43 I guess Im not importan (2/2)

My dad was right after all. The hunters really do have people looking all over the world.

Ugh...I'm so screwed. I seriously wish they don't realize they're looking for me. If they do I hope they haven't tracked me back to my family yet.

”Yeah don't worry Yuri, I know that it's you.”

I don't normally swear but...shit.

Cold sweat started running down my back and I tensed up.

It's not like I'm scared of getting hurt, that's already happened to me too many times to count.

But bringing my family into this is unacceptable.

I never expected to run into them here so I didn't bring any weapons. My tracker was also jammed before I left. This is the worst situation possible.

I quickly scanned the room for possible escape routes or weapons. No windows, one door, and no weapons apart from the two empty guns on the ground.

I seriously regret not keeping those guns.

”You are seriously good at staying low-key huh, even the government didn't have much information on you. You weren't easy to find but I luckily coincidently ran into that day. Hey hey, relax a bit I won't turn you in. You're useful to me after all.” He chuckled before leaning back and propping his arms up.

Confusion surfaced on my face and I didn't even try to hide it.

”Look, here's the thing. There's this group called House of Beginnings, you know them as hunters, who are all currently trying to find a way to bring down your dear grandpa from his throne over all of North America and take over. Each continent apart from Antarctica has a leader, Asia, Africa, South America, Europe, and Australia all have one like your grandpa. However, they're all in a treaty and they won't take action directly against each other until a World War happens or something like that. I don't really know the specifics since I'm not that highly ranked. But basically, finding you and your siblings are only one side plan and it's not even prioritized so it's no problem if I don't turn you in since they don't have high expectations in the rumor actually being true. Sorry to say, you're not that important.”

.....This is a larger scale then I thought.

It does hurt when someone tells you that you're not important right at your face though.

”HOWEVER, if they really do manage to get their hands on you then the entire world balance would change once they take over North America since it is one of the strongest continents. I don't really want this to happen so I'm betraying my superiors. Nobody but me knows who you are, not even the 3 kings who work under me. As for how I found out, you could just say that I'm super lucky to have run into you and recognize you, okay?”

Okay. I don't really care how he found out about me as long as he keeps quiet.

”So! Since I'm risking my skin to save you and your family, you owe me big time! I can tell that you aren't a normal high school girl. Just your fighting prowess alone is enough to beat up a king, and you're not even close to reaching your full potential. As for your brains, I don't doubt their capability seeing how you're the daughter of one of the smartest women in the world. I bet your IQ is crazy high.”

Er.....I think he might be overestimating me here. I admit I'm good at fighting, but that doesn't mean I'm smart...

”Therefore!”

Oh, he's still not done.

”In fact, I fancy you quite a lot. I'm only 22 after all, it's uncommon to find women around my age who have such high potential. It would be nice if you willing agreed to be mine but judging by your personality there's no way that's gonna work out. I don't like forcing people.” He said with a wink.

”.....You're only 22?”

Wow.....he's only one year older than Kai.

How is he around my age? I'm only 17, there's a 5-year gap.

”....Why is that the part you focus on.....? Whatever just pretend you didn't hear anything then. Knowing that I feel romantic interest towards you doesn't look like it would change anything.” He muttered while exasperatedly shaking his head.

I shrugged. I got used to these types of conversations a long time ago. He's probably just interested in how I'm different than the average person.

”Yuri, you're gonna work for me! And you're not allowed to decline or else I'm gonna rat you and your family out!” He finally enthusiastically declared with a wide smile on his annoyingly handsome face.

I mentally sighed and wondered what I should do next. I did sort of expect him to say something like that.

Obviously, I can't refuse him. I'm basically under his control now....I really do hate this sort of feeling.

”Don't worry you won't be bullied. You're gonna be the Queen of the Chessboard!”

”Queen? Seriously?” I unconsciously blurted out.

Isn't a Queen really high ranked in chess?
