〈 “If you were going to run away from me, it’s now too late, Adelia.” 〉
“EEEUUUUAAAAA…!”
“Young Lady!”
Lily, who saw me screaming and jumping out of the bed, ran towards me in a hurry. Surprised, she stared at me with her eyes wide open. I opened my mouth with a heavy breath.
“Lil, Lily, I need some water.”
“Are you all right?”
I shook my head at Lily, who quickly handed me the cold water, and gulped down the water. As my burning thirst disappeared, I recalled the dream I had a moment ago.
Oh, I truly screwed it up!
Thinking about it, I kicked the duvet and laid back on the bed. Why did I accept it without hesitation?
…No—Anyway, why did he do that…!
“…Why? I must’ve done it because I was bewitched by that face!”
I buried my face in the pillow and struggled with the reality I didn’t even want to believe I had done while a strange sound came out of my mouth. After sobbing and weeping for a while, I realized that the surroundings were too quiet.
I was sure Lily’s voice should be making a fuss around this time…?
When I slowly lifted my head and glanced around, Lily was already looking at me with an icy look on her face.
“…Lily?”
“Don’t worry, Young Lady.”
“Huh?”
“Because I’m going to kill Eli, that son of a b*tch, today.”
“What?”
Without a moment of embarrassment at the sudden remark, Lily turned her body without any regrets. Then, I hurriedly grabbed her by the waist when I saw that it really looked like she was going to kill Eli at any moment.
“Ho-hold on, Lily!”
“Let me go, Young Lady! I knew that freak would one day make a mistake like this!”
Lily shouted as she rolled up her arms vigorously as if her anger did not dissipate despite my persuasion.
“He’s been like this since I was a kid! He didn’t think it would be helpful to the family economy by making something useful and went to the academy in the middle of nowhere! What, a drug that turns someone into a shapeshifter…? Just amazing!”
