My Multisystem In Isekai

Chapter 33 Got There First

There was only one face that came to his mind that had the impetuousness to come to his door at this time of the night, Nadia.

Even though he was tired, he got out of the bed and lit up a candle before opening the door for her.

The person that stood in front of her was not the familiar little imp but the always neutral but shy Kacie.

Zavier was as shocked as she was shy. He would not have been this surprised even if Valerie was the one standing in front of him.

"Kacie, it's you?"

The stupidest question that he could have asked but it was a knee jerk reaction for him, he just wanted to make sure that he wasn't sleepy or anything.

? Kacie didn't answer his question at all. She was busy bringing something out from the pockets of her pyjamas with a straight face.

It was a little bottle containing a green liquid.

Zavier didn't know what it was but whatever it was, Kacie had brought it for him to see. She brought her hands forward holding the glass vial in front of him.

"Take it, it's a healing potion. It will help you deal with the soul wounds you suffered in the match today."

Zavier grabbed the potion from her hands even though he didn't feel that he needed such a thing after all he practiced the Mesmer system. He could easily recover from the injuries to the soul based on his powerful mental strength.

Kacie's whole face turned a reddish hue as if she was ripe tomato about to burst. She had always been shy to say her mind but today she had mustered courage to go against the voice in her head and had managed to deliver the healing potion to Zavier. But in the process, his hands had brushed against her fingers.

This sent her blushing so hard, the color spread to her neck turning it all red like fine vintage wine.

Kacie turned around hurriedly, worried that Zavier would misunderstand. She rushed off back to her room while hiding her face in her hands.

Zavier closed the door and went back to his bed forgetting to blow off the candle that he had previously lit.

He laid down on the bed but his thoughts kept drifting off and he was unable to get any sleep.

His previous suspicions had turned out to be true after all. Kacie who he had always thought had only a perfunctory relationship with actually turned out to be such a caring girl. His belief that Kacie had always been shy grew even more resolute at this moment.

He had really misunderstood the girl. Out of all three girls, only Kacie had cared enough about the extent of the injury that he had received. No one else had bothered to remember that it wasn't just the physical trauma that he was suffering from, the black flame had also burned his soul.

Kacie was the only one who truly paid attention to his injuries and had even brought a healing potion to him for his recovery. Zavier felt grateful for having such a relationship especially since he had no one else he could call his family.

There was another knock on the door but Zavier ignored it subconsciously. The person on the other end waited for a while before knocking once again but this time the knock was a little louder and successfully grabbed Zavier's attention.

Zavier thought that it was Kacie and hurriedly stood up to open the door but midway he stopped. He already knew who stood behind the door. It wasn't Kacie.

He had used his Time Space Eye which allowed him to see through all objects within 100 metres.

He strode forward and calmly pulled the doors open and then looked at the person standing in front of him with a dignified aura. Even in her pyjamas, she looked like a seductress trying to enchant him with every little movement of her lithe body.

Valerie gazed at him from the other end with a slightly confused expression that lasted for a minuscule moment and then disappeared. She opened her mouth to say something but restrained herself.

But how could she have hidden even a passing expression from the discerning eye of Zavier.

"Have you gotten any rest yet?"

"No, I was just trying to sleep but couldn't. It must have been the extra sleep I got at the infirmary today."

Valerie nodded formally and then continued to say: "Are you really all better or does it still hurt somewhere?"

"My head still hurts but it's nothing a good night's sleep can't drive away. Thanks for your concern."

"Even if you don't feel sleepy, try to rest. It will speed up the recovery of your injury."

Valerie at this time seemed as if she was pushing it. She had nothing to say and there were occurring the signs of the appearance of an awkward silence.

Zavier wanted to avoid that at all costs so he hurriedly replied: "I understand. I will go to bed immediately."

"Okay."

Valerie was somewhat happy that he had listened to what she had said without any resistance.

She nodded her head in approval, turned around on her heels and left with calm and unhurried steps, the sound of which echoed throughout the hallway.

Zavier fell into thought following her departure. Even he could tell that something was off. She had come here to do something else but had ended up stuck doing small talk.

If there was one thing that he had learned about Valerie during his stay at his uncle's house, then it was that Valerie never did something that she was unsure of. She always had a clear goal in mind.

But today she was unsure about what she wanted to do, and that confused look that he had caught on her face made his doubts turn stronger.

This scenario left him all puzzled because he couldn't understand her motive for coming to him at all.

He was unable to see through the reason for visit because he hadn't seen what she had been holding in her hand the entire time. It was small vial that held a green potion. If Zavier could have taken a look at the bottle, he would have noticed that the bottle was the replica of the green potion that Kacie had given him earlier.

Since he couldn't understand, he didn't fret too much about it and closed the door to go to sleep.

Valerie on the other hand reached her room and put the potion, she had been holding in her hand, on the bedside table.

As if speaking to herself, she spoke out loud with a smile that was like a flower in the spring, full of vitality and beauty that was capable of toppling the sky and eclipsing the moon: "It looks like someone else got there first. There seems to be some competition."

She laughed out loud and laid down on the bed looking at the ceiling of the room. It wasn't long before she shut her eyes and drifted off into sleep.
