Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

128 Chapter 128- Sorry To Interrupt, Bitches!

Leislet didn't comprehend the words at first since her mind ceased from working for a good 3 seconds. Normally, this should've been something she could expect considering his condition. But, all of that logic and standard process of thinking was thrown out of the window when she heard the cold truth.

"W-What…"

"Help carry that small girl," Scarlett said with the same flat and cold tone.

Then, she picked up Acht and stood up to walk away. Leiselt watched as she moved in the opposite direction without saying a single word or showing any kind of emotion.

So, in the spur of the moment, she ran after her and yanked her shoulder to make the red-haired woman look back.

"Are you not even moved…by…" Leislet was about to shout at her for being this emotionless and flat about the situation.

However, the moment she saw Leislet's eyes, her voice got stuck in her throat. The only description she could come up with to describe her eyes was…dead. Absolutely dead.

They were akin to that of a dead animal, devoid of any kind of emotions whatsoever. Scarlett had reached a level of sadness that made her lose all kinds of emotions permanently or temporarily.

Leislet couldn't even keep her in that position as in the next second, Scarlett turned around again and started walking with Acht in her hands.

The scene of her walking in that destruction with her loved one in her hand was as artistic as it was tragic and heart-wrenching. It could even be made as a portrait and put in the most prestigious of museums.

A sad woman that accepted fate.

**************************

A few days passed quietly, the convention was obviously stopped and people had to leave because of the tragedy that happened. Many contestants died in this accident and some survived albeit with very heavy injuries that they will never recover from.

Of course, the high-status individuals who saw their children die didn't accept it. This meant one thing. A war could potentially be looming on the horizon that could sweep away the whole world.

In the midst of all of this, in a hospital room filled with high-tech medical machines surrounding a white bed, a young man was sleeping soundly with an oxygen mask attached to his mouth to make breathing easy.

During all of that time, he didn't open his eyes once. It was as if he had fallen into an eternal dream that he will never wake up from.

Beside that bed sat one single woman, her fiery red hair was her most glaring feature other than her outstanding beauty.

She had her hand on the bed, caressing the boy's hand. Her eyes stared dazedly at nowhere in particular.

Then, the door opened and another woman entered the room.

"How is he?" She asked as she basically threw herself on the couch opposite to the bed. She seemed to be quite exhausted and also in a very bad mood.

Her question didn't get any answer but it didn't make her feel displeased since that was the case for the last week or so. Scarlett didn't leave Acht's side at all during this time.

Aside from her being clearly in love with him, Leislet had seen another feeling mixed with those strong affectionate emotions. It was regret.

She didn't want to mention this to the woman since it wasn't the time to do so. However, she couldn't hold herself from asking.

"Did you do something wrong for Acht before he went inside the maze? I recall that you stayed in that cafe to talk with him after we left." Leislet said.

Predictably, Scarlett didn't answer but her body made an unconscious reaction that Leislet saw clearly.

"So you did do something wrong," Leislet muttered.

"You know…Before, he entered the maze. He cut off our relationship from one side." Scarlett finally said something.

"It was all under my nose and I let it happen. I made him think that I was a scumbag of a person." Scarlett continued with her voice wavering with Each word.

Then, as Leislet was about to say something, she sensed a weird feeling in the room that appeared out of nowhere. It was not some kind of wind or coldness, but a sense of a very imminent danger lurking around.

However, she couldn't discern where this danger was coming from. Nevertheless, she stood up and walked to the window to look around for any kind of abnormality.

As she walked to the window, she asked Scarlett who seemed to also be alerted at the moment. She even pulled out her sword and stood closer to Acht.

"Be ready. There is something wrong with this place now." Her eyes grew sharper as she took a peak from the window. That's when it happened….

*Swish*

"Ugh!"

It all happened in the split of a second, just barely enough for Leislet to sense anything. Her body moved on instinct as she bent to the side with all of her flexibility. But, even with that inhumanly fast reaction, the attack still hit her arm deeply, creating a big cut.

She ignored the pain and looked back with gritted teeth. There stood a person wearing a black rubber suit that made all of their body look flat. The person also wore a mask that both of the girls knew very well.

It was the mask of Nightingale. This fact alone threw them into a frenzy as they never expected them to attack in broad daylight.

They tried to move in at the same time to attack but stopped when the person looked at both of them and said in a deep voice.

"Sorry to interrupt, bitches!" The sentence was sarcastic as much as it was arrogant. It even showed disdain for two of the strongest women in the world. How arrogant!

Then it added.

"That boy…hand him over. The boss wants him."

They both didn't understand why Nightingale wanted Acht. However, no matter what reason they had. They will never get Acht from their hands.

So, with angry expressions, they held their weapons tight.

"The rough way it is." The person said in the same sarcastic tone.
