Kapitel 10: I am not a gentleman
Remember the pink girl from last time? Yes, her. The weirdo that interrupted Nii-Sama's speech. She starts to pop up anywhere I was.
The day after the opening ceremony she dropped from the tree just right in the place I would have been if I wasn't fast enough to dodge. Luckily my instincts about dangerous things aren't dulled. Can you imagine if it does and she dropped on me? It would be hurt like hell. I'm not afraid of being hurt but if I'm hurt then my time with Kii will be short. She would have wanted me to rest or something. It was lucky really. I don't know what happened to that girl after that. She must be hurt, fallen like that. Not that I'm worried, mind you. I have more important things to do so I hadn't had time to help her. What? You think I'm cruel for just leaving her like that? I don't care. Kii was waiting, I don't want to make her wait by helping some random girl that decided to climb the tree. It was her own fault climbing those trees anyway. If she didn't want to fall she shouldn't have climbed it.
"There was a girl that fallen from the tree on my way here," I told Kii
"Was she okay?" Kii asked me
"Don't know. I left her" I said
Kii looked at me incredulously before she sighed.
"Oh, Ace-kun! How could you? Let's go back and help her."
"Nope"
"Nope?"
I shrugged. Pulled her closer. "We don't have much time before Aoi come here to get you. And I haven't get my good morning kiss yet."
"you think a good morning kiss is more important than helping people?" she questioned.
"Yup. It's your good morning kiss after all" I told her as I leaned closer
"My good morning kiss?" she asked again, also step closer to me.
"Uh-huh," I said before I kissed her. It's sweet. It's perfect to start the day.
I already have forgotten about that girl by the time Aoi ruined our moment.
Then after that, she also stumbled upon me again as I came out of my sword training. Again I dodged her and she tumbled down on the floor behind me. I gave her a glance and left. I don't want to stay in the same place with a person who was that clumsy. It would be troublesome. I have some other important things to do, some places to be, someone to see. Yeah, yeah, I shouldn't be like that, I should help her like a gentleman. It's maybe bad for a prince to act ungentlemanly but I'm a pirate, not a prince so it was okay. Right?
After that again in the cafeteria, in my way to the garden to meet Kii, in the hall before I went to class. Yeah, I dodged and left her each time. But don't you think it was too often to be a coincidence?
Once, Kii told me that a stranger came to her and told her that whatever she had done she wouldn't win against the heroine. She might have changed many things but at the end of the game, the heroine will always be the winner. She asked me if I know what is this heroine supposed to be. Well, I'm familiar with the word hero but I'm not sure what the hell is heroine supposed to be. A female version of the hero? Nah...
"Kii, haven't Aoi teach you not to talk to strangers?" I told her instead.
"I didn't talk. She didn't give me chance to. She left after warning me that she accepted the challenge"
"what challenge?"
"I have no idea. Never meet her before. I also have no reason to challenge her. Maybe she has a wrong person?"
"Nah, whatever. If you meet her again, avoid her. Don't talk to her, she might kidnap you. It's dangerous. Okay?"
"kidnapping seems to..."
"Nope, nope, nope, I don't want to take a risk. She already said something means to you even though you don't know her. And I'm pretty sure she doesn't know you too. Kii, I have this heavy feeling in my heart that screams danger when you told me that. I love you very much. I'll try my best to protect you but how can I protect you if I don't know who the enemies are?"
"Aren't you a bit exaggerating, Ace-kun? She might not have ill intent. She only talks about..."
"she gives you a warning, Kii. And a challenge. It is the same as declaring war to you"
"War?! But..."
"Kii..." I cut her. I hold her face in my hands.
"since you told me about that warning, I can't shake this dreadful feeling in my heart." I put her hand on my chest "can you feel it? My heart has been beating this fast. I'm worried, Kii. I don't know why I'm this worry yet. But please, for the sake of my peace. If you meet this person again, avoid her as best as you can. Okay?"
"Okay," she said softly as she hugged me.
My instincts told me that it was the same girl. Now I just need to find out what the hell is a heroine?
I start to get annoyed by her popping up on my way. What the hell is her problem? If she needs something from me she should just tell without the need to stumble upon me every time. She should just talk, like other normal people. After successfully having a week without her stumbling over me, I feel relieved. That is before she shows up with Nii-Sama and Akai.
