CHAPTER 17

　　Vior's Point Of View

　　After Reme treated Reminisce, she regained consciousness so the queen called us. Until now, I still don't really know what really happened, we were really surprised earlier when we saw Venom and Zenith making a fuss right in front of Queen Genesis and then Reminisce was unconscious.

　　When I made sure Reminisce was okay we headed to the 245th floor.

　　"Welcome to all of you, come in and sit down."

　　We were even a little shocked because the dear queen used her power to talk to us even from afar.

　　We followed it so they sat down Reminisce and as men, we just decided to stand up.

　　My eyes immediately searched for Zenith but I couldn't find even her shadow, she wasn't here yet and it looked like she had no intention of appearing.

　　"Aish! That bitch! And it looks like she's not coming here yet ah? It's really the courage of that one, it's her fault," Venom was obviously irritated by the look in her voice.

　　"Palm? Will Ms. Aspen come?" the queen asked.

　　"I'm sorry, Queen. I don't know because even I can't talk to her properly," Ms. Palm replied, it looks like even she doesn't know Zenith's whereabouts.

　　Will I go look for her?

　　"Is that so? I hope that's the case. I don't think she won't really show up to explain himself," she said in a disappointed tone.

　　Reminisce said, "Ah, Queen Genesis? Zenith really didn't do anything to me. She's not to blame for what happened, why I was hurt and lost consciousness." That surprised Venom.

　　"What are you talking about, Rem? You're buried in the wall and depressed after she did nothing?!" it growled at the friend.

　　"Ms. Cassidy? We're here to fix the problem not to get it worse," the queen's calm rebuke stopped her.

　　"I'm sorry, Queen Genesis…" she pointed out.

　　*Tingggg!*

　　We were all stunned to hear the elevator open. In the distance, we see a woman now enveloped in a dark aura that is unexpected. A hatred flowing through her body.

　　Zenith..

　　"Zenith! I thought you weren't coming. Where did you go?" Ms. Palm greeted her.

　　"I just breathe a fresh air somewhere outside…" she said coldly.

　　"Psh! If I know, you're thinking of getting revenge on me," Venom interjected.

　　Zenith turned to her seriously and could see nothing in her eyes but darkness so Venom was stunned.

　　"It's nice to see you here, Ms. Aspen," the queen greeted her but Zenith just stared at her.

　　"Like I said before, Queen Genesis. Zenith is not to blame for what happened, it's all just a misunderstanding," Reminisce insisted that caught the attention of us all.

　　"Hmm. Can you tell us what really happened earlier?" favor of the queen.

　　"The truth is, it's really me… I'm really to blame for why this happened. Earlier I met Zenith, I approached her to apologize for what Venom said to her but I noticed something else in the aura and she reminded me to stay away first so as not to get hurt but I didn't follow her because I was worried when I saw her hurt and then at the same time she shouted, suddenly I just jumped on the wall. I'm sorry if the set up was like this but it was all an accident, "Reminisce explained long but clearly.

　　Venom suddenly stood up. "No! That's not true. I know you're just scaring Reminisce so she's saying that thing!" he stabbed Zenith.

　　"Venom... stop accusing her, she didn't do anything to me, what I said is true and she doesn't scare me," Reminisce corrected.

　　But Venom ignored that.

　　"You! You don't belong here! I know you intend to retaliate for what I told you last night and you just happened to focus on Reminisce. You… you! Daughter of a hell damn, demon!" Venom sighed.

　　"Ms. Cassidy, that's enough. We don't tolerate that kind of behavior and attitude. It's clear that everything is an accident—"

　　"How long are you going to make me look like I don't fit in here?" we were stunned by what Zenith asked.

　　When she let go of it, there was a pain inside him that he didn't want others to know.

　　"What do you mean—"

　　"Can't you just accept that your accusations against me are really wrong? It's hard for you, you're pure accusation, you don't know anything," Zenith said coldly to Venom.

　　"You!"

　　Venom was stunned when Zenith approached her. "What? Assassin? Murderer? I let missed what happened last night, as well as your accusation against me but your sympathy with my parents? I can't forgive you. I'll make sure before the end of this day you don't breathe…"

　　We were all surprised.

　　"Ms. Aspen..."

　　"Zenith."

　　"I'm just telling the truth based on what I know!" scream in fear of Venom.

　　"Really? What do you know? huh? Truth? Your basis is pure false? I know I'm a murderer but since I entered this school yet have you heard of I already killed someone here?"

　　"So, what are you pointing at?!"

　　"That you made a mistake… but you're right about something. I don't really fit in this place."

　　I feel the pain with every word she utters.

　　"Psh! Fine. I'm sorry," Venom said out of her nose.

　　"I'm not apologizing, I don't need to. Seeing that you're no longer in this school makes me happy."

　　We were all surprised again. She wants Venom gone and kicked out of Warrior's Academy?

　　"What?! You gotta be kidding me and why am I leaving here?!" its an artistic question.

　　"First of all, I don't know how to joke afterwards, in your character and behavior there is no place to stay in this school," Zenith replied to her.

　　"You... How dare you?!"

　　Zenith ignored her and turned to Queen Genesis instead. "You… I challenge you into a fight."

　　Another one that surprised us all. I don’t know how I will feel.

　　Is she joking?! She must be...

　　"Psh! You're really proud too, aren't you? Queen Genesis, are you going to challenge her to a fight? Are you crazy?" Venom enter their supposed to be conversation.

　　"You're not involve here anymore so I don't need the opinion of a weak person like you. You're not the one I'm challenging," Zenith told her.

　　"Why are you overdoing it!"

　　"Ms. Cassidy! Calm down. You're not involved here so don't middle into it. Tell me, Ms. Aspen… what did you think to challenge me?" the queen asked her.

　　"I want something from you," she replied honestly.

　　"And what is it that you want?" the queen asked again.

　　"Your life," she answered directly that makes us stunned.

　　What does she mean?

　　Is she planning to kill the queen?!

　　"Hmm, thank you for being honest, Ms. Aspen. About your challenge… ahm, how is that? I still can't accept that until you finish your training. So, finish your training first then let's fight."
