Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23: Chapter 23: Protection? Bombing the Nest

Nicholas Jensen swallowed hard.

He could only think that this woman, Seraphina Sullivan, was just too cruel.

’Beautiful women really are dangerous.’

But feeling the cold touch on his neck, he quickly nodded. "No problem! I’ll do whatever you say!"

Only then did Seraphina Sullivan put away the Silver Needle and look around. "This building is pretty sturdy. There’s a storage room on the second floor that should be good enough for you to hide in for now."

As she spoke, she grabbed Nicholas Jensen by the collar and started dragging him toward the stairs like a sack of potatoes.

"Hey, hey! Gently! I’m injured!" Nicholas Jensen winced in pain.

"Shut up. You can’t feel it anyway because of the paralysis. Keep yelling and I’ll just dump you somewhere."

Nicholas Jensen immediately fell silent, forcing a bitter smile as he let this fierce "savior" drag him upstairs.

He swore internally, ’Once I can move again, I’m staying far away from this terrifying woman... But if she can really protect me through the night, giving her a few weapons doesn’t seem like such a bad deal, does it?’

Seraphina Sullivan tossed Nicholas Jensen into the storage room.

Looking around, she noted it was a decent hiding spot. As long as Nicholas Jensen didn’t make a fuss, he probably wouldn’t be discovered by the parasitic monsters at night.

She then took a steamed bun from her backpack and tossed it to him. "Here, eat this and fill your stomach. Don’t starve to death."

Nicholas Jensen picked up the bun and stuffed it into his mouth.

Just as he finished eating, he saw Seraphina Sullivan’s back as she prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Nicholas Jensen called out to her. "You... you’re not staying here tonight?"

Seraphina turned back with a strange expression. "When did I ever say I was spending the night with you? You’re dreaming, aren’t you?"

"!!!"

Nicholas Jensen grew anxious. "Then what am I supposed to do if I run into danger in the middle of the night?!"

Seraphina paused, her foot hovering mid-step. She nodded thoughtfully. "True, that is a problem."

Seeing her turn back, Nicholas Jensen let out a long sigh of relief, his tense body relaxing.

However, before he could even catch his breath, he saw a special syringe glinting coldly suddenly appear in Seraphina’s hand. She wore a chilling smile on her face.

"Wh... what are you doing?!" Nicholas Jensen tried to shrink back in terror, but his paralyzed body wouldn’t budge. "You promised you’d protect me!"

"Don’t be nervous~" Seraphina waggled the syringe, her tone as light and cheerful as if she were about to give someone a vaccine.

"Now that you’ve had a full meal, it’s time to send you on your way... COUGH COUGH, no... I mean, it’s time for a good long sleep."

Nicholas Jensen...

"Wait! Don’t come near me—"

Before he could finish, Seraphina had already deftly plunged the Universal Syringe into his arm.

As the liquid was injected, the Effect of the [Pain Paralysis] was deliberately amplified several times over.

Nicholas Jensen felt the world spin as his vision rapidly darkened. The last thing he saw was Seraphina’s smiling face.

Nicholas Jensen’s final thought was: ’This woman is pure evil!’

’Just as I thought, the Effect is pretty much the same as an Anesthetic,’ Seraphina thought, looking with satisfaction at the instantly unconscious Nicholas Jensen. ’Sleep tight. By the time you wake up tomorrow, you’ll be making weapons for me.’

She efficiently dragged the unconscious Nicholas Jensen to the most hidden corner of the storage room and began her meticulous "Disguise project."

First, she moved a few empty cardboard boxes to stack around him. Then, she sprinkled a thick layer of dust over everything, and finally, she used some torn cloth and old newspapers to create a simple cover.

After all this, even if a parasitic variant broke in, it would never discover that a person was hidden here.

"Mm, perfect!" Seraphina clapped the dust from her hands, admiring her handiwork. ’This guarantees your safety and saves me from having to stand guard all night. Two birds with one stone~’

Recalling that Nicholas Jensen had survived such severe injuries, Seraphina became even more convinced that the [Body Transformation Pills] were definitely something good. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
