CHAPTER 21

　　Palm's Point Of View

　　I'm still worried about Zenith but I can go to her later because I need to talk to the queen first about what happened. I know Vior won't leave her so somehow I feel comfortable.

　　I waited for the elevator to open.

　　"Oh, Palm? What happened and why did you come?" I heard Queen Genesis question in my mind when the elevator opened.

　　She has the power to communicate with only the mind and she is also one of the most admired warriors of their generation. I walked over to her desk and paid my respects.

　　"Queen Genesis… something bad happened to Zenith," I replied.

　　Maybe she already knew that but if I said and inform her personally was better.

　　"Don't worry, I know even without the help of Reme's power she will spontaneously recover from what she gained from Vior's entire attack," the queen said complacently.

　　"What do you mean by that?" I asked because I didn't seem to know anything about Zenith's person and the queen knew something there.

　　"Simple, Palm. It's not in Zenith's vocabulary to be weak just based on what happened, she may feel the pain but sooner or later it will go away and she will get stronger. Maybe you already have a suspicion of her power, right? "

　　The events I have witnessed since I met Zenith come back to my memory. The queen had a point there but it was not right that she still had to feel severe pain before becoming stronger.

　　"Don't even think about it, Palm, because you will soon know her true power. Of all of us here know that you are the closest to her so all we can do is wait," she said to grab my attention.

　　"Queen Genesis? Won't the incident be with Zenith? She's been taking all the bullets that were supposed to be targeted to someone else. She's a good child and she's like a child to me," I insisted.

　　I also feel guilt because I brought her here and then I know that what she went through was difficult where she came from but she's also just having a harder time here.

　　"That's part of her growth power, Palm. We just need to keep an eye on her so she doesn't get lost. Don't you notice? She's changing… She saved. She saved her former opponent from death and that is a progress," she said with a smile no more farther explanation.

　　The wind just blew me away, "I just really don't want all her sacrifices to be wasted in the end."

　　I saw the queen nod and then approach me. She held my hand.

　　"Whatever happens, Palm. It's her destiny… I've been waiting for her for a long time because someone told me that she's the last of the darkness that envelops the world. It's just sad that even I can't stop the sowing of the evil of darkness, if we may be allowed to live with our families for a long time. Only Zenith was funny then, stamped with her name being different from everyone else. From the moment she was born she had a destiny to fulfil and destined in the Legend's Prophecy, to be the Supreme of their families and save humankind."

　　Vior's Point Of View

　　Until this day I am still here at Zenith’s house and quietly watching her eat. I prepared five dishes so that she could really regain her strength, I was also happy to see that she would soon finish all of them. She's an eating monster, for a woman she has too much energy to eat but her body maintains being thin.

　　"Why are you still, huh?" she suddenly asked, it's a good thing she wasn't looking.

　　"I just want to make sure you're okay and you can eat well, Ms. Palm instructed me to watch over you and I won't leave here until she's back," I answered truthfully.

　　She was on the last plate and her mouth was still full. "Genin bo? Walkongmigegwo koit yawk,"

　　At least one I did not understand what she said because she just kept eating. She'll choke is she continued talking.

　　"Tsk! Get organized, I can't understand you, eat what you're eating before you speak, maybe later you'll be blown away," I reprimanded a little annoyed, her cheek was even swollen because of the food and then she mumbled.

　　She doesn't even know the saying of that, don't talk if your mouth is full.

　　She ignored me then and ate all the food. After that, she leaned back in her chair and stroked her stomach. Does she even know that I'm a man? Then why would she do that in front of me, more than a woman.

　　I wonder what I saw here and why I was so mad at this woman. She's way too different from the others.

　　She got up and went to her room. Hayst, what else can I expect? For sure, she was not proficient in housework because of the number of slaves who used to work for them. I also got up and put away all the food he had eaten and then washed it.

　　If she has a family…

　　I'm sure her husband will be a slave or under her. Psh! What a nightmare.

　　It's like I'm referring to myself.

　　After I put away all her clutter, I went out of her room and knocked on the door.

　　"Zenith… are you sure you're okay? Aren't you feeling anything? I can call Reme to come back here and check you up," I said worriedly.

　　I can't enter without her permission because it's her house and she also needs privacy. I just really remember her condition, it's my fault why she can't train anymore. I'm a jerk for hurting her like that, I couldn't even control myself and noticed that she was the one who would be hit by my attack.

　　I was surprised when the door suddenly opened and saw Zenith in front of me.

　　"Isn't Four Eyes here yet?" she asked, she was very close to me.

　　The f ***

　　"Ahmm, what. I-I'm sure she's on her way. Ms. Palm is back, she just went to Queen Genesis to talk," I swallowed, didn't she count?

　　I'm nervous, I can see her beautiful face up close that even without an expression it's still very clear to look at, then her eyes .. it's just so mesmerizing color gray. Her red lips with pallor didn't escape my eyes, damn. Is she a vampire? Or am I the one with the vampire race?!

　　Vior, control yourself and get back to your senses. This is not how you should think.

　　"Tsk, assh*le. Why are you just standing there and seem to have seen a ghost? Are you a statue or what?" I realized her voice, she was just looking at my face and seemed to be waiting.

　　"H-Huh?" I'm confused.

　　"Psh. Don't you want to be in my room? Let's wait for Four Eyes in the living room, I want you gone here in my place, it's like you don't know," she said.

　　What?

　　Is she inviting me to go inside of her room ?!

　　God. I really hate this feeling.
