《The Games That Bind Us》Chapter 6 - Mercy... please?
Advertisement
I wonder what that Headmaster did when I was unconscious... I am waking up? finally, it feels strange, almost like... OH GREAT HEAVENLY JESUS HE WOULDN'T... just as a joke that is going to far.
I wake to see Kate's embarrassed face, then almost instantly I detect so much... Bloodlust? did I loose the skill? nope it is still there, I can detect it from her but only slightly... so?
"w.....ww....what a..aare you doing.. there?" she asks with a face red and almost crying??? I AM SO SORRY
"It wasn't me, I swear" I said hoping to prolong my life as long as possible, maybe 5 minuets?
"G....G... GET OUT!" she screamed to this I used my strongest skills to GTFO before I make things worse, This will take a while to explain, as soon as I left the room and shut the door I then felt so much bloodlust... ok seriously no bloodlust? is she unable to get angry in the morning? Yea that has to be it.
while getting ready for the Academy starting in 1 hour I make some breakfast, we all wake up at 6 in the morning and continue till 3 in the afternoon, before and after it spent how we want. And I like cooking, I had a cooking skill since before the story started but it was passive,
[Cooking: makes all meals taste better and reduces cooking time and difficulty]
And with this, I become a god of cooking. maybe with this Kate will forgive me.... scratch that, maybe with this I can buy my self some extra time alive and explain what happened. If she believes me?
Oh look at that I started cooking without even realising it, my ability is definitely more the powerful... not starting that mental debate again.

I walk over to the table located next to our rooms kitchen then place the meal down, the most tasty Full English Breakfast ever... yea I am not that creative but it tastes better thanks to my cooking skill.
"Kate, I made breakfast" I said through the door, no response. not good. that is not good at all.
I walk over to the table and eat. looking around the room, it is simple in design, there is a gaming area to the back left of the room, a cooking area to the top left, a eating / general studying table area in the top right area, and the remaining area was... still destroyed from when I beat Kate 39 times in a row, should have held back a bit, it was the book shelf and reading area. It will be replaced by tomorrow... Maybe?
Kate emerges from her room in her uniform and with super fast speed the door is shut and she had sat down. she is still red in the face and looking down however she started eating.
"Don't think with a little food you will g... get out of the beating of your life" she said shivering and stuttering. shaking? wow she must be furious, but the detect bloodlust isn't activating? maybe... she is angry at the headmaster and knowns it was him? I wonder.... wait I am still in for the beating of my life? at least it isn't death. also something to note, when I woke up I had a burning status effect along with a burning pain all over, I guess her fire power lets loose when she sleeps.
we both finish up our food in a silence. I would try to explain what happened but I'm already in for the beating of my life, may as well except it and not make it any worse. as we all know, If I open my mouth again, I will get a worse punishment and I will regret it... that is how it works... and we all know it.

"S..so, was it my father who did that?" Kate asked while pointing back at her room. she is smart, that or she is used to her father doing evil things. well just by looking at her still red face I know she must not be used to it, however she is so embarrassed that she won't stop looking at me then looking away, what? when my vision was blurry from waking up was she naked or something else embarrassing and my vision was to blurry to see? oh wait need to reply.
"Yes, how did you know?" I asked trying to see what made her think that.
"because when you said you did not need to sleep I felt you were telling the truth even with all my self imposed doubt. something about the way you said it made me believe you a bit? And I did not go straight to sleep and heard father whack you and drop you next to me..." instantly her red face went glowing red, like it was on fire. wait... no sorry it is on fire, she was either seriously embarrassed or very angry... no detect bloodlust? hmm...
"so am I still getting the beating of my life?" I asked with a slight glimpse of hope.
"n... not a chance" Kate said while looking away.
"So how is the happy couple, lovers quarrel already?" the Headmaster said while looking in through the window to the room
"NO!!!" Kate roared so loud that the Headmaster lost his footing and fell down to the bottom floor, we wait a bit before Kate flicked me so hard I joined the headmaster at the bottom of the building with a face that was still as red as a strawberry. that was a lot of floors, 32-33. I never counted. I got up cleaned my self up then walked off to lesson
first we have free period in the library then we have Sir Andrew, wonder what we have with him, after that... I forgot, that will be a problem... oh well, Ill study more on the Dragon Slayer powers I got last time, learn more about their history and variations to see what I could use... I feel like I missed something VERY important, I guess it can wait till late to think about..
funny, even from falling that far, didn't feel much and the flick from Kate pushed more then it hurt. she must have been holding back... Scary...
