NTR Rogue in the Apocalypse-Chapter 266: Flaunting Amber
Silence fell over the park as John stood there, breathing heavily.
Elaine slowly got to her feet and looked at him, but footsteps interrupted the silence before she could say anything.
"Well, well," a man’s voice boomed through the park.
"Nicely done, John. It seems you’ve gotten stronger."
The man’s silhouette was obscured by the thick mist enveloping the park, but John already knew who he was. He narrowed his eyes and willed Appraisal into view.
[Michael ??]
[Age: ??]
[Strength: 45.1]
[Vitality: 15]
[Agility: 51]
[Energy: 33.2]
"Michael. What a pleasant surprise."
John’s tone was laced with sarcasm, and Michael chuckled.
"Oh, don’t be like that. You and I can be friends if we put our differences aside."
John shook his head.
"I don’t think so, Michael. I can’t allow you to keep pursuing Amber."
Michael’s figure emerged from the fog, and John noticed he was holding a knife in his hand.
"Oh, come on, John. Can’t we work this out like adults?"
John shrugged.
"I’m afraid not, Michael. You and your people are dangerous, and I can’t let you keep causing problems for everyone else."
Michael smiled and raised his hands.
"Well, it seems we’re at an impasse then. But you see, John, you’re surrounded now. You can’t beat all of us," he said, and a group of around 20 men and women appeared behind him, armed to the teeth with weapons.
John raised his eyebrow.
"You think you can take me, Michael? You really must have a death wish."
Michael smirked, and suddenly, John felt a sharp pain in his back.
He spun around to see Elaine standing behind him, her sword drawn.
John smiled and shook his head.
"You know, I should’ve seen that coming. You were just using me, weren’t you?"
Elaine nodded.
"Yep, pretty much. Sorry, John, but this is a dog-eat-dog world."
John sighed and shook his head.
"Well, I guess it’s time to end this then. The truth is, I did see this coming," John said and Amber walked out of the bushes behind them, her gun aimed at Elaine’s head.
"Now, Michael, Elaine. Drop your weapons."
Michael burst out laughing.
"You really think the two of you can take all of us?"
John shook his head.
"No, but they can," he said as a group of 30 people appeared behind them.
John’s people had been waiting for the right moment, and now was that time.
Elaine withdrew her sword and looked around, her face pale with fear.
"Well, Michael. It looks like the tables have turned. Come here, Amber."
Amber stepped forward and stood next to John.
Michael was silent for a moment, then he threw his knife away and raised his hands.

"Alright, I give up. Let’s talk about this like adults."
John smiled and nodded.
"Good, we can talk now."
He motioned for his people to come forward, and they surrounded Michael and Elaine.
He threw his arm around Amber’s waist and pulled her close, his other hand still holding his dagger.
"So, Michael. Let’s talk about Amber."
Michael’s vein popped out of his forehead, but he kept his cool.
"What about her?"
"You know what about her, Michael. You’ve been obsessed with her since you met her, and I can’t allow it to continue."
Michael shook his head.
"She doesn’t belong to you, John. She can do whatever she wants."
"She doesn’t?" John asked with a wicked smile on his lips.
He pulled her even closer and wrapped his lips around hers, kissing her passionately.
Michael’s eyes widened with rage, but he kept his cool.
"You’re just trying to make me angry, John. I’m not falling for it."
"Am I? You know, Amber and I have gotten very close lately."
"Oh, really? You and Amber? Don’t make me laugh."
"Really, yes. In fact, all that’s left is..." His words trailed as he turned his gaze to her.
"Amber, do you want to be mine? As long as you are, I can promise you that you will always be safe and comfortable."
Amber’s eyes widened, and she blushed.
"Well, John... I..." she stuttered, not sure how to respond.
John placed his finger on her lips.
"Shhh... just give me a nod, and I’ll make you mine."
She nodded slowly, and John grinned, deepening the kiss and burying his hand in her ass.
Her face turned red, and she gasped. The system’s notification chimed in at that moment.
[Quest Completed]
[Delivering Random Skill Upgrade x2]
[Critical Hit (D) Upgraded to Critical Hit (B)]
John smirked and dismissed the notification.
Michael’s jaw clenched, and he lunged forward, but Zara appeared in a burst of flames, hitting the back of his head, sending him tumbling towards the ground.
John nodded towards Zara, but she ignored him.
’I have to deal with her soon,’ John thought. John had been able to use her skill by tricking the system and having sex with Zara, but ever since, she has been avoiding him.
He sighed and turned towards Michael.
"It’s time to end this, Michael."
Michael got to his feet, his eyes bloodshot with rage.
"You bastard! I’m going to kill you!"
He charged forward, his fists flying, but John dodged them easily, striking back with his dagger.
The blade cut deep into Michael’s side, and he stumbled back.
John struck again, slashing his throat.
Blood poured out of the wound, and Michael fell to the ground.
"You... bastard..." Michael gasped, his eyes wide with shock.
"You leave me no choice," Michael growled, pocketing his jacket.
John’s eyes widened as a glowing ball of energy came out of Michael’s pockets, and he swallowed it.
He could feel his strength and speed increasing as the energy flowed through his veins.
Michael lunged forward, his movements almost a blur, and John barely managed to block the blow with his dagger.
He stumbled back, and Michael’s fist connected with his jaw, sending him flying into a nearby tree.
Michael was on him in an instant, his eyes burning with rage.
"I’m going to kill you, John!" He growled, punching John repeatedly in the face.
John dodged the blows and kicked Michael in the stomach, sending him flying back.
"You’re going to regret this, John. You and your little group of friends. You can’t beat me now," Michael said, wiping the blood off his lips.
