I Don’t Want This Bad Ending

Chapter 58: Dazed



Chapter 58: Dazed

***

SWISH!

A battle between Evelyn and Bern commences as the long sword swings to strike in Evelyn's head without a moment's notice.

"Hey!!!! Are you trying to kill me?!" She spat nervous words as the long sword crash and made a loud metal sound because of their sword touching.

"But see... It didn't cut your head. I knew you could defend it~" He smirks as he was satisfied by her quick defense.

"This psycho...!" She mumbled.

The two, step away from each other, and the crowd was stunned as the quick event that happens in the blink of an eye.

They're also in awe of Evelyn who defended herself in the most critical moment with quick actions and quick reflexes.

Bern and Evelyn looked at each other. Sizing their enemies, trying to find an opening. Evelyn quickly launches an attack when Bern deliberately gave a false opening.

Using her full body, she kicks his side and turns around to kick his head but to no avail, only his long arms touched the attacks.

She groaned in irritation while Bern smiled like a devil who wants to play a game with his newly found toy.

"Now, this is unexpected..." He said as he approached her and swings his sword again to her head.

Evelyn saw it coming and in defense quickly raised her sword but what touched her was a kick from her stomach. She flew a few feet away before stumbling and plopped down to her butt.

"O-ouch!" She grips her abdomen as it stings because of the impact.

"Okay... I guess that's enough!" Bern said as he reaches his hand to Evelyn.

"Great job! You are his student!" He continued. Evelyn looked at him and scowl.

He attacked her with full intent to hurt her and without her quick reflexes, her head must have rolled by now.

"You freaking piece of ---" she didn't continue and only glared at the big hands that were laid in front of her and she strokes his big hand -tak! and stand by herself.

"Are you okay, Eve?" Cathy runs to her side while also giving a death glare to Bern. He only smirks at them.

"What do you think you doing? What if Eve got hurt?!" She scolds the man.

"I'm not going to hurt her... I will stop if I didn't see her pulling her own sword in defense. And besides..." He said while he glances at Evelyn.

"Does it hurt?" He continued.

Evelyn felt like this man only knows how to beat someone then again, he was his mentor's teacher. The two were alike. So, she was sure that he was only curious to know her strength but that didn't mean that he needs to kick hard!

"Of course it hurts, I'm not made of steel, you piece of shhh...! Damnit!" Evelyn bites her lips and winches at the pain.

He laughed so loud that when Evelyn glanced around, everyone has the same reaction.

Their narrow brows that almost ironed flat and the visible wrinkles in the forehead caused by the question mark inside their heads...

'What's this psycho laughing about?' All of them seem to unite with this thought.

He dismissively waves his hand and looked at Evelyn.

"You're an interesting one... Ah! This batch of fresh brats will be entertaining." Bern said.

"We're not a freaking circus show! Pinky!" Evelyn replied that made Bern laugh again.

He walked away leaving everyone dumbfounded.

After I become a punching bag for my sunavabeech instructor, I went to my dormitory for a quick break and a change of clothes.

As I walk to the main building's first floor hallway, where the dreamy-like-themed interior faced me, I felt a slight tinge as I'm feeling a sense of freedom for the first time in this world.

It's now afternoon, and the sun is at its peak in gracing us with its warm rays. I peek at the floor to ceiling window and saw a group of noble ladies eating and having a tea party in the main garden. It was so lovely to look at. I was envious at the moment...

But in a closer look, I saw a pink hair lady wearing a one-piece dress, the blue linings at every edge where a red ribbon is placed at the center of her chest. She innocently laughs among the ladies and the roses, tulips, and carnation flowers were made for the background to when she laughs.

It felt straight out of a book scene. Elise, the heroine of the novel was said to be always the center of attention.

No wonder she gains the attention of all the male leads. That's the power of the blessed character.

I mean this world was dedicated to her.

As I begin to continue my walk I felt the gazes of the people behind my back. Because I was always the center of contempt to my family and servants, I became used to the stares but I also heightened my senses when it comes to despising. And what I'm sensing right now was exactly that.

I looked back. And everyone avoided my gazes.

So, I guess it's true. They loathe me... But for what reason? I just started attending the school for goodness sake!

I didn't even encounter Elise, and I ABSOLUTELY didn't bully her. So what the hell is the REASON?

I clicked my tongue in annoyance and went to the second floor of the building where my second class will take place.

I opened the back door of the wooden double doors with care. I don't want to cause any disturbances and I want to silently enter the room.

What I saw was the teacher's desk below and the tables for students were in ascending form. Like the ones in universities.

I search for a vacant sit and saw a pair of blue eyes, his handsome poreless face, and his glistening black hair that reflected because of the sunlight. His well-proportioned muscle and his face resting in his slender hands.

It felt like I'm looking at a photoshoot for a male idol. I was dazed for a moment before I gain my senses again.

Silvester was looking at me and he's waving his hands. I looked back to see if he's waving at someone else, but I saw nothing. So I pointed my finger at me, gesturing if it was for me.

He nods and he charmingly laughs at me. I was confused for a moment before I walk myself to his place.

"Why are you laughing?" I said. I was standing in front of him while his face still rested on his palm.

He tilts his head.

"I just saw you crumpled your face and you looked confused when I wave my hand at you. It was amusing... Haha"

He laughs again that it made me lose my focus.

'Damnit! The effects of male leads are top-notched! I thought I was immune because of my brother and father!' I left my thoughts and begun to concentrate on our talk.

I raise one of my brows when I heard his explanation.

"Of course, I'll be confused. Because some guy is waving his hands at me... Who wouldn't get perplexed at that?" I replied.

He looked at me and point at the vacant chair.

"Sit with me." He smiled like an innocent boy while he said that.

I felt suspicious at the sudden kindness, but then again... He's the least dangerous among the male lead.

So, maybe I can associate myself with him when I'm in class.

I place my notebook down and gently took a seat beside him, and while doing so, his stare was intently stuck at every move I make. It made me conscious.

"Why are you looking at me like that..." I said

"Why? I can't look?" He slightly raised his forehead while his eyes were opening wide, his faking a shocked look.

I narrowed my brows to frown.

"I never said that... It just... No, nothing. Nevermind"

I stop myself from saying that it was embarrassing to be looked at. Though I'm used to having to disdain gaze, I'm not used to his stare.

"Why? I'm just admiring your gracefulness..." He said without looking a bit embarrassed about what he spoke.

I turn my head in shock. I stare at his ocean eyes and felt that I would drown if I look any longer so I turn my head again to the front.

"I-is that so... Thank you!"

I heard him chuckle and I also felt ashamed that I stutter that my face was heating up in embarrassment!

While the awkward silence enveloped us two, I heard running footsteps drawing near the wooden double doors.

-Bang!

I saw a young boy panting, his in his training clothes and I assume that he's in the Knight class as I didn't see him in my class before. He was frantically searching for someone, as his green hair flaunts too much with his head turning to look around.

He stares in my direction and I also looked at him, he walks in a hurry and when he's in front of me he opens his mouth to speak.

"Are you lady Evelyn?" The green lanky boy said.

"Yes... And who might you be?" I inquired.

"You don't need to know about me..."

I raise one of my brows at his rudeness but what came next soon made me stand up.

"Sir Gab was in the headmaster's office... He got into a fight and he might be expelled!!"

"What?!"
