My Another Half

Chapter 6: We Meet Again?

Cale deactivated his power. His appearance changes back to normal. He is beyond exhausted. It feels like he can fall asleep right here right now. His sight also is getting blurrier. He staggering tries to find his balance. The hotness in his body also didn't help. Cale tries to maintain his consciousness. It will be trouble if he faints in the middle of the town. But his body is really at the limit now. Cale can't control his body anymore. But then someone catch his body before it hit the ground.

He can't resist anymore. He closes his eyes and hopes that the one who catches him will not bring trouble later.

Cale regains his consciousness when the sun is already set. He opens his eyes and sees unfamiliar places. It is not luxurious like his room but still, he can feel the coziness coming from this room. The door opens follow by the vicious old man he saw last night. Cale's eyes shook when he recognized the man in front of him.

"I see you are awake young master. I will tell my son to prepare a light meal for you."

Cale hiccups as soon as the vicious man is out.

'Shit. I don't know which situation is better. Woke up in the middle of the town or save by yesterday vicious man.'

This time the door open again followed by a delicious smell. Yesterday old man smile benignly when he see Cale's wariness.

"I am sorry for my late introduction. My name is Ron Molan. You should eat something first since you have a high fever a moment ago."

'What? Did he just say his name Ron Molan?!'

Ron Molan and his son Beacrox Molan. In the original stories, both of them is a runaway assassin and professional torturer. Both of them hide in Henituse's estate while working directly under Cale. As soon as Cale ass is beaten up by Choi Han, both of them left the estate and follow Choi Han journey. Cale got goosebumps as soon as he remember the original stories.

"...Ron Molan?"

"Yes, young master Cale."

"I see you know who am I."

Cale tried to calm his heart and answer nonchalantly.

"Of course I do, young master. Even though I am old now but my eyes sight is still very clear."
The truth is, everyone in this territory will recognize Cale since his red hair is a pretty rare color to find. That's why Cale disguise himself.

'Old my ass, this assassin is toying with me. He will not kill me right?!'

"...Where am I?

"You are at my house now. I figured out that you don't want others to know that you go out so I brought you here. Hope you won't mind staying at my humble place."

"It's comfortable. First of all, thank you for not bringing me home. But, how do you know that I don't want my family knows?"

"It's obvious young master. Didn't you sneak out tomorrow as well?"

"..."

'Wait, isn't this a chance for me as well. If my future is already different from the book then I can use Ron's help to erase my presence. Maybe learning some stealth too?'

Cale's train of thoughts interrupts when Ron handing him a spoon.

"Here young master, you should eat when it is still warm. Don't worry my son is a pretty decent cook."

Cale quickly takes the spoon and takes a bite after looking at Ron smile benignly at him.

"...!"
