Records of the Weakest Emperor

Chapter 75: Unforgivable!

Calvin didn't even need to say something for as soon as the hole in the wall appeared...

Hugo, Jannette, Medea, Jane, and Zahra made a break for it towards the other side of that wall.

"Calvin!" Hugo was the last one who entered the hole in the wall.

He turned around and stared with worry at Calvin.

"Don't mind me! Just make a break for it! Rush to the main elevator in the Administration Block! Since these three big guys are here, the other patients of the asylum should be closeby!" Calvin cried out.

"I can't just leave you here!"

"Fucking run!" Calvin sent a piece of crumpled towards Hugo's direction, "Aarb, Push!"

He spat and the crumpled paper turned into an invisible shockwave that sent Hugo flying towards the others who were already far away.

"Calvin!!!"

Hugo shouted with tears in his eyes when he saw Calvin being surrounded by the three madmen.

He struggled while he was in the air, but for some reason...

He felt his body being shackled by invisible chains.

But before he could discern whatever it was that prevented him from moving.

He had already landed beside the other newbies.

"You heard what he said, let's make a break for it!"

Jannette's eyes went bloodshot from the adrenaline coursing through her veins.

Hugo turned to look at her and madly shouted, "What the fuck are you talking about? Are you saying that we should leave Calvin and let him die?!"

"Yes, that's right! We should let him die!"

"What? Surrounded by those three bastards, do you think that he can still be saved? If we went there, we're all going to die! Let him sacrifice himself for the greater good. Let's go!"

Jannette coldly spat and turned around to walk towards the decontamination chamber leading to the Administration Block.

But she stopped when she realized that no one was following her.

Do they really want to die that much?

"What are you doing standing there?! Once Calvin dies, we'll be the next target!"

She swept her gaze at the others and found that there were serious looks on their faces. Jannette may be in a panic at this moment, but that didn't mean that her mental faculties were impaired. She detected that there was something wrong, so she couldn't help but ask.

"What's wrong?"

"What's wrong, you say? Even if we can reach the Administration Block, we will not be able to use the elevator since we do not have the keycard for the Security Room which will unlock the main elevators! In other words, we will still not be able to escape!" Medea explained.

Jannette's face paled at once, "Shit! What should we do then?" Her knees went weak and she collapsed onto the ground, apparently having lost all hope to live.

Jane and Zahra had the same look as her. Earlier, they still had that tiny little hope of living but realizing that they still didn't have the access keycard and with Calvin facing certain death. These newbies suddenly lost hope and fell into despair.

Even Hugo wasn't an exception.

But...

He was the type that never gave up.

Clenching his fists and gnashing his teeth.

He turned to look at the others and declared, "I'll do it! I'll go back to try and save Calvin! If he's dead, then I'll retrieve his body along with that keycard, and if he's alive... I'll make sure to bring him back with us as well as that keycard!" His declaration was quite bold and courageous.

"No!"

But unexpectedly...

Someone denied his proposal.

It was Jannette.

"What in the hell is wrong with you? What is wrong with rescuing Calvin? If it wasn't for him we wouldn't be alive for so long!" Hugo angrily barked.

"So, what? What if he's the reason why we managed to endure for so long in this godforsaken place? Does that even matter? Keep in mind that this is a team effort! Even if he did contribute a lot, you can't just say that his lone effort was the reason why we're alive!"

"Don't you dare scream at me like that!"

"You..." Hugo swept his gaze at the others.

Scarlette, Jane, and Zahra had complicated looks on their faces.

But none of them dared to speak up.

"You bunch of ungrateful bastards!" Hugo gnashed his teeth and decisively turned around.

He then made a break for it towards the direction where Calvin was left behind.

Medea turned to look at his disappearing figure and let out a sigh.

Afterwards, she glanced at the other women and said, "I'll go ahead and follow him."

Without waiting for their reply, she ran after Hugo.

Despite the heavy injuries that she sustained, she still maintained a calm and composed look on her face. But she herself knew that she was incredibly nervous and afraid. But just because she was afraid didn't mean that she could just abandon a teammate.

She could recognize kindness when she saw one.

She found out that when Calvin was helping them earlier. He was doing it all, not because he would have some benefits nor to impress the girls. It was because he genuinely did want to help them.

This was why at this moment, Medea decided to follow after Hugo and try to save Calvin.

Furthermore, even if they did fail to save Calvin she still had her own trump cards.

Any woman out there had a secret or two that they would never tell anyone including their husbands. As a woman herself, Medea also had her own secrets and that was the reason why she managed to live for so long inside this asylum.

The Butcher, The Benevolent Father, and Arthur Chase stood in front of Calvin.

The Butcher was breathing heavily out of excitement, while Arthur Chase had a look of disdain on his face. Arthur Chase was never a man who could swing both ways, so when he discovered that the person they had cornered was a man instead of a woman that he could potentially toy with...

He couldn't help but scoff in disdain.

The Benevolent Father, on the other hand, had a look of anger on his face.

His other darlings in this asylum told him that Calvin planned on escaping with his heretic friends and he felt inexplicably angry realizing that Calvin wanted to renege on his promise. The Benevolent Father had the title Benevolent for he was indeed forgiving and compassionate.

But...

Calvin touched his reverse scale.

Anything that involved his daughter must be taken seriously and with the highest priority.

Calvin had promised that he would be in his daughter's upcoming birthday party, but he was actually trying to renege on his promise?

Unforgivable!
