To kill an emperor (7)

time passed as Mars gently held Mary and stroked her back as she cried Mars knew that the burden that had just been lifted from her shoulders was a huge one and that she needed time to fully comprehend that she was finally cured of her curse

'what kind of person curses a young child with this kind of curse I wonder..?'

a cold light flashed though Mars' eyes, if he knew he would add them to his to-be-killed list and maybe even moved them above the emperor on the list

'well anyways... what to do now..? I need my sword so maybe I should bring Mary back to Green river?'

"Mars I'm okay now..."

"are you sure?"

Mary gave a small nod, her eyes were a little red from crying but they seemed to be glowing brighter than ever before then she gave a sweet smile

"yes I'm sure"

"okay then.... do you want to stop by my home real quick?"

"eh..? Mars you have a house here in the city?"

"not quite"

Mary tilted her head to the side and Mars gave a sigh

"it's a yes or no question"

"then yes"
