Chapter 233: Future Mad Scientist?

“You can come, Raya.” The Paru called out after making sure that it was safe for her to do so.

“Uh… Sure.” She whispered, tapping a tree with her hand. “Can you get the lights back on though?”

“Right.” He chucked, and the crystal-covered limbs protruding from his back started letting out a faint light again.

“This is so freaky…” Raya muttered as she walked closer, her gaze stuck to those strange limbs. “So you ate them and they just appeared on your body?”

“Well, I don’t know the details of it.” The Paru responded, not turning towards her.

“That’s normal… Can I touch them?” She asked.

“You might get zapped, but it should be safe.” Cero scratched his cheek. “How is it normal though?”

“Ah!” Indeed, Raya’s hand did get zapped. “It doesn’t hurt at least… Hm? How is it normal? Well, most people don’t know how their bodies work, you know? Their stomachs, lungs, heart, brains, neurons… All of those work without the person necessarily knowing how.”

“True… I guess even a more normal body needs to be studied, so it’s not exactly weird that I don’t know how mine works precisely.”

“Exactly.” Raya nodded as she kneeled by his side. “We can try to figure it out though, together.”

“Together? Isn’t that cute… Partaking in nerdy activities and research.”

“Yeah, well… It should be beneficial to you as well.” Raya muttered as she lay her palms against the ground and tilted her body forward.

In front of the two lay a Granilith with its back against the ground.

“Knocked him out?”

“Yeah.”

“Nice.” Raya chuckled. “I’m more used to studying dead bodies. I don’t often get the opportunity to work on live ones.” She scratched her nose. “Thanks for bringing those to me by the way. I assume their Poison is what you ate and want to test now?”

“It is.”

Raya nodded silently and directed her gaze towards the fallen Granilith.

“You know she isn’t exactly different from them? I mean… Genetically and all.”

“I’m sure I’m not different genetically from Parus.”

“You most probably are.”

A slight frown appeared on Cero’s face.

“What are you trying to say?”

“Nothing really.” Raya shrugged as she raised her hips to get a better look at the Granilith’s body. “I’m interested by it, I guess.”

“By my relationship with Lith?”

“You could say that…”

“She’s different from other Graniliths, because she acted differently than the others. Because she acts differently. Because… Anyways.”

“I see.” Raya nodded, redirecting her gaze towards him. “But you agree that she isn’t different from Graniliths the same way that you’re different from Parus.”

“Well… Maybe.”

Raya pressed her lips together. She could tell that those questions were annoying him slightly.

“All things considered, she doesn’t look much different from us.” Raya whispered as pulled back, lowering her hips onto her folded legs again.

“What’s that supposed to mean?”

Raya scratched her cheek, but didn’t answer.

“Well? Are you going to test that Poison or what? Its chest is rising faster than before. Faster heartbeat. It might wake up soon.”

“Fine.” The Paru sighed. “Get behind me, just in case it gets up or something?”

“You’ll protect me?”

“Sure.”

“Haha! Alright then!”

Raya pushed herself off the ground.

“…”

“Alright, let your poison out, Cero!” Raya said as she pointed at the fallen Granilith.

She was standing right behind the Paru, with her arm wrapped around his neck and her breasts stuck to his back.

Her chin rested on his shoulder.

“Come on! Do it!”

“Fine, fine…”

“Nahahaha! Standing here, I really feel like an evil scientist! Come on! Poison it! For science!”

“Hm…” The Paru’s eyes narrowed. “Don’t turn into a mad scientist so soon.” His gaze turned towards her for a moment. “Wow…” He muttered, seeing her smile and blushing. “You’re really enjoying this.”

“Of course I am! It’s a scientific experiment! Nahaha!”

“Well…” The Paru shrugged, turning back towards the Granilith again. “Mad scientists can be pretty hot too.”

“Huh? They’re usually depicted as old and ugly hags. Male mad scientists are hot though.”

“Hm… Let’s agree to disagree again.”

“We don’t have to do that. I’m not an old and ugly hag, so I guess I am the exception.”

“Yes…” The Paru’s left hand circled around his back to slap her ass. “You sure are.”

“Alright!” Raya pressed her breasts against his back more forcefully. “Do it! How does it work? Do you spit it like those you brought me? Or do you need to bite, making it Venom and not Poison? Or… Which is it? How does it work?”

“I can make it work in different ways.” The Paru nodded as he reached forward with his right hand, his left hand remaining over her butt cheek.

“You’re opening its mouth?” Raya whispered.

“Only whispering now?” The Paru chuckled as he pulled on the Granilith’s jaw.

Its mouth opened. The Paru curled his fingers, all except his index finger.

“Damn…” Raya whispered, seeing drops of liquid fall from his index finger and into the Granilith’s mouth. “I can’t tell the color because of the darkness but… Damn.”

“Wanna step back?” Cero suggested, knowing that there would probably be a reaction from the Granilith.

Raya stared for a moment, and gulped.

“No.”

A dozen seconds passed, and the Granilith’s eyes suddenly opened wide.

“Grrrr… Grrraaa…!!”

It clenched its fists, opening its mouth wide to growl.

“Grrraa…!!”

The Granilith’s gaze moved towards the only source of light. Towards the Paru crouching by its side.

It didn’t take long for the Granilith’s gaze to move towards Raya, whose chin was resting on the Paru’s shoulder.

Convulsions, whimpers. Blood exited the Granilith’s mouth and nose.

“Well, damn…”

“…” The Paru scratched his wrist. “You’re not a Soldier, so I’m not sure how-”

“That was cool as fuck.” Raya whispered, staring at the Granilith, now dead. “I mean… It’s fucked up but… Damn…”

Cero pressed his lips together, his eyes narrowing.

“You have a bright future as a mad scientist.” He whispered, nodding. “Probably.”

“Why, thank you.” Raya whispered as she smiled and held him tighter. “I’ll try my best.”
