Chapter 88 - Thalia Caught them: Red Handed
Thalia's POV
I never felt him falling in love with that Hedrian girl or anyone else.
Then why me?
I guess, I will eventually find its answer, but at least Alexios is safe.
I separated from Alexios as I first noticed Zeph and Rihane both were missing.
My «intuition» kicked in as I narrowed my eyes, waiting for those two, while folding my hands.
"What happened Sister?"
I heard Alexios's words, looking towards him as a way formed in my mind to get rid of the problem from the root.
"I want a favor, Brother."
"Just tell me, you don't need to ask for some favour "
As always, Alexios was overexcited, but for now, if my intuition is right, then 'that pink-haired bitch is seducing my Zeph!'
"Challenge Rihena's Brother to a match and break his bones."
I can't let Zeph find out about me being involved in any such things, and now that brother is here, I don't need to act stupid every time to repel girls falling for him.
I can just focus on loving my Zeph,' Hehe, guess I have to start cooking to make him a teddy again, hehe'
"B-but, I am not a student here, Sister."
Alexios's words disturbed my plans but why I care, I have more important matters right now,"It's your problem, I want Gliender's with bandages in a week."
"I-i Understand."

Alexios's POV
Thalia separated from me before I noticed her sudden change in expression as she stood looking in a single direction with cold eyes.
"What happened, Sister?"
"I want a favor, Brother."
'What!' A favor? Hell, this is a chance to act like a big brother in front of her.
As a big brother, it is my duty, after all.
I told her not to say it like this and just speak her mind, but 'what's with that face?' It was the first time I saw her frown while gritting her teeth, Maybe I've never been here with her, so she must have changed.
'Whatever, if it's for my sis—.'
"Challenge Rihena's brother to a match and break his bones."
'Huh, what?' Break whose bones? Wait.
It didn't take me much time to understand, 'that bastard is cheating on my sister!'
My anger surged.
'I need to get rid of hi—.'
SWISH n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
'Shit,' I can clearly feel someone's gaze on me.
Is that Him?
I just wanted to meet with my sister though.
I turned my gaze towards the roof of the main building, where a man was looking towards me with those crimson eyes of his, while smoking.
My eyes shifted towards his cigarette that was still half-left and when his eyes met with mine, as if saying — You have just this much time.
'I need to hurry', I looked towards Thalia and told her, "But I am not a student here."
I waited for Thalia to become slightly sad, and then I would come up with a solution, making me look like a guardian figure to her.
"It's your problem."
'Huh.'
What's with her tone? Maybe she trusts me. Yes, it must be. I understand 'maybe she doesn't want to show me her weak side'
Yes, from the moment I met her, she never inquired about where I was or anything; she just waited for that Zeph guy.
Seeing her like that, I decided not to harm that boy until my sister doesn't want to. I guess I will tell her about me after some time eventually.
I saw Zeph and Rihane coming together.
It didn't take a genius to guess what was happening, but this bastard will definitely make an excuse for hiding my identity as a reason to convince that Dariant.
'This fucker,' I saw his face as if looking at me with ridicule. Now, I have to teach him a lesson, but I will not overdo it, as my sister will feel hurt.

"Sorry for the mean, awful, and accurate things I said."
What was that? 'Did my dear sister just take that cheater's side?'
I don't understand why.
I looked at Thalia, she seemed lost in her own world while that fucker kept sniffing her hair like some dog.
Definitely have to teach him a lesson, or he will keep taking advantage of her, 'I will brea—'
Crunch
"Thalia, I am leaving. Have a good night."
Due to my ability, I heard a cigarette crushing sound from the roof, understanding that the time limit has ended.
...
Zeph looked toward Alexios, who seemed to be in a hurry felt satisfied with Thalia's performance,'My lovely Thalia'
"Zeph, then I will take my leave."
Rihane spoke as she wanted to hurry and tell her brother about the news, but suddenly she heard, "Wait, Rihane, I wanted your theory notes."
'I-ieek' Rihane winced as she looked towards Thalia, who seemed to be smiling at her but Due to her ability, she could clearly see that the girl had not good feelings.
In hope of surviving, she turned towards Zeph, who seemed to be looking at her in confusion. 'Is he stupid? Can't he see Thalia is giving me death glares?'
"O-ok."
While turning her gaze downward, she moved towards Thalia, and both left the place.

SWISH
A breeze passed as a lonely boy stood all alone, looking at the disappearing backs of those girls.
'Shit, it feels like I am.....alone'
[ No Master, I am her— ]
'Shut up'
Before a child like voice can made it's way out, it was ruthlessly buried once again, just like it always does.

Rihane's POV
Tap. Tap. Tap.
I moved in the hallway leading to the girl's dormitory with Thalia.
"Umm... Thalia, I needed to meet my brother, so—"
Before I could complete my words, I was interrupted in the middle, "What did he say?"
Thalia turned and looked towards me with a blank face, confusing me before suddenly she moved towards me.
"Did he say, 'How silky your hair was?' " She took my hair strand and slid past her hands before touching my horns "Or Did he say your horns look alluring?"
GULP
At that moment, my mind fell into a void, as if not processing the words thrown towards me.
I blankly kept looking at Thalia, 'don't tell me, is she...'
"Atleast, it can't be those lemons," I noticed Thalia smirking as her gaze was fixed on my chest, making me realise meaning behind her words,'How dare she', I wanted to protest by insulting her's too, but,' Is she drinks milk'.
At that time I realise, I shouldn't have avoided drinking milk when I was young,'My growth seemed to stop, at that place'
"Guess he just wanted to seal your mouth"
'Huh!, what, is she insane?' I felt frustrated dealing with these two bullies.
The first one directly pounced on me, and the second one passed some humiliating comments.
"It's okay. After all, you are a Dariant. Can't compare to me," What the hell, what is she going on about.
"You can go find your brother now, as he can only be healthy for one more week."
'W-what does she mean?' I felt confused and frustrated at the same time but right now I had more important things to do,
I moved from that place and made my way towards my brother's dormitory.
