As Kan stepped out of the club entrance, his heart felt heavy with emotions he couldn't quite comprehend. The loud music and laughter from inside faded into the background, leaving him to confront the unsettling conversation he had just overheard between his parents. The casual way they had discussed having multiple partners made him feel like an outsider in his own family.
Memories from his past life started to resurface, and he couldn't escape the pain that came rushing back. He remembered the heart-wrenching moment when he discovered his wife's infidelity. It had shattered his world and left him feeling betrayed and broken.
His eyes welled up with tears as he recalled the image of her with another man, the person he had trusted most in the world, being intimate with someone else. The emotional turmoil he had experienced back then flooded back, and he felt the raw pain all over again.
As he walked through the lonely streets in the night, the weight of his past and present burdens bore down on him. He struggled to understand the laws governing this new world, and the memories of his old life made it even harder to find his place in it.
But in the midst of the turmoil, Kan observed the movements on the street and noticed that apart from him, there was another man seemingly stalking an unsuspecting lady in front. He knew the optics of the situation didn't look good at all.
"Something doesn't feel right," Kan muttered, his thoughts temporarily drifting from the scene he had scene at the nightclub venue.
As Kan cautiously followed the strange man and the lady from a distance, his heart pounded in his chest. He couldn't believe what he had witnessed back at the club area and now finding himself in the middle of what seemed like a dangerous encounter only added to his confusion. He felt like an outsider in this new world, struggling to comprehend the laws that governed it.
The moon cast an eerie glow on the deserted streets as the trio weaved through the labyrinth of alleys. Kan did his best to remain inconspicuous, staying in the shadows, and blending with the darkness. He couldn't let the man or the lady notice him; otherwise, things could take a dangerous turn.
As they approached a dimly lit alley, Kan's heart quickened, fearing the man's true intentions. From his vantage point, he saw the man leering at the lady with an unsettling gaze. The woman appeared visibly uncomfortable, looking around nervously, and quickening her pace.
"What the...everyone here has gone bunkers! That bloody maniac is gonna try to rape her!!" ..
Kan's blood boiled with indignation. He had seen enough to know that this situation was wrong, and he couldn't stand by idly. He clenched his fists, reaffirming his resolve to intervene if necessary.
As they reached the secluded corner of the alley, the man's true colors became evident. He moved closer to the lady, his movements predatory and malicious. He began to speak, his words masked with deceit and charm, trying to entice her into submission.
"This doesn't look good. Granted she's beautiful, it doesn't mean you should do it without consent!!" Kan thought angrily within himself.
His instincts kicked in, and without a second thought, he decided to take action. Quietly, he stepped closer, making sure to stay out of the man's line of sight. As the lady hesitated, contemplating her next move, Kan knew he had to act swiftly.
Summoning all his courage, Kan rushed forward, using the element of surprise to his advantage. He leaped into the alley, shouting, "Hey, you there! Leave her alone!"
Startled, the lady managed to slip away in the commotion, and Kan found himself face to face with the menacing man. The man's eyes narrowed, and an unsettling smirk crossed his face.
"Well, well, what do we have here? Another pesky bystander trying to play hero?" the man taunted, his voice dripping with malice.
Kan tried to appear confident, masking the fear that threatened to overwhelm him. "Just leave her alone and go away. There's no place for your behavior here!"
The man's amusement grew, and he cracked his knuckles menacingly. "You're quite the brave one, I'll give you that. But I can't let you ruin my fun."
Without further warning, the man lunged at Kan, who barely managed to dodge the attack. Their battle began in earnest, with Kan doing his best to defend himself against the man's relentless assault. Kan's lack of experience in combat was evident, but his determination to protect the innocent fueled his every move.
He managed to land a few hits, but the man seemed almost unaffected. It was as if he relished in the pain, feeding off the chaos and fear he incited.
As Kan grappled with the strange man, the lady took her chance to escape the alley, leaving them alone in the desolate darkness. Kan's heart raced, and he felt the adrenaline pumping through his veins. He couldn't back down now, not when he had taken on this responsibility.
Despite his efforts, Kan found himself overpowered by the man's unnatural strength and agility. In one swift motion, the man sent Kan flying through the air, crashing against the alley wall.
Pain shot through Kan's body, but he gritted his teeth, refusing to give in. He scrambled to his feet, only to find the man floating effortlessly in front of him, a white veil billowing around him.
As the lady ran away, leaving Kan face-to-face with the strange man, an otherworldly aura enveloped the man. It was as if the air around him crackled with raw energy, and an eerie glow emanated from his body. Kan couldn't believe his eyes, and he felt a chill down his spine as he witnessed the man's ragged appearance transform before him.
