STB System In Strike The Blood Chapter 104

Yuuma returned back to the bed and lightly brushed the hair of Kojou as he was pretending to be sleeping before a tear rolls down her eye . . .

Yuuma : I . . . I . . . didn't do it just because of being childhood friends . . .

Falling on the bed while trying to hold her tears back was wrecking Kojou from the inside . . .

He knew that what she told them was half-lies half-truth . . .

Kojou always felt something was off about Yuuma especially when he realised she had a guardian . . .

It had clicked him that Yuuma belonged to the supernatural or more like she was dragged into it .

It was the same as him as he became unwillingly the 4th and was forced to kill her . . .

From this alone, he knew that someone is ordering her around and that when they save the targeted person which seems to be someone close to her, probably her sister or her mother . . .

She will stop having her freedom . . .

And she with him right now is the only happiness she will have before she is forced to do something . . .

He is not a person who abandons his friends and family, therefore, he will do anything to save her . . .

Even killing himself with a smile on his face, either way, he won't die . . .

Kojou after making his decision he cuddle up closer to her and hugged her from behind her trying to give her, his silent support . . .

Feeling him cuddling up on her back more tears started dripping down from her face as small sobs were heard . . .

They stayed like that for a few hours before finally, both fell asleep . . .

The next day pa.s.sed like the others and so on until a week later reports were made in the news that someone broke inside the island and is very dangerous . . .

Kojou : Now who is crazy enough to break inside the Ittogami island security . . .

Yuuma : Who knows but I'm guessing they will catch him soon enough . . .

Kojou : Hope so . . .

Both of them walked like normally as if nothing happened a week ago . . .

Kojou during these days, he had asked the opinion of Avrora about how he should go about it . . .

Avrora was stunned that these two managed to get together and the same time she had a frown on her face . . .

She knew Yuuma will succeed in taking her mother back only to be betrayed by her . . .

However to do that they need to destroy the key that acts as a gate as well meaning they need to kill Natsuki . . .

He told him at that time what he will do if she follows the person trapped . . .

Kojou : I will make her stay . . .

Avrora : Even if that harms her or us?? Or even Natsuki . . . ??

Kojou : That's why I'm trying to find a way around this . . .

Avrora : With everything that has been going on i believe you will find the way at the last moment . . .

Avrora : Usually those things come naturally . . .

Returning back to his thoughts they continued their Academy hours and soon night arrived, Yuuma said goodbye to Kojou as she would be staying at a friends place for tonight . . .

Thinking that now he can't do s.h.i.+t, he said his goodnight with a kiss on her lips and left as well . . .

On the way back home he started feeling a weird feeling as if someone was watching him . . .

He started using misdirections through alleys and shops in order to make himself vanish while he was using his senses to find out who is tailing . . .

After a few minutes of playing hide and seek Kojou managed to one-up the shadow tailing him only for him to see . . .

A fairly tall man . He has dark blue eyes with a blonde, short-cropped military-style haircut .

He has a metal monocle buried in his left eye socket like an eyepatch . He wore an armoured augmentation suit used by heavy infantry in the military, covered with a cloak .

Behind him was a little girl looking blankly at him . . .
