Reincarnated as a cannon fodder in an otome game

Chapter 8

^The bitch from before. I still don't have face claims for the princes.

*Still unedited 

3rd Person

In the end, the princes and Megumi failed to find the said, pink boy. They eventually forgot about him.

Asuri was leaning on the window sill with Chikako, humming a random tune, observing his family's magic and physical training. "Is it possible for us to go to school soon? Dad's best friend offered him scholarships for the both of us but I don't know when." Chikako was getting excited and impatient.

"The scholarships were for high school. Though I guess we'd get there earlier than most students since Mrs. Fanna recommended us to her brother who was one of the higher-ups in the academy." Asuri tried to soothe his sister which actually...worked?

"Yeah, you're right. I'll train my magic with you and we will both reach the top with no nobles stepping on us" She climbed up the window posing with both of her hands on either side of her hips, chin up, closed eyes, and a determined expression.

Not long after, she lost balance causing her to fall. But Asuri was quick enough to take action and use Breeze flight on his sister, making her float mid-air. Chikako turned to her brother, giving him a thumbs up and a grateful smile.

"Thank you, little brother. I was wondering, can you use that spell to lift heavy things like the entire house? It would use up so much mana but I think it's possible" Chikako was curious.

It actually can. Perks on having infinite mana. "No, my mana is too small. Trying to carry our house would probably make me pass out in less than 30 seconds." Asuri responded, lying. It was a white lie though.

"Good point!" She gave Asuri a thumbs up again.

Chikako knew that Asuri was more powerful than her but she wasn't jealous. She's actually proud of him. Asuri would help Chikako improve and learn spells causing for them to be closer. She also knew that he was gay, scratch that, their whole family knew. But that didn't affect their relationship negatively, they were all supportive.

It was already dusk when the two of them saw a woman lurking behind the trees, no noise was heard from the person. Sound magic. Alert from what the woman would do, they looked at each other before giving their attention to the random person. None of the people outside saw this since it was dark.

All of a sudden, the woman jumped holding something. Jumin sensed the danger coming from behind and immediately took a dagger from his pocket, slashing the item the man was holding. "Damn you! I was about to kill that bitch! You're supposed to be mine, Jumin my love!" The woman maniacally yelled. "You– Amie?" Jumin realizing who the person was, looked shocked.

"I'm not yours, my heart only belongs to Yua!" Jumin yelled

"So that's how you're going to play huh?! I was the one who keeps leaving you flowers every day at your table whenever you're at your office. But I found out that you threw out all of them!" She yelled, clutching her hair tightly, breathing unevenly.

"Of course I would throw them out, I'm a faithful husband!" Jumin argued, making Yua flush like a teenager.

Seeing this reaction from Yua, Amie gathered large amounts of mana them immediately hit Yua with it.

The children attacked Amie until both of her hands were sealed with Tsuki's crystal magic.

Amie, struggling to stand, went on a smothered her face on the dirt below her. Ew.
