Hero of Darkness

e with a serious expression.

”Come with me.
If you stay here, I can no longer protect you.

And after I ’m gone there ’s no guarantee that they won ’t sell you off again to someone.

Although it might seem impossible, I promise you that I ’ll find a way to help you get back your ability to use magic again. ” said Kahn as he arched forwards and held her hands in both his palms.

”I know that it may seem very dangerous at the moment because I ’m not even strong enough to protect myself but I can promise that you will never face any harm because of me.

But if you decide to stay here no excuse would secure your future.
Not in the capital and neither in my fiefdom. ” he elaborated.

This was the main reason why Kahn came to visit Kassandra here today.
First, it was the life debt, and then it was a sense of pity he felt for her.

But now after spending that night together with her in a similar environment like this one, when Kassandra had tried to commit suicide; there was an unexplainable bond between them.

As friends or due to a sense of inkling because of their similar lives Kahn hadn ’t put a word on it.
But he knew one thing for sure that he wanted to protect Kassandra out of his free will.

Which was why he couldn ’t just leave her at the mercy of her family, clan and the Neutral Faction again.

Hence, he came to take her with him even if it meant taking some risks because after his departure she was only going to have a miserable life because of her current situation.

But to his words full of worry Kassandra closed her eyes and asked in a saddened voice.

”Why?…
Why do you want to go that far for me? ” she asked and opened her eyes again.

”If I also disappear it would raise too many questions and your true plan might get exposed to everyone.

And after that, the three factions will hunt you down with all their power and resources. ” she said in a resolute voice.

She understood what kind of risk Kahn was taking here.
If she tagged along, his final plan will be seen through in the future because not all the people in the world were brainless idiots.

Soon, someone would be able to connect the dots and all of Kahn ’s efforts would turn useless.

From what he told her the success of his plan would not only affect him but also the fate of the 220 million common citizens of the Verlassen fiefdom.

But he was still willing to risk it for her sake.

”Is it is it because you feel pity towards me? Or is it because you still blame yourself for my condition? ” asked Kassandra in a serious tone and shook away her hands from Kahn ’s grasp.

”It ’s it ’s not like that. ” said Kahn as he was suddenly caught off guard.

For some reason he couldn ’t find a way to explain why he wanted to do that for her.
Neither to Kassandra nor himself.

”It ’s just that I want to see you safe.
That ’s all. ” said Kahn with a conflicted expression, failing to convince both of them at the same time.

”I see if that ’s the case.
Then I have my answer ready. ” said Kassandra as she looked Kahn straight in the eyes.

”So will you come with me? ” asked Kahn in a worried tone.

To his question, Kassandra clenched her fists and a voice full of warmth and care towards the man in front of her appeared on her face and she finally declared her decision

”No. ”
