Chapter 155 - I dont deserve her (2/2)

Lyn deserves happiness; he can't be the one to bring it to her. Soon, the day would come where he will have to end his relationship with her. The thought made him sick to the very core of his being. But Kazuya understood full well that he couldn't expect things to continue the way they are now forever.

Besides, he has to return to the Sound Kingdom soon. When that happens, Kazuya knows that he can no longer put off his work. He can no longer feign ignorance and give the proper report the elders have been asking for. This entire time he has been proving them with as little information as possible regarding Lyn. They've been letting him off the hook this entire time. But for how much longer?

...

Kazuya isn't in a good mood when he has to split away from Lyn again, even more so since that Shioka guy's appearance. The girl too seemed reluctant to leave his side. However, in the end, he and Lyn still parted ways. A deep sigh escaped his lips.

' That girl's life is already one that will be colored with darkness. Her destiny foretells a clear bad omen, a cloud this large won't disappear'. Even so sensei, even so, sensei he wants to do something for her sake.

If he can help her, he would do anything to make sure that she is living a peaceful life.

He would do anything. He may not deserve to be with her.

Kazuya halts in his tracks and Let's out a large sigh.

So that's how it was, even without the others nagging him not to go. There's still someone who will stop him, huh? Kazuya had finally escaped his friend. No, he had no choice but to result in extreme measures. He had seen a magic flair earlier and didn't waste any time executing a quick plan in his hand. He ended up drugging his friend. Kazuya didn't want to resort to such a method. But her life might be at stake; he will risk nothing a second time.

Again, huh? That time. ...if it were to happen again, then she would definitely fall apart. Even so, Kazuya stops walking. ” I wasn't expecting you of all people to stop me.”

The person doesn't reveal themselves and hides behind the lamp post, yet Kazuya already knew who it was. ”Tsk, not like I had much of a choice yer know? Even if I am of higher rank, there's no use in disobeying that guy. Kazuya, don't help her.”

Kazuya clenched his fist, ” Don't you guys know what you're dealing with here?”

If it was just a normal group, then he wouldn't help her. After all, he of all knew people understood it, the extent of her strength. That's right; if it was just any old group, then there wouldn't be a need for him to worry. Being a side of this world meant you'd always have someone who would target you. But those people don't kill each other; sure they'll beat you up so you can't move. But killing is never an option. Since the moto is usually 'It's the stronger who wins.'

That's right it was because of that motto that's he's always felt as though there wasn't any need to worry about her. At least when it came to a fight that is. Kazuya knew that there are plenty of other reasons why he should worry about the girl. That strength is deadly after all, it's something that has caused her a great deal of pain.

His gaze lands on the skies, grey. It will rain.

”What is it?”

”It'll rain tonight. With the skies in towns like this, you can usually tell when the clouds are facing in a particular direction,” Kazuya explained.

The cloaked figure suddenly cursed.

”On second thoughts go. Maybe you should go too. That girl gets especially dangerous when it's raining. It was something that was discovered straight after you left, though. So you probably don't know about it. It's like she becomes momentarily possessed by some sort of demon or something. It's not as if she will harm anyone she knows. But even if they are tar getting her, they don't deserve to die. When she's in that mode though she won't give it a second thought.”

Once those words were said, Kazuya didn't hesitate to run in the direction where he had seen the magic shot. Geez, that girl she really does know how to get herself involved in even more problems. Though Kazuya already knew about it in a sense. After all, he was her partner, already back then he noticed it. That there was something about her, that was different.

Her aura of strength, even though it was already crushing and strong then. Kazuya felt as though it was something that could still improve. Damm it, even if he runs now he won't be able to make it.

'Well, that is only if you need our help.'

He grits his teeth; there's no choice. He didn't want to result to asking them. But if it's like this, then there's no choice anymore even if he has to swallow up his pride to do this. How pathetic, thinking of pride now? Lyn is in danger.
