Villain Retirement

Chapter 1102: Chapter 1102: The Rise of the Pink Bunny

"Look at this, Miss Pepondosovich - it looks like you."

"Don't you know how racist that sounds?"

There were thunderous quakes reverberating everywhere - the ground itself, shaking endlessly. But perhaps more than the noise, the people who were running around in haste everywhere were more prevalent. And yet, even with all of this chaos happening around him, Riley's attention was on the creature that was inside a large aquarium.

It looked like a rabbit, except perhaps a meter long and had flippers instead of feet.

"And no, it doesn't look like me!" Miss Pepondosovich rolled her eyes, "Monkeys look more like you than that thing looks like me. And why are you even looking at that!?"

"Because they left it here, Miss Pepondosovich."

The aquarium, and many other things were brought out of their ships and just placed on the cargo bay as most wanted to help in fending off the Order of Nothing, which was currently launching an attack on Everywhere.

"Ack, anyway - did you see the ships attacking this place? They looked much smaller than the one that destroyed that poor planet," Miss Pepondosovich placed her hands on her waist as she waited for Captain Kuhoo and his crew to also finish unloading their cargo. "Yes," Rhys turned to look at the walls of the cargo bay, "There are 21 small ships surrounding this place - and I do not think it is necessary for anyone to fight back since I believe these 21 ships will not be able to pass through Everywhere's defenses, Miss Pepondosovich."

"...Then why are these people rushing to-Oh, I get it," Miss Pepondosovich let out a small but very deep sigh as she continued to watch Kuhoo and the crew; finally noticing the hint of excitement on their faces, "They just want to scrap."

"Miss Pepondosovich, Riley Ross!"

And soon, Kuhoo waved his hands, slightly hopping as he gestured to Riley and Miss Pepondosovich to get inside the ship,

"Get in! Get in!"

"Fine, fine..." Miss Pepondosovich just waved her hands as she got inside the ship. As for Riley, he stopped right beside Kuhoo, shaking his head while his body started to shrink.

"We are supposed to be refugees, Captain Kuhoo - you do not bring refugees you just supposedly rescued into battle."

"That... it's... it's protocol for the two of you to stick with me," Kuhoo could really only scratch his chin, "It... it just so happens that we were suddenly attacked. It's just the timing, is all."

"Hm," Riley just shrugged before stepping inside the ship, with Kuhoo quickly moving along with him as the door behind them closed up.

"Hurry! Hurry!" Kuhoo clapped his hands several times as he rushed to the cockpit; his crew, already completely ready as they just quickly started the ship and flew away without following any more undocking procedures.

It wasn't only them, most of the ships in the cargo bay just shot out of the hangar one by one; some even almost hitting each other as they wanted to be the first to kill as many enemies as possible.

"Wow, they're lively."

"The two of you, please strap in!" Kuhoo quickly pointed at Riley and Miss Pepondosovich, who went to the small kitchen of the ship instead of sitting down and buckling themselves on the chairs.

"We will be fine, Captain," Riley just shook his head - he and Miss Pepondosovich not budging or moving at all even as the ship shot out of the hangar at breakneck speed,

"Please, just focus on your battle."

Riley did not seem to care at all as he just grabbed something from his pocket - it was some sort of snack that he bought on the way back to the hangar. Miss Pepondosovich also grabbed several drinks from her backpack as the two of them just casually started to eat there and then. "Wh..." Kuhoo stared at the for a few seconds before just letting out a sigh and focusing on what was in front of him, "Let's get these motherfuckers! For the Order of Everything!"

And with those words, his crew also let out a war cry that only Miss Pepondosovich and Riley could hear.

And thus, started their epic battle in space.

"Have you noticed, Riri?" Miss Pepondosovich leaned closer to Riley as she grabbed the snack he was handing to her.

"No, Miss Pepondosovich, I have not."

"I didn't even say what yet," Miss Pepondosovich continued to whisper, "I don't see anyone

flying around or shooting laser beams from their eyes."

"Hm," Riley nodded, "I suppose so, Miss Pepondosovich."

