"Jena It's been hours at least let him be for a few…" Before amber could finish her statement she met Jena's gaze and she kept quiet and just walked away.
The look in Jena's eyes would scare anyone, she looked like a cornered beast that was desperate to do anything to escape and get what they wanted. Funnily these were Jena's exact emotions at the moment, she was willing to do anything to save him.
"This wasn't the plan… It wasn't the plan at all!" Jena screamed as the tears just kept streaming down. "I'm going to find the bastard that did this and make him suffer. System review mission to save the overlord," Jena said with rage in her eyes.
Ding!! 'Mission loaded'
Ding!! 'Mission: Rescue the Overlord. [Difficulty: S, Reward: Skill: Moving on clouds {Description: This movement skill lets you move extremely swiftly and almost soundlessly, Relic remark: This skill is great for assassination and could save you in a battle}, Hover Bike x1 Time limit: 48hours, Energy restoration pill x1 {Grade: S}. Penalty: Loss of mission rewards and 10,000 E.P {energy points}, James will die}. {Status: Failed, Mission penalties already administered. Time to James' death: 2 hours}'
"So everything i've been doing even increasing the efficacy of that pill to 85% is to no avail because I failed that mission and that's fair"
Ding!! 'Your efforts weren't futile you were able to postpone his death to 10 hours but his death is inevitable the skill that was used on him is far too powerful, it was used a long time ago to protect various secrets of great importance. The skill kills literally places their soul in trap that works on either end. If one person tells the secret the other dies and they in turn will die, the same happens if one of the victims of the skill dies, the others will also die. That is why victims of this skill are often prepared to die in any scenario given, but using it on a child is rather unprecedented I must say'
"So in essence James has been bound to die the minute this skill was used on him and there is no way I can revive him no matter what I use" Jena said laughing
Ding!! 'That is accurate'
"Is it possible to kill him immediately, like numb the effects of the pill or boost it to an extent where he can hear me and talk for just a few seconds" Jena said as the tears rolled down more and her smile became wider.
Ding!! 'A boost is possible but it'll require all the life energy you have left. And immediately the boost is done, he will die plus the boost will only last 10 seconds'
"Do it" Jena said decisively
Ding!! 'Do you wish to confirm this request?'
"I said do it, I wasn't joking!" Jena said
Ding!! 'Request confirmed'
Ding!! 'Boost loading'
Ding!! '10%...30%...50%...70%...90%...100%'
Ding!! 'Countdown beginning: 10'
"James! James I'm sorry I'm really not mad at you, really I'm not" Jena said crying
"Well that's not surprising, I can't even afford to be mad at you right now… Dead men tell no tales and I'm dead sure they don't have time to be mad at people" James said laughing
"No James I'm sorry I really am… I should've listened I shouldn't have hidden the truth about your dad and feigned anger to protect you. I'm sorry "Jena said crying
Ding!! '5 seconds left'
Before Jena could continue any further statements James leaned in and kissed her, Jena blanked out and in that brief moment she enjoyed herself and her times with James she remembered everything and how he made her feel, as the memories came back she reminisced everything and reveled in the joy, in 4 seconds Jena enjoyed her life more than ever.
James suddenly felt the pain rushing back slowly so he stopped the kiss. When Jena noticed he stopped the kiss she was brought back down to earth and the tears came streaming back down.
"James I love you" She said hugging James tightly
"I Love you too Jena, we'll see each other again when you achieve your goals" James said smiling before he blanked out completely.
"James! James! Jaammeeesss!" Jena screamed crying as she felt his heartbeat stop.
The amount of pain Jena was in right now was simply indescribable, it was worse than anything she ever felt before. As Jena wept uncontrollably the hatred for whoever that did this to James grew. The only words that kept repeating in her head was "We'll see each other again when you achieve your goals". "James don't you worry, I'll achieve my goals soon enough and then I'll some to be with you, don't you bother yourself. A lot of people will pay for this, the whole world will pay!" Jena said angrily
