The God Virus

"Well, he would’ve probably done that if..." Virus mumbled in a voice Astes didn’t hear.

"Anyway, do you plan on going anywhere today? If so... please let me know, I’ll accompany you." Astes uttered.

"I don’t have any plans... thanks anyway though." With a grateful smile, Virus thanked her.

"Here, though its quality is not as good as the ones I prepare on our own Earth, at least it is prepared with the best method of making this kind of tea, so I believe it will be good enough." Placing a cup of hot tea on the desk in front him at their own room, the golden beauty offered.

Currently, the sky had already turned dark as the two were sitting in their own room gazing at the starry night sky as the golden beauty had also prepared some tea for Virus.

So, putting the cup of tea on the desk, she also sat on one of the chairs in the room while starting to chitchat with her master.

After a while, Virus grabbed the cup of tea as he slowly took a sip from it.

Then, closing his eyes, he seemed to have been lost in the feeling and the taste his cup of tea was providing him with.

"How is the tea master?" Seeing his master finally open his eyes with a nod, the golden beauty inquired.

"Good! It’s far better than the one I had inside that fool’s office even though this tea’s leafs’ quality is worse than that fool’s." While savoring the fragrance of the tea, Virus stated with satisfaction.

Seeing his satisfaction, the golden beauty voiced, filled with happiness, "I see, as long as master likes it, I’m happy, hehe..."

After that, the room stayed quiet for some time, until finally, the silence was broken by the golden beauty’s nostalgic tone, "Master... do you think... I mean, can you guess how is the situation on our own Earth right now?"

As Virus’ attention was drawn by the golden beauty’s abrupt question, he looked at her as he calmly stated while taking another sip from his good tea, "Hmm, on Earth... there should be quite a chaos right now as everyone should’ve figured out they are sick... lots of people must be going crazy..."

Ella became surprised hearing his words as she inquired, "Ah, what do you mean master?"

"Well, the whole population on Earth should be infected by the disease I released to the world by now so..." Virus added as he took another sip in a very relaxed manner.

The golden beauty eyes jumped open as she became speechless hearing Virus’ words.

Actually, what made her speechless and dumbfounded to this level was watching Virus’ paradoxical behavior. It made her really shocked watching how relaxed he seemed while his mouth had just confessed to having made the whole planet sick with some kind of disease.

A while later, finally calming down, she curiously muttered, "I wonder how the CEO ugly and the other uglies are doing right now...?"

"Hmm, they should be fine..." As he was reminded one the four uglies, it made Virus unconsciously think of Ella, ’I wonder how she’s doing right now...’

And, thinking about her made him have different mixed feelings as he began to deeply ponder about something.

"Okay, it’s late, I should rest now... there’s a long day ahead of us tomorrow." Finally, coming out of his deep thoughts, he proclaimed while yawning.

"Alright, Night night master, sleep comfortably without any worries, I’ll keep watch throughout the whole night." The golden beauty uttered with a tender smile plastered on her face.

.

An hour passed and it was now the middle of the night.

At this moment, the golden beauty too was lying beside her master as she was watching her master’s sleeping face quietly.

After a while, she too decided to close her eyes in order to pretend to be sleep beside her master’s sleeping body.

.

Hours passed like that as she kept her eyes closed when suddenly, a small creaking sound was heard from the window.

Anyone else hearing this creaking sound would’ve assumed it was the sound of the wind blowing against the window as it made some noise. However, that didn’t apply to the golden beauty who was completely conscious.

The moment she heard that noise, she began to analyze the voice while keeping her eyes closed.

And soon, she arrived at the conclusion that the window was opened in a professional manner.

And this made her very alarmed as she tried to detect the person who had entered the room while keeping her eyes closed.

She kept her eyes closed because she knew her enemy was assuming she was sleep and this assumption would be helpful in ambushing that enemy.

A while passed but she still couldn’t detect the enemy and this made her quite anxious as she was about to open her eyes and alarm her master with the fastest speed she could.

However, before she could do that, she was finally able to detect her enemy as she spotted an old lady suddenly appear and stand beside her still sleeping master silently.

On the right hand of that old lady seemed to be a dagger as she stared at Virus with a horrifying smirk on her face as if she was staring at the most delicious prey in the world.

Finally, that old lady raised her dagger as she slashed it toward Virus’ sleep body.

Then, in an instant, the sword was almost upon Virus’ sleeping body, when abruptly, a long sword surrounded with arcs of electricity appeared on the path of the blade, successfully blocking it.

Chirrrp~ Clink~

The moment the noise of two metals colliding against each other resounded inside the room, Virus’ eyes jumped wide open as he spotted a blade and a long sword colliding against each other just above his face.

"Oh... What an interesting sword... is the electricity because of your technique or the sword itself... hmmm..."

"Her her, anyway, I didn’t expect his servant to be this powerful... I’m very impressed about how alert you are young lady..." The old lady grinned evilly as her toothless mouth was displayed in front of the golden beauty’s eyes.

"How dare you to try to hurt master! You... must... die!" The golden beauty though seemed to be very enraged as she stared at the person in front of her with an extremely cold expression as she uttered with an icy tone.

"Her her her, now-now, even though I admit you’re strong as you were able to block my first attack... but that’s just because I’ve been attacking rather half-heartedly... so don’t get over your head just because I praised you a little, her her her..." With a burst of creepy laughter, the old lady proclaimed.

However, without paying any attention to her words, the golden beauty hacked toward the old lady with the fastest speed she could with her sword which was currently covered with electricity.

Chirrrrrp~ Clink~

"Her her her, unfortunately for you, you’re not my opponent at the moment, young lady." mumbling this, the old lady raised her dagger as she easily deflected the long sword.

After that, without stopping at all, the golden beauty attacked again as she tried slashing to an opening on the left side of the old lady.

Clink~

However, once again, her attack ended in a failure as the old lady easily defended again.

Chirrrp~ Clink~ Bam~

Clink~ CLINK~ Chirrrrp~

Afterward, a chain of noises as a result of the two weapons colliding against each other resounded inside the room, as a chain of sparks and electricity was produced here and there, either because of the two weapons connecting to each other or because of the golden beauty’s long sword emitting electricity from itself.
