Chapter 285 285 – Saving Her

“Yeah, I’m talking to you, did you kidnap me? What’s going on here?” Mia questioned.

Her reaction right now indicated that she might be the real Mia as she had never seen Aiden’s real face in the trial since he had been the king’s assassin at the time.

‘So she doesn’t have any idea of who I am?’ Aiden thought as he knew that he couldn’t really go up and introduce himself as he still felt that the Minotaur was looking at him.

Aiden knew that this would be the case, but he had to admit that it really hurt him as he remembered that pretty much all of his first experiences with girls had been with her, so when he saw the look of distrust in her eyes, he felt hurt.

“Just stay there, I need to deal with this first,” Aiden said as he turned his back toward the Minotaur.

After turning around, he noticed that there was something that was weird about the Minotaur as Aiden was almost sure that he had a little smirk on his face.

‘What is he smirking at?’ Aiden thought as he was frustrated that this monster was wasting his precious time away from Mia.

He didn’t want to be dealing with this right now since he had the opportunity to go up to Mia and talk to her about what happened after he went away from her world.

To be completely honest, Aiden always wondered what happened to the world that he joined.

What happened after he left?

He wanted to know if she had continued to have a relationship with the king’s assassin.

However, he dismissed those thoughts as he lost sight of the Minotaur, Aiden who had been distracted by his thoughts had lost sight of him.

‘Just where is that gigantic monster, it’s not like he can hide behind the trees,’ Aiden thought as he knew that the Minotaur was a lot too big to be hiding being anything for that matter.

‘Wait don’t tell me…’ 

As he thought of that, Aiden turned around and saw that Mia was still outside of the tent looking at Aiden probably wondering what was happening right now.

But, then as Aiden looked behind her, he got shivers running down his back as he saw that the Minotaur was now right behind her with a big smirk on his face.

Without losing any second, Aiden dashed forward as he wanted to save Mia at all costs, he still didn’t know if she was the real one and he didn’t want to take any chances.

He pushed himself as much as he could which almost caused him to fall forward by trying too hard.

However, such a thing didn’t happen as he was able to take control of his body before falling down.

Aiden was moving so fast that he had never expected a monster to be faster than him, but what he saw contradicted what he had just thought.

The Minotaur wasn’t even looking at Aiden anymore as he probably couldn’t see him, he was looking at Mia with a big smirk on his face as he had figured out that this girl was Aiden’s weak point.

He had seen the look in Aiden’s eyes when she had gotten out of the tent which is why it decided that it would be attacking Mia and not him as the Minotaur didn’t seem to keen on fighting Aiden head-on.

It probably wasn’t confident enough.

Then, seeing that Minotaur was about to strike as Aiden was still a couple of steps away from her, Aiden needed to do something.

“Mia, run toward me!” Aiden shouted as he saw that the Minotaur’s strike was about to reach her as his arm was slowly coming down.

‘Why is he saying that and how does he know my name?’ She thought, not understanding how such a thing was even possible in the first place.

She hadn’t said her name to someone who looked like him, in fact, she had never had someone who resembled him in her life.

‘The fuck is she doing?’ Aiden cursed in his mind, frustrated that she wasn’t listening to him.

‘I don’t have the time to explain everything,’ Aiden thought as he continued running in her direction, wanting to save her.

He needed to know if she was the real one.

Then, it seemed that he found more of his energy reserves as Aiden accelerated even more, moving twice as fast as before.

The distance between him and Mia was now only a couple of metres, however, the hand of the Minotaur was also a couple of metres away from Mia.

Actually, it was a lot closer than that, probably only a metre away from the top of her head.

Aiden knew that she would be squashed like a bug if the Minotaur’s attack ever reached her which is why he decided to shout something else that would make him gain some time.

“Kneel down or something, I don’t know but fucking MOVE!” 

This time the tone in the voice of Aiden seemed to wake her up as she started getting closer to him, however, it seemed that it was too late as the hand of the Minotaur grazed her hair.

‘What was that?’ She thought as she looked behind her and saw the monster which was over 10 feet tall.

‘Was he trying to save me from that?’ Mia thought as she gave a soft glance at Aiden wondering why he was going to such lengths to save her.

Seeing that the Minotaur hadn’t succeeded in killing Mia, he was relieved as he finally reached her grabbing her in his arms.

“Just sit back and watch, I’ll deal with this,” whispered Aiden as he slowly put Mia on the ground.

Then, he glanced up toward the Minotaur who didn’t seem as confident as earlier as Aiden wasn’t able to see any smirks on his face.

‘I’ll make you suffer for what you tried to do,’ Aiden thought as there were lightning parks that were starting to come from his feet.
