Chapter 419 418: Found The One.

Rufus was walking on the sidewalk, and he was on his way to enjoying his morning coffee in his favorite cafe. Everyone knew him and they admired him for his achievements, and that was the main reason why he went out for a walk. He wanted everyone to acknowledge him, and it made him feel great.

He counted how many peoples recognized him. Every day more and more people greeted him or asked for his autograph.

While he was busy talking with his fans on the sidewalk, someone bumped into him from behind. He turned around and saw a light blue-haired woman with a high messy bun walk past him.

"Oh, sorry," The woman said and looked him in the eye with her light blue almond-shaped eyes. She only wore a white rolled-sleeve t-shirt and blue jeans.

Rufus looked at the woman who kept walking and for some reason having someone who didn't recognize him made him interested in them. He looked at the woman who entered the cafe, and he immediately chased the woman since he was charmed by her.

He looked through the glass wall and saw the woman waiting in line while she looked at her wristwatch. She then removed the hair clip and let her smooth hair flow down.

Rufus entered the cafe and hurriedly waited in line right behind the woman. He watched the woman play with her hair and the scent made him want to touch her silky hair.

People started noticing Rufus and they all approached him and greeted him. He thought the woman would turn around since she should know that he was famous, but she didn't even bother by it. It made him more interested in her, and not to mention he couldn't get rid of her beautiful face.

The woman ordered a coffee, and it was the opportunity for Rufus to give her a good first impression.

"Let me treat you," Rufus said as he stood next to her and finally could see her beautiful face again.

"You don't have to," The woman said as she smiled at him. "I can pay it myself," She continued as she tucked her hair in.

"Please, I insist," Rufus said as he rested his left hand on the counter and kept staring at her.

The woman smiled shyly and nodded her head with understanding. Rufus smiled and then ordered his coffee since he was going to pay for it, and so he could have a talk with her when the coffee was ready.

The woman got her black coffee while Rufus got his cappuccino.

"Are you new here? I have never seen you before," Rufus asked as they both walked away from the counter.

"Yes, I moved here three days ago and I haven't been in District Two before, so I'm new here. I came from a small town far from the city in District Seven," The woman shyly answered.

"Really? Would you like me to show you around? I know this place like the back of my hand," Rufus answered and tried to act cool.

Rufus couldn't believe a beauty like her came from a small town. He finally understood why she didn't know him since the demons never even went outside the city.

"Is that really okay? I can check the city on my own with a map on my phone," The woman replied.

"No, no. I'm fine since I'm on my day off anyway," Rufus said with a smile. "By the way, my name is Rufus and I'm Awakener from the Fraternity Association," Rufus continued as he offered his hand for a handshake.

The woman looked at his hand, and slowly shook his hand. "My name is Keysha, you can call me Key. So you're an Awakener? That's why you're being surrounded by people," Keysha said as she looked at Rufus.

"You can say that I'm one of the best Awakeners on Earth," Rufus replied. "By the way, are you here for work, Key? Perhaps a model?" Rufus asked and took a sip of his coffee.

"Actually, I don't have a job and I came here because I heard from my aunt that I can get paid a lot of money if I work in the city," Keysha answered and she sounded nervous. "But, I don't know what kind of a job I should apply for because I have zero experience and I used to help my mother at home," Keysha continued.

"You came at the right time, Key. There are so many vacant jobs nowadays because as you can see here so many buildings are being rebuilt here, and they're looking for a human resource," Rufus explained as he pointed at the buildings in front of him.

They both were enjoying their coffee as Rufus showed her the city and helped her find a job. Rufus didn't realize that the sun was setting, and had been spending his time with Keysha for hours. He really enjoyed talking with her, and how innocent and pure she was unlike Arum and Roxanne.

In the end, the only place that accepted Keysha was a flower shop, and the best part was the flower shop was only a few blocks away from Fraternity Headquarters. Rufus bribed the flower shop owner and forced him to accept Keysha. He couldn't let the opportunity go, and he wanted to see him every day.

"Thank you for showing me the city and helping me find a job, Rufus," Keysha shyly said as she hid her face.

"No need to mention it. I'm glad that I can help," Rufus replied.

"Anyway, it's getting late, I should go back now. I haven't unpacked all the stuff in my apartment," Keysha looked at her wristwatch.

"Do you need help? I can do the heavy lifting for you," Rufus asked.

Keysha smiled and shook her head. "I can do it on my own. I'm not trying to be rude after you helped me a lot today, and for the coffee, but I don't want to bring anyone to my apartment because we just met," Keysha answered and kept hiding her face. "I'm sorry," Keysha didn't dare to look at Rufus' face.

"I understand, and I'm glad that you said that because that's the right thing to do," Rufus chuckled. "I hope I have time to visit the flower shop tomorrow, but I might not be able to see you," Rufus said and he looked a bit sad.

"It's okay, I know that you might be busy, and there's nothing interesting to get involved with a country bumpkin like me," Keysha replied.

Rufus immediately grabbed Keysha's upper arms, and it made her grit her teeth, but she immediately hid it.

"What are you talking about? I never thought of you as a country bumpkin!" Rufus sounded a bit angry and worried. "I would spare time to come to see you even if I'm busy, but that's not the case here because I'm going to clear the tower tomorrow. I'm going to fight a demon and save the world they conquered," Rufus explained and tried his best to clear the misunderstanding.

"I see, so you're a hero like Mykel Alester?" Keysha asked and her eyes were glimmering.

Rufus clenched his fists when Keysha knew Mykel Alester more than him. He tried his best to hide his irritation and forced a smile as he nodded his head.

"That's right. Just like Mykel Alester," Rufus answered.

"I wish you good luck, Rufus," Keysha smiled and chuckled.

His anger and irritation suddenly disappeared when he looked at Keysha's genuine smile that she gave him. He thought to himself that he had finally found a diamond in the rough. He couldn't wait to tell the others about Keysha and tell them that he finally found the one.

"Yes! I'll be back and visit you as soon as I cleared the tower," Rufus grinned. "Well then, let's see each other again soon. I'll treat whatever you want to eat and drink," Rufus continued as he walked away backward and waved at her.

Keysha hummed and nodded her head as she waved back at him.

Rufus walked happily and he couldn't stop smiling, but on the other hand, Keysha's expression changed and she stared at him with disgust. She tried to wipe her upper arms where Rufus touched them.

"Disgusting human, I hope you die," Keysha said as she walked away.
