Herro couldn't believe what he had heard just now. That Mutant is Kira's Mom? How is it even possible? How did she confirm it if the Mutant is totally different from when they are still a human?
Questions filled Herro's thoughts, causing him to lose his concentration while in battle. Then the M1 used this chance to make an attack at Herro. Herro barely managed to avoid it by rolling sideways.
"Why? How? How did you even confirm it?!" Herro asked Kira, who was a hundred meters away from him. Kira was severely injured after fighting the two Mutants and was again forced to cough a mouthful of blood that was blocking her airway.
After fighting for a long time and with her grave injuries, her legs lost their strength to support her weights and she collapsed. She was also mentally exhausted and she lost consciousness.
When Herro saw her collapse, he ignored the Mutants he was fighting and he ran towards Kira. He reached Kira in no time and then he was so shocked to see that she was filled with cuts and bruises. And she was literally bathing on her own blood.
'Her injuries are so serious and I couldn't fight while protecting her. Its better if I hide her and then kill these two Mutants.'
He lifted Kira up slowly and carried her in his arms. Then he started to run deeper inside the Military Base. M1 and M3 didn't expected their enemy to escape since they're on the losing side.
Since Mutants are not brainless creatures, they're able to conclude that Herro was not able to fight them back properly since iHerro was protecting Kira.
They then started to follow Herro. But their speed had gradually slowed because of the injuries Herro inflicted to them. So they were not able to catch up to him, but they still continued to follow his tracks.
After running for a couple of minutes, Herro reached the end of the Military Base. Then he entered the Armory room where Kira got the Electric Net Gun they used before. The Armory was already unlocked and Herro was able to enter it easily.
Herro put Kira down carefully and let her back lean on the wall. Kira had already gained her consciousness. She was still coughing some blood, but it just in small amount.
"Just stay here and let me deal with those Mutants!" Herro angrily said as he clenched his fist in anger. He retracted his claws back when he carried Kira.
Kira looked at him and then she grabbed his hand. Herro was still confused about what she said back then.
"Please don't kill them, they're my parents." Kira said while tears fell from her eyes.
Herro felt some pain in his heart as he saw Kira cried in front of him. The strong lady that was protecting him was crying in front of his eyes, he could only look away.
"Are you really sure about that? How did you even confirm it?" Herro asked Kira. It really unbelievable to recognize the Mutants because their physique is totally different compared when they're still humans.
Kira paused for a moment and then said while crying, "It was the locket that they're wearing. It stuck in their chests after they mutated. I know that they're my parents because it was my picture inside that locket."
Herro clenched his fist in anger. Not towards the Mutants but towards the cruelty of the fate. Letting this beautiful girl, in both physical and soul, suffer like this.
Herro balled his fists and smashed it to his chest and said, "I won't let this loathsome fate control my life!"
Then he looked at Kira and asked, "So what do you want me to do? Letting your parents kill me? Kira! They're already mutated and they didn't even recognize you! Why bother in sacrificing yourself?" Herro angrily asked Kira. He didn't want to die and he didn't also want to see Kira dying with a worthless reason.
"I know it was ridiculous, but I have a plan. You said that your skill can attract monsters by activating the ultimate desire they felt for the caster, right? And you can transfer the effect of your absorption, right? What I'm asking you is to transfer the effect of that skill to me and activates my parent's ultimate desire they felt for me." Kira looks at Herro with pleading eyes as she said those things.
Herro found her plan to be feasible. He thinks he can transfer its effect to Kira, but the problem is the skill will only activate if he fulfilled a certain condition.
"You know that this skill is uncontrollable, right?" It was visible on Herro's face about how stressed he is about the matter. The plan could work, but with this useless skill of him that won't activate unless he fulfilled a condition, the plan is bound to fail.
"I know and that is why I have another plan for that. Come here, I can't tell it to you loudly." Kira knew that the plan wouldn't work unless Herro activated that skill, but she had another plan for that.
Herro frowned after hearing what Kira had said and he replied with a question: "There is only two of us in this room? Why bother on whispering it? Just tell it to me."
Kira stared at him angrily and said, "Just listen to me. There's nothing to lose if you follow what I want, right?"
Herro pouted as he pondered what Kira had said and then he nodded in agreement. Then he knelt at Kira's side and extended his right ear towards her mouth.
But what happened was something Herro wouldn't expect in his whole life. Kira pulled his face and kissed him suddenly.
0.0| - Herro's shocked expression while being kissed unexperctedly.
Herro felt his blood running rampant inside him, along with his heart beating really fast. His face had turned red from embarrassment and excitement.
Although there was blood in Kira's mouth, Herro was still able to enjoy the kiss. Kira pulled Herro forward and the kiss was broken. Then Kira's mouth is in Herro's ears and she said, "I'll let you taste the Heaven here on Earth"
Herro's breathing turned ragged in excitement and it was as if there were horses running inside his heart. Then it was as if something snapped inside him and a blue panel appeared in front of his face notifying him that [A condition has been fulfilled. Activating Ultimate Scented Body!]
Then a burst of Sweet Aromatic scent exploded from Herro's body. Kira noticed the scent as it wafted to her nose and before she could be under its control, she shouted, "Absorb it now and transfer the effects to me."
Then Herro woke up from his shocked state and then he realized that Kira did that, so he will activate the skill. But even knowing that, the excitement didn't vanish, so the skill was still on effect.
[System, can you absorb the effect of Ultimate Scented Body and condense it to a pill and let Kira take it?]
[It was possible—do you want to do it now?] The system replied.
[Yes] Herro confirmed his command.
Then the force appeared in his palm. It was sucking the scent that had already scattered in the air and also the source inside Herro's body.
Since Herro had grown stronger by a couple of times, the force of his suction had also increased by several folds.
Then a pink pill appeared in his hand. Even though it was in its pill form, it was still able to release a fragrance that will incite monsters to go wild.
Herro stared at Kira angrily and said, "You better take responsibility on what you said before!"
Kira chuckled and replied, "If the result of the pill on your hand will satisfy me, then maybe I will take responsibility and gladly do it with you." Then, Kira extended her palm, asking for the pill.
Herro handed it with a pitiful look on his face after being scammed by Kira.
Kira put the pill inside her mouth and swallowed it without a single doubt or uneasiness, whether the pill is dangerous or not.
Then she felt the pill explode inside her stomach and her body started to emanate the Aromatic fragrance.
Herro and Kira stared at each other and smiled. The plan was a successful one.
Excitement filled Kira's heart and because of that excitement, she coughed some blood. Herro immediately caressed her back. Then Herro had thought about something that could help Kira in her current situation.
[System, can I transfer some of my vitality to Kira to heal some of wounds?]
[Yes you can.]
After confirming it, Herro smiled and leaned towards her. Their face was only centimeters away and Kira was shocked by Herro's sudden action. Herro suddenly kissed her without warning. Kira wanted to push him away, but with her current strength, she was not able to.
Then Kira felt something warm was entering her mouth—it was not a saliva, but something warm that she felt before. Then she remembered it finally, she felt something like this when she, heavily injured by the Mutant and Herro saved her.
She just let Herro kissed her because Herro is doing this for her. Then she felt that her wounds were closing and he was feeling livier every second passed by.
The kiss lasted for just five seconds, but it was enough for her to stand up on her own. Then she looked at Herro warmly and her face turned red from embarrassment.
