223 Chapter 223
223 Chapter 223
Leislet was intending to do a prank on Scarlett who was still sleeping on the bed, oblivious to whatever bad schemes Leislet was planning.
The latter approached the bed and then spoke up with a deep voice.
"Oi, Scarlett, wake up." She said with a voice that resembled that of Acht. It wasn't very similar but close enough to trick a sleepy person.
The trick seemed to work as Scarlett opened her mouth and murmured.
"Just one minute, Acht."
Leislet smirked widely and replied.
"I see, so you won't give me a kiss then?" She said with a disappointed tone.
This was more than enough to make Scarlett comprehend that something was wrong but the word kiss made her brain ignore the whole sentence all together.
So, with closed eyes, she muttered.
"Ok, I will give you a kiss. Come closer." She said,
Leislet's smile became even more pronounced as she fought the urge to laugh out loud.
Then, she lifted her leg up and brought it near Scarlett's face. The other also pursed her lips ready to kiss Acht.
"Kiss my feet, bitch!" Leislet shouted and shoved her feet into Scarlett's face roughly making her open her eyes widely.
Immediately, she tried to grab Leislet's leg but the other was faster and retracted her leg quickly.
"Cough, cough…you fucking slut!" Scarlett cursed as she touched her mouth. It was very painful and almost broke one of her teeth.
"You get what you fucking deserve." Leislet chuckled loudly and ran away before Scarlett caught her.
"Come here, you coward!"
"Nope, hehehe."
The two ran across the whole house in a game of cat and mouse. Scarlett even took a pillow and threw it at Leislet with all of her strength.
A pillow was a harmless weapon but if you add the raw power at which it was launched then it might not be something anyone would like to get hit by.
"Tough luck," Leiselt said and dodged the hit before sending a pillow of hers flying toward Leislet.
And then, a pillow war ensued in the living room. A rain of pillows filled the whole room, getting thrown left and right.
When Acht came back to the living room, he found a huge mess. However, he didn't show any reaction at all. This was not the first time this happened and he couldn't bother to even speak about it.
"You two, time for breakfast. Stop playing." He said as if he was talking to two toddlers.
The two heard him and clicked their tongues, glaring at each other. Then, they left the war unfinished with no clear winner before walking to the table to eat.
Acht used his gravity powers to organize the room again. In less than 10 seconds, the whole room was back to its original form.
He then sat down and started eating.
"How many pillows did you guys even buy? This is way too much." He commented.
Leislet shook her head and replied.
"I didn't do that. This idiot did."
"Are you dumb? You were the one who bought 10 pillows." Scarlett retorted.
"Yes yes, idiot." Leislet rolled her eyes and ignored her completely.
"Sigh, I thought that during 5 years you guys would've at least become friends or at least not fight every time you come closer to each other. I guess I was wrong."
"No way! You are asking for the impossible, Acht! This bitch is my eternal enemy."
"I can't agree more."
Acht shook his head and looked at the window. His eyes glown faintly as he eyed the world outside.
"Somehow, 5 years passed in a breeze. I didn't even feel the passing of time here. Heh, is that a curse or a blessing?" He muttered under his breath.
The others heard him and shook their heads with a slightly sad look.
"True, 5 years passed way too quickly. I never had such a happy time in my life." Leislet murmured with a regretful tone.
"I guess this shows that no matter how good your life is, it will come to an end at some point," Scarlett added.
The three fell silent for a good 20 seconds recalling the memories they shared in this place. They went everywhere and experienced everything this place had to offer.
It was indeed a very fun time. Every day was refreshing with new things to do and many things to experience. None of them thought about what the future held for them or what they had to do. They just went with the flow and it worked perfectly.
Such a life was a pure blessing in every sense of the word.
"Anyway, finish the food quickly. We have work to do." He said as he picked up his plate and walked away.
A few minutes after that, the three walked out of the house.
Coincidentally, they met Mia who was also coming toward the house.
"Acht!!" She said excitedly and ran closer to him. She then jumped in his embrace.
Acht smiled and patted her head.
"Good morning, Mia." He said.
"Hehehe, good morning." She giggled happily like a puppy and enjoyed his soft pats for a moment. But, her fun time was ruined quickly.
"Get off him!" Leislet said as she yanked her away.
"Hey! What are you doing?!" Mia shouted with a glare.
"Don't hug him like that out of nowhere. Know your place!" Leislet replied.
"It's none of your business. I came here to say hi to Acht."
"That doesn't give you the right to hug him!"
Mia looked at her for a moment before an idea popped into her head. After that, she contorted her face and created fake tears.
"Acht, hick…Leislet is hick…bullying me." She said and hugged him again as she cried in his embrace.
"Sigh, Leislet, she is just a small girl…don't scream at her like that." He said as he patted her head again for her to calm down.
"But, but…"
"No buts, we need to move now. Stop wasting time like that."
Leislet felt her anger boil as she looked at Mia. The latter also looked back at her and with a small smile, she muttered for only Leislet to hear her.
"Tehee, you get what you deserve." She then ran away following Acht with an innocent smile.
"You!!!!"
She could only swallow her anger and walk after them in a very sour mood. She was somehow beaten not by Scarlett but by a small girl.
Pure humiliation!