I'm having a date with Kii right now. It is our long awaited date. I even got permission from Aoi to take her out today. I'm really looking forward to this date. I'm sure Kii has the same feeling. We're walking around the garden and talking about things we find interesting. I was just finished talking about 'my (the boy) 100 days challenging Oyaji' when I heard a clacking sound approach us. I immediately lifting Kii on my arms and step aside. It was the right choice because as soon as I do that, that pinky person comes to stumble (again, is it her hobby?) on us. This time she doesn't fall because Akai who was a fast runner able to catch up to her and steady her in time. Nii-Sama comes after him.
"Are you okay, Miss?" He asked.
"Ah yes, I'm fine. Thank you for worrying, Your Highness. Thank you for helping me, Wallace-sama" she told them both. Then she looks up at me with a blush. The hell?
I put Kii back on her foot, shielding her with my body. Ignored the girl I turn to my (two?) brother/s.
"so, why you are here?" I ask them.
"it's hard to get Aoi permission, you know?" I continue when My Nii-Sama is only lifting his eyebrow as an answer.
"Allow me to apologize, your highness.." Akai starts but getting cut but the girl that I ignore.
"it wasn't their fault. I was only want to apologize to His highness Arzen-sama but I was so clumsy that I once again being a bother to his highness" she said pitifully.
I'm not impressed. If she knows she is being a bother, wouldn't she stop those meaninglessness act by now?
"Whatever," I said pulling Kii away from them.
I hear my brother sigh as I lead Kii out of there. My mood is deemed, I need my alone time with Kii, dammit! Why does she keep popping up around us anyway?
I thought it would be the last time she has contact with us. I'm wrong. She really is a bother, especially to Kii, and strangely to Midori and a lady from our neighboring country, who come as an exchange student here, as well.
She seems to keep tripping herself here and there. She makes a racket everywhere. I heard that she also makes the relation between the son of Zoland house and Prince Rhuifen tense. Really? Is she a walking disaster or something?
I wouldn't have cared about that if she doesn't bother Kii. She even has the nerve to say that Kii is bullying her. Honestly? She said my sweet is Kii bullying her? Not even if the hell is frozen I will believe that. Kii would not do an unnecessary thing like that. I'm biased for thinking like that? Yes, I'm. I'm too blinded by my love for her for saying that? Yes, I'm. So what? Got a problem with that? You know, even if Kii really is bullying her (impossible as it may) I think I would have helped her rather than reprimand her. Just because that girl annoys me.
She is the kind of girl that I'll never want to be with. She is weak and depends on people too much. She needs help for every single thing. Even if it was easy to do by oneself. What I hate most is the way she keeps trying to talk to me. Or the way she always blushes in front of me without reason. Or the way that she keeps implying towards me that Kii is a bully. Leave my girl alone, you!
I'm glad to share that now Aoi has someone he hates more than me. He didn't show it as he does to me. Or even tell that he hates her. But I can see through him. I confidently say that Aoi detests that pink girl. Whahahaha!!! At least I'm not alone.
She was just an annoying bug in my life. Never think that she was important enough to be noticed. Until that day when everything I know become so wrong.
We were having a test for all new students and because that girl was a transfer student she was also included in the test.
Kii's core magic is dark magic and Ice magic same as Aoi but hers is lean more into darkness while Aoi's more into Ice magic. It used to scare me, her magic, it reminded me of Teach's Yami Yami no Mi fruit. Kii knows that I was wary of her magic so she worked hard to control it better. She is good now and I'm also good with the darkness. It helps us to hide when it was necessary after all, and it's good for mastering stealth magic. The most important thing is that her magic will instinctively defend her when its sense that she is in danger. It might cause a backlash against her attacker as we (Aoi, Nii-Sama and I) learned it in the past.
I was suspicious when that girl chooses to train near Kii before the test begins, but I never thought that something like that would happen. That clumsy girl accidentally or it might have been purposely, trips and sent her spell to fly every direction. Some hit Kii. Kii's magic automatically burst into defense but the spell was already hit Kii, I saw her fall down in slow motion. I tried to get to her as fast as I can, but as soon as I got hold of her, that girl's spell, Kii's magic, and my own defense clash out. Images after images appearing in my head, it was overwhelming me, I pulled Kii closer to me. I was too scared to let her go, I felt as if she would disappear if I do. Then I feel only darkness.
