Chapter 565: Stalker again
After a while, Jayden heard rustling of clothes from within the house so he guessed that Talia must have already woken up, and soon he saw Gavin walking towards him along with Gamma.
” Where is she? ” Gavin asked as soon as he arrived, Gamma had told him a few of the details on their way back.
” Inside, but make your choice carefully. ” Jayden said and then disappeared from there along with Gamma, leaving behind a pondering Gavin who stood there for a while and then entered the house, at first he just wanted to kill her but in the end, he couldn’t kill her with his own hands.
Without seeing what he did with Talia, Jayden walked back towards the inn while going back he ordered Gamma to tell the other two assassins to just return back to the inn after all the men had died.
He walked back leisurely observing his surroundings, he often saw people who were searching for the men who had been captured by Jayden, they were all from rich families but it would be almost impossible to link it to Jayden.
After walking around half the distance towards the inn, Jayden again felt someone gazing at him from the back but this time he didn’t turn around immediately instead he created a Dream Domain and then created a small illusion.
To whoever was staring at him it would look like Jayden was walking forward but in reality, he had stopped moving and had even turned around, but he was not confident that this trick would work.
A few seconds passed but no one showed up Jayden sighed and removed the Domain, and then he spoke:
” Why don’t you come out now? I know that it is you. ” While speaking he narrowed his eyes in the direction from which he was sensing the gaze.
” Oh, You sure are good at bluffing. ” A melodious female voice came from behind one of the walls, and then a beautiful woman with long white hair walked out and stood in front of him.
“…” Jayden stared at her face for a few seconds, he felt that she looked familiar but he was having a little difficulty remembering her, he felt some movements over his arm and after looking down at his arm he saw Eve.
‘ Is she telling me something? Wait, I think I remember her now- ‘ After thinking a little harder he was finally able to remember all the things that he had forgotten previously, and then he looked back at the woman who stood in front of him with a smile.
” Sorry, I think I got the wrong person, I don’t know anything about you at all. ” Jayden spoke with a serious expression and turned to leave.
” Wait!! Don’t lie, I’m sure you remember me now, aren’t you happy to see me? ” Hecate asked, walking in front of Jayden.
” But why should I be? Also tell me, how did you do all that? I mean, how were you able to make me forget everything, even the paper on which I had written some things became blank. ” Jayden questioned.
” Let’s talk at some other place, can we? It’s not that safe here. ” Hecate spoke and after taking Jayden’s hand she pulled him away, and since he was curious about it Jayden followed her.
They walked for a while and soon arrived near a crowded restaurant, its size was not big but a lot of people were eating there, and there were no empty seats, Jayden looked towards a group of men who were drinking wine and had no intention of stopping any time soon.
” Leave for now. ” Using Void skill, he ordered them and after paying their bill they simply walked out of there.
” So tell me what you have to say? ” Jayden asked, as soon as they took their seats.
” Let’s eat something first, I’m starving. But it would have been even great if you had cooked for me. ” Hecate said and gestured for a waiter to come, then she ordered a few things for both of them and sat back comfortably.
” Anyway, you really did destroy that man, I saw that he bit a few of his superiors, and even injured one of them seriously, he is done for. As for his wife, I think you gave her a reward instead of a punishment but do you want to know what happened after you left? ” Hecate asked.
” No, I don’t, why don’t you just answer my question instead? ” He asked, feeling a little annoyed now.
” Haa Why are you such a playboy? You should not get involved with too many women- ” Hecate spoke, as she slightly pouted.
But her words were interrupted as Jayden instantly stood up and told her: ” I think you are right, I’ll take your advice so let’s not meet again since that applies to you too, right? ”
” No no no, wait for a moment there is no problem with you being a playboy, I was just joking, instead I think you should have even more wives, find more ‘Beautiful’ and ‘Stronger’ wives, wouldn’t that be great? ” She asked, as she stood up and shook her head resolutely.
” Your food is here. ” The waiter brought their food and placed it on their table.
” Let’s talk while we eat. ” Hecate spoke and pulled his hand, Jayden sat down and began to eat while he waited for her to start.
” So you are curious about why you were not able to remember me right? ” She asked while taking a bite, after Jayden nodded she added:
” To be honest, I have a similar ability but I was not the one who did it, you can understand that it’s like a curse that whoever I meet will eventually forget me, that curse is placed on me by a witch. ” Hecate spoke, all the people around were so busy with their own talks that no one was paying attention to others.
Jayden couldn’t understand whether even these words were true or not but he just nodded, while maintaining a neutral expression on his face, after seeing his face Hecate sighed and continued:
” After you somehow killed that Empty beast, they- the people who are searching for me increased their search here thinking that I was the one to kill that beast, that’s why I have to move separately and staying in 3rd Zone isn’t easy without using my powers. ” She spoke while eating her food hungrily.
Jayden listened to her words, she had definitely revealed more things than she had done previously though she still hadn’t told him that she is a witch, so he knew that he still couldn’t trust her completely.
” Hey what’s with that ‘I can’t trust her yet’ type of expression you are showing, I’m telling the truth here, you must have already guessed that I was not using my strength, anyway this is a secret but I’m a witch too, a very strong witch. ” In the end, Hecate whispered while looking around.
” And why should I believe that? You could have died even at the hands of those demons and you are telling me you are a very strong witch? Heh, nice one. ” Jayden laughed at her, he decided to tease her now but it was impossible to fool her.
