Chapter 195 - Eve's Ability
Chapter 195 - Eve's Ability
"How?"
Emroy asked with a serious expression, the only reason she attacked Eve in the first is that she felt threatened by her gaze, she felt like if she let Eve look at her for a second longer, everything about her would be exposed.
And as a person that had many secrets, there's no way she would allow anyone to know her secrets unless she trusts them, so if Eve doesn't try to pry into her secrets she's fine keeping her alive.
"Well…" Although he managed to stop her, he's not sure of how to prove that Eve is harmless, he knows that Emroy was threatened by Eve's ability, but he wasn't sure how to stop it because he hasn't really experienced being exposed by Eve's ability because of his system.
"Eve, can you control your ability?" Kyle hoped that it's possible for her to control it, but his hope was crushed when she replied.
"I don't know…" Eve wasn't sure herself, since she had just woken up a while ago, all she knew was that she had the ability to know anything but just looking at an individual or non-living things.
Hearing this, Emory's killing intent was leaking once again, this time she was determined to kill Eve so that she could hide her secrets, as she was about to attack Shizuka blocked her way and shouted.
"Stop! She's just a child! No need to go so far to kill her!"
If it was before, she would no doubt kill anyone who blocks her path, however, ever since she arrived in this world and discovered anime, she became more 'human' like, she had grown softer.
It's probably because she watches too much shonen anime.
"You don't understand and I won't expect you to, this is my last warning for you Shizuka." Emroy was ready to use force against Shizuka, if she didn't move in 3 seconds she would attack her, it doesn't matter if her attack kills Shizuka, as long as she reaches her goal it doesn't matter how big the casualty as long as she achieves it, that's how her life has always been, it's the reason why she was able to conquer her world before she was a God.
She doesn't care how many sacrifices she makes, if it's for her goals then it's worth it, she's a selfish individual, that's why she's called an Evil Goddess in the first place, if it's for her desires she won't hesitate to use everything to achieve it.
"Wait! Wait! I know! Give me a few seconds!" Kyle shouted at Emroy, hoping that she'll give him a chance.
However, Emroy isn't that nice, she replied with a cold yet emotionless expression. "Enough, I have already given you a chance, I'm not willing to give you another one!"
'Shit! I hope my hunch is correct!' Almost instantly, Kyle took something from his space inventory and put it on Eve's face.
All of sudden the tense atmosphere from before disappeared completely, knowing that his gamble won, Kyle sighs in relief.
"...That was a close one damn it..!"
Emroy suddenly didn't feel threatened by Eve's gaze because of the item that Kyle put on her face, then she looked at Eve before looking at Kyle.
"....You could have done this sooner."
"Ha-ha, if I did I would but this is just a lucky guess."
"Is that so?" After that Emroy stopped bothering them, and continued to play the game with her phone, even though she looks carefree she's actually surveying her surroundings, because of what happened just now she realized that she couldn't let her guard down even for a second.
Currently, Eve was confused once again, because she couldn't use her ability at all! Even though she can see what's around her, she can't understand what they are. This was the first time that this happened to her, and she doesn't feel it was bad at all, instead it was really beautiful.
"Daddy, is this how normal people see the world?" She asked with an emotional tone.
Hearing her childish voice, Kyle smiled and replied. "Yes, that's how normal people including me see the world, what do you think?"
"It's beautiful." Eve genuinely thought of that, and this made her realize that being ignorant sometimes isn't bad.
"Is that so? Then that's good, also don't take off the glasses if it's not necessary."
It was the glasses that stopped Eve's ability from working. Kyle was lucky enough to guess this, he thought that if she closes her eyes she wouldn't be able to use her ability, then what if he uses something that is able to block her line of sight?
And because of this, he was certain that Eve's ability could only be used in a single individual or an item each time, which means she has to focus on that single thing and only after she understands that certain individual or item, only then can she use her ability again.
This means If she looks at the same item that she already understands, her ability won't work at all!
"I understand daddy!" Eve understood why her daddy said something like that, it was to protect her, because of this incident she realized something important and that not everyone is fine being exposed by her ability, that's why she had to be careful next time she uses her ability, even though her daddy had successfully protected her this time, she wasn't foolish enough to think that he could protect her every time.
Another thing, she was really lucky to have a father that isn't even related in blood who protects her even though they just met today, if it was another person who saw her first and the same situation happens would they protect her like her daddy just did?
The answer remains unknown, but it doesn't matter now, Eve swears to become very strong to the point that no one could threaten her and her daddy, right now she values her relationship significantly, she now thinks of Kyle as her real father.
And she would always be loyal to him no matter what.
---
Kyle, Eve, Shizuka, and Emroy had reunited with the others, in their way to meet the other Shizuka continuously nagging Emroy because of what happened a while ago, and yet because of that, she realized that Emroy doesn't think of her that much, and their relationship was like a titanic that could sink anytime soon.
But even so, she wasn't discouraged by that nor she became afraid of her, instead, she was determined to befriend her even more, she wanted to become someone important to her, this was another type of courting death.
Of course, Kyle know this, there's no way he didn't but even so, he allowed her to do that much, he only allowed her to do what she wants because she knows Emroy isn't an unreasonable individual, she won't do anything to the other party as long as they don't harm or threaten her, and the best example of is what happen with Eve a while ago.
Besides, even if she does something to Shizuka, it wouldn't be just Kyle but everyone living in his mansion would face her, no matter how powerful she is, there's no way she could beat 4 dragons at the same time.
Now that everyone reunited, the first thing they asked Kyle was did he kidnap the girl behind him or not, this made him smile bitterly and said. "Do I really look like one?"
Everyone looked at each other before nodding together, seeing that everyone betrayed him, he looked at the sky and said. "I'm tired."
The silence was in the air for a moment, after that they apologized to him, they just wanted to tease him since such a rare moment is hard to come by, aside from that they asked who is the girl behind him, and where did he find her.
Kyle explained everything, aside from his shrine and religion there is no way he will let them know! It was the very reason why he had to go alone without anyone following him.
After the explanation, everyone had a different reaction, but most of the reactions were exciting because who would have thought under them there is an ancient city! They want to go there right now!
But among them, there was a reaction that he didn't expect at all! It was from Tohru, he thought that she would be angry, depressed or something similar, but what he got was something unexpected, it was happiness!
He wasn't sure what it meant, but when she approached Eve, he understood, she was happy because she just became a mother, since he's the father naturally she would be the mother, though she wasn't the only one. (lol)
