For almost twenty minutes, Logan felt it unbearable to watch the married love birds talk to each other in a friendly and romantic manner.And then Logan went up to them and said, “I’m sorry, but can I get some alcohol for myself?”“It’s morning, though,” Gabe said.“That’s not the issue,” Mia quickly added. “Alcohol is bad for your health.”“They say just one glass a day is fine,” Logan retorted. “I’m just going to drink a glass.”“Whoever said that just wants to hook people into drinking alcohol,” Mia said. “Don’t be fooled by their business tactics.”Logan ignored her and looked at Gabe. “It’s only one glass.”“Dude, my system is telling me right now that even that one glass a day will destroy your brain little by little and make a mess out of you,” Gabe told him. “So, for your sake, you shouldn’t drink alcohol.”Logan frowned. “So you’re saying you never drank.”“I’m saying you should never drink,” Gabe calmly replied.Logan’s frown deepened. “How about some meat then? Can I at lea
At eight in the morning.Ulf was eating grapes right outside the window. He stayed out of reach, just to annoy Kiera and Natasha even more. They were hurling curses at him, but he let them out through another ear.“I wish these were seeded grapes so that I would have spit at them,” Ulf said.Kiera and Natasha had enough and tried to bang the door together. The door was absurdly tough because it was made out of teak wood, and their shoulders hurt.“Haha,” Ulf laughed. “Do you want some grapes to replenish your strength?”“Yeah,” Kiera quickly said.“Then come out quickly,” Ulf replied.“Kugh, this little…” Kiera frothed at her mouth. “I’m going to kill you when I come out.”Ulf just pulled his eyelid down and teased them some more.Kiera felt utterly furious as well helpless. She and Natahsa had tried everything. They tried to persuade him, yelled at him, threatened him, lied to him, begged him, and did everything they could, but nothing worked. This was why they were profoundly frustr
Kiera and Natasha ran at Ulf like dinosaurs. He was playing with grass, and when he saw them coming at him, he stood and waved the blade of grass at them, causing a bit of gale to blow past them.Before they realized, their clothes were cut here and there.“Kya!” Kiera screamed and covered herself.“H-How did this happen?” Natasha gritted her teeth because her favorite blue jeans were cut up. She was about to attack Ulf again.“Do you want me to completely strip you?” Ulf warned her while holding the blade of grass in his hand.Natasha didn’t even believe for a second that he had cut her jeans with that grass, so she was about to attack him again, but Kiera stopped her.“Don’t,” Kiera grabbed Natasha and took her away. “Let’s first change into new clothes.”Natasha still waved her finger at Ulf. “I will break all of your teeth soon, brat. Just wait!”Ulf snorted. “Next time, I’ll shave your head in a way that your hair won’t grow again.”Meanwhile, inside the estate building.“Did you
A few hours later.Somewhere in Creed Zone, a vintage mustang stopped in front of a hair salon.“Why did we stop here?” Gabe looked at her. “Do you want to get a haircut?”“It’s for you, dude,” Mia said.“Me?” Gabe slightly frowned. “B-But I like my hair.”“No, it’s quite long,” she quickly said. “It’s covering your head, and the sides of your face, too.”“Yeah, but it feels good to me this way,” he reasoned.“No, you should get your haircut now,” Mia suggested, “so that your scalp can also breathe some air. If I wasn’t a woman, I’d get my haircut every month. You should be glad that you are a man. You can get your haircut as many times as you want. And it’s not like your hair won’t grow after you cut it. So, don’t complain.”“Fine,” Gabe said, “but if you give me a kiss, I’ll even get my head shaved if you want.”Mia was startled. “A kiss on the cheek, right?”“Your wish, Princess,” Gabe said, closing his eyes as he turned his face toward her.Mia looked around, making sure nobody
Though Gabe got a nice haircut, Mia only got her hair styled. Not a single strand of her hair was cut, which made Gabe a bit jealous of her.He pouted like a child and told her, “Why did only I get to cut my hair but you don’t?”“That’s because I’m a woman,” Mia replied. She felt like pulling his cheeks because his face looked big right now, and he looked really cute and kissable. But she was controlling herself for now as he was driving.“What’s a woman? What’s a man? Both have the same hair growing on their heads,” Gabe said. “It’s not like a woman’s hair is costly if it’s sold. If men grow their hair long, their hair will be sold for a great price, too.”“Haha, why are you so stuck on this?” she laughed. “If you want, I will get a short haircut, too.”“...No need. I like you with long hair,” he said without looking at her.She smiled and ran her fingers through her hair. “Do you like it when I wear a ponytail, or when I keep it loose?”“Both are good,” he quickly said. “Your hair i
As Gabe and Mia continued to walk, the grave that Gabe had seen a few seconds ago started having cracks form on top of it.Just then, Gabe was turning his head back, but then wind blew, and Mia’s hair hit his face. And he completely forgot about everything else.“Uh, Mia, I think you should keep your hair free like this,” Gabe said. “I think one’s hair needs to move around freely so that air can flow through to the scalp.”“Is that so? I’ll keep that in mind,” Mia wasn’t aware that she just managed to make Gabe’s heart race without even trying.Gabe didn’t care about anything else right now and walked right behind Mia, like her guardian as well as companion. Soon, they reached Mia’s parents’ graves.After seeing their graves, Gabe realized that he didn’t even remember the names of Mia’s parents because he hadn’t heard their names in a very long time. After all, their names weren’t written on their graves, but the words Lovey & Dovey, which Mia’s parents used to call each other.“Who’s
Seeing the skeletal hand breaking through the grave gave Mia pure horror. Her heart was already quaking, but then the grave broke open, and out of it rose skeletons who still had flesh covering their bodies here and there.Mia screamed even more and couldn’t even look at them. How could their parents who had died many years ago still have flesh on their bodies? Shouldn’t it have decomposed long ago? Just what was going on? Is this some kind of a nightmare she put herself in? If so, she badly wished to wake up from it.“Grr…” Both of her parents growled in a low voice.Gabe stepped to his right and stood in between Mia and her parents.“D-Don’t destroy them, Gabe,” Mia quickly said. “Beat them without hurting them.”“I don’t have such an ability, Mia,” Gabe replied. “But I think you’re capable of doing that. Make them hallucinate or something with your skill.”“I can’t do that,” Mia didn’t even open her eyes because she didn’t want to look at her parents like this.Just then, more grav
Gabe did not have any problem dealing with the undeads, except for two of them: Mia’s parents.They were especially aggressive toward him. And they even began to talk after their tongues regrew.“How dare a nobody like you marry our daughter!” Lovey shouted. “You are not even worthy of cleaning her boots! So, how can you think you can share the bed with her?”“M-Mother-in-law, Mia likes me, and..” Gabe blocked her clawing attack with his forearm. She was surprisingly very vigorous and robust. Her claws tore through his skin and flesh and made him bleed.Gabe frowned and backed away.“You didn’t even come to us and ask for our permission,” Dovey attacked him this time by punching the air. The shockwave traveled through the air and struck Gabe’s chest, pushing him back a few steps. A normal human would have had a hole in his heart after receiving that attack, but Gabe was only pushed back a couple of steps.[What the hell are you doing, Gabe!] Systa yelled at him. [They are being contro
