"Danger''s not the question. It''s...uh..."


    Nash sighed, unable to continue.


    "Don''t you get sick of doing the same thing over and over again?!" Kat snapped impatiently right then.


    "I just want to go out, and there''s a martial elite in Mr. Lawrence escorting me. What''s going to happen?


    Do you really want me to go friendless?!"


    "Of course not. I just want you to make friends with normal—"


    "The way I see it, you''re the freak here!" Kat bellowed at Nash before storming off.


    Nash sighed again. "Oh, that child..."


    Frank nodded at him. "Don''t worry, Nash. She''ll be fine as long as I''m around."

    Nash stared at him in turn—Frank was exactly what he was worried about.


    However, he could not say it.


    Sighing, he handed Frank a small box and left without a word, his back slumped.


    Frank was left starting in confusion as he left, and he stiffened when he took a closer look at the box.


    "Nash."


    He called out, ready to exin himself when he realized what was going on, Kat had returned and


    started dragging him out by the arm. "Let''s go already! Why are you worried about that fossil!"


    "There''s been a misunderstanding—"


    "You can deal with that when you''re back!" Kat snapped, not epting exnations as she kept


    dragging him away.


    Soon, they arrived at a basement bar in West Morhen.


    A group of Kat''s friends already reserved a booth seat before Kat and Frank reached the bar, and a girl


    came up to greet Kat after she called her.


    "Over here, Kat!" The girl had wavy ck hair and a mild smile, with two adorable dimples on his


    cheeks.


    Kat smiled as she hurried over, and they hugged and giggled before Kat turned to Frank. "Ahem—Mr.


    Lawrence, this is Lily York. She''s my best friend and the lead singer of our band, The Spades!"


    Frank nodded, seeing that Kat was quite serious about it. "Hello.


    "Lily, this is my mentor, Frank Lawrence! You can just call him Mr. Lawrence."


    "Oh hello, Mr. Lawrence. Nice to meet you." Lily nodded politely, already showing that she was more


    well behaved than Kat.


    "Lily, what''s taking you so long?" A youth in a suit came just then, his face falling and turning hostile as


    soon as he saw Frank.


    Naturally, it was none other than Soren Lionheart himself.


    "Oh, Soren," Lily said. "Kat was just introducing her mentor to me. This is Mr. Lawrence—"


    "Save it." Soren raised a hand, stopping her impatiently. "I know."


    While Lily stared at them in confusion, Soren wheeled on Kat, frowning as he demanded jealously,


    "Why did you bring him here?"


    Kat frowned in turn, not caring for his jealous tone.


    While she somewhat had a good impression of and even admired Soren, she became repulsed after


    the other girls told her about what had happened just before Hux Darman pped Soren in the face.


    And Soren certainly did not hold a candle to Frank!
