After coming down the stairs— maybe Melly or Amanda told Tristan where they entered—the three of them went to the entrance.
Unlike the three of them, Rani was silent at the foot of the stairs. His gaze was directed to the front of a nearby shelf— where Martin talked to some of his gang members and a thug whom Rani suspected of being the head of the Chebol gang. There Ghevin is being held by two thugs while Martin beats him. Ghevin's condition is pretty bad. Blood flowed from his temple, also from his lips.
Along with Ghevin's blood flow, Rani's tears also flowed. Light only. Seeing Ghevin beaten Rani was already so panicked, let alone augmented with blood. His gang members and Tristan's gang members are still busy with their respective opponents, so they can't help him.
So, that's why now Rani single-handedly ran through the crowd, trying to help Ghevin. Martin's laptop even dropped it.
Rani can faintly hear Melly calling her, but she just keeps running. Almost Rani was hit by a stray bump from one of the thugs, because the Ghevin gang members who would be pounded by thugs were too close to her.
Melly's right. Rani is sloppy, bego, and reckless. What was he going to do when he confronted Martin and the two thugs? They will not release Ghevin even if he asks for it.
Martin stood his back to Rani, so as not to see Rani running towards him. The one who saw Rani, with a little late, were the two thugs. But before they could warn Martin, Rani had already arrived right behind Martin, and immediately held Martin's hand that would hit Ghevin for the umpteenth time.
”Do not!” prevent Rani.
With one loud jolt, Martin released his hand from Rani. Rani's body reached a dreg, and hit the shelf behind her. As a result of the incident, Rani felt her back as if it was being ripped apart because of her pain.
A groan of pain that came out of Rani's mouth immediately resuscitated Ghevin. Using the remnants of his power, Ghevin rebelled, releasing himself from the grasp of the two thugs. It seems that Rani's appearance caught the two thugs off guard.
Ghevin prepares to lash out at Martin, but his attention is distracted by something above Rani. Ghevin's face turned horrified, and he immediately shouted to warn Rani.
”RANI, AWAAASSSS!!!” shout Ghevin.
Although he wanted to avoid it, but Rani was unable to move. He closed his eyes, waiting for the pain to come.
It was then that Ghevin plunged his body into Rani's body, knocking Rani to the floor. Ghevin's hand protected the back of Rani's head, so it didn't hit the floor immediately.
Rani's body is pinned under Ghevin's body, while pieces of wood are falling on Ghevin. A few pieces of wood that fell to the floor made a deafening sound, but Rani could not even cover her ears. Let alone to close the ears, to just breathe it feels like he has trouble.
After all the pieces of wood fell, Ghevin lifted his body slightly. Rani hurriedly took the opportunity to breathe as much air as possible.
”R-rani..,” murmured Ghevin. A drop of his blood fell onto Rani's cheek. ”Lo nothing?”
Feeling unable to make a sound, Rani just nodded.
Ghevin smiled faintly. ”S-thankfully...,” murmured again.
Then Ghevin's smile slowly dissipated, changing in pain. His body again fell on Rani's body, and this time he was just silent, not moving.
