CHAPTER 26

"Looking for this?"

While his one hand is grabbing mine, his other hand lifts up the copper key with 232 number on it and wave it infront of my face.

Why does he have it? Did he got it from me when I fainted earlier?!

"...Thank you so much-"

I tried to grab the key from his hand immediately but he managed to avoid my hand.

"Did I say I'm going to give it to you?"

He smiled at me, even his eyes are smiling at me while he retreats from me and remove his hand from mine.

"Haha...I really need it"

I reached my hand again but he avoided once again.

Now, I'm annoyed. I don't care if you are the male lead! Gimme back my key!

"Whoa! Slow down!"

He chuckled after I tried to take the key from him many times. I look like a kid taking something from an adult, he is really tall for his age too.

"Give it ba-"

When I thought that I finally caught the key from his hand, he suddenly took me in a tight embrace resulting in a back hug.

His right arm is infront of my face while his left arm is wrapped on my waist.

"Looks like I'm the one who caught you~!"

He whispered to my ear.

His voice sent chills to my spine.

....WTF?!

GAAHHHHH!!!

Without thinking, I bite the arm of the male lead that is right infront of my face.

"Ouch-!"

He removed his arms from mine so I quickly snatched the key from his hand and run away like I'm in a marathon.

Gahahaha! You thought I'm going to beg?!

Think again, male lead!

"Finall-"

As I was running like a wind, I bumped my face into someone's chest.

I almost fall from the impact of the steel-like chest in my face.

Who's chest is this?!

My eyes are still closed and I can still feel the slight pain from my nose that I'm holding right now.

"I'm sorry, I didn't see-"

I slowly opened my eyes and saw the person I don't want to see right now.

Black messy hair and sea-blue eyes...

Him again?!

I can still remember how my friend's novel described his left-side long fringe. He is staring at me intensely like he wants to eat me alive.

"The villain!"

I shouted but immediately closed my mouth.

He looks confused again.

"...You called me a villain again..."

He told me, he stepped forward and slowly reach his hand towards me but I quickly pass-through him so our backs our now facing each other.

"I'm so sorry!!!"

I apologized to him.

I know I look stupid since I'm apologizing on his back but I'm to scared to look at him.

I remembered what happened before when I saw the young him back when I was only ten years old. The vision of him injuring some kids that was bullying him was supposed to happen but me and Kayle interrupted him that time.

He can hurt me easily with a blink of an eye.

"You know you can just apologize to me infront of my face, it's rude to apologize to someone without looking at them..."

I heard him sigh from behind.

"I..."

I tried to say something but my voice won't come out properly. I can feel my legs midly shaking, it's because I saw Delie's death right infront of my eyes even though I didn't see how she died but I know it is because of the villain.

The villain...Cain El Blanc!

"Listen, I know you heard things about me but I won't hurt someone by just that...all of you people are the same"

He sounds annoyed.

Huh? The same?

"Call me villain or anything you want, next time when you do apologize to someone...make sure to look at them sincerely"

I look behind me and I saw him walking away from me.

I...

Did I do something wrong?

Wait...

I get it now!

He was mad at me since I immediately thought that he'll kill me for bumping into him.

He didn't do anything to me yet I'm scared of him.

All those people who feared him without a reason...is that the people he was referring to?

Then he was right...

I am no different from them. I'm scared of him without knowing his true self first, I judged him because he is the villain.

I forgot that villains have feelings too.

He was probably hurt by what I did.

Should I apologize to him?

But...I can't still help it when my body suddenly reacts in his presence. He might not be villain now but he is the main reason why my character is killed, why a lot of students were killed.

I don't know what to do anymore.

Anyway, I need to go back to my dorm room now. I'll just think about what to do next after that.

I headed to my dorm room number. It is almost dinner time, my roommate must be here!

I put my hand on the door knob before I heard a lot of girls laughing inside.

Huh? What's happening inside?

"Come in!"

The people inside must have realized that I'm outside the room so I opened the door quietly.

"I apologize for being late, you don't mind my friends here right? They'll leave soon before dinner"

My roommate waved at me. Her legs are crossed on her large bed, the room is so big that you can even throw a party inside.

"Uhmmm..."

I look at my roommate with several girls beside her. I looked at her from her shoes that even has red jewel in the middle up to her laced stockings, her uniform's skirt is a bit shorter than normal.

Her chest is also bigger than the other girls our age, she has a good curvaceous figure.

"I know I'm gorgeous but I'm not into girls"

She swift her long violet hair into the air using her gloved black-laced hand with her fierce red eyes staring at me confidently.

She's really pretty, she's like those beautiful villainesses in the stories hahaha...

Haha...

Urk!

Sharp red eyes that are like rubies, long violet hair...

My jaw drops.

"Hey! It's quite rude to look at the lady like that!"

One of her friends scolded me for staring at my roommate with open mouth.

She's!!!

...

~3rd Person POV~

"Your Highness, I've confirmed the origins of the young lady you are talking about"

One of the prince's personal attendants knocked on his door's private room.

"Your Highness?"

