The Villain's Story

Chapter 575 [575] Serena 2.0

Chapter 575  [575] Serena 2.0

The thorns tightened around me neck and Catherine's bloodthirsty face was right in front of mine.

"Poison?"

I muttered, feeling some weird substance enter my body. The thorns exuded a poison gas that entered my body through my nostrils. "I'm giving you one last chance."

She said, as the intensity multiplied several folds. Her hair grew shades darker and her eyes were still the same. It wasn't a pleasing sight. The layers of makeup she had were blown away by her mana, revealing a beautiful face underneath, but one that wasn't like Sabrina's.

Only minor similarities.

'So she has poison as an element as well, huh…'

I thought. I should have used Dragon eyes more thoughtfully, and checked the entirety of this girl's stats. An honest mistake of mine. Nonetheless, whatever she was doing was actually fun.

Most of Earth knows that I have the bloodline of a phoenix or a dragon, perhaps even both. I'm not naive enough to believe that perhaps she was living under a rock this entire time and was unaware… But the fact she used poison on someone like me. Either she was incredibly confident in her own skills, or just stupid.

"Haha."

I chuckled, which garnered a weird gaze from Catherine, who continued with her menacing tone.

"Break up with her…and tell her to come to me."

Ignoring her, I looked around the café.

'No one here… Damn, she was quick.'

As expected, not a single soul was present in the café. She must have bought them off prior to our arrival. Pretty quick.

Oh well, whatever poison she has used has no effect on me, at most it possesses an irritating smell. The immune system of dragon's is quite tough, and even if it failed, I still had the detoxifying powers of my bloodline… The only thing I need to wary of are those weird flowers back at Gigantum.

"You have one day. Break up with my sister and give her to m-'

"Sorry, But I have no intention of doing that."

I interrupted her. It seems the effect of the poison wasn't paralysis, considering how she didn't seem surprised that I could speak. I tested her more.

"She's quite beautiful, and it's obvious both of us share the same feelings for one another."

The thorns tried to tighten themselves. But I quickly overrode her mana control and changed the attribute of the magic that had latched onto me. Ice covered them, and in a moment they grabbed Catherine instead.

I massaged my neck, it wasn't throbbing or anything like that. There wasn't even a need to do it. I just did it to fuck with her.

I bound her and 'peacefully' made her sit again. She opened her mouth, but a quick ball of ice shut her up really quick.

"You bought the staff here pretty quickly."

I mused as I tried to pick up my drink

"..."

It had fallen over and spilled due to the ruckus she had caused. Sighing to myself, I thought.

'Now, how do I deal with you…'

The only good and working solution is to kill her. If she's anything like Serena, that is the way to do it… But the problem is I can't just kill her. She's Sabrina's niece, after all, and this is Shield. I can't kill her for many reasons.

It's the best solution...but sadly I can't use it. Thinking about it some more, I decided to scare her a little.

Increasing the mana in the surrounding atmosphere, I pressured her. It was like a massive weight was on her shoulders, dragging her down. Then, I spoke.

"I'll do something you don't ever want to happen to you if you bother us more."

"You fucker! I knew you were swine."

"..."

Well, that failed. She swallowed the ice whole and spat curse after curse. Scaring her didn't do the trick at all. I didn't expect it to work as well as I wanted...but this was out of my expectations.

"Haaa..."

"You-!"

"Quiet."

I quietened her once more, and thought. 'Scaring her doesn't work... Should I try to reach a compromise? No... That wouldn't work with individuals like her.'

No matter what I tried to think of, the only logical solution was to kill her and hide her body.

[Supreme Dragon of Frost, Lanesha, is startled to think that is the 'logical' solution.]

What can I do? She's fucking crazy over her own aunt. I don't blame her, but still. That's my girlfriend that is being discussed her. Either, the most I can do is perhaps let Sabrina handle it... Or just deal with her. Considering how freaky she is, I don't want Sabrina any closer to her than she is already...

Even though I knew it wouldn't work, I still tried to reach a compromise.

"Listen, I won't do anything liker

Yeah, It was my fault for even trying. I was entertained by the possibility of hope.

'Lanesha, is it possible to make Sabrina forget that she ever had a niece? I can kill her off ea-'

[Supreme Dragon of Frost, Lanesha is sad you would even think of such a thing.]

The girl did her best to free herself, but it was all to no avail, staring at her desperate and futile efforts, an idea popped up in my mind... One that I didn't like to use.

What must be done to take care of individuals who are crazy for another? Like Serena or Catherine are? Scaring them would not work, neither can a compromise can be reached. But what if instead of threatening the individual...

Perhaps...using the individual they cherish would work. But that's despicable considering the individual in question is Sabrina.

Do I have to do it? Or must I deal with a lifetime of her bothering me? I don't want that. And this doesn't have a high chance of success as well...

I guess... I have to take some form of risk here.

******

"Damned bitch."

I cursed as I looked at my tattered uniform, although the thorns posed no danger to me at all, they ripped my uniform apart at multiple places, I probably need to get a new one now...

So bothersome. Well, at least the issue has been temporarily fixed...

As I took a stroll through shield, going back to class, I spotted yet a few more students who had difficulty walking. It couldn't be seen by the average Joe... But my eyes could see it. All first-years and second years.

"..."

What really got to me, was all of them were from my guild. Thinking about this situation a little bit more, I decided to make a call using my communicator.
