Aryan legacy

Malungo went back to the hotel. Charlotte was in the lobby, calling the receptionist who was no longer there. When she saw Malungo coming in, she exclaimed:

– Malungo, where were you?

– I chased an android kidnapper, but he wasn't dangerous, so I came back.

– Android kidnapper? Is that why the receptionist isn't here anymore?

– Yes. But what are you doing here in the lobby?

– I was going to ask the receptionist if she had seen you. We were all worried, even Anelise!

– Was she worried about me? This is indeed something strange.

– You sent us that message asking if we wanted to watch the tournament finals. We couldn't find you anywhere and we thought something serious had happened.

– Relax, I'm fine.

Charlotte lightly slapped Malungo's face, crying. She complained:

– At least let us know before trying something so dangerous! I don't know what I would do if I lost you.

Charlotte cared intensely about her friends. She was very sentimental, so she sacrificed himself whenever they were in danger. Malungo was like that too, so he felt better with the slap. She continued:

– Will you still want to see the tournament?

– Of course I will. Now I'm more excited than ever!

– Let's meet up with the others, then.

Everyone was looking for Malungo around the skyscraper. Charlotte sent a message for everyone to gather. As it was almost lunchtime, they chose the main dining room of the hotel. It was a fancy place, full of fancy people.

When they saw Malungo, they smiled with relief. They sat down to lunch. Anelise was looking at him with a malicious smile, much more frightening than usual. She said:

– Look if it's not our dear Malungo. I missed you, did you know?

– I'm glad to hear that, it doesn't even sound like you.

– Of course I worry about you. We're friends, aren't we?

– Yes, but why are you smiling like that?

– It's because I'm so happy to see you that I can't help myself.

Malungo suspected the veracity of that statement. She was certainly hiding something. Yuuto commented:

– Thank you for that message, Malungo. I was all set to watch the finals, but I didn't know when they would be.

– I didn't even know about them until earlier today. They are on the home page of the association's application. You should use it more often.

– I am afraid of being tracked while using this app.

Genesis suggested a solution:

– If that's the case, Yuuto, I can create a new cell phone just to access the application. You can discard it later.

– Thank you, Genesis. That would help a lot.

Malungo continued:

– By the way, Ishigawa-san, did you know that Caliel is missing and Revon will replace her?

– I didn't know that. But, if Caliel disappeared the same day I died and still hasn't come back, that means she died.

– The same day you died?

– Oh, that's nothing. The news said that I died fighting Wisedroid, but I still don't remember very well what happened.

– You must be suffering from amnesia. You should see a doctor. Can't Kiseki heal you?

– I've tried, but it seems like it's not something related to my body. It seems that an outside force prevents my memories from returning to me.

– That's very strange. Anyway, let's have some fun in today's battle.

– For sure. Revon looked amazing when she fought Caliel in the semifinals.

– Did you see the battle?

– Yes. The first day I returned to Tokyo.

They talked some more after they finished lunch. They went to their respective rooms to change. Malungo was lucky enough to have two girls in his room.

On purpose, he took longer at lunch. He was the last to return to the room. He opened the door slowly to peek out at that miraculous image.

Genesis and Charlotte were standing talking, only in their underwear. Malungo enjoyed every second of it. He was in his youth, so it was natural for him to be interested in this.

When Charlotte turned to pick up her cell phone from a table, she saw the half-open door. She went to it to close it, thinking that the wind had pushed it.

When she grabbed the doorknob, she remembered that Malungo hadn't returned yet. That looked very suspicious, so she opened the door to see if anyone was in the hallway.

She saw Malungo squeezing himself against the wall so as not to be seen. He started to run. Charlotte threw her cell phone as hard as she could at his head.

She used her power to increase the cellphone's speed in the air. As Malungo knew she would react like that, he quickly lowered his head.

The cell phone went straight through the window at the end of the hall. It was never found again. As Malungo ran, she shouted:

– Get back here, you bastard! You won't get away with it!

