Chapter 187 Chapter 42.2 - Trip
'So, this was what it was about.'
I thought as I listened to what Maya was saying. If a trip was about to happen, then it made sense that she wanted to inform us face-to-face to see our reaction as well.
If she had sent a message only, most students would probably not accept her opinion in any case.
'Well, I don't think it is bad personally.'
This was an event that wouldn't happen in the game since traveling was something that wasn't much related to this club. Even if the player joined it, most of the events were all in the academy.
But I was already expecting changes to happen, and this one didn't seem that bad either. If we could get a change of environment while observing a historical site, it would be fine by me. Especially since I could see what this world was about in more detail.
I knew this world was the same world as it was in the game, but even then, it didn't mean I knew everything. Thus, learning and observing more would be optimal.
That was why I thought, but hearing the next words of this guy made my decision firmer.
"I think it is good. I always wondered how it would feel to see a real historical site."
Since Mason was a demon contractor, I knew from the moment he approved this that he was already seeing the trip as an opportunity.
'That makes sense.'
Being outside of the academy while also being in the same space as Sylvie....There was no better option than this for him to act. Now that the academy and the government were also alert thanks to recent incidents, he probably saw this in a new light.
"Then, it is settled. See you Saturday." After Senior Maya finished the discussion, the students also turned their attention to their friends.
And, just like before, Mason approached Sylvie with a friendly smile, his eyes gleaming.
"Sylvie, are you free? How about we grab a drink? Others are coming as well."
FLINCH!
From my senses warning me, I was already aware that he was using his demonic skill. This was the way demonic humans worked, as they had countless different spells that affected the minds of their targets.
However, Sylvie's response was different this time. She looked at him, her expression neutral, and replied curtly, "Not interested."
'Hmm?'
Her expression and everything were a lot different than in previous ones. Previously, she would always join other students with a smile, but now she was looking at Mason with an uncomfortable gaze.
Mason's smile faltered for a moment, caught off guard by the unexpected response. He tried to recover, "Come on, it'll be fun. We can all relax and enjoy ourselves."
THUMP!
He was also using more demonic energy this time, possibly trying to shake off Sylvie's defenses.
However, Sylvie stood her ground, her neutral expression turning into a fierce and angry one. "I said I'm not interested. Leave me alone," Sylvie retorted, her voice carrying an edge of frustration. The intensity of her gaze bore into Mason, making it clear that she wasn't going to be swayed by any persuasive tactics.
'She really is different.'
I don't know what caused a change in her heart clearly, but it wasn't that hard to guess.
'She must be able to see that Mason has a demonic energy in his body.'
With her recent awakening, it seems Mason was no longer able to deceive her powers. Only this could explain why she was behaving like this. nOVelb1n
"Come on, if she doesn't want to come, let her be." At that moment, the girl who was always with Mason pulled his shirt, glaring at Sylvie.
'She likes him, huh?'
One of them was glaring at me clearly with an annoyed expression, but I didn't sense any intent behind her gaze.
I watched her for a moment and then turned back.
'Now, let's start preparing.'
Since this trip wasn't an opportunity only for demon contractors.
'You are not the only one who is holding back because of the academy.'
After all, the moment we get out of the academy will be the moment where I can use my powers without hiding from those belonging to that safe ground.
'I can finally get rid of these dogs.'
*******
"What an opportunity."
That was what Mason thought the moment he heard that the club would be going on a trip. After all, he had been looking for an opportunity all this time. His superiors were getting restless as well.
"Who does she think she is anyway?"
He could see the girl he had charmed fuming already.
"Even though we are calling her to come with us, how dare she refuse you rudely like that?"
He had already wrapped her around his fingers, and this wasn't the first time. He had done this countless times, and she was just another one of his tools. Normally, he would just brush these complaints off.
"Calm down, Taylor."
However, now that he wasn't in a good mood, he couldn't bear it. After all, even though this was his mission, getting rejected in front of everyone like that made him quite angry.
"How can I calm down? She just embarrassed you and me in front of everyone! You deserve more respect than that," Taylor retorted, clearly not understanding the depth of Mason's vexation.
Mason's jaw tightened, and he clenched his fists, the frustration building into something more volatile. "ENOUGH! Do you think I don't know that, huh?" As he said those words, he grabbed her from her neck.
CLENCH!
"Kurghk-!" The girl struggled under his grip, but she couldn't do anything as his strength was something she couldn't resist.
"When I say something, listen well." His eyes shone red for a split second, and the girl slowly lost the strength she was using to resist.
"I-I am s-sorry."
TAP!
As her hands fell to the sides, Mason released his grip on Taylor, pushing her away with a force that sent her stumbling to the side.
His eyes still tinged with a faint red glow, reflected a mix of anger and frustration.
As Taylor mumbled an apology, Mason muttered under his breath, "That bitch's time will come soon enough. No one embarrasses me like that and gets away with it. You don't need to worry about it."
With a dismissive glance, he turned away, leaving Taylor to collect herself. However, suddenly, he stopped for a second as if he realized something while looking at the girl.
She was breathing heavily, but there was a strange glint in her eyes as if something wasn't right.
Mason's sudden change in demeanor was palpable. He seemed to have perceived something in Taylor's reaction, prompting him to alter his course. "Come here," he commanded, and Taylor, almost robotically, moved closer without a word.
"Sorry for that," Mason mumbled, his arms enveloping her in an oddly gentle manner. As he whispered under his breath, an otherworldly energy emanated from him, enveloping them both. The surroundings seemed to darken momentarily, creating an almost surreal atmosphere.
SMOOCH!
And then, in the darkness of the night, two lips pressed together, just like that, as the girl left herself in his arms.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
