The World Is Mine For The Taking

Please note that this work of fiction is not safe for work (NSFW). It contains words, scenes, and phrases not suitable for audiences below 18. Be aware. Leon was your typical guy, perceived as weak in his school because his skills hadn't awakened, even though they usually did at the coming of age. He attended the prestigious Milham's Magic Knight Academy, where snagging the top spot meant automatic entry into the esteemed position of a Magic Knight in the country. Unfortunately, Leon found himself in the lower caste, labeled the most useless student. To top it off, he was tossed into a class that served as a sanctuary for oddballs and delinquents. Yet, he couldn't care less, as becoming a Magic Knight wasn't his goal. Everything shifted when he crossed paths with Shredica, a woman hell-bent on becoming a Magic Knight at any cost. Observing Leon's lack of ambition and his apparent detachment from the academy's pursuits, Shredica saw an opportunity. She decided to exploit him as a pawn in her ascent through the academy's hierarchy. Yet, unbeknownst to Shredica, Leon was not the complacent, unremarkable figure she presumed him to be.

Chapter 62 - Rage (3)

Leon's POV

Marie claimed the Great Darkness was real, but for all I knew, that could just be another idea Sesillian had planted in Angelica's mind. That's why I couldn't bring myself to trust it completely. My gut told me something was off.

"I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help," Marie said softly. I locked eyes with her. Those eyes—so wide, pure, and innocent, like she had no idea what was really going on. It was natural, I suppose, since she looked like a child right now, though there was something subtly mischievous about her appearance. That grin of hers... It never left her face. It wasn't quite a full grin—more like a delicate, graceful smile—but to me, it looked like mockery, like she was silently laughing at me.

"Alright," I muttered. "You can go."

Without a word, she turned and slipped out of the room where Angelica was confined. I stared at the door as it shut with a quiet click.
