-(Beep-beep-beep)
-uhhm
Warm sun light hit my face and i opened my eyes...The phone on the night stand was beeping reminding me to get up it was morning 6 o'clock stella was still sleeping she would wake up later after another couple hours to go to school but today i wouldn't be escorting her nor cecilia.
I got up from my bed and started searching for my shirt when i noticed a little girl with a white blouse sleeping in the bed next to me
It was stella she was sleeping with a part of her school uniform even thought i told her to change into a light shirt...now that i am thinking about it what is she even doing here ?
I told stella yesterday that i would be leaving early to do other work she seemed sad about it when i told her that but she didn't object even since yesterday she was very clingy towards me because of the almost traumatic incident that happened yesterday i remember i put her to bed in her own room yesterday until i was sure she slept...did she sneak over here mid night ?
As i thought about those things a smoky shadow appeared behind me and started to take shape of a handsome blonde guy with green eyes he stood still leaning onto the wall while watching me with his arms crossed he also glanced a couples times towards the golden pocket watch his gaze would always just stay a couple seconds to it before he would look back at me.
At the time i already put my clothes on and covered stella with the blanket so she wouldn't catch a cold leraje still had that gaze on him as if saying he didn't like what i was about to do but in reality i wasn't rally planning anything.
I sighed and turned to him.
-I don't need your help you just guard my sister i will finish my business as fast as i can there is nothing to worry about.
He quickly straightened his posture and said.
-You may need a pair of extra hands if i am right what you are about to do.
He said with a voice oh so convinced of himself.
I raised my eyebrow a bit surprised and looked at him.
-And that is ?
I asked.He pointed at the watch and said.
-I can feel divine essense on the watch the maker of the watch has to be a god and seeing that i didn't feel it previously it means that you got it after the fight meaning that you made a deal with a god...
He stated flatly.I was really surprised he figured it out just like that but at the same time i didn't expect less from a demon lord of course when it comes to power leraje is the most powerful being i had ever seen in my life the only reason i can even beat is because of my ability to control time without it he can make meat paste out of me before i even know it.
I smiled at him and raised my hand showing him my first 3 fingers i approached him and stopped time at the same time and made him sit to the chair next to stella.
In which i stood in front of him and started time again.
-..?!
He looked around clearly surprised like the first time i did this to him and then he looked at me i was still holding my 3 fingers up and said.
-As i said before if you figure out how i am doing this you can play my bodyguard but for now.
I pointed at stella at her cute sleeping face she seemed happy in her warm blanket and wiggled around a bit to adjust.
-You are guarding my sister and you are guarding her regardless whatever or not i am in danger and with your life understood ?
I pointed at him with my last sentence.He nodded his head but i could see him grinding his teeth for a moment but he soon gave it up and just sighed turning back into a pitch black ring of darkness which i stuck onto stella's little finger.
I was soon ready to go and pocketed my wallet,watch and phone into my breast pocket.Because my yesterdays clothes were really messed up and dirty i used some of the working clothes from cecilias mansion those were long sleeved white shirts and grey vests with black pants and long leather black boots the clothing was easy to move in and was really quality made sometimes i also thought it battle armor then a uniform because the grey vest had a fine line of some hand of metal to it that covered your chest area whole,another thing to note about this clothing were the boots which were really easy to move it even thought they looked a bit bulky and all.
I quickly moved to the kitchen started eating some breakfast.The fridge was full of food to choose from so i had quite a feast ranging from well made meats to other bread like products it was really enjoyable and i was once again glad i was still alive and kicking.I took a cup of tea and moved out towards the balcony and ended up sitting on a chair while looking at the scenery while sipping some tea.
-Chirp...Chirp...Chirp
I looked to my left a bit surprised and what i saw was a bird a very strange bird even it had a small build and a long peak but what was strange about it were its feather they were light red orange and yellow the tail and wings were also really long the peak was yellow and its little eyes were orange staring at me.
I froze and stared at this bizarre bird...what was it ? maybe a vermillion flycatcher no wait they only live in dry places why come here ? No wait looking closer he doesn't even look like one of those birds where did he come from ?
I ended staring at this strange birds eyes entranced for a bit my head was also losing some sweat and i was getting a light headache for some reason until.
-(DING DING DING)
I jumped for a second a bit startled it also resulted in the cup of tea falling down and the mug shattering into pieces spilling the content onto the ground.
-...fuck
I cursed under my breath and sighed looking around looking for the bird which disappeared to who knows where maybe scared by my sudden movement.
-(DING DING DING)
Someone was standing at the door i wonder who it was its not like i introduced myself to anyone.I was about to go to the door until i realized i had a mess to clean up...I stopped and looked at the shattered mug and suddenly i had an idea.
I crouched down and touched the shattered pieces of the mug and willed my powers to it and sure enough the mug started to grow back on its own and even the hot liquid was back in the mug smelling delicious.
-(DING DING)
I got up and started going back to the kitchen and spilled the contend of the mug into the drain and set the mug onto the table if you wanna know no,i wasn't going to finish that it my eyes it was still on the ground and far exceeded my 3 seconds rule for food.
I walked down to the first floor heading to the front door at that point i had already lost all thoughts about the strange bird and just wondered who was visiting and if they were friendly or not.
And as i came closer i could see the silhouette of a person standing next to the door through the show cases.
