Chapter 73 Making our way to the arena (2/2)
Unable to speak loudly is she didn't want the crowd to hear her reasoning, her silent voice forced me to lean towards her. As a man, I couldn't help but catch a sniff of her hair while doing so!

This is the first time when something she said manages to flare me up! Is this what it means to care for someone else? If that's not the case, how her feeling guilty about something like this could spark the flames of my wrath?
”It was my choice to stick with you after our encounter in the forest. It was my choice to disregard this little shit while at that. Now its also my own choice to trash him up for both your and my own sake. While I won't deny that your dubious relationship with him took a part in breeding our conflict, it's his own personality that forced this duel onto him! Instead of blaming yourself, either blame him or praise me for finally standing up to such devious behaviour!”
I simply can't help it. While for you it might not be much, receiving care and warmth from someone else, don't forget that I'm intruder to this world. Maybe its caused by the influence of my previous self whose body I took over, but I'm simply starved for feelings! While there was no great romance or tragic story behind my relationship with Eve, this is not a fucking movie or Kurean drama! In real life, whats matters are the small daily details, that build upon themselves!
”Now, straighten up, push this lovely chest forward with pride and look confident! The happier and more confident you look, the better reaction we will have from Baxhar!”
As I say those words, I pat her back lightly as if to help her to straighten her back.
”What a shameless guy... ”
”Not only does he threaten her, he even forces her to fake her attitude like that…”
”Truly, a wolf in the skin of sheep!”
At this moment, with nothing else taking my attention I hear whispers to my side. In that instant, my mood sours while I understand where the hostile looks on me came from! It seems that this little shit played some of his cards even before the duel started!
He is one hundred years too young to think that he can face me off in terms of bullying! While earth might be civilised, we have a great history of bullying each other! Starting from ancient and middle ages of Eurobean dramas, through the real history of politic marriages, ages of colonisation and enslaving other races, ending at the school bullying ordeal that I went through! If he thinks he has any chance in shady games against me, I will teach him a lesson soon!
