The Fat God System

Chapter 94: Encounter

The sudden voice alerted Hugh of the danger. He could feel the cold air of the person's breath in his neck, giving him a creeping feeling. He did not feel any movement from anywhere, so he was perplexed as to how the person was able to approach him.

Hugh quickly turned around to see who spoke to him. He used his armor to have explosive speed and catch the person by surprise.

As soon as he turned around, he saw a black blur and nothingness. There was no one behind him, but he could feel the person's presence somewhere around his vicinity.

"Don't turn around. You'll never see me."

The robotic voice once again appeared behind him. Even with his eagle eyes and his armor working together, Hugh could not catch a glimpse at the person.

He was like a crazed person, looking everywhere for something that was not there. Hugh had furrowed eyebrows as he recognized the mysterious voice.

He had heard this voice before, and Hugh was sure that they had met before. When Hugh had to kill Joub, there was one person there who witnessed the whole thing.

It was a person who had a white mask covering their whole face, and with the same robotic voice.

"Are you the person I met before?"

The voice did not respond. Hugh stopped moving around and let the person speak. He knew that he would not be able to sneak a peek at the person no matter how many times he tried.

"I have a message for you."

The voice only repeated its words. Hugh had a bad feeling about the message that was directed at him. Being called out here alone with no one to witness them was a bad sign.

"Who is it from?"

Hugh kept his eyes on the ground as he concentrated on the voice. He did not know if this was a trap or not, so he had to know more information.

"You will know who."

Hugh frowned. He did not know of any person that would go to such lengths just to give him a message. There was one person that came to his mind, but he did not want it to be true.

"Then tell me face to face."

Hugh bargained with the voice. He did not like being kept in the dark about these kinds of stuff. He needed to know who he was dealing with so that he could prepare in case a fight broke out.

"..."

The voice did not respond. They clearly did not want to show their face to Hugh.

"Fine. Then, be direct and just tell me now."

Hugh had to relent and just decided to hear the message that was directed at him. The suspense was killing him, and it looked like the voice would not give in.

Hugh could feel the cold air breathing down his neck. This told him that the voice opened its mouth as if they were about to speak.

"You-"

As the voice spoke their first word, it was suddenly interrupted by a cacophony of high-pitched voices.

"Hahahahaha no you are!!!"

"Well, we are all kind of bad hahahaha."

"Speak for yourself, Bethany!"

Hugh heard the loud voices of girls down the hallway. He looked up and saw that five girls were coming towards him while chatting with each other.

Hugh recognized them to be the girls in his class. There was one girl in the middle that stood out. Her wavy blond hair reflected the orange light of the outside like glass. It was Serena.

She walked with grace and beauty, exuding a charming smile as she walked alongside her friends. The girls at her side were mediocre at best, but it only emphasized her beauty even more.

"Okay then, we'll meet the club later. I just have to take care of some things back at my house."

Serena walked ahead of the group and waved as she said her goodbyes. The girls reciprocated and waved goodbyes at her, showing a sad expression.

As the other girls left back to where they came from, Serena was all alone in the hallways. Her smile turned quickly turned into a neutral expression like a flick of a switch.

She looked up and saw Hugh standing alone in the hallway, looking at her with a strange expression. She frowned at the look.

At first, she did not recognize him, but that fat exterior was not hard to remember.

"What are you looking at?"

She stopped in her tracks and crossed her arms. She felt that something weird was going on with the fat guy.

Hugh frowned as he heard Serena's tone. It was like he had offended her because he was in her territory. This was a public place, and Hugh could do whatever he wanted.

"Not any of your concern."

She frowned at Hugh's attitude. She felt that Hugh was too arrogant for his own good. She still thinks of Hugh as a weak person, so Hugh should not have this much confidence.

"It is my concern if I wanted it to be."

Serena stood her ground and raised her chin in the air. She had a look of superiority as she tried to intimidate him.

They locked eyes for a few seconds, but Hugh did not break away his gaze. She felt that it weird that Hugh was this arrogant, and she wanted to teach him his place, but she had better things to do.

"Hmph."

Serena walked towards Hugh and flipped her hair as she passed by him. Hugh could smell a distinct sweet aroma from her shampoo, which did not seem to fit with her bitterness.

She walked away and ignored Hugh as she stepped onto the shifting room and disappeared.

Hugh was alone once again and silence reigned on the hallways. He looked around, but he did not see any signs of the voice coming back.

He looked down and saw that a letter was beside his feet. Hugh was sure that Serena did not drop this, which meant that the letter was from the mysterious voice.

He bent down and read its contents.

'Stop Aric at all costs or else your secret will be known to all.
