Chapter 357: Are you angry?
'Thud'
'Thud'
The resounding thuds echoed through the arena, signaling the abrupt collapse of both Lucian Dawn and Carter Theo to the ground.
"W-What?"
Carter Theo was utterly bewildered, grappling with the sudden turn of events. One moment, he had been face-to-face with Asher Eli, and the next, he found himself sprawled on the ground, utterly disoriented. Spotting his son nearby, he rushed to his side, his mind reeling with confusion.
"How?"
Even Lucian found himself at a loss, unable to comprehend how Asher Eli had managed to move with such lightning speed. The shock of Eli's unexpected manoeuvre left him struggling to formulate a coherent response.
Meanwhile, Eli had already vanished from the scene, reappearing on the upper floor of the arena.
"~Chu~"
A soft kiss graced the Vampire Queen's lips, sending shockwaves through the onlookers. Eyes widened in disbelief as they witnessed the intimate gesture between Eli and the formidable Vampire Queen.
Some among the spectators couldn't help but entertain the notion that it was all a dream, a surreal spectacle that would dissipate upon awakening. Yet, the reality of the situation was undeniable.
Anticipating a violent reaction from the Vampire Queen, many braced themselves for the inevitable confrontation. However, to their astonishment, she responded with a gentle touch to Eli's cheek, her ruby eyes betraying a hint of curiosity.
"You seemed angry," she observed, her voice laced with intrigue.
"Do I?" Eli leaned in closer, locking gazes with her.
"... Yeah," she confirmed, her tone softening.
".... Well, I've been separated from my cute little vampire for almost two weeks now, so perhaps that's why I'm feeling a bit on edge," Eli remarked, a playful smirk gracing his lips.
An amused smile flickered across the Vampire Queen's features, her expression betraying a mixture of emotions. Though she had received reports from her loyal maid detailing Eli's dalliances with other women.... witnessing his longing firsthand evoked a complex array of feelings within her. She wanted to Fuck him now!!
Lucian, observing the Head Master's reaction, furrowed his brow in disbelief. He couldn't fathom why the usually composed and second powerful figure was trembling in fear.
"Just move away from my path," Eli demanded, his voice low and menacing as he approached the Head Master, leaning in close to whisper into his long Elf ear. "Act like you don't know anything... Just like before."
The Head Master flinched, unsettled by Eli's sudden hostility and the implications of his words. He couldn't comprehend why Asher Eli had turned against him so abruptly.
Though Eli was inclined to believe that the Head Master wasn't directly involved in Lucian's plans, there was no denying that the Head Master of the Nex Academia must have been aware of the bomb blast that occurred within his territory. Eli wasn't buying into any excuses; he knew the old man was up to something, but that wasn't his immediate concern.
As the Head Master of the Nex Academia, he couldn't allow a conflict to escalate within his jurisdiction. He began to speak, intending to defuse the situation, "I am sorry, Asher Eli, but I can--" Before he could finish his sentence,
"Trrrrrr"
The entire arena trembled suddenly, causing everyone to tense up, and then,
'Thud'
The Head Master collapsed unconscious onto the ground.
The sudden turn of events left everyone in disbelief. One moment, the Head Master stood proudly and energetically, and the next, he lay unconscious on the ground like a broken toy.
Lucian was completely taken aback by what he witnessed. His gaze shifted from the fallen Head Master to Asher Eli, who was flexing his hands in a casual manner.
"W-What did you--" Before Lucian could finish his question, Eli provided a simple answer.
"Oh, I put him to sleep," Eli replied nonchalantly as if it were the most ordinary thing in the world. He shrugged indifferently and continued, "Elves have sensitive ears, you see... So, I tinkered with high-frequency sound waves that almost caused his brain to shut down.
Of course, it was only possible because he let his guard down." Inwardly, Eli pondered, 'And that proves he trusts me enough to let his guard down... or perhaps he might be acting. Who knows?'
"Now that the interference is out of the way, why don't we finish what you've always wanted?" Eli suggested casually as he moved the unconscious Head Master to the side.
"FUCK YOU BASTARD!!" Lucian's scream echoed through the arena.
"Tsk, Tsk, Tsk... No need for such language, Lucian. You should maintain your composure, otherwise, what will these people think of their esteemed saviour?" Eli retorted with a haughty smile, a demeanour befitting a villain and added,
"Well, You are really fucked up now!!"
