Chapter 349: Chapter 349 The Action She Take.

While many other people were walking with blissful expressions, only Akane, who appeared out of nowhere, approached Hina with her darkened mood.

Hina was stupefied, as she had never seen this side of Akane before in the time she had known her. On the one hand, she was worried about what had happened to her, but it felt a bit repulsive to ask her what that was.

It was as if her instinct was telling her not to socialize herself with the girl.

This was the first time it had happened to Hina, which made her feel guilty toward her benefactors, who always cheered her up during those dark days.

"Big sis, Akane. You are alone?".

"Um".

Akane nods, feeling hesitant to say something as the atmosphere around them turns awkward. However, one thing keeps pushing Akane to march forward, and that is to talk with Hina, who seems to know him the best.

There are also her subordinates who have been tasked to search for a clue to his past, but sadly, none of them bear any fruit. It was as if someone had deleted his past history, even untouched by her organization, which moves behind the shadows.

"May I?".

"Go ahead".

At first, she felt hesitant, but when Hina gave her permission, Akane folded her feet to the side and took a seat beside her, making Xiao Lian dumbfounded, her cheeks bloated.

Xiao Lian's instinct began to kick, but it was not too repulsive. She wanted to chase the girl away, and before things started to turn bad for the food in her hands, she threw away the wary side of her and began to delve into the food once more, letting the two have the room.

"Then, what happened, big sis? You seem out of place for today?".

"Ah, nothing, it was just something had bothering me lately...".

The branched thought she had made her dumbfounded for a second as she glanced at a faraway distance.

The first time she met Soma was inside the club building when Hina shyly introduced him; at that time, she felt something was amiss about the boy, and it roused a bit of her intention.

Also, when she made contact with him to learn his nature, she faced something more impactful that greatly shook her heart and even branded him as someone worth considering for elimination. Even to this day, Akane can still remember the horrifying figure that is entirely out of this world.

It was menacing as if the whole of Evil were gathered into a single entity, and that was in the form of Soma. With no power to eliminate him, she tried to seek every way to show his true nature to the world, and as of today, there has been no result.

Because she moved behind the shadows, no, she was simply afraid of him. As of today, she wants to make sure that a person named Soma is worthy of being labelled as a target for elimination.

"Hina, can you...?".

"Hm? What is it, big sis?".

"No, I cannot just jump straight to ask her so obvious. I should be more careful not to offend her! Besides, it has been a long time since we could have a leisurely chat like this. Fuu, Ha, as usual, her smell is enticing me no matter what". Akane mumbled to herself as she shrank the distance between her and Hina.

Xiao Lian, who has a sharp sense, is choked with her food. This brings Hina's attention to her side, and she looks at her helplessly while getting a drink.

"You are eating too much, take your time, will you? Because, you are not a kid after all".

"Mm, fuuh, I felt relieve, thanks".

At a glance to Hina's side, she found Akane, with her normal expression, looking at her adorably, and the feeling of chill that crept into her heart had gone. "What was that earlier?"

Hiding behind the bright colour of festive outside, which was filled with cheer and laughter, a pair of boys and girls sat on a three-seater sofa behind a transparent glass. The soft and bouncing cushion beneath them embraced their bodies with comfort. A faint smell of nature, for the place was surrounded by wooden shelves, and a unique scent of paper enveloped the place in a tranquil atmosphere.

Serafina, who lay her head on top of Soma's lap, shifted her position as she faced his stomach. It's been a dozen minutes since the two kept that position, and somehow, Serafina is more spoiled than ever.

Whether intentional or not, she rubbed her cheek against his lap, sending a tingling sensation to his nerves. Because of her soft body and flowery smell that assaulted Soma's nose, it almost perched a tent on his pants if not for his skill in calming his nerves.

"Sera, do you have enough?".

Soma's calm voice echoed inside the desolated room. He placed his palm on her silky head and began to caress it tenderly, making the princess smile in glee and giggling.

"...Let's stay a bit longer".

"Are you sure, outside is more bustling than this place?".

"No, what fun is there where i can stay with my beloved side like this".

"Is that so?".

"Hm, I prefer it like this".

"I see".

Seeing her melting expression and as her partner, Soma could only sigh in resignation and keep entertaining the girl's whim.

Time passed peacefully; she hoped that it would stop until suddenly, she recalled the conversation they had earlier. Serafina shifted her face and letting herself face saw the ceiling.

"Soma?".

"Hmm, what is it?".

Serafina slightly hesitated to ask about what had been occupying his mind. However, she shook her head and braced herself for anything that would leave his mouth, for she wanted to help him within her own power.

"...Earlier on the phone, you seemed disturbed or even angry at something...".

Hearing that, the hand that was caressing her head halted, and she could see his calm eyes flicker for a moment.

"...".

However, Soma hesitated for a second, pondering if he should involve her or not.

That slight hesitation that lingers in his mind gets caught by Serafina. Her brows knit together, and she couldn't contain the anger that suddenly lit in her heart. Deep down, she understands his nature, who puts everything on the line to protect his family.

However, Serafina and the others feel it slightly infuriating and even despise him for his attitude, which seems to look down on them. The day she and the other girls saw him crying meekly at the mention of family.

They vow to themselves to help him in the best possible way they could have, even if that could bring harm to their beings.

The three of them did not mind that, for they knew the path Soma had taken was nothing but tremendously hard and excruciating as if walking on a sword hill, for he who bore a deep enmity by those strong figures which they couldn't touch.

Serafina raised her hand before pinching Soma's nose, bringing his face down to stare at her. That gesture and the way her eyes were blinking with anger cleared up the fog in his mind.

"That's right. Why am I hesitating right now when I personally had asked some people to help me before? I am not alone anymore." The hesitation in his mind vanished, and he smiled before telling of what had happened.

Soma began to tell everything from the first time he apprehended Jiang Wei, who had become demonized. Hearing that not only shocked Serafina but also angered her into keeping things to himself.

The meeting with the Jiang family's head, Roland and Viana scheme, who suddenly lets the demonized person be given back to his house instead of killing it. There are some points hidden about the involvement of another person, but overall, he told her everything that caused him to act like that earlier.

"I see. So, it was like that. No wonder, you mention the headmaster and Vice-headmaster with their names".

Serafina reluctantly woke up from her comfortable place and began to act by taking her phone and dialling her trustworthy friend.

The phone beeped several times before the person on the other side answered with a confused tone.

{Sera, what happened? You say you want to have some rest. It's rare for you to call me like this}

"Don't sweat the small details. I call you just to confirm something".

{What is it?}

"Does Roland and Viana is present in the Academy, right now?".

{...}

Silence hung for a couple of seconds as Lucy was too astonished to hear a rude remark her best friend had said.

{Sera, what the hell are you thinking calling the two of them with their names like that?}

"Like I said, don't sweat the small detail, just tell me!".

{...}

Lucy once again gasped as she could feel the serious tone entering her ears. This was not the first time Serafina had acted like this to the two of them behind their backs, but today, it seemed more extreme than usual.

After a momentarily pondering, Lucy sighed in resignation and opened her mouth.

{...The vice headmaster is gone for some personal business, and only Headmaster Roland is present, and he is in his office dealing with some important people. Are you satisfied now?}

"Yeah, thank you, Lucy. You should just ditch that unreasonable work you have and go flirt with your guy!".

{What are you...}

Before Lucy could vent her frustration for suddenly bringing up Leon's figure in the conversation, Serafina brutally cut off their conversation as she turned to Soma with a smile.

"It seemed Roland is present. What should we do?".

"?".
