It was funny how most people resorted to threatening when they did not get what they wanted from me. In that regard, Kaname was not any different.
However, I was not concerned about his words.
"I'll keep your warning in mind for the future."
I told him as I walked away from him, and that caused Kaname to panic.
"No wait—! I did not mean to—"
I refused to turn around. And soon, I was on the streets once more with nowhere else to go but forward.
"Are you sure it's safe out here? Won't it be safer in that establishment?"
Kuro asked me, still in his cat form. He looked relaxed on the outside, but he kept looking around for any hints of danger.
I admired his efforts to help me out, but I shook my head at his advice.
"Sure, I could have hidden myself for now. But how long do you think that would be viable? I am sure this place wants me to choose its next ruler, so it won't stay quiet for long. The sooner I find somewhere safe, the better…"
