Ch. 3Chapter 3-Date


“Never mind, leader! Your attempts to impress him are in vain, as he remains uninterested. Let's just go,” she suggested.

“Don't tell me you've dated him, too?”
“Eh, haha... no, I don't think..." said the girl's partner nervously.

Since their mission had been replaced by him, their group also withdrew and no longer intended to deal.

But suddenly Kety shouted, her voice yelled in the room. “Wait! Help my father and mother! Please!” She asked all those who were there to rescue her parents while weeping.

The man with the nickname Assassin Romance then smiled and touched the girl's soft lips with a forefinger, intending to tell her to be quiet.

“I'll help you, but don't be disappointed if I can't do it later.” The word made the girl hopeful and grateful that there was someone to save her parents later.

“But remember, after that, let's go on a date,” said the man back.

Because the girl's legs were a little distracted, the man was holding her. They pass a forest as soon as the sun rises and makes the atmosphere there clearer.

“Beautiful girls, are they here?”
“Eh, I'm asleep. Excuse me, and thank you.”

Kety's sleep was so good that she fell asleep the other day. Then, when she is really awake now, She rubbed her eyes again to make sure.

“Father, Mother.”

A cart without a horse is broken into pieces, and human bones are scattered around; it's clear who it belongs to. Her tears are beginning to fade, her regrets for leaving them, or just her inability to believe what she saw last night. None of the people around except the man heard the scream so loudly sitting around and grabbing the rest of their bones.

“These are the cannibals. It's so lucky you survived them.”

***

“Don't forget your promise,” said the man.

The girl had promised him after all this and then she'll date the man. Before the date arrived, the man gives her a little time to take the girl home.

***

Paradise Village. The next morning, the promised time arrived.
 
After tidying herself up in beautiful clothes, Kety slipped a piece of paper into the family photo frame. 

She paused for a moment while catching his breath, then opened the door.

“Hello!”said the guy.

This girl was a little surprised at the sudden welcome, and didn't expect this guy to be so excited about their date today.

“Very beautiful.” That one sentence made her blush.

The compliments are often heard, but she doesn't know if this guy who said it looked so seductive.

“No, no.” This girl shakes her head and tries to get rid of the useless things.

Something got her stuck with a guy who's often called the Assassin Romance. The cannibal killer. But this girl doesn't know because she just had a terrible incident last night.

“I've been thanking you for...” Kety's sentence hasn't been continued, because the man answered her rudely, “What?” Then suddenly, this man was carrying her.

“Don't do this! My leg is healed!”
“Uh. Seriously. You just sprained your foot.”
“I just had my leg treated, so I don't think it's a problem.”

“The village where you live is truly unique and knows everything. It turned out to be true what the old man said.” He said in awe.

“But I'd love to hold onto this little body of yours,” said the man who was still carrying Kety.

Crossing the same road from the border and the forest while carrying the girl he was going to date, he ran fast without stopping. Kety screams hysterically, and her heart beats fast, but this man was enjoying it.

They arrived at the capital of the Edeldan kingdom, Dandle.

“Don't you feel tired?”

“Just running isn't enough to make me tired because the most likely thing is that I can get tired because you are so beautiful that my knees trembled, ah ...as if my two legs wanted to kneel in front of the beautiful lady of the goddess of heaven,” he teased.

He is the Romance Assassin and often dates women almost every day.

“What did you say?” But this girl didn't hear a word from him.

In the middle of the city, near a great fountain. The city looks peaceful in the morning, but different when the night comes as it was last night.

“How's our date? It's fun, isn't it, pretty girl?”

"Actually, I regret a little when I followed his wishes," Kety insisted.

“Is this your first time in town?”

“No. I've been to the city more than twice, but in this capital for the first time, and I just found out,” said Kety.

The girl then asked, “What's your name, uncle?”

His chest was crushed when she was called "uncle."

“Uh, well. Actually, I'm 27 years old and young, right? Hm, but when it comes to name, most of them call me a romantic killer just because of my hobby.”

“You're not afraid of me? Well, it's true that every woman I'm dating is happy, but because they don't know my job, So that's it,” he continued.

“I should have been traumatized. Yeah, that's true. I'm still traumatized, even my hands are shaking, you feel it, too, right? But I was thinking of something else besides that.” The village girl smiled.

The man also smiled but was happy and said, “I think she's the one I'm looking for.” “Oh, it's true. My name is Kety Pery.”

A girl named Kety Pery introduced herself, but not to this guy.

“You asked my name? But unfortunately, I don't remember, but you can call me As or Ash.”

“Okay.” Counted disappointed yes, but not because for Kety, today's meeting is about to end and then they won't talk to each other again. That's what she thinks.

“Can I know what happened to those you killed?” Kety asked softly, her lips still trembling.

With a nod, Ash answered, “They're cannibals. Those humans who eat humans, whether they are reasonable or not, I will kill them. They die just like humans in general.”
 
“How do I distinguish them?”
 
“There is no difference. It will only be known if they show their true side.”
 
In addition to the banging around there, Ash approached and whispered something in Kety's ear, “Never go alone because this is the city where the cannibals are located. Find me if you want to destroy them.”
 
Kety, who was previously normal, now started to lose courage after the man whispered this, and suddenly Ash disappeared.

A sentence from him is like poison planted so deeply. Kety was silent in fear and remembered her parents, who had become bones. All these terrible events are on her mind right now.

Kety Pery looked over there and came here to find out where the guy was. Feeling so disgusted, the girl ran toward a crowd of people, no matter how she ran in her semi-conscious condition.

Until it made her crash into someone's body, and it turned out to be that,
“Uncle Ash, are you?”

The girl felt relieved when she met him again, but she remembered something that made her tired so much that she wanted to swallow her up.Nothing else is worse than when this man called Assassin Romance kills a human right in front of her without mercy.

With that in mind, make the girl step back, run, and leave the real guy she wanted to meet. 

***

Since that night, Kety Pery could only hug her own body in fear.

Kety Pery was lucky that day because her body was still intact. The guy with the nickname Assassin Romance didn't come to save her; they both met just by chance.

It's just a coincidence. Kety Pery, too, tried to embrace her fear little by little by hugging a picture of her family.

Trauma, physical pain, and heartbreak make her remember it over and over again.And when that happened and when she met Assassin Romance again, Kety was moving away from him.
