A hero
She waited for another half hour before leaving the cemetery. It was already twilight , and in this small town there were no buses available to the city at this time.
She couldn't seek help and she couldn't be seen anywhere else .
The Kim clan would certainly finish her off if someone saw her in this place .
.
Sitting here like a total stranger made her question everything that led her into this place .
The night was cold and people's steps in the streets started to fade.
She paid attention to that because this was reminding her of the first time Isa tried to run away from her house, young, vulnerable and weak ...
The person who helped her back then was ..
Yeah, she remembered reading that chapter .
It was ..
"Isa….."
The moment Luna heard Kris's voice she felt really scared, he was the one who suggested her exile and he already told her to leave today once and facing him randomly like that was more than she could ever imagine .
His tall body was blocking her from seeing what's behind him, his eyes were so cold and out of emotions .
He just didn't care about her as a person, but he used to be Isa's savior back in the days .
She said with a quiet tone : "I wanted to leave as you wanted me to, but there were no buses left "
"So you are planning on freezing here instead until the members find you !"
Luna lowered her head and focused her sight on the ground saying :"There is nowhere to go here, even my home, I just don't want to meet Sira right now .
"It was your fault that this happened ! " He yelled at her .
"And I would do it again if I had to" He added.
Kris sat next to her on the park bench and said : "Being here isn't random, you came here on purpose, this park …"
She interrupted him saying : "Yeah ! I think my feet led me here after all" .
He exhaled heavily then said : "Follow me !"
"Where !"
He didn't answer her, but she followed him anyway.
She didn't have another alternative way to survive the day and besides that, she trusted him with her life deep down ..
He saved her already in the past, he gave her life back then …
In the original story Kris had a completely conflicted relationship with Isa, this day he would save her life and the other day he would put her in hell with his actions..
Isa never understood him. He was a person like that from the beginning. When he took part in exiling Isa, she wasn't very surprised.
She kind of expected that.
'Now ..Here he is …With me…'
'Why ?'
'Why?'
So many questions yet no answers in return …
His house was still the same, nothing changed, except there was a garden with a lot of flowers now but that doesn't change the fact that his house was the scariest in the town ..
'Why !'
A black old house that gave an impression of being hunted, no single sign of life that came of it except for this new garden …
She never entered his house before but she knew that Isa made fun of it with Joseph and Rose back in the days .
In her 10 times of living in this body ,she had never been here .
Luna was really scared so she just stood still in front of the main door. Kris noticed her hesitation so he just grabbed her hand and moved forward .
In the living room Luna sat on the couch very shy of the situation but he went to the kitchen and started cooking food …
The smell was so good and they were both alone in this house, there was no point in her staying there, so she followed him to the kitchen and stood close to him and said : "Who taught you how to cook Kris? "
"Living alone requires such skill to survive" .
Luna said when she felt him welcoming a conversation between them :"Thanks for inviting me here, I promise I will not bother you anyway ".
He was moving in the kitchen, multitasking between cooking and organizing everything around him, then replied : "Living here might be difficult but our clan is taking it to the next level ".
"What do you mean !"
He looked at her and then said : "Recently there have been a lot of organizations interested in our clan's powers ".
"What do you mean by that !"
"We are getting paid now for doing something we have been doing for free in centuries" .
"What ! "
That was shocking to luna.
'This ..'
'This is different..'
'What's happening with the story ?'
'All this change ! '
'First with Liam living next to me .Then my friend's death. Then my clan is being paid…
Something major changed. And I can't put a finger on it …'
"And master Luther agreed to that ?" She continued .
"What do you think , Isa ! He is an old man who fought demons his whole life for free and now he has the chance to use his power and get money out of it …of course he will be more than happy to do that" .
"You are talking sarcastically !"
"Yeah I am , doing that is going to cost our clan a lot !"
Luna couldn't understand the bad side of the story, it was the first time she was witnessing such a thing .
Then Kris said : "A lot of the members are fighting high ranked demons now and we are losing a lot of us because of such a thing .Higher ranked demons leave a huge amount of mana ...there are organisations that pay us for it" .
"That's indeed a bad thing Kris".
"I don't know why am I saying this to you ….but if they see you on the streets they will drag you to the master just for some extra money .."
Luna was clueless about his emotions right now but she certainly felt something for him, she said : "You are helping me Kriss
? "
He didn't answer so she continued :"Kris, you were always a hero …to me" .
"A hero you say ! "
