Devil?
“My weight was taken away.”
“…”
“It doesn’t matter if you can’t understand it. I know that with your tiny brain, you wouldn’t be able to understand such a complicated matter. Thus, Linley Bart… Linley Bart…”
Elizabeth kept repeating his name.
“I don’t have any weight at all. However, I’m not really in a difficult position as no one knows my secret. Not even the principal, Xibolai, the dean, Atais, or even my mentor, Wilson knows about it. Thus for now, only you know of this secret, student Linley Bart.”
“…”
“Then, in order for you to remain silent, what should I do? For my sake, what should I do? Should I tear your mouth apart? Or should I make you swear to keep it a secret? Student Linley Bart?”
A knife.
A Needle.
Calmly using such a method to deal with her childhood sweetheart and her childhood friend. He couldn’t believe that there was actually had such a person. Linley Bart felt that when he was young, he was lucky to even be able to survive under her hands.
“The doctors said that the reason why I am like this is unclear. Rather than saying that, it’s better to say that there’s no reason for it. Even though I had disregarded the humiliation of letting others examine my body, I did not manage to find the solution to my problem. All the doctors merely named the possibilities, but never a proper solution.”
Elizabeth mocked herself.
“Don’t you think it’s too stupid? When I was young, I was still an ordinary and cute girl.”
“…”
Let’s not talk about whether she was cute.
But Elizabeth had never been an ordinary child.
She was too talented in magic and had been regarded as a genius since she was young.
She was even thought to have the potential to become a Holy Magister.
But for a genius sorcerer like her to become like this was something which Linley Bart had never imagined.
These memories came from Linley’s memories.
Speaking of which, there was no deep hatred between them.
At most, they had some conversations when they were young.
But…
Linley Bart suddenly remembered that Elizabeth was not on the list of the top ten students.
It should be said that she did not participate in the internal competition at all.
But with her strength, it should not be a problem for her to get first or second place.
Did she not participate in the competition because she lost her weight?
Was there any connection between losing weight and using magic?
This had even made her give up such an important opportunity to participate in the Five Great Sorcery Academy Competition. After all, the event was the highest honor for sorcerers. If one didn’t have sufficient a reason, one wouldn’t readily give up the chance.
No sorcerer could give up so easily.
“Sympathy? How gentle.”
Elizabeth said as though she had thrown away Linley Bart’s pity.
“But I don’t need any gentleness.”
Elizabeth made such a declaration.
“All I want is silence and no concern, just the way it was previously. I do not need other people’s pity and care.”
Elizabeth smiled.
“If you can remain silent and not care about what you have just found out, nod twice. Student Linley Bart, if you make any other actions, you will be viewed as having done an act of enmity, and will be immediately attacked.”
Wasn’t there no other choice?
Linley Bart believed Elizabeth’s words. This wasn’t just a threat. The needle and knife were still in his mouth.
Cold sweat filled his back.
He nodded twice.
“Understood.”
Elizabeth seemed relieved.
There was no other choice given and no room for negotiation. The only way was to agree with the other party’s request.
“Thank you.”
Elizabeth held her knife tightly and slowly pulled it out carefully without doing anything funny.
Next was the needle.
“Ah!”
There was nothing to say.
All he felt was pain.
Elizabeth had stabbed the needle with all her might into his mouth previously.
Linley Bart used his hand to cover his mouth which was now in deep pain.
“Not bad.”
She pretended as if nothing had happened.
Elizabeth lowered her head to look at Linley Bart as she spoke with contempt.
“I’ll let you off this time. Don’t overestimate yourself. If you don’t show your sincerity, this is the result.”
“Ah, you—”
Just as Linley Bart was about to say something, Elizabeth brandished the knife.
“Then Linley Bart, from today onwards, just ignore me. It would be best if you could forget what happened today. Just treat today as a painful memory.”
After saying this, without looking at Linley Bart’s reaction, Elizabeth turned and left in a hurry.
By the time Linley Bart had managed to get to his feet, she had already turned a corner and was out of sight.
“What a devilish woman.”
She dared to do what she had said and didn’t care about Linley Bart at all.
In order to confirm the condition of his face, he touched his face despite the continuous pain from earlier.
Fortunately, it was fine. It was not pierced.
However, it seems that it was bleeding.
This was only natural.
Luckily, it was not that serious. He could feel the pain but there was not much injury seen.
What a terrifying woman. Had she calculated to this extent?
Elizabeth.
His childhood playmate had become so terrifying.
“Ding! Mission: Save Elizabeth!”
“Reward: As long as you do not die, you will be able to recover to your optimal state within 100 seconds.”
The system’s voice sounded.
This was not some kind of magic, but a special ability that could be regarded as a miracle.
He could fully recover within 100 seconds as long as he did not die.
It did not matter what injury he had sustained or what weakness he was suffering from.
In other words, as long as he did not receive fatal damage, he would not need 100 seconds to recover before he could move.
Instead, it was a continuous recovery that lasted 100 seconds.
In other words, if it was just a slight injury, he would basically recover in an instant.
It was a very useful ability.
However, the difficulty of this mission…
Elizabeth was not a girl with a good temper.
He could feel it from when he had come into contact with her.
It might be a dangerous mission.
Should he accept it?
Why not?
It would be good to give it a try. What if he managed to succeed?
It wasn’t Linley Bart’s style to admit defeat before doing anything.
It was time to chase after her.
Linley Bart made his decision in a split second.
Elizabeth must not have gone far.
He decided to continue walking up the stairs to find her.
Elizabeth could easily reach the eighth and ninth levels.
However, she stopped on the ninth floor.
And found Linley Bart.
Although her back was still facing Linley Bart, she turned her head around.
She let out a cold gaze towards him.
“I have never thought that you will still come to find me.”
Elizabeth said.
“No, perhaps you are thinking of taking revenge on me after what I had done to you earlier? Well well, you are the first who dared to do so.”
“The first?”
In other words, she had done similar things to others before.
