Chapter 620 - ‘Boring Brilliance’ (1/2)

Syr rested her chin on her right arm and asked, ”Such as?”

”One of those was to confirm my guesses.”

”What I just did for you. What else?”

”Also to ask you to promise not to interfere with my girls.”

”...” Syr pouted her mouth, ”Say, what do you think of me? Be honest.”

Kisuke stared straight into her eyes and with a straight face, he answered without any hesitation, ”A perverted stalker.”

Syr's face instantly crumpled up. She never would have thought that someone who knew her true identity would say that to her face. Unfortunately, although it was for her 'love', if one were to indeed describe her past actions, 'perverted stalker' would be a very term and she couldn't refute it, ”...Can't you word that in a nicer way?”

”I can reword it, but not nicely. How about a deviant observer?”

Syr's face crumpled even more.

”No? Then degenerate pursuer? Sicko chaser is also good.”

At that description, Syr started waving her hand wildly at him, ”Stop, stop, stop! That's enough! It's getting worse! I get it! I fully understand your impression of me!”

Kisuke stopped speaking and continued sipping on his hot chocolate.

Meanwhile, Syr could only sigh and just choose to move on, ”And? Why would you think that I'm going to interfere with their activities?”

While looking at his cup, Kisuke muttered, ”Because I have a feeling that you're slowly losing interest over that boy.”

Syr's eyes widened for a moment before frowning, ”What are you talking about?”

Stirring the cup, Kisuke continued, ”You know what I'm talking about. He's bright, I give you that. He also has a lot of potentials, however, that's about it. On top of being naive and ambitionless, he's also chasing after a nonexistent back. Sooner or later, he'll also forget that goal and would be satisfied with the way things are.”

”And even if you create an artificial stage for him to grow, you know that there are limits to that. You're also worried that you might overestimate him and just outright kill him.”

”I see that you also have the ability to see souls. It's probably because of this that you were able to see through my 'avatar' and you're also probably the person you gave Bell that strange weapon.” Syr then leaned back to her chair, ”However, you're wrong about some things.”

”Oh? Mind enlightening me to what those are?”
