Chương 33: Hangover (5)
"So..." Lenny talked with John that was walking beside him, "What kind of fetishes you have? What kind of woman turn you on?"
Lenny was taking John to the place he said that they were going to test out John's powers. On their way toward there, Lenny suddenly came up with this weird question out of nowhere.
"What the hell are you talking about?" John strangely looked at Lenny and decisively took a step to the side, creating more distance between them, [What's up with this kind of topic out of nowhere... You are freaking me out.]
John instantly noted to never stay around Lenny while he was drinking alcohol.
"Oh... I see." Lenny's eyes glinted with an unknown light, "You're a virgin, am I right?"
"Wha-wha-what?" John stared at Lenny, speechless and embarrassed.
"Spot on." Lenny let out a dirty laugh, "No drinking, no sex. You sure are an innocent lad."
"Shut up!" John embarrassedly shouted at Lenny.
"How about it? I will take you to the brothel so that you-"
"No, fucking, way." John instantly rejected Lenny's idea, "I won't have my first time in a... Brothel. I plan to have it with my love, and I don't plan to get into a romantic relationship so soon."
"Tch." Lenny clicked his tongue in displeasure, "Virgins..."
They walked for a while until John was able to see a giant, circular building.
John looked over it and saw that there was a huge stream of people going inside the building. John than glanced at the giant sign on top of the building, it was written 'Iron Fist Arena'.
[Don't tell me...] John switched his sight from the sign to Lenny. He saw that Lenny evilly grinned toward him, [Fuck...]
John tried to turn around and run, but Lenny caught John's arm right away.
"Don't be pussy. It's just unarmed combat, what are you afraid of?" Lenny chuckled.
"Hell no!" John got scared when he saw some buff out people signing off in the participant's line.
It was useless how much John tried to break free from Lenny's hold, Lenny's hands were like claws clutching into his arm.
Lenny dragged John all the way toward the line where the interested in be a participant go.
"Stop struggling." Lenny gave a slap at the back of John's head, "What are you so afraid. It isn't some kind of battle until death. You win as long as knock out your opponent or he give up. I'm pretty sure you have learned unarmed combat before, it's impossible that such gigantic organization such as the Terrene Protectorate wouldn't train their soldiers to be able to perform unarmed combat."
"It's not that I don't know how to fight, but look at that." John pointed at the giant and buff out people at the line, "Do you think I stand any chance against something like that!?"
"Come on... All they have is looks and strength. They are amateurs, they mindlessly swing their limbs around, hoping to hit their opponent. You will win as long as you know to properly fight."
"Yeah... Basically, it will be a one hit KO in me..." John silently mumbled.
John helplessly sighed and just let Lenny do his thing.
Slowly the line got shorter until it was John and Lenny's turn to sign up.
The person who was doing signing job was a female Floran. Her whole body was of very green shade, but on top of her head was a big, colorful flower that had petals from all kinds of colors. Her 'hair, or so to speak, was made of long, thin and dark green vines that looked like hair fibers. The eyes were completely black, it didn't had the sclera, the white part of the human eye. Even her mouth was somewhat creepy since it was possible to see some fangs coming out from the sides.
John was unsurprised by her appearance, he had seen a lot of Florans through his time in the Academy, they almost have the same body type, the only very noticeable difference is the coloration of the eyes, 'hair' and the big flower on top. But what did surprise him was that the female Floran was wearing practically nothing, it was just what humans would call a bikini made of plants. He also had to admit, even he as a human could only say that she was quite the beauty even within all the Florans and other females he had previously see.
He did read that Florans that weren't from the Terrene Protectorate or any other organization usually have a very tribal culture and clothing style.
After a moment of cultural shock, John swiftly recovered and started to hear what Lenny and the female Floran were talking about.
"Hey, bae..." Lenny leaned over the balcony and flirtatiously said, "Wanna go have a drink with little ol' me." Lenny winked and smiled.
"Sorry." The female was sweetly smiled, "I only date strong males. But I do enjoy eating weak male's flesh..." She scanned up and down at Lenny's body, "I don't think I can eat a Novakid... Maybe I should try..."
"Nope, no way. We aren't delicious at all, 100% disgusting." Lenny swiftly changed the attitude and retreated a few steps from the balcony.
John sighed and shook his head, "Sorry about my friend. He was very... Impolite." John apologized on Lenny's behalf.
"No worriesss-" The female Floran started to speak, but stopped midway, "Sorry about my hiss. I'm not quite used to speak normally."
"Not all..." John said dismissively with a casual smile.
Lenny looked at John and then at the female Floran, then he suddenly mischievously smiled, "Hey, you two, could you guys stop flirting-"
*Pah*
A flying object hit Lenny right in his face.
John facepalmed. It was the female Floran that threw something toward Lenny. He helplessly sighed and apologized once again, "Sorry... Again. He's quite drunk-"
"I'm not drunk!" Lenny spoke while he tried to get up from the ground.
"He's problematic... As you see." John was slightly annoyed at Lenny's behavior.
"Don't worry about that. I'm quite used to it, when you work in a place like this one, you meet all types of people, and learn to properly deal with them."
"How long do you worked here?" John unconsciously continued the conversation.
"For about 2 months, not that long. In fact, this is my last day here. After tonight, I'll return to my home."
"Oh my God!" Lenny rolled his eyes, "Just ask for her name and numb-"
*Pah*
This time it was John who sent Lenny to the ground with a swift kick on the back of Lenny's knee.
The Floran slightly chuckled, "How about we finish our procedures of your participation. There are people getting impatient behind you, at the line."
"Okay..." John sighed, and it sounded somewhat... Sad?
