Hunting Contest Part 2: Teammates















Icy blue eyes that look intimidating enough to look at and her shining dark blue hair that shone under the bright moonlight of the lake, a beautiful yet frightening aura — Queen Lucia, Wife of King Samuel and is also one of the Alphas and the murderer who killed everyone.



Her pale skin and red rosy lips and pink cheeks make her look even more beautiful like the snow moon.



"Greetings, Descendant of Almighty Aniya. This lady's name is Luna. Lucia's Descendant." She bows her head down, showing her respect and courtesy towards Elyse which feels so new for her.



Everyone ridiculed her instantly when Luna bows down her head. It made Elyse understand the situation quickly well when she sensed everyone was glaring at her with sharp knives.



Luna is trying to humiliate her.



Elyse smiled.



"Stand up, My Lady you shouldn't do this." Elyse tries to act pitiful.



"I should be the one showing the courtesy My Lady, This Lady's name is Elyse. Although everyone is telling me I am Aniya's Descendant, I shouldn't confirm it today." Elyse justifies. Although it was a bit strange for her to not say she's Aniya's Descendant since she's wearing her necklace. The true reason behind it is that she couldn't accept to be a traitor's descendant.



Luna quickly felt pissed and turns to look at the audience.



"You all dare to ridicule Elyse?!" She said with her frightful voice which made Elyse surprised.



'I thought she was trying to humiliate me...'



'Am I mistaken?'



"You of all people don't know the true story behind so you better seal your lips unless you want me to know what death feels like," Luna exclaims which made the audience avoid their gazes toward Elyse.



'Amazing...' Elyse thought. 'So, this is what it feels like to be Lucia's Descendant.' she said to herself feeling a little bit jealous. Lucia's Descendant is extremely confident in everyone while Elyse who was supposed to be Aniya's Descendant should also be confident in herself. But she couldn't bring it to be confident.



"Pardon their rudeness, Elyse they —"



"It's fine. Totally fine. C-can I sit now? I'm a little tired." Elyse cuts off Luna's words.



'No, she might be trying to trick me again and then humiliate me. Yes, that's right it must be it.' Elyse said, convincing herself.



"W-well, if you say so," Luna answered. "Well then, I shall get going now." She continues and walked away from Elyse with a smile on her face. Elyse avoided her gaze and went straight away from them.



"Wait! Where are you going?" Arbor grabbed her arm. "Huh? I'm going to sit —"



"You're a member of the school, Elyse. You should sit here." Arbor said and drags her all the way to the line seat where all of the important and high-profile officials such as Wayne, Maria, Lucas, Yohan, The Student Council President, and Hezelle sat at.



"Wait! Why am I—!"



"Yo, Elyse." Her words were interrupted when Wayne approached her.
