Chapter 335 - Other half (1/2)
”Kazuya,” Lyn suddenly said, breaking his train of thought.
”Hm?” His sentence fell short when he felt Lyn's lips on his. It was a brief kiss, but Kazuya felt his heart skipping a beat. His face flushed.
”Thank you for the present.”
”...Uh...”
”Kazuya, you're blushing.”
Shoot, Kazuya tried to avert his gaze. But unfortunately, Lyn already saw it. The girl extended her hand out towards his cheeks and laughed. ”Um, I'll start to feel embarrassed too. Why are you blushing?”
”Because you kissed me.”
”B—but you always kiss me weirdly, I see nothing wrong with what I just did there. Ah, maybe you're an idiot....”
Seeing Lyn ramble on, Kazuya knew she was nervous and calmed down. Geez, he placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. ”Were both idiots.”
...
While the elder pleasantly welcomed Lyn, Rhys, and Arthur. For some reason, the old man cut his introduction towards him short. No Kazuya knew why. This man doesn't like him for some reason. But that was fine with him; he is used to these things. That's why he let them go on ahead to have their tour around the church, while he remained in the waiting room.
Honestly, he wanted some time alone to think for
No sooner had that happened did somebody familiar step into the room. Here comes his other rival. ”It's unusual to see you in a place like this. What brings you here, Prince Allen?”
Yes, the person that just strolled inside is none other than his girlfriend's fiance.
”Is she here?”
”She's strolling around the grounds with the others. You can still catch up since they just left a few minutes back,” Kazuya said. They probably haven't covered a lot of places yet.
Then again, that tour is just a front to separate him from the others. If Prince Allen didn't come here, then by now, he would be in the middle of a trial of some kind.
”Then, that's good.” Allen sat down opposite him and took out a few files.
”The results of the investigation?”
”You should know by now that there is another sibling correct?”
”Yes,” Kazuya nodded. ”Prince Andrew other half.”
”Correct. That man was known as the tiger,” Allen placed a photo in front of him. A young man with black hair and emerald green eyes. Despite how innocent he looked, Kazuya felt the presence of a beast just looking at the photograph. Next, he placed a picture beside it; it was a picture of a man wearing western clothing. Cloak, top hat, and silver mask.
Kazuya frowned and examined the photo closely. The mask was well made, but one could still see the owner's eyes, ”The same person?”
”Yes, this man claiming himself as the Phantom thief is most likely the other Prince.”
”I see.”
”You don't seem surprised.”
”I thought I'd look for him. That's why this timing is perfect. He must have stolen that too. I would have gone after him for that reason alone, but what use is that? Now, I know he's Lyn's brother. I have a legit reason.”
Allen sighed, ”Please don't cause any more trouble. I'm still dealing with your last mess. You could refrain from being too flashy.”
Kazuya laughed, ”You think so? Lyn expressed an interest in coming along with me.”
A dark gaze fell on Allen's face, and Kazuya sweat fell. ”You know I won't take her even if she cries about it,” he mumbled. It's way too dangerous. Even if she is skilled, ”By the way, do you know anything about that scythe of hers? It looks familiar.”
