Author's Reincarnation in a Fantasy Setting

Chapter 84 Rooftop [3]



"I don't want to spell it."

"What?" Alada said in surprise. "What does that means?"

"I-I'm sorry, but there's still a possibility that you don't know the actual reason behind all my actions, the chances are very slim I believe but it's still there. So, if by chance you don't know about what's going on between me and Leon, then I don't want to spill the beans myself."

"…Ah I get it, I get it," Alada repeated multiple times, and then.

<strong>-Smack!</strong>

Ellyn was hit with a punch on her face. She accidentally bit her lips and blood came streaming down. The punch indeed was Alada's doing.

Ellyn felt intense pain, but this was not the end of it.

<strong>-Slap!</strong>

Alada slapped her hard with all the force she could gather, and it was not one slap. Again and again and again, one after another, she kept slapping her until her cheeks turned red and slightly swollen.

At this point, Ellyn's face was a mess, with her tears, blood, and the bangs of her hair that covered her face.

"I know exactly why you don't want to spell it out…because you are doing something so bad that even you are ashamed of speaking it out of your fucking mouth! All you are doing is using Leon for your own benefit and safety, like, he is some kind of tool to you. And you will throw him aside after you are done…just like you did with your old boyfriend."

Again, some of Zero's words were mixed in but the majority of it was just Alada speaking her mind out. After all, she was also in love; letting your emotions take control at these times was not that unusual.

Though, something clicked in Ellyn's mind. The claims Alada was making were pretty much true but one thing she said was weird, something she hadn't heard of before, leaving aside doing it.

"W-What do you mean by my old boyfriend?" she asked as she slowly gathered up some strength and stood straight while leaning against the wall—she was able to do this since no one was hitting her now.

She was genuinely asking what she didn't know about, but her question only provided the flames of anger within Alada with pure oxygen.

"The hell you saying!" she shouted, grabbing Ellyn from her collar and pushing her against the wall. "He mattered so less to you that you completely forgot about him? At this point I'm not even angry; I'm disgusted by how low you can fall."

Alada didn't harbor any sympathy for Zero—or the fabricated character he created to be precise, but one thing was common in her and his situation. Love was common in both of them.

After all, she was also on the yandere side so probably she was enraged by how Ellyn was dealing with love and using it to her own benefit.

…Or maybe she just wanted an excuse to beat the shit out of her.

"W-Wait! I really don't know anything about this…I never had a boyfriend, to begin with," Ellyn claimed. Obviously, she won't know about this 'boyfriend' since he didn't exist.

"Yeah, why would you remember something trivial like that, right? After all, changing boyfriends must be an everyday thing for you," said Alada as she slowly placed her hand around Ellyn's neck.

"Ohh! I so much pity him," Seiren sarcastically commented from the side.

"I want to murder this girl right here if I can," Wrena voiced, staring furiously at Ellyn.

"Well, I can do that for you. Just let me have Leon then," Alada implied and began tightening her grip around Ellyn's neck.

"H-Hey...…W-Wa...Stop! Please!"

Ellyn begged as the air stopped reaching to her lungs and she started choking with every passing second.

"Hahaha! Die you bitch! This is what you deserve! You shouldn't have been born, to begin with," Alada laughed as she watched Ellyn with amusement.

The pressure on Ellyn's lungs increased, her heart started beating faster and her eyes were bulging out. She desperately tried to resist and free herself from Alada's grip, shaking Alada's hand in the hope to throw her off.

She could've used magic but that was an option of the past. Right now she was not in the mindset to focus on the spell and wasn't able to use magic like breathing as Zero does.

Her time was running out, her face became red; she tried to gasp for air but it was of no use. Alada was tightening her grip and squeezing her neck with pleasure.

"Stop!"

Wrena held and pulled Alada's hand and freed Ellyn from her grip. "What the hell are you doing?" Alada asked angrily as she looked at Wrena with her narrowed eyes.

"Calm down Alada, this is not you. First of all, killing her might be an interesting approach to end this matter for all eternity but that will cause many more problems than it will solve; you remember we are in the academy, right? And lastly, if killing her means handing over Leon to you and it's a big fat no."

Alada looked at the hand she was choking Ellyn with, then with a deep breath, she calmed herself. "Sorry, that's a bit out of line for me…But what should we do with her?" she asked, glancing at Ellyn was now sitting on the floor, breathing heavily.

"Oh! I might have a good idea for that," Seiren stated with a snap of her fingers.

"What is it?" Alada asked hurriedly.

"Let's take her clothes off and then make her walk in the corridor like that, fully naked. I think that will be good for the image of Ms. Heiress."

"Hmmm, that's a nice idea. But won't that bring trouble to us?"

"No, it won't really," Seiren replied as she stood beside Alada and put a hand on her shoulder.

"You see, all we have to do is take her clothes off. After that, we can leave her be. I mean, she will eventually have to go down, right? Not like she will be able to stay here forever. And she can't give our names to the teachers because, well, she knows very well what will happen if she did that…don't you, Ellyn?"

Seiren shot a glance at Ellyn to which she averted her eyes and without a reply, looked down.
