81 Chapter 81 He doesn't understand it

Sullivan stopped thinking about the system now. He and Gon had arrived at the house.

Gon hurriedly went to Mito before shouting with excitement.

"Aunt Mito! I did it! I finally caught the king of the swamp!"

Mito who was teaching Hermione how to cook was surprised by the announcement. She knew that Gon would catch it sooner or later because she saw how Sullivan trained him.

She knew how much Gon had improved physically and mentally.

Looking at how dirty Gon was. She knew Sullivan must tell him to catch the fish inside the swamp rather than catching the fish with a fishing rod.

Sometimes she didn't know what Sullivan think. He was smart but sometimes He was an idiot, especially he didn't notice that his "sister" had a thing with him.

Hermione was sad and jealous that he ask her to marry him than his sister. Mito first was confused about how can sister thought of her brother like that. but everything was clear when she told her that they were just calling each other sister and brother even though they didn't share the same blood.

Hermione learned how to cook from her because Sullivan liked her cooking.

She could only sigh when he thought about Sullivan. He was bright and easy to approach like the sun in the sky. but be sure not to come too close because he could burn you into a crisp.

Only people He accepted could come closer to him. except for his sister, She, Gon, and Mikage were considered the ones He accepted.

Mito looked at the king of the swamp that Gon put on the floor with a sad face. Gon was like her son but now he would leave to become a hunter just like his father.

Fortunately, there was someone she could put her trust in. Sullivan and Hermione will come with him too. at least there was someone she could ask to take care of him.

"Yes, you did Gon."

Mito hugged Gon while smiling. She didn't bother that Gon was dirty now.

Gon smiled brightly and accept her hug.

Even though she didn't want him to go she still feel proud of him.

Today they will celebrate and said goodbye to each other for tomorrow they will be part.

The night arrived. Sullivan and Hermione sat on the roof together watching the moon. Today was the last day they will stay here.

Mito told them that If they ever want to return here. This place was their home too. Such a warm heart woman. It made Sullivan think about his mother. Who was her? Did She ever love him as Mito do to Gon?

Hermione knew what was inside his mind right now. Even though he was friendly and funny but inside the corner of his heart. there's a little boy who felt hurt and lonely.

Hermione pulled Sullivan closer and one arm hug him. He was small when she compared him to someone of his age.

Sullivan was a little bit startled but smiled afterward. He accepted her hug.

"Think of your mother again? Little Sol?"

"Not really"

"Don't be shy you know you could speak everything to me as I speak to you. We can help each other you know"

Sullivan heard her. He hesitated a little before speaking what was in his mind. She is someone he trusted with his heart. She didn't know this but out of everyone. She was the closest person to him. not even his own family.

His family, are very good people but He needed someone who could listen to him and not felt guilty. He didn't want them to think that they weren't giving him love enough.

Hermione could become someone close to him like a sibling or even his mother.

She usually nagged him this and that but he knew she meant well. She made him feel like he had never felt before.

He could say that he loved her but didn't know if she think the same as him. He didn't want to change the relationship they had right now.

He heard many people fail miserably when they changed their relationship.

He didn't know what was in his mind. He accepted to be Jean's boyfriend because she begged him and he accepted her because he was curious.

He could say that he liked her but not to the point of love. She is his friend before becoming his girlfriend. He still doesn't understand anything about love.

Maybe he needed time to comprehend it. and when He understands it. He might found the solution he faced right now.

Jean knew about this too. He had already told her everything. He doesn't like lying. Jean who should be angry at him smile at him beautifully and told him that.

Whichever choice he make she would stick with him. Don't ever think that he could escape from her even the deepest of hell could not make them parts…

He didn't know what to say he could only smile and let nature take its course. Jean was scary but he knew she would never let him go. but that's okay maybe.

Sullivan talked to Hermione till the morning come. with Troll bloodline and Nephilim bloodline, they didn't need to sleep.

'Sleeping is for the weak, and weakness disgusted me'

Sullivan watched the sunset and sunrise together with Hermione.
