Jennette Margarita

Chapter 7

Yesterday, was such a bad day. I foresighted the day however to think experiencing it in real-time would be so hard for my mental health.

Meeting my biological father in my 11th year in this world.

However, as soon as I woke up the next morning I can see myself grinning to myself throughout the whole day. Today is such a great day.

If not for the fact that, that assassin charging towards me.

"What number* are you?" I asked along with my yawn.

(*She calls the assassins 'number' since she doesn't know how many have come after her head these past years)

Silence comes after.

He attempted to throw a knife but I quickly jumped out of my bed to dodge it. It got stuck in my wall deeper than I thought.

"You know, I like silence but I hate silent treatment," I said, even though this guy is not listening to me at all.

He threw me another knife, I moved away from my position again. being on the defensive side, it made a lot of holes in my wall. What a sight.

I attempted to catch some knives but unfortunately failed, the assassin merely smirks at my careless recklessness of trying to catch the knives. And it made a small graze on my left hand.

So I decided I would just dodge instead of catching little sh*ts.

"Mr. Assassin, I kind of ask this to the previous numbers too but what are you after from killing me?"

He flinched a little bit from my question. I refrained from speaking for 10 minutes, I one-sidedly fought him by being on a defensive side. Kind of hard but I quite enjoy dodging games. I loved playing dodgeball in my previous life.

He's still not stopping despite all his efforts to strike a blow. He even attempted to punch my face but unfortunately,

'I keep my face in maintenance, you know. It would be bad if I go to school with a bruise on the face that I cherished so much.'

My room became quite a mess after all the morning exercise. Well, should I teach my exercise coach a lesson too?

Forget about killing, today I have the motivation to gather information regarding the mastermind behind all this.

I quickly moved behind him, he didn't notice since he's still slower than me. I then used a neck cut, a technique used to make your opponent lose consciousness. This means he's still alive.

I moved him over to a blind spot when you open the door, it is on the left side of my bed, by the window. I search all over his body and found out that he was a 'she' all along.

Under her clothes, I found something as my eyes went wide open as soon as I took a look at the picture.

"Wh-

I found a crucial lead.

Yesterday - Duke Alpheus office

Ijikiel's Pov

"You called me, father?" I asked my father, who is sitting on his chair holding his pen and signing on documents. I was standing room right before his desk full of documents. I

"I see that you're back, it was unexpected,"

"There was a situation in Arlanta that's why the students were forced to go home"

"I see, so what happened there?"

"There was-

"What a mess" My father clicked his tongue in disappointment. Hope that wasn't meant for me.

"Indeed, it is, father" I showed a bit of an unhappy face.

He put down his pen and spent a few seconds thinking about something. It is refreshing to see my father again in two years.

Father is, as usual, a workaholic. And Jennette may have not to change but her appearance changed. She grew up a bit. She was taller than I was when we were younger but now she's shorter than me.

I laugh at the jokes I made inside my head. Waiting for my father's next words.

"....."

'It was like yesterday since I've left home.' I insidely sighed in relief that I made it back home safely. I look around the room and nothing changed at all.

"Ijikiel"

Finally, he spoke up.

"What is it, father?"

"Since Arlanta is no more, I suggest you to transfer to the academy here in Obelia"

"I shall do so father"
