Lazy and Emotionless NEET In An Otome Game As A Villainess!

Chapter 5

"Humans are greedy, yes they are, those who are not greedy, I call you abnormal. Abnormality. I question one's meaning of abnormal, does it mean unique? Then does 'Abnormality' signs for something good?" She mumbled and recited the whole paragraph, the exact words are written on the book.

"You may choose whichever book, page and paragraph, You can even ask for a single word," Aster said, as if boasting.

"Respare's Land Book XI, Page 1032, Paragraph 7, word 658," He challenged, not sparing the girl at all.

"Decomposers," She sleep talked as she answered.

He kept asking, she kept sleep talking. Till 30 minutes passed, the old man decided to give her an impossible one for her to answer.

"Recite Taline's Treasure," It wasn't long,but the whole thing was in ancient language, which even him only understood half, after YEARS of research and matching words.

"Arina." She corrected

"Huh?" He asked in confusion.

She started reciting in Japanese, he didn't understand much. He can only fit in the gibberish she was spouting with the book.

She then recited it again, but in
English.

The man was shocked that the girl managed to translate and understand the story fully. Does that mean she understand the ancient language? She just spoke it, and seemed very fluent in it.

Though there is no way to determine the truth, this senior can't afford to let go such a rare prodigy!

"Arina..." She spoke in her sleep as she suddenly lets out a silent sob. "Arina..." She repeated as she clutched to Aster's clothes.

"Rin-rin.." She whimpered as more tears fell out.

She awoke as she traced her hand to her puffy eyes, she must have burdened her father again.. she frowned ever so slightly.

She remininced her dream, it was so light and wonderful, yet so sorrowful and painful.

It was her- the her smiling so happily, so carelessly and ignorant. She was talking to her friend, her author friend who managed to publicize her own book and got famous in a young age of 16.

She was congratulating Arina, she was making jokes and having a nice and bubbly conversation.

It was a happy moment with her. It was also the last one- before a car "accidently" crashed to her.

It was only one loved one's death out of a chain of painful deaths of her friends afterwards. All the deaths of her friend.. all of them.

Was all because of him. Because of the insane deity called "Ren", at least he himself introduced his name as that.

She smiled bitterly at the memories. Her eyes was full of loneliness and pain.

"Rin-rin, Celest, Cin, Tim, Hugo, Tys, how are all of you? I am so sorry, he killed you because of me- It was all my fault." She cried silently as she looked to the starty night.

"Isn't the stars so beautiful!" As she saw the figure of her friend, Hugo said as he smiled so cheerfully and looked to the view.

At least that was what he would do if he was still alive and with her.

Rin-rin would just write about it, Celest would start writing about designs related to stars. Tim would start drawing in silence. Tys would take pictures of it for reference.

It was a comfortable silence, as everyone was doing their own thing. She was cherishing the memory as she sobbed silently and watched the night sky pass by without a single word.

The morning sun rise as the beautiful sun rise comes to her view. She didn't sleep a moment. She was thinking of her deceased friends all the night.

She decided to powder her face and hid her puffy eyes and dark circles. She moved her face muscles to make her usual listless face.

It's time to go through her life, she reminded herself of the rules:
1. Don't talk to people out of family.
2. Don't smile to them either.

She reminded her of the consequences. If she broke the rule, someone close to her will die. Died in his hands.

It would be easy, she had went through years with this rules, no one close had died. It should be easy to continue living the rule.

It should be that way, but when she went out, there was already danger!

There was a person out of family- a boy, and he is the crown prince.
