Hero Of The World 74 Chapter 74: Talk

Still they chatted and ate food while enjoying each others company until they retired to their room, and had a wonderful night.

They hugged each other to the point they almost melded together.

Now Lori lays with her head on his chest and with him combing through her hair. He saw fit, to discuss his feelings for his master.

"Lori I want to talk to you about something." Ned said softly.

She gave a nod and waited for him to start talking.

"I know you said that it is fine if I like another woman, but I feel like I would somehow betray you with that. Now I somehow felt that I have come to like my master." Ned said as he adjusted his position a bit for the talk to be more serious.

"You like Master Eline?" Lori said with a calm voice. She knew from the first time that this was coming, if she didn't convince herself that Ned wouldn't be just hers than she might have just got upset and betrayed right now.

"I won't deny it from you, yes. However, it is bound to never happen. Master would not like me back, I'm sure she doesn't like many things about me and possibly hate me. Or it would be that she is just cold to anyone else. Either ways, you know, since I can see feelings, I can tell that she is just protecting me, nothing less nothing more. The dilemma is how can we go back to how we were before, otherwise things would keep getting awkward. I can count the numbers of times she talked to me recently in one hand. And each time I feel like her stare means I'm a disappointment." Ned talked so much of his feelings that Lori was surprised.

At first she wanted to turn it into a joke subject by saying lots of women like him, and successfully and masterfully introduce Lucy as a potential love interest. Such was the deal the two girls made together. But it appeared that Ned was somehow perplexed and confused about his feelings and his master's lack of words was adding to it.

"Look Ned, I don't know what village you came from, and I would not ask, but you should know that from the beginning of time successful men never had one woman. Otherwise if they did, there will be lots of cheating involved. I'm sure you know that, it is just that it never crossed your mind. Now don't hurt yourself about having feelings for another woman. I'm fine with it and you as a man should be too. As far as your master goes, I'm pretty sure she doesn't hate you, but any romantic feelings from her part you would have to work on." Lori said and gave him a few minutes to process then continued.

"Now for things to stop being awkward, you should do the easiest thing. Confess. Announce your feelings, and that you'll one day make her feel the same. So when the time comes, you would feel like you did it if you succeeded and you would think it was not meant to be if you failed. " Lori said with a smile and after a few seconds to let him think on it, she kissed him pa.s.sionately and broke the kiss panting slightly to mutter in his ears.

"Now I think you should make it up to me." Ned responded with a firm nod.

...

A shadow stalked along the darkness of the night.

It had been in the human kingdom for a some time now, searching and searching for it's targets to no avail.

The only one it found was the human general in that war. She didn't have many guarding her secretly, and he would take her first.

The other girl, was always surrounded by more bodyguards hidden in places nearby.

The shadow was right now outside a castle on a tree waiting for the right time to get the girl. Get not kill.

If it forgone every thing else, the kill would be easy. Matter of fact he would be able to kill her in a minute.

But that would danger the plans they had in the human kingdom, and that would be unforgivable.

Not to mention that the moment he kills her he would alert her father who is probably as strong as he is. Then the humans would in extent be alerted, making his next target hard to a.s.sa.s.sinate.

He couldn't have that. And above all, he wouldn't be able to lure his primary target out. Yes indeed he couldn't have that. That human had to pay.

For the sake of convenience, he had killed a human and impersonated him so that he could stroll the streets easily.

Tomorrow he saw fit to get her. He noticed her patterns, and by his calculations tomorrow she would once again go alone to train in an abandoned place. He would make use of that same place to hold her captive.

She always managed to shake her guards, so he knew no one would know they were there.

Unknown to him, a pair of eyes somewhere in the sky, had locked on to him by sensing the malicious feelings it had.
