Chapter 201 Anytime, Anywhere, Any Moment

In a dilapidated subway filled with a flood, the ark came to a stop and the main door opened slowly. Mack slowly came out of the ark and looked at the dark subway with a frown on his face.

He jumped into the flood and the water reached his ankle. He squinted his brow and looked deep into the darkness for a couple of minutes before he raised his hand.

Creak!

A group of teams matched out of the train and jumped into the flood. They were all in the First Circle but had yet to form their core power. Every one of them was equipped with a rank 3 weapon as they arranged neatly at his back.

"You know the mission. I won't condone any mistake." He said in a low voice as he signal with his hand.

The group walked through the flood, making low noise as much as possible. The group of twenty men came out of the flood and walked with light steps toward the surface.

"Why didn't you allow me to join the scouting team?" Leah asks in a low voice.

Since she regained her power, she had been useless on the ark. Although it took her a couple of days to accept the fact that she had been bonded with the most powerful person on the ark. She didn't know how to react to their sudden relationship.

Is he her boyfriend or what?

Since she could feel the powerful connection between them. Though it was not to Justin alone the connection with him was the strongest, pulling them together.

Justin raised his head and looked at the shy Leah with a calm expression on his face. "Did you have any conversation with the others?"

Hmm!

'What did that have to do with this…' She squinted her brow and raised her a bit.

"No… Apart from the first one."

"Hmm. I see…"

Kira and Susan were busy in their department when they heard Justin's voice in their head. 'Come to the conference room.' The duo stood up immediately and headed toward the conference room, wondering what happened.

"Why didn't you talk with them?"

"I found no reason to talk to them…"

"How is the life of your people in the unmarked section?"

Leah rolled her eyes and looked at him, wondering why all these questions. 'Why did I feel like the conversation had turned into an interrogation…' She paused for a couple of seconds, pondering whether to continue the interrogation or not.

She let out a deep sigh and responded. "They are good. Compared to being a prisoner. The ark is like a paradise."

"Do you feel indebted to the ark?"

"Why are you asking all these questions?" Her voice raised an octave as she stared directly into his eyes. And that was a mistake she shouldn't have made. An heavenly pressure descended on his body and her soul trembled, forcing her to fall on her chair.

Everything lasts for a couple of seconds but it feels like an eternity for her. 'If I hadn't fallen from the chair…. What would have happened to my soul….' Thinking of this, she shivered with sweat dripping from her forehead.

'What kind of power is this….'

'Is he even human?' Various questions spiral through her mind but she couldn't come up with the right answer.

Justin watched her without any expression on his face. He could feel her emotion but that didn't bother him. In his present power realm, only a couple of things could make his emotion fluctuate. And Leah hadn't reached the stage where she could affect his emotion. If not for the soul connection between them. He wouldn't have given her an audience in the first place.

Creak!

The doors slide open and two ladies entered. Their eyes fixed on Leah before they went to Justin for a split second before they averted their gaze.

'What do you think is going on?' Susan asked Kira through their soul link.

'How would I know?'

They both took their respective seats at both his right and left. Seeing them, Leah twisted her lips and looked down at her hand as she twisted them together. Her heart was thumping, wanting to jump out of her chest from nervousness.

'Why did they come… Ah!'

'Did he call them?'

'Ah! This is so frustrating.' In the presence of Kira and Susan. She didn't have the confidence to talk; being the last in the group, the lowest in terms of look and power gave her an inferiority complex.

For a couple of seconds, the room was silent like a graveyard as everyone was lost in their thoughts. The three ladies looked at each other from the corner of their eyes while Justin had a light smile on his lip.

'Why did it feel like this was a family meeting?' A sudden thought appeared in his mind and this thought made his heart skip. Unknown to him, it was not only his heart that skipped at that moment, but all the ladies had their hearts skipped.

"What do you think of Leah?" Justin finally breaks the suffocating silence.

Hearing the question, Susan and Kira looked at each other before they looked at Leah. 'What the hell is going on?' They thought. Seeing their gaze, Leah bit the edge of her lips as she wanted to find a hole to hide. 'Don't look at me like that!? I don't understand… him' She cried in her mind.

"She's a headstrong woman and likes to keep to herself. And all this started when she was betrayed and held captive by the hordes." Kira answered, looking at her. Since there was no secret between the four, thus they could understand each other better than other people on the ark.

"Do you trust her?"

"I should since we're linked by soul but she didn't give me the feeling that I could trust her," Susan responded.

Hearing this, Leah's heart skipped a beat, and raised her head, looking at Susan without blinking. "Do you trust him with your life?"

Susan turned and looked at her with a light smile on her gorgeous beautiful lips. "Yes. Anytime, anywhere, any moment."
