Chapter 1025 Progress Report II - Marry us?

Being a bookworm and all, I would just accidentally gaze at a line or a block of text and just read it in a matter of seconds as a force of habit, because also stemming from being an anime enthusiast as well—especially from watching action sequences—even if I can understand Japanese and read the characters, there was this small chance that the words they were saying and what was actually written as the subtitles would be different.

And obviously, I can't just look down and take my time reading the text while the characters were wailing at each other so I needed to be quick about it or replay the scene though that would ruin it for me.

In any case, my attention was sent to the report that Morales, one of the officers the president sent over who had beef with Artem, started to dig into Quezon City instead of going with the flow of just clearing the areas around the coast.

But yeah, I should mention that he set up an outpost right on the University of the East, which was on the opposite side of the love hotel and the other university we cleared out last time, where we also first discovered the slurpers/stitchers hanging by the train station.

He was leading a group to try and make contact with the other communities located in that city, especially the ones right next or maybe even at the news station where we encountered one of their helicopters from last time but he also had an officer leading another group to slowly whittle down and clear out the train stations and the surrounding areas. n(-OVelB1n

He had other officers like Jose to whom he could give direct orders and leave important responsibilities but now that Jose was in Cuervo Heights with the Major, the one he assigned as a stand-in for Jose's absence at the harbor might be up for a permanent spot or a promotion.

'I don't mind him doing things on his own but he should've stuck with clearing the train stations further down the LRT Line 1 so we'd have another route to Iskoh's address... But yeah, it could be the president's orders for all we know...'

This was one of those times I let the president do his thing with his soldiers—even though they also almost always listen to my orders as well—but there should be something or someone really important around those parts if they'd make the executive decision to travel to those parts.

Because if it was me, and since the president had a direct line with Oscar, he'd probably do the same thing Oscar did and build up relations with our newest guests but he was probably growing tired of the guests he had on his turf because several representatives from different countries were sent to his direction.

The last thing he wanted now was more people to get into contact with or he probably just let me and Oscar handle this shit on our side of the map because that was what partnerships were for.

"Now?"

"WHAT?! NOW?!"

Allan couldn't believe his eyes, "Are you even listening dude?! I already said that when's a good time to get married— and I even wore a bow tie! You know it took me five hours to get it right?!"

"HUH?! THAT'S A CLIP-ON YOU JUST HOOK ON YOUR SHIRT—"

"I GAVE UP ALRIGHT?! THERE! HAPPY?!"

"THEN HOW DID YOU GET IT RIGHT?!"

"BY GIVING UP! THAT'S HOW! ANYTHING ELSE TO SAY?!"

"..."

"SPEAK UP, DUDE! WHAT?!"

"I give up... You two really wanna do it now?" I turned to Jenny instead, "I'm actually ordained, if that matters."

Jenny couldn't be more happy, "Wait, for real?!"

"Yeah, better to be ordained and not have to marry random people off the streets than to not be ordained and need to marry friends I met along the way, no?"
