Bab 40: Back Home With Medusa
The week following the championship battle was a carnival in Saka.
During this week, Johnny was deeply immersed in the festivities. Medusa, with her enchanting beauty, captivated Johnny completely, and his own robust physique left Medusa equally entranced. Through this process, Medusa became entirely submissive to Johnny, both physically and mentally.
"Johnny, Topaz told me that you are ready to leave now?"
In the magnificent and luxurious palace of Grandmaster, Johnny sat opposite the High Lord with Medusa by his side. Behind Grandmaster stood Topaz, now respectful and cautious in her demeanor towards Johnny, the newly crowned champion of Saka.
"Yes, I have got what I wanted," Johnny replied calmly.
"Well, since you choose to leave, according to the rules of Saka, I can't keep you. However, the spaceship you requested before will take some time to be ready," Grandmaster said, glancing at Medusa with a hint of something inexplicable in his eyes but refraining from further comment.
"No, I will leave with Medusa today, and there is no need to prepare the spaceship. However, Grandmaster, the guard of the Fighter Zone, Rat, is my good friend. I hope you can take care of him after I leave Saka," Johnny stated.
With the system reward of distance-ignoring teleportation, Johnny didn't need the spaceship at all. Waiting for Grandmaster to prepare the spaceship would delay his return to Earth indefinitely.
Grandmaster nodded, a trace of intrigue flickering across his face. "As you wish, champion. Rat will be well taken care of."
Johnny stood, offering a nod of gratitude. Medusa rose with him, her eyes reflecting a mix of devotion and acceptance. The carnival outside continued unabated, the revelry a stark contrast to the solemn decisions being made inside the palace.
With a final look around the opulent room, Johnny activated the teleportation, and in an instant, he and Medusa disappeared from Saka, embarking on their journey back to Earth.
"This is a small matter. Your friends will live happily in Sakaar. Johnny, if there is a chance, I hope you can return. After all, there will soon be a huge statue of you here. It is a wonderful thing to see your statue often, right?"
Since Johnny mentioned that he no longer needed a spaceship, Grandmaster didn't press the issue but instead changed the subject.
Johnny smiled and nodded. In his interactions with Grandmaster, Johnny had realized that the Grandmaster was far from the foolish character depicted in movies. In fact, he was quite intelligent. Seeing Johnny's strength and potential had made Grandmaster adopt a more friendly attitude.
"Are you ready, Medusa?" Johnny asked, turning to her.
Medusa met his gaze and nodded slowly, understanding his intent.
"System, initiate. Send us to Earth," Johnny instructed mentally.
A strange spatial power emanated from Johnny, enveloping both him and Medusa. In an instant, they vanished from Grandmaster's magnificent palace.
Seeing Johnny and Medusa's sudden disappearance, Grandmaster's men were visibly surprised, while Grandmaster himself fell silent.
"The power of space... Johnny, you continue to surprise me," Grandmaster murmured to himself after a while.
Johnny and Medusa felt a wave of slight dizziness as they were enveloped in a myriad of lights and shadows, a strange transformation of space that was difficult to perceive with the naked eye.
To Johnny, it felt both like a brief moment and an eternity before the pressure of space increased, and they were "vomited" out of the rapidly changing space.
Once he felt solid ground beneath him, Johnny realized they were in a different area altogether. They stood on a dark and silent street. A slight breeze blew, scattering fallen leaves on the ground. The street was empty, and the surrounding buildings looked bleak and deserted.
"Master, is this the Earth you told me about?" Medusa asked, looking around curiously.
"Yes, Medusa," Johnny replied, taking in the familiar yet eerily quiet surroundings. "This is Earth. Though it's not always this silent. We must have arrived in a quieter part of the city."
Medusa continued to look around, her curiosity evident. "It's different from what I imagined. But it feels... peaceful."
Johnny nodded. "It can be. But there's much more to see and experience. We'll find a safe place to rest first, and then I'll show you more of my world."
With that, Johnny led Medusa down the deserted street, ready to face whatever challenges awaited them on Earth.
Johnny's eyes moved slightly, but even in the dim light, he could see everything around him clearly. Soon, he found what he was looking for: a slightly weathered road sign that read "East Manhattan Street." The sight of the sign made Johnny smile.
"Medusa, we're here. This is my home planet, Earth," Johnny said, nodding as he took a deep breath of the cool night wind, savoring the long-lost sensation. For Johnny, who had traveled through time, Earth could barely be considered his hometown, but it was familiar enough.
"Master, what should we do now?" Medusa asked, a bit overwhelmed by the strange planet despite her power.
"The most important thing now is to figure out the situation on Earth and find a place to stay," Johnny decided after a moment of thought.
While they were talking, two figures emerged from the end of the dark street.
"Damn it! I'm so unlucky today! I lost a lot of money from that bet!" one of them grumbled.
"Who said it wasn't? Wait! Look ahead..." the other replied, their attention quickly shifting to Johnny and Medusa.
The two figures' eyes were drawn to Medusa. Despite the dim light, her tall, attractive figure had a magnetic pull on any man.
"What a hot girl! Hey, girl, do you want to have some fun?" one of them called out as they moved to surround Johnny and Medusa.
As they approached, the strong smell of alcohol wafted over, making Medusa frown.
"Looking for trouble!" Medusa muttered, her patience wearing thin. She was ready to take action.
"Medusa, wait!" Johnny's voice stopped her just in time.
"Hahaha, girl, you better listen to him. Otherwise, your boyfriend won't be able to handle our fists," one of the drunks taunted. As they got closer, they could see Medusa's exceptionally charming features more clearly, and their eyes gleamed with lust. One of them brandished a dagger, shaking it threateningly.
"I was worried I wouldn't be able to figure out the situation here, but you came right to me, so don't blame me," Johnny said, a harmless smile on his face as he eyed the dagger.
Two screams pierced the dead silence of the dim street.
A while later, Johnny had extracted plenty of useful information from the two men and left with Medusa, satisfied. He also pocketed the remaining cash the two drunks had.
Not long after Johnny and Medusa disappeared into the night, an unmarked Ford slowly pulled up to the alley entrance. Several agile agents in black suits soon emerged.
Under the intense search of the agents, the only signs of life on the silent street were the two terrified, trembling drunkards cowering in the corner.
