Chapter 12: The Great Escape
12 The Great Escape
He had dark blue hair that fell down past one of his eyes. His blue eyes looked completely empty with terrible bags under them. He wore a pair of headphones that blocked out all the noises from his surroundings. He did not even bat an eye to Moby that abruptly opened the door.
Moby's mind was in shambles not being able to make heads or tales of his situation. Moby instinctively readied his Katana and was about to attack the student when he felt Avilia's voice ringing in his head.
"ARE YOU FUCKING RETARDED??!"
Moby suddenly stopped what he was doing and finally regained his senses.
"That boy does not even notice that you entered the room! You were about to ruin everything with your stupid impulses. Now go to the washroom and clean up before he notices you!" Avilia urgently pleaded.
Without even a moment of thinking, Moby demon flashed towards a door that looked like it would belong to the washroom. He swiftly opened the door and entered quickly closing it behind him as quietly as possible.
Moby leaned back on the door sighing in relief.
"It's finally safe," Moby inwardly thought.
Then his moment of comfort was abruptly halted by the sound of singing coming from the shower.
"No longer a sidekick no that's not me! Picture my booty up in 3D! I'll shake my booty! In my own movie!"
"Fuck me sideways! Why do I always have to jinx myself every damn time! I really am cursed," Moby inwardly panicked.
"The sink! Quickly wash your clothes in the sink!" Avilia screamed, making Moby promptly follow her suggestion.
Moby then stripped all the way down to his birthday suit as even his underwear was completely drenched with blood. Its previous white is now dyed completely red. Moby turned on the hot water and started scrubbing his clothes as fast as he could. Thanks to all the points Moby put in agility, he was able to clean much faster. His hands were moving so fast it seemed like a blur. It looked almost like a spinning turbine.
His extra strength also played a huge role as each scrub would have more power behind it making it clean much faster. Moby has never been so happy about a decision in his life until now. His "genius" plan (that was totally not out of panic) of assigning most of his points in agility and the rest in strength has been working wonderfully.
"Thank God for all this unexpected luck" Moby inwardly thought.
Then, another huge pain even bigger than before hit him in the head.
"Are you trying to kill your self?! Remember! You're a demon now! What kind of demon thanks, God! If you keep doing that sooner or later you will end up dead! I can't allow my successor to die in such a stupid way!" Avilia exclaimed in anger.
When Moby was on his final piece of clothing, he heard the annoying singing stop, and moments later, he heard the water turn off. Moby's hands were already burning like crazy from all the scrubbing he has been doing. His hands felt like they were about to fall off any second now. He has never felt so tired in his life, even with all his previous training regimes.
He steeled his resolve and managed to push his body past its limits to finish cleaning. He activated his "Eyes of Sin" to gain an extra 10% boost in all his stats. He only had 17 Demon Energy left because he used a demon flash (which cost 8 demon Energy) to enter the washroom. This means he can only maintain his "Eyes of Sin" for only 8 seconds.
Suddenly, He can now see a clear outline of everything that was going to happen 0.1 seconds in the future. It was almost too overwhelming for his brain to keep up with all the predictions but he somehow managed to keep up with all the predictions.
When he activated the eyes, his pupils turned red and a weird purple pattern appeared on his eyes. Moby didn't notice the changes in appearance because the bathroom mirror was all foggy.
Moby only needed 3 more seconds
Suddenly, A hand came out of the shower curtains.
At that moment Moby almost lost all hope and was about to surrender to his cruel fate.
But, instead of opening the curtains, the hand grabbed the nearest towel and took it back in.
Moby's eyes glowed again with a renewed hope. He finally finished washing his final article of clothing. Moby speed ran putting on his clothes and instantly ran out the washroom closing the door as quietly as possible in order to not alarm anyone. He got out exactly 0.1 seconds before the person got out of the shower according to his "Eyes of Sin".
Moby looked over at the bed to check if the other student noticed something but, it seemed like he was even more invested in his game than before.
Moby thought that he could get out of the room and re-enter the room pretending that he just arrived. But the time was already past curfew so that plan would not be possible. Moby decided to just wait on a chair for the student taking a shower to finish as he can predict that the guy playing video games doesn't want to be interrupted.
After 1 minute of waiting, he heard the bathroom door open.
"Looks like our missing dorm mate has finally arrived," The student said with a smile on his face.
The student had dark purple hair with accents of black on the tips. He had a well-defined body, not too skinny and not too muscular. He stood at 6'1 only an inch taller than Moby. His face was also very handsome with a sharp jawline that could slice butter. He was definitely built like a model.
Suddenly the student started laughing uncontrollably.
Moby assumed from his looks that he is most likely a stuck up high-level looking down on him after seeing his power level. Moby was preparing himself for a harsh time in his dorm until he finds a way to get rid of his dorm mates without making it look suspicious.
Then, his thoughts were suddenly interrupted crushing his previous perception.
"Why are all your clothes wet? Was the rain really that bad?? And, why are you wearing your shirt and pants both backwards and inside out! And, your shoes are on the wrong way as well! Don't tell me you went to school like that!" The student said while rolling on the floor laughing.
Moby's face became flushed red out of embarrassment. At least this confirms that he did not notice him in the washroom which is a huge weight off his conscience.
"Sorry about that! You probably have your reasons so I won't pry any further in your business. I think we both started off on the wrong foot. My name is Alex Hart. I am in the combat division just like you. it is a pleasure to meet you," Alex said with a smile while offering his hand for a handshake.
Moby had the completely wrong idea about the guy. He might not be the bully type at all. But, Moby didn't have the luxury to trust a complete stranger because he knows first hand what the consequences are.
He decided that he would act nice and try and get along with him until he figures out his true nature. The second he feels that he is a danger, he will immediately try and get rid of him. Moby looked over at his watch to see his power level,
\u003c 9490 \u003e
The second he saw the number, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets, he couldn't believe he was so strong. This was the highest power level reading he had ever seen.
Moby now really wants to stay on Alex's good side until he gets strong enough to deal with him. Moby inwardly wished for Alex to be a nice guy and that it would not come to that. But, he could not get all soft and careless now.
Moby reached out and shook Alex's hand with a smile.
"Thank you for the warm introduction. My name is Moby Kane. I hope we get along well."
Alex looked around and noticed the other student in bed still immersed in his video game.
He slowly walked towards him and whacked him in the head.
"Ray! Why the fuck did you not greet the new roommate when he entered the dorm"
"What the fuck man! I was on the final boss! You can't do that to me! That's so cruel"
"Don't be rude and go introduce yourself to our new roommate!"
"Whatever," Ray said while sighing with a bored expression.
Ray slowly walked over to Moby and also put his hands out for a handshake.
When he was lying down, you could not really tell his height. But now that he is standing in front of him, he seems really short standing at around 5'6. His watch was green instead of the normal blue and it displayed,
\u003c3750\u003e
This is about half of Alex's power level but it is still high and respectable.
"This is our resident genius, he is like an entire encyclopedia. It's like he knows everything" Alex said with a friendly laugh as he put a hand on Ray's shoulder.
"Hello, my name is Ray Gwane. I am part of the research division. Sorry for not greeting you as soon as you entered. I was honestly too busy to even notice you enter. I promise I'm a nice guy. I hope we can get along," Ray said with a straight unmoving face.
Moby made a mental note that a green watch most likely indicates that one is part of the research division.
"My name is Moby Kane. I am part of the combat division. It is nice to meet you. I also hope that we can become friends. A toxic environment in the dorms will be a bad time for everyone," Moby said with a fake smile.
