Chapter 186: 187

Lucky 187

Nikki cleaned the wound and covered it with a bandage. Calix was looking at her the whole time. 

Nikki didn't know what to do but to avert her gaze. She was not used to that kind of gaze, Calix was looking at her with awe and lust but Nikki couldn't comprehend it. Nikki could never understand it. The terms awe and lust were not in her dictionary, they were usually ridicule and disgust.

That's why she didn't know how to act with Calix. This was her first time. 

"I- It's finished."

She whispered weakly, trembling. 

"Ah, thanks. Although you shouldn't have wasted your time. It's just a small wound anyway."

He shrugged. 

"I insist. It's my fault so I have to do it."

She replied, still looking down. She was afraid to look in his eyes. This guy was dangerous, she understood it. She had her reason why she was in this unit and it was definitely not about Calix, or so she thought. 

"I'm sorry for hurting you."

She repeated. Ashamed of herself. The hammer was important to her. 

"No, I told you it's fine. Besides, I hurt you too. Are your ribs okay?"

Calix won't hurt a woman without a reason. 

"N- no, I'm okay. It doesn't hurt at all."

Nikki strongly nodded. She even tapped her ribs and she didn't wince, showing that she was fine. 

"Is that so? By the way, I didn't know that your hammer can speak dirty like that. He's a pervert."

He chuckled. He realized that every Ancient Runic Weapon has its own characteristic. 

"Hm? What do you mean?"

Nikki tilted her head. She didn't know what Calix was saying. 

"Huh?… Ah, no, never mind. Maybe I'm just hallucinating or something. Haha!"

He laughed it off. He realized that Nikki couldn't hear Corco's voice. Perhaps there was a condition for Nikki to hear the voice, just like what happened to Calix. 

"Hallucinating? A- are you fine?"

However, when Nikki heard that Calix was hallucinating and heard some voices, she immediately became pale and touched his forehead.

"Phew, thank God."

She sighed in relief that Calix was not sick. 

Calix laughed, seeing her reaction. 

"W- why are you laughing?"

She blushed. She was not used to this. 

"Nothing, it's just ironic that you touched my forehead just like how I touched yours, I mean, I'm talking about your forehead. Because you fainted earlier! That's right."

He defended himself. He almost thought that Nikki would deem it out of context. 

However, Nikki smiled and scratched her cheek. 

"Thank you for taking care of me."

She added. She recalled that Calix saved her when she lost consciousness. She confirmed that Calix was a good guy. 

"You know…"

Calix narrowed his eyes, looking at her. 

"Hm?"

"You are pretty if you smile like that."

He honestly said it. He didn't have any bad intentions. 

"W- wah!!!"

Nikki's expression turned from shock to embarrassment. Her face became red like a tomato. That single line destroyed something in her.

'That was the first time that someone says I'm pretty… Just like…'

She recalled someone and her expression turned serious. She looked at Calix, her eyes were so cold. Her heart was aching just remembering the bastard. 

"Nikki? You okay?"

"I'm okay… Can you please leave now? I want to sleep. Don't worry, I will help you next time if you have a problem."

Her attitude turned 180 degrees as if she covered her true emotions. Even her whisper-like voice was cold. 

"Okay… Make sure to take care of yourself."

"I will."

Calix was confused. Nikki was just smiling a few seconds ago, yet her expression became frigid. 

"Bye."

Nikki closed the door and Calix was left alone in the hallway. 

"Strange…"

He touched his bandage. He decided to go to his room and take a rest too. After all, they have a job tomorrow.

……  

…

"Kuck…"

Nikki groaned and curled in her bed. She was hiding it but her ribs were aching like hell. She did her best to hide the pain, but Calix harmed her with just one punch. 

"… I hate this… Why do I have to feel this again."

She swallowed her groans and clenched her fists. Her body hurts but her heart was aching more. 

She endured it. After all, she was the first one who attacked Calix. The guy was innocent and just protected himself. It was self-defense. Furthermore, Calix helped her when she was sick. Even now, she felt that her head was spinning and her stomach was churning. 

She wanted to forget that bastard but Calix made her remember him again. 

"That smile... that fucking smile."

She couldn't believe that Calix, an unknown guy would affect her like this. The force behind that punch almost popped her liver. 

She closed her eyes. She was tired. She was just doing this for her one and only...

...

Two days passed and their schedule returned to normal. These two days, Nikki was a bit aloof but she continued fighting the Aberrants with no problem. She didn't want to show any reason to be fired. 

"Hm, not bad. She actually has stamina."

Anyway, both Marianne and Scarlett were amazed at her perseverance. It was obvious that Nikki was a bit sick these past two days yet she still joined them and accomplished her job. 

As for Yuna, that woman was too carefree to think about other people. She just wanted to flirt with Calix but she was holding herself in front of Nikki. 

They were having sex in their rooms these days, unlike last time where they could fuck in the kitchen all they want. 

The three didn't think of Nikki as a rival because her massive size was already a turn-off for them.

'Who likes giant women? Not me.'

As for Calix, the guy was just doing his job without any hassle. Whenever a monster appeared, he would pull the trigger and blast its head off. 

Right now, their location was updated and they were now at the small island four hundred meters away from the Port. Because of Yuna's Term Attribute, the higher-ups decided to give them a mission to study the island and immediately report to them if they find something interesting. 

Apparently, a group of Umibozos was setting the island as their territory.

"Umibozos are small, around a meter at most, but they are dangerous because of their ability to shoot paralyzing needles."

Marianne said to them. She experienced fighting 2nd-Class Umibozos. She could say that Umibozos were the pests of the ocean, more than the Shokoys.
