Reincarnated as the Villainess's attendant

Chapter 268 – The Aftermath (part 3)

While being carried by the teacher Auequas through the empty hallways, Burushi prayed that the amount of mana she regained would be enough to help Zoemi, whatever the wounds he had suffered.

The elderly woman brought her to a room that looked like it was a resting room for servants, there were chairs and tables here and there and even a few couches, and the blond girl was sure that she never was there or even seen it before.

"Ah…!"

|He doesn't look all that bad… did he suffer internal damage…?!|

On one of them, Burushiitto spotted Zoemi and gasped, while her thoughts raced in an attempt to figure out what was wrong with him and which spell should she use to heal him the most efficient way before even examining him.

The black-haired boy himself seemed to be sleeping, although he was greenishly pale as if he was nauseous too, still there were no traces of any major discomfort…

"Alright, now get me over to him so I can use my… Eh…?"

The blond heroine reached her hand towards the black-haired boy but the elderly teacher who was carrying her just ghosted Zoemi as if the black-haired boy didn't exist.

"…what is this supposed to…?"

Burushi shook her head, lifting her torso and staring at the brown-haired teacher, stupefied.

And then she looked to the front and she saw a whole bunch of teachers crowded in front of one of the tables.

"I've brought her!"

The woman who was carrying the heroine exclaimed and the group of teachers parted to let them in.

"…!"

The heroine's body stiffened at the sight of what was on the table.

It was… It was…!

"Studnet Burushiitto…! You must save young lord Derizno…!"

Teacher Auequas called out with tears in her eyes while swaying on her feet and placed the heroine on the table by the body.

For a few seconds, Burushi could see anything, her vision simply went black.

Then slowly everything returned to normal and she took a closer look at what was in front of her.

None other than Xeonith was sprawled on the table next to her.

"…pffft…!"

|SERVES YOUR RIGHT!|

The sudden jolt that the blond-haired heroine managed to pass off as feeling sick and not laughing, didn't change the fact that seeing the person who tormented her like ha was pure joy.

Speak about karma.

"Student Buru…!"

"What am I supposed to do? He is clearly dead, look all of that damage."

Teacher Auequas gasped while heavily sitting down on the chair provided by another teacher, and was splendidly cut short by Burushi's cold voice.

"I thought so at first, but that is not the case, miss."

"…"

But unfortunately, someone else started talking, a blue-haired male teacher – he pointed out at Xeonith covered in half-melted ice and frost but somehow, only appearing to be dead.

With just a slightly closer inspection it turned out that the brown-haired boy's chest was going up and down in the rhythm of his breath.

That small movement was proof of Xeonith being still alive – which was truly impressing since most of his intestines were neatly placed just a bit under his ripped torso.

If Burushiitto wanted to, she could have looked inside him and observed the remaining internal organs without much obstruction.

There was no pelvis but the legs were placed on the table in such a way as if the missing part was still there.

"…"

Burushiitto covered her mouth with her hands and hung her head down, her shoulders started to shake uncontrollably.

"Miss, I know it looks horrible, but you are literally the only person we can count on right now."

The blue-haired teacher insisted with a serious face.

"…"

No one could see the heroine's face.

And it was for the best… for her…

|HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!|

Burushiitto was shaking from the laughter.

She was laughing so hard that if she didn't block her mouth and nose a burst of maniacal laughter would escape her and alarm everyone in the room.

|It's amazing! Amazing! How come such a magnificent thing could have happened!? Ahahaha…! Is this a blessing? It's a blessing! A divine punishment came onto this vile piece of shit…! NO, not divine – it's Zoemi! It must have been Zoemi's doing no doubt!|

She felt such a wild euphoria that she stopped feeling any pain and her heart became light as a feather.

Although, soon the lightness changed into the burden of annoyance and anger… and vengeance…

"Miss Burushiitto, please heal him…!"

The elderly brown-haired woman joined in and pleaded…

"…"

Burushiitto glared at her from behind the curtain of her blond hair.

|No one else can save him? I am his only chance? Oh, but that wretched hag had no trouble calling me a cheat and quack before, and now everyone seems to put their faith in me? Heal him…? HIM!? Oh, I'll heal him, just you wait…!|

She grinned to herself and extended her hands.