"Has your sister and the others really not explored this part of the universe?" Miss Pepondosovich squinted her eyes, "This... honestly feels like we're in a completely different dimension entirely, no?"

"I do not really feel that way, Miss Pepondosovich," Riley shook his head.

"I mean, disregard the Order of Nothing and their leader who happens to be called Darkday - this feels like a different dimension, no?" Miss Pepondosovich squinted her eyes further, "No themarians, completely unaffected by the gods' descent - it just feels like... it's different."

"I have seen much weirder universes, Miss Pepondosovich," Riley shook his head, "The Domain of the Gods, for instance."

"The Domain of the Gods is boring and feels completely old," Miss Pepondosovich groaned and waved her hand, "Ack, you'll get what I mean sooner or later. It-"

"Ah! It's the Nothing Nothing squad!"

And before Miss Pepondosovich could finish her words, Kuhoo's crew suddenly gasped and started howling and cheering like monkeys. Miss Pepondosovich glanced at Riley for a bit before approaching the cockpit to check on what the commotion was all about.

And there, she could see a red ship flying faster than every other ship; shooting down one of the enemy without even letting it evade or move at all.

"The Nothing Nothing... that's the club you wanted to join in, right?"

"It's not a club - they are official hunters sanctioned by the Overseer," Captain Kuhoo seemed offended by Miss Pepondosovich's words, "They... are the best of the best of what they do, and what they do best isn't very-!!!"

And before Kuhoo could finish his words, a hole suddenly opened up in their ship and started sucking out everything that wasn't latched onto the walls and floors.

"We... we're hit!"

"Yes, can't you be any more obvious!?" Kuhoo bellowed, "But how were we hit!? There's no

enemy-"

"It's... the Nothing Nothing squad accidentally hit us!"

"What do you-Wait, we're receiving comms from them!"

"Uhh..." Miss Pepondosovich turned to look at the hole in their ship, "...Shouldn't you do something about that first?"

"Ssh!"

[You are in the way. Move and return to the station or we will report you for obstruction.]

"O... oh..." Kuhoo and the rest of his crew could not help but just look at each other as they heard the comms, "Then we should-—"

And before Kuhoo could finish his words again, he could not help but just stop talking as he felt the noise in the ship die down. All of them quickly looked at the hole their ship suffered, only to see it now sealed shut with Riley standing in front of it.

And before they could even say anything or wonder what just happened, Riley placed his hand on the wall and caused it to open again.

"Riri...?" Miss Pepondosovich raised an eyebrow, "Wait... don't tell me you're planning on joining in-What are you doing!?"

"Pav-"

"Shtap! Stop!" Miss Pepondosovich quickly leaped toward Riley; causing the entire ship to

bounced as she moved in front of Riley and kicked her hands down, "Are you trying to just kill everyone here!? We're supposed to just relax here, relax!"

"Hm..." Riley just blinked a couple of times before just shrugging his shoulders and looking outside, "...Then I suppose I will do this by hand, then."

"Wait!" Miss Pepondosovich once again blocked Riley's path, "Someone from the Order of Nothing might recognize you... if they really are your clones or something. So... wait..." Miss Pepondosovich then started rummaging through her backpack again before pulling out a helmet a pink motorcycle helmet with two horns to fit her rabbit ears in,

"So..." A very small smirk started to crawl on Miss Pepondosovich's face as she handed the helmet to Riley, "...Wear this."

"Okay." And Riley wore it without any hesitation at all, even materializing a black suit that was laced with pink lines that completely complemented the helmet. "What... are the two of you doing...!?" Kuhoo finally snapped out of his stupor as he watched

as Riley just casually pushed himself out of the ship. And before Kuhoo could say anything

else, the hole once again just shut closed,

"Don't tell me-"

"Can't stop him," Miss Pepondosovich shrugged as she approached the cockpit and just stood beside the captain's seat, "He acts like that, but he is probably bored out of his mind. Watch...

...you're about to see something very cool."

"What do you..."

"Well, actually..." Miss Pepondosovich squinted her eyes,

"...there's also a chance that you're about to see a massacre, which isn't as cool."
