Chapter Index

    What kind of harmony is this? Veronica Trivia was in a mixed mood today.

    Was it because I had a meeting with a rude new student at dinner? That may be so. That freshman was truly a student with terrible manners.

    Anyway, Veronica can’t go to sleep easily. She reluctantly got off the bed. The lightly worn negligee felt uncomfortable today.

    Gulp, gulp-.

    I poured myself a glass of cool water and drank it. Still, the stiff spine did not subside easily.

    Maybe it’s because I’m in a bad mood. As I thought about how Charlotte, my unforgettable enemy, would be happy, I kept feeling happy.

    “Ha… .”

    Two years ago.

    Charlotte and Veronica were close friends.

    Veronica may be a higher noble than Charloce, but does that really matter to a teenage student? They stayed together without hesitation.

    The two did not get along well. There were times when we argued, and there were times when we argued and didn’t talk for days.

    However, the ground hardens after rain. Charlotte and Veronica were people for whom that phrase fit perfectly. The two stayed together throughout their time at the academy and took classes together.

    There was a time when something cracked between the two and broke apart… .

    One day, Veronica and Charlotte, who had not been fighting for a while, argued for the first time in a long time. This is due to conflicting religious views.

    Veronica was a devout member of the Church of Olympus. On the other hand, Charlotte was a faithful child of the Holy Order.

    There are many very sensitive topics in the world. These are political ideas, likes and dislikes for minor foods such as mint and chocolate combined, and conflicting religious views.

    Avoiding conflict on such topics requires a finite attitude. ‘This is what I think, but this is what you think. I’ll respect you.’ same.

    But the two young girls couldn’t do that.

    match! It was as fast as a beam of light. When a moment as long as a sparrow chirped passed, Charlotte’s palm hit Veronica’s cheek. Veronica’s head jerked away.

    The glass Veronica was holding shook. The hot contents inside shot up into the sky. It would have been nice if it had just passed through the sky and reached the ground.

    Chi-ik-!

    ‘Aaaah!’

    A tearing scream rang out. A throbbing scar on the face. Veronica covered the side of her face hidden by the mask with her hand.

    For a noble lady, the face is life. On that day, Veronica lost her life as a daughter.

    The only things that divine power or modern medicine can treat are wounds that have not yet healed. Veronica, who missed the time for treatment, was left with an indelible wound for the rest of her life.

    It was a terrible scar. Veronica blamed God.

    Why did you subject yourself to this ordeal? Why me, why me! What did I do so wrong!

    Naturally, no matter how much humans pray, God does not answer. Humans must find the answer within their own hearts.

    At first glance, the answer Veronica found was in a positive direction.

    ‘God gave me a trial. It’s an ordeal given to me to look at my inner self and not be deceived by appearances.’

    In fact, after what happened, Veronica, who had finished her agony, began training more passionately than before. My skills also improved dramatically.

    As the advantage of appearance disappeared, it was to demonstrate exceptional talent that no one could replace.

    However, where there is light, there is also darkness.

    ‘Evil demon, unholy devil. ‘I can’t believe I was friendly with something like that.’

    A deep hatred dwelled in my heart. The venomous Veronica hated the girl she had once known as a friend.

    Veronica happened to have the strength to not have to endure hatred. She radiated her power without hesitation.

    Bullied, bullied, and bullied again. school violence. It was held secretly, away from the eyes of the teachers, and Charlotte, perhaps harboring a sense of guilt, did not offer any resistance.

    That didn’t relieve Veronica’s anger.

    “Ha… ”

    It is a painful and bitter memory. Veronica quickly locked the door on her memories. In addition, I closed and locked any open windows.

    I had a lot of useless thoughts. Veronica lay down on the bed again.

    The surroundings are dark and the room is cozy. Suddenly, Veronica wondered if this was right.

    Charlotte gave her an indelible scar, but Veronica’s wounds were no less significant. With a sad heart, I ponder deeply whether it is right to dwell on something that has already happened two years ago.

    Veronica fell asleep -.

    .

    .

    .

    How much time has passed?

    Veronica turned over due to the sudden cold feeling.

    It was truly an unlucky night to fall asleep and wake up again.

