Chapter 272

Lucky 272

"Aarrgghhh---!!"

The scream of people dying in flame echoed. The members of the Clan witnessed as Dario's family members slowly charred.

Scarlett cast her spell and annihilated them with the Flame Arrow, the never-ending flame.

She had a cold expression as she looked at her relatives. They were screaming and begging, but their cries gradually weakened and vanished.

Only their ashes are left.

Scarlett did not feel any guilt. Especially when her uncle and cousins were assholes that always bullied her whenever there was a chance.

So, she felt liberated by eliminating these flies who did not acknowledge their position.

Furthermore, killing her relatives showed her motivation. If she could kill her cousins, then she could kill the others.

The Elders that provoked her gulped the cold saliva stuck in their throats. Breathing was hard as the flame absorbed the air.

"Matriarch."

They kneeled again, the Elders who supported her. Scarlett nodded. Acknowledging their work.

"Now, I guess you understand who is the master of this Clan."

"Yes!! Master Scarlett!!"

They roared.

A young woman, Scarlett Robinson, acquired her 3rd Term Attribute. She is the youngest person who reached the status. She was just 21 years old!!

This fact was enough for the Elders to accept her as their leader.

However, the other Elders could not help but feel threatened. They were afraid that Scarlett would kill them next.

This shows that Scarlett's decision was right. She imprinted the image of death in their minds.

The Elders accept her, kneeling, almost grinding their heads to the ground.

The flame danced in their shadow.

"This meeting ends now."

Scarlett walked away. The people created a way for her. No one dared to block her. No dared to look at her.

When Scarlett reached her place, she sat in the chair and closed her eyes.

"I bet the information about me becoming a 3rd Advanced will shock the country... No, it will shock the whole world."

Perhaps people would start asking about her cultivation. She was transcending too fast.

The one thing that she was afraid to happen, was that Calix's life would be compromised. This revelation might endanger him.

... Well, Calix's current situation was being compromised. However, he was now tapping someone's dumpy so it was not that bad. He was probably having a good time too.

Scarlett clenched her fist.

"If not for that bastard..."

Scarlett wanted to remain low-key. Keeping her ability unknown to the public was the best choice.

However, Dario, her uncle, pushed her. Dario wanted to use the First Order to keep her away from the Clan.

Since that bastard did not give her any mercy, Scarlett killed him. It was better than letting the dog litter around.

"My new power... It is amazing."

Scared could use the blood of her opponent to create an explosion.

"Dario is a flame user so he can withstand my power, so the only way is to kill him using his own blood."

It was an OP ability.

[Scarlett Robinson]

[1- FireBall Term Attribute]

[2- Flame Arrows Term Attribute]

[3- Terror Blood Explosion Term Attribute]

Scarlett could detonate her opponent.

'But I need to imprint fear in my enemy's heart to do that. It was quite complicated actually. Still, once my enemy felt fear, his death is imminent.'

It was a sure-kill Term Attribute. Perhaps only insane people who did not have fear could fight her from now on.

'... Sadly, Kimberly and the others are not afraid of me. Damn, why does it have to be like this.'

She shook her head. The idea of killing her rivals was lingering.

She took a look at her phone and decided to contact Calix.

'I think he's with Marianne's right now. Hehe, let's disturb that woman.'

She wanted to congratulate Calix for coming out of the hospital.

-Knock knock.

Before she could dial the number, someone knocked on her door.

Scarlett clicked her tongue and put down her phone.

"Lady Scarlett, it's me, Athena."

"You can come in."

Athena opened the door and greeted her. Since Scarlett was now the Matriarch, Athena kneeled down and showed her respect.

"I remember that you want to talk to me. What is it?"

"Lady..."

Athena bit her lip. She tried to talk to Scarlett these past few days but Scarlett was busy. Furthermore, she did not want to destroy her concentration.

Still, Athena understood that she had to say it. Or else Calix would punish her.

To be honest, a part of her wanted to be punished, her body felt hot whenever she thought of it. But if she failed this time, Calix would be disappointed.

'I don't care, I just want to release these feelings.'

Perhaps her affection towards Calix was not that great compared to her love for Scarlett. Athena would choose her lady over him, that was the truth.

So she has to speak the truth.

"Lady Scarlett... Forgive me, I hurt you."

"..."

Scarlett was confused as she tilted her head.

"Are you talking about Chen Yu? Don't worry, I already forgot about that."

She waved her hand.

"No..."

"Oh, is it about the secret pictures that you keep?"

"Huh? How did you know? N- no, it's not about that too."

Athena was flustered at first. She loves it when Scarlett wears a pink dress.

"So what is it this time?"

Scarlett's eyes glowed.

"I..."

Athena swallowed hard. Her heart was going to jump out of her chest. She might die.

"I... I had sex with Calix. Guh--"

Suddenly, Athena's finger exploded. Scarlett used her fear and erased her pinky finger.

Athena gritted her teeth but she did not make a sound as the blood gushed out. She already expected it.

Her blood tainted the carpet. She was sweating while staring down.

"... Athena, do you understand what you're saying?"

The maid could not look into her eyes. She just bowed her head. However, she could feel Scarlett's relentless gaze.

"Yes..."

Another finger blew apart. Athena closed her eyes and gritted her teeth, enduring the pain.

"You can leave now. Oh, and don't heal your fingers, that's your punishment... It's your choice if you want to stay. Although I prefer if you leave."

"As you wish, Master."

She left the place without looking at her master.

"Hah."

A dry laugh escaped from her mouth. Scarlett looked out the window. It was midnight, and the stars were fading yet shining.

It was a miracle that she did not kill Athena.

However, tears gradually blurred her vision.

Betrayal was so painful that her chest was aching extremely. She wiped her tears and took a deep breath, yet, the pain was still there.

Harmonious Harem? Impossible.

That only works on fantasy. For arrogant and selfish women like them, sharing was the last option, even if they were trusted friends.
