Aeon Nether & Idol Effigy

Chapter 53- Rain...Why?

Before Harvey's face could hide his amusement and Rebecca could call me out in some way, Rain answered my question publicly.

"Because it's funny."

This statement annoyed me.

Harvey's quirked up lip paying attention only to me irked me.

These quasi cultists and that female dog of a person just made me question life. Hello? God? There's clearly better breeds to give the ability to communicate. No, now listen to me. Yeah, they have money and look like they have class, but... do they? Can you define it? Must you come down to give them even more power? I didn't even command it to speak and it spoke.

Ah- This Harvey guy was worse than Felix. He's making me feel some type of, what's it called? Emotions! EMOTIONS.

This nerd.

Higher than average making my below average being and grades look bad.

Wait! What am I thinking about? I shook my head!

Rebecca looked like she wanted to act out about me, but I don't even know her in this life. Is it because Harvey's her boyfriend? I didn't date the guy and get played like Emma, before this thing jumped up to play with people.

Is Harvey even her boyfriend this time?

Was Trina powerful enough to match-make Harvey to someone like Rebecca in the last time line? I don't know how to feel. Maybe I was too hyped up when I saw Trina falling over herself, she just wasn't bothered enough to try and she might have not remembered the novel her, who got po-no, she clearly does, why else did she go up on stage to talk about Emma bullying her. Well, it's possible that she remembered the book she read before she got transmigrated and didn't know about the novel her that I read.

My brain hurts.

I don't need to work that out. What I need to be aware of is the fact that many people transmigrated into this world. Scary as it is, people may have already read a book or know something about me when they transmigrated. Doesn't this kinda mean that I was on easy mode so far and that the novel's vagueness might have just been the limitation on the information given to me. If so, Trina is probably a lot smarter and capable than I gave her credit for.

Snap.

"Hmmm?", my gentle hum came out confused and questioning. It was too gentle. Gentle enough to embarrass me.

Harvey waved the hand that he used to snap his fingers in front of my face, "Oh, so you're awake now? You looked... concerning. Did something happen?"

"No. Yes. Well, it's happening! N-Not this or you, but- Life. Just life. Life is happening and I was thinking about it." Finishing my answer I brought a hand up to my forehead to both hold up my head and hide my face.

Harvey laughed at me again. Does he do this often? I don't remember.

Harvey, "it's fine, it's fine. What do you think about the theme? I want to ask you to compose for us, but I know you always work alone after you got screwed over by that big group project a bit ago."

"Thank you."

The cliques that were whispering to each other a moment ago and Rebecca looked up at us stupidly.

Rebecca snorted, "Who needs her to write the composition? Is it because that's the only thing she knows to do?"

The cliques also stopped and said that they were going to make the choreography and lyrics between each other. I don't really mind. Then Rebecca nominated herself as the captain and said she'd write the composition herself with a classical feel to it. All leaving me and Harvey with hardly any place to be included. Although Harvey still included himself in things, the others would kick me out of the practice room every time I'd try to get in with an excuse that I was distracting and they hadn't done anything yet.
