Chapter 3 - Chapter 3 : Yuki’s Loyalty

Damien stared at the computer screen, currently in his room. Then slowly Damien began typing a text in a browser on the computer screen. Damien's intelligence was above average. He then looked at the pile of papers on the table. Apparently, the owner of the body was a writer. However, it seemed that his manuscripts had been rejected several times. And there was a pair of handcuffs on the table that he didn't even know the function of.

Damien would not work as a writer, because it was quite difficult. He just wanted to make money, either by owning assets or a system that would work for him.

Suddenly, a bell rang. Damien went downstairs to see who it was. However, when he opened the door, Damien didn't expect someone to quickly stab him in the stomach with a knife. Damien froze and fell to his knees. Damn. Blood flowed from his stomach and fell to the floor.

"You!!!" Damien gritted his teeth and growled angrily. He then stood up and quickly kicked the man while covering his stomach. Damien didn't want to die easily. To that end, he tried to dodge the man's attacks. The man tried to attack Damien with a knife, but Damien was able to dodge it. Then, with all his might, Damien slammed his fist into the man's temple. The man immediately fell unconscious.

Damien turned pale. His vision suddenly blurred, faintly before his vision darkened, he saw someone running towards him. Only one name crossed his mind, Yuki.

"Mr. Damien!"

....

Damien opened his eyes, slowly adjusting them to see Yuki's figure. Damien then checked his stomach, which was bandaged, and found it difficult to move. Damien sighed heavily. It turned out that his body had not regenerated either. This made it difficult for him to heal quickly.

"Be careful, Mr. Damien." Yuki looked worried and helped Damien to lean back.

"Thank you, Yuki. You brought me here just in time," he said. Damien immediately thought about the owner of his body, how could he be completely unfamiliar with his father's secretary? The woman in front of him was the only good person Damien had ever met. Moreover, Yuki was a young woman with a beautiful face.

"You're welcome, Mr. Damien. By the way, how did you end up facing that man? Do you know him?"

Although it hurt a little to speak, Damien replied, "I don't know that man. But it seems like he knows me."

Yuki looked deep in thought. "Was there anything distinctive about that man?"

Damien recalled the previous incident. "I don't know, I just thought he was a regular janitor, but I was wrong." As far as he could remember, the man was carrying cleaning supplies in his hands.

Yuki sighed wearily. "Mr. Damien, it seems like you're easily fooled again. You have to remember that you are Mr. Burneo's son. Mr. Burneo has enemies, and for that reason, you have to think of ways to protect yourself as best you can!" Yuki interjected.

Damien shifted his gaze to the side and caught a glimpse of two small solid objects belonging to Yuki. "Yes, okay." Damien then grimaced in pain when his body suddenly felt an intense burning sensation. Seeing this, Yuki became worried, especially when Damien opened the bandage on his stomach.

But what she saw made Yuki's eyes widen.

"EEHH? HIS STOMACH? IT'S HEALED! HOW COULD IT BE THAT FAST??!!"

Damien looked down at his stomach. Indeed, his body no longer felt any pain. All his wounds were covered. What should Damien explain to Yuki about this?

Seeing the woman staring at him in disbelief, Damien then said, "The wounds weren't that big. Besides, I have a fast regeneration system."

"I see." Yuki nodded in understanding, but her curiosity remained. "By the way, Mr. Damien. Do you want to say something?"

Hearing that, for some reason, Damien's overflowing desire to kill the man instantly disappeared. He felt ashamed at that moment.

"Nothing," Damien said quickly. Damien would not forget Burneo's kindness and would consider him his father.

"I see. Well then, you'd better start thinking about your future," said Yuki with a smile.

When he first met Yuki, Damien wanted to act like a baby. Now, on the contrary, Damien wanted to protect her. Being a writer was probably similar to being a wanderer. Damien wouldn't be able to do that job. But he could still work in other fields.

Suddenly, a thought crossed Damien's mind. "Yuki? Do you have a boyfriend?"

Suddenly, Yuki's cheeks turned red. She quickly shook her head and looked awkward. "Of course I don't have a boyfriend, Mr. Damien!"

Seeing this, Damien sighed softly.

"I see. Then... why are you still working with my father?" A hint of surprise appeared on Yuki's face, but the woman then smiled.

"Mr. Damien, Mr. Burneo has taken care of me and three other children since we were little. You may not remember, but I don't mind explaining it again. We were children who were victims of an orphanage fire. Together with your late mother, he took care of us, supporting the four of us until we all became successful people. Should I turn my back and forget all his kindness? No, Mr. Damien!"

Hearing Yuki's explanation, Damien fell silent for a moment. 'I see'. Damien suddenly felt a pain in his chest and cried out in pain, falling from his bed. Damien curled up, hugging himself.

"Mr. Damien!!" ....

....

Damien opened his window. He saw a pigeon on his windowpane and immediately caught the bird and tied it up with a rope. Damien left the bird in a cage.

Damien then took the police uniform and put it on. This time Damien was going to work. Apparently, the owner of the body was a security guard. But he also enjoyed writing novels. No wonder he saw handcuffs on his desk.

After putting on his shoes, Damien took the motorcycle out of the trunk. At first, Damien tried to start the motorcycle, and once he understood how it worked, Damien immediately rode the motorcycle through the city streets. ....

Damien decided to stop at a ramen shop after working all day. He was tired and felt that it was easy to carry out his duties as a police officer. After contacting Yuki, they agreed to have dinner together.

Yuki was already sitting at a table and waved at him. "Mr. Damien!"

Damien waved back at her. He sat down across from Yuki. After that, Yuki ordered food. The 25-year-old woman then talked about her job as a manager at her new company.

Damien then decided to order wine. He wanted to relieve the stress of working all day. Together with Yuki, the woman poured wine into Damien's glass.

"Yuki, I promise, I will catch those bastards soon! You have to trust me!" said Damien hoarsely.

They were both drunk. However, Damien was more drunk than Yuki, who only had a few glasses. Damien and Yuki decided to leave the bar.

Damien felt like he was going to throw up everything in his stomach. He couldn't hold it in, so Damien vomited on someone else's motorcycle. Damien was very drunk. He was staggering.

With her senses returning, Yuki pulled Damien's hand towards her car. She couldn't let him drive. In the middle of the road, Damien, who was staggering, accidentally hit someone. Damien was shocked and stared at the man's face.

However, Yuki immediately apologized to the man. The man nodded and left. Damien's gaze suddenly fell on the strange square-shaped object that the man had dropped. Damien examined the object carefully; it seemed familiar to him. When he turned around, the man he had bumped into was already gone. Damien then picked it up and put it in his pocket. Yuki quickly drove the car through the city streets, letting Damien fall asleep.
