God of Systems: Maker of Heroes and Villains

Chapter 108 Jumping to Conclusions. Again! (Extra Chapter)



Almost all the teams except Clark's and Keith's were having the same problems as Timmy and his team. One by one, they all fainted due to dehydration and lack of energy, which prompted the masked instructors to teleport them back to the other island.

Even though it was just the fourth day since the event started, there were only two teams left on this island. One was Keith's and the other was Clark's. Most of them didn't even know the cause of their loose bowels when they were taken back.

The guys from the church of medicine should have been able to neutralise the laxative, but Keith knew the truth. No matter how much knowledge they had, they wouldn't be able to make a cure without raw ingredients. But how did Clark manage to do this? It was thanks to a particular snake's venom sack.

This snake's venom sack could be used for other products like tranquillisers or pain suppressants. There were other methods of making medicine for loose bowels that way cheaper but little did they know that the only way of counteracting Clark's laxative was to make powder using the snake's venom as one of the ingredients.

Another reason for this was the fact that this "cure" was supposed to be discovered in the future and since Clark was from the future, he used this knowledge to the fullest. Like most protagonists, Clark had experience in multiple fields, but even then, he his core talent lied in causing havoc.

Which was exactly what happened in the past few days as people gathered at the pond and fought others due to food shortage.

On the fifth day, Keith looked at the four who had just woken up and yawned tiredly, "Guys, let's attack Clark today. Not now, but after I wake up."

Brandon nodded and cupped some water with his palms and used it to rinse his mouth.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

He spit the water on the ground before looking at Keith, "Are you sure? What if someone else attacks us when we're too involved in the fight?"

"It's fine, we have seven and they only have three. If someone else joins the fight, then we leave everything and run." Keith said as he took the blanket that the four of them used to keep themselves warm and sat down on the 3 layers of blankets as he stretched his legs.

He looked up at Clara and Amelia who silently joined him, with Clara in the middle and Amelia on the other side. Amelia silently watched as she saw her friend hug Keith without any of the hesitation that she had a few days ago, but this left a bitter feeling in her heart for an unknown reason.

'..... I feel weird.' she thought, noticing the weird feeling in her heart as she looped her arms around her knees and closed her eyes.

Clara on the other hand sniffed at Keith's chest like a hungry cat before using his thighs as a pillow. Her legs kicked Amelia who just wanted to sleep and she hurriedly got up before apologising.

"I didn't mean it, I'm sorry!" She said as she put her hand on Amelia's shoulder, "Um.... also, can you like move to the other side? To Keith's left?"

Amelia silently stared at Clara and nodded before she crawled to Keith's left before covering herself with the blanket while leaving her head outside. She watched Clara get comfortable on Keith's lap and exhaled heavily.

"Looks like you guys have gotten really comfortable with each other, huh?" she asked. She didn't know why she was spouting nonsense right now, but she felt bitter and wanted to vent indirectly.

Keith slowly turned his head to look at her, "Well, yeah. I'd say it's thanks to you."

Hearing his words, she felt like a cold stone had been dropped in her stomach. She frowned as her eyes lingered on him, her thoughts drifting.

'.... am I getting jealous? Me? There's no way that's possible... he's handsome and is quite a gentleman to others but he's an asshole when it comes to me. Well, a good kind of asshole but still.. Ugh, damn I hate him.' he thought as her gaze slowly moved to his neck and lingered on his trapezius muscles.

He was still pretty skinny, but he had grown quite a bit of muscle in the past three months and for the first time, Amelia was entranced.

Just as she was staring at him, a high pitched but barely audible yelp reached Amelia's ears. There was some shuffling under the blanket but since her head was outside, she couldn't see what was going on inside unless she actively went down under the blanket, which she did not wish to do. Not right now when Keith was staring straight at her.

The straight face of his made her thoughts falter, her imagination of Clara doing something funny under the blanket, crumbling. Clara clearly wasn't someone who'd participate in such naughty acts when there were people around them, or at least that was what she thought as she could never imagine Clara doing such things.

But her world view shattered when she heard a muffled moan and saw Keith suddenly look away.

Unable to accept the sudden change, her body moved on it's own. She grabbed the blanket and pulled, wanting to see what in the hell was going on under the blanket, only to see Keith's hand on Clara's back.

His thumb pressed down as it slowly rotated in circles.

Keith hurriedly grabbed the blanket and covered her as her back was, in fact bare.

"What the hell is your problem?" he whispered to Amelia as he looked at the other four who were groggily walking around, oblivious to what had happened just now.

"I... I just thought that you were taking advantage of Clara since she doesn't speak out about her problems. Yeah, I was trying to look out for her." she said, partially making up a reason for her actions and partially to convince herself away from the true reason behind her actions.

"Well, she told me that her back hurts so I'm giving her a massage. I already told you before to not jump to conclusions in your head and to ask about things to clarify." Keith replied, exasperated with her actions.
