Chapter 141 – Volume 4.16 Sun Island And Conspiracies 2
"I wonder, what sin did the old lady do to be tormented like this?"
Kiana who was startled, dropped the arm of Elder Hashna before she could even prick the needle. She quickly turned around to see who suddenly spoke.
She saw a girl leaning near the frame of the window.
"You are?" Kiana asked. She was not aware that it was Malaya yet due to her disguise. 'No wait,' her eyes narrowed when light aquamarine bored to her dull brown ones.
"Make a guess?" Malaya grinned seeing Kiana's surprised expression.
"How did you get here?" Kiana asked in wary. She gave a sideways glance at her side table where a small knife was placed.
"Pretty ease from what you already see right?" Malaya said nonchalantly.
Then the guard from a few hours ago passed to mind. "You are the one who sent Maldrick here."
"Bingo." Malaya flicked her right fingers. "You got it right."
"What are doing here?" Kiana said as she acted protected in front of the unconscious Elder Hashna. "Are you going to hurt her again?" She played innocently. "I thought you are a good person since Sir Oliver is your acquaintance but to think you will hurt Elder Hashna just because she ignored you. You are despicable! I even thought of you as a real friend."
"One,"
*Boogsh!" Malaya threw the first dagger towards Kiana. It cut her right cheeks and pierced through the wall behind her.
Kiana felt a shiver run down her spines as she touched the side of her cheek.
"If I wanted to hurt someone, they will know that I'm the one who will hurt them. And surely they will never ever forget it for the rest of their lives."
"Two," Malaya threw the second dagger, this time Kiana tried to block it but to her horror, the dagger was not aimed at her. It was aimed towards Elder Hashna. The dagger pierced in the headboard, just an inch right through Elder Hashna's head. "If want someone death or teach a lesson, I never run away and leave them just like that without seeing that they die or they truly learned their lessons."
"Third." Malaya started walking towards Kiana, every bit of her steps was heavy. Kiana stepped back as Malaya approached her.
"When my friend especially the new one, tried to play tricks on me or just use the term 'friendship' for their own schemes, my nerves are boiling enough to teach those kinds of people a lovely lesson."
Kiana couldn't understand the feeling she was feeling right now. 'Fear.' She was very afraid of the woman in front of her. She stiffened when she reached the end table. And Malaya stopped just a meter in front of her.
"Do-don't come near me!" She grabbed the knife that was on the table and pointed it towards Malaya. Malaya just barely glanced towards the knife then back at Kiana. Then she removed her mask and put it inside her bag.
"Does anyone tell you that it is dangerous to point sharp objects like that?"
An orange light started to imbue the knife.
'A fourth-tier mage? That is very low. And it seems enhancement magic only.'
"If you move a step closer, I will stab you!" Kiana screamed.
"Then stab me and then kill me." Malaya simply stated not bothered a bit. "You are going to do that to the elder woman, am I right? Why are you still telling me this?"
Kiana gritted her teeth. "You are really the worst!" Tears started to stream down her eyes.
"Ayah-ayah. Did you finally snap out?" Malaya teased more.
"You're the worst! Milady is right! She is the only one who deserves the gentle and kind Master Oliver! Not someone like you!"
"…" Malaya this time was surprised by what she heard. 'Ah, what?' She wanted to punch some face right now but she held herself as she looked composed towards the trembling Kiana.
"My, my." Malaya lightly chuckled. "It seems I fell into a scheme of some unknown jealous woman." Using her Trinity, she thwacked the knife Kiana was holding.
"You seem got the wrong idea."
*Boogsh!* Kiana winced when she tumbled on the table as Malaya twisted and locked both her arms. "I don't care about, Oliver." Her voice was cold. "He is just one of the people, I defeated like this."
*Crack!*
"Ahhh!" The shrilling scream of Kiana resounded through the whole house when Malaya cracked her bones. "I'm not a fan of scheming and then making falling into traps. If I can end them in one strike, I will do everything for that one strike."
"Kiana, you choose the wrong opponent. Or whoever your lady is, tell her this. If that old lady died, I will break not only her arms but also her will to live."
Tears were continuously streaming down at Kiana's face when Malaya dropped her on the ground. Both her arms were bent in a strange way.
"I will take my leave now together with that man you hired to attack this old woman," Malaya said as she walked back to the window. The way where she entered the house. With that scream, she was sure that it was only a matter of time before someone checked on them.
"If you want what's best for your lady," Malaya paused before she climbed on the window. "See to it that you will not console to every deed she will do without a just reason. As a servant serving her, your duty does not only lies in following every word she speaks but guiding her to the right path as well."
Malaya smiled bitterly when she remembered Dorris and Rein. 'That was what those two always do to me.'
"That's very nice of you to give advice to my servant," Malaya was startled when she heard a chilling voice behind her. She immediately struck her Trinity but there was no one behind her.
"Not there, but here."
Malaya stiffened when she felt something prick her neck. A woman wearing a long violet dress different from the usual native dress was now beside her. She was wearing a different grey mask, unlike the rest.
Malaya stepped back as she felt her head becoming dizzy.
"I finally meet the famous Blue Missy outsider." A sinister smile escaped the unknown woman's voice.
Too confused and cautious about what was happening, Malaya ripped a talisman and disappeared instantly.. With the presence of the unknown woman, she felt that if she didn't escape right now, she would be in extreme danger.
