Chapter 176



Emily headed back to the mansion to pick up Lilitth, while the others started to get ready for school as well . Alex who was in a hurry last night wasn’t able to bring his uniform, good thing Emily brought it for him .

Evangeline called for her driver to bring her uniform as well as escort them to school . Oliver on the other hand bolted out and went back to his house to get changed, since he wasn’t expecting this to happen . Good thing his parents were really cool with almost everything . . . Now Oliver started to think, if there was a reason for that .

Kei was the only who was truly prepared for the sleepover . He took a bath changed clothes and was ready to go .

It took Rachel and Evangeline some time to prepare . Once the two were done, the group went inside the car Evangeline requested . Usually Kei would hesitate to get in, but after tonight he felt a bit more comfortable with being in this group .

. . .

When the group got to the gates of the school, Sayaka was there waiting for them . When she saw them the first thing she did was hug Rachel .

"Sorry about not being there for you Rachel . "

"It’s alright Saya, but you need to tell me how you knew about the bounty on my head . " Rachel smiled gently at her best friend .

"Sure . . . I will explain it later at lunch when everyone is present . " While Sayaka and Rachel were talking, Alex had noticed something different with Sayaka . The presence she was giving off was almost nonexistent, for someone like Alex who is used to sensing the presence of others more than using his eyes, he found this situation really weird .

Not only was he unable to detect the hallucinogen last night, he was now having difficulty sensing the presence of others . If this continues he might not be able to protect Rachel properly .

’I guess I really need to retrain myself . I hope he comes quickly . . . ’

. . .

While the group was having this conversation in front of the school gates . Emily was sending Lilitth to her school .

"Emily nee-san, are you alright? You haven’t spoken since we left the mansion . " Lilitth looked at Emily a little worried . The outspoken Emily hasn’t talked since awhile ago . Usually when they were alone, Emily would immediately talk about her favorite anime .

"Oh . . . Umm, it’s nothing Lilitth, I was just thinking about something . No need to worry . . . Oh see were here already . . . I guess I’ll see you later Lilitth . "

"Emily nee-san-" As Lilitth was calling her name Emily left without hearing her out . Lilitth was really worried at this point .

"I wonder what’s happening to Emily nee-san . " As Lilitth thought about that, she suddenly saw a familiar person running to her .

"Lilitth! Waaah!" Niki suddenly appeared and hugged Lilitth while crying .

"Whoah, what’s the problem Niki?"

"Nii-nii, nii-nii has, nii-nii has waah!" Niki began to cry again and hugged Lilitth even tighter .

. . .

Back in Alex’s school the students looked on in shock . Niel who stood in front of Alex and the gang with his usual radiant aura and smile, had something really different from yesterday . The almost, always perfect Niel had bandages on his arm .

"What happened to our Niel!"

"Who dares do that to Niel?! I’ll kill him!"

"Niel are you alright? Where does it hurt, come here I’ll kiss it to make it all better . "

"What the hell are you saying b*tch! What are you trying to do in the midst of the confusion . If anyone is going to kiss Niel’s arms it’s me!"

A huge commotion happened when the student body saw Niel’s bandaged arm . Even the other members of the Mercenary Club aside from Alex were shocked to see Niel’s arm bandaged .

"What happened to you Niel?" Rachel asked a bit worried .

"It’s nothing much, a criminal came into my house and tried to steal some stuff and I stopped him . . . Well unfortunately, he got the better of me and was able to stab my left arm . It was a good thing that I was able to contact the police beforehand and they were able to come and save me . "

Niel told the others the story he and Alex approved of . The moment the other students heard what Niel said another uproar started .

"Damn robber! Hurting Niel like that, it’s a good thing the police were able to come on time . If not who knows what could have happened to Niel . "

"Niel’s so cool! Able to stop a vicious criminal all by himself!"

"As expected of Niel, even when the criminal had a weapon he didn’t back down . "

Though the other students were convinced by Niel’s explanation . The people of the Mercenary club plus Evangeline didn’t believe what Niel said . It must have been some kind of amazing criminal if they were able to wound Niel so badly . If it were a normal robber Niel would’ve dealt with him with ease . Still knowing that Niel doesn’t seem like he wants to talk about it, the group decided not push him for answers .

. . .

It was now lunch time, and as usual everyone was in the clubroom, while Lyner was sleeping . All the members seem to be going through something at the moment since it wasn’t as lively as usual .

Emily and Sayaka who were usually the life of the group were silent as well . Seeing as no one was willing to speak, Rachel decided to be the one to break the silence .

"So Saya, you told me that you would explain how you knew about the bounty on my head . Will you care to explain that, to me, now?"

Sayaka who was quietly eating her meal, looked at Rachel . She saw that though Rachel’s voice seem calm the look in her eyes said otherwise . Sayaka seeing her best friend like that, could only sigh before answering .

"I guess I should, shouldn’t I? . . . *sigh* Well Rachel and all my friends gathered here today . There’s no easy way to tell this to you guys but . . . I’m an assassin . "

The moment Sayaka said this everything went quiet and after a few seconds, almost all the members shouted in unison .

"WHAT?!"
