Chapter 35 - I'm a prisoner?

Laying on a large hospital bed a boy no older than 16 was asleep, an antiseptic smell lingered in the room, as a large monitor displayed his vitals, next to the boy a large burly man with brown hair and emerald green eyes lit a cigarette

'Screw that old man' the burly man thought  'he made me leave my mission just to come babysit some bastard child, he doesn't even look that strong, yet he not only managed to kill a fellow student but a teacher, a FUCKING teacher not just any any ordinary teacher but one that teaches at Limitless Academy, not even I could do that without a struggle and they say he done it with a swing of his hand they had to have exaggerated, he doesn't possess any strength, hell he's literally the lowest ranked student in his whole department

While the man was stuck in his thoughts, Bellators eyes fluttered, as a disgusting smell of cigarettes invaded his nostrils, his mind laced with confusion as he had yet to fully awaken, his head like a pair of drums felt as though it was being hit continuously and that mixed with the disgusting stench of cigarettes left him even more disoriented

The man seeing Bellators eyes flutter was excited, he had been stuck guarding Bellator for 3 whole weeks and had been dying from boredom, and now that he saw him awaken he couldn't wait for an opportunity to leave that god forsaken infirmary

'Where am I?' Bellator thought his mind reeling, he was in continuous pain as every muscle in his body seemed to throb

Slowly trying to turn his neck, a man smoking a cigarette could be seen

'What the fuck is a gorilla doing in here' Bellator thought look as the man bulky physique that mixed with his giant bushy beard, gave off the impression of a gorilla 

"So you're finally awake" The man said excited

"Who" Bellator tried to speak but his voice came out raspy 

"That doesn't matter let's go" The man exclaimed pulling off all the machines connected to Bellator

Grabbing Bellator's body like a ragdoll, the man through his body over his shoulder and started running out the room

'That fucking hurts' Bellator thought, his body, felt like thousand of needles were stabbing him and the feeling only intensified with every step the man took

The man leaving the infirmary dashed through the hallways, his speed unbelievable as Bellator's body dangled

Arriving at the principal's office, the man didn't even bother to knock, as he kicked the door open

The principal didn't even seem surprised as he just looked at the kid dangling on his shoulders

"You said I must bring him here as soon as he wakes up" The man said a hint of annoyance on his voice

"Kevin you brute, does he look like he's in any condition to to leave the infirmary" Rectrix responded pointing at Bellator who by now had long passed out from the pain

"Tch, he was awake just now" Kevin said surprised Bellator had passed out

"Hey wake up" Kevin said slapping Bellator's cheeks

"Just take him back to the infirmary" Rectrix said sighing

***

In a large room a man could be seen angrily grumbling, as he stared at Bellator 

Bellators eyes fluttered awake again, his consciousness having returned, the headache had disappeared but his body still vibrated with pain

Looking around the room, he caught sight of the same gorilla which had dragged him around previously 

'What the fuck is wrong with that gorilla' Bellator thought pissed, he had only met this man and he was already dragging him around

Nurses were also all around him each checking his vitals or any other complications

"How long until he can leave" Kevin asked, grumpy. he had wanted to leave that infirmary since the first day he arrived

"He should be fine in a week" A blond female nurse responded

"A WEEK" Kevin shouted, he had thought at most he would have to spend another day there

'Fuck this' Kevin thought, immediately 2 potions appeared in his hands one a light green colour and another a light blue colour

Going to Bellator he didn't even speak to him before  forcefully opening up his mouth and shoving the potion down his throat

'Who the fuck is this psycho' Bellator thought swallowing the green potion, immediately the pain in his body subsided and he could slowly move

"Fuck you" Bellator said his raspy voice having returned to normal

Kevin ignored Bellators words before shoving the blue potion down his throat, Bellator could feel his body getting better as strength entered his body

"Both that low tier mana potion and that low tier health potion cost 10 000 UC, I better get my money back" Kevin  said annoyed

"Now how long until he leaves" Kevin asked the nurses

"About 2 hours" The nurse said 

"OK" Kevin said before lighting another cigarette 

"Who are you?" Bellator asked facing the man

"You're guard" Kevin responded

"My guard?" Bellator asked confused"So what you're supposed to protect me? "

" Protect you? "Kevin exclaimed" I'm not here to protect you, I'm here to protect others from you"

"So what you're saying is, I'm a prisoner" Bellator asked angrily

"Yes, if need be I am allowed to end your life so don't make this job more annoying than it already is" Kevin responded "Let me put it like this, if I saw you being beat up  I would probably just stand there and laugh, but if I saw you beating someone up, I'll beat the shit out of you"
