After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World - Chapter 612

Chapter 612: Becky
While various movements appeared all around the territory, there were also a few who simply didn’t have a sense of urgency. For instance, there was Becky who was walking around and observing the aftermath.

Rather, while she did feel a little sad for the victims, for the most part she was just happy to walk around without feeling someone would pull her every two alleys or so.

It wasn’t like they’d appreciate her help, anyway.

Although she never did anything to anyone, just the fact that she was once Fargo’s woman naturally made her an evil woman. As she walked, she would only receive looks and frowns. If she walked closer, those frowns would be deeper.

So… she didn’t bother helping anyone out, thinking that she’d be spat on or mocked instead.

Don’t blame her for being selfish. She had suffered too much to risk her own skin for others, and it had never worked her way.

Hey! She almost got gang raped when she tried helping other women! She was lucky she was pretty and the leaders were possessive, so she was fortunately limited to one at a time.

When she felt she was going to get shared, she would act coy and make the man feel extremely special—like, her wanting to sleep only with him and him alone—thus causing him to change his mind.

Anyway, because she was smooth, she managed to escape the fate of becoming a sex toy for the Rongos after the lord got tired of her. Rather, she also found another use for herself under Fargo’s protection.

How? She immediately showed her knowledge in industrial engineering—yes, that was her major in college—and was assigned to various tasks.

As for why she didn’t do this in the first place, there simply wasn’t a chance to. How could she use her knowledge on a bunch of weeds? There was no one willing to support her ‘useless’ field and her only ‘value’ as a woman was to bring the men pleasure.

It was only when Fargo found out that they were actually technologically behind another territory—the incredibly intriguing Altera—that they decided to add manpower in this area.

Anyway, she really wanted to move to Altera but she hoped to find acquiantances this time. She was among the unlucky to have gotten herself a ‘slave’ status, and she needed to know for sure what she was getting into.

She looked around for a couple more minutes, and she couldn’t help but brighten at the sight of familiar faces!

They were fellow engineering students—though all of different fields—and she had shared a few subjects with them back then.

She squealed and raised her hand, waving at them. “Crow, Dog, Sunny!” “Hey! It’s me~!”

They turned to her almost simultaneously.

Becky made a beautiful sight, but the trio cringed and ignored her, going away and dealing with the clean up of another place.

Becky: “…”

She pursed her lips, and crossed her arms.

How rude…

…

“Whew that was close!” Dog said, patting his chest with his unbandaged hand. He looked pale and nervous, as if just escaping death.

Sunny pursed her lips and nodded, while Crow shrugged, not really caring for gossip.

Becky had a horrible reputation back in college due to various rumors. It was cemented by the fact that she was, apparently, one of Fargo’s women back then.

Anyway, they didn’t want to be associated with her at all!, so they ran away for fear of her trying to attach to them!

Good riddance!

…

A bit more time passed and the clean-up was nearing its end, with most of the heavily injured Alterans already gone back through the array.

Amidst the busy streets, there were two doggos energetically walking around. They followed the medics around, helping with the transfer of the injured to the makeshift clinic.

While they were helping people out, making them happy with their fluff and smiles, it had to be noted that Fufi was often turning his head to the gorgeous white wolf. The dog’s tail was wagging wildly, showing his emotions.

Luis, who was nearby cleaning up the last of the Fargo guards on the streets, looked on with a complicated expression. “Wow, Fufi’s got a girlfriend already. How old is he? Two years old?”

Mao stared at him, helping out a ‘slave’ safely transfer to the stretcher using his ability. “Just find someone to court too.”

As strong soldiers, they actually shouldn’t have trouble finding women. It was just that they were really ill-equipped for the romantic missions and often times offending the women in the end.

The worst among them was actually Gill. It was still incomprehensible to them how he found such a good girlfriend who could tolerate him!

Then again, Boss Gill was very handsome. The tolerance for such a handsome jerk was probably as high as Mount Nispedana.

Anyway, Luis shrugged the envy in the end, continuing on settling the injured and the like. However, at some point, he felt a body fall nearby him and he instinctively pulled the person up.

It went fast and his pull wasn’t weak and it ended up pulling the light weight straight to his body.

He blinked, awkwardly staring down at the woman whose softness rested on him.

“Thank you…” she mumbled, making him freeze as he heard of her soft voice. His eyes widened a bit as he looked at how her eyelashes fluttered as she blinked. It tickled his heart like feathers.

“No… no problem,” Luis mumbled (note: gulped). “Do you want me to carry you to the clinic?”

She laughed at him as she separated from him and stood up properly. “No, I just tripped.”

Luis looked at her and the space behind her, seeing locals who didn’t seem to give them—or rather, the woman—any good looks.

She saw his confusion and smiled, but Luis could see the hint of bitterness there. “They hate me because I used to be Fargo’s lover.”

“Eh?” He exclaimed, a bit loudly and also a little pale.

She looked at the surprised man with a deep frown and her eyes glazed a bit. “I… thank you for your help,” was all she said before turning away.

Luis followed her as she disappeared into an alley, immediately getting pulled aside himself. He turned to see it was the Crow Trio, looking at him in worry.

“LUIS!”

“Oh, it’s you three.”

“She’s bad news! Stay away from her!”

Luis looked at them with pursed lips, just shrugging noncommittally, and went back to work.

However, his eyes couldn’t help but occasionally gravitate towards the place that woman went to, unsure what he was thinking.
