I Become Master of Danger Zones as Incubus With Mastery In Genetic

However, she soon reach the edge of the city. She seem to contemplate something. Alros decided it is time for him to make his entrance.

"Running away from the mob?" he asked, causing the twintailed woman to yelp, startled by his presence.

"W-what *hiccup* are you *hiccup* doing here?" she asked between hiccups. The incubus in disguise could tell she was crying, the tear streaks remained on their cheeks.

"I saw the mob and I decide to follow my favourite alchemist in this city," he replied before getting close to her. After all, he had some experience, or at least see people with some people with such face before. After all, it is the same face some of his friends made before they committed suicide.

"Are you-"he stop saying okay. After all, she is clearly not alright after what happened.

"Do you need help?" he asked instead.

"Yes," she said with a sad smile. "Please, let end this torture for me," she took a knife and was about to cut her wrist when he stop her, his hands grabbing the knife hand.

"No, I will not let you throw your life away," he exclaimed, keeping her wrist and neck away from the knife.

"Please, just end this for me!" she cried out, tears dropping from her eyes as she let go of the knife.

"They had been tormenting me for their entire life! They keep hurling abuse, cheat me of my earning, and sometime even beat me up! I can\'t stand this anymore!" she cried into his shoulder.

Alros let her cried out her frustration, until her sob hiccups turned into a soft snore. The demon in disguise looked at the sleeping alchemist and wondered, why did he help him.

A look on her told him all the answer she need.

"Oh, I am projecting my friend on her," he said loudly before walking away, intending to find an inn to stay at.

-x-

Thankfully, none of the inn question it when he said his girlfriend had fallen asleep. They just let him in as long as he get a room. Another thing to worry about of Furim City.

Putting her on the bed, he immediately go through what he manage to learn, which is unfortunately not a lot.

"So, they think of her as a with. As for the reason, maybe because of her ability to create tons of different potions. Maybe, but there should be more to it..." as the incubus mused over the different facts, the alchemist soon stir from her short slumber.

"Uuhhh," she cried out, rubbing her wet eyes. "What happened?" she asked before the memory of last night return full force.

"So, I am close to killing myself," she said to herself before she find herself looking at the one who bought her potions.

"Waaahhh!" she cried out, pressing a hand on her chest, calming her beating heart. "Stop doing that!" she yelled to Alros, who looked at her in amusement.

"How about, no?" the alchemist groaned, knowing she would not be able to stop him.

\'Wait, when did I get this close to someone?\' she asked herself, before remembering she had never been close to another person before, as she was treated like a plague since her childhood.

"Do you need any help? After what happened..." the man drawled, and frankly, she could not blame her. How would one, comfort someone who just been attacked viciously by the people.

"I think my head is in the right space now. I don\'t think I will try another suicide attempt," she replied, a smile on her face.

The man sighed before he walked towards her before giving her forehead the hardest flick she had ever felt.

"Ouch!" she yelp, a hand on her hurting forehead.

"Don\'t keep it inside. You just undergo a traumatic incident. If you buried it, it would keep haunting you," he said, looking at her with a serious look.

"Then what do you want me to do!? To cry like child! I have been tormented since I am a mere child! Just because of something they are not even sure off! They keep throwing abuse, hurt me, and make my life as a whole miserable!

I will not let have them have the satisfaction of seeing me crying like this!" she yelled, tears string down her face.

The man in front of her quickly hugged. She did not know why, but the hug feel nice. \'Oh, no one ever hug me like this before. A truly caring one,\' she thought as she leaned towards his shoulder.

Slowly, all the mask she wore, the barrier she put, all of them fell apart as she cried her frustration for the second time, sobbing out loud. As for the man, the only one who showed her kindness for such a long time, he remained, holding her.

-x-

\'I wish I manage to stop them from killing themselves,\' Alros though, keeping his hold over the smaller alchemist. He could remember his friends breaking down, before he would not be able to contact the man.

He only knew of his end when he read the news. It broke his hurt and spurred his revenge, for he would not let the one who harm all the people who cared for him, get out unscathed.

At the moment, he felt the desire to help her in getting her revenge, though whether she want to or not, is up for her.

"Do you feel better?" he asked, feeling it is the right time to ask such question. She hiccup but nodded nevertheless.

He rubbed the remaining tears, the alchemist leaning towards his touch.

"Do you want to talk about it or not?" she shook his head. Alros decide to respect her decision. If she trust him, she would let him in her secret, and maybe he would do the same to her as well.

"What do you want to do?" he asked. This is an important step. Whether she would let this place haunt her or choose a new place to stay, is up for her.

The alchemist looked at him with a determine glare.

"I would like to go to the Capital and set up the best alchemy shop in the entire duchy!"
