Chapter 344: Bill's Plan
Mako's eyes widened in shock at Bill's request. The room fell silent, with Nathan, Erin, and Leon all turning their attention to Bill, their expressions a mix of confusion and concern.
"P... Poison you?" Mako echoed, his voice trembling slightly. "Why in hell would you want something like that?! Have you gone insane? Look at yourself!"
A tiny grin appeared on Bill's body as wanted to chuckle but still hadn't recovered enough to do so.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Bill's gaze was unwavering, though his voice was barely more than a whisper. "It seems our team captain has forgotten a very key detail while he was thinking about this coming special exam."
All eyes turned toward Mako with even more confusion, with Mako being the most confused of them all as he had no idea what Bill was talking about.
"What does he mean, Mako...?" Leon asked while scratching his head.
"I don't know... *Huh!*...," Mako said before he suddenly had a realization.
Mako turned toward Bill with knowing eyes," You don't think..."
"Oh, I definitely think so... It's the perfect opportunity," Bill replied.
Nathan was getting a bit annoyed at this point," Mako, mind telling the rest of us why he wants you to poison him?"
Mako and Bill paused as they stared at each other quietly for a couple of moments before finally, Bill opened his mouth again to let everyone know about his plan.
"I want him to poison me just enough so that I recover slowly and won't be able to recover enough to be able to participate in the special exam," Bill explained.
"HUH!" Everyone except Mako reacted in the same way after Bill explained his plan. "Are you serious?"
Why the hell would you do that to yourself?"
"I think he still hasn't come to his senses,"
The group voiced out their opinions as they couldn't understand why Bill would want to prolong his own recovery and stay in this weak and frail state.
"You guys are forgetting about one thing..." Mako finally spoke up, "If all the students, teachers, and professors were away from the school, the enemy would have a golden opportunity to scour the whole area and place a trap for the Pyronite delivery."
"Bill wants to purposefully fail the exam by not being able to participate due to his injuries so that he will still be here while everyone else leaves and he will be able to monitor everything in our absence so that the enemy can't make their advancements," Mako stated.
As soon as Mako made contact with Bill's extremely frail and thin bandaged arm, his eyes also began to glow a bright neon green as he also activated his poison mutant gene in order to
make sure he didn't screw anything up.
Bill winced in pain as he felt the liquid enter his bloodstream causing Mako and everyone else
in the room to panic.
Even though Mako had only just begun to administer the poison, Bill was already experiencing so much pain that it took everything left inside of him not to scream out loud.
Seeing Bill's condition, the glow in Mako's eyes and hand faded as he quickly stopped before The caused any more pain.
From the outside, Mako looked completely fine but he didn't move a muscle and maintained contact with Bill's arm with his eyes closed.
The pain that Bill was experiencing had quickly faded and even he was a bit confused. He opened his eyes to see Mako still standing beside him, but he remained completely still and emotionless which admittedly looked a little creepy as if he had fallen asleep.
Nathan, Erin, and Leon were also visibly confused with Leon moving forward to try and shake Mako so that he could come to his senses, but Bill intervened, shouting as loudly as he could
from his weak throat.
"No! Let him be! He hasn't given up..." Bill said.
Bill didn't know exactly what was going on but he knew Mako. He had seen him many times just to be staring at absolutely nothing for an uncomfortable amount of time, almost as if he
was meditating or something.
He couldn't really figure out what it was that he was doing while he was in this state, but he knew that he wasn't giving up as the grip around his arm was still firm and strong.
This was why he opted to give Mako time and let him do whatever he was doing before he resumed injecting the painful poison inside his body once again.
The room remained silent as they watched Mako stand absolutely still, the tension thick in
the air. Erin, Nathan, and Leon hovered nearby, ready to assist if needed. Minutes passed, and Mako hadn't moved a muscle; however, despite that he was now sweating quite profusely, which goes to show just how hard he was concentrating.
While the group waited patiently for Mako to come back to reality, Mako was having a panic attack inside his mind as system notifications continued blaring in front of him even while his
eyes were closed.
