Reincarnated in a Isekai World.

Chapter 16: Meanwhile.

What if I failed my task and lost my head? My parents are assassinated by her goons with my head dumped in a basket dyed with the blood of regret?

But all I care about is luxury, maybe I can become the world's richest lady ever! Perhaps I would make that filthy peasant bow down in front of me, oh! Perhaps he's going to regret his selfish decision of embarrassing me in front of the whole guest~

Way back then, Rose and I were used to being best friends. I remember when we usually stayed in the library studying for hours.

After Rose had become the student council president, she was able to gain popularity and hang out with other popular kids.

On the other hand, for instance, I was left alone in the corner. Tears would begin to leak out from my eyes when I got less attention. I'd always admired becoming the most popular girl in the class, but soon my destiny would be rewritten.

Two years ago, the first time I met Mrs.Everdeen was in the dark alley. She told me that she would promise me that I would get whatever I wanted when I accepted her tasks. I accepted her first request by poisoning a wealthy couple because I'd hoped I would gain the throne to rule the student council.

Little did I expect, Mrs.Everdeen's goons had hypnotised the whole crowd which caused people to think Rose had cheated in the competition.

Later on, Mrs.Everdeen demanded I assassinate Rose so she could become the next queen. I've tried countless methods to assassinate others, but I'm going to use a method that doesn't require anything but language to assassinate Rose.

As I walked into my dormitory, what once used to be tidy and elegant had turned into a chaotic crumpled dress frontline.

Since the school policy wants students to be responsible and organised by cleaning their rooms on their own, maids are not allowed to enter and clean the dormitory.

You see, I wasn't a person who did chores and tidied my things. I always believed the peasants and maids should show respect to nobles by cleaning after our mess.

Just when I was lost in my deep thoughts, the fancy wooden door slammed against the wall.

"Ruby, what the hell? You should have at least knocked the—" I snapped.

"Shut up," Ruby lowers her head.

"Why me?" Usually, when Ruby enters the dormitory, she would have a happy smile appear on her face. But something must have gone wrong today, now she had her face darkened. The girl of frustration had her fist tightened, "I've got kicked out of the damn student council, I've decided I should quit your damn group—"

"What a disgrace."

"SCREW YOU!"

"What did I do???"

"Because of your greed," Ruby paused," We are forced to kill Rose..."

"Who cares about that poor girl?" I tightened my grip," she's just a target for me to shoot arrows at."

"What did you say?"

"What?" I rolled my eyes.

"Have you gone nuts? You think killing someone who is the same age as you is fun?"

"That stupid girl doesn't deserve to live—"

"What the hell is wrong with you these days?" Ruby gripped my shoulders. I could feel her nails sinking into my flesh," I thought you were tired of bullying random kids too!"

Bullying kids is always fun, especially when you have the privilege to obey them. I roll my eyes," I don't care about Rose if she's dead or alive."

"I think you've brainwashed yourself into a killing machine..."
