Aiko gritted her teeth, but luckily Laylah and Hikaru's laughter drowned out the sound of it.

She rested her hands on her thighs and clutched the dress as if she wanted to rip it off.

Of course, no one noticed Aiko. Velys, who was busy preparing breakfast for Laylah and everyone, only glanced at Aiko for a moment and then looked at Hikaru.

While Hikaru was preparing to eat breakfast.

On the table was a plate of omelets accompanied by freshly baked bread. Each person also had an extra bottle of mineral water.

It could be said that their breakfast was extremely luxurious during the apocalypse. Although the apocalypse had just begun, people were already suffering from severe food shortages.

In fact, in modern times, the most redundant and least concerning thing is food.

Food prices were cheap, even if we walked on the street, we could see a lot of restaurants and a lot of places selling food.

Therefore, everyone had no idea that they would have to hoard food.

When the apocalypse came, zombies were everywhere, there was not much food in the house, and people began to starve.

This was easy to understand.

There were very few families that stored a lot of food in the house. However, no matter how much food they hoarded, it was not enough to last them for a month.

In the end, people still have to leave their homes, leave shelters to find food.

Or… they could expect the army to come to their rescue.

As everyone started to eat, Aiko felt that the food was extremely delicious and she was surprised at Velys' cooking ability.

"It's delicious…" Laylah said, "I didn't expect it to be this delicious."

"Since the apocalypse began , ordinary needs have become so luxurious that they are very hard to obtain ."

Laylah said while smiling as she looked at Velys and Hikaru: "Thank you for the meal."

Velys also smiled and nodded: "Um… it's thanks to Hikaru, otherwise I would probably be a meal in a Zombie's mouth by now or trying to survive in this horrible world."

Aiko was surprised to hear that, could it be… Hikaru told Velys that the end of the world would come?

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm She suddenly remembered when Rakan was reinforcing the car, no matter how much she questioned him about it, he didn't answer.

Rakan at that time just said that 'someday she would understand'. He never so much as mentioned that the end of the world would come so that Aiko could prepare.

Aiko enviously looked at Hikaru and Velys, why could Hikaru trust Velys and tell her his secret but Rakan won't tell her? She thought.

'Could it be… even if I sacrificed and did so many things for him, he wouldn't trust me?'

'Why is that, Rakan? Why are you treating me like this?'

Hikaru glanced at Aiko, seemingly guessing what she was thinking, and said, "Because I trust Velys, and I know that she won't betray me. Aiko, Rakan knew that the end of the world would happen, but did he say anything to you?"

When Aiko heard Hikaru's question, her body trembled. She clenched her knife and fork in her hands, as she grit her teeth.

After a while, she took a deep breath and slowly said, "No, he didn't tell me anything. It seems… he doesn't trust me."

"After all I've done... no matter how much I sacrificed for him, how much I helped him, he wouldn't trust me."

Hikaru shrugged his shoulders and said, "Because he has a serious illness, that's why he doesn't trust anyone but himself."

"You also know the reason he allowed you to hear his plans."

"That says he doesn't trust you either. One day, if you betray him, he will also kill you without hesitation."

"In Rakan's heart there is only himself and his interests. You… are just an item for him to use."

"Hikaru…" Velys looked a bit worried, she hastily interrupted Hikaru saying: "She… is a little… out of control."

Hikaru just shook his head when he heard that, "I'm just telling her the truth. After all, since she's our hostage now, she should know the truth."

Aiko trembled, she mustered up the courage to say, "I know it, it's just… I just don't want to accept it."

"It's time for you to accept it." Hikaru said.

Aiko nodded slightly, she knew that it was time to let go of what she had hoped for and a happiness so far away in the past.

Hikaru continued to eat as if nothing happened, Laylah also just sighed and started eating.

Velys stared at Aiko while eating, as she felt a bit worried for her.

After a while, Aiko sighed and asked, "I… don't understand. Are you going to keep me as bait for Rakan?"

Hearing that, Hikaru put down his knife and fork and wiped his mouth with a towel. He looked Aiko straight in the eye and said, "Probably. I intend to use you to trap Rakan. However, he doesn't seem to care about you for now."

"But… he was seriously injured, so it's unlikely he can survive."

