The Book of Hope [2]

Here I was in a position where he could easily kill me if he wanted to, however for some reason he didn't do that. Instead, he stepped beside me and patted me on the shoulder. 

"See? I am giving you the book just because I am a good teacher. Or else I could've done many things if I wanted," he said. "So take this and get out of here."

Saying that he moved past me and left out of the door. There I was left, standing there completely and utterly stunned. 

'Why didn't you step in?'

[I sensed no murderous intent from him.]

'Yeah... I know. Neither did I.'

That's what I was most stunned about. All the time he was in the room his presence was completely zero. If I wasn't seeing him I had no way of telling that he was even here. 

"Fucking hell…" I murmured and let out a breath of relief.
