“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

“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
Languid Kane 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
Languid Kane Chapter 41: Kept
Kane entered the café and he saw Xander waving his hands for him. He nodded to acknowledged that he had seen him and walked towards them. He looked at Erin who didn’t even greet nor looked at him. Was she still mad at him?It had been days since she stormed out of the room after she took care of him when he collapsed. He had been thinking about it and he thought that he might have been a little harsh on her since she was just worried about him. But still, he wouldn’t take back what he said. He was actually trying to be considerate which he rarely did, so why would he take those words back when he said those out of his goodwill for the first time in a long while.“I’ll order for you, Kane!” Xander immediately stood up and left their table to approach the counter.Now, they were left in a more awkward atmosphere. Erin didn’t seem to have a plan on talking first so he just sat beside her and nudged her a little.&ld
Languid Kane Chapter 42: Xander's Worry
When Kane was still inside the office, Xander sat on the couch. “It’s been a while since I last came here.”Erin who had just come from the kitchen, put down three glasses of juice on the center table before she sat beside him. “Nothing really changed here, right?”Eren chuckled and took a glass of juice and took a sip from it. “I wonder what those two would be talking about.” Though he was curious, he wanted to respect his father’s decision to talk to their friend alone. He could just ask Kane later if it wasn’t confidential.The guys looked at Erin when they heard her phone ring. She was compelled to check her phone all of a sudden because the attention was all on her. She furrowed her brows when she realized that it was Xander’s sister.“Lexi, why did you call?”Xander looked at her with a raised brow when he heard her call his sister’s name. Why would his sister call

“Kane, you’re going to tutor me today, right?” Ed said from the stairs. He was already in his room, expecting for Kane to come. However, his tutor didn’t come after half an hour so he had to go down and check on him.“Ah, right.” Kane had a monotonous voice which made him look more nonchalant than he should be. He took his bag that was on the couch and followed after Ed who was already walking back to his room. “Keep that guy entertained until his sister calls again.”“I will!” Erin chuckled.Eren looked at Erin with a suspicious gaze. He already had a hunch that those two already made up after a few days of not talking to each other, but how could they act close as if nothing happened?“How would you even entertain me?” Xander pouted with his left brow raised.“Just like the usual? Entertain me,” Erin said with a teasing yet sarcastic laugh.Xander’s b
Languid Kane Chapter 44: Surprise!
Eren took the family car which was bigger compared to his own car. They all went in and Kane noticed that Ed seemed to be eager but he was keeping his expression neutral. “You noticed too?” Erin, who was seated beside him in the middle part of the car, asked with a smile on her face. “He had been trying to copy you lately.” “I already said that he’s not like me, though?” Kane insisted as he pulled a book from his bag. “No books allowed. Do you want to destroy your eyes?” Erin nagged with raised brows. She took the book from Kane’s hand and put it in her bag. “My eyes wouldn’t be ruined from reading.” Kane insisted but the lady wouldn’t background, but Erin acted as if she didn’t hear anything. Erin turned to Ed and she slapped her forehead when she noticed that even her younger brother was also reading a book. Since Ed was seated beside Kane, Erin leaned closer to her younger brother and pulled the book from his hand. “Hey!” Ed growled
Languid Kane Chapter 45: Surprise II
“What the heck?” Xander pouted when he saw his sister grinning from ear to ear. “You made me worried for nothing.”“Who told you to worry?” Andrei, Xander’s elder brother, asked with a smirk on his face.“Whose idea is this?” Xander laughed as he watched his younger cousins play with the balloons. The surprise party looked like a children's party but it didn’t matter for him. As long as the dessert corner was good, he would be happy.“What kind of an idiot would even forget that it was his birthday?” one of his younger cousins teased him.“Well, I’m already so busy with school and work and you still thought that I have the spare time to think about birthdays?” Xander looked smug, but for Erin, Kane, and Ed, he was nothing more than an adult trying to pick a fight with a child.“So, why did you end up planning a surprise party for me? I’m no longer
Languid Kane Chapter 46: Old Grudges
After the party, Kane asked the Ruiz siblings to just drop him at AC on their way home. Erin looked at Kane with worried eyes but Kane just looked at her as if to assure her that he would be fine.While in the car, Ed leaned his head on Kane, and soon enough the child was already fast asleep. Erin smiled as she looked at the two in the rearview mirror while Eren smirked when he noticed his sister’s expression.“Stop looking at them like a proud mom,” Eren teased his sister in a whisper.“What are you saying?” Erin rolled her eyes as she took her phone and connected it to the Bluetooth. She played the music on her playlist and hummed to ignore his brother’s teasing eyes.Eren averted his attention to Kane who was silently looking outside the window.“Kane, is it fine to drop you at the stop near AC? I forgot I’m on coding today so there were routes I’m not allowed to pass.” Eren sneaked a g
