When she was in the kitchen, She had picked another knife. She secreted it on one side of the waist and covered it under her t-shirt.
Though, to demonstrate that she wants to be an ally with him, she had thrown the first knife aside before. But she still had the second one which she could use for protection. Thus, aiming it on him Zoe roared. "Y-...Y….You, d...don't... come near"
Because of that mischief-maker her words were facing so much staining as it had become so hard to utter them. Plus, The knife which she was holding against him was shivering as it would fall at any time.
On the other hand, He was warned but as usual he neglected it as if he had never heard it.. Reaching close he thumped his hand on the wall and hissed in a low voice. "Do you think you can hurt me again with this Small toy? Huh."
The aura around him had darkened and the sharp chill he was producing made her freeze on the spot. She was sensing a similar squeezeness in which she had gone through a while ago.
Even though, She was scared and her anxieties were terrorizing like a tornado. But still, she convinced herself, swallowing her panic and trying to persuade him with an excuse. she spoke up in a loud voice. "It isn't to hurt anyone S-sir, only for self-defense."
"Oh really.... And, On whom are you going to use this self-defense of yours?" He questioned. His voice was so calm and why not when he was playing as Hunter and she was a prey.
Zoe became silent as a carcass. Her mind had gone blank, she wasn't able to make even a single pretext which she could use as a pillar and scooped up from this situation.
Inspecting her losing excuses he snatched the knife from her hands and threw it away on the surface. Cosily, he placed another hand on the wall and asked. "You said you want a job! Pointing the knife on the one from whom you are seeking to do favour. Do you think any interviewer will select you when you are exhibiting this much ridiculous behavior?"
Through his questions she was getting a bone shaking gesture which was prompting her to run as soon as possible. But she couldn't do it because she didn't have a chance since he had blocked all paths with his both hands. She was stuck between them.
"S-Sir, Not a-any interviewer takes the interview like this e-either."
Her response made his sarcastic mouth zipped for a while.
However, She takes this moment as an opportunity and strikes the hammer on iron when it's hot. "S-Sir, You won't get anything by killing me."
"I will not lose anything as well." He replied instantly without thinking even a bit.
His immediate response left Zoe astonished and additionally made her resentful as well. How easily he could say that her life didn't have value after what she had done for him. Leaving behind her fear she raised her head and matched eyes with and sneered. " I have saved your life. You would have died last night by those foes of yours…..if I hadn't inter..fered."
Her direct and straightforward sarcasm made him grin right off. Heh..she is giving up on her puppy act? Why? Well, let's see how long she can endure? He thought and recommended it.
"I wonder what kind of death will suit you. Should I throw in the cage of hangry tigers or crocodiles? Or I should dissect your whole body in small pieces. "
He had come close to her face and their forehead was touching. "or throw in fire?" He mocked while getting close to the lips.
For exhibiting the gesticulation naive and solemn she had spended ironic effort. Unfortunately that all went in vain. At the last, she lost all her ideas or methods which she could use for her defense.
In conclusion, When clean-handed dealing didn't work, she revealed her actual character. Subsequently, the uneasiness and fear of her eyes was replaced by coldness and audacity.
Like a statue she was standing there and continuously staring at him. opposite of this, He was getting the waves as if she was challenging him that he could do anything as he desires.
Seeing her reaching her limits he decided to end his teasing. Noah takes his steps back and moves to the direction of the door and walks a while.
Before getting out he stopped and commanded "Pack your staff and come down in 5 minutes if you want to follow me."
"Huh" she responded like an idiot when she deemed his answer. What happened? Did he just notify, that she could follow him? That means she doesn't need to give up. wait? Whattt….?
"Hurry" He lefted a last word as a warning and left from there.
Zoe quickly wakes up from daydream where she had fallen when he approved her to come along with him. Thereupon, She quickly rushed and packed her important belongings.
