a really disturbing smile, a tiny metallic insect-like creature crawl out from his right eye and flies into Codie's right eye. (ugh!)

Then Xenoo suddenly collapsed onto the ground like a totally lifeless doll while Codie starts walking deeper into the tunnel.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Later, Xenoo slowly regained his consciousness, the first person he that gets into his eyes is Athena who is poking his head as always.

"Athena, can you please stop poking my head? This body shell is not a toy." said Xenoo, who quickly sat up in order to prevent Athena from continues to poke his head.

"Seriously, if you feel so precious about your 'shell', don't simply leave it here just like that, just to remind you, we are in a tunnel where cars will be passing by... Despite of been cursed." said Sal while helping Xenoo to stand up.

"Last time it's even worse, you just left your shell on the battlefield." said Athena.

"Ah... That was an unexpected accident, I underestimate that angel." Xenoo tries to find an excuse.

"Excuse rejected." said Athena.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile London. Rei and Terence finally found that pink house which is actually hidden behind some tall trees.

"Hmm... This place is so well hidden huh?" said Rei.

They entered the house and saw a childish Ruby running around the house like a hyperactive child. Rei slowly approached Ruby with her magic aura slowly oozing out in an offensive way. She raised her hand towards Ruby's face...

"Stop it, Your Highness. You definitely don't want to do that." said Terence, who grabbed Rei's hand stopping her from reaching Ruby.

"Ah... You actually have the courage to stop me. Please do not forget that I'm your Queen." said Rei.

"I'm sorry Your Highness, I'm just obeying His Majesty's order." said Terence.

"Yes, and I believe that His Majesty would not be happy to see you doing that, Your Highness." said a man with blonde hair and green eyes who walk down from the stairs with some girl's toys in his hands. That's Lex, the White Knight.

"You mean it's the King's order to protect this girl?" said Rei, a bit refused to accept that.

"Here, the King's order." said Lex while handed Rei a letter in a golden envelope.

Rei read the content and left the building angrily.

"Although it's His Majesty's order, but I seriously wonder what's in his mind to actually protect this random girl without even care of Her Highness's feelings." said Lex, a bit guilty seeing Rei leaving the building.

"Well, I believe His Majesty has His own reasons. I guess I should chase after Her Highness and get her back before anything bad happens." said Terence before leaving the house, leaving Lex and that childish Ruby...
