Nathan walked slowly towards the Destiny Card Holder, a person who looked like a clown, who was still frozen.
Alina followed him from behind. She seemed to be peeking from beside Nathan's arm, which, she didn't actually know exactly what had just happened.
The Destiny Card Holder man was still frozen at the fact that he had offended the wrong person. However, he was also aware that knowing Nathan was walking towards him, something bad would happen to him soon. He didn't know what to do at this point, his mind was still confused. But he knew, his pride had been destroyed in front of people, especially in front of his men. With that in mind, he intended to flee and flee with all his might.
His imagination had imagined his body away from Nathan and leaving his men behind. But suddenly, his cheek, which was hurting from being hit by his own card thrown by Nathan, was touched by someone's hand.
“U-uu...”
The Destiny Card Holder just realized that he was still in the same place. He who felt that he had fled far from here was just wishful thinking, making his soul become chaotic from shock and difficulty accepting reality. Then, he shouted loudly which was followed by a bad smell coming from his pants.
His men looked that way and something embarrassing was seen. The pants his boss was wearing were wet with something.
“Boss peed in his pants...”
They looked at him with pity. His boss who had never been treated like that and always boasted became pitiful like a child being bullied.
“Boss...”
Actually, what Nathan did was as an apology, for hurting the face of the Destiny Card Holder. He touched his cheek with the intention of healing his wound.
However, the reaction of the Destiny Card Holder was not what should be done to a person who had acted this way. He even looked like he was in a scary place, so he was so scared that he peed in his pants like that.
It made those who saw it believe that the Destiny Card Holder had lost his mind after acting like a madman.
"Boss, you're still our boss anyway..."
"Yeah. I guess, you are still our Irreplaceable Boss…”
His men tried to resuscitate their boss. They didn't think much further about Nathan who had made their boss like that. Moreover, knowing that Nathan had no intention of harming them, made them calmer. But of course, that didn't reduce their vigilance.
Seeing Nathan who was now looking at the man who had stolen Alina's storage ring, his partners immediately looked at the man and immediately ordered him to return the stolen goods.
...
“Nathan, are you also the one who has been awakened?” asked Alina who was curious.
After taking back Alina's storage ring, on the way back to the place where she wanted to vend snacks before, Alina had asked several times about Nathan's ability to defeat the previous Destiny Card Holder so easily.
“Awakened? Not. Really, what makes Miss Alina think like that?” Nathan asked back.
"It's obvious, isn't it? Besides that, Nathan is very charming..."
Just as Alina said that, she immediately realized that she had just expressed her feelings. This made her face turn red and she immediately lowered her head, unable to bear the sight of Nathan's gaze.
"Thank you. Miss Alina is also charming or even more charming than the word charming itself. Miss Alina also realizes that men often annoy Miss Alina, which is because the charm that Miss Alina has is extraordinary…” Nathan said with a small smile looking at Alina.
"T-that's because I'm a girl-"
"Isn't she also a girl? However, look at those guys, do they seem interested in her?” asked Nathan pointing to a woman not far from the two of them, then he also pointed at a group of men who were joking cheerfully with their friends.
“T-that’s...”
“Admit that, Miss Alina is no ordinary girl. I, Nathan feel lucky to be this close to Miss Alina, or even to be Miss Alina's personal bodyguard…” he said, with one hand touching his broad chest, he bowed slightly elegantly.
The streets were still busy which made the air feel stuffy, the noise that didn't stop at all, and the scorching heat of the sun, of course it's getting hotter.
Just a little spark, then that's where the fire would arise.
Alina who was walking beside Nathan accidentally nudged a woman who was eating ice cream in her hand and fell down. Then, the woman and her two friends immediately looked at Alina savagely.
"How dare you! Don't you know who I am?" asked the woman who had just been nudged by Alina.
Before Alina could answer, one of the woman's friends stepped in. “So villager! This great sister is the sole heir to the company…” The woman's friend snorted about showing off her friend's background.
"Sorry, but I don't know who you are..." Alina said innocently.
The woman's friend, who explained at length the woman who became the cash field for the two of them, coughed, feeling that it was meaningless for them to say so much. They wanted to grab Alina's hair, but they immediately gave up after their gazes shifted to Nathan who was standing beside her.
The woman who was touched by Alina, who was silent when she was being praised, was actually being mesmerized by Nathan's appearance and had noticed Nathan's existence earlier than her two friends.
Changing her posture to look more graceful, looking at Nathan with a lazy look, the woman who was touched by Alina walked up to Nathan. Since she was shorter than Nathan, she had to look up to see Nathan's face. At that moment, as if she didn't realize what she was doing, her face continued to move closer to Nathan's, the seductive look in her eyes with her lower lip bitten by herself, the woman almost lost control.
Luckily, Alina deftly pushed the woman backwards and back away from Nathan. With a flushed face and a ragged breath, Alina glared at the woman, before exclaiming: "What do you want to do to my Nathan?"
The woman who had just been pushed back was stunned to hear Alina's question which seemed to give her a challenge. She gave a small smile, before bursting into laughter. Then, her laughter calmed down again as she covered her parted lips with one hand.
"My Nathan? Did I hear right, guys?" asked the woman while looking at her two friends who were on the left and right leaning towards the back.
Alina immediately realized what she had just called out. Her body was getting hotter, the shame she now felt mixed with anger that made her act without thinking. Slowly, Alina looked up to see Nathan who was now smiling at her.
Nathan heard what the three foreign women heard, about what Alina had just said. But he was confused, what was the reaction of the three women and also Alina who seemed to be worried about something.
Therefore, Nathan asked: “Miss Alina, are you all right? Is everything oke?"
