Liberators

Chapter 67 - Holiday

Weeks have passed since Axel found the girl named Lucy in the suburbs.

Now, the inauguration day has arrived.

Most of the Liberators have been closed because these walls completely cover most of this area in Los Angeles.

Take care of whatever is in it so well.

Hundreds of semi-automatic machine guns that were on top as well as on the outside of the wall were able to slaughter any monsters that approached. As long as the monster was at C level or below.

Realizing this, Axel had injected his last drug last night.

Making his whole body in a state of limp and also limp.

"Sister?" Chloe asked as she continuously touched the face of Axel who was asleep on the sofa.

"Eh? What was? A monster?" Axel asked half-consciously.

"No.... Are you sure you didn't attend the inauguration ceremony? I hear we can start living outside this fort." Reply Chloe.

Axel with a slightly blurred vision and a slightly fading consciousness could only stare towards his sister's figure in the distance.

The girl was seen drying her wet hair while turning on the monitor screen in this room.

Showing a video broadcast of the opening of this Los Angeles wall.

"And with this, humanity will begin to step back to rebuild the lost civilization. Now, with new technology and power!" Firmly Oracle while cutting a red ribbon at one of the wall gates.

Cheers and screams began to sound in all directions. Showing the enthusiasm of the civilians who took part in the event.

Even though the wall had been completed, it did not mean that humans could get out of the wall immediately. There are still many other jobs to be done.

One of them is to clean up the ruins of the city that is inside this wall. Turn it into a residence or farm.

But atleast....

Now they can say with great confidence. That there is not a single monster inside this wall.

It allows civil workers to work much faster and quieter.

"Hmm? Is that today?" Axel asked who was still in a semi-conscious state.

The side effects of the wound treatment medicine on his body were really strong. Makes Axel can barely do anything for a whole day.

Hearing the bullshit from her sister, Chloe came to her senses. That her brother was still under the influence of the drug.

After putting back the towel, Chloe went towards the kitchen. Take a glass of water and some cake.

"Let's...." Chloe said as she pointed the cake at Axel's mouth.

By reflex, Axel opened his mouth. Eat the cake little by little.

Every time Axel spends a cake, Chloe will drink the water to Axel.

"Sister, wake yourself up. You haven't eaten anything in a day. Stop worrying me." Chloe said while pointing the other cake at Axel.

"Sorry...."

It was just that word that came out of Axel's mouth. But what else do you want?

"Don't apologize. I should've apologized for not being able to help you out there."

Chloe's words immediately restored some of Axel's consciousness.

Since long ago, Chloe did not gain great strength after undergoing evolution. No. gabe.... Maybe Chloe didn't get anything.

Cases like Chloe are also not uncommon. It could even be said that half more of humanity obtained evolution with abilities that could be ignored.

And realizing that, Axel was his only hope for his sister. To survive in a world like this.

"Don't talk like that.... It's my job as your sister.... To protect you...." Reply Axel who immediately went back to sleep.

"Sorry...."

This time, Chloe apologized. He regretted his helplessness. That should make her brother receive a wound of this magnitude.

With all her might, Chloe tried to lift her brother's body. Fixing his sleeping position so that it can be a little more comfortable. And covered his body so as not to get cold.

"Have a good rest, brother." Said Chloe while peeping Axel's forehead.

Next day

"Hmm?"

Axel began to gain most of his consciousness. He also woke up with a view of the ceiling that was so familiar.

"Aah, that's right too. I lost consciousness again? Damn, what's 92% working. Don't I always have side effects?" Grieved Axel who immediately rose from his sleep.

The first thing Axel did was wash his face and gulp down a glass of water.

"Aren't you fully awake?" Chloe asked who was aware of the movement in this house.

"That's how it is." Reply Axel from the next room.

"Wait a minute, I'm cooking you some tomato soup and some toast." Reply Chloe.

"Just calm. By the way, what about the inauguration?" Axel asked who was busy watching the contents behind the refrigerator.

After thinking about it for a moment, Axel grabbed a jar containing strawberries. Eat them one by one while walking towards the kitchen.

"Fair enough. Everyone is excited about this achievement. Maybe we can take this world back?" Chloe asked as she continued stirring up the tomato soup.

"That's possible. The longer, the number of monsters also decreased drastically." Reply Axel.

He was standing next to his sister who was busy cooking. His left hand carried the jar containing strawberries while his right hand was busy emptying the jar.

Seeing what her sister was carrying, Chloe turned to Axel and opened her mouth.

"What?" Axel asked briefly.

"Huh? Whatagain? I asked for." Chloe's a little upset.

"ask what? It's mine."

"Oh, is that it? Then there's no breakfast for you today."

Immediately, Chloe turned off the electric stove and took off her apron. Without even looking at Axel, Chloe immediately left the kitchen.

"Wait, hahaha.... I'm kidding, this." Said Axel who was trying to grab his sister's arm.

This time, Chloe closed her eyes while opening her mouth.

"Nake?" Axel asked after putting one strawberry in it.

"Mmmm.... A little sour but I like it." Reply Chloe.

"Thank God. Ah, right too. Chloe, you know me...."

Before Axel could finish his words, Chloe immediately ran towards Axel and hugged his body tightly.

"Can my sister not go? I heard you're going to Japan for a mission...."

Chloe's body looks so limp. Likewise with his soft voice.

Axel knew that this was a very dangerous mission given how suspicious the movement from East Asia was.

But how else? This is his job as a Liberator. He can't refuse it.

What's more....

"Just calm. This is my last mission. Oracle said I could retire after this. And that way, we can live together in this apartment. Isn't that good enough?" Axel asked as he hugged his sister back.

"But.... I fear. Older brother.... Be careful there. Understood it? A promise? Promise me that you'll be okay." Reply Chloe.

"If there's one thing your brother has mastered, it's the ability to hide and escape. Take it easy, if the situation is dangerous, I'll run away."

"But brother hasn't promised?"

"I promise I'll be okay. Take it easy, hasn't there been a problem all along?"

Chloe began to shift her eyes. He did not dare to look at his brother's face. And immediately, begin to shift the topic of this conversation.

"yes too! Come on, let's eat. I'm so hungry." Said Chloe who immediately broke free from Axel's embrace.

Meanwhile, Axel could only stand in the corner of the room while paying attention to his sister's figure.

'Sorry.... But I can't say anything about the rest of my life to you....'
