Chapter 63 - 58 (1/2)

”You know, young lord I mean young miss, playing with fire makes you burn by it and it's more bad when playing a demon, you'll get---”

Chun woke up from dazed as she witness the closed distance between her and Art. Due to her happiness of seeing again her butler, she hugged him that made Art surprised. It stopped him from his actions as he was curious to Chun's antics.

The silver haired youth let go as she pouted at Art, ”I need food! Please make your very best dish, Art!”

Art was momentarily confused from his young master's strange action while he obliged on the request of the silver haired youth. Chun already finished her dinner but he wasn't opposed on stuffing the young master with much food as he liked that Chun would be fat and only for him to cuddle---

Immediately, the butler frowned from his odd thoughts as he went to the kitchen to prepare for the food. He folded his sleeves while he glanced at the silver haired youth who was staring with her doe eyes at his skillful display of knife skills.

Chun processed everything that happened. It was just awhile ago that she saw the life of Zero just ended due to his mistake of underestimating his enemy, and now she was here inside her penthouse while her butler was alive and standing meters away from her as he cooked.

Was it a dream or she just travelled back to time?

The silver haired young man had no idea what truly happened that led her back to one year ago, a year which she regretted so many things as she wasn't able to save the institute and the people that were killed, even Quin was crippled because of it. But she was happy that she could now redo it and she would make sure to take the right path.

And she won't let Art leave her side, again.

'Right, what was the day today?' She thought as she ran towards her bed while looking for the calendar. It's nine months prior to the tournament which the tragedy occurred. She gritted her teeth as she remembered what happened to her. That Mika, she would kill that fourth general.

Chun calmed herself as she dismissed her thoughts while she examined her body whether she was her former-self who had that disastrous constitution or she retained her half deity power due to the awakening of her first fragment of memories.

After confirming that she was still in her incomplete process of being a full deity. She unintentionally squealed in delight as Art instantly appeared at her side, asking for his young master's wellness.

The emotionless face of the butler made Chun laughed as she missed this. Her time with her cold yet caring butler.

”I'm fine, Art. Did you already prepared your specialty?”

”The food is now waiting for you to taste it, young lord.”

Chun hummed in responds as she examined again to be sure that the disastrous constitution of hers was really gone.

'Goodbye to avoiding my family members or the people around me,' she smiled while she stood up and went to the prepared food and tea. She missed this as well.

'Here I go! Let's dig in!”

The happy mood of the silver haired young man affected Art, too as the butler unconsciously lifted the corner of his lips while he observed Chun eating with relish.

----

If there would be good news then there would be a down side.

Chun noticed that her cultivation went back to zero, she was totally had no hint of qi energy on her body. Was it because she was now in her incomplete form that a normal martial practitioner's cultivation isn't suitable for her? Though, she had hints of divine energy on her body but the problem was she couldn't expend it here in the mortal world as it would arose suspicion and attention of some troublesome hidden forces.

The silver haired young man decided to practice her telekinetic gift which was an innate skill of a Shuho member. She needed to have another trick on her sleeve when an emergency situation appeared.

Though, she believed that Art would protect her from any kinds of trouble as she won't allow him to leave her side.

While reclining on her bed as she used her finger on lifting up a table through her telekinesis, she suddenly remembered something.

The silver box came into her mind. Right, supposed to be Ryo would be knocking outside of her penthouse as to ask for ȧssistance at this moment but why it didn't happen?

Chun called for Art who was on the other side, preparing for his make-shift bed. Usually, the butler slept in the sofa bed at the living area or in the work room's couch when he had something to do. But he preferred to sleep in the living area where he could easily see his young master.

The penthouse was a studio-type house where the living area, the kitchen and sleeping area was on the same room. As the bed of the silver haired young man was at the center of the vast single room, Art would be able to answer on his young master's beck and call with ease.

”Art, are there any guests or customers who are staying at the Shu House?”

”Only an old couple with a child was currently renting one of the rooms. What do you want me to do for you, young lord?” Art stated with his serious expression as he fixed his golden-rimmed eye glasses.

'Something had changed.' She thought.

”Oh, nothing. You can sleep now, Art.”

Chun crossed her legs as to try on connecting to Zero as she remembered the young man. She wanted to make sure that Zero did exist and if those happenings was not a dream but a reality that would occur in the future if she couldn't put things right.

Unfortunately, there was something blocking her. She was unable to connect or find the familiar aura of the young man as if he was currently not on this world. Where was he though?
