On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His

Chapter 68: New Adventures

Milan wondered what possibly could be happening back at home. Her heart felt restless for a moment thinking how the realm would handle the pressure. Thought of exterminating the family haunted her from the moment she heard it. She also wondered what Aiden would be doing right now, afraid if he would lose his temper and commit any mistakes. 

The sky looked dark with lightening hitting for every ten minutes followed by loud thunders that strong enough to stop the heart from beating further. 

Milan walked through the empty road freely, with cars parked under the buildings in the parking lot in line. Every shops and restaurants shut down. The buzzing street now with no living beings around. 

Milan was holding an electric blue umbrella. She was wearing the black Jean, maroon shirt and a black leather jacket over the shirt with a matching leather knee length boots, Milan got into one of the shops that was easy to get in and that did not have any CCTV. But apparently it was a cafe with no fresh food. Milan walked towards the freezer and found some interesting items. Frozen and cold. She grabbed some ice creams, puddings and drinks and walked towards a table to eat them. She had randomly chosen chocolate scoops, strawberry icecream cake, mango and green apple ice cream bars, Cornetto and a jar of vanilla with choco chip icecream. She had then all one by one and enjoyed it. Her tongue was getting almost frozen and found it very funny when she tired to speak feeling her tongue going in different directions. She laughed. Ay the same time she felt her stomach cooling as she kept eating them. 

An hour later, Milan kept few pieces of gold on the counter and left the shop. She walked through the streets again. She had searched more than ten countries nearby and hundreds of cities scanning for her sister but she found nothing. And she had reached the next top. This city looked too beautiful divided into two equal halves with the river flowing through in the middle. Milan decided to visit and search anyway though she wasn't hopeful. 

She could hear all kinds of noises from the houses on the street. Crying, weeping, laughing, animals making sounds, cooking, arguments, babies crying, fighting, things breaking, movie dialogues, sings, singing, instruments, even the faint sounds of kisses. It appeared that people are taking the typhoon break as a vacation to rest from their daily robotics lives. Milan smiled and walked down the street and put out the spell to search for traces of family blood.

She then heard an interesting argument between friends. She couldn't help but laugh at it as they argued about for long, the male friend confessing after just sleeping with her day before while the girl kept rejecting him afraid of losing him as a friend.

"She has a point, but so does he!" Milan said and kept walking. Milan found nothing for an hour and suddenly sparked in the direction she just finished walking. Milan turned and saw something strange in the air. A familiar thing floating.  "No, Noway," she said. She walked hurriedly careful to not use so much of power to not get back fired and decided to run and go to the place it led her to.

She used all her energy and finally reached in front of a huge apartment building. The same place she listened to a funny conversation. She spotted another crystal in the air floating. 

"Oh my god," she gasped. She prepared to send a message to her father but remembered quickly she made the mistake. "No I can't let anybody know since moron Tai is in Water Realm now," she said and she decided to get into the apartment invisibly. As she climbed up, she watched through the window a couple cuddling in the bed and she shut her eyes. "People have nothing to do except this on their free times these days," she murmured and waited. Few minutes later she watched the girl waking up and walking towards the washroom. She could see in the wall clock that it us already 2 in the afternoon.  Suddenly she noticed crystals following her.

Milan used her power and entered the flat, walking into the room. He saw the man peacefully sleeping on the bed, naked under the sheets. She covered her eyes and walked towards the washroom. She could also see crystals crowding outside the flat in the atmosphere. 

"Aqua, " Milan whispered.  She forgot that though she is invisible others would be able to hear her voice. Milan soon covered her mouth while the girl in front turned around to see what she had heard, sweating and looking scared. She was holding her abdomen. It looked like she was hurting. Then Milan noticed the girl watching the crystals with her eyes growing wide in shock. Milan did not know how to control this human person and remained quiet. 

Milan understood what the Crystal's had done to the girl. The girl fell unconscious the moment all those Crystal's entered her body. Milan covered her mouth to prevent her from screaming out loud and moved aised quickly seeing the guy walking into the washroom with a towel wrapped around his hips as he heard something falling down. 

"Fariya," he called her. "Fariya wake up? Why did you faint again?"

"Faint again?" Milan was struck by the words. "So it happened before too?" She wondered. "Aqua is that you?" She tried asking silently to see if the conscious of her sister is awake or not. She got no answers but. Milan did her best to not keep her hopes high and decided to observe the girl in front of her for few days since she had witnessed the Crystal's entering the body. The guy carried the girl back into room and sprinkled some water on her face. A few minutes later the girl was regained her consciousness. 

"What happened?" He akse her looking worried. "Twice in a day? Are you okay? Are you hurt? Did I hurt you?" He asked her. 

"No i feel fine now," she said rubbing her head where it hit as she fell with a thud. "I thought i saw something but before i took a good look at it outside the window it rushed towards me, I don't know what happened later,"

"You seem too stressed Fariya, you need rest," he said taking her face in his hands and kissed her forehead. 

"How romantic?" Milan walked towards the window on the right side of the bed and stood leaning back, watching the lovely couple.  He looked pretty sexy while she looked pretty. What a match! Milan decided to stay in the house invisibly not bothering them though it is wrong to invade privacy just to keep her eyes on the Crystals. She wanted to make sure of the phenomena she witnessed. 

"Am fine Aizen," Fariya said back. 

'Aizen nice,' Milan thought smiling and turned away standing there watching outside the window.  Aizen reminded her of Aiden and she felt desperate all of a sudden. Then waves of disappointment, sadness and unrequited love hit her, that always hurt her.

Aizen brought freshly brewed coffee for Fariya to drink and he asked her to not leave the bed for the day. He kept telling her and walked to kitchen ti cook for the two of them. He then found the stacked mails on top of the refrigerator.  Payments receipts of the loan. She indeed was using 80% of her salary to pay off the loan and living somehow in the rest 20% percent. And it is from that little amount she always bought him food too. His heart broke to think how he made her spend. He noticed the number of instant noodles arranged inside the shelves instead of having real food ingredients. He felt guilty to have made her spend for him and he kept back the receipts right back in their place. She hated people checking on her things all the time and knowing her for years it was pretty easy for him to adjust according to her likes like she does for him all the time. He really wanted her for himself, for a life time. 

Milan watched what he was doing and noted his moves. He reminded her too much about Aiden though they had no absolute connection. Milan grew anxious but relaxed sitting in the dining chair adjusting herself sitting in the middle getting the views from kitchen as well the room. 

Aiden prepared a machow soup and a plate of chicken and rice. He prepared lemonade for her served food for her on the bed and sat along with her with his food in jus hands, eating together. 

"Don't tire yourself too," she advised him as she took a bite of the spicy chicken fry. "Wow, so yummy," Fariya said smiling as she had her meals but right before discharge she would tell things. The guy looked extremely happy and kept feeding her. He had only a little and walked back into the kitchen.  He had things to arrange. 

Milan tired of keeping the watch  finally decided to take nap in the other bedroom for a while since she has been travelling nonstop for days and now  finally spotting some progress
