Respawn

Chapter 86: Before I Leave

I may not be as wealthy as you, but I am confident that I can treat her better than you can. I'll just remain silent for the time being and let things unfold as they will. "Darius, I believe you should tone down your tone and demeanor. Why are you accusing him of liking Katsumi despite the fact that he has no affections for her? " Bara inquired. My feelings for Katsumi are killing me on the inside. You have no clue how ashamed I am that I am feeling this way when I know I shouldn't be. I recently lost my wife, and I believe it is too soon for me to fall in love once more. I guess love just shows up out of nowhere and is uncontrollable. I can't seem to get rid of this sensation, and it grows more and stronger with each passing day.

"You are unable to respond to my questions. Takahashi? Is it possible that I am correct? Katsumi is already taken, so take a step back "he stated He's bragging about Katsumi, which upsets me. I wish I could use my bow and arrow to take this guy's head off. "Why are you remaining silent? You're at a loss for words? "He inquired. I'm simply trying to maintain my cool because I don't want to offend her. He began grabbing my shirt, and I lost control of my rage. "So, you like her a lot, huh?" he exclaimed. I began to grasp his shirt and give him a death gaze. You can't terrify me like that, and I want you to know that you won't be able to scare me like that. Right now, I can't stop liking Katsumi.

Katsumi didn't shove the two of us apart this time; instead, she pushed me away from Darius. "Takahashi, what's the matter with you? You're not the Takahashi I'm familiar with. Why are you acting so strangely? Darius deserves your respect. He is the lover of your master. Respect one another! "She gave the order. I am not the one who is acting inappropriately in this situation. It is the two of them who are acting inappropriately. "If that's what you want, I'll do as you say. I have no idea what you're talking about, Katsumi. It's quite difficult for me to comprehend you. Maybe I'm just making assumptions about our relationship and I should stop thinking about you. I'm not sure if you're just toying with my emotions. You didn't even tell me you had a boyfriend "I stated.

"Takahashi Please accept my apologies, but now is not the time to tell you about this "she stated She believes that now is not the appropriate moment to tell me about these matters. If she believes it, I'm curious as to when the right time is for her. "You are telling me that you don't think you should tell me this time, or that you don't intend to tell me at all. Those things are different, but they all serve the same purpose: to prevent me from knowing what's going on "I stated. This relationship is really messed up. I feel like I'm being used by her. "I'm sorry, but I'm no longer able to comprehend you. I just want to get away from you, and I wish I could, but I can't. Right now, all I want to do is close my mouth and stop talking "I stated

"Please give me a chance to speak first. Look, we can't talk about the issues you're bringing up right now. Those topics should be discussed discreetly at a location where just the two of us are present. As you can see, there are other people present. Please bear with me for the time being "she stated She is only concerned because there are people present. She is only concerned with her image and profile in the eyes of others around her. These individuals have no idea why I'm acting this way. She isn't taking me seriously. She is adamant that no one knows about us. She is clearly embarrassed that other people will learn that a superior girl like her is having an unexplained relationship with someone like me.

"I'll do it if that's what you want. I'm done. I just want to retire to my room and rest for a while. Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience I have caused here. Please accept my apologies if I have to interrupt the two of you. I'll just go right now and return to my room "I stated. I bow to them and take a step back to avoid colliding with them. "Not yet, Takahashi. Make no apologies. Okay, we'll discuss those topics. Please be patient. All I have to do now is wait until the proper moment. I know you're desperate for answers right now, and you're shocked to learn that I already have a companion. I apologize sincerely "she stated I bow to her once again as I glance at her. "You are not required to apologize. You don't have to apologize to your subordinate simply because of that "I stated.

"It is not your responsibility to inform me of such matters, and I should not interfere with your judgments in this manner. I am aware of my role and significance in your life. Please don't take what I said earlier seriously because I was overcome by emotion. Please don't misinterpret my actions; I'm merely performing my duty to safeguard and secure you. Thank you, and I'll leave immediately "I stated. I turned away from them and returned to my room. As I move away, they remain quiet. I was holding back my emotions as soon as I turned away from them since I didn't want them to see me cry. I have to be strong, and I can't show them how much pain I'm in. I walked into my room and shut the door.

My eyes began to well up with tears. I'm always wiping my tears away from my cheeks. It's fine; I'm not going to wipe these tears away. It's okay if you cry since no one will see you. Let everything out. It's okay to cry now and then. When I'm feeling very horrible on the inside, I can't help but cry. I just sit on the floor and cry while hugging my thighs. Nobody will hear me cry, and I am at ease when I am able to do so. This is the only method for me to express my feelings. I spend the entire day in my room. I didn't eat my meals out since I lacked the guts to face them. Katsumi already has a lover, and I can't stay here because I don't want to be the source of Darius's hesitation to marry.

I'll have to make a difficult decision. I'm not sure whether it's the finest decision I could make for myself, but I know it'll be the best for us. Before I carry out my plan, I need to speak with Katsumi. I put all of my clothes in my virtual inventory and double-check that everything is there. Tomorrow is the day when I'll ask her the question I've been pondering. I need to rest and sleep now so that I can prepare for tomorrow. I sleep well and get plenty of rest. The next morning arrived, and although it was still early, I had to depart. I stepped out of my room and into Katsumi's. I climb into her room's balcony and find that she is still sleeping. Fortunately, her balcony door is unlocked.

While she is still sleeping, I stare at her for a minute. Even when she is sleeping, she is a stunning creature. It's now morning, and I expect she'll be up in a matter of minutes. I conjure up a piece of paper and a pencil. I scribble a note in the newspaper telling her to meet me in the garden as soon as she wakes up. I slid the note into her palm. I have to leave her room right now because I can't be seen inside. Before I leave her room, I take one last glance at her. But there's something I'd like to do before I leave. Before I go, I kiss her on the forehead. I slam the door to her balcony shut and dash outdoors. Nobody notices me walking into Katsumi's room.

I went to the garden to await her arrival. We'll be safe in the garden, and no one will realize we're conversing. Katsumi has arrived after 30 minutes. It appears that she is still getting ready before coming here. "Hello, my apologies for yesterday. Please accept my apologies. I'm just curious as to why you'd like to speak with me so early in the morning. Do you want to say something significant to me? ", she enquired. I can't look her in the eyes because it makes me feel like I'm about to cry. "I'd want to resign as your gold knight, and if you don't mind, I'll leave this mansion today. Allow my wishes to be fulfilled. Right now, I desperately want to resign, "I stated.

"Are you going to resign? You are unable to quit at this time. I'm not sure why you want to leave. Are you resigning as a result of yesterday's events? You can't do it since I've already given you the gold knight's power, which can't be reversed "she stated Right now, all I want to do is leave. For Darius' and her sake, I can't stay here any longer. "I understand that you cannot take the power away from me, but you don't need to be concerned because this power will only stay in me for a few days because it is only supposed to last a month. I will pay for the days that I have left to exercise this power; just give me time and a chance to make money, and I will pay for it "I stated.

"Please, Takahashi, pay attention to what I'm saying. You can't leave and you can't quit. That is clear. You are staying here since you do not have a place to stay. You are unable to leave "she stated When I look her in the eyes, I feel as if tears are going to pour from my eyes. "Katsumi, I don't want to get in the way of your plans to marry a man. I won't be able to stay here much longer, especially once you marry Darius. I don't want to look at you and continue to love you while it's against the law. Katsumi, staying here feels so terrible since I have feelings for you. I'm not sure why I'm reacting this way toward you, but things just happen. Katsumi, you may not have noticed, but I love you," I said.
