39 Ch. 36

Seeing that she finally agreed, The Brightest Fragment of Brilliant Light nodded at her while at the same time, receiving news from The Shining Fragment of Brilliant Light that Sung Il-Hwan agreed to the proposal and has became his Vessel.

Turning his head towards Kanae, "I'm afraid this is as far as we could talk, but before I go, I will remind you that you'll have an additional ally in a decade. Farewell mortal." Having said that, The Brightest Fragment of Brilliant Light disappeared in a flash of light.

Meanwhile, Kanae could feel her growing strength especially, she has a feeling that she could extend her reach and move things with her mind.

Deciding to try it, she extended her hand forward, and the boulder that is resting was lifted upward, while Kanae tried to move it around and it did.

A few seconds later, she felt a bit exhausted since not only is she exhausted from the battles earlier but she directly used a skill that she just received without training in it.

"Guess, I'll train late-"

Kanae didn't manage to finish her sentence when the wall behind her was suddenly blasted away and a frowning Kenji walked inside and a sigh of relief came out of his mouth at seeing Kanae alive.

Seeing Kenji, Kanae also sighs in relief, and finally, she felt embarrassed since she just went into an S-rank dungeon without informing her boyfriend.

"I-I'm sorry, I-."

When she was about to apologize, Kenji suddenly, embraced her and lifted her.

"We'll talk about this later, but first, let's take you to a healer."

Kenji said and before she knew it, they both blasted out of the ceiling, and while up in the air, Kanae could see the whole island, with its full beauty if it wasn't for the ants swarming it.

Earlier, Kenji didn't finish the ants since his priority is Kanae since he saw that she was injured when he used his x-ray to find her.

Soon, they finally reached their home and at the front door is a worried Shina and Hana while Chikashi was sagely nodding his head before giving Kenji a salute.

Kenji decided to not visit the hospital for hunters instead, he went for his father since he is a healer, a much more potent one.

After landing, he first went inside the mansion and gently laid Kanae on the couch, and finally, let his father do his job.

Chikashi also went inside, while holding a glowing green grimoire and soon, Kanae was enveloped in a green light before it wears off, revealing Kanae without a scratch.

Kenji thanked his father, while Shina immediately went to Kanae's side and reprimanded her.

Meanwhile, Kanae just kept quiet since she felt that she deserved this since going inside a very dangerous dungeon alone that even S-rank hunters can't handle without allies is nothing but a death wish.

It was them that, Kanae finally realized the dumb action that could cause her, her life, and probably even make her close ones sad and Kenji might become depressed.

While at the same time, she felt no regret coming alone since not only did she learn her lesson, but also because she received a power that is beyond her imagination.

If she's gonna compare her strength from before and after, then she's ten times more stronger than her past self.

If her speed before could outrun a jet, then her speed now could outrun a speeding bullet.

While her strength also increased but if compared to Hana, then she falls quite a bit.

After Shina was done reprimanding her, it was Hana's time to lecture her.

After another five minutes of an earful, Hana was finally done but it was then she noticed a familiar power inside her.

When she squinted her eyes to take a close look, she was shocked by what she found and decided to talk with her husband about this.

After Hana, it was finally Kenji's time. Kanae just looked at Kenji and saw Kenji gesturing for her to come with him back to their home.

After saying their goodbyes, and sagely advice from Chikashi to Kenji. Kenji flew away with Kanae on his back.

On their way back home, they both just kept quiet making Kanae nervous.

In an instant, they finally arrived back home, after gently landing, Kenji brought Kanae to their bedroom and gently laid her down on the bed.

Kanae was both curious and afraid of what was happening. Curious, because she was curious on why Kenji had to bring her to their bedroom while she was afraid that Kenji might be mad at her.

While she was deep thinking, Kenji unknowingly hugged her from behind, shocking her while at the same time, making her blush furiously.

No matter how many times they cuddle or hug, Kanae was still embarrassed by this.

Kenji, who was hugging her from behind, gently placed his face to her nape, taking a sniff of her scent.

When Kanae noticed what he was doing, it was already too late, then suddenly, a moan came out of her mouth.

"Hnn~~"

Kanae widened her eyes before using her hands to close her mouth while breathing heavily. She could also hear Kenji chuckling from her nape.

Kanae pouted and said, "Aren't you supposed to be mad at me?!"

Hearing what she said, Kenji just shook his head and said, "I'm not mad, I'm just a bit disappointed that you didn't even inform me about what you just did. It's not like I'm gonna stop you."

Kanae just bowed her head in sadness, she didn't mean it to happen like this. When she first heard about the dungeon, she was determined to clear it and make her boyfriend proud.

But instead, not only she was on the verge of death, but she also makes her boyfriend disappointed in her.

"I'm sorry, I-."

When she was apologizing, Kenji's next word stops her.

"But I'm proud of you. If other hunters were in your situation, they'd lose hope and just left themselves there to rot, but you didn't, instead, you overcome your fear and faced the challenges head-on."

Kenji then, caressed her hair while tears were falling from her eyes.

She was happy, happy that her boyfriend was also proud of her.

All she ever wanted was to be equal to Kenji. And now with her strength, she could probably do it.

"Not only that, but I could sense that you also get stronger. I don't know what happened there nor I'm gonna pry but at least promise me that you'll never do this again."

Kenji was shocked when he sensed Kanae's strength, perhaps when they spar again, she could provide him a challenge.

Kanae nodded her head when she heard his words, she expected that Kenji will sooner notice her increased strength.

Then a thought struck her, maybe she could tell Kenji about her encounter with the Rulers earlier, after all, the Brightest Fragment of Brilliant Light didn't say anything about not telling someone about her encounter.
