YM778.TV Chapter 171 170. Max.
(AN: Not edited.)
\'Help!\' She screamed, inwardly and tightly closed her eyes, nothing cruised in her mind in that situation, she could have used mana to escape, but even a thought about it didn\'t come to her mind. The woman who stood behind her just noticed her distress and....
"What\'re you doing?" A irritated voice sounded in front of Faye which gave her hope.
She slowly opened her eyes and saw black loafers, she gaze slowly moved up to black trousers, black shirt with top three buttons unbuttoned and finally to the black haired and black eyed handsome face.
"Huh? Who are you?" Alvin asked and Faye shivered at his voice.
"See, I\'m quite irritated right now and I don\'t want to kill anybody on an impulse, so please kindly back off." The black haired man said and massaged his temples with his black gloved right hand while his black gloved left hand was on his waist.
"...." The entire bar turned silent, since the music was turned down at the black haired man\'s words.
".... hahahaha!!" Alvin took his hands off of Faye and laughed as if it was best joke he had ever heard.
"Haa..." A sigh of relief escaped Faye\'s mouth and her gaze moved to Alvin as her mind started to work straight and she swore to make him pay tenfold for the humiliation she just suffered.
"It\'s good that you understood, not many understand my words if I speak kindly." The man smiled slightly.
Alvin stood up, glared at the man and punched at the black haired man with full force.
BAM
"Ukh." The punch to the man\'s face caused him to groan and spin. Faye stared at him with wide eyes, he stumbled before standing straight with his head down, he brought his gloved hand close to his face and looked down at it, the gloved index finger had a smudge of blood on it.
"Don\'t blame me now. Cause you chose this." He mumbled, snapped his head towards Alvin, glared at him and disappeared.
Faye who was about to rush towards the man suddenly felt a breeze past next to her, she snapped her head towards it and saw the black-haired man grip Alvin\'s face with his gloved right hand.
\'Fast!\' Faye thought.
BAM
"Argh!?" Alvin\'s groaned in muffled voice as the man\'s hand was still on his face, even after slamming the back of Alvin\'s head to the wall next to Faye.
"You made me do this." The man said with a nonchalant look on his face and...
BAM (4x)
"...." The entire bar felt chills down their spines as they stared at Alvin\'s face that was getting plumed by a handsome black haired man. The man was punching at Alvin\'s face without mercy and when Alvin\'s face was disfigured....
"Stop!" A sweet woman\'s voice sounded next to the man who simply raised his head and glanced at the voice, Faye who spoke up looked at him in the eye, bravely, but her legs were shivering slightly.
"...." The man raised his gloved hands in air and backed off as Alvin\'s blood trickled down from his right fist.
The black haired man\'s lower lip had a single cut and his face had five droplets of splattered blood while Alvin\'s disfigured face was bleeding profusely, Faye didn\'t even glance at Alvin, she simply stood up and slightly bowed towards the man and....
"Thank you." She thanked him.
"Ah, don\'t worry, Miss." The man smiled brightly, but the blood on his handsome face made it look ominous.
"Now then." The man glanced down at Alvin who had slumped down on the ground and crouched down, took out a healing potion from his inventory and fed it to him.
"No hard feelings and thanks. Thanks to you, I\'m quite less irritated now." The man said and started to walk out of the bar.
After he was out of the bar.
"That man, I think he just punched him to relieve his irritation...." The woman behind Faye commented and everybody in the bar agreed with her.
"Excuse me." Faye suddenly dashed out of the bar with a small smile on her face.
TAK-TAK (5x)
"Excuse me! Excuse me wait!!" Faye dashed towards the black haired man who seemed to be smoking as he walked down the street.
PUFF
"Yes?" He turned and looked at Faye over his shoulder while smoking his cigar.
\'He\'s hot.\' She thought.
"Thank you. Thank you for saving me back there, I was too scared to think of anything." Faye shuddered as she remembered what had happened back there.
"I\'m Faye Clayton." She introduced herself and offered her right hand for a handshake.
PUFF
"Max." Max said and shook her hand with his gloved left hand while the he held his cigar in his right.
"?" She subconsciously tilted her head to her right, perplexed by the weird handshake.
"Blood." He showed his gloved right hand which had turned bloody.
"Ah, I understand, sorry." Faye blushed slightly.
"It\'s okay and you\'re welcome, then." Max said and turned around to walk away.
\'Eh? I haven\'t properly thanked him yet!! How should I stop!?\' She thought, inwardly.
"Um, umm, Sir Max!" She suddenly called out in a loud voice.
"Hm?" He turned to face her with his brows furrowed at her.
PUFF
\'N-Now wh-what? What should I say? Uwaaa!!\' Faye cried, inwardly.
PUFF
"Um, can we have a dinner together? Tomorrow?" She asked and instantly blushed.
\'What have I done??\'
"....." Max looked at her with a weird expression on his face.
"Thank you? I wanted to say thank you properly." She came up a half-a*sed excuse.
\'It is not a excuse!! It\'s not! I j-ju-just want to thank him properly!\' She reasoned with herself.
PUFF
"..... very well." He agreed with a slightly reluctant look on his face.
*
"If I\'m not over stepping my boundaries, can I ask who was the woman you were with?" Faye who was walking next to Max suddenly asked.
"You are, but since it\'s not anything important I can answer that, she was someone whom I had some business with." Max answered.
PUFF
\'Uwaaaa!! I don\'t know what to speak! He said I\'m over stepping my boundaries and even gave a very \'vague\' answer!!\' She cried inwardly, but she didn\'t know what else to talk! Since she was the who offered to walk with him, she wanted to strike a conversation and was troubled with it because she has never dated before.
PUFF
"You can simply enjoy the walk, it isn\'t necessary to talk. Walk slowly while watching the night sky, you will arrive at the location you\'re going to before you even realize it." Max advised.
"Mhm." She looked up at beautiful night sky and smiled.
