❝ let's put our plan into action ❞, kumiho heard liu's distant voice as she stepped out of the portal, ❝ head to the hero's memorial ❞, he ordered

kumiho furrowed her brows and looked down at him, ❝ we haven't figured out who the king is from their team ❞, she stated

❝ i have a feeling that we're close to finding that out ❞, he replied with firm nod before snapping his head to the side when pala screamed

it was shan—she managed to jump across the fallen bridge and was on pala's tail. kumiho clenched her jaws and pointed towards the next portal close by, ❝ leave ❞, her voice low and stern

her teammates nervously glance between both girls before leaving hesitantly but kuga decided to stay back along with liu

❝ you two better go, i'll take care of this one ❞, kuga cuts in with a smirk. he got infront of them with both fist out and was ready to strike

lien opened his mouth to disagree but kumiho stopped him. she shook her head at the male and wrapped an arm around his shoulder, ❝ i know how much you want to help her right now but we have to help the others first—we won't be able to break her free if we lose ❞, she whispered

❝ okay..okay ❞, he muttered with a doubtful expression and took a deep breath. she pat his back and approached kuga who kept an eye on the motionless shan

❝ she will beat you ❞, kumiho stated bluntly without realising and covered her mouth, ❝ shit—i didn't mean it that way but it's just she's—you know ❞, she groaned and gave up midway

kuga huffed in amusement, ❝ great talk, really inspiring from you ❞, he said sarcastically which earned him a smack on his chest

she rolled her eyes, ❝ just be careful ❞, she muttered, ❝ we don't exactly know what charming gold put into their system ❞

❝ i know ❞, he softly said and shared a look with her, ❝ you should leave before the timer ends ❞, he advised her

kumiho sucked in a breath and reached up to hold the back of his neck. he shivered as lips touch his cheek and a hot breath tickled his skin

❝ a good luck charm ❞, she murmured into his ears and brushed away his hair from his eyes, ❝ don't think too much about it handsome ❞, she smirked and lightly smacked his cheek before returning to liu

kuga suppressed a grin as he watched them enter the portal

❝ what was that? ❞, liu broke the silence as he looked at her with a sullen face

she raised a brow, ❝ what was what? ❞

❝ you know— ❞, he mimicked a kissing gesture and tapped his cheek, ❝ that thing with him ❞

she looked at his lips that were puckered out and the glower he's sending her. a smirk formed her lips, ❝ it was just a good luck charm, the same one i gave you before ❞

as they exited the portal, she leaned in closer to him, ❝ don't be jealous. that face doesn't suit you ❞, she softly whispered into his ear

she giggled behind the back of her hand at his flustered expression, his words all gibberish with red hues on his cheeks and the tip of his ears

kuga coughed into his hand, the other held onto the edge. he looked up to meet shan's eyes, it was obvious that she bested him but this was going all according to plan as his watch lit up with kumiho's call id on screen
