Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 444 What“s a good pair? A cup of noodles and pandesal!

At the very moment that Bob opened his eyes, what he felt was neither fatigue nor anger. Instead, he only felt confusion, especially when he realized the place that he was in.

"I’m... in a hospital room? Did I get injured from earlier? If that’s the case, then why am I feeling comfortable right now..." Bob muttered to himself as he observed his body.

His purple skin, which was covered with the standard patient clothes, still retained its normal luster which indicated that Bob’s health is still at the acceptable level.

"The last thing that I can remember... was when General Glaivewood made his attack on us. Is he.. the one who made me like this?" Bob continued to ponder as he observed the room that he was in.

There was nothing dangerous that can be seen inside this room, as only medical equipment were scattered here.

With Bob’s fighting ability, he can surely survive any attack that will use the items around him. Of course, Bob does not believe that someone will attack him out of the blue right now, as he knew for a fact that he’s inside the Institute’s medical facility.

His years of work as a spy for the Cosmic Guard already made him familiar with the structure of the whole Institute. This is the reason why Bob was able to regain his calm instantly, even when he found himself in a foreign environment.

"Hmm... since I am being taken care in this room, then that means that nobody was able to detect my status as a spy. That’s... a good sign. Now, I just have to use this to my advantage." Bob thought to himself as he rubbed his itchy elbow. "Since I am already here, then I can just do more investigatio-"

It was at this moment that Bob noticed the extremely weird atmosphere all around him.

The shaking on the walls, which Bob had not noticed due to his sudden awakening, can now be felt by all parts of his body, with each shake perfectly reverberating with his body.

The frightening fluctuations in the air can now be sensed by Bob too, who spent some seconds in a stunned state as he did his best to process everything that he just felt.

Everything that occured right now felt extremely alien to Bob, as never did he expect to experience things like this to happen on him.

"What... What did just happen while I was out?" Bob thought to himself listlessly.

He then began to tremble, as he started to feel fear from what was happening.

"These fluctuations that I am feeling... It’s just like the ones released by Officer Emerald and Officer Ruby when they fought each other! Ugh... does this mean that numerous Sixth Stage Beings are fighting right now? But how could this happen? This place.... Is just a normal world! There’s no way that it can attract many powerhouses here!" Bob exclaimed to himself inwardly as he clenched his fists.

By looking at Bob’s eyes, one can easily see that he was spooked by the things happening around him. His hunched gesture as the shakings continued just proved this point.

But truthfully speaking, Bob has an intense desire to go outside and observe the battles happening right now. But due to his cautious nature as a spy, and the fact that he just woke up from a light sleep, Bob realized that he had no choice but to act more-lowkey.

"I am a spy, so I cannot act in an attention-grabbing manner. So even if the fights outside are interesting, I must not make any move that will out me as a spy. Its better for me to just stay here and let things settle down on their own..." At this point, Bob the Purple Skin Spy began to relax her body as he decided to lay back on his bed.

But before Bob could even enjoy the soft and luxurious feeling of his bed, the sudden sound of an opening door made him bolt up.

"Who?" Bob uttered out as he stared intently at the opened door. There was only uncertainty on his face as he stared at the door, with his whole body crouched in a tense state. "Are you my nurse? My god, please don’t surprise me like that!"

"..."

The way that this door opened was so silent, that Bob was taken by surprise when it opened. This naturally placed Bob on his edge, as he began to imagine what could have happened to him when the door opened.

With his experiences as a spy, Bob was already used on sudden attacks from ’surprise visits, so its not surprising for him to act like this. He had already hardened his heart and mind from any possible things that can happen now.

If his visitor attacks him, then fine! Bob will just fight back! Even if his life is at stake here, Bob will still do everything that he can do just to keep the secrets of the Cosmic Guard safe!

This was his principle as a spy, and it was something that he can just ignore.

But even when Bob already prepared himself on what might happen to him, in the end he was still taken aback by his guest, as what his guest did was something that Bob did not even foresee

"Um... are you the spy that is connected with the Cosmic Guard? If you are the spy, th-then congratulations! Big Bro se-sent a message for you!" A child, who appeared to be around 8 years old, said these words in a stuttering tone as he held the door of Bob’s room wide open.

There was no doubt that this child was the visitor that Bob was pertaining to, as he was the only one present in the room along with Bob.

"What are you talking about? What spy? Are you perhaps mistaking me for someone else?" Bob quickly said as he adopted an ignorant attitude. "Kid, I think your eyes are just not that good. Why don’t you just leave me alone here and let me rest? I just woke up so I have to sleep..."

"But Big bro told me that the spy is a Purple Skin with the face that is similar to an iguana!" The kid shot back as he pointed his fingers at Bob. "You are a Purple Skin, and you look like iguana! So you could be really the spy!"

"Kid, you have too much fantasies in your head. I think you should find a way to reduce them..." Bob said as he gave the kid a small glare. "Now beat it, or I will personally kick you out of the room..."

Bob then stood up from his bed as he started to approach the kid. He made a shooing gesture in his hands as he got nearer to the kid, which made it look like he was serious on kicking the kid out.

But of course, Alex was not planning to really kick out this kid. This kid.. was way more important to be just left alone.

Ever since this kid said that he knew Bob was a spy, Bob realized that someone already knew his identity here. This means that he is now in danger, as someone can use this knowledge to manipulate him.

And this kid, who just barged into his room, could actually be related to the one pulling the strings behind them.

"..."

"..."

********************

As long as Bob manages to capture this kid painlessly and effortlessly, then he can get facts from him without making things difficult for the both of them.

Now, all that Bob needs was one well-placed attack, the kid will be his.

"Sorry kid, I am not actually kicking you out. I am taking you with me as a hostage, so please forgive e for what I am about to do." Bob said to the kid in a light tone as he raised both of his hands. "Just blame your master for sending you alone here. If your master were here with you, then capturing you might be harder..."

In face of this sudden change from Bob, the kid held his ground as he continued talking to Bob.

"Don’t talk like that, Mr. Spy. B-big brother told me that I should not be scared of you.! He said that once I give you his message, you will stop attacking me already!"

"Your big brother has a message for me? Hm, since your big brother knows my status, then his message might be helpful to me. Go on, say the message to me already." Bob said as he stopped moving.

Granted, he was still raring to knock the kid out right now. But ever since the kid said that he has an important message for him, Bob suppressed any of his evil thoughts.

All that he will do now is listen, and he will continue listening until he gets everything that he wants to learn.

"Big Brother told me... that instead of loitering here, you should just use the remains of your energy to send an important message to the Cosmic Guard." The kid replied in an innocent tone as he tilted his head. "This message is extremely important, so please use your skills as a spy to send it to them!"

"The Cosmic Guard? But that’s-"

"Big Brother also told me that if you don’t send this message, this world, along with Jellarmo will be in danger of dying." The kid replied quickly , as if what he had said were the common sense of this world. "Even your job will be at risk if you ignore this message, so please hear me out!"

"You little f**ker.... You want me to send another message to my boss? What do you think of me? A telephone?" Bob snarled in reply as he almost rushed in to attack the kid.

He did not care if his actions had confirmed that he was indeed the spy, as he was more preoccupied on making sense of the kid’s request.

"Maybe you don’t know it, but I am a spy. I am not a glorified messenger, so I can’t just accept what your boss wants me to do." Bob continued to say as he felt slight pity on the clearly frightened kid.

"But if you don’t send this message, the Alpha Squadron that the Cosmic Guard sent will be in danger." The kid replied with teary eyes. "Big brother told me that they will die any moment now, and the only thing that can scan save them is your message!"

"What?"