"Hahaha..." Hikaru said with a smile, "Aiko, you don't understand Rakan. He's very careful, I think…for now, he's hiding somewhere to recuperate."

"Recuperate? No way, you  cut off both of his arms and a leg, how can he still recover?" Aiko glared at Hikaru, she couldn't believe what he had just said.

Hikaru shook his head: "Like I said, you know too little about him. Thanks to that cube, he can do anything. As long as he has enough supplies and energy crystals, he can reconnect the severed parts with ease."

Aiko took a deep breath, even though what Hikaru said was hard to believe, she still chose to trust him.

Anyway… she currently didn't have anyone she could rely on. Hikaru was the only one who let her feel warm and safe.

"I… I don't know such things at all." Aiko explained.

"Um… I know." Hikaru also nodded.

"Do you believe me?"

"Of course, given Rakan's nature, he certainly won't tell you anything."

"So… how do you know?" Laylah glanced at Hikaru and asked, her eyes filled with teasing and triumph.

Hikaru wasn't afraid of her either, he simply shrugged and said, "Because I have my own secret. What? Do you want to leave this place or do you want to stay here?"

Laylah pouted, looking the other way as she muttered: "Huh! Stingy bastards."

Hikaru ignored Laylah, he looked at Aiko and said: "Keeping you as bait for Rakan is only a small reason, the bigger reason is that I want to wait for someone."

"Who do you want to wait for?" Aiko asked, a bit confused.

Hikaru also did not hide it, he said: "I am waiting for your relatives to come and redeem you."

"What?! My relatives? Didn't you say that my clan is dead, in this world, I have no relatives left?"

Hikaru smiled and said, "Yes, in this world you don't have any other relatives, but in other worlds there are."

"Another world? What do you mean? I don't understand!" Aiko felt extremely confused.

Laylah was also very interested when she heard that, she put down the knife and fork in her hand, and listened intently to what Hikaru was about to say.

Hikaru smiled, he then propped his hands on the table, then looked at Aiko and said: "Your mother has a younger sister, she has been missing for a long time, your family has also spent a lot of time trying to find her but everything has been pointless."

"Everybody thought that the girl was dead, however, she was still alive. It's just… she's not in this world right now, but in another world."

Aiko was puzzled: "That person is not dead, but not in this world… what does that mean."

Laylah sighed and said, "That means your mother's sister is in another world, perhaps a parallel world to ours or a completely different world."

Aiko listened to Laylah's explanation and didn't quite understand what they were saying.

Anyway, Aiko didn't have time to read s, she was only interested in studying and earning money to help support her family.

Also she didn't know about games, s, moreover she didn't even know about makeup because she didn't have enough money to buy makeup.

"Okay..." Hikaru said, "You'll know then. However, I won't hide it from you, it's your only living relative."

"She will appear to take you away, but I do not know when she will appear."

Hikaru did not worry that Laylah would find out something through his words.

He was tired of hiding, so he decided to ignore Laylah.

He glanced at Laylah, and he was surprised. Contrary to what he thought, Laylah didn't ask anything more, as she continued to enjoy breakfast.

'Bizarre! I thought that she would ask many things, to try to get as much information from me as possible.'

'Could it be… she already knows the whole thing so there's no need to ask?'

'No, it's impossible for her to know the existence of another world.'

Laylah saw Hikaru's eyes that were filled with confusion, and secretly laughed.

'Huh! I won't ask you questions anymore. You don't like women who are too smart, do you? Good! I'll be a silly girl.'

'I'm tired anyway, I don't want to use my brain too much.'

Both of them had their own thoughts, and Velys only looked at Hikaru, then looked at Laylah and then bowed her head to eat breakfast, feeling a little confused in his heart.

After eating, Velys was about to clean up when Aiko stood up: "Let me do it. I can't help you, so let me do what I can."

Hearing that, Velys looked at Hikaru, and saw him nod, she then  looked at Aiko with a smile and said: "Um… we have a pipeline with underground water, you can pump water from there to wash dishes."

Hearing that, Aiko nodded, Velys felt uneasy so she followed Aiko  to guide her.

At this moment, only Laylah and Hikaru remained in the room.

He looked at Laylah, frowned and said, "How long are you going to stay here?"

"You want me to get out of here?"
