Chapter 215 - Sending Edward Jener Off

"*Sigh. At least we have matching tastes."

Someone in "Elena"s" head spoke up. She couldn"t help chuckle after she heard the voice in her head.

Elena and the voice in her head decided to proceed as planned. The plan was to make it appear that Edward suddenly won his gambling hands when he was Elena by bribing the den house in advance. Then use that as a base to establish a superficial relations.h.i.+p between him and Elena.

Edward bought the most expensive suite to spend the night with Elena and led her inside it before closing the door for the night.

Edward had lost his game wooing normal women that weren"t hookers. So he was trying to figure some stuff out in his head when he heard Elena"s voice:

"Edward, are you sure we are alone?"

Edward was confused by his companion"s question. Then he thought she was worried about her security and anonymity so he a.s.sured her with his words:

"Of course, Edward. Then why would I pay for the most expensive place and the most expensive suite in it? Hehe! Are you trying to go behind someone"s back? Are you cheating on someone with me?

I"ll be honest. I am flattered and still open to moving forward with what we have right now. Haha!"

Edward conveyed his feelings and eagerness to get on with the program even when he thought of the possibility of Elena having an extra-something with him as her target.

"No, Eddy! I asked you because I want to eat you without leaving your bones behind. I"m hungry, you see."

With her right hand, Elena caressed Edward"s cheeks and said that in a soothing voice.

"Eat me up, you say. Kinky! I like that. Hehe!"

Edward took Elena"s body language as a cue to take his liberties with her. He tried to plant his hands gently on Elena"s slim yet curvy waist when his vision suddenly changed.

Elena had grabbed Edward"s right hand just a few centimetres before it touched Elena"s waist. Then she twisted his arm in such a way that it was dislocated from his shoulder and almost broke off from the joint. The twist had made him turn, making Elena see his back.

"Aaaaaaaaaargh!"

Edward"s ear-splitting cry rang in the Grand Hiyat"s most luxurious room. However, it didn"t make it past the room. That"s because Elena had used her C-Rank mana sense to isolate the room from the outside world.

"Aaaaaaaaah!

You fuc*king b.i.t.c.h what are you doing? And you are not an F-Ranker, are you? What do you want from me?"

Elena didn"t respond. Suddenly, she broke all of Edward"s limbs one by one, as if they were a dead tree"s dry twigs.

Edward couldn"t express his agony with words. He was going to have a good time with a young and beautiful woman that wasn"t a hooker. He wanted to please his fifth limb. But he would have never thought that all his other limbs would suffer the consequences of his carnal wishes.

Edward was wiggling like a worm on the ground because the pain had been too unbearable for him. But the one who had caused the guy"s worm-like condition didn"t pay him much attention and started walking in the direction of the suite"s entrance.

Ron Damien entered through the door after Selena opened it. Elena closed the door behind him gently and led the guy in where Edward was.

Ron Damien ignored Edward"s cries and his weird moves on the ground because of the broken limbs and asked Elena:

"Hmm. Same suite I had stayed in when I was with Julie. A predictable coincidence.

Anyway. Reen, why did you have to break the guy"s limbs?"

Elena voiced a hmph before replying

"The creep was trying to touch me."

Edward shouted laced with anger before Ron Damien could comment:

"She fu*cking touched me first, d.a.m.n it."

Ron looked at Elena questioningly. The latter just shrugged her shoulders before making her opinion known:

"It"s alright if you touch your food. It is weird when it touches you back."

"You, random guy, what the actual fu*ck is she on about?"

Edward asked Ron without knowing about his real ident.i.ty. As a response, the latter turned back into his original appearance and sized Edward up with his gaze.

Edward"s pain was still there. But he still found it in him to process the emotion of surprise when he saw Ron shapes.h.i.+fting into someone he had a vague memory of seeing at the LA grounds.

"Are… are you one of the LA students? What the fu*ck is happening over here? Are you behind all this?"

Eren shrugged his shoulders before replying

"That"s not relevant right now, Mr lab-in-charge. What I want to know is what did you tell to any of your LA colleagues before leaving the academy grounds for a weekend?

Hmm. Never mind. I"ll just ask Reen to extract your memories after I kill you. Reen, do the honours."

Eren didn"t want to waste time interrogating someone who he had decided to kill from the beginning. His about-to-be-victim feared for his life for the first time since he had gotten into the situation after hearing Eren"s remark. He couldn"t help try to reason with his potential killer:

"Wait! Please tell me, who are you? Do I know you?

Whatever you think I did, I didn"t do it. I"m innocent.

And I can compensate you for whatever might have offended you in some way.

Let"s talk at least. Before we regret something."

Eren listened to Edward"s negotiation-101 talk and answered without any expression.

"Innocent people get framed and killed all the time. You had played your part in framing me. Why should I not return the favour?"

E-Rank Edward would have tried to use spells to help get out of the situation. But Elena AKA Reen"s had already damaged his mana core after breaking his limbs. So he was helpless despite being a senior ranker than Eren.

Nothing worsened Edward"s irritation more than hearing Eren mention playing a part in framing him. He had looked through his memories and had concluded that Eren was speaking nonsense.

"Look here, young man. Bullying others with a girlfriend that has a higher ranking status than you will not help you. And I think there"s been a misunderstanding.

I barely recognize you as a LA student. How could I cause harm to you if I don"t even know who you are?

And what would you get by killing me? If anything, it is going to be a nightmare for you to deal with the consequences of killing a LA lab-in-charge."

Eren flashed an evil smile before replying:

"Oh don"t worry. Soon, LA staff and all the students would abhor you and your name after I"m done with a few things. No point dragging this any further. Reen, bon appet.i.t!"

This was the last line Edward heard before his agonized soul was sent to the netherworld.
