Re: The Villainess Does It With Class

Chapter 253 - I Dreamed A Dream Pt. 3



The pain didn't register quickly. Blood then trickled down from the side of her mouth, making her eyes red in grievances. She stopped her feeble attempts of resistance and gawked. She was shocked because she had never been hit so rudely before.

The leader grabbed Helen on the ground and roughly pulled her hair. She could only let out a weak groan, her hands grasping the man's arm. Ignoring her, the man tilted her head to the side and stared at the area behind the woman's right ear. There, he saw a hollow triangle, which is the symbol for fire and the goddess' Feronia's mark. Her descendants bear this same mark on their body which is an indication of their bloodline.

Confirming that she was their target, the leader pushed her to his people without a hint of kindness.

"Tie her up!"

Nadia woke up from her daze and saw the people tying her mother up so she began to resist again. 

"No! Mommy! Mommy!" Nadia's tears soaked her cheeks and blurred her eyes.

Helen made one more attempt but she was knocked out before she could do anything. The last thing she saw was her daughter screaming and crying which made her heart sting.

"What about this child?" One of the men asked the leader.

"Kill her. She's not our target." The leader waved it off like it was nothing.

"But she's this woman's child, do you think she also has the blessings?"

The leader got silent for a moment before nailing his cruel eyes on the little girl. Without a word, he grasped the child's chin with his big hand and tilted her head. Nadia wanted to bite this hand too but the hold in her tightened to the point of pain.

It was so painful that another fresh bout of tears fell down her glassy eyes.

The leader then suddenly laughed out loud upon seeing the same symbol on the child.

"Good! Good! The lord will be happy to see her! Bring this child along!"

Nadia was filled with grievances. Her young innocent eyes then caught the scene around her and were shocked for the second time. There was blood everywhere and all the people who went with them were on the ground, unmoving, dead.

She saw one of the big guys who always give her snacks on her left, dead. And many more. She understood what death is because she witnessed the death of one of their horses. But it wasn't bloody, not like this at all.

The smell of death hung heavily in the air and agitated Nadia's senses. She could perceive that these people on the ground are not alive anymore. It was a strange feeling and it was messing with her head.

These people killed their guards and now they are going to kill them. They are going to take her mother away…

She was unwilling. Unwilling!

"Waaaaaaah!" Her loud cry echoed through the forest and disturbed the life inside.

It was piercing the air and hurt anyone's ears that would hear it.

"Shut her up!" The leader snarled as he covered his ears.

Before someone could, the surrounding air churned and swirled. The men who were holding her were blown a few meters away from their places. The air condensed around her and magic fluctuated, seemingly flowing out of her body.

The men were caught in surprise as her magic power grew stronger, preventing anyone from approaching her. The leader laughed in glee, his face had a look of greed. But soon, he felt that the situation was wrong. He cursed out loud and took a step back.

No matter what, they have to bring this child with them too. But first…

Two men tried to snatch her again but they were caught in the turbulent waves and were pushed back again. 

"Damn it! We couldn't come close!"

"Make her sleep!"

"Mommy… waaaah…" 

"Agh! Shit!"

The leader watched another one of them flying off in the distance and gritted his teeth. 

"You bad people! Bad! Waaaah! You killed my uncle Enoc and took mommy away. I hate you! Wuuuu…"

The leader's eyes became gloomy. He condensed the magic in his palm and blasted it in the little girl's direction. Nadia felt intense pain as she hit the ground hard after being blown away. Her line of sight danced and the world kept spinning, making her dizzy.

"Go get her quickly!" The leader yelled.

Two men went into action and grabbed her. Nadia's gaze fell on them and got angry.

"Die! Die!" She shrieked with conviction. Her words were pulled from the depth of her heart and seriously meant it. She was filled with hate at this moment and all she wanted was for these men to disappear and for her mommy to come back.

The men holding her turned rigid all at once and vomited blood at the same time. They lost their balance and fell. Soon, the earth below them glowed crimson and their lives were extinguished.

The others who had witnessed this scene were stunned. They looked at the two on the ground and found out they were not breathing.

"What the…"

"What happened? Why did they die?" One of them asked in bewilderment.

The leader glared at them.

"Stop dallying and get her already!"

"But…"

Though confused, these men still followed his orders but those who moved also shared the same fate as the two people.

"Die! I hate you!"

With the little girl's scream, another person vomited blood and fell lifeless on the ground, sending the rest in panic.

"T-the girl! She's--"

"Wuuu… Daddy… Save me waaaah… Mommy…" The little girl was sitting on the ground, crying her heart out. Her once clean lavender dress was now dirty and wrinkled.

When the leader understood the situation, he couldn't help but curse again. It seems like if they tried to get closer to her, they would instantly lose their lives. This little girl may look small and harmless but she's the most dangerous! With only words! She could actually kill them with just words!

He didn't hesitate any longer and came to a conclusion. 

"Bring this woman away first!" He ordered.

Nadia heard this and looked at the people who were leaving with her mother on one of the men's shoulders. 

"Mommy!" She cried again.

Her mind was chaotic and she was severely confused. Seeing her mother disappearing from the trees broke her reason and a powerful surge rushed out of her. These people were suddenly slapped by magic purer than they had ever encountered. The pressure went to their heads and chests like something heavy was pressing them down.

Beads of sweat matted their foreheads and backs. They resisted the urge to vomit blood but those who have weaker resolve were already on the ground, gasping like fish out of water.

The leader's eyes were already bloodshot.

'Kill her!'

He gathered enough mana that could instakill a person, but this also meant that he would exhaust the power in his magic crystal. But it doesn't matter, he must kill this child before she could kill them.

A meter-long bolt was on his hand, condensed by the remaining mana he had. He gripped it tightly and aimed. With an extreme effort, he shot the bolt straight to the child's heart. At the same time, a huge surge of magic swept through them. Their heart stopped beating instantly and broke like glass.

All the magicians present fell like flies, dead on the spot. The bolt then reached the girl but at the critical moment, her mana core exploded, blasting it to nothingness. The air was disturbed and flattened a wide diameter of land, blowing away the trees, and turning the corpses into dust. 

The atmosphere churned and reversed, resulting in a huge suction from the body of the little girl that seemed to want to devour everything and then everything faded into black.
