No Longer Prey

Revelation

Revelation

Dec 29, 2021



"Are you crazy!? Why didn't you react?" He grabbed her shoulders, distressed "...or was my illusion that bad?" He released her.

"It was very realistic. But I knew you wouldn't hurt me." 

"What makes you so sure?" He gave her an incredulous look.

"Logic, Kyro. It was an illusion and we're mali." She said mildly angered by his incredulity.

"I could find a way to hurt you without getting affected!" He pointed at her trying to defend his previous argument.

"Well, there is one. If you kill me in one blow, malumi won't be activated." She was unconcerned about what he might do with this information.

"Shouldn't you hide this from me?" He crossed his arms again.

"You won't do it, you're kind hearted." She affirmed it as if it was an unquestionable truth.


"... I'm not." He was devastated. She wasn't intimidated by him even after his attempt to scare her. It'll be impossible for her to take him seriously, she'll wound up viewing him as an overgrown baby that still can't fetch for himself. A burden that she'll eventually get rid of.


"Accept that you're a good fox." 

"Well, Jiya, it just so happens that foxes shouldn't be good. I'll be subjected to mockery." He shrugged.

"What matters is how you see yourself." She playfully poked his nose.

"So I should get a new pair of eyes or a mirror, oh sapient one?" He feigned devotion.

"For your case, I think a confidence boost would do. Besides, whenever you get afraid, remember..."  

She leaned in to whisper something apparently confidential. This abashing proximity had his face heating up, he wanted to break free from her kind gaze, but he felt helplessly drawn to it. 

"We are no longer prey." His eyes glinted at that statement, her captivating smile bewitched him.

Those were the words he wanted to hear the most and they came from someone he secretly admired. In a matter of seconds, he was swayed. Sincerely, she was like the cunning fox he aspired to become.


"How come you're all I wished to be?" He put his head down to hide the tears that couldn't be suppressed anymore. 


"You don't have to be a copy of anyone, you can become a better you." She stroked his hair, incentivizing him to cry his heart out.



I may be encouraging him, although whether he changes or not is all up to him... I still can support him.


She purposefully offended him to see for herself if his powers were lacking or his judgement was clouded by his loathing. The latter is veridical yet her means to uncover it weren't nice.

Raised to be calm, logical, plus independent. Such commendable qualities led her to be showered with praise. Ergo generated her sublime self-reliance.

Her self-esteem is off the charts, it's not necessarily bad. Nonetheless, sometimes it can be an issue for misleading her into thinking she's undefeatable.
