"So, where are we going?" Lena asked while laying down on the floor. She was almost on the verge of collapsing.
"I don't know. Let's see where she takes us." Alexa shook her head and all of them rested for ten minutes. After ten minutes, the spaceship landed on the ground while Scarlet, the female archer asked everyone to get off.
When everyone was out, the spaceship transformed back to the hoverboard below Scarlet's foot. Upon looking from close, they found the girl was very beautiful. She had a pale face with brown hair. Her boobs were almost D-cup sized pressed by a black tight jacket.
She was wearing tight black pants that complement her cold look and a black jacket.
"Scarlet, thanks for coming to help us!" Alexa rushed towards her and cling into her embrace. Unlike males, she seems very fond of females.
"Of course, I would come for my friends." Scarlet laughed a little as she fondles her hair and spoke.
"Thank you for saving us!" Lena walked at the front and bowed down a little. Others followed her actions and did the same.
"In a time like this, saving people is very crucial. We are already at the edge even though it has only been one and a half-day. The entire Ethen State is in chaos. Currently, the most peaceful place would be the southern part of the Ethen State but to reach there, we need bigger force."
"I am currently trying to gather forces so that we can travel from the western part to the southern part. Do you want to join me?" Scarlet didn't have a little bit of cold aura when she spoke with Lena. That surprised her because she thought Scarlet would be a cold-type girl.
Lena turned around and looked at everyone else. Everyone nodded their head and understanding their intention, she turned back and nodded her head.
"Good! I used the Stagroar satellite to scan the Western Part. Currently, there are only a few groups in the entire Western Part. The nearest region has two groups. One group is currently at a mall consisting of eleven members, and another group has five members."
"Former is rather at the safe place while latter was surrounded by the group of monster. It seemed those monsters were already attacking them. We should pick up the people from the mall and then visit the house if the people still lived till we get there." Scarlet smiles brightly when she saw them agree and explained the situation.
"Till we get there? Aren't we using the NTHB Ver.5.0?" The boy who was taking care of Lucy asked with uncertainty in his tone.
"No, I can't use it for normal transportation. Unlike other vehicles, NanoTech uses the energy from Dark Energy Crystal. I can't afford to use it for normal cases. Don't worry, we can reach the mall till the evening." Scarlet bitterly smiled and shook her head.
Hearing her words, most of them got disappointed. They joined her because of the NTHB. Now when she revealed that she wouldn't use the spaceship, they were getting disappointed.
"But, I don't understand. One Dark Energy Crystal costs twenty million dollars. You can buy the vehicle that costs twenty billion dollars but you can't use the dark energy crystal that costs only twenty million dollars?"
"If you use the dark energy crystals, you can easily send us to the Southern Part. But, you are not doing so. Don't tell me you are using this situation as an advantage to form a group for yourself?" Suddenly, one of the girls asked her an irritating question.
It was irritating for Scarlet at least.
"Miss Scarlet, if that is your reason for inviting us, then I'm sorry I can't join you." Another girl also took an opportunity and spoke with a disappointed face. The place where they had landed was relatively safe. So, her decision was to spend seven days in this place.
"Miss Scarlet, I agree with Bella. If you are going to be greedy in this situation, I am afraid, I can't join you either." Another boy spoke which made Lena and Alexa slightly angry. Lena didn't speak but Alexa was Scarlet's friend.
Seeing her friend treated like that, she yelled "Andrew, Bella, Mila, do you have any no shame for speaking like that? She not only save your life but also give you a ride. How can you say her greedy?"
"If not? She possesses billions of dollars and she is greedy enough to hide her wealth in a dire situation like this. If she could use her wealth, we can not only take those people from the mall but also return back to the southern part tonight." Hearing Alexa's words, Mila rebuked. She kept pointing her index finger at Scarlet and looking at other people.
That gaze inspired other people. Slowly, the number increased on the Mila side making the numbers equal on both sides.
Seeing this, Scarlet was little anger. Her aura was turning colder and colder. Seeing this, Mila snickered "See, I told you she just wanted to control us. Now, we try to rebel she wants to use the force."
While aspiring other teenagers, she walked in front of Scarlet and shouted "Don't think just because you have S-Rank talent and billions of dollars, you can control other's life. You just want to be a leader without sacrificing anything. Hell no! I don't want such a leader."
Saying so, she turned around and walked away with her newly formed group. From sixteen to eight including Scarlet remained at that same place.
"Scarlet, I am really sorry. I didn't think those people would be so ungrateful." Alexa turned her head at Scarlet and apologized with few teardrops on her eyes. At this moment, there were only seven of them remained from the old group.
Alexa, Lena, Tina, Lucy, her caretaker plus boyfriend, timid boy, and a short girl wearing Yukata, an ancient dress of Tokyo State. This state lies in the eastern part of the Asia Continent. It was quite weird to see the people of Tokyo State at Ethen State.
"It's okay, I know people heart seeks benefits. They just want to be alive and the best way they think is by hiding from those creatures from the hell. And, this place seems pretty safe since the monsters from this place have traveled to that house." Scarlet shook her head and didn't blame her.
"Sorry for the offense but why are you not using dark energy crystals? With your family background, you surely do not lack them, do you?" Alexa released a heavy breath of relief. But, she got more curious and asked with confusion on her face.
"Actually, I do lack dark energy crystals. You know my family rules, right? I can't ask for more than anything that my family gives me. I had to fight for it. And, during my innate ability evolution, I needed a lot of energy. So, I got no choice but to use every dark energy crystal I possessed." Scarlet bitterly smiled and explained.
"So, that's it!" Alexa who seemed to be her close friend instantly understood the situation and nodded her head. Suddenly, she remembered something and hurriedly spoke "I think we should introduce each other first. Since I know both, I will introduce you to each other."
Hearing her words, everyone nodded their head. Alexa pointed at Scarlet and spoke "Let's start with Scarlet first. Her full name is Scarlet Stagroar. Some of you might have heard this surname. She is not from Ethen State."
"When she reached ten years old, she was sent here to further continue her study. She is from the Stagroar State. As you have guessed, the entire state belongs to her family. But, they have the rule of 'Strength is King'. So, basically, you have to win the resource based on your talent and strength."
"She and I became friends at the age of ten. And, she is Lesbian and currently, my only girlfriend." Saying so, she clings into Scarlet's embrace. Then, she looked at the timid guy and said "Sorry, but she has a fear of relationships with the opposite gender. So, you have no chance."
Hearing her words, everyone's face twitched. Scarlet got extremely embarrassed and pinched Alexa on her waist.
"Ouch! Hey, I am sorry. She is a Lesbian but her boyfriend is her little brother. He is boyfriend less, servant more. By the way, is he coming back after this war?" A handsome face came to her mind as she remembered her little brother.
"Alexa, we don't have all day." Suddenly, Lena's cold voice rang in her ears making her trembled. She nodded her head with fear and pointed her hand at Lena, explaining "She is Lena. Her innate ability is C-Rank Muscle Hardening. She is like an elder sister to me. We were friends from an early age but she went to another academy."
Then, she pointed her finger at Tina and explained "Her name is Tina. She is Lena's cousin. Her innate ability is also C-Rank Giant Eagle Transformation."
Then, she pointed at Lucy and her boyfriend, explaining "Her name is Lucy and he is Koby. Both of them awakened C-Rank Fire Element. But their element is a little surprising. Each of them possesses half of the fire element. It's not an exact fire element rather a powerful flame that was separated in two parts."
"And, they can combine by a certain method. You know that method, right?"
