The engine of a sedan car roared loudly, a sign that the driver was driving fast. Sitting in the back seat, Evan sipped warm milk from a paper cup. Since that milk had been warmed up, Evan felt it was a pity if he left the drink at home.
Mimi, who was sitting beside Evan, kept twitching uncomfortably. The cellphone girl, along with Evan and Gargar, was forced to wear an all-black special forces outfit. Jon said it was to disguise their identity. Evan and Gargar didn't really mind it. At most Evan just felt a little hot, but it seemed like Mimi was more comfortable with her tight skimpy leotard.
"You really don't have to come, Evan. We only need Gargar to fight that monster." Jon said as he looked at Evan. That old man sat next to the driver, a sharp-eyed man with short and slightly curly hair who was also wearing special forces clothing. The driver had been silent since they departed and gave off an unpleasant aura all this time. Because of that, Evan felt reluctant to introduce himself.
Evan glanced at Gargar who was sitting on Mimi's right side, opposite him who was sitting on the left side of that cellphone girl. The sugar guy looked out the glass window, his face still gloomy and his hands clenched tightly.
"He will only obey me, sir," Evan answered in a lackluster tone. "Besides ...."
Evan held back his words because he thought it was very embarrassing and could make Gargar misunderstand.
"After all, Gargar is your partner and you don't want to leave him fighting alone, do you?" Jon spreads his smile.
Evan didn't answer. Hearing what was on his mind could be guessed by others, he felt uncomfortable.
Gargar turned to his master with an emotional expression. Then, he put his fingertips close to Evan's warm milk. From that finger, a few drops of thick, shiny brown liquid came out, just like melted sugar.
Evan was so shocked by the scene that he couldn't help but froze. Even when Gargar stirred the milk with his fingers, Evan could only remain silent.
"I do this so that your drink is sweeter and tastier, Master." Gargar gave his warm smile.
Evan stared at the now-brown milk for a moment, then opened the car window, and just tossed it out with the cardboard glass.
"Sorry, I littered, Mr. Jon. " Evan complained in an exasperated tone. Even though it's just sugar, that liquid still comes from a part of Gargar's body. Evan certainly doesn't want to consume something from another man's body.
Gargar covered his face with both hands, then started sobbing.
Mimi gave her master a disapproving look. "Why do you have to do something like that, Master?"
Scratching his hair in a huff, Evan chose not to answer. Maybe he really did go too far, but what he did was a response to Gargar's unreasonable behavior.
"It's okay, Mimi. Maybe I can't understand Master yet." Gargar wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. "I apologize, Master."
Evan took a deep breath. "Maybe, I'm the one who should apologize. I know you did that for me, but I still feel very uncomfortable, Gargar. "
The sugar guy stared at his master for a few moments. "Please, let me kiss and hug you as a form of my gratitude ...."
"Hell nooo!!!" Evan screamed hysterically. "Why don't you understand!? Everything you do is making me so fucking uncomfortable! You don't have to hug and kiss me to live, do you!? You .... "
Evan's speech was interrupted because the car they were in stopped suddenly. Unprepared, his body jerked forward violently. His face hit the front seat of the car. The car seats weren't too hard, but because the stopping momentum of the car is so sudden, Evan can still felt pain in his face.
"I told you. Even if you sit in the back, you have to keep your seat belt on." The car driver advised in a fierce tone.
Evan rubbed his face while grimacing with horror. Turning his head to the side, he saw Gargar's head against the back of the front seat, just like himself. Mimi experienced something worse, part of her upper body was caught between the front seat of the car.
"Use your head covering," Jon commands while wearing his own. And then he got out of the car. Like the others, he was also wearing a black special forces suit.
Following what Jon said, Evan wrapped his head with a black cloth covering his entire head and only left one big hole for his eyes. Mimi and Gargar observed the way their master put on the head covering, then put on their own.
"You must not be separated from us unless Mr. Jon ordered it." Said the driver who was also wearing a head covering.
Evan's forehead frowned. He seemed to have seen that man somewhere. It took a while for Evan to realize that maybe the driver was a member of the special forces who was seriously injured at the amusement park. He only realized it when the sharp-eyed man was wearing the head covering.
"Hey, you guys! Why are you still there!? Get out! Now!" The driver who was already outside the car carrying a rifle shouted loudly.
Gawking, Evan looked at his two partners who were also still in the car. Then, the three of them hurriedly came out.
"Holy Shit!" Evan cursed as soon as his feet hit the asphalt. He could feel a hint of heat from a distance. Many buildings were destroyed and burned. The vehicles that were there looked like scrap metal because they had been crushed. He also saw the wreck of a helicopter and a tank which was also engulfed in flames.
"I want to eat!!! Give me food!!!" The spherical monster roared in the distance while destroying everything around him.
"In the video, he's not that big," Evan said as his body started to shake. Anyone's heart would tremble at such a hellish sight.
Jon goes to Gargar. "All right, now let's hear your plan, sugar man."
Gargar narrowed his eyes to observe the monster for a moment, then said. "I will use my sticky sugar liquid to reduce his motion. After that, I will use my special move to defeat him."
Hearing the word 'special move,' Evan felt doubtful. However, he didn't have any better suggestions. So he chose to remain silent.
"But, I guess it's useless if you do it in a place full of fire like that. Your thick liquid will only melt away." Jon gave his opinion.
"Well, we can't help but get his attention to a place where there is no fire." Jon shrugged, turned to look at Evan.
Evan swallowed hard. He turned to the monster again. He's already here, it would be really funny if he ran away.
Clenching his teeth, the young man beat up his left chest to suppress his fast-beating heart, even though it didn't really help much.
And then, after taking such a deep breath, Evan wore a stern expression. He must get rid of all the fear and doubt in his heart. His determination must be strong. "Okay, I'll get his attention. The target is me. He will definitely come after me."
Gargar immediately widened his eyes. "No, Master! That is very dangerous! I'll just fight that monster myself!"
Evan gave the sugar man a firm look. "Let me help you. We are partners, right?"
