Cheat Awakening-Chapter 671 - . Fight
"I don't know what you're talking about. I don't have your pet," Though internally shaken, the boss was a seasoned actor who had managed to deceive almost his entire gang of 100+ gangsters. Naturally, he wouldn't relinquish his most valuable trump card so easily. He refused Myne's request without hesitation.
"Oh, then why don't you just open that room over there, and we'll see whether or not you have my pet?" Myne, who had anticipated this outcome, wasn't the slightest bit surprised that the other party was unwilling to return Waffle. He simply pointed at the door behind the boss and spoke calmly.
"I think you don't understand your current situation brat. You're in no position to demand anything from me. If I wanted, I could kill all of you like mosquitoes. You'd better not try to climb over my head and get the hell out of here before I lose my patience."
The boss, seeing that Myne not only possessed inside information but also seemed very confident about retrieving Waffle lost his composure and decided to take a hard line. Though confident in his abilities, he didn't want to risk reuniting Myne and Waffle, giving him any chance to take away his greatest weapon. God know if he has some kind of weird ability that counters his and releases Waffle from his control, if this happened then he may not have time to regret before losing his life.

"Looks like he's not going to give in. If you have any good plan, now's the perfect time to execute it." Myne nodded at the boss, then moved beside the woman in red and whispered to her, while vigilantly observing the approximately fifty or so mutant gangsters surrounding them.
"You'll have to pay extra for this. Now, in addition to being a delivery boy, you'll have to clean my house every day and give me a good oil massage," The woman in red who was already in a bad mood replied coldly, pulling out two long, cursed knives she had hidden inside her gown.
"F*ck! Not this shit again!"
"That's why I always say those guards at the entrance are useless."
"Damn it, this crazy woman's going to rampage again."
"I'm out of this nonsense."
Seeing the woman in red draw her cursed knives in a cool and sexy manner, the older gangsters who had witnessed her losing control previously began to exclaim and curse. Some cowardly individuals even began to slowly retreat, ready to flee as soon as things escalated.
"That idiot! I told him to check her properly!" The boss also cursed the bald guard as he saw the woman in red's heroic pose. He looked around and, seeing that his people were losing morale, he became nervous and quickly decided to act before she did, further diminishing their fighting spirit.
"Listen, everyone! Whoever kills this crazy woman today, I'll make him the vice leader of our gang! Not only that, but I'll also help him eliminate his pollution!" Although the boss was a half-baked leader and only knew how to have fun around all day long, he did possess some tricks for motivating others to work hard.
As he expected, upon hearing his grand offer, all the gangsters' eyes lit up with excitement. While their interest in the vice leader position wasn't significant, the chance to purify their pollution was something they were willing to do anything for.
After all, it was a well-known fact that the less pollution one had, the greater the chance of gaining power and living a normal life, without the fear of suddenly losing control and transforming into a mindless monster.
Fueled by greed, the gangsters disregarded their own lives and, like a monstrous horde, rushed toward Myne and his gang, ready to tear them apart.
Because the space was narrow and almost all the gangsters were surrounding Myne and his gang in a circular formation, none of them used guns or heavy weapons, fearing they would hit their own people. Instead, they decided to use their various strange abilities to overwhelm Myne and the others.
"Ocea, fly high and kill as many as you can. No need to hold back. Ted, pretend to fight, while we attract everyone's attention, go and get Waffle. Remember to be cautious. As for you..." Myne turned his head toward the woman in red, who appeared to be experiencing some sort of physical distress, trembling with sweat dripping from her forehead.
"Do you have any extra weapons?"
The woman in red had thought Myne would say something nice or make a joke to boost her morale before the final battle, but upon hearing his shameless request, she became so angry that she wanted to hack him to death. Taking a deep breath to suppress her desire to strangle him, she gave him the middle finger and rushed toward the gangsters.
"Seems like she doesn't have any. Well, anyway, go forth, children beat the hell out of these bastards."
"Woof!"
"Yes, it was time to shine."
Ocea surged forward, her excitement palpable. After uttering a phrase that only Ted and Myne understood, she took a deep breath. With a whoosh, she released a massive amount of super high-pressure water from her mouth, blasting away more than seven gangsters. They flew through the air as if struck by a high-speed car, crashing into the wall five meters behind them.
This was Ocea's innate Hydro Pump skill. But this was only the beginning. Seeing Myne about to be surrounded by the gangsters, she took another deep breath and this time shot out a water jet from her mouth. Though it appeared thin and weak, it was so sharp and powerful that it sliced a mutant in half from the middle as smoothly as a knife cutting butter.
"If only I could use my skills too, then I wouldn't have to rely on Ocea and Ted to deal with these bastards and let them steal all the limelight. What a mess," Seeing Ocea become the protagonist of the moment, drawing all the attention and even overshadowing the woman in red whom the gangsters were so concerned about, Myne sighed helplessly, a hint of envy in his voice, while retrieving the dagger from the hand of the mutant Ocea had bisected.
Then, he shone a bright light on the mutant who was attempting to smash his head with an iron rod, blinding them with his holy light.
It worked wonders as he expected, the mutant, upon contact with the light emitted from his palm, began screaming in pain as his body started to melt, because of the pain his fighting spirit extinguished instantly. Taking advantage of their disorientation, he thrust the dagger into the other party's heart, ending his pitiful life.
However, compared to his teammates, who were like wolves entering a sheepfold, slaughtering the gangsters, his efforts were scarcely worth mentioning.
Even Ted, who was on a secret mission to rescue Waffle, had already killed four gangsters, while Myne had only secured his first kill.
Let's not forget the woman in red, who had transformed into a goddess of war. Even a slight cut from her cursed knife ended a gangster's life. Dozens of mummies-like bodies lay on the ground around her, her hands and knife dripping with blood, a truly gruesome sight.
"F*ck! Where did these bastards come from? Why are they so f*cking powerful?"
The boss, witnessing Myne and his gang slaughtering his people and showing every sign of overwhelming them, grew nervous.
Though he considered bringing Waffle out to deal with them, fearing that Waffle might slip out of his control and he may then follow his previous boss's footsteps, he dismissed the suicidal thought and hurriedly ordered a random gangster beside him to call for reinforcements.
The gangster, understanding the gravity of the situation, ran out immediately. Soon, as the gangsters lost more than twenty members, loud and hurried footsteps echoed from the hall entrance. Moments later, countless gangsters, armed with various makeshift weapons, mostly iron rods and sharp objects randomly picked up from somewhere, rushed in, joining the fray and instantly increasing the pressure on Myne and the others.
But thanks to the influx of enemies, Ted, who was seeking an opportunity to slip away, quickly lowered himself and ran towards the room where Waffle was locked. Without much trouble, he reached his destination.
Finding the door locked, he first checked the boss and other gangsters, ensuring they weren't watching him. Then, he bit the iron lock hard. Thanks to his steel-like teeth and Super Bite ability, he broke the lock as if it were made of cookies, spitting out the fragments casually.
Hurriedly opening the door, he entered the room, but the scene inside left him speechless.
Waffle, whom they had gone to such lengths to rescue, was now lazily reclining in the lap of a beautiful woman, enjoying a gentle massage from her soft hands. Occasionally, another woman sitting beside him would place a small piece of cake into his mouth and playfully tickle him, making him giggle.
For a moment, Ted wondered if he had entered the wrong room. Seeing how much Waffle was enjoying himself, as if on vacation, despite the commotion outside, he couldn't believe his eyes. Clearly, Waffle didn't care about what was happening outside, or whether anyone had come to save him or not, he was more than enough satisfied with his current life.