Genesis created another cell phone for her. Charlotte could have run faster than him, but she calmed down after destroying her cell phone and went back to her room.

She was very embarrassed at having been seen half naked by his friend, but destroying any object was enough to quell the anger.

Only Anelise and Malungo hadn't finished changing. Genesis and Charlotte went outside to wait. Without looking at him, Charlotte complained:

– I'll never forgive you for that, but... did you like it…?

– I sure loved it.

– Oh, this is very shameful! Go change soon and get out of my sight.

Genesis didn't seem bothered by any of that. She was smiling, as if she actually enjoyed it. But she was smiling most of the time, so it was hard to know what she was thinking.

The side door opened. It was Anelise, who was still wearing her usual military clothes. Charlotte asked:

– Anelise, why haven't you changed yet? The match will start in a few hours, but we'd better get going soon.

– I am not going. I'll stay with Malungo. I need to talk about something important with him.

Malungo, surprised by that preference, said:

– Me? But I myself had planned that I would go with them…

– Malungo, you wouldn't reject a little chat with me, would you? Or would you rather refuse the attention I'm giving you for the first time in your miserable life?

Anelise said this with an even more hideous smile than before. Her eyes stared straight into Malungo's, piercing his soul. He looked away, but he couldn't help that ominous aura. He responded:

– Okay, okay, you won! I'll stay with you. Why are you so interested in me all of a sudden?

– I'll tell you everything about me. Be glad a goddess like me is giving so much attention to an impure nigger.

Charlotte, bothered by those insults, commented:

– Anelise, I already told you to stop it. We're friends, so stop this racist talk about impurities.

– Shut up, Charlotte, I'm not talking to you.

Charlotte was surprised by her aggressiveness. She was the person Anelise treated the best, but it seemed that person was now Malungo. She responded:

– Okay, whatever. If you want to be with him so badly, there's nothing I can do.

Tatsuya, Yuuto and Haji also came out of their rooms, prepared. Seeing everyone, Malungo apologized:

– Guys, something unexpected has happened and I will not be able to go. Go without me.

Confused, Yuuto asked:

– What happened, Malungo?

– Anelise really wants to talk to me, and it needs to be now. We'll meet you later.

Anelise noticed an error in his statement:

– We're not meeting with you later. Malungo and I will have a long talk. We won't have time to see you.

Tatsuya sensed that something was going to happen between them. As he was married and had a child, he thought they would form a family together. He smiled, saying:

– There's no need to be afraid, Malungo. Every adventure starts like this. Enjoy youth while you can.

Malungo understood Tatsuya's interpretation instantly. He was embarrassed, thinking he was right. He looked at Anelise, but her devilish gaze didn't seem to say the same thing as Tatsuya's.

Yuuto didn't understand any of that. He was too young for that conversation, so he just watched in silence. Tatsuya continued:

– Well, we have to go. Let's leave the two alone.

When everyone left, Anelise pulled Malungo to his room. She threw him on the bed, laying down soon after, very close to him. Extremely embarrassed and unprepared, he commented:

– Anelise, don't you think we should start with something simpler first?

Anelise didn't answer, just put her finger in front of his mouth, as a symbol of silence. She started to speak:

– Malungo, have you heard about the Third Reich?

– Oh... yes. It was the period of Nazi Germany, right?

– Exactly. However, many historians claim that it never really took hold. They always say that Nazism was not the Third Reich. How dare they doubt my great-great grandfather?

– Anelise, I'm not sure I understand what you're getting at.

– Do you want to form the Fourth Reich with me?

– What? This is a joke, right?

Anelise's eyes and smile didn't make it sound like a joke. She looked more serious than ever. Malungo, not knowing what to answer, said:

– But why would I accept such an offer? Hitler was a villain, and I don't side with villains. Also, I am not part of the Aryan race. I would be persecuted by such a regime.

– I'll tell you a secret that even Charlotte doesn't know: my great-great-grandfather was the famous Adolf Hitler. I have the right to inherit his empire.