"Check-up."

She touched Xeonith's cold body and cast her spell.

After all, she wanted to make sure there was absolutely no chance for his survival…

"…"

Thanks to her initial spell, detailed information about her patient's medical state flooded her mind.

Funny thing was that even though his legs weren't attached any more information about them still appeared like normal.

"…Eh…?"

"What? What is it!?"

Heroine flinched and exclaimed loudly and the surrounding teachers quickly picked up on it.

But the heroine didn't answer and closed her eyes.

|Why there are traces of the darkness attribute mana outside his body but nothing like that on the inside…? What exactly happened to him, I'll have to ask him about it later – either way – good job Zoemi!|

Burushi opened her eyes and glanced back in Zoemi's direction holding herself back from showing him thumbs up.

|He must have gone after Xeonith and actually lead the murderous ice magician to kill Xeonith…!|

Even though was aware that most of the things the black-haired boy did, he did for Miriette, a warm feeling spread in her chest when she thought about the lengths to what Zoemi had to go to accomplish the task of getting Xeonith to this state…

|Now… I can't let his hard work go to waste, can I? Old hag, you called me a quack so watch carefully – this is how you REALLY botch the healing procedure!|

There was no time to waste and Burushi knew exactly what she should do.

Without any hesitation, she firmly grabbed the pink weaves of the intestines and shoved them right back inside the Xeonith's torso as they were already almost thawed and were starting to stink

"Heal!"

The blond heroine cast her spell and focused on the areas she wanted to pretty up…

…pretty up, and not help…

"Ah…!"

Teacher Auequas gasped when the fresh skin started covering the ripped stomach.

"…"

Meanwhile, the blond heroine was focusing all of her attention on making sure that she only affects the cosmetics side of the wound and not actually healing any of the problems.

She made sure to regenerate the skin as best as she could so that it would look like she actually tried to save Xeonith's life.

Burushi even went ahead and roughly restored the skeletal structure although she didn't really care for the bones in the first place.

For the onlookers, it looked just as if she was trying to connect the leg.

"That's too much…"

After connecting the intestines just a little bit too much – making all the blood vessels clog and completely messing up with the connections between organs – all while making sure that in case someone would inspect the body, they would be unable to pin the guilt on her, she pushed the leg aside.

"But…!"

The brown-haired teacher cried, desperately stopping the loose limb from tumbling off the table.

"His life or his legs? Which one do you want!?"

Burushi shouted at the woman.

"L-life! Of course life! Save him, please…!"

The woman flinched and yelped, suddenly treating the blond girl with the respect that she had never shown her before.

|…that's what I call the work well messed up… Now, the one thing left to do is let him thaw so that his body will finish him off by itself…|

The heroine's work was already done, Xeonith would die on his own anyway…

|No… I want to do it…! I want to finish him off directly…!|

But then Burushi gritted her teeth and placed both of her hands on Xeonith's chest – which made her look as if she really was doing her best to save the brown-haired boy.

"Re- generate…!"

"S-student Burushiitto?!"

The blond girl cast another one of her spells and her body slumped to the side – she was quickly caught and put on the available couch right next to the one that Zoemi was on.

For everyone present, it honestly looked like she just used a powerful healing spell and passed out due to the mana depletion and overall exhaustion.

They thought that her final spell would aid the natural regenerative abilities of the organism.

The truth layed elsewhere…

The 're' she said wasn't a part of her incantation at all.

Burushi's 'generate' spell had a vastly different effect than regenerate.

It forced the red blood cells in Xeonith's body to multiply to a ridiculous extent which in turn caused a nice big blood clot to be created inside Xeonith's veins and sent straight into Xeonith's heart causing a heart attack.

Funnily enough, that spell wasn't mana hungry, strong, or complicated to use, so the girl simply faked losing consciousness and had to be careful to not out herself.

"His complexion looks far better already."

"That variant attribute really is something huh…"

The teachers who were convinced that everything would be fine fell for the little trick that Burushi played and started chatting, audibly relieved…

…while Xeonith was already dead…

|That's what you get for asking the victim to heal their assailant!|

And Burushiitto was laying on the couch with a big satisfied smile hidden behind the curtain of her blond hair.
