This is High in Pursuit: Another Story Kang Jae Woon is the youngest prosecutor in his department. With his handsome appearance, outstanding achievement, and powerful family background, he is being admired and envied at the same time by many people. One day, his best friend, Han Ryan is murdered by a serial killer and Jae Woon felt his world is crumbling down. Due to his excessive sadness, Jae Woon drowns himself in alcohol at his house, alone. He drunk and snacking food until his body suddenly convulsed in an allergic reaction. "Shit! Who the fuck put almonds in my snack?! I clearly remind the salesgirl to not put any almond in my baggage! Damn it! Where is my medicine?!" As he groping around in agony, searching for his precious medicine, Jae Woon felt his body plopped on the bed as his consciousness faded and darkness is embracing his body. How miserable. To think I would die because of a stupid almond...Ryan will be laughing when he heard this. ------ "Wake up, you pig!" A harsh voice is jolted him away from his sleeping state. At the same time, his body is being drenched by a bucket of smelly water. "Since you're a pig, you didn't mind to bathe in poop, right?" Mocking waves of laughter are resounding in the dark, small room. Three boys and one girl are looking down at him with disgusted expressions plastered on their faces. One of the boys is holding an empty bucket. "Eww...so disgusting!" The cute girl said in an arrogant tone. "Fatty, it's time to do your chores! Wake up or I will ask my mother to whip your body again!" Jae Woon is dumbfounded. Wha...? Where is he? No, no, no. Where is this? Who are these pompous brats?! How dare they throw...Jae Woon suddenly felt that something is wrong with his body. He had difficulty moving around and he felt extremely sluggish. What the fuck is this?! Since when his slender and sturdy body changed into a piggy in just one night?! This is a work of fiction. Just so you know, the cover photo is not mine.

6. Meeting The Female Lead-Part Final

"Oh, My Mighty Goddess, please hear my humble prayer and help this poor soul. Lift the curse that had been bounded him and save him from this damnation cycle. May you bless his life with your grace." Seiran muttered a prayer whilst closing her eyes in concentration. A bead of sweat is rolling down from her forehead as she is using a large amount of her inner energy to conjure a high-level healing spell, to counter the ancient curse in Jae Woon's body.

At the same time, Jae Woon reluctantly swallowed the pill inside his mouth. As soon as the pill is dissolved, a chain of reactions is taking place.

Hazy, black smoke is seeping out from his body along with a thick, foul odor. A rotten stench is wafting in the air, that it's almost making Jae Woon vomit on the spot. He managed to hold his bile though as he glances at the beautiful girl beside him. Her concentration sure deserved some applause as the rotten smell didn't bother her even the slightest bit. He is impressed by her determination to heal him.

Thirty minutes had passed and both of them finally collapsed on the ground, feeling helpless as extreme exhaustion took a toll on their sweaty bodies. The golden light dissipates into thin air.

"Ah, I forgot the side effect..." Seiran sighed as her sight is blurring. The last thing she saw is a tall and handsome male, with flawless skin, fainting beside her. "Daddy, husband sure is a handsome man." She giggles as the thought is fleeting away along with her own consciousness. Darkness soon takes place.

Mochi blinked its eyes. Then, a sudden realization is flashed by its mind.

(I should probably remind the host to find a place to hide before they performed the healing ritual. Hmm... Whatever. This mighty system will just put a barrier around you guys. No one will saw you as long as you are inside.)

---------

Seiran had the most comfortable sleep right now. A warm, and sturdy chest is hugging her small body from behind and she instinctively turned around, before burying her face into the crook of the person's neck. She rubbed her face on the smooth and sturdy chest, whilst inhaling the heavenly scent.

A manly scent of sandalwood and fresh mint are wafting into her nose, and she sighed in contentment as the smell is lulling her back to her most comfortable sleep. A strong arm circling around her thin waist and pulling their bodies impossibly closer. Seiran hummed in delight.

"Still want to continue your sleep, my dear Seiran?" A deep baritone voice is whispering in her ears, and warm breath grazing over the sensitive part of her body, that is her neck. Her neck instantly turned bright red.

Hmm? A male voice? Whose voice is that? Seiran mentally thought. Sluggish, exhausted, and she is still feeling the aftereffect of using high-level healing magic, Seiran lazily opened her heavy eyelids.

"Good evening." Jae Woon chuckles as he saw the dumbfounded expression on her beautiful face. Looking closely at this distance, he is mesmerized by her long, and thick eyelashes that fluttered adorably at him. And, her almond-like eyes shone in the dark, as her beautiful hazel orbs are being reflected by moonlight.

