Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife

Chapter 183 Now What?





As for Esong, after hugging his grandparents, he turned around to walk away but when his feet touched the metallic entrance to the space ship, he turned around and run back. He surprised everyone by lifting Scarlet up, with Justin in her hands and he kissed her. It was not a simple over the lips kiss but a deep one, with his tongue delving into her mouth one last time. 

Adler was quick enough to cover Justin's eyes while the crowds cheered. 

"Make sure that you miss me Scar," Esong whispered in her ears, "Everyday." She replied. She meant it, she would be missing him everyday and she would check in on him as often as possible as a grim reaper. Hopefully she would not have to reap his soul this winter. 

As he finally looked back one last time and waved at the BSTV news drone in the air, Scarlet rubbed her chest slowly, fighting back her own urge to cry again. It was official, yup, she had fallen. And she could understand why human-grim reaper relationships were not necessarily good for grim reapers. She did not think she would have the strength or will to reap his soul if he died this soon. 

In fact, just as Severus had said, the temptation to keep him around and find a way to resurrect him or make him as immortal as she was would probably be great.

"This is why I warned you," Severus who had sensed her thoughts said, "Grim reapers should not invest too much in the emotions of humans. If you don't have the heart to do it when the time comes, I will do it for you." Oh she knew all too well that Severus would not allow her to risk both of their immortality by incurring the wrath of the deity of the after life. There were worse punishments in the underworld worse than disappearing into the unknown.

The space ship doors closed and a new loud howl was heard, it encompassed the entire blue star, causing vibrations in the ground. Since Scarlet had forbidden that howl of the sand worm, she had provided a new alternative howl which bellowed to announce the arrival or departure of mecha mecha warriors. She gave them Severus's howl, which was louder, fiercer and safer. It was her way of warning the soul eaters that time was up while satisfying the requirement of a must have bellow for the mecha warriors.

While Severus's howl did not make the earth shake so much as the sand worm howl, it had the people holding their chests in a moment of unexpected fear which came out of a place they did not understand. But Scarlet did, it was the sound of death coming to drag you to your eventual inescapable fate. Those who had committed evil, felt the fear more than others. But the feeling was only there for a fleeting second and the space ship rose up in the sky, the shields were opened and they disappeared in an instant, as if a light bulb had simply been switched off.

"Dear viewers, you have just witnessed what might possibly be the most romantic kiss in the history of the Sun star. General Esong, going off to the winter war has left us all with something to talk about. Reporting from the blue star space port for BSTV, reporter Jelly."

It was uncanny how captain Zorl was never far from reporter Jelly when she said what he considered to be the most ridiculous things. The RGB was here to maintain order and control traffic. Shoot to kill drones were monitoring above in the sky, rotating with their round bodies and that one big scary red eye. 

 The RGB officers and the fire department were ensuring that those who drove here maintained order on the roads, breaking up the worst problem on the roads so far, traffic jam.

When Jelly passed by captain Zorl, she put on a perfunctory smile and greeted him stiffly. "Captain, good morning." she nodded briefly. 

"You have never been kissed, have you?" Was captain Zorl's unexpected response which pissed Jelly off. 

"What?" she scoffed in surprise. 

"The greatest kiss in the history of the Sun star!!! what a load of crap." he laughed at her. He looked at her, ensuring that she could see the mockery in his eyes. 

"Just let it be." Jelly's camera man whispered to her. "Do the two of you have to fight each time you see each other?" 

But Jelly was too angry to listen to the wise words of her colleague, she folded her arms across her chest and stared at captain Zorl challengingly. "You look the fussy uptight kind of guy who measures the breath of his companion before initiating a kiss. I bet you have never kissed a woman before in your life. You," she pointed at him, "are a serial monogamist, you never smile, you are cold, arrogant, and..." 

"Then date me and find out if I am cold or warm." Captain Zorl "Maybe I will be the greatest kiss of your history." He smirked and winked, but that little glint of mockery in his eyes did not go away. 

"I jelly.." she was about to make more declarations about how she would never date a bastard like him when he swiftly released his gun and pointed it at her. "Are you crazy!!" she squealed. 

 Would he kill or arrest her simply because she did not want to date him!!!! What kind of maniac was this?

"Captain Zorl, let's talk about it, I will date you, okay.." she employed the strategy of relating, cajoling and coming to terms with the hostile as they had been trained to deal with such situations in their job.

"Move," Captain Zorl snarled at her, "Driver of vehicle XBS 080, retract the wings of your car right now and get out of the vehicle." he said loudly through his helmet.

Jelly turned around and finally realized that the gun was not pointing at her but the driver who was trying to use his flying car illegally. "Turn on the drone." she told her camera man, she reported the situation to headquarters and she started reporting. 

Two shoot to kill drones and another officer joined captain Zorl. "Civilian in vehicle XBS O80, this is your first warning, step out of the car, get on your belly and lower your mental shields." a shoot to kill drone announced. They had a way of saying 'civilian' in a cold mechanical way which frightened people. 

The driver got out of the car, he was arrested and transported away by the shoot to kill drone while his car was impounded and flown away by an RGB officer.

Other civilians who were patiently waiting in line for traffic jam to break shook their heads. 

"Another idiot who is going to pay a heavy fine for attempting to fly a car. Does he think he is in a bigger hurry than the rest of us?" a man asked his wife. 

His wife was re-watching the video of the moment Esong lifted Scarlet and kissed her, "Yes," she replied absentmindedly. 

Away from this, Scarlet was still looking at the sky, and sighing. 

"He is gone, sister." Carolyn put her hands around Scarlet's shoulders . "Now what?"