==========================================
-(DING)
I opened the front door without warning and looked at the person who was ringing it.It turned out to be a man with short brown hair and a long leather mantle on him we stared at each other questionable who the person was we faced each other he was about to speak but i was the first to talk.
Stolen novel; please report.
-you are ?
-ehm are you ? w..wait is this the..ehm...
He looked a bit surprised by my not so friendly tone and was a bit in loss of words when facing me and stuttered using his words which made me even more annoyed.
-If your not going to answer me sir i am leaving good day sir
I had already my black leather jacket on and started to walk out of the house closing the door without locking it i wasn't worried about it because i knew it would lock itself and sure enough there was a light shine from the lock hole and with a click it was locked.
Meanwhile the guy was still stuttering with his words and pulled out a little notepad shuffling through his little pages to find something i gave him the chance and just waited for him in front of the door i was still curious why he was here but he was still shuffling through his little notepad and while he was doing so i could see a badge hanging on his waist...police ?I was getting more devious about the situation and was about to leave him hanging until another person came in and she seemed more capable then this guy
-Hey martin i told you to let me handle the talking and don't forget who is the apprentice over here.
I turned to my left and met with a black haired tall woman also wearing a long leather mantle she looked a bit shifty but normal over all she stared at me and came closer to her partner ?
-Sorry if my partner here had you waiting for him he can be slow sometimes
He didn't seem to like that comment but let it slide.I looked at her and asked.
-why are you here ?
She showed me here police badge for a second and it read with caital letters L.A.P.D with a star it.She smiled for show and just to be friendly and said.
-We are investigating a case and would like to ask you if anything strange happened over the past weeks or so if you could enlighten us we would be very happy mister...
She gesture with her hand for my name but i had none of it i only came here like 3 or 4 days ago what would i know ? Other then gaining the ability to control time and ending up becoming the bodyguard for one of the most important people in the magical world fighting a dragon and then dying and then making a deal with a god in return to be resurrected and now going on a task to find his daughter for him to keep the deal alive...hmm i didn't see anything wrong with that.
So i smiled and said.
-No i didn't see anything strange over these past weeks now if you excuse me.
I started walking the other side but suddenly i was stopped by something someone grabbed my arm and i turned around and realized it was the male investigator who was locking in place he was a bit angry at it showed to his face.
-You,now listen here brat we didn't came all the way over here to play tea party with so be nice and tell us....what are you arghhh...
I grabbed his hand that was grabbing me and squeezed it for a bit i never thought this enhanced strength was ever going to be any help at all but right now it was helpful in a lot of ways.
I pushed him aside making him fall down on his butt.The other police woman seemed like she wanted to stop him from grabbing me and had a frantic face for a moment until she realized i just casually pushed him off.
The police man was now furious and stare at me with hate and he stood up he said.
-You shitty little brat i sho...
He was never going to finish his sentece because the police woman cut him off sending a hit to the side of his head she was also a bit angry and it showed through the force that she used on him making him go down even more holding his head in pain i looked at her again my look was blank and she just smiled awkwardly and bowed down very suddenly.
-I am very sorry concerning the behavior of my partner please forgive him this is his very first case and i am trying to teach him so if you are going to lay complains to him please lay them to me instead...
I looked at her and didn't say anything the other policeman was also a bit speechless.I looked around the people around us were staring at the show that was on the streets so i sighed and told her.
-I only came here 3 or 4 days ago i don't know anything about this place nor what happened in here i am sorry if i am being rude but i am busy right now and have to go.
She nodded and said.
-I understand thanks for your cooperation and we are sorry for the inconvenience we had brought to you mister.
I nodded to her and started walking down the street i sighed while i did so were policeman these days really so forceful ?
===================Mishel P.O.V==================
I looked at the boy as he walked down the street his attire was very quality clean and expensive his attitude was also really clean without an error not fitting someone his age but what made me really interested about him were his golden eyes..I never saw such eyes before in my entire life it really shows difference of minority what humans can be in this world but over all this boy was suspicious and he was a lead that i wasn't going to let go from.
-Why did you do that mishel i coul...
I grabbed him by the collar choking him a bit by doing so and i told him.
-Do you understand the words Protect&Serve ? you obviously don't seeing how you acted just now.You know what you just did directly grabbing him by his arm ? He could have sued for that kind of shit you know ? It goes against our rules not to violate or make trouble for the citizens when we question them but you just had to touch him ?I gonna tell you this one of my friends once questioned the mother of a suspected murderer the questioning was 2 hours long and ended up with the mother suing the investigator who talked to her do you know why ?
He shook his head while trying to free himself from my grip but couldn't.
-Its because she told the jury that while he investigated her he spat on her on purpose humiliating her not even apologizing for which he obviously didn't do in the first place but do you know who won at the end of the case ?
He once again shook his head his face was getting a bit paler then it was before.
-Of course that granny won that case she got all the jury and people on her side because she was the helpless one and do you know what she got for that ? A whole lot of cash and the policemen was also fired from his job so mark these words i am about to tell...NEVER TOUCH SOMEONE IF THEY AREN'T GOING TO ATTACK YOU.
I let him go making him cough a lot from the sudden intake of air and looked at the boy again who was still far away walking somewhere in this big big city.Touching was not allowed but who said going the same way was forbidden ?
-Martin get to the car we are following him.
