More than 30 teachers rushed into the hall like an army of ants; these were the "original teachers" who had left the substitutes and newcomers to face the storm alone. Holinia stood in their midst, her gaze burning with the bitterness of memories.
She remembered "Zikriya"—that poor girl who used to have papers thrown at her and her belongings destroyed. When she went to complain, these teachers would dismiss her coldly, leaving her to return home in that state with no one asking after her.
A drop of despair and betrayal gathered in Holinia's eye, but it quickly evaporated. She raised her head and spoke in a voice dripping with venom:
"Oh, welcome, army of hypocrites! You were the primary cause. You turned a blind eye to what others did to me and tolerated it!"
Then, she erupted into a hysterical laugh that shook the room: "And now you call me evil? You are far worse than me, you pack of stray dogs, hypocrites wearing a costume called 'morality'!"
She stepped toward one of them, grabbed his collar forcefully, and said: "Listen to me carefully. I will not allow anyone to bring down my self-esteem. I will not tolerate those who humiliate me for their own rise. I will put you and your status under the soles of my feet!"
Then she screamed at the top of her lungs: "The person you thought was still alive is gone; she has become a demon now! Hahahaha!"
Boom! A sudden kick to the teacher's stomach sent him flying until he crashed into a desk, smashing it completely. She growled terrifyingly: "All of you will take the same dose of pain as me... who dares come near me?"
Appearance of the "Wolf" Crown Prince
At that moment, the Crown Prince, "The Sword of Death," entered. He looked at the teachers with eyes devoid of pity and said coldly: "You are the ones who made her this way, so do not try to fix what you have ruined now."
Holinia turned to him and said sarcastically: "Look who's here... the wolf!"
He replied with a laugh: "Heh, yes. Did I get a promotion? Last time you called me a monkey or a fox."
She snapped back: "No!" and threw a book at his face. He caught it coolly and said: "No, my dear, take it easy."
Holinia froze, and a "rebooting" icon appeared over her head from the shock of that word. She screamed in disgust: "That word is disgusting! Don't say it!"
The werewolf laughed provocatively: "Hahaha, so you found words you don't like? Hahaha, my 'dear'!"
Holinia covered her ears, moving frantically: "I'm not listening! No, no, no, I'm not listening!"
When she saw he had stopped, she lowered her hands and thought to herself: (Dear? How disgusting! He gave me the creeps, damn him!)
Suddenly, she felt breath near her ear and a deep voice whispered: "D... e... a... r... y." She bolted out of the hall. The Crown Prince warmed up and dashed after her quickly. She turned to find him right behind her and screamed: "Shut up! Shuuuuut uuuup!"
She ran through the hallways, turning back to find him still chasing her. She decided to take an alternative route by jumping from the third-floor window onto a tree and then to the ground. She began to strut away, nose in the air. But she found him standing in front of her as if he were her shadow!
Shocked, she said: "Leave me alone, you pile of fleas!"
He replied with a smile: "There is no escape from me. I am your shadow, my dear."
She exploded in his face: "No, you are my worst nightmare! You idiot who doesn't respect privacy... you ugly man! Yes, you are ugly!" Then she ran, leaving him in a state of daze.
The Cafeteria Scene and Lucian's Shroud
She entered the cafeteria and kicked the door hard (poor door!). She sat far away to order her food, when suddenly the "Main Characters" walked in.
She looked at Lucian (the Saint): "The walking shroud has arrived!"
Then she looked at Aiden: "Heh, the wanted lunatic from the asylum has appeared."
Then Dylan: "Tch... that so-called idiot is here? Damn, they all look like rabid dogs for the sake of the heroine... my head!"
Lucian approached and said: "Holinia, you have changed a lot."
She replied sharply: "I've changed, and what's it to you? Are you someone who can interfere with others as you please? If you have nothing to say, don't talk to me. Get lost! Your face ruins my meal, and not just you—even those behind you. Get lost, you corrupt fleas!"
Everyone was shocked. Dylan said: "We just wanted to check on you after we heard you were in a coma for a long time."
Holinia ground her teeth, thinking: (I want to punch him, I want to hit him, but that stupid System... I want to strike him and disfigure his wretched face to make it a high-class masterpiece, but I must calm down. Calm down, hold your nerves.)
She accidentally smashed the table with her hand.
She replied chokingly: "I don't want anyone asking about me; it makes me feel like I'm breaking! Get lost, you and your desire to check on me. You pretend to care, but in the end, you used to say I was an unwanted daughter! Your faces disgust me!"
The System window appeared, warning her. She said: "Fine, I won't speak, but I have another way of dealing with this!"
To the shock of everyone and the System, she stood up, grabbed the food in front of her, and threw it over all of their heads! Then, she raised her middle finger and said: "To everyone... go to hell, all of you!"
She tossed her hair and strutted away, leaving them in total shock.