It's taken several minutes before Seiran finally realized their awkward position. Her face felt hotter than a molten iron. She is sleeping in Danial's embrace for god know how long?! Seiran, aren't you ashamed of your action?! Not only that, she also shamelessly rubbed her face on Danial's chest just now! Oh my god!

"I...I'm sorry!" Feeling flustered, she tried to part away from Danial.

Instead of loosening his hold though, Danial tightens his embrace around her body. He left a trail of tender kisses from the top of Seiran's head until he reached the tip of her pointy nose. His lips lingered around Seiran's lips.

"Can we, stay like this for a while?" He asked for her permission. "Will you allowed me to hold you like this, for a while, Seiran?"

Seiran lifted her face. Their eyes coincidentally meeting one another. With a smile on her face, she nodded.

"Hold me, as long as you need me." She said. "Danial, I swear to devote my body, my love, and my life only to you. Use me however you like. Just please, promise me this one thing?"

"What is it?"

Seiran lifted her right hand and hesitantly touched Jae Woon's left cheek. She tucked his wild long curl behind his ears. Unexpectedly, once his curse is lifted, his hair grew longer than she anticipated, and his skin becomes slightly tanned. He resembles the late Queen more than the Emperor himself.

"Please don't abandon me, don't reject me and please let me keep loving you even if you no longer feel the same feeling like me," Seiran uttered these words with a shaky voice. She didn't want to felt the painful feeling of rejection anymore. The hopelessness and dismay she had experienced might ruin her completely. Once is enough. "Please don't reject me, Danny."

Jae Woon engulfed her small, trembling hand with his own.

"Such a small wish, if I cannot grant it, then, I am not qualified to earn your love, my dear Ran."

"You have a sweat mouth, my prince."

"I'm not. You're the first woman I ever uttered such an embarrassing line to. Also, don't call me that. Call me by my name."

Seiran snuggles herself into Jae Woon's warm embrace. She closed her eyes and enjoying this blissful moment together with her beloved.

"Yes, yes, I will call you Danny. This name is only reserved for me. Do not let other girls call you by that name. Or else..."

"What?"

"I cripple your family jewel for being a lecherous bastard."

Jae Woon's face turned dread the moment Seiran said those words.

"You're cruel."

"No. I'm possessive." Seiran replied.

Lady Liliane opened her front door as she heard a soft knocking sound on it.

As soon as she opened them, an unfamiliar man is standing out there with her daughter in his arms. The male had long and curl silver hair that surpassed his broad shoulder. He is tall, approximately six feet, with long and slender legs. A pair of piercing brown eyes are staring at her daughter with visible love and adoration. His skin is a bit tan, but, flawless. He looks familiar to her, and at the same time, he is not.

"Who are you...?" She asked with a frown. "And why is my daughter..."

"Good morning, Liliane." His deep and husky voice is sending chills on Lady Liliane's spine. The authoritative vibe he owned proved that he is not an ordinary person.

"Hello...?"

"I need to talk with you and Lona. Is she here?"

"You know Lona?"

The male chuckles.

"Of course I know her. The two of you are my mother's friends."

Her eyes widen. Lady Liliane's knee immediately dropped onto the floor as she bowed her head in haste.

"My Imperial Prince! Forgive my rudeness!"

Jae Woon scanned his surroundings.

"Lona, is she not here?"

Lady Liliane still bowing her head, answered in a timid voice.

"She is exploring the world. There are rumors about Queen Carina's murderer is seen in the neighboring country. She went there to check."

"By the way, when will you invite me inside? Until when will I stayed outside, standing like a sore thumb while holding your sleeping daughter?"

Lady Liliane is startled as she heard the displeasure tone in Jae Woon's voice.

"Forgive me, Sire! Please come inside!"

Jae Woon entered the mansion as soon as he received the house owner's permission. Rather than walking, he teleported directly into Seiran's room.

Contrary to her tough nature, her room is a normal adolescent girl's room. Decorated lavishly with expensive stuff, her room is painted in white, while the curtain, the blanket, the pillow sheet, and the sofa were in soft pink color. A bundle of soft and fluffy toys like teddy bears is put on her bed.

Jae Woon tucked Seiran in her bed. He kissed her forehead lovingly before teleported again to the living room, as Lady Liliane is nervously waiting for his arrival there.
