Kae dressed up the moment Anna stormed out of his room. Left alone in silence, he lay back on the bed, her words still replaying in his mind.
"She doesn't understand a damn thing," he muttered to himself. "And there's no way I'll be able to explain anything to her. Not now, anyway." He sighed heavily, trying to push his frustration aside. After a moment, he sat up, shifting his gaze to the full moon outside his window, its glow casting a faint light across his room.
"I've got 5,000 dark magic, right?" he finally spoke aloud, breaking the lingering silence. "Let's see what I can do with it… maybe upgrade my skills," he mused, brows furrowing thoughtfully. "Although, I still don't get how I only got 5,000 from that maid, yet 10,000 from Tharros."
Ding!
{Tharros specializes in martial arts and wields spiritual weapons, whereas the maid who died tonight had no experience with weapons or martial arts.}
