Why Should I Stop Being a Villain

323 Confrontation

Upon arriving at the World Academy through the portal, Elsa gazed at the trio.

"Don't do anything else for today. Go back to your rooms and spend your time thinking about what you learned," Elsa said.

"I'll give you guys a five-day leave, so use that time wisely," Elsa told them, her attention shifting as one of her assistants approached.

Elsa hoped they would remember everything they had learned at the Sanctuary of Mages.

They were permitted to take only five books, but there was no limit to how many they could read while there.

She was about to share more when the voice of assistant interrupted her.

"Professor, these are the papers you requested," the assistant said, handing Elsa three files.

She accepted them but chose not to open them immediately.

"You can all head to the Rankers Dorm now," Elsa directed, heading towards the Faculty Building.

Amelia took out her phone, texting Damian to inform him they were inside the World Academy.

Asher stood there as he opened his ID Bracelet to message someone as well.

Alyssa quietly went ahead as well as wasn't feeling too well right now.

Although she had behaved normally, but her internal emotions were a mess.

And there was an important thing she needed to do, so she went ahead towards the Rankers Dorm.

There wasn't many Students in the path that Alyssa took. Even in any student saw her, they would just turn their faces with a disgusted look on their faces.

But Alyssa didn't notice those stares at all.

She knew that the current her wasn't powerful enough, and her whole life she had learnt how to avoid things that could lead to a bad outcome but leaving the only remnant of her mother behind wasn't easy for her.

But she knew that it was the best decision for her.

After all, she still remembered the moment when her mother asked for her to be spared.

The only reason, nobody came after her life was because she wasn't a threat to anyone.

And 'they' didn't consider a 5 Year Old girl, that was almost crippled to be a threat at that time.

Chances of Alyssa living past 20 were slim, and even if she did, her strength wouldn't grow past a certain limit.

As Alyssa was fighting her thoughts, a certain person's voice made her stop.

"Damn my luck, now I have to see this bitch," A Young man said as Alyssa looked up and see saw a familiar face.

A face that she had seen quite a few times when she was young, but there were no good memories attached with this person.

Light blond hair and black eyes, features that resembled Alexander Astaria who had red hair and black eyes.

It was Alan Astaria.

"What are you looking at?" Alan said with annoyed look on his eyes.

Alyssa remained quiet as her lifeless eyes looked toward Alan.

"Hah? Do you think you are above me or something?" Alan said as he raised his eyebrows.

Alyssa noticed the surroundings, and she was in place that was one of the route that was shared by VIP Dorms and Rankers Dorms.

But due to the distance, it was rarely used and due to that Alyssa picked this path to return to Rankers Dorms but she didn't think she would encounter her half brother.

Usually Alan would never come across Alyssa due to their schedule and different classes, but now he was standing before her, the look of disgust was visible on his face.

Unlike other Rankers, Alan didn't consider Alyssa a threat.

"Listen well, you are supposed to live as if you don't exist," Alan said as he looked down at Alyssa.

Seeing no reaction from Alyssa made Alan even more irritated.

But Alan knew he couldn't attack or injure Alyssa right now due to the restrictions.

But that also applied to Alyssa as well.

Alan didn't knew he would encounter Alyssa like this. He was only going to meet someone in the Senior Year, but seeing Alyssa made his blood boil.

Currently Alan was not in the right mental state, he would still have nightmares sometime but he had gotten a bit better as he focused on improving his rank.

And he was even close to reaching D- Rank, and this was also the reason he was going to meet a Senior Year Student that was part of the Blood Faction.

Alan didn't know why but after the Kalvas Gala, Leonard met with him and Gavin a few times and invited them to a few meetings as well.

But seeing that Leonard Tarvian was supporting him, Alan felt a bit more powerful and he was regaining his confidence.

But Asher was not the only thing that affected Alan during his time in World Academy.

During his whole life, Alan was told that Alyssa was nothing but a disgrace to Astaria Household's name.

And not only the Servants but even listening to Alexander and his mother's conversation Alan developed disgust towards Alyssa from a young age.

Alan was taught about different things that was needed as he was already made the Heir of the Astaria family.

Having so much power in his hands, it was easy for him to bully a crippled girl that he thought only brought hatred towards the Astaria Household.

Alyssa moved out to avoid that environment at a young age, and Alan didn't bother going after her as he thought that someone like her would die one day or another.

But now that same girl not only was learning inside the World Academy with him, she was a Ranker as well.

Despite the fact that everyone hated Alyssa, the fact that Alan lost towards her half sister that couldn't even walk on her own made many people mock him.

Ofcourse, nobody said it to his face due to his status but from the video of him getting brutally beaten by Asher and the fact that Alyssa outshined him, made his confidence drop to its lowest.

And seeing Alyssa in front of him, made him feel nothing but anger.

"Ofcourse, a daughter born from a bitch is also a bitch," Alan said as he saw Alyssa going past him on her wheelchair.

"Tsk," Alan clicked his tongue as he got reaction from Alyssa.

Alan turned as he felt that if he stayed there for even a single more second, he would find it hard for him to control his anger.

But he didn't knew that his decision almost save his life.

Currently, the lifeless eyes of Alyssa went completely cold, as she moved forward in her wheelchair barely holding herself back from killing Alan on the spot.

Right now, Alyssa was in the worst place mentally, and listening Alan insult her mother made her almost lost herself in rage.

She clutched her hand so hard that her nails digged into her skin and made her palms bleed.

'Kill Him'

'Kill Him'

Voices screamed inside Alyssa's head and she barely held herself from forming Ice lance and killing Alan on the spot.

"W-Wait, th-the time hasn't come yet," Alyssa muttered as he looked at the ground.

Alan on the other hand didn't notice the dense killing intent around Alyssa as he went ahead.

Arriving at the Rankers Dorm, Alyssa stood up as went to the bath room and looked at her uniform that was covered in her own blood.

And her hands that were still bleeding.

She had freezed her hand to stop the blood flowing out of her hand, but she removed the spell when she stepped inside the Ranker's Dorm.

Due to that, there were multiple blood stains across the room till she reached the bathroom.

Washing her hand, Alyssa looked at the wound, but the pain that she was feeling was almost numb.

Normal wounds didn't even hurt Alyssa anymore due to the amount of pain she had endured during the time that her mana meridians were damaged.

The water flowed through her hand, as Alyssa looked at herself in the mirror, and all she could see were her lifeless cold yes.

She touched the mirror with her bleeding hands.

"Soon," Alyssa muttered.

During her time inside the Sanctuary of Mages, Alyssa only read the books that were written by Elizabeth, and reading them made her recall the memories of her younger self, when Elizabeth was still alive.

But looking at herself in the mirror, Alyssa could see that the once bright girl in her memories was nowhere present.

The one standing there with her palms bleeding, was nothing alike the bright girl she was once in the past.
