Chapter 34: Misery is for Free

Well that was the result I expected.

That's what I thought as I saw the massive dragon losing consciousness on the ground. Of course despite having a potent venom injected inside his neck, he was still alive and well, nothing that he can't recuperate with time, as his own energy will soon purify this damage and he will slowly heal by itself, and with the health service here, it should be even faster.

I know very well how hard it is to kill a pokemon, especially one as strong as this dragonite.

"Ouch." Iono slowly stood up from me while massaging her head.

I really don't know why, but she just decided to jump on me in the middle of nowhere, but once more it didn't look like she was trying to hurt me.

If it wasn't because she already agreed to be my friend in exchange for me filming her, I would have proposed to her to exchange it for me teaching her how to actually hurt someone.

Well it allows me to avoid remembering some unpleasant memories, so it all works out.

By the way, there still wasn't a single person who watched the live despite the fight...except if I deleted my memory for some reason.

"Are you okay Luciel?" Iono suddenly asked before reaching her hand toward me.

But before I could ask why she made such a strange gesture, she suddenly fell on top of me.

"Oof!" I couldn't stop this weird sound from leaving my mouth as her fall forced the oxygen from leaving my lungs.

At least, I didn't have to wonder why she suddenly did this, as Lance approached angrily toward our position. "IT'S YOU! IT'S YOUR FAULT THAT I LOST!!! YOU DISTRACTED ME WITH YOUR USELESS BANTER TOWARD A FAKE AUDIENCE!!!"

"Lance! Stop! This isn't what we talked about!" I heard Aaron from the audience, but I didn't give him any attention, and neither did Lance as he suddenly raised his hand as if he was preparing an attack.

Noticing it as a threat, Pandora climbed on me and prepared his own claw, which finally made Lance pause for a moment.

"You're alive?" But he resumed his movement right after. "Then it probably means you had something to do with my defeat too! You probably wanted to diminish my reputation so you could wreak havoc as you please inside the academy! Without! Anyone strong enough to stop you from doing it!"

"What do you mean? I didn't have to do anything to defeat you?" I asked in confusion, but he responded even more angrily.

"Lie! Lie done by yet another person daring to refuse my plan of peace!"

"...oh, I see! I get why you are angry, you think I stand against your goal!" I answered happily, as I realised that maybe I could still' become friends with him, or maybe at least he won't hate me. My happiness also made him stop again, as he looked at me in confusion. Well if he is confused, then it is my duty to explain it to him.

I mustered the best smile I was able to do, one that I practiced in front of the mirror while I was being used as a doll. I made it the widest I could, so everyone would understand that it was the best. "I don't care about peace, nor about war! After all, both hurt as much as the other, so feel free to cause as much pain as you need to make yourself happy, I will simply take all of it. I will even smile if you want, I can even scream! Oh, I'm sorry, you probably wouldn't like me to scream with how much you repeat everyone to stay silent toward you, so I will say nothing, see how good I am at it!" I simply stared at him with my smile, even if it started to cause pain to my cheek, I made sure to not lower the intensity for even one moment.
