After Kireina left and ended ignoring Frank's request, he felt slightly heartbroken.
But at the sa ti, he seed to have regained so hope as well, and learned a couple of things.
One of them is that he had to simply "keep living his best life" and continue moving forward with whatever life throws at him.
Kireina definitely knew more about this, but it seed she was risking her own existence or sothing if she were to talk about it.
So she ended remaining quite cryptic, although she gave him a few hints at the end.
"Go to the Corrupted Domains, any that appears in this city, you'll unravel the truth as you fight for your life."
It seed that directly intervening wasn't her way of doing things, and with the
mories/dreams of what he knew about her, Frank could deduce this might be her own way to help him.
Whatever was going on in Tokyo, the Corrupted Domains could be the key for him to learn more about "the truth".
Back then he was surprised she knew this though.
"You know about the Corrupted Domains?! Wait, are you also involved in the Underworld?"
Kireina only smiled back at him, and didn't respond, but it was pretty much her saying "yes, and I know a lot more".
"Do you belong to so organization or...?"
"If I did, wouldn't it be unbeneficial for us to reveal more of this then? I think I've said and implied enough, the rest depends on you, Frank."
"That's... Okay..."
After that, she went back with her friends, and wouldn't even pay attention to him anymore. She was both mysterious, charming, sexy, and at the sa ti, colder than Harumi.
"Haahh... She's even harder to get through than Harumi," he sighed. "Well, whatever. Hopefully today there won't be any issues."
Harumi and Erika were already at the cafeteria eating and chatting, and without Matsuo around, Frank felt pretty lonely.
"I should bring them sothing, so they aren't mad at ..."
Frank still felt their reaction was a bit excessive, but the girls wanted his attention, he knew that, so going after another girl kind of annoyed them.
Won were like that, he thought.
He bought himself a cappuccino, while he also purchased three muffins of strawberry flavor, banana chocolate chips flavor, and lastly, white chocolate chips flavor.
"Hey," he sat down near Harumi. "Sorry about leaving for a while, I had so things I needed to ask Kireina."
"Huh, is that so..." said Harumi, giving him a side eye.
"So did you hook up with her or sothing?" Erika asked teasingly.
"There wasn't any of such things happening, it was a serious conversation, I swear," sighed Frank. "I bough so muffins, do you want so?"
Harumi and Erika's hands rushed towards the muffins, as Harumi took the strawberry one and Erika the banana one.
"I guess you were hungry," he giggled.
"So what did you talk with her that was so important? She literally just ca to school yesterday," said Harumi, looking slightly annoyed as she ate the muffin, filling her cheeks like a hamster.
"It was about... Well, sothing private," said Frank. "I can't really... talk about it. I an, I could but you won't really understand no matter how hard I try to explain."
"Huh? What?" Erika asked, wondering what the hell did Frank even ant with that. "The hell do you an with that, Franky?"
"Don't call Franky..." Frank didn't like that nickna. "It's sothing that has to do with... well, my perception of reality."
"Huh?"
Harumi and Erika glanced at one another.
They felt like Frank was just joking with them at this point...
"What do you an?" Harumi wondered. "Your perception of reality?"
"It's strange I know," nodded Frank. "It has to do with strange mories or... dreams I've had. Of the future."
"The future?!" Harumi asked. "Wait, do you have clairvoyance powers or sothing?"
"I don't know but these mories... or dreams, I can recall them so well, they feel like they were things I already lived," said Frank. "And I think I might have lived them, yeah..." "Okaaay, that sounds interesting," smiled Erika. "Tell us more!"
"Uh..." Frank felt a bit uncomfortable about talking these things. "Fine, but don't laugh at ..."
He ended telling them a couple of these things that would happen in the future, including the attack into his family, the underworld organization that was targeting him, and trying to seek his powers for their own good, and also a few other things.
He also revealed to them the power of his world-traveling system, which was currently "off- line" as he couldn't use it to travel sowhere else.
It was all a hard pill to swallow, and a big one at that, but Harumi quickly believed Frank, although Erika, who had little ti to bond with him, was skeptical, she still wanted to believe him mostly because Harumi trusted him a lot... and because he slled nice according to the werewolf princess.
"That's... quite a lot of things," Harumi said. "But... After what we've gone through yesterday, and after seeing you fight, it was as if you've indeed beco a different person entirely from before. You changed a lot Frank. Your fighting style, everything. It is most likely because of these mories you've regained."
"So you believe ," said Frank, sighing in relief. "Thank you Harumi, at least I can trust you with this secret... And Erika?"
"I... Well, I'll keep it a secret, sure, not like telling anybody about this insanity will ever make them believe it," said Erika, shrugging. "It still feels to like you're bullshitting, but your sll is not telling you were lying."
"You can detect things like that through sll?!" Frank was shocked.
"Heheh, when people lie their heart rate increases, which makes their body fluids co out rapidly, sotis they'll even begin sweating a bit, their breathing, everything," said Erika. "It's easy to spot a liar like this. But you're a surprisingly honest person, Frank. A rare thing in the underworld."
"Well, thanks," Frank nodded. "Anyways, that's all... Would you two help out... find out
more?"
"Sure, why not," Harumi shrugged. "We'll do missions together anyways. My mother already
gave permission."
"Okay! I'm bored anyways!" said the gyaru werewolf girl, winking at Frank.
Once classes ca to an end, Frank made his way back to the Monk Clan to et Matsuo.
