The Purple Eyes | Kim Seungmin

48

Surprised at Seungmins teleporting ability, Ms Ryu thanked him with a chuckle. "This will be your place for now. Please let Gyeonghui know if there is anything you need. A barrier is put in place to make sure this building is hidden from the outside world. It should be the safest option."

The small girl deeply bowed. "Feel free to just call me Gyeong. I am happy to be at service to you all."

"Thank you, Ms Ryu." Byeol bowed to the woman. She bowed back while shaking her head. "No, thank you Byeol. I must be going now. Make yourselves at home."

She walked out the front door, declining Seungmins offer to teleport her back. The five stared at one another, feeling slightly awkward with all the sudden changes.

"This... is a lot." Jinae huffed. The whole group agreed, slowly splitting off to look around. Airi followed Jinae to the back of the house as Byeol sparked up a conversation with the vampire butler.

Miyus eyes found the males as he gave a small smile. "You okay?"

Only slightly nodding, she let her feet carry her up the staircase. Most of the bedrooms were the same size, so she decided on the only bedroom facing the front of the house. Like the other rooms, it also had a balcony.

Seungmin opened the doors, bringing light into the baby blue colored room. Approaching him, she let him pull her into his arms and just leaned her body into his chest. "When will the surprises stop?"

She pulled out the photo, handing it over. "Ahmya also got my moms signal. She is the one standing between Ms Ryu and my mother, Asumi. I want to find her to know what she knows."

He nodded. "Let's talk to Byeol about it later."

Finally getting some chuckles out, Jinae and Airi goofed off in the gym. With safety mats everywhere, Jinae wanted to teach the younger some basic self defense.

Though it ended up being more of a playful tickle session.

Gyeong knocked on the door with a small bow, informing that dinner was almost done before once again walking off. The two stood to catch their breaths before following shortly behind.

"Oh, hey guys!" Airi hugged Jisung and Felix, happy to see them again. Miyu and Seungmin also joined the kitchen as everyone found their seats.

"So, a lot has happened, yeah?" Jisung softly let out. The group took the time eating to catch up on everything, all having a bit more peace of mind when it comes to the thought of safety.

The loud slicing sound of a blade sharpening echoed through the trees. The human felt her legs shake from fear, yet still continued to walk closer. "H-hey Majo?"

He only slightly turned away to see her in the corner of his vision. Going back to his task, he let out a deep hum.

"I uh, I just wanted to see if we still worked together- as hunters ya know?" She chuckled, avoiding the sweat dripping from her brow. With his actions coming to a halt, he grabbed a rag to clean off his knife.

Noticing the shine it gave, he couldn't help but smile.

"Do you know.. just how many souls I've trapped in this sword?"

"I-its a knife, n-not a s-"

She squeezed her eyes shut as she felt the metal against her neck. "Many, I a-am s-sure."

"Many is right. That includes Sujin after she had a tantrum over me cutting that Kimikos life short. You see... I can't risk others getting me involved in petty fights. I don't need that on my name." He chuckled once more, lowering the knife.

Fighting her tears back, the girl only nodded to his words. She had her suspisions; turns out they were true.

"Find out where those purple eyes and Moon ran off to." He stated, walking up to test his knife on some cloth. She felt her eyes grow in size and her heart speed up a thousand times more.

"T-the purple eyes?"

"The sweet tasting sisters or whatever you want to call them. I don't care. I want to know where they are."

"O-okay. I will find them."
