Chapter 305 Sphere Of Light (1)
"Wow, so many people!"
Balam's eyes hovered around, as restless as the wind. Meanwhile, Mok Jae-Hwa calmly walked while dragging the luggage of both of them.
This was not exactly a happy occasion for him. In general, it was, but this part of arrival wasn't exciting. The fact is that he is probably the poorest person in the airport right now.
"Oh! Jae-Hwa-ssi! You were invited too!"
'Of course, she came! Damn!'
Mok Jae-Hwa regretfully bit his lips before she came into his view. It was hunter Seong Nara. The second disaster ranked hunter of South Korea.
Her skin was as pristine as ever, her blue eyes brimming with everything that consisted of the beautiful life, under those bright eyes were a vibrant and innocent smile. But Mok Jae-Hwa was no stranger to that deceitful smile. She wouldn't hold back on insulting him when given the chance.
Her eyes went down and suddenly became filled with pity.
"I see, you have been through a lot..."
'What? What? What?'
Mok Jae-Hwa stayed silent. Closing his eyes, he let out a small pretending smile.
"Thank you."
He just wished she would move on already. However, Balam's arrogant voice stressed matter the more.
"Huh, Jae-Hwa! There are lots and lots of strong humans here! I like that I came here, I have always underestimated the hu..."
He stopped as his eyes fell on the blue-haired lady standing in front of Mok Jae-Hwa. Her gaze slightly turned to him as his widened.
'Such a heavenly beauty.'
Balam wasn't the kind to accept such a choice of words. 'Heavenly' was an irritating phrase. But it is what it is, what stood in front of him demanded the most possible description. Even after using 'Heavenly' He could feel his poetic sense slipping away. That is if he even had any to begin with.
He fell to one knee and extended his dark arms.
"My lady, you are by far the most pretty lady I have seen. I don't know who you are but I would be delighted if you could provide me with your name and nationality."
His usually arrogant tone was tinged with an honorific.
Seong Nara stared, confused. She turned to Mok Jae-Hwa.
'Don't look at me...?!'
He turned his head away from her. Even though he was as confused as she was, this was a good way to make her embarrassed and get out.
But who would have known that she loved the attention?
She leaned downward, placing her hand on his.
"My name is Seong Nara, I am Korea's second disaster rank hunter. They call me the ice queen"
As she responded, she used her slender fingers to comb back the blue strands of hair over her ear. Each blink of her blue eyes drew Balam in, they were like the endless and vast seas.
Now the poetry in him was waking up.
"I have never seen eyes like yours. Calling you an angel does not befit you. You are the peak of all things bright and beautiful."
"Oh my, you are so funny." She giggled lightly.
He stood up, his eyes were still glued to hers even after standing to his feet.
"You are handsome too. You have a beautiful skin."
Dark skinned wasn't common in Korea after all. Balam shrugged,
"What can I say? I must be unique to meet a genuine beauty like you."
His eyes were seductively staring into her eyes even as he spoke.
Silence ensued for a few minutes as all Balam could do was stare... the stares though... he was a natural!
She couldn't even maintain eye contact with the way he looked at her.
Mok Jae-Hwa, however, was beginning to get irritated.
"Balam, it is time for us to leave."
"Ah, that's right. My beautiful lady, I am so sorry, I would have to leave. But I hope we meet again. I would love to see how beautiful you look in another dress."
He leaned low and kissed her hand.
"But is there a rush though." She started and looked at Mok Jae-Hwa. "Judging by how you guys look. You probably need somewhere to stay. Do you even have enough to afford the offered accommodation?"
Mok Jae-Hwa grimaced. Now she was going to do the thing where she offered them help out of pity and made them stay together and when they got back to Korea she would never stop talking about it.
"I'm sure we will be fi..."
"I would be delighted! We even had to fly on an economy class. I heard it was the lowest of lows a mighty man can fall to here on earth."
She did find Balam's Korean accent to be a bit off, the way he used his words too was unusual but it made him all the more appealing. The rogue look underneath his smile was especially exciting for her.
Her eyes rested on him before she answered:
"Then you don't have to worry about anything. I have enough money to make sure you eat to your fill and are comfortable throughout this journey."
Mok Jae-Hwa wished he could drop dead at this moment.
"Well then..." She looked at Mok Jae-Hwa and raised a corner of her lips, "Let's go."
However, she paused and looked around. Her eyes slowly glided to Mok Jae-Hwa who seemed to know what she had belatedly realized. In fact, he had been expecting that it was the first question she would ask when they met.
"Where is the catastrophe ranked hunter?"
"He has a lot on his plate, he couldn't make it."
Mok Jae-Hwa said, sighing. At the very least, he felt prideful whenever he was talking about Raith.
"Ah, I see... to refuse the summit of hunters. He must be proud as hell now that he is a catastrophe-ranked hunter."
She turned away from the two and led them forward but stopped. She didn't even complete the one step she had taken before she came to a stop. Behind her, was a pressure, a hot pressure, it wasn't life-threatening but it was uncomfortable.
She turned and saw Balam's gaze ablaze with a subtle fire-y streak.
"I would not allow you to speak of my master in such a manner."
