Death… And Me

Chapter 647 - Iʼm Not Roan

”Ahem... How can you be so... direct?”

Qia smiled as she said.

”Calinaʼs just doing the same thing.”

Agis and Frandin couldnʼt help but say.

”Hey, the two lovebirds over there. Can we start working already? I know youʼre married, but you donʼt need to throw it in our singlesʼ faces.”

Malaka laughed after hearing that.

”Hahaha! Itʼs fine. Having some warm air around isnʼt that much of a bad thing.”

Agis glanced at her before asking.

”You say that, but how about you? Arenʼt you single, just like us? Doesnʼt it bother you even a bit?”

Malaka shrugged her shoulders as she said.

”Well, I would need to find someone who would love how I am.”

Frandin, Qia, Rean, and Agis shook their heads immediately.

”Forget it. A singleʼs life isnʼt bad either.”

Malakaʼs mouth twitched as she responded.

”You didnʼt need to be that sincere, you know?”

They all laughed, which just made Malaka even more helpless.

”Hm-Hmph! Youʼll see! Thereʼs bound to be someone out there just like me.”

”That would be terrifying, but weʼll see.”

Rean then looked at Qia before saying.

”Still, are you sure you can simply ignore what happened in Sunkan Planet? I mean, Iʼm not sure if I would.”

Qia shook her head as she replied.

”Iʼm not going to ignore that. Instead, Iʼll train hard to get my revenge against whoever did that. For them to not consider an entire planetʼs worth of lives, theyʼre definitely the worst type you could ever hope to find. Still, youʼll help me, right?”

Rean looked at her and then at Malaka and Agis, who nodded at him soon after.

”Sigh... fine. Iʼll also do my best to find just who did that. Itʼll definitely take a long time, but weʼll get there, eventually... if we donʼt die on the way, that is.”

Qia and the others nodded, except for Frandin, who didnʼt have much to do with their planetʼs situation. Well, he didnʼt mind helping, though.

Rean then looked at Qia with a smile again.

”Now, then. Iʼm not Roan, you know?”

That comment puzzled Qia.

”What do you mean?”

Rean then grabbed her waist and pulled the girl close before kissing her in front of everyone. They had kissed many times before to keep up the appearances. However, it was the first time Rean kissed her solely because he wanted to.

Well, Malaka, Agis, and Frandin didnʼt find it strange since they were married. They simply thought that Rean and Qia didnʼt have these moments before because of what happened in Sunkan. Little did they know that today was completely different. Rean was truly doing it out of his own volition, which made her heart melt.

Rean then approached her ear and whispered as well.

”You brought it to yourself, mother of my children.”

Qiaʼs expression went bright red as Rean let her go.

”Alright, everyone. The coupleʼs show is over. Letʼs start working on the weapons for sale in the auction next month.”

Agis, Frandin, and Malaka nodded as they simultaneously answered.

”Alright!”

As for Qia, she didnʼt hear anything as the previous scene played in her mind. Sure enough, Rean wasnʼt Roan. Since she knew the truth and didnʼt blame him, Rean had no reason to hold himself back anymore.

ʼJust what did I get myself into?ʼ

Suddenly, the door of their room opened as Calina came inside. She looked amazing after Malaka and Qia worked on her with their new clothes and make-up. However, it looked like she didnʼt even notice them since her own expression was as bright red as Qiaʼs. Also, she seemed somewhat disheveled and... limp?

Malaka, obviously, immediately came forward to ask.

”Hey, hey, hey. Why are you ignoring me and just passing by? Is that how friends treat each other?”

”Eh?”

Calina was taken aback for a moment, and only then did she notice that everyone was there already.

”Oh! Youʼre back already. Well, then. Donʼt mind me. See you later.”

Before anyone could say anything, Calina rushed into her room, leaving everyone eating her dust.

”Suspicious...”

Rean was the one that found it the weirdest.

”That doesnʼt make sense. Roan would never care about how beautiful Calina looks since he doesnʼt care about such things. Though, how come it seems like something really happened between them?”

Qia, Malaka, and Agis nodded in response. They knew Roan enough to tell that Rean was right.

”It was probably something Calina did to herself. If Iʼm not wrong, Roan didnʼt notice anything amiss.”

”Well, thatʼs true. It must be her own thoughts.”

”Wait! Arenʼt you at least curious? Who knows. Roan might have really done something to her.”

It was then that everyone laughed out loud.

”Hahaha! Thereʼs no way that would happen.”

Out of nowhere, the door of the room opened again, and Roan came inside as well. Sure enough, he had the same ice-cold face as always. Seeing that was enough for everyone to understand that Calina was definitely overthinking something again. As for how she looked, maybe she tripped somewhere?

Rean then took the chance to ask something else.

”Hey, Roan. Did you figure out how our new routines will work? We might head out of the city for a few days to visit the nearby Demon Beast territory to try it out.”

Everyoneʼs eyes lit up after hearing that. After all, they all wanted to test their Soul Powers already.

However... Roan passed by them and walked into another room. From start to finish, it was as if he couldnʼt even see them.

”...”

”Just what was that about?”

”Could it be that... Roan really took action?”

”That canʼt be, right?”

Malaka and Qia looked at each other and nodded.

”This requires scrutinous investigation.”

Rean didnʼt even have the chance to say anything before Qia and Malaka rushed into Calinaʼs room, closing the door behind. In the end, only the three men... and a snoring bird were left in the workshop.

”Should we go ask Roan as well?”

They narrowed their eyes after that question.

”Do you think Roan would say something?”

Indeed. It was easier to die being hit by a meteor than make Roan open his mouth at the moment.

However, Reanʼs eyes suddenly lit up as he said.

”No, I think itʼs worth a shot. Letʼs go!”

Although they didnʼt know what was going on in Reanʼs head, Agis and Frandin nodded as the three entered Roanʼs room, leaving only Kentucky there sleeping.
