Nine suppressed his smile and grabbed Kyle's hand with a serious expression.
"Don't worry, ki.. Ahem I mean brother, I will protect you!"
His expression was so righteous that Kyle almost believed himself to be a kid who needed protection.
A blank expression appeared on his face as he yanked his hand away from Nine.
"No thank you!"
Nine stared at him from head to toe with crescent eyes.
"Are you sure?"
With a hum, Kyle narrowed his eyes and blue flames appeared around his body. The air turned extremely cold as the flames enclosed him in a protective shield.
Startled, Nine stepped back with a wry smile.
'Due to his appearance, I forget he is the strongest. Not to mention the flames..'
Nine's eyes trailed off to the surging flames. He stared at them for a second and blinked.
'Am I imagining or the color of the flames had really gotten darker?'