The attendant knocked again since the prince didn't respond.

"Hmmm?"

When the attendant took the door knob, it was surprisingly open so he decided to go inside.

"I'm coming inside, Your Highne--!"

A fast dart pin almost hit his left eye as soon as he opens the door.

"Can you be more quiet, Derrick?"

The dart pin is now attached to the wall behind the attendant named Derrick. It even left a large crack on the wall.

"I apologize, Your Highness"

Derrick sighed after taking the dart that is stuck in the wall. The prince is actually playing a dartboard game and the board is in the door itself.

"Didn't I told you to not say it so loudly?"

The prince gave him a gentle but intimidating smile.

"I...I apologize again..."

Derrick bows down his head to the prince.

Derrick is viscount Taylor Uy Apollo's nephew and was introduced by him three years ago. He considers the prince his savior after the emperor rejected him for a scholarship but was given a chance after the prince told him to be his personal attendant. They were going to diguise as cousins in the academy.

In short, Derrick feels indebted to the prince and will do anything he asked for.

"Did anyone knew about this?"

The prince took the folder from Derrick's hand and look at it.

"None, not even His Majesty"

He gave the prince a serious look.

The prince chuckled and nod. He knows that Derrick is loyal, he even promised him that he will give him a noble title after he becomes the emperor.

"So...I see! Now I understand why that girl has that kind of power"

The prince's face brightens up while he is reading the files. It took almost about five years to search for this kind of infromation.

"I thought that it was the La Eclaus family...it seems that it was from the lady's maternal family, that man's descendant "

He muttered to himself.

"Your Highness, may I ask you something?"

Derrick interrupted.

"Yes?"

"Can I ask why are you researching this?"

"Good question but I can't answer the main reason, it's just that...I want to acquire the secrets of this world before my old man does..."

Derrick can't understand what the prince meant but he doesn't care as long as he did everything that the prince needs. He promised that he will devote his life to him.

The prince has been researching everything he needs to know. Why the three academies were established, who REALLY are the three founders again, what really happened to the dragons and that La Eclaus girl's real connection to the saintess and her lover.

The prince knows that his father is just using him for his own benefits. Even his daughters were actually forced to marry the crown princes' of the two other empires.

He wants to acquire the secrets as much as possible and by doing that, he needs to get close to those peope related to them.

"I need to acquire those power before the emperor"

The prince told himself looking outside.

That was before he entered the academy. He really wants to know the La Eclaus young lady and maybe he can acquire some information from her.

...

Now, back to the present time. The prince didn't expect her to bite him, she surely is unpredictable according to him.

After attempting to get close to the lady La Eclaus, the prince failed to do so.

"Ha...this is going to be harder than I thought"

Eros sighed after the lady runs away from him. He even put his palm in his eyes.

"Seducing her will take a lot of time"

He scratched his head.

Many girls are easily swayed by his flirting strategies except that girl though. This will be a big challenge for him.

"I need to go to Cain too..."

The prince remembers his cousin who always hate to see him.

"If I need to acquire the power of the dragon too, Cain's hear- Oh! Speak of the devil..."

The prince muttered to himself, he was actually thinking of a plan but he smiled after he saw his cousin walking towards his direction.

"If it isn't my cute cousin~!"

Eros was about to hug Cain but he just ignored him going as far to not even glance at him.

"Ummm...Cain!"

He followed him but he continues to ignore him.

"Cain! Cain! Cain!"

He even claps beside Cain's face trying to get his attention.

"Cain~!"

"What?!"

Cain glared at him finally exploding.

"Hi!"

Eros smiled.

Cain just stared at him for one second before walking away again.

"Are you still mad at me because of what I did before?"

Eros' tone of voice became different. Its like he is challenging him for a fight.

"Say another word-"

"What? You'll kill me?"

Eros smirked at him trying to hold his laughter.

"You! Ah, talking to someone like you is just a waste of time"

Cain gritted his teeth and mildly stomps his feet.

"Look, I finally disguised myself as another person...I don't look like my aunt now, am I? So why are you still avoiding me?"

"Just hearing your voice makes me puke, I know you are planning something again...stop acting like you treat me as a cousin! I still remember what you did to me back then!"

Cain's voice becomes louder. His eyes are full of rage.

"Cain...we are just children back then, I know I made a mistake"

"Enough...don't expect me to be good to you"

"Alright, if you still don't forgive me then I can't force you"

"What you did is unforgivable..."

Cain told him like he was threathening him.

"Fine, fine~! By the way, have you seen a girl with light brown hair and light brown eyes?"

Cain stops walking for a moment and remembered the girl earlier who looks frightened as soon as she saw him.

"No"

"I see, if you ever saw her please tell me"

"Why? You're going to seduce her?"

"Hmmm...? Maybe I will, maybe I will not...anyway, enjoy your life here dear cousin"

"As long as I don't see your face, I might enjoy being here"

Cain told his cousin with a dark aura surrounding him while Eros just gave him a confident smile with light aura surrounding him.

From the look of these two, it feels like there is a electric spark between them with a heavy tension as the two of them walk away from each other.