    By the way, I obviously locked the door before going to sleep, so where on earth did the chill come in?

    It was when Veronica gently opened her eyes and raised her head.

    Clap-.

    ‘uh.’

    Push-soo-.

    ‘… !’

    Push-soo-. Push-soo-.

    ‘what… hey… .’

    Neck, chest, stomach.

    The three areas that had been quiet until a moment ago felt like they were on fire.

    Veronica felt pain worse than when she was burned. However, the time of pain was shorter than before.

    *****

    “You should have taken good care of your snout. People can get halfway just by taking care of their mouth, hands, and feet.”

    There is a cold corpse beyond the window. The red blood flowing out soaks the underside of the bed.

    “Ha, it still feels good. Since coming here, I haven’t seen any blood.”

    Death is cold and static. That’s why I don’t like death.

    It’s good to be alive. The pleasure of watching something alive and fluttering is truly exhilarating. It gets hot too.

    But in this case… I had to kill him. Factors that could hinder Maria and my life at the academy. You can’t get over it without killing it.

    I absolutely did not kill because I wanted to kill.

    Huh… .

    Anyway, it’s been a while since I committed a murder. It’s a bit unfortunate that it ends like this.

    I lifted the body using telekinesis.

    By controlling even the hem of her clothes minutely, Veronica’s body was taken out of the window. Red blood is dripping.

    It’s a shame. If I could use divine power like the saint, I would have been able to heal Veronica’s wounds.

    Unfortunately, I used the negligee Veronica was wearing to cover her affected area. If you leave it like this for a while, the blood will coagulate.

    Maybe it’s because it’s a negligee, but too much bare skin is exposed. It’s a place where there are still young students.

    Showing sexually suggestive scenes to students is a bit much, no matter how much I do it. I used my telekinesis to take out more clothes from Veronica’s room and put them on Veronica, who was still warm.

    Well, I’m finally satisfied now. The purple magic blooming from the fingertips carries Veronica. I took her with me and flew through the air.

    In the middle of Eden Academy, there is a clock hanging on the exterior wall of the main building.

    Veronica’s body was hung there. Although it is hung quite high, the clock is a place where students often look. You’ll probably get caught soon, right?

    I’m already looking forward to it. What expressions would the innocent students make when they discovered the corpse? I shook off the bloody smell from my body with a satisfied smile.

    Because he was killed with an air gun and moved using telekinesis, the blood did not get on his clothes. This was something I expected.

    “Hehe.”

    I happily returned to the window of the main building. The air inside was cozy. I took a deep breath, took a deep breath, and entered the library.

    Sigh-.

    Perhaps because he committed murder, the door opened with an ominous sound today. Inside, a woman with white hair was sitting quietly reading a book.

    “You came.”

    “Yes, I feel refreshed.”

    “Haha… I’m glad that Joker is happy… Please sit here.”

    Maria said, tapping the seat next to her. I quickly walked over and sat down.

    A soft female body touches one side of the body. Oh, okay. I rubbed myself like a puppy.

    The genre of the book Maria was reading was criminal psychology. I couldn’t even see the letters because I was looking at Maria.

    It was when I had only eyes on Maria.

    “Joker.”

    “Huh?”

    “I don’t like it when Joker goes astray. However, there is something I hate more than that.”

    “What is that?”

    “That’s right, you’re hiding your mistake. It’s as if I’m more worried about a child who hides his mistakes than a child who reveals them.”

    “… What do you want to say?”

    “Before I tell you, I hope Joker will tell you the truth first.”

    Maria mutters the words one by one.

    The profound gaze that penetrated my inner self touched my heart.

    I said with a hearty laugh.

    “Ahaha, I can’t fool you. How did you know? I came here after murder?”

    “I can feel the fate of someone who kills someone. And just now, Joker’s life has become even thicker.”

    “Are you going to live? You see something like that? Why can’t I see?”

    “Because it’s intuition. But… .”

    Maria asked very cautiously.

    “Why did you commit such a serious crime as murder? Was there a reason why you had to kill him?”

    I answered while scratching the back of my neck.

    “Because there was no reason not to kill him?”
