Chapter 1729 Aftermath of Parry City\'s Incident -Part 11

The assist system within her informed her that her body had been fully repaired and there were no scars or burnt skin that were left from fighting against the Mecha Fire Dragon. And for the fact that Jin was here sleeping like a log would most likely indicate that he had defeated that Mecha Fire Dragon without any problems.

Still, she was curious about the news and wanted to see if there were any actions of him performing the act. Thus, she looked through the daily papers that were consistently uploaded into her holographic console if she wanted to take a look at it.

But the more she read the latest news, the more confused she was until Lynn requested the System to give her a quick breakdown of what had happened after she was knocked out. Thus, the System did what it could to give her the summary of events and led her to be shocked by the turn of events that transpired Jin to be a sleeping log. It also gave the course of action that Jin had been offered and what had been done at the moment as he tried to progress forward.

"Silly boy," Lynn said as she continued to lie down and held his hand, only to later realise that Jin was actually still sending his Maqi through their hand holding in order to regulate the flow within her. This was also possibly the reason why she was able to wake up with her consciousness intact.

And for those slight movements to not wake Jin up really did mean that he had really fought a tiring battle the day before and this was the time where his fatigue would be moving away from him.

Sadly, the job of the Interim Leader could not be any more bitter. Even as the notifications had been silenced by the System, Lynn heard the sounds of heels echoing as they came into the room. And when the person arrived, Lynn greeted her.

"Lynn. Glad to see you erm.. looked fine." Denise was a little stunned since she thought that Lynn had not regained consciousness.? And now, it seemed like she had disturbed a little quiet time between her and Jin.

"Thank you for helping me," Lynn spoke out and Jin instantly jerked himself up to wake and check on Lynn.

"Lynn, are you alright? Do you feel anything different for you?" Those were Jin\'s first words and Lynn smiled.

"I am okay. You do not have to worry about me," Lynn replied with a gentle smile as she sat up from the couch, only to remember that there were thousand and one wires being plugged into her entire body. From the legs all the way up to her neck.

"Guys, perform disengage protocols!" Denise shouted and the engineer at the back end acknowledged the order, allowing all those wires to be removed safely all at once. Lynn then stood up and tried to walk a little to find that everything was still in order.

"I am sorry, Jin but it looks like the City Council needed you to settle some internal issues," Denise said to break the reunion between the Mechanoid and her commander.

"No," Jin said and this left Denise\'s mouth to be wide open.

"No…? I understand that you want to spend some time with Lynn so I can tell them that you are still busy but ultimately you have to."

"I think you are mistaking something, Denise." Jin\'s tone got more serious than she could ever remember as if Denise had accidentally stepped on a tiger\'s tail.

"I was appointed as the Interim Leader by Archduke Dyke to take care of the monster outbreak. Now that the monster outbreak is over, his immediate concern is the takeover of the Empire." Jin said and Denise was signalling to him that this was not the best place to talk about that.

"Jin," Lynn called out to him.

"Yes?" Jin quickly turned to her.

"Tell her your honest thoughts and be ready to commit to them. You don\'t have to beat around the bush and use your supposed power of position to talk down to her." Lynn answered and that led to Jin clenching his fists.

"Sorry, Denise." It took some effort to spill the word sorry from Jin as he knew that Lynn was correct in her judgment of the current situation. "Tell them I will step down from being the Interim Leader. I am going some dungeon hunting with my squad and we will attack the \'target\' our own way."

"Huh? Wait, what? That is suicide. What are you thinking?" Denise said and Jin apologised once more. "This is running away from your responsibilities as well, do you know that?" Denise stated and Jin knew that even if Denise was guilt tripping him with the truth, he could not keep his head straight in the current political game he had been playing right now.

He grabbed Lynn and walked out of the room, only to find city council members and other government officials waiting to talk to Jin on certain issues but as they approached him, he ignored every single one of them and apologise to those he pushed away to get to the elevator.

Eventually, the elevator came and only Jin and Lynn as he explicitly told them to \'get out of the way\'. The officials were stunned by his behaviour and the elevator doors closed leaving only the two of them inside.
