Chapter 106: Word Of Advice
Miles stood straight and nodded. "That can be taken care of." He said, then turned his gaze to the survivors and walked towards them.
"I was scared something happened to you three." The woman walked towards the three.
"All thanks to these great fighters." Anna gestured to the players behind her.
The woman stopped, and moved her gaze on each one of them and settled it on Supreme and Blood-Arrow. She walked up to them with a smile.
"We are grateful to both of you for saving us today, as the leader of this Base; I asked, state whatever you want."
The two looked at each other, then at her. "It\'s ok..."
"You can call me, Alice."
"It\'s OK, Alice. We just want some clean water and food." Supreme said with a friendly smile.
"That can be arranged, But..." She turned to Reaper and Drakon. "What about them?"
Supreme turned to the two and nodded. "Retreat both of you."
Drakon and Reaper took two bodies with them, then turned into particles. Disappearing from sight.
"Please come inside."
"I\'m sorry, but we want to know where Gas-Death is located."
All the survivors froze hearing Blood-Arrow. They moved their gaze around the players, and they all nodded.
Alice sighed. "Do you know anything about Gas-Death?" She asked.
The players including Supreme shook their heads.
Alice smiled and said:
"You all are Naive, come inside, and I\'ll tell you why." She turned around and walked towards the Base, Supreme followed behind her then Blood-Arrow, and lastly; all the players.

Half and Hour Later.
Supreme walked out of the bathroom with a towel on his waist, Into the small room given to him by Alice.
"Thank goodness they gave me black." He looked at the folded clothes on the bed. "Even in Apocalypse, they can still live like nothing happened." He looked at the desk in the room, seeing a plate filled with white Rice, tomato stew and roasted chicken, and a plate of slice fruits beside it.
"Let me guess, this is the food they serve to the leaders here." He turned to the clothes, and picked up the Black T-shirt.
______
Blood-Arrow sat on the bed in a black shirt and pants. She stared at the food in front of her lost in thought.
\'How can he use his Mana?\'
\'What is Supreme really capable of?\'
\'Did I make the right choice teaming with him?\'
\'Yes! If I haven\'t teamed up with him, how would I have gained 3 years of life times?\'
She sighed, and stood up, then walked towards the door leaving the untouched food behind. "I don\'t know what he did for me to gain double the rewards..." She held the door knob, and with a turn she pushed the door open.
\'I\'ll have to find a way to repay him back for this, we are teammates, but he also helped me gain double the rewards of kills.\'
"Miss Blood-Arrow."
She turned to the right, seeing Anna staring at her with a bright smile.
"Yes?"
"The Boss asked me to show you the way to the command room."
"Oh."
"This way Miss Blood-Arrow." Anna walked ahead, Blood-Arrow slowly followed her.
The dual walked through different hallway in silence, Anna looked at Blood-Arrow over her shoulder and asked.
"You don\'t talk much, right?"
Blood-Arrow looked at her for a moment and nodded.
"It seems powerful people don\'t talk too much, just like my Love. You remembered him, right?"
"No." She shook her head.
"That handsome guy who thanked both of you, he goes by the name, Miles. And I\'m Anna."
"How do you know my name?" Blood-Arrow asked.
"Your people are talking about you, I want to ask." Anna turned around to face her. "Are you two in a Relationship?"
Blood-Arrow frowned slightly. "Which two?" She asked in mild confusion.
"You and that handsomely powerful guy, you are beautiful and he\'s handsome. Both of you fit together."
"We aren\'t in any relationship, we are just teammates."
"Oh..." Anna was surprised. "Sorry for misunderstanding, but... Aren\'t in any relationship? Aren\'t you two friends?"
"You ask a lot of questions."
"Just curious how a lady as yourself is so powerful, and seems lonely." She turned around and continued walking.
Blood-Arrow frowned deeply, her face turning cold.
"Sorry if I cross any boundaries there." She turned around again to face Blood-Arrow. "Being Lonely isn\'t good for anyone, both mentally and physically. I lost my Mom and Dad in this Apocalypse, and I almost broke down when I thought I lost Miles too..."
"... All I am saying is, You should open your heart and let someone in. Or do you like living this way--"
Whoosh!!
Anna froze, she lowered her gaze to the sword on her neck, Then at Blood-Arrow. "Do you want to kill me?" She asked, knowing the silver hair lady in front of her would never kill her because of what she said.
Blood-Arrow looked at her calmly, remembering AI\'s warning.
\'\' she sighed, and slowly lowered her sword. Seeing the smile on Anna\'s face she said:
"You should be happy, you are alive because of some circumstances." Blood-Arrow placed her sword in the sheath hanging on her back.
"As I said, you should open your heart." Anna added, and started walking again.
"I don\'t understand what you are implying, but I have a sister, So I\'m not alone." She said following behind Anna.
"That is lovely, but... That is not the relationship I\'m talking about. You need a relationship like the one I share with Miles." With that said she kept quiet.
Blood-Arrow stared at Anna\'s back for a while, not saying anything. Even though she understood little of what this red hair was saying, she knew; she could never have that live. To love someone and have a family, that isn\'t her goal in life after what she had faced from the opposite Sex...
\'No way! I would never have anything to do with the opposite sex, let alone fall for one.\' She thought with killing intent.
