Capítulo 26: Newcomer
Mu Qingqing waited with batted breath beside her fiancé. It has been half an hour since they left. Mizuki Rei rubbed the girl's head, comforting her.
"Don't worry. Lilian Mo, that scary girl is very strong."
"I know that! My Momo is the best! My Momo is amazing." Mu Qingqing said to him, feeling offended that he would ever doubt her Momo's capabilities.
Mizuki Rei chuckled. Aish. He was somewhat bitter that Lilian Mo had thoroughly enamored his own fiancée but at the end of the day, Qingqing was still his.
And that Lilian Mo is a girl so he was no longer feeling threatened.
And it wasn't like Lilian Mo would be interested in his fiancée that way. He could tell that the girl was an insensitive block of wood who didn't seem the type to go in a romantic relationship with someone.
Though he couldn't fault her. Lilian Mo did not tell the whole story about her rebirth but he was smart enough to assume that she had gone through things that had traumatized her and made her have trust issues against other people.
Her ruthless and decisive actions also said a lot about her personality. The way she killed mutants looked natural. She did not hesitate to kill them almost as if she was used to it.
He wondered how long she fought in her past life that she looked like an automatic killing machine? Aiyoo. That sounded horribly wrong..
Lilian Mo was not a machine. He just felt like sometimes her actions were too mechanical.
At first, the idea of rebirth seemed like a foolish thing but with the apocalypse and the emergence of mutants and ability users, he would even believe in god or resurrection.
After waiting for another five minutes, they finally saw the figure of Lilian Mo. There were a few people behind her and a girl that looked like 13 or 14 walking beside her, carrying the sword that Lilian Mo was wielding.
"Momo!"
Mu Qingqing ran towards Lilian Mo, faster than Mizuki Rei could notice.
'This little girl is so smitten, she's forgotten that she has a fiancé!' Mizuki Rei brooded.
"It's great that you're back." He ended up saying.
Lilian Mo patted Mu Qingqing's head. The little girl had been rather touchy recently and would often hug her.
"Little girl, I've only been gone for half an hour."
Mu Qingqing whined. "Momo, I was really worried. I know that Momo is strong but you looked really angry back then.. "
Ah. Lilian Mo did not expect the girl to notice but she has nothing to hide so she answered, "Hm. I was indeed angry but not at you. It's fine now."
Mu Qingqing relaxed after hearing that before she curiously looked at the young girl beside Lilian Mo.
Lin Jiaojiao blinked and lowered her head, feeling embarrassed to be stared at.
"Hello.. My name is Lin Jiaojiao. It's nice to meet you... And, thank you for saving me." She bowed her head to show her gratitude to them.
Lilian Mo placed a hand on her and shook her head. "It's nothing. However, starting to day, you need to grow a backbone. The most scary thing in the apocalypse is the human heart. If you want to survive, you have to toughen up."
Lin Jiaojiao heard her words and trembled. She nodded. After her experience, she needed to stop being afraid, otherwise people would indeed take advantage of her.
Mu Qingqing glanced excitedly at Lilian Mo, thinking that maybe they were going to recruit the girl.
"Hello! I'm Mu Qingqing! Jiaojiao, you're going to join our group, right? Since Momo already gave you her sword, you must come with us! But Momo is mine! Don't think of stealing her from me!" Mu Qingqing was smiling as she said this but the last two sentence was said in a threatening tone.
Lilian Mo rubbed her neck. This little girl was so possessive. It wasn't like she was going to elope with another girl.
"Be good." Lilian Mo said.
Mizuki Rei seized the newcomer up.
"I'm Mizuki Rei. Qingqing's fiancé. Since you're joining, I want to know if you have an ability." He said in a serious manner.
Lin Jiaojiao felt shy. She was not used to being surrounded by so many people and unconsciously hid behind Lilian Mo.
"Um.. I am a barrier ability user but I don't have much experience..." She confessed. "I was captured by those men and was separated from my big brother. I have only recently unlocked my ability a few days ago.."
Mizuki Rei's eyes widened. "Barrier? That's great! We're an offensive team but it wouldn't be so bad to have a member that's responsible for defense." He then turned serious. "But you still need to learn to kill mutants. There's a limit to how much a person can use their abilities. Don't rely too much on it."
