The King's Mandate: Anomalous System

Chapter 442: Unofficial Date

"10 more days, and it will be my birthday."

"Don't get too excited. We still have two more exams, remember?"

"I know."

"And the last one is on your birthday."

"I know."

Elena licked the cream from her fingers.

"Are you even listening to me?"

"Hmm."

"Are you really listening to me?"

"Hmm."

"Do you know that" Das stopped.

"Hmm."

"Are you an idiot?"

"Hmmm."

Das raised his eyebrows and slammed his hand on the table. "Stop licking your fingers and listen to me!."

"I am listening."

"Why do you always do things that I don't like?"

"Like?" Elena asked with an innocent expression on her face.

"I want to slap that face of yours."

"Whoa. Verbal abuse is not working, so now you are switching to physical abuse?"

"..."

Elena grinned and held Das' hand. "Would you seriously beat me if I make you angry?"

"..." Das didn't say anything.

"Like really really angry. You know how you yell and smash things around. Will you do the same with me?"

"Who knows?" Das grinned back.

"My parents are lawyers, so if you do anything to me, you will get sued with assault charges."

Das squeezed Elena's finger and smirked, "I will make sure you won't say a word."

Elena chucked and took out her phone.

"What are you doing?"

"Checking out feeds and seeing if there is something interesting."

"Wow."

"Also checking if the weather would be clear on my birthday."

"When is your birthday party?"

"On my birthday, duh!"

Das' face twitched as he twisted Elena's finger. "At what time and where?"

"Are you going to come?"

"I am not." Das let go of Elena's finger. "Didn't you say you will arrange a special party for me?"

"Yeah, the next day."

Das couldn't help but stare at Elena's happy face. "Still, you look too excited for a birthday."

"I haven't celebrated my birthday in years, so I want to make it special this year."

"Is that so?"

"Yea, so this time I want to make it super duper awesome."

"How many people are you inviting?"

"Everyone from school."

"That's way too much."

"But I don't think everyone will come."

"Well yeah,"

Elena played with her hair and said, "I will post the invitation on our school's forum site."

"That's a good idea." Das stared at Elena for a while, then said, "Have you invited your parents?"

"Nope."

Das started worrying about Elena. Usually, parties are one of the events where the most unspeakable incidents happen.

'I can't leave her alone. Maybe I will go to her party after all?' Da thought.

Even though he was bad with crowded places, he thought of going to a crowded place for Elena.

'I won't tell her I will come, and on her birthday, I will go there and surprise her."

"Alright," Das stood up and reached his hand at Elena as he said, "Shall we go now?"

"Oh?" Elena grabbed Das' hand and stood up. "Being a gentleman now?"

"Anything for you."

"Huh?"

Das ended up saying something embarrassing again. His face flushed as he tried to dodge the topic. "This mall sure is big, huh?"

"Don't try to avoid the topic. You said something before, right?" Das failed to avoid the topic.

Das stiffened and started walking as he pulled Elena with him.

After seeing Das acting like that, Elena smirked and thought of teasing Das.

They left the shopping mall and walked out of the main entry gate.

Suddenly, a hand came out from the corner and punched Das in the eyes.

Das let go of Elena's hand and looked in the direction the punch came from.

"You!" It was the waiter from before.

He was wearing brass knuckles on his hand. If that punch had a little more strength in it, Das' eyes would have badly injured, or he might even be blind.

The punch hit Das' right eyes, and it started bleeding.

The waiter once again tried to punch Das in the face. Das couldn't see properly as his eyes were constantly closing as soon as he opened them. Das tried to grab the waiter's hand but missed, and it hit Das on the cheek.

"Das!" Elena came in front of Das and stood before him while spreading her arms.

"Go away from here, Elena." Das requested.

Elena didn't move an inch and kept glaring at the waiter.

"I lost my joy because of you, bitch!" The waiter tried to punch Elena.

Das pushed her on the side and kicked the waiter in the stomach. "And now you will lose your life."

Das still couldn't see clearly, but handling one guy wasn't much of a deal for Das.

The waiter stood up and tried to punch Das on the stomach. Das dodged to the side and grabbed the waiter's face.

"Any last wishes?"

The waiter moved his other hand and punched Das' eye, which was already bleeding.

Das smirked and said, "So this is what you want?" Das pulled the waiter's face up by bragging his hand and said, "Remember my face." 

He then punched the waiter on the face, and some teeth with blood came flying out from his mouth, then he fell on the ground. Das walked to him, but Elena stopped him. 

Elena grabbed Das from behind and hugged him. Soon, the police came and arrested the waiter.

"Are you okay, kid?" the officer asked.

Das gazed at the officer. The officer stared blankly at Das, then his eyes widened, and said, "Take care."

Elena was still hugging Das from behind. "Hey, let go now. I am okay." Das could feel a wet sensation on his back; seemingly, Elena was most likely crying.

"I am sorry."

"Why are you apologizing?"

"It's all my fault."

Das grabbed Elena's hand and pulled her in front, "What do you mean by that? How was this all your fault?"

"It's because I yelled and called the manager, the waiter got fired, and then he came after me, but you got injured."

Das smiled and wiped Elena's tears, "Idiot."

Elena looked into Das' eyes and tried to touch his eye but stopped halfway as her eyes widened, "There is a green crack in your pupil."

"Huh?"

Das immediately took out his phone and opened the camera to see.

'My lens broke?'
