Chapter 264 Escarte: A Web Of Charms
"What are you doing here? Amila asked as she glared at Caroline. Amila looked quite similar to Caroline except one looked mature and the other one seemed quite immature, despite all the geniuses I have heard of her.
Amila not only took notice of Caroline but also observed me and Silver with an analyzing gaze, which made her confused a little more.
"I missed my sister. Isn't that a reason enough?" Caroline spoke with a smile on her blissful face. Her eyes were glistening as she looked at her sister, making even Amila weirded out.
"I don't know what you are-"Amila wanted to speak, but Caroline ran and hugged her tightly as she held her close. I could see some tears coming out of Caroline's eyes as I observed her holding Amila tighter and tighter.
"Wha-What?! What are you doing?!! You freak! Let me go! You creepy! Weirdo! Bastard!! Let me go!" Embarrassed by the sudden action of Caroline, Amila started cursing her as she tried to free herself from the grasp of Caroline, but alas she couldn't do it despite all the effort she was putting in.
Though a few moments later, even Amila noticed the tears coming out of Caroline's eyes as she felt them touching her. Amila's eyes winded a little as she started thinking before she slowly calmed herself down and began to hug Caroline as well.

"Hey, Amila. I am Michael. I know it sounds a little sudden, but can you skip classes for today and come with us?" I asked her politely, and she gave a little of thought before a determined face formed on her face as she asked,
"I apologize, but can you tell me the situation in brief here first? If it is really serious, I will come, but if it is not, then getting absent will create an extreme level of problems for me."
Her eyes were quite piercing as she looked at me for answers but I posed another question to her,"I would rate it a 11/10 kind of problem but before we get to that, can I ask you what exactly do you mean by 'extreme level of problems'?"
Caroline slowly stepped back as she unhugged Amila and looked at her with a slight glare as she asked,"who is troubling you?"
Amila looked away from Caroline for a couple of seconds as she spoke,"the entire school at this moment… Everyone is against me at this point. The only thing that is keeping things in control is my flawless record. They are even ready to throw me out of the school even at the slightest mistake. It's as if they are all possessed…"
There was bitterness in her voice, as if she had been trying too hard and was about to break… Caroline… was angry… beyond angry.
"Want me to help you out?" Caroline asked permission first. Because of how Amila has dealt with things on their own, she decided to respect her moral code and ask permission first.
"Are you going to use our family's influence and power? If yes them-" "No. I am going to help you with my own capabilities… and with a bit of help from these two,"Caroline spoke as she smiled at me before turning back to Amila, who observed us for a few seconds.
"Well… I don't know what you are going to do… but okay.. I will tell you the entire situation. But the max I can allow you is to guide me and find me the right path… nothing like manipulation with money and power,"Amila spoke as she sighed really deep. I could see a faint sign of relaxation on her face as she began explaining things…
And then… she told Caroline what was going on in this school from the start.
Accordingly, it started last year as a case of theft was pinned on Amila, even though she wasn't on the premises. Though confusing, most of the people said that they have seen 'Amila' stealing a bag of a certain student. Luckily, Amila had proof that she wasn't involved in this, as she had a solid alibi.
But things started going downhill from there. Many people started behaving rudely with her. If she retaliated, she was framed for bullying, while if she kept it in, more people started doing that to her.
In the beginning, things were simple, but later everything started going haywire, as she started getting calls from strangers. The librarian didn't allow her to enter the library, and one of the teachers even started molesting her. Though the worst thing or the best thing was that nobody crossed a certain line which could have made them pay the price.
Amila told us that things took a huge turn as almost everyone, including her best friend, became her enemy. She started screaming and shouting at Amila out of nowhere, tearing her notebook and everything else. I could see the tears falling down Amila's cheeks as she explained what had happened two months ago.
"It wasn't just merely anger and hatred… it was as if she despised me for my existence,"Amila explained her roommate's action.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter that, her roommate, best friend, stopped coming to her while the bullying got worse and worse. Things weren't stopping anywhere, anytime, while the only thing that made Amila continue studying here was the scholarship to her dream university.
"What seemed easy has now turned so chaotic… Sis… you believe me, right? I don't even understand what is going on here," she spoke as she took a deep sigh as she looked at Caroline with a broken smile.
Caroline was fuming beyond anything I have seen up until now… she was really angry. I wonder what she is going to do next. She then turned to me before looking at Silver as she spoke,"take us to the principal."
Silver understood that Caroline wanted her to use her power this time. And it was pretty easy to understand that there is a superpower controlling the entire thing, but the way they used it all against a single person… as if they were testing Amila. Was it because she was a genius… or was it because the perpetrator behind everything just wanted to have some fun?
"Sister. It won't work… It is not going to work…" Amila spoke as she got lost in her own thoughts and Silver spoke,"Let's go then. I think it got my interest up a little."
I turned to Silver as I smiled,"you little king?" and Silver nodded before moving ahead.
Amila was confused as she looked at Caroline. Though she wanted to stop her, looking at Caroline's expression, she understood that it was too late. Still, Amila didn't want to make things more complicated than it already was.
I moved closer to Amila as I patted her head from behind and said,"don't worry. I think we know the reason behind all the things that are going on here. Just trust in us, okay?"
Her eyes widened as she looked at me before she followed us too, this time with curiosity and hope, rather than being in shambles.
'I wonder if killing the Vampire King will gain me a bit of Exp enough to level up a couple of times,' I thought as a smile formed on my face.
