'Killing is really messy!'
Arthur thought as he moved along the boundary of the cave walls.
He had already realised that the sensation he felt after killing wasn't something he liked. It was a dark, hollow feeling.
But he was becoming more and more familiar with it.
Not only that, he was also learning things like how to stab someone properly and how to dodge attacks in close proximity.
Anyway, in the end, he was killing criminals and not innocent people. That gave his conscience some clarity and he tried to make as little sound as he could while walking.
As he walked closer to the temporary base, he encountered more and more grunts.
Some grunts had Pokemon like Zubats and Ekans with them and it was not easy to ambush them while some were bare handed and relaxed.
He attacked every single one of them as soon as he saw an opportunity. The more grunts he killed, the better it was for him in the end.
It wasn't like it was easy to ambush them either.
It wasn't a Pokemon battle where he was just trying to defeat the opponent. It was killing and the grunts were also retaliating with full strength.
Most of them had guns and one of the bullets nearly hit the side of his head once. If it wasn't for Charmeleon who deflected the bullet with his claws, he would have already been meeting his ancestors in heaven.
Aside from that, there was also once that a Zubat's poison sting had brushed against his cheeks and the time when an Ekans had nearly bitten off his arm.
All this happened because there wasn't much distance between him and the grunts. Also, the grunts were more familiar than Arthur in stuff like this.
Anyway, Arthur was somehow able to kill quite a few grunts and he was inching closer towards the base.
It was then that he ran into an embarrassing situation.
He had heard some noises coming from an empty, dark space that rock Pokemon generally used for afternoon naps. It was an open area with quite a lot of space for a few people, but there was not anything else there.
When he heard noises from there, he moved towards the space and then a jaw dropping moment happened right in front of him.
"Ahh... not there."
"Your boobs are really soft."
"Hey, man, let me feel her legs. They are so sexy."
"Take off your pants quickly. I'm so horny!"
It was a scene he had never expected to come across and his jaw dropped. Charmeleon, who was beside him, also looked at it with widened eyes.
'Threesome! And with two guys and a girl! Are they that frustrated?!'
Arthur wondered in his mind.
In front of him, two guys and one girl were pressed together in a compromising position that can never be referred to as innocent. One of the guys had almost taken off his pants and the girl's breasts were in full display.
He pondered whether he should just leave them in their act. This was an extremely awkward situation and he could see that the grunts were just trying to let out some steam.
Intruding in such a situation was rude, but only Arthur's mind was dulled with such thoughts, his body was already moving.
'Ah, I'm sorry. Continue it in hell!'
He thought and glanced at Charmeleon who rushed at the three grunts, with his claws heading towards the grunt that was closest to him.
"What is—"
The surprise attack stunned the grunts who weren't able to react properly. They fumbled up and Chameleon's claws easily went in for the kill.
The female grunt tried to take out her gun, but Arthur kicked her. Twirling a knife in his hand, he switched to a standard grip and stabbed the female grunt in the abdomen.
The female grunt collapsed to the ground and Charmeleon had already killed the two male grunts. Now, it is finally over.
"Let's hope we don't encounter more situations like this."
Arthur muttered as Charmeleon started digging up a hole to put the dead bodies in. He moved them there and closed off the hole.
'They will soon realise that many of their guards are missing. I should hurry.'
He thought and called Charmeleon back to his pokeball. Then, he started following the path in the map. He was really close to the base and after walking for 10 more minutes, he reached a gate made of metal.
'They really were able to create a base in such a short time.'
He thought and stepped toasted the door. There were two guards standing guard at the door and they all looked at Arthur with a piercing gaze.
"Who are you? What are you doing here when you should be on duty?"
One of the guards asked as he looked down on him.
"I have something to report to Lord Edgar. It's about some battle activities at one of the Zubat caves."
"You can report it to me. I will tell Chief Ronin and he will report it to Lord Edgar." The guard shook his head.
"It's really important. I need to personally see Lord Edgar."
"Like I said, you can't meet Lord Edgar."
Despite Arthur's persuasion, the guard was adamant about not letting him go inside. It was the worst situation for him and he wondered if he needed to make a scene here.
'Do I have to kill them too?'
As Arthur pondered that, the second guard suddenly spoke.
"Just let him go inside. I don't think we need to follow the rules so seriously. Hey, I will let you go inside, but don't disturb Lord Edgar. Report what you have to Chief Ronin. You will find him in Professor Li's room."
"... Thanks."
Arthur was let inside after that.
The inside of the base was filled with light bulbs and there was all sorts of stuff here and there. It indeed looked like the temporary base of an evil organisation.
Glancing all over the place, Arthur headed towards one of the rooms inside the base that was of Professor Li, the only researcher that had come to this mission.
If there was any information about the Clefairy tribe here, it would be with him.
