《The World seems Realistic but Why do I have a Leveling System? 》Chapter 113: All Is Forgiven

"Even if that was the case, you can't just shot someone with that! What would you have done if I didn't dodge it in time? Dying together here, deep in the mountain where there's no human presence around to help? If you want to kill yourself, please don't bring others with you. No matter what it is, it was still an attempted murder, you know?"
Though, understandably, she didn't believe I was her classmate, that still didn't give her the right to shot at me without any hesitation! I would die either way if that bullet pierced through me, you know? I'm still human, physically.
"If you don't want to say who you really are, then I will 'force' you to do so even when I'm still in this injured state of mine."
True to her words, Angelica immediately fires the handgun in her hand at Sheila before gritting her teeth hard while enduring the pain from the movement she had done but, Sheila easily evaded every shot she fired easily as if she could see where the bullet goes before making her move to dodge it. Angelica eventually stopped firing the handgun in hand when she had exhausted herself and before she dropped herself onto the ground, Sheila came in and put her arms around her.
While Sheila was dodging the shot, bullet after bullet, she was pondering whether she needs to teach Angelica a lesson, but looking at her injured state, Sheila decides to let it go, for now.
"Now you didn't just exhaust yourself, you have also caused the wound to become even more serious due to you moving around while still injured. Do you not care about yourself?"
"Haa...haa..Ugh! But still...now I know that you're not normal at all. I knew my feeling was right, it never came out wrong. Really, just who exactly are you?"

"I'm your classmate, Sheila, but I also got another identity, and that is a magician of a sort. Does that satisfy you now?"
When her words reached the latter part, Sheila conjured a ball of flame out of nothing and let it hovering above her palm as Angelica stare at it with a speechless expression on her face as her mouth went wide at the unbelievable sight in front of her. Though she had seen someone having done the same things, it required the help of tools as unlike the one showed by Sheila. And before they could conjure a spell properly, they required to chant before the spell could manifest into reality which takes quite a lot of time, enough for the enemy to slash them to pieces before that happen. That was her common sense, but the scene that happened in front of her shattered it to pieces as easily as glass.
"H-How did you do that?"
"It's my ability, I didn't know how the other does it but this is how I did it. (Though I wouldn't say it's my specialty, not that you need to know or anything.)"
While she was saying that, Sheila let the ball of flame flying above to the sky before it exploded like a beautiful firework in the night sky, it's evening though. Anyhow, that was how shocking the visual is to Angelica, she even feels like she didn't feel any more pain—that was just a joke, it still hurts like hell. Angelica never feels so thankful at the pain she felt from all over her body as that proves to her that everything she had experienced and seen just now, was all real.
When she comes to her sense, Sheila was staring at her with a very serious look which caused her to put a wry smile while thinking, From the look of her face, she must have wanted me to keep it a secret, after all, no one would be happy letting the others know of their secret, especially if it involved their life. People from the world same as me usually act like that, if someone told them their 'worth', they either had to come to a compromise or be killed to keep their secret sealed shut. It would be bad if their enemy gets to know about it, after all. It's like giving wing to the tiger, it would be their end.

"I didn't expect you to tell me upfront even though I was the one asking. But I promise, with my name, Angelica Ernest, on the line, to keep your identity a secret till the end of my breath, that I can do at the very least as gratitude for rescuing me from that monster."
Though Sheila didn't believe that she could keep her identity a secret any longer, it still makes her relieved when Angelica seriously makes a promise for it. At the very least, she could grow even stronger than the current her and when that time comes when her identity was exposed, she could protect herself just fine by then. Also, there's another reason why she was relieved, with a smile in response to Angelica's words, Sheila pulled out the phone out of her pocket to check the progress of the quest.
『 You have completed the Quest! 』
『 Please check your inventory for the reward! 』
Though she was upset a moment ago, it vanished the moment she saw the text on the screen of her phone which brought a smile to her face. What is there to be upset about when the reward was so dazzling? All is forgiven. Anyways, Rather than checking the reward received from the quest, Sheila brought the health potion out of the inventory as it materializing in reality before falling into her grasp. Sheila knew it was idiotic to show the health potion in front of Angelica but since it was partly her fault that the wounds getting worse due to moving around, it would be much better than calling on the ambulance since it would only cause trouble to both parties.
Whatever happens, happened. It's already too late for regret after I have shown myself back then when I rescue her from the Earth Dragon. But since I have done this, I need to bring her to my side, no matter what. While Sheila was planning how to bring the red-haired girl to her side, she couldn't help but remember the time when she was lectured by Ria as a chill runs over her whole body. Oh boy, time for another lecture when I get home, just nice. With that thought in mind, Sheila gives Angelica the red potion she had just brought out of the inventory for her to drink.

Softest Lips | on hold
𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐧-𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐭𝐨 𝐈𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝-"I just kissed the softest lips that god has ever madeAnd I am so in love with the girl to whom these lips he gave." Orianne was a lover girl, whom some considered a hopeless romantic, but she wouldn't dare let the opinions of others knock her off her pivot. She was a young woman who knew what she wanted, and to her, there was nothing wrong with that. She desired the husband, children, dates, random gifts, trips, family outings, and so on.Some would say the reason she can't keep a man is because her standards are high. Which is a ridiculous take. Yes, her standards may be "high," but that's because her father set the tone. She knows what she wants and how she's supposed to be treated, and if you're not giving her that, then you have to go. Out of the few men she has dealt with, she lets them know beforehand what she wants, and it's not her fault that they choose to lead her on under the impression that they wanted the same thing. Another reason men tend to leave her alone is because she's a woman of status, a woman of her word, and a woman about her business. She handles her own and has her own which tends to bruise a man's ego. When asked what she brings to the table, she has a solid answer. She doesn't just bring herself or her body-that's the bonus-she brings communication, trust, comprehension, stability, submission, commitment, and so on. The main question of the matter is, how will Miss. Orianne react when a 19 year old wants to sweep her off her feet and give her everything she wants and more?𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐲: me
