Chapter 31: In Good Hands
They arrived at Kane’s home using Xander’s car and Eren looked disappointed that Kane was living in an apartment. His place just proved that he really was a thrown-away child of the Vasquez family. How did he even survive living alone after living a pampered life in the Vasquez Manor?“The ingredients are at the back of the car!” Xander cheerfully went to the back of his car and took the ingredients that they bought earlier.“What are we going to eat today?” Erin also seemed excited as she peeked at the bags on Xander’s hand.“Chicken adobo!” Xander squealed in excitement.Eren just watched the two talk in excitement while Kane was quietly walking towards the apartment. They entered the elevator and only the noise of the two was heard in the silent corridor.He didn’t expect Kane’s room to be squeaky clean. Knowing that he was living alone, he was somehow anticipating that his place

Chapter 32: The Research
It had been a few days since he had been hanging out with the two and Kane almost forgot about his nightmares. He had been occupied by the two that he didn’t think about DME. So when Robin and Amir came knocking at his door, he felt surprised but he hid his emotions immediately.“You haven’t forgotten about our deal, right?” Robin said with a smile on his face when he saw Kane open the door for them. The sun had already set and it seemed like they planned to schedule the research during the night so that the schedule wouldn’t conflict with the study.“No. Let’s go.” Kane went inside to get a jacket before he led the way and closed the door to his place. As soon as they were out of the apartment building, Amir opened the car door for Kane and the latter obediently entered.Robin handed him the contract and Kane took his time reading the contract. The two didn’t start the car until Kane finally asked for a pen

Chapter 33: The Research II
“Where was he?” Erin immediately asked as soon as she arrived on the fourth floor where most of the employees’ rooms were located. She received a call from Amir during the night and she was worried that something bad might’ve happened to Kane.She was aware that Kane didn’t want to remember his memories in the dungeons so she wanted to help him avoid recalling those memories. He even quit working for the DME so why would he go in AC out of the blue?“Kane is in the room.” A man who seemed to be a young researcher guided her the way. “We were just asking him about a few things when he suddenly acted like he was in pain and then he collapsed.”“Can I know about the questions you asked him?”The man looked at Amir who was the one who opened the door for them as they entered the room. When Amir nodded, the man sighed and took his phone.“These are the questions that we asked him.&r

Chapter 34: A Friendly Advice
“You’re alone today.” Gustav smiled as he sat beside Kane. He just entered the fast-food diner near the school when he saw Kane alone in the corner. “Where’re the others?”“None of your business,” Kane answered nonchalantly without even looking at him. He was too busy reading his book and he didn’t want to exert his energy on someone so bothersome like Gustav.“You’re too cold, aren’t you?” Gustav chuckled as if he didn’t mind Kane’s indifference. When they were younger, he was already aware of Vasquez’s arrogant genius. He already expected him to be a bit self-centered so he was prepared when he tried to approach him.Wouldn’t it be gratifying to tame someone like him? He didn’t know how Xander and Erin did it, but if he allowed those two to stay by his side, wouldn’t he do the same with him?“If you’re freezing, then just leave.

Chapter 35: Intruder
When the maids called for them and informed them that the dinner was ready, Eren asked the two to go to the dining room first because he would call for their father. He was looking at the wall and admired the different paintings that were hung.Their house signified the history of their family. It showed how many families had been there to protect the northeast and he felt that something was whispering on his ears. It was telling him that it was just nice to be the family’s successor. However, that very same voice would tell him to give up because he would end up working under the shadows of his talented sister.But if the owner of the voice thought that he would only grow jealous, they were wrong. All his life he had been watching from the beginning and he already had created a decision to offer his services to her. He told himself that he would proudly raise his head up being his sister’s supporter. He was aware that Erin had the capacity to shine brighte

Chapter 36: A Brother's Duty
“Eren, what are you spacing out for?” Kane’s voice snapped him back to reality. “We’re still not safe. Is there any place where we could make sure that no intruder could go in?”Eren sighed. The longer they were in the situation, the more he felt disappointed with himself.“Follow me.”Kane held Ed’s hand as they walked towards a secret door in the family room. There was a hidden room that was protected by a magic item so no one could enter unless it was opened by an authorized individual.He saw how Ed clung to Kane even inside the hidden room. Ed sat beside Kane and the latter held him tight. Why did he look more like the older brother compared to him? He was supposed to be the one making his siblings feel safe, right?Kane looked at Ed and noticed that his eyes were droopy. He gently patted his head and soon enough, the young man fell asleep like a little kid.“It’s rare to

Chapter 37: Formal Introduction
Kane’s first time stepping foot on the Ruiz house didn’t go well so he had been invited again for a formal introduction and it would also be his first day as Ed’s tutor. Though he had been aware that Ed had a bit of a temper, he didn’t get the chance to see his normal attitude because of what happened. He just hoped that things would go well for him.“Kane, welcome back to our home.” Erin greeted him as soon as he was out of Eren’s car.“Thanks for inviting me again.”Erin laughed because she knew that Kane was just trying to be polite. If it wasn’t a formal event, he wouldn’t even waste his time talking or saying his thanks.“Let’s go, bro!” Eren said as he put his arms on Kane’s shoulders and dragged him inside.Erin who was left behind raised her left brows. “Did he just call him bro?”Surprised by the two’s sudden closeness, Erin f

Chapter 38: Tutor
“That’s not how you treat a guest, Ed.” Eren prodded. “Don’t you remember him? You didn’t even want to let go of him until you fell asleep.”“So what? I was just so afraid that time and I didn’t know what I’m doing. I’m fine now so I don’t need him.” Ed stubbornly glared at him before he turned his back and played on the piano.“And stop doing that!” Eren sounded annoyed when he closed the piano cover while Erin took Ed’s hands away from the piano. “It’s hurting our ears.”“Then leave! I didn’t ask you to listen.” Ed also sounded mad when he opened the piano cover again. “Leave.”“See?” Erin sighed. “That guy was so stubborn; I don’t know if you would be able to handle him.”Ed started playing the piano and produced that clanking sound again. The two grimaced and left the room

Chapter 39: Trigger
“How did you do it?” Erin immediately asked Kane as soon as he saw him go out of the classroom. She clung to his arms and tugged the hem of his jacket to get his attention. “Hey, how did you tame that stubborn kid?”“Tame? I didn’t.” Kane continued to walk while fiddling with his phone. He informed the AC that he would arrive at the lab early that day since he still had to tutor Ed after.“But you did! He stopped coming to the music room to play that terrifying music and he started asking more about you!” Erin seemed happy to see that something already changed in his brother after the first time he met Kane.However, Kane knew better. It was not as if Ed changed within just one night. Rather, he was just starting to open himself up to other people without being afraid that he would be considered as weird.It was good to know that Ed was more motivated than he thought. Since he was the one working on hi

Chapter 40: Memory Gap
“What is this?” Mr. Romero berated when he saw the third page of the questionnaire that Kane had been answering before his collapse. “I emphasized not to mention anything about dungeons and anything related to being a hunter!”The other two just lowered their head. Mr. Basilio was sure that he double-checked the questionnaires earlier and he asked those questions to be removed. How come the unedited one was printed and given to Kane instead of the one he asked Mr. Capili to prepare?Though he wanted to defend himself, he couldn’t retort because of his superior’s rage. Kane was a valuable test subject. They were all aware of that. So even if they felt wronged by Mr. Romero’s anger, they couldn’t say anything because of Kane’s state. He, too, was mad about what happened. He was afraid that Kane would feel unsafe in their current setup and suddenly withdraw.“Don’t you have an excuse for this? We all
