Chapter 78 CHAPTER 78: 1 FATED PROTAGONIST AND 2 VILLAINS

Davies pushed open the door to Tisha's room and walked in to a dejected-looking Tisha who was staring at the ceiling in a daze with boredom written all over her face. She didn't even bother to look at who was at the door.

"You know, just staring at the ceiling in boredom wouldn't make the boredom go away," Davies said as he walked in with his hands in his pockets.

His voice seemed to have jerked her out of her dazed state, as she turned to look at him and the moment her eyes fell upon his lithe figure, her lively attitude showed itself, with a beautiful smile breaking out on her face.

"How are you feeling?" Davies asked.

"Bored," she replied.

"... I meant how you were doing physically, but I guess you're fine now if you have the energy to feel bored,"

"Hmph," she looked away with a pout.

"Where are the rest of your little kiddies squad," he asked, not caring for her coquettish but cute act.

"I mean, Teresa and the rest of them," he made sure to add, so as to clarify that he still didn't think much of them.

"I think they've been discharged already, or at least Teresa has," she replied, not continuing to pout.

"Then why haven't you been discharged yet?" Davies ended up asking as he couldn't understand why she was still lying in bed, especially as she had no physical injuries on her body… like at all.

"Doctor Alyssa said I still needed to rest for a little while," Tisha replied dejectedly.

'What's a little bit of mana exhaustion going to do to the body?' he wondered but did not bother to think too much about it as he was not an expert when it came to things like taking care of the body.

All he usually did was slap a few bandages and duct tape on his injuries if they were external and rest for a few days if they were internal, but even then, he didn't spend more than a few hours at a stretch just lying down.

You can't afford to spend days on end just lying down when you have a protagonist on your ass.

Well… since he knew nothing about these medical matters, then all he had to do, was get someone who knew about it…

His team was missing a doctor after all.

Luckily, he was about to meet one.

"I'll talk to Alyssa then," Davies said as he turned to leave, but after reaching the door and pulling it open, he paused mid-step just before stepping out,

"...You wouldn't happen to be doing anything later today, huh?" he asked not looking back.

"Uh-Uhm, No, I have nothing I'm doing later today," she managed to stammer out a response while doing her best to hold her emotions that were exploding from the situation.

"I'll be back in a little while then," Davies said as he stepped out finally and the door shut itself behind him.

'D-Did he just ask me out?' Tisha was a turmoil of emotions as her cheeks turned blushing red just from the thought of spending some time together with the man she liked.

It seemed he had finally noticed her feelings for him and for now, he wasn't rejecting it, but rather he was taking the initiative to have a little romantic time between them and develop their relationship, and for this, she just about wanted to explode in joy, but she didn't… who would Davies date if she exploded in happiness?

*In the hallway*

Davies was walking through the hallways back toward the lobby when he just realized that he had no way to contact Alyssa even though he had made an appointment with her.

He had not remembered to get her phone number yesterday, so he would have to go back to the lobby and ask whoever was the receptionist how to contact Alyssa.

[What are you planning now?]

[I don't believe you asked Tisha on a date just because you are interested in her]

'That is part of it… but I'm planning to take her along with me to find Lee Jung,'

'I wonder what would happen if a fated protagonist with a glaring fate value and Tisha with a dark fate value meet up,'

[First of all, that is wrong, secondly, I already know what would happen] Miya interrupted his devious thoughts.

'What do you mean?' Davies asked with a puzzled expression.

[First, it won't be between the fated protagonist and someone with a dark fate value, but between the fated protagonist and two people with a dark fate value]

'... Wait that means?'

[Yes, you dumbass, she's not the only one with a dark fate value, you're also a villain with a dark fate value]

[Funnily enough, I never bothered to check it until I saw Tisha's dark fate value yesterday]

'So it's confirmed then… she really is a villain or is going to become one in the future,' Davies thought with a hand on his chin, deep in thought.

'I wonder what turned her to the villain side in the future?' he thought trying to sift through the information he had about her but he still could not come to a reasonable conclusion, so he decided to put it to the side for now and focus on something else,

'Anyway, you said that you already knew what would happen if they met… or we met,'

[Yes, I did]

'...'

'... well then, care to elaborate?' he asked after waiting for her to speak, but not receiving a response.

[Oh… yeah]

[Uh, you guys' meeting would only end in conflict, like any other meeting between a protagonist and an antagonist, but now that there are two of you, the conflict that is bound to happen would be taken up by quite a notch]

[You probably wouldn't even have to do anything and conflicts would still arise between you]

'...Oh, wow…'

'... that sounds like a lot of fun…' he thought a slight smile beginning to appear at the corner of his lips.
