Trying not to say anything, I just looked at him investigate the area.
"Your mother became one of them, isn't she?" he asked then threw at me a large piece of nearly-burned wood.
As I looked at it, I noticed some scratches marked on it. I grasped hardly on the wood and clenched my fist.
"It seems like your mother attacked someone."
"W-What? N-No, my mother won't do that." I defended even though deep inside of me, I knew she probably had attacked my sisters.
He just looked straight at me. "How would you know? Are you certain?"
> IX: The Girl Who Forgets About Yesterday < -KakuiPotato *** Hnghh~ "Why is it so bright in the morning? I want to sleep more, my head hurts like hell." she mumbled. Lady Arriane woke up rubbing her eyes and feeling the heaviness of her head. "My Lady?" Rin and Ren said at my face. Why are these people so loud? "Hnn... Lemme sleep peacefully will ya?" I want to go back to sleep. Sleep is just the only thing running around my head. "My Lady, today is Duke Meirmoire's party. You should g
> X: Master! A Lady's Love Story < -KakuiPotato *** After having too much drinks, the crowd went home already. Some were even fetched by their wives and relatives from being drunk so much. "Come on now, my Lady! It's time to go." Rin kept pulling Lady Arriane inside the carriage but she kept resisting. "No, I can still drink!" and she kept on struggling. "You should go home, my Lady. Come back again some other time." Asagi said that made Lady Arriane suddenly act sober. "Y-Yes, of course." then she walked wiggling inside the carriage. "What the hell just happened?!" Rin's jaw dropped to the ground. "Ow!" Lady Arriane bumped her head on the door frame. "My Lady!" "Hmph! Stupid door frame!" Asagi chuckled at Lady Arriane's actions. "Um, thank you for tonight. I'll make sure to have the payment delivered tomorrow. It's my bad for not bringing enough money t
> XI: Busted < -KakuiPotato *** "Oi! Fall on your knees!" Kaifei pulled down Ken'ichi when he stood up and stared at theMasterwho just came in front of them. "It's okay, Kaifei." the Master smiled. I don't understand. I thought... I thought he was dead? H-How come he's... alive? He's the real one, right? H-He's... "Old man..?" Ken'ichi muttered and took a glimpse at the master once again. "Y-You're gramps, right?" Everyone looked at Ken'ichi who ask some dumb question to the Master in front of them all. The Master just smiled. "Yes, I may be the gramps of you al

The Master nodded and smiled."Ahh fvck! Not again." they reacted bitterly immediately.I'm confused. What's going to happen?"But now's mission is different." the Master looked at me. "Young boy-""I-It's okay to call me Ken, Master."I noticed he kept saying 'young boy' this and 'young boy' that a while ago. I'm guessing he didn't know my name.Well, he doesn't even recognize me as his grandson so..."Ken..."What? Does my name finally ring a bell inside your head, old man?"Young Ken, I heard you're having a part-time job somewhere-""Ah! My job!" I stood up suddenly startled.I forgot about that, yik
> XIII: Idiocy Can Be Contagious <-KakuiPotato***"Y-You...!""Are you the one who put me inside that small cabinet, sir?" he asked madly politely.H-He's... He's...But no, I'm not! It was Asagi!"--That's so cruel to do to a person, you know!"I took a step backwards out of fright. "Y-You're alive! You're alive!"He can talk! I mean, he can talk straight!"Of course I am, sir. Why wouldn't I be? By the way, I'm..." from standing up-right, the guy held his chin and tried to think of his name.
> XIV: A New Employee < -KakuiPotato *** Huh? A letter for me? "Then why would you open it?! Geez, so what does it says?" Your order containing 500 cases of Barley Wine has already been departed. The carriage might arrive in your area about 28 to 30 days later. "What's this? It's just the ordered stocks. I hate myself for expecting it could be a love letter. Ah, yes. I forgot nobody likes you." Tokage said then threw the letter to me. Well, take a look at the audacity of this geezer. He just opened my letter without my permission then he has the audacity to complain about his disappointment.
> XV: A Shop Full Of Weirdos <-KakuiPotato***"Where are you going, mister? It's still early in the morning." someone guarding the gate asked as I was about to pass by."Oh, good morning. I'm going to work, gatekeeper-san." I bowed.He looks quite younger than me."Is that so? Okay, then. Please be back here before 1800 in the evening or you won't be able to come inside anymore." he advised."Thank you very much. Then, I'll get going."What am I going to reason to Asagi-san and Tokage-san? That my family got kidnapped and I'm living with some strangers now?
> XVI: Decision Between Them <-KakuiPotato***"My Lady! My Lady!" Ren yelled excitedly as she run towards Lady Arriane's room."Did you deliver the payment safely yesterday, Rin?" Lady Arriane asked as Rin brushes her hair."Yes, my Lady.""Did you give it specifically to him?" she asked curiously."Um... no, my Lady. I spotted a Pointer on my way there so I hid at my best and hurriedly went there. I saw his friend near the shop so I just gave it to him and rushed home. I'm sorry.""Is that so.""My Lady!" the door banged and presented Ren who ju
> XXI: The Foreign Duke of Erione <-KakuiPotato***"You still look beautiful as always, my Lady." Duke Meirmore greeted as we agreed to meet in front of the Capital gate."Hello, Duke." I bowed in front of him. I noticed the shock on his face when I bowed then he shook his head."Oh, please. Come on! We're already friends, remember?" he chuckled as he put his arms on my shoulders."Duke, kindly remove your hands on my shoulders. They're pretty heavy, you see.""Make me." he smirked.*sigh*"Remove your filthy perverted hands on my shoulders right now or else-" he already distanced himself from me before I finished what I was about to say."Tch, no one knows how many girls that hand touched when you were travelling." I shrugged my shoulders and pretended to blow some dirt from it."Now, now. Don't be like that on our second meeting. Don't you miss me? I wasn't here for years, you
XX: Alpha Samurai-KakuiPotato***"That stupid Yūgi is not here again. Shall we decide his punishment right now? What about death? I think that suits him." Rukia-senpai grinned and leaned on the table."If he's not late, he's absent. What's wrong with that man?" Jai said with his head on top of his palm and arms resting on the table."It's wise not to think about useless things, like him." the Alpha Samurai said and sipped his tea.What's his name again? I don't think they mentioned his name a while ago."Let's just dump him off the cliff when he arrives." Kaifei-san also commented.The Master chuckled,
XIX: One Messed Up Meeting-KakuiPotato***Asagi just pulled Tokage outside where Ram is waiting looking closely at the floating thing on the ocean."It's your turn to check what that is.""Check what?" Tokage asked confused.Ram and Asagi just pointed behind him so he looked around and saw something white floating near the shore."Good luck, senpai!""Wait, WHAT?! You fooled me into playing rock-paper-scissors!" he shouted but both Ram and Asagi went inside the shop already locking him outside.He saw Ram on the window signing 'go-and-look-what-that-is
> XVII: Be Entertained <-KakuiPotato***"Oh thank God we're nearly done. I'm so thirsty..." Ken'ichi said whose tongue is already hanging out of thirst carrying a barrel on his shoulders."I feel like I'm really going to die!" Ram complained crawling on the hot ground with a barrel of wine roped around his waist."But you're already dead." Ken'ichi said sarcastically."What did you say, brat?!""You're more of a brat than me!""Didn't you hear what I said? It had'really'on it, you deaf! Learn the difference, idiot!""Huh? I'm
