Zomarus arrived at the market rather late as Tura had been waiting for him for some time. When Zomarus arrived he found a lovely young girl with a long teal dress.
"Sorry I just got here. Hopefully, you weren't waiting that long for me." Zomarus said with a little sweat coming out of him. He was rather tired from running all the way here.
"Don't worry I wasn't waiting long, I just arrived here." Tura gave him a big smile and grabbed a hold of his arm as she began to walk around. "You know this is the first time I've been alone with a boy. My father tells me that I shouldn't hang around them, but you're special I can feel it." She said with a little giggle at the end.
Zomarus didn't say anything as he started to look around the market. Besides the two of them were many different stands filled with jewels and more pretty objects. Tura stopped in front of one of the stands and began to browse through multiple items on display.
"Ohh look! This one is so pretty, these earrings are lovely." Tura grabbed the earring and held it in her hand to show Zomarus. The earring was made of little rubies that hung from the ear.
The man behind the stand smiled and nodded, "That is a wonderful choice. That's the earring of love, the earring gives an aura around the user which makes them irresistible. Something as well kept as this could be sold around twenty gold coins, but since you guys are such a lovely couple I'll offer ten gold coins." The man seemed genuine as he spoke.
Tura looked up at Zomarus with such big eyes almost begging him to buy them.
Zomarus looked at Tura's eyes and then down to his pocket. He took out a small bag and opened it to find 3 gold coins and 15 silver coins. He was feeling extremely embarrassed that he couldn't afford them and sighed.
Zomarus didn't want to tell her no and started to look around the stand. He soon grabbed a hairpin and attached it to her hair.
"I do love the earrings, but this seems better for someone like you. Someone who's passionate about fighting should make sure her hair doesn't cover her eyes. Plus your eyes are too beautiful to hide from the world." He gave her a smile hoping that she would like it better than the earrings.
Tura used her hands to cover her red face as she stood in shock. "You can't say something like that in public or I'll die from embarrassment." Tura didn't look at him but placed her head onto his chest and held a smile without him noticing.
A large sigh came from Zomarus since he didn't know whether she would take the bait. He took out five silver from his coin bag and handed it to the man. Before handing the hairpin to her he was wondering what the cheapest thing was and found it in a pile labeled "5 Silver".
It was so impressive that even the man behind the stand had to compliment the young man for his skill. As Zomarus walked away he could see a grin coming from the man almost telling him ��well done."
The rest of the walk was quite silent since Tura was too embarrassed to actually say anything to Zomarus. On the contrary, Zomarus wanted to say something but did not know what to say after giving such a weird speech.
"I feel really bad about telling you all those things. I thought it would have been nice to say but it just came out sounding weird." Zomarus exclaimed with an awkward chuckle attached to it.
Tura stopped and looked up at him. "You're completely wrong. It's actually the sweetest thing that I've ever heard. Usually, guys just tell me how cute I am or look at my body, but you're different. You notice how strong I am and how I truly am. I've never opened up to anyone like this before and I'm glad that it's you."
Tura turned dark red the more she continued to talk but eventually stopped being so nervous and started to talk to Zomarus normally. Like someone, she could keep talking to for the rest of the time.
"Let's get going to the training spot. I just hope there's not a lot of people there".
Tura grabbed Zomarus' hand and dragged him towards the mountains behind the town. The path they used seemed to be used some time ago letting them know there was most likely people training.
"Looks like someone got here before us. Hopefully they're just an upperclassman who won't give us trouble". Tura said with a small sigh.
Zomarus noticed the disappointment in Tura's voice as he pulled her close to him. "Why do you sound so disappointed? I thought we were only here to train".
"You're so rude!" Tura pulled away from his body and started to speed up walking away from him with a blush on her face.
Zomarus laughed and continued to follow Tura towards a cave on the side of the mountain. From a distance he noticed Tura stop in the entrance of the cave and started to peak inside.
To both of their surprise sat Luther in the middle of the small cave. It had looked like he was training and soon looked up at his classmates who had just entered the cave. The first thing Luther did was stare Zomarus down with a giant grin on his face.
While Luther looked to be enjoying the opportunity Zomarus did not. Once the two made eye contact his entire body began to shake underneath the presence of a God.
Soon Luther stood up and began to make his way towards the two keeping eye contact with Zomarus. Luther knew that he was getting in the mind of Zomarus and used that to his advantage.
"Why's this pathetic human standing in front of me right now? Don't tell me you're actually here to train with your little girlfriend" Luther said in a teasing way.
At that moment there was nothing Zomarus could do. His eyes were filled with fear and his lip only quivered as he tried to speak up. He couldn't say a single word to Luther as his lips began to close together.
"And what if he is? I don't understand why such a pathetic god thinks he's all high and mighty. Maybe you should just leave and not bother us anymore".
Tura looked like she was ready for war as she got in Luther's face and tried to pick on him.
Luther didn't seem fond of such a tone from a girl who wasn't Iva. He stood there only looking back into Tura's eyes before he left
"What a waste. The air inside this cave has been messed with because of your human stench". These were Luther's last words before heading out of the cave and back towards the main town.
Tura looked back at Zomarus with a smile and gave him a thumbs up. "Looks like that dumbass won't be bothering us for a whi…"
Before Tura could finish her sentence Zomarus ran up to her and gave her a big hug.
"I… I'm sorry".
These were the only words that Zomarus said as he held a Tura who stood still.
"What are you talking about? I'm fine.."
"Don't lie to me! You've been shaking since the beginning."
Before Tura could get a word out she looked down at her bottom which seemed to be shaking nonstop since Luther had left. She then looked up with tears in her eyes before shouting out to Zomarus.
"I know!! It was so scary".
Tura began to ball her eyes out and used Zomarus as the shoulder to cry on. She didn't even have the power to hug Zomarus back, only standstill as she continued to yell in horror.
"Please!! PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME!!"
