Chapter 22: Biological Reaction

Elijah was watching Julia go home with Amon of her own free will and it made him furious when he thought he'd calmed down.

The veins on his forehead became visible and he almost ran towards Amon but shivered; he still hasn't gotten over the trauma of being defeated by him.

'Calm down, I need to be calm... Now is not the right time.' Sighing and taking a deep breath, Elijah calmed down a little then went to the car that came for him and got in. Asking to stop in front of them, Elijah opened the window and said with a gentle smile to Julia, "Julia, I can take you..."

"No!" He was cut off before he finished speaking, and it wasn't Julia who denied it, but Maísa.

"Y-You...!" Elijah closed his mouth and glared at Maisa.

"What's wrong? Want to hit me? Do you think I'm afraid?" She said while hiding behind Amon and said pointing to the car, "Amon, electrocute that idiot!"

Amon didn't pull away from her even though she held his shirt from behind and just glanced at her briefly then turned back to Elijah, "Oh, okay."

Lightning flashed in his hand and Amon looked serious about wanting to attack.

Elijah panicked and yelled, "Drive, quick you hollow-headed idiot, drive!"

The car skidded...

"..."

"Amon, were you really going to attack?" Maisa was delighted, her beautiful greenish-brown eyes sparkled.

"Didn't you ask?" Amon raised his brows and returned to an indifferent expression as he resumed walking when she let go of his shirt a little shyly.

'If I ask, does he do it as simple as that?' Maisa couldn't believe it.

'Grandma said that if a woman close to me asks to hit another man, she must have a good reason...' Amon muttered in his mind as he remembered his grandmother's words.

And, seeing Elijah's reaction, he thinks he did the right thing, Elijah had to have malicious thoughts regarding Julia; he needs to protect whoever is close to him. This is also something he understands a little bit. His grandparents were always kind and protected the village...

"Amon, why did you do what Maisa asked?" Barbara was confused, she didn't expect this reaction from him, even Julia and Maísa wanted to know.

However, upon hearing Barbara's question, Maísa made a 'V' with her fingers to her and smiled brightly.

"Mm, she must have had a good reason to ask for it. And he's an idiot." Amon said in his cold, indifferent voice.

"But wouldn't you be in trouble if you had actually attacked him?" Julia sighed and hit her sister on the head, who almost screwed up.

"Mm?" Amon for the first time showed them a smile, but his smile was cold and extremely evil, "He started it. Or rather, I would have waited for him to attack me first."

After saying that, the coldness around him lessened and he started walking again.

Barbara shivered and her body hair stood up, she suddenly grabbed Amon's arm between her breasts and said excitedly, "Amon, you're so cool!"

Amon stopped walking again as he felt the closeness on his left arm. He glanced sideways at Barbara for an explanation of her actions.

"Mm?" Barbara, who was very excited, was not intimidated by him looking at her and just looked sideways at him as if waiting for him to say something.

"Hey, let go!" Shouted Julia and Maísa in unison.

"Why?" Barbara asked looking at them. Amon didn't ask, so why should she listen to them?

"Are you hurt?" Amon asked nonchalantly after thinking.

"No," Barbara answered honestly.

"Oh, so let go of me. Walk on your own." Amon said with the same indifference.

"Well, aren't you even flustered about it?" Barbara let go of his arm and asked with a small smile.

"Mm..." Amon thought and then replied indifferently, "Yes."

"... Yes, for you were flustered or yes, you weren't?" Barbara asked.

Maísa and Julia were silent, as they were also curious to know the answer.

"I had a biological reaction," Amon said this indifferently; as if speaking of something very random and continued walking.

Meanwhile, the three girls looked in a specific direction of his body and blushed.

"Ohhh..."

After hissing, the three girls followed in silence.

What they experienced now was hard to believe.

"The sky is so blue today~" Maisa muttered as she looked at the cloud-enclosed sky, it looks like it's going to rain.

"..." Amon felt awkward hearing this, but he remained indifferent. He managed to stay calm and steady, the biological reaction he had earlier has passed.

"I live over here." Barbara suddenly said, "Amon, and Julia, Maisa, see you tomorrow, bye, bye."

"Mm." Amon nodded and after he saw her turn into another street, he continued to walk alongside Julia and Maisa.

"Amon, is she your girlfriend?" Julia asked directly.

"No," Amon responded immediately. He didn't understand very well about romance, but he knew what dating meant, this was something he understood a little bit about. Although it doesn't have many references, he knew it was when two people like each other and decide to be together.

"Then why did you let her hold your arm?" Julia asked puffing out her pink cheeks.

"I thought she was hurt." Amon said nonchalantly, "She said I'm cool, and I thought it was in the sense of helping her walk."

"..."

"You are very dumb, Amon." Maisa sighed wearily.

"Oh, I've heard that before. A friend of mine said that a few years ago, saying that I'm so stupid that I can't understand human emotions." Amon somehow remembered Ariel who used to live in the village, but for personal reasons, they moved when Amon was 11 years old.

"And isn't it true?" Julia rolled her eyes at him.

"Yeah, I'm not good at it." He sighed and was indifferent, "I'm still not strong enough, I need more training..."

'How the hell did training become what I was talking about?!' Julia screamed in her mind but sighed. It was difficult, very difficult to make this hardhead understand some things.

Maisa laughed when she saw Julia's expression, but she also thought the same, since physical training is not going to teach him to understand someone else's emotions.

'But who is this friend he had, I'd like to meet them...' Julia wanted to know what kind of person would be able to befriend Amon. Although she knows he's not bad, it's hard to keep a conversation with him, or even wanting to go out and do something interesting, like karaoke, an amusement park, etc.
