Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

The moment the door opened, Acht didn't think twice before dashing out of the elevator and straight to the Stairs. He didn't even look behind once as he relied on the fact that maybe Leislet will take some time before she checks her tracking device.

However, much to his bad luck, not even 5 seconds passed and he could already feel a strong aura coming after him.

'Shit! Why the fuck is she this obsessed.' He thought to himself as he jumped 7 steps in one single leap.

His speed was so fast that it barely took him a few moments to reach the entrance and leave the hotel.

Luckily, the streets were starting to become crowded so he bent slightly and ran between crowds to lose Leislet whose aura was getting closer and closer.

Acht kept running for a good 5 minutes, zigzagging between the people who jumped in fright seeing a small boy run at such speed.

After that, he took a turn into a closed alley where no one could see him.

He then rested his back on the wall and took a peek behind him to see if she was any close to his area.

'Dammit. I can't see anything.' He thought as he tried to find another way to see a wider area.

Coincidentally, he looked up and a sudden idea came to his mind. He then flew up to the building and landed on the roof before crouching to hide his silhouette from the people.

In front of his eyes was a huge scenery filled with thousands of people, and hundreds of buildings.

It was so chaotic yet so organized at the same time. But, he didn't care about that for the time being.

His sharp eyes scanned the area, he was akin to an eagle searching for its prey in a massive land.

After looking around for a few seconds, he was able to finally see Leislet who was running in the streets. Her face was red and her eyes were about to burst out of their sockets from shock.

She seemed to be still under the effect of the shock as she barely could keep her calm demeanor.

Acht instinctively bent down, even more, to hide from her view while keeping an eye on her every movement. She halted her steps and looked around frantically for a few moments before dashing into the distance again.

Acht felt relieved that she left, but he didn't really for long as another presence he knew very well was coming closer and closer to where he was.

Acht immediately stood up and walked to the other side of the building where the view changed completely.

There, he could see another hooded person running on top of buildings looking around while doing so.

'Fuck. Scarlett too?' Acht thought as he gritted his teeth.

To make things even worse, Scarlett looked in his direction and barely saw his shadow. She didn't think twice as she jumped to that building.

However, by that time, Acht had jumped far into the distance before leaping into the air and flying like a bullet into the distance.

"Wait!!" She shouted to him but he didn't even turn around to look at her.

Scarlett felt extremely sad that Acht didn't even give her a look but she shook her head and blasted into the distance after him.

Her speed was faster than his so the distance between them, although still far, was getting shortened with each passing second.

"Leislet! I found him. I found Acht. He is going straight towards the city plaza." She contacted Leislet while running to help her.

Leislet on the other side halted and then changed her direction towards the city center.

Acht took a peek behind him and saw two people running after him in the far distance.

He was aware that if things kept going at this rate, then he would be caught before he could even leave the city or do anything to hide himself.

So, he made another plan, one that was very risky but also the most probable one to succeed.

He then immediately floated down to the ground and jumped into a dark alley.

Leislet and Scarlett reached the place and entered the alley. There, they saw a closed path and a small boy standing there.

They both fell speechless as they saw the very familiar silhouette of their most beloved standing there, with his back toward them.

He didn't move or say anything as if he was speechless.

"Acht..." Leislet muttered.

Her heart was threatening to burst as she looked at him. Before coming here, she prepared what she wanted to say to him when they met again. But, now that they are face to face, she was unable to say anything at all.

The boy didn't answer her call and kept looking ahead of him.

Leislet shook her head and then said with a sad smile.

"How are you?" She asked.

Again, the boy didn't answer her question.

Leislet chuckled slightly in regret and said.

"You must be angry. I know that you are suffering more than us. I know that you sacrificed your own freedom for our sake. We couldn't see that at all. We never really thought about it until recently."

Scarlett then stepped closer and added.

"I'm sorry, Acht. I know how much disdain you hold for my family. But, I swear, I never really heard of all those hideous things they did. So, please, give me another chance. Please."

Seeing that after saying all of that, the boy still didn't say anything, and a small suspicion grew in their hearts.

So, with heavy steps, Scarlett approached him slowly and then extended her hand to grab his shoulder.

However, her eyes suddenly caught a weird thing.

"What?!" She shouted as she yanked his shoulder in a hurry.

Instead of turning around, Acht started melting like some kind of ice and quickly turned into a pond of some weird liquid.