While at school, Malungo was very interested in history. Not even he himself knew that Hitler had descendants. Surprised, he stated:

– There's no way that can be true. He died without having any children.

– My lineage had to go into hiding for over a century because of public opinion. It isolated itself in different corners of Germany after Adolf-sama died. He himself made a point of erasing the family's identity before he died, so that they could live in peace.

– I do not believe that. Even if it's true, you don't have to follow their legacy. You are Anelise, a young woman free to be whatever you want to be.

Malungo realized that Anelise felt chained to her lineage. He wanted to free her from the chains of that cursed family. However, she replied something unexpected:

– You're right, I'm free. And I chose to follow the same path as my great-great-grandfather. In fact, I want to be even bigger than him. I want not only to dominate Germany, but the whole world this time.

– Anelise, you can't be serious. We've known each other for years, and I'm sure you're not like that.

– Do you think you know anything about me? I am of the Aryan race and I agreed to ally myself with a disgusting monkey like you. But I'm offering you my pity to continue the Hitler bloodline. If you agree to have a child with me, we will rule the world together.

– What are you talking about, Anelise? This is definitely not you. And why would someone from the Aryan race have a relationship with an african?

– If we join the best race with the worst, we can discover something new. Our child could be a god beyond our comprehension. Since we've never tried this before, it's possible.

– No way, Anelise. I will get you out of this illusion. You are not well and need treatment.

Anelise never stopped smiling. Malungo was growing scared, but he decided to face it to save his friend. She, still smiling, replied:

– Are you sure you can challenge me, you disgusting pig?

– Wasn't I a monkey until a few seconds ago?

– I don't care what you are. Your race is so horrible that it should be erased from existence. However, I'm having the mercy to try something new and give you the chance to take over the world with me. It's like they say: opposites attract.

– I won't change my mind. I will get you out of this illusion, no matter what happens to me!

– Are you sure? I'll give you one more chance.

Malungo would respond with all the willpower he had. He wasn't going to change his mind, because he knew what the right thing to do was. However, the fear that he felt in his heart reached its peak. The answer he chose would change the course of his life.

Anelise waited for the answer for seconds that seemed like hours to him. He froze, but she continued to smile with her eyes as red as blood penetrating his soul. He gathered all the courage that was left in his heart and shouted:

– NO WAY AM I GOING TO ALLY WITH NAZISM! I WILL PROTECT YOU EVEN IF IT COST MY LIF-

Realizing that he hadn't changed his mind, Anelise pierced his heart with her fist. Still smiling, she commented:

– Protect me? Malungo, you are very funny. Well I gave you a chance and you turned it down. It's a pity, such an experiment would be very interesting.

Malungo didn't think she would actually do that. As he was in Japan, he imagined himself in an anime in which the protagonist fearlessly faces danger and the antagonist respects his courage, deciding to join his side.

He thought this was a perfect formula for resolving inevitable conflicts. He never imagined that a friend could betray him so easily. He trusted her and expected her to trust him too.

The reality proved the opposite. As if dissatisfied with losing such a fine specimen, Anelise began to torture him. She commented:

– Well, I can't waste you. I need to at least have some fun before you die. Have you ever heard that the femur is one of the most painful bones to break?

As Anelise was stronger than Malungo, he couldn't do anything to resist. She lifted one of his legs while stepping on the other with crushing force. She pulled the other one back, ripping it from his body.

Slowly pressing Malungo's femur, he screamed and cried in deep agony. He had never been tortured to that level , not even in the army. When he couldn't resist any longer, the bone broke.

Hearing the screams, hotel guards rushed to the scene and broke down the door. Anelise took a pistol from her pocket and shot each one that appeared, without looking at them. She was enjoying this exciting moment, so she couldn't divert her attention.

7-Up increased the kill time, so Malungo wouldn't die as quickly as he wanted. This was advantageous to Anelise, who wanted to enjoy as much time as she could.

She began to slowly pull out all his nails, then his teeth. When he couldn't take the pain anymore, he fainted. She kicked him hard to make him wake up, but nothing happened. He died a little earlier than expected.
