Emotion Taster

Arc 3 Sweet Stinged Acid Ant Format: Chapter 21 - Spear Gun Capit . 1

*Whoush ....

Emotional waves.

Anger ... The spicy taste that strikes my face and in my mouth can be felt. Although not too concentrated, but the feeling is mixed by the bitter taste of hatred.

Every second, I could see his mental development. The little boy's hands were clenched, his teeth were puffed up, and the wrinkles in his eyes seemed to be kept from yelling at me.

I don't actually know what kind of creature I've been dealing with right now. About what would happen if he got up, I just hope that it doesn't really kill me.

But ....

"Huft .. hah ...."

Hm?

That breath is not me, it is Geza. Along with the outflow of air, I could feel that the waves of his emotions were fading, almost disappearing.

This is quite unique, because it is very rare for people to be able to control their emotions like that after coming out as big an emotion as I felt just now. Usually people would take out at least one punch, be it pointing at me or at an inanimate object in the vicinity.

"I guess we can understand each other .., Kaivan," he said, still bowing his head avoiding my eyes.

"I understand you, and I understand that murder is the wrong thing—"

"Enough," cut it softer with the palm span lifted. "Now I know that a witch-class creature still can't understand me."

"..."

Geza started to turn around, he left and stepped in to leave me alone.

"You're defending your territory, aren't you? Take it easy, I'll never be here again."

That sentence is goodbye. She doesn't really hate me, she just doesn't want to deal with me anymore. What was his decision not to force me turned out to be true, he guarded the words and tried to leave without a trace.

*Step, step, step ....

Trouble's over, the intruder's gone, and I can focus on my problem right now. Pero's worries and responsibilities that have always been imposed will stop for a moment, at least one or two days will be enough to find the girl. In any case, I was the one who could smell the waves of Imarine emotions. The game of hide and seek was not the first time we did.

The footsteps of the lobster witch were getting further away. Since I was in the spacious parking lot of the hospital that was empty, the appearance was not that fast to disappear. Then, in contrast to Hanz who could use disappearing magic, Geza did not seem to use it at all, he walked just like an ordinary human.

*Step, step, step ....

"..."

Is this really all I want to do? If everything ends like this, then there is one thing that will never change.

*gluc

I gulped, trying to strengthen mentally by slightly clenching my hands. In time, I made a bold decision.

"Woi, wait," I'll call Geza.

My voice was not loud, but the comparison of the quiet and spacious atmosphere made the air wave vibrate up to his eardrum. So, along with the call, Geza began to stop his steps.

"What else?"

"The problem isn't over here, Geza. Once I know all this, do you think I'm the one who can just let a murderer roam around?"

*Dug, dug ....

Emotional waves.

"Ahah," she turned hard and turned her body back towards me. "Kaivan .., I think I couldn't be more disappointed. But, ahahah .. I think you're a smart human who values your own life."

From his body language, Geza is very confident in his abilities. He knew that he had combat abilities, he believed that people like me had no chance of defeating him.

After all, I also know, I myself do not have the background to fight. Something I have is just a reflex to dodge an attack, nothing in it a powerful attack that can be crippling.

"I never felt that I was smart. But, I'm sure letting you roam free is a stupid act," I said in reply.

With the calm demeanor that he let out, I can also act as calm as possible. Mental threats will have no effect because I can always tell the heart's intent from the emotional wave of the person before me.

*blink

As soon as I saw a huge spear emerge from empty space, the lights gathered together until it finally formed the weapon. The shape is quite terrible with a length that exceeds the height of Geza itself. So, rather than being afraid, I was more curious how it could be with such a small body that he was able to sustain the weapon.

The mechanism is quite unique, each end looks so mechanical, each side is formed sharp teeth. With two knife arms, the spear can be opened and closed like a scissors. But, the shape itself is more like a claw. The handle itself is also unique, it looks like he is holding his spear is not pure like a spear, the second handle on top that connects with the mechanic claw makes it look to be holding an atomizer like a flamethrower.

*Sheath

Geza pulled out the spear that had just been raised behind his body, pulled it forward and made a swift position with the tip of the spear pointed at me.

There was not the slightest sense of being overwhelmed by Geza when holding the weapon, each movement was so smooth as if he was holding a light broom. I thought for a moment that it was light, but all that changed when the tip of the spear clanked violently against the asphalt ground in this open parking area.

"Kaivan .. I'm a good man. If you think again, I still forgive you by letting me go now."

"..."

I kept quiet, did not answer him and kept staring at Geza flatly. As long as those seconds were not a sound from the two of us, Geza kept his spear, and I remained standing upright not putting any horses. If I feel anything, it's just the motion of the midnight wind. Not a clear answer, but it seems to have indicated that I still do not accept it.

"Hmn ... Can I take it with a no answer?" ask the child with a slight threat.

"I'm still at my disposal, Geza."

"Then get your gun out now."

"I don't have a weapon" I replied while making a gesture of 'nothing' raising both hands. "From the beginning, I wasn't a magician who had great abilities like you."

"Huh?"

Geza's response there was quite shocked, he was confused by the statement because he had always considered me a witch. Various conversations we had, whether it was about magic or not, and during that time I could follow it. So, there's no suspicion at all that I'm an ordinary human being.

"I don't have magic, I can only feel it, that's all. The rest I'm just a human being, and that human just happened to find you" I said to explain.

Geza blinked twice, he looked back at me focused to see the truth of my words. From that attitude, back again he had no suspicion, my tenured attitude made him even confused to want to with his own goals.

"Hagh ...," his loud breath complained that was accompanied by heavy disappointment. "Where can ordinary people stop me."

"..."

In line with the sentence, Geza pulled his spear back. He put it backwards and again the spear disappeared into light.

"In your eyes I'm a murderer, but I'm not going to fight an unarmed man."

Geza's path was passed to the back, he continued his actions to leave me.

"Woi, wait—"

"Enough!" cut it hard not letting me talk. "I'm tired of your show, Kaivan. I have no business with you anymore."

*Run

"Hhh!?"
