BXBX NOVEL Chapter 388 Do You Still Like Me?
In the night sky, the moon appeared to be shrouded by clouds, as if hiding itself from something. A giant eye could be seen in the air, staring at the corpses before it. It was absorbing something from then. A boy could be seen sitting on a mountain of corpses with a smile on his face.
The Shadow creatures were moving around, causing chaos. It was then that the boy's face shifted, remembering something. Its eyes, filled with traces of Killing Intent shifted toward the single entity around him containing life force, and as he looked at her shocked face, his killing intent started to dissipate.
He disappeared from his place and appeared one meter in front of her. Their eyes met again. Kajal looked at his cold eyes, which still had some traces of Killing Intent left. The cold face appeared to be familiar and distinct at the same time.
Her head became exhausted thinking about the boy who appeared to be the kindest person to her, and then it was this other self, which was the polar opposite. If one of them were real, she might have thought he was doing it all to impress her if he had not brought her here today.
In his cold eyes filled with sadness, she could see sincerity. She was not easy to fool, and she knew that he was always sincere about taking care of her. She was conflicted when looking at him like this; these were just humanoid beasts, but if she had to guess, he would do the same with his human enemies.
"What happened, Kajal? Haven't you always wanted to see my hidden self?" He laughed halfheartedly, extending his neck towards her. "Tell me now, would you be able to treat me the same?"
"Tell me"
"Tell me"
The voice echoed in her head, and her body shook as she looked at him in such a state. Her mind was signaling her to step back, but her heart had its own plans. She stood like that, staring at him silently, clenching her fists. She was scared but didn't know why; she could still trust him.
'What has happened to me? Why am I acting so foolish? This guy is not in his right mind right now. What were my parents thinking when they agreed to marry me to him?' Her mind was filled with countless thoughts: 'Kajal, he is still Rishi; he needs your help; you should support him.'
Her brain was a mess, and she started feeling a slight headache. "Stop it!" she shouted, Shocking even Rishi. While she was speaking to herself, due to her frustration, she spoke loudly. Her ear reddened; she was embarrassed, but when she saw the sudden change in Rishi, he looked to be coming back to his senses.
"Stop it, you idiot," she said as she looked at him with an angry expression. "Stop this bullshit. How many times have I said it already? My opinion won't change no matter what. Do you think everyone lies all the time like you?"
Rishi's expression changed further, and the traces of Killing intent started to dissipate. Kajal saw it was working and continued, "Do you believe my words are just air? You are not like this Rishi. The Rishi I know would never let go of his emotions and become a lunatic like this; he knows to suppress his emotions; they could never overpower him."
Her words appeared like slaps to Rishi; with each, he improved and returned to his usual self. It was as if his insecurities had gotten the better of him; somewhere inside, he always thought that the moment she saw him like this, She would change her opinion; after all, he had become a complete Demon at this time.
It had started since he awakened Killing Intent. At first, he had perfect control of it and was happy about this power, but as he used it, he found out that once he started killing, His mind became filled with this sensation, and he could feel his killing intent getting stronger.
The more he killed, the more it grew; the more it grew, the stronger it became; the stronger it became, the stronger he became. As he killed more and more, it got to the point where if he used it carelessly. He became a killing machine. This was the reason he had started maintaining a distance from others.
He also started meditating and became calm, not getting easily triggered by anyone. He also stopped himself from using this power. He felt that if it kept going like this, he would really become a murderous Demon. When he got the chance to enter this Realm with Kajal, he tried to avoid killing because who knew when he would start mindless killing?
At first, he always tried to hide this from Kajal by only showing her his kind self, but he noticed over the past two days that her behavior had changed a little. He was not stupid enough to not notice it. He soon realized she might have learned something and was misunderstanding him.
When such thoughts appeared in his mind, he felt he couldn't let them happen. After his parents and Grandfather, she was the only one with a place in his heart. If she decided to start maintaining distance from him, he would not be able to control himself.
Many strange thoughts appeared inside him when he looked at her. One of them was to kidnap her and hide her from the world. He had to fight his inner demons constantly; much worse thoughts came into his mind to make her his own, but he controlled himself.
Every moment with her was a struggle; he had to do so many things together. Take care of herself, be gentle, suppress your inner demons, hide your other self, and appear happy. Even for him, these things had made him mentally exhausted. As he started appearing late, she became suspicious.
He decided that it couldn't continue like this; before she found out about his secret, why not show it himself? Why not let go of all his insecurities and be sincere? There would be only one outcome. Either she would accept him, and they would be able to live happily together, or he would need to marry her by impressing her family.
In both cases, something like leaving her never came to his mind. So what if she doesn't like his current self? He could always work hard and improve, hoping she would start liking him one day. Leaving her was too much of a price for him. If he didn't even have her, then there was nothing left for him in this world. He had already lost everyone close to him if she also left him; what's the point of struggling then?
Kajal looked at him and saw that he was recovering. She thought this condition might be due to him awakening Killing Intent at such an early age. She had heard about it, and many of those who awakened killing Intent could not control it. They started being controlled by it and started killing mindlessly.
Rishi looked to be suffering from this; he appeared to be very much in control. From what she had heard, only love and care could help them with meditation. She knew everything about Rishi. He didn't have anyone close to him; all the people close to him had passed away.
She stepped toward him and hugged him. "Rishi You can defeat it; I believe in you. I would never leave you due to it."
