Chapter 278 - 278 [Bonus chapter]Staying in City E
“But since he had decided to protect Kate, he will take care of her well for his entire life and will not hurt her.”
“He better be.” Kate’s Father looked at the sky.
Thinking of the days when Kyle was manipulating others in order to make sure that he got his revenge, he could only sigh. There was not even a single thing that Kyle did by himself.
He simply controlled his words and action to make others do what he wanted.
His ability was terrifying.
And once he committed to do something, it would be hard for others to stop him. There was not even any evidence that could actually link Kyle to the crimes, making others helpless.
But there was simply no law that could punish others for sharing information nor to talk.
That would be ridiculous.
.....
“I hope such an incident like what happened to your wife will never repeat itself.”
General Ryan was silent.
His wife, Kyle’s mother, died due to an explosion that occurred near their residence. It was because of the experiment that Kyle did was interrupted by that Petra brat who trespassed and eventually resulted in such accident.
The two brats were also injured and hospitalized.
But when Kyle heard his mother had passed away, he lost it all.
The world seemed to be Kyle’s enemies.
He didn’t care about other people’s lives and only cared for himself. There were even times when General Ryan felt that Kyle might not even care for his own life.
But after meeting Kate, Kyle began to care more about lives and everything that revolved around her.
General Ryan felt thankful.
At the very least, Kate is a kindhearted girl and not a violent girl who cared nothing of the world. Because he knew that if Kyle were to fall for someone who had no regards whatsoever for the world, that brat would have no hesitation to destroy the world in the slightest bit.
And at that time, General Ryan would have no other choice but to stand at the opposite side of his son.
No matter how unwilling he was, he couldn’t let his son destroy the world.
“I’m handing my daughter in your son’s care. I hope that she can be happy.” Kate’s Father smiled bitterly and turned around, walking inside the research institute.
“I’ll watch over them,” General Ryan promised and also left.
They were older and could only watch during the short period of time they could stay in this world with their children. But from the bottom of their heart, they wished that the two children will be doing well.
…
The night passed quietly.
In the morning, Kate was still being a cat and hopped down the bed. Looking at the well-furnished room, she felt more comfortable. At the very least, she was not outside and not doing dangerous missions outside the city again.
Even though the world had changed for several months, Kate liked the peaceful live the best.
Those who had been living peacefully would never think of it.
But for those who used to live in peace and now the world changed with so many dangerous and giant mutated animals around, would definitely be able to feel it.
What they wanted was stability.
Peaceful life where they only needed to think about what to eat and what to do tomorrow without the need to worry whether they would die.
“Kate, you’re awake?”
“Meow.” <I’m awake.>
As Kyle pushed the door open, he looked at the cat helplessly. “Do you really like being a cat that much?”
Kate swayed her tail playfully.
“Meow.” <Like I told you before, it’s more convenient to be a cat~>
“Heh.” Kyle shook his head. “Go down and have breakfast. Lucy texted me saying something happened to her brother. Also, you might want to have a phone on your own.”
Kate thought about her old phone and searched her space. Looking at the dead phone, she knew that she better charge it first if she wanted to use her phone again.
It has been dead for weeks.
She didn’t even know whether the battery was still in a good condition or not. But well, her space had the ability to stop time, so it should be still in quite a good condition, right?
Kate would just try to charge it later.
They had their breakfast and then left to the residential area of City E. After City E was being rebuilt, the areas were slowly separated between the industrial areas and also the residential areas.
There were also some other buildings.
This made City E slowly but surely looked like a normal city during the time before the changes had occurred back then.
Seeing the people who were working and laughing around, Kate smiled unknowingly.
She liked this atmosphere.
Kyle was watching the little cat in his arm. Because of the blood contract, he could sense her emotion and knew that she was happy. Even though there were nothing interesting, he was glad when he sensed her emotion.
Since she liked this, he would try his best to maintain it.
That’s all that mattered.
“Kyle! Kate! You’re here!” Lucy waved her hand when she saw the two of them approaching. Though, it had to be said that Kate was simply staying in Kyle’s arm when they got closer.
“Meow~.” Kate meowed and looked at the others.
It seemed that Lucy also called the others to come here.
“So, what happened? I was just calling my mother to ask for her help to arrange my marriage…” Jake complained.
Lotte’s face turned red and she slapped Jake’s back.
“Stop talking about it!”
