Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 110: CHAPTER 110 – Luna’s Suspicion.

Every S-rank raider can release mana pressure, but that means that they can feel and differentiate between mana pressures as well.

That was the reason why Frank was able to tell that there were many S-rank beasts in the army of the beasts when they were facing the boss of the S-ranked special gate.

Same reason why Frank could tell that the pressure released by the boss, or the hidden boss was not something an S-ranker could release.

Monarch was an EX-ranker when he went to the association, and the pressure he released was of low SSS-rank.

That pressure was enough to crush the S-rank raiders to death so when Luna felt the pressure, even as a peak S-ranker, she felt like she was about to die.

No, she was actually about to die, her life flashed through her eyes.

Luna knew at that moment that even if she was strong and she had authority, she was still nothing in front of real power.

But then the pressure vanished, and she was left on the ground, breathing hard as she wiped the tears mixed with blood off from her face.

Luna lifted her head when she saw a pair of black colored shoes right in front of her face.

"100 billion credits, no less than that."

Luna looked up to find Monarch looking down at her with chilling cold eyes as he said that.

Luna nodded her head with great difficulty, but she nodded nonetheless.

Monarch then didn't say anything as he moved towards Luna's seat, or the association leader's seat and sat on it.

Luna, on the other hand, was having a hard time lifting her head, much less moving her body.

She couldn't feel her body for a while, it was numb. But after a while could move so she got up.

She looked toward Monarch who was not even looking at her, instead, he was looking through the reports she had received.

Luna didn't say anything as she simply left the room to get Monarch's 100 billion credits, even if it ended up being the biggest loss for the association.

...............................................

As Luna recalled those events, she started feeling a bit complicated.

Should she hate Monarch? He just wanted his money, so should she hate him because he did what was right?

Luna had always felt like he was a divine being, and she should listen to whatever he said. That was also one of the reasons she didn't struggle or try to negotiate when Monarch said how much he wanted.

Luna could've just gifted the Association to Monarch, but she knew it was not going to get her anything, and she also felt that he was not going to take it.

Then should she love him? She knew that she was not worthy of him, she could feel that.

However, she didn't want his love, she just wanted permission to love him.

Luna knew that she would never be able to hate Monarch, it was as if her body was telling her that she shouldn't hate him.

But she knew it very well that Monarch had no interest in her.

She had seen his eyes when he looked at her, he didn't look at her with appreciation, love, liking, lust, anger, or any other expression that she had seen in anyone.

Monarch just looked at her with plain and blank eyes as if he was not even looking at her and as if the one sitting in front of him was not a war-causing beauty.

Luna didn't know why, her body just told her that she shouldn't miss the chance or it would turn into her greatest regret.

That was the reason she had been searching for anyone who matched the description of Monarch even a bit.

Luna had never seen anyone else looking at her the way Monarch did, although she felt insignificant, she wanted to be seen like that by only him.

Maybe she was awakening some weird fetish, but it didn't matter to her, all she wanted was to find Monarch.

She had never seen anyone else who looked at her the same way Monarch did.

'Wait-'

Suddenly Luna remembered a pair of red eyes that looked at her the same way Monarch's did.

It was Alex!

She remembers it perfectly, she had seen his eyes, and they were the same.

Even if Alex had a smile on his face, Luna who was a master in acting knew that one's truth was seen from their eyes.

Eyes are the gateway to one's soul, after all.

"Um, Ma'am, can I help you with something…...?" The light blond girl who had been waiting for Luna's order to leave finally spoke after a while.

She had been waiting for Luna's word, but it never came, so she decided to speak.

Luna's train of thought was broken by the girl's words, but she hurriedly asked.

"Is there any information regarding Monarch?" Luna asked although she knew the answer.

"…...No ma'am," The girl replied as she sighed inwardly.

Luna would ask this question every day even though she knew that there were no results.

Some people already think that Luna has fallen for this enigmatic guy while some think that she hated him so much that she wants to kill him as soon as possible.

"I see," Luna sighed but then she spoke.

"Get me as many pictures of Alex Matthew as you can get for me," Luna spoke again, but the girl was shocked.

"Ma'am, um, are you in AM club as well...?" The girl asked with a hesitant voice.

"What is that??" Luna looked at the girl with confusion.

"How do you not know that?!?! It is the fan club made for our prince charming, Alex Matthew!" The girl exclaimed as she heard that Luna didn't know what AM club was.

But then she realized where she was and who she was speaking to, so she hurriedly apologized.

"I- I am sorry, Ma'am!!!" She gave Luna a perfect 90-degree bow.

Luna looked at the girl for a while, before she spoke.

"It's alright, just get me what I asked for," Luna waved her hand as she spoke.

"Yes, ma'am."

The girl literally ran after saying that. She was worried that Luna might change her mind and punish her for the disrespect, so running away from there was the best option she could think of.

As the girl left the room, Luna finally couldn't control it, she leaned on her desk to control her heart that was about to burst out of her throat.

When she thought about Alex more deeply, she could find many features of his that matched with Monarch.

From the fact that both of them had long hair that reached their shoulder, to the fact that both of them always had that same relaxed attitude, all of them matched.

She couldn't believe that Monarch and Alex were the same people, but she was suspicious.

But when she thought about how she was thinking of finding a way to kill Alex, she just couldn't calm herself down.

She would rather die than think about killing Monarch and just the fact that Alex could be Monarch made and she was thinking of ways to him made it hard for her to control her emotions.

She calmed down after a while, after all, it was still not confirmed that Alex was Monarch.

She waited for the girl to come back with Alex's photos as she needed to look into Alex deeply now.

But there was one thing she seemed to have forgotten, even if she tried the best of her best or even if she tried to explode herself, she wouldn't even be able to harm a single hair of Monarch/ Alex.
