No More Pain For This Villain.

[Synopsis] In a dark, underground basement, a spooky old man's voice sent shivers down my spine. "You're gonna meet your end, hahaha," he taunted, before lunging at me with a sword, slashing the air, and spattering my throat with red drops. "We'll see," I defiantly whispered, my last words fading as I drifted into darkness. Suddenly, I woke up in a bustling tavern filled with laughter and clinking glasses. A captivating lady stood before me, her beauty clashing with her angry expression, ready to disrupt the cheerful mood. "Don't stalk me," she snapped, giving me a harsh look before storming out of the tavern. Am I stuck in some kind of game? My common sense shattered, leaving me questioning my reality. ------------------------------------------- [A/N: Give it a read, buddy; you won't regret it.] [Discord Server Link: https://discord.com/invite/4gVfcaePJS]

Mary's Thoughts

[Mary's POV]

You see? You saw it, right?

I asked him—my eyes wandered towards him as he stared at me, serene.

I wanted to show him that I am great; I can defeat anyone and anything—this is what I learned in this academy.

I always said that I wanted to grow, and see, I have grown as a warrior and a swordsman too.

You saw it? Right, Ruu?

His eyes didn't linger on me for long before he turned them towards the girl fallen behind me, on her knees. Why wouldn't he keep his focus on me and me only?

"Hey! What was that!?" I was shaken out of my thoughts as someone grabbed my shoulder.

I looked at Adam, who shook me. I unconsciously stepped back. Ruu didn't see me like this, right?

"Why did you do that? What's going on with you, Mary? First Raven, now Cecelia—are you alright?" He drew closer.

"Y-yeah," I nodded, creating some distance. Right now, I just didn't want his touch—especially not in front of Ruu.
