“As I told you before,” Leon said.
“Everything is destined to be unfair. Life and death. Right and wrong…they are meaningless concepts. In the end, each of us has his own destiny.”
He walked over to the corpse still holding the knife and bowed. Emilia couldn’t help but flinch as he quickly pulled out the bloody weapon;
There was a sticky trail of blood hanging between it and the jagged wound.
“There are no moral rules, not really. In the end there is only survival and what you are willing to do to secure yourself.”
These were not Leon’s words, but he had read this line at an earlier event in the novel and it had been stuck in his head ever since he found himself in this world.
In fact, these were his inner words that pushed him forward
These words were what made him endure all the pain in order to evolve
For the first time in her life, Emilia Clarke couldn’t help but stop and wonder as she watched the redhead effortlessly wipe the blood from the thug’s weapon onto the clothes of the dead man’s body.
She wonders who the strange boy in front of her is, as she has never seen someone in her life help someone he does not know
To kill for her, especially in a place like this
Who was she even for him to do this to her?
A strange feeling crept into her heart, a feeling she had not felt even with Max, even though everything was fake
Is it a feeling of security, the feeling that someone cared for her and someone who does not covet anything from her?
Someone like the caretakers of the orphanage where she lived
Emilia looked into the violet eyes that had previously been cold as ice and now held a natural warmth
And all that warmth directed at her made her feel butterflies inside her aching stomach
Emilia tried to stand, but today fatigue, everything that happened to her, and her being beaten by the man previously made her unable to stand properly.
She felt tired and it started to take over and her eyes rolled back into her head and she fell to the ground again
As she was preparing tocollide painfully with the ground, she felt some hands wrapping around his delicate body
The last thing she saw were violet eyes that looked like moving galaxies looking at her with concern
She felt safe in his hands, as if he was the right person for her
He called her still naive, stupid, and following her feelings despite everything she’s been through
But for the last time, she decided to trust the strange boy in front of her who was carrying her in his arms
She allowed unconsciousness to take her while she was in his arms
Leon looked at Emilia unconscious in his arms and sighed, ‘She must be tired from today’s events.’
For the first time, Leon focused on Emilia, who was unconscious in his hands
All the events of the day made him focused on everything that happened and the goons who tried to rape her
This is something that is never mentioned in the novel
Maybe in the first place, these idiots actually succeeded in raping her
This was a fundamental reason why Emilia was not one of the protagonist’s heroines and not part of his large harem
This event may have had a major impact on her psyche, making her hate any relationship with anyone. Max started the matter and these thugs ended it in the worst ways.
But her survival in the world of the novel to appear in other chapters and her assistance to the protagonist from behind the scenes speaks about the extent of her strength
Even if this event had some bad effects on her psyche
Leon looked at Emilia’s delicate and casual features in his hands
Emilia had short, neck-length black hair
She must have cut it off in order to save herself the trouble of washing it, since her budget was not enough to take care of her hair.
She had milky skin, although her face was full of dirt and dust after that man threw her to the ground.
Or maybe she just didn’t have any way to take a shower to do some cleaning
She had a face that radiated natural maturity, and this came as a result of many life experiences that she had gone through, even though she was not that old.
She has a small nose that matches the perfect face shape and puffy lips, something that makes Leon lost, and a strange desire appears that tries to force him to kiss them.
Despite the blows on their sides and some dried blood on them, that did not prevent Leon’s desire from increasing
Leon looked at Emilia’s clothes
She was not wearing the most luxurious clothes due to the circumstances in which she lived
She was wearing a white shirt that was torn on some sides and looked like it had seen better days
Leon could already see her white bra that the thug had cut off in order to grope that abundant breast.
The thing that made Leon Leon’s saliva stick in his throat was her pink nipples, or at least her visible right nipple
Leon shifted his gaze with difficulty to the lower part
She was wearing a black skirt, or the black skirt was now nothing but some cut cloth covering her bright white buttocks.
Leon could see her lower clothes, as she was wearing white underwear
She was wearing long stockings that came close to her thighs
She was wearing one shoe, the left shoe. It seems that the right shoe fell off when she was attacked by this man.
In a noble act, Leon took off his jacket and covered Emilia’s lower part with it
He adjusted her shirt to cover her ample chest and protect it from being exposed to people’s eyes
Frankly, Leon was confused
How could Emilia have a perfect body in this condition
She had been through hell in this place and had probably not found anything to satisfy her hunger many times
Therefore, she was presumed to have been malnourished
But from what Leon noticed, Emilia was not suffering from any ill health
Just some dirt here and there
This is completely illogical
Leon hopes that Emilia will tell him everything that happened to her after she wakes up from unconsciousness
Leon sighed and thought, ‘I just hope she doesn’t react violently after she wakes up and finds herself in a strange room.’
Leon carried Emilia in a princess carrying form and started walking with her
“At least I will get out of this place, it is an eyesore. I would rather live in the forest than in this place.”
Leon added to himself as he looked at Emilia, “I’m also doing her a great favor by taking her from this place so early that she has to wait another six months before the protagonist finds her.”
_____________________
Well, this is today’s chapter, as I promised you. It’s titled Emilia Clarke, and tomorrow’s chapter talks about Leon during the period in which Emilia will be unconscious.
You may say that this chapter is not important, but in fact it is important. I will not consider the hero of my novel stupid or logical, as he appears in another world and perhaps he is coming from a peaceful world that does not like the idea of killing people, and suddenly you find him killing them right and left.
Without any reason, as if this is the most realistic thing in the world. Come on, if the hero of the novel is not one of the mentally ill, then there must be a valid explanation, right?
But things have to be logical here, my friend. The boy has never killed a soul before, and it does not make sense for him to start killing all the thugs in cold blood and without any reaction.
Does this seem logical to you, at least to me? No, and it will never be so. That is why you need an explanation for that, and that chapter is the explanation, even if that will postpone the continuation chapters or is in between.
Certainly, if my protagonist loved killing, I would not have given him the normal reaction to his first murder
Tomorrow’s chapter also explains why in particular the system chose to purchase the Stillness skill and not any other skill
In short, tomorrow’s chapter explains the reason that made Leon kill so coldly, and tomorrow’s chapter consists of long conversations between Leon and Elsa, where she explains to him what happened to him and why Leon went on a killing spree that made him kill all the thugs in cold blood.
And without any reaction
The important thing is to see you t
omorrow, so keep yourself safe until tomorrow’s class
To be continued in the next chapter
