Ch. 06

"Waaaah I can't believe we're already third years and my pathetic wind magic haven't even reached second level" Xiaohou whined "Oh yeah, lately I haven't seen you both around for some time now. Have you guys been training in secret? Where at?" the sleeping Shengsi shifted under Mo Fan's arm.

"We haven't been" he replied and glanced at girl beside him 'She looks exhausted. I've manage to improve my lightning magic with CHT but this girl...' He tucks a strand of hair behind her ear 'she only shows up whenever she pleases, to either check up on me or train me.. I don't even know what's happening at her side'

"Eh?.. Brother Mo Fan, don't tell me you guys are dating?"

"What?!" Mo Fan blushed but contained himself as to not wake up Shengsi "We're not dating, get that nonsense out of your head"

"Admit it~ You guys are closer than ever, look she's even comfortably sleeping on you" He giggled "And you're arm snuggly wrapped around her"

"She's just really tired and I'm helping her get more sleep. Besides she also sleeps on you" he denied "We're just really close friends" his tone sounded like his convincing himself more than Xiaohou.

"Hm..?" Xiaohou leaned near him "Then tell me what you think about Zhou Min" he whispered and the two of them caught her looking at Mo Fan before turning away "I've noticed she's been recently gazing at you a lot" Shengsi finally woke up "Aren't you overthinking things?" she yawns.

"So I found this restaurant..."

"Mo Fan" the trio turned around to see a flustered looking Zhou Min "Can you come here for a bit?... I have something to tell you"

"See? I knew I was right. Let's hang out tomorrow, come on Shengsi" Xiaohou was about to drag her away "What do you need with Mo Fan?"

'Is she jealous?' The two boys thought to themselves 'Has Shengsi fallen for me after we've spent time for so long' Mo Fan didn't know what to feel.

"Sister Zhao, don't tell me..."

"We're both training and our schedule isn't consistent"

'Ahhh...' the two boys had a sullen expression.

"Oh Shengsi, you-"

Ring~ Ri-

"Hello?...What?! I'll be there as soon as I can" Shengsi looks at them "I have to go" she runs away in a hurry.

Turns out that Zhou Min just wanted Mo Fan's help investigating the area where her grandmother lives in.

"Hey, I'm sorry if I made your girlfriend jealous"

"Gi-Girlfriend?! I don't have one"

"Eh? Aren't you and Shengsi in a relationship?"

"We're just really close friends! And she helping me train for the duel" Mo Fan denied 'Riiight, but why is he asking for a lower ranked's help' Zhou Min rolled her eyes.

The ground quakes surprising the two, Mo Fan pulled out a small pouch "Isn't that what hunters use to track monsters?" Zhou Min asked as Mo Fan dumped out the powder "Yeah and it seems like there is a mosnter here" He stared at the giant footprint.

They went in and hid behind a pillar "A one eyed wolf" Mo Fan said 'It's double the size of a normal one' he squinted "And it looks like it's having supper" Zhou Min shivered at the sight.

"Go to a safe distance and contact the CHT" Mo Fan looked behind him to see Zhou Min holding a phone "What distance? I already texted for them" He turned back to see the wolf stare at them then he picked up Zhou Min "Didn't you know they can detect electronic signal! And it's like you sent our gps location to him" they tried to lose the monster and when they were at a decent distance he lets her down "Evacuate your grandma and everyone near this place" Zhou Min grabbed him "I'm not leaving you here!" Mo Fan held her hand "I'm going to be fine. Now go!" feeling reassured, she ran to do as what she was told.
