Where is the peace (16)

Klein looked at Miran while the math teacher were writing on the black board. Miran were taking a nap with his head on the table facing the window, having a good nap with the soothing voice of that math teacher.

Klein wondered why Miran seemed to always become sleepy no matter where they are. He was not able to check since he only managed to barely able to attend the class during the day.

Though after he bring back Miran to school, that three days that he have to go handle some matter, it seemed that something might happen during that three days. He wanted to ask Ran, but he did not manage to see Ran during the day.

It seemed to him that Ran did not always follow Miran, so he probably just staying at the dorm or the surrounding area. Nevertheless the other things are as usual, they went to eat lunch together and so on.

After school, Klein returned to the dorm first, while Miran stayed at school for club activity. It seemed that Miran joined the book reading club just recently, so he went to the library after school ended.

As soon as Klein enter the room, Ran who was hiding below the pillow came out with a teary eyes. He saw some hope when Klein came back, which make Klein feel taken aback.

"What happened during the short 3 days time I was gone?" Klein put down his bag and sat opposite of Ran.

Ran looked down while playing with his hand for a bit. Hesitating, but he still spoke of it, "Miran, yesterday night during the full moon, don't know where he go to... But he smelled like blood when he return..."

"...smells like blood?" Klein frowned, and thought about it. Indeed today he did smelled it faintly when he sat very close to Miran, but he thought that it's just something small like a small injuries and so on.

But this is different if it was on Miran after he came back during the night time. Something is amiss, but luckily Miran just started to go out yesterday night, so whatever it was it can probably be solved.

Tonight Klein guess that Miran will not be going out, but as he now able to return to the dorm, he should be able to follow Miran when he went out again.

After all, he have the blood of the king, he needed to make sure that even a distant descendant is not causing trouble.

Night time,

The two of the were sleeping quietly on their own bed, and Ran as usual sleep by the side of Miran pillow, he woke up when Miran opens his eyes. Ran stayed still and watches Miran get off bed, his eyes seems red and his face is blank.

He stood up and went to Klein bed, something is attracting Miran attention toward Klein, though he did not do anything other than just staring at Klein sleeping for more then an hour.

"I wonder.." he muttered after a long time of staring, he walked back to his own bed and sat facing Klein. He looked at his hands again, he frowned as he then turned to see a scared Ran. "It's ok, I did promise before right?" He reached for Ran, patted his head, and then he lay back on the bed.

Closing his eyes, he fall into the dreamland soon after.

The sleeping Klein sat up and rubbed his arm, he definitely feels some eerie feeling that gives him shivers down his spine when Miran was staring at him.

It was a week later, when Klein finally got to follow Miran. He followed him quietly, but saw that Miran just walking around, not doing anything much as he stroll around the night market.

Klein brought Ran too, though Ran didn't want to follow, he still tucked him into his pocket.

Just as they were following, they heard a ruckus just infront, it was the typical one where the guys harassing the girls. Klein can see that Miran turned to watch it, his expression is blank as he stare at those guys.

Then he saw Miran walk toward them and simply stand behind them, he did not so anything, but the few seconds after Miran walk away, the harassing man collapsed on the ground.

"?!" Startled, Klein ran after Miran, he take a hold of Miran hand and brought him back to an empty place, "did you kill them?" Klein asked with a serious face.

"Why? What will you do about this?" Miran looked at Klein calmly and watched as Klein expression turned ugly.

"..." Klein stayed quiet, "you gave me no other choices." He with a frown, he took out handcuff and cuffed Miran. Soldier came out after and brought Miran away.

Ran floated and fly to Miran as he could only follow Miran to the dungeon. Ran looked at Klein and looked down as he saw that notification from the system.

Shaking his head, he could only let it be, and follow till the end, staying in the dark and grim dungeon makes him feel rather depressed and Ran just stayed still.

"Ran, I'm sorry." Miran patted his head, he looked down at his hand and muttered, "I'm not fit for this."

As soon as he mutter that, everything becomes dark and nothing can be seen just like before he woke up.

Meanwhile at the dungeon, when Klein came to check in Miran, he found that Miran were on the cold bed. Despite calling for his name a few times, there was no response from him.

Klein went in to check, and he could only ordered the guards to bring Miran away. He failed, the mission that her was entrusted by the king was unable to be completed.

---

In the black space, seeing nothing, he just stayed there, with no feeling. He wondered if he should have just be here, as he thought how he actually ruined the original body wish, he did not even manage to fulfill his wish.

[Host, you have another chance to go back there. Would host want to restart?]

"..." He did not reply, and the system also did not usher him. Who knows how long it was, until he finally reply a simple, "Yes".

[Alright. Begin the restart] The surrounding become lighter and he once again opens his eyes.

"..."
