《My Magical System 》Chapter 53: Sleepless...
Advertisement
Morning arrived in the blink of an eye.
But unfortunately, that was not the case to Yeman.
He was not able to fall asleep even for a bit, because his mind has a lot to think of.
The sky that could be seen up high was already bright. But below the cliff, the surrounding still dim.
He was lying down staring to the sky, wondering about the current time. Since he could not predict while in this kind of limited space to view.
"Uhmmmmp..."
He heard the morning habit from someone in good slept. Stretching her whole body in relaxing and comforting while stimulating a morning yawn at the same time.
Yeman gulped.
He knows this was it. Wondering what she might think after she witnessed how her dressing had changed.
The truth was. Yeman failed to fell asleep because of the very reason on how he would going to explain this to her if ever she questioned him.
He closed his eyes as to act that he was still sleeping but the eyebags on his eyes was distinguishable.
Although it was still useless to act this way, at least he could buy a little more time to himself and to think of a better idea or solution.
What if she directly assumed that he took advantage of her? Judging the way she dresses right now, it was easy to misunderstand the situation and point him as the violator.
Regardless, he wishes that she had the memory of what had happened yesterday noon. And if not, he wishes that she believed him at least.
It was a pain in the ass. He should have just went back with her. Then explained what had really happened to the three guys. Maybe it was a better idea than this.
He wondered if what would Leo think about it. Weren't Mina like that guy?

For Yeman, this was one of the most difficult situations he found himself involved in.
After realizing that he could not fall asleep no matter what he did, and it was useless now since it was already morning, he decided to open his eyes and twisted his head towards her— slowly like a robot.
...Then,
"Heh—" he unconsciously let out an utter.
His pulse abruptly raised. He felt nervous and lost for words to say.
She was staring at him while lying in a side view inside the sleeping bag he bought. In her eyes...he could feel that she have many questions.
Yeman's eyes blinked twice. Scanning for words inside his mind. Unfortunately, he failed. He failed to find words.
Mina could only vaguely remember a thing. She doesn't have any idea of why she was sleeping in this place.
But seeing him sleeping about 7 - 8 meters away to her left, she ended up staring at his sleeping face.
Even though she noticed him slowly twisting his head to her direction, she continued staring at him.
When their eyes met, Mina was flustered and feel a heat rushing to her face. But, she needed to say something.
First, "G-Good morning," she greeted him.
He heard her greeted him. But for Yeman, It was literally good and bad at the same time.
Regardless, he needed to act cool to avoid being suspicious.
"...Mhm, good morning too..." (good job!) he thought after he replied.
Then, Mina asked him if where they were at the moment...and what happened yesterday.
|Is she mad? Or what?| He questioned himself.
|Anyway, what she meant by her question of what happened?|
"Uhm, n-nothing happened," he replied again with furrowed brows.
"I-I mean, w-why we ended up sleeping in here? And what time is now?" she followed question after question.

He sighed. Regardless, he had to tell her the truth.
Yeman explained to her what had happened and how she lost control of herself. But he kept the part where she jumped on him and almost did something unusual.
Mina slowly glances at her clothes.
Her face instantly turned red after realizing that she was wearing new clothes and that her old one had been torn by her! She stared at him with a face that wanted to question.
Of course, Yeman understood what kind of question her staring had. She wanted to ask him if he saw it.
With a face that wanted to scream and cry, Mina's corner of the eye has formed beads of tears.
"This is it!" He uttered.
Though she wanted to cry for the embarrassment, seeing his flustered face made her felt happy for some reason. Not just that, he stayed with her overnight without taking advantage.
At this thought, Mina secretly smiled while unconsciously hugging the new shirt she was wearing.
She doesn't know how he got this shirt, but she had already witnessed more things about him which no one knows yet, except for the two of them.
A warm smile was written on her face as she silently followed his back. They were walking towards the camp.
Of course, Mina was doubtful of him, of all the unnatural things he did. Like for example, taming that beast? Or killing them in a far and from a higher place.
She doesn't know how powerful he was at the moment. But she was happy for him. She doesn't know why, but she just felt it for an unknown reason.
She also was happy for herself. Because she was able to achieve another breakthrough!
Right now, her rank was Bronze-Grade II Assassin. And she also was able to learn another skill.
She could feel became stronger. Even her hearing had improved. Her eyesight became clearer and could see much farther. Her perception, strength, speed...and all other aspects of her had improved. Though the pay of it was her bosom being slightly seen by this guy in front of her.
But she let him for now. Because she could feel from his eyebags that he did not manage to sleep.
After arriving at the camp, the three older guys were stunned seeing the two.
They were doubtful of what had happened to these youngsters. In their minds... 'did they really do that thing?'
Their thinking was too obvious that it was showing on their faces.
Yeman scratches his face while showing a troubled smile.
Mina's face, on the other hand, had turned as red as tomatoes while shouting "You are mistaken! We ddddd-did nothing!!!!!!"
Yeman yawn...
|I'm sleepy| Good thing that he chooses to buy the shirt that doesn't look too different from the dress of people wearing in this world.
Days had steadily passed...
