Leave Me Alone, Heroines!-208 Chapter 208

Just like that, Acht spent the noon with the village people. They ate together and he was able to meet most of them. There were some people that were still not that keen on talking with him but he didn't care much about it.

After eating, he excused himself and went back to his house. He wanted to take a shower and sleep, then he could maybe leave the village to discover the area.

He liked this place from first sight so he was eager to roam it alone and enjoy nature in its most fascinating form.

'Hm?' As he walked back to the house, he felt a small chill down his spine. It wasn't that of danger or maybe threat but more of someone who was eyeing him.

His sharp eyes looked back but he couldn't see anyone. So, with that in mind, he continued walking as if he didn't sense anyone's presence.

The journey back was quiet but was also slightly tense as the stalker kept persistently following him.

'They don't have an aura which means they aren't awakeners. That's good at least.' He thought to himself as he didn't bother with the matter that much. It may've been just a curious child or a person he didn't meet.

Soon, Acht reached his house and entered, he kept an eye on the person that was following him just in case.

He then took a long shower, filled the bathtub, and sat down there to relax his muscles.

The war water was such a soothing thing to experience, it was indeed something that is very addictive to those who are especially moving a lot constantly like Acht.

Then, after that, he wore a bathrobe and went out of the bath to the bedroom. There, he looked around him for a moment before speaking.

"What are you doing…Mia?" He said confusedly as he looked inside the wardrobe.

No one answered so he smiled slightly and spoke loudly as if he was talking to himself.

"Oh, man. I hate this wardrobe, I want to throw it away. Or maybe I could get a hammer and destroy it.

When Mia heard these words, she tensed slightly and then decided to get out of her hiding.

"How did you find me?" She asked.

"You suck at hiding." He replied casually.

Then, with a slightly serious look, he asked.

"Now, what are you doing, stalking me like that?"

His eyes made her even more nervous and hesitant to answer but then sighed and said.

"You…Why are you hiding your face?" She asked.

Acht tilted his head and muttered.

"Hiding my face?"

Mia nodded and continued.

"Yes. For a certain reason, I can see through your disguise and I can tell this is not your real face." She replied.

Acht was genuinely surprised by her words. Mia wasn't an awakener so how was she able to discover this?

"What are you talking about?" Acht said with a confused look, obviously acting.

He can't just admit that he wasn't what he introduced himself to be.

"How about I tell every one to hear about your little secret? Then you might as well start searching for another place to live from the first day." She said as she crossed her arms.

'Sigh, what a pain in the ass. It's not that big of a problem though.' He thought to himself.

He sat down on the couch and said.

"I didn't want anyone to know…but since you insisted then I have no other way of going about this. My secret is…I'm too handsome." He said as he looked at her with a serious look.

Silence. For a good 5 seconds, Mia kept looking at him blankly. Then…

"Hahahahahhahah!!!! What? This is so funny!" She exploded in laughter as she fell down, tossing around on the ground while holding her stomach.

Acht watched her and barely said anything. She could laugh all she wanted.

"I am not joking though."

"Hahaha! You are so funny, Cero. She said as she laid wiped tears from her face. She had laughed to the point where her face was flushed red adding even more cuteness to her appearance.

"Wanna take a look? But promise me to not tell anyone." He asked.

"Yes." She responded.

Acht then deactivated the soul artifact he was using, revealing his real face.

The moment Mia took a glance at him, she froze in her place. Her eyes widened and her mouth was agape. In a moment, she turned into a statue.

Acht stood up and approached her before waving his hand slightly in front of her eyes.

"Oii! Are you ok?" He asked.

Immediately, as if triggered by something, Mia crouched back with an embarrassed look. It was as if she was looking at a monster…A dangerous monster.

"H-How…" she muttered as her mouth opened and closed multiple times.

"I told you. This face of mine created many problems for me so I hid it. Being way too handsome is a curse indeed."

'Luckily, no one here knows my face. Leislet made sure to choose an isolated place where news doesn't come that often.' He thought to himself.

"No no no no! This isn't even handsome. This is borderline scary. You are scary!!" She shouted as she stood up again.

"Scary? I didn't do anything though."

"Hurry up and hide that!!" She shouted again.

Acht nodded his head and used the souk artifact again to hide his face. Immediately, he returned to the plain look he used before.

"Fuuh." Mia exhaled a long breath as her red face started getting back to normal.

He then asked her.

"Now that I told you my secret. You tell me yours. How are you able to see through my disguise? You aren't an awakener after all." He said.

"..It's not really a secret. Since I was born, my eyes could see many things normal people can't see. I don't know how or why but it somehow works like that."

"What things can you see?" He asked.

"I can basically see through walls if I tried to. I could also see up to 10 kilometers away from me. And I also could see through disguises." She said,

"See through disguises, huh." He fell in deep thought from her words.

He had never heard of such a power before. Maybe it was a normal talent or maybe it was one of a kind. He needs to research more about it.

"Do you know anything about this?"

"No…not really. But I can see if I can find anything."

"Oh…thank you. I would appreciate that." He said calmly.

Then, with a small cough, he added.

"Now…if you don't mind. I need to change my clothes."

Mia finally saw that he was only wearing a bathrobe and immediately apologizes before quitting the house quickly.

Acht could only sigh at her weird yet funny behavior before changing his clothes.

He wanted to go out to roam the area but decided not to. He felt slightly tired so he laid down on the bed and drifted into a deep sleep.

The past week was hectic since he had to keep on moving constantly until Leislet was able to find this place for him.

Now, he could finally sleep peacefully without fear of someone attacking him.

Hours passed and the afternoon turned into a dark night and the night also passed turning into a sunny morning. f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮

Acht's eyes finally started opening. He didn't feel any discomfort even though he slept for almost 20 hours straight.

'Hm? Why is there something heavy on my chest?' He thought as his eyes were finally fully open and he could see the abnormality.

What welcomed him first was two massive melons that were bigger than his head resting on his chest, moving rhythmically along with the owner's calm breath.

Acht then looked at the person who was actually sleeping on top of him.

It was obviously Leislet who was somehow sprawled on top of him with her arms and legs wide open, taking basically the whole bed's space.

Her eyes were closed as she slept peacefully, while also hugging Acht's neck tightly. Her drool was also basically dropping on his face.

'This woman, how could she even sleep like this?…Sigh.' He could only sigh as he pushed her down the bed with slightly rough moves to wake her up.

The moment Leislet's face hit the rough ground, she woke up immediately. Her hazy eyes looked around not understanding what happened.

"Huh? How? When? What?" She muttered.

"What are you doing in my bed?" Acht asked with a clearly mad look.

He didn't hate that but he didn't want his sanity to be tested, especially from Leislet.

*Rub* *Rub*

"How horrible, Acht. I came here to live with you and this is how you welcome me. Didn't you miss me?~" she asked as she rubbed her eyes.

Acht's head tilted slightly.

"What did you just say?" He asked.

"Surprise, surprise, Leislet is now retired!!"

"Whaaat!?"
