《A Tale of an Amalgam》Chapter 36: Memory Surge

'Your Highness, her name is Selestine Villin, 14 years old. Her parents' name are Viche Villin and Leon Villin, she also has a brother named Jansen. According to their neighbors, she suddenly appeared around six years ago...' Deux's report suddenly came to Crown Prince Maxentius' mind.

"You're Selestine Villin, aren't you?" He curiously asked as he narrowed his sharp amethyst eyes on the kneeling commoner girl.

"Y-Yes..! Please spare me..! I swear not to get in your ways, just please let me go here in peace..!" Her teardrops were like diamonds hanging down on her cheeks.

"Hmmm..." He turned to Hestia. "Fuku Kaichou, what should we do with her??"

"Let's just let her go Kaichou, she hasn't done anything wrong..." She replied as she pondered on how to get closer to the so-called Heroine of the otome game.

'It's just like in the game, I also didn't see any suspicious actions coming from her... is she really the same Heroine I know..?'

"Fuku Kaichou, you may go now... Selestine Villin-san, I'll bring you to your room..." The person in question reluctantly nodded and followed the obsidian-haired Student Council President.

The Vice President 'did' leave, but her curiosity got the best of her and she spied on the potential couple all the way to their destination.

"Excuse me, I brought a lost student here." Maxentius said with a smile to the teacher, which was normally called Valkyane-sensei, and all the female students squealed.

*kyaaaahhhh

Hestia just sighed seeing her kohaīs fangirling about the Crown Prince, being aware of his true personality that's even comparable to demons.

'What do they see in him? If I hadn't played the game, I would've joined their flock! I would've also bullied Selestine just for catching 'my' fiancé's attention. I would've plunged myself into ruin myself!'

She quietly left before the obsidian-haired, amethyst-eyed guy notices her presence.

"Thanks for bringing my new student hear, Maxentius-san!" The handsome Valkyane-sensei, with aqua hair and eyes, also smiled.

"It is my honor."

"Tha-Thanks for bringing me here etto... Kaichou..!" She forced out a smile and hid behind Valkyane-sensei.

"Selestine-san, are you okay?" The male teacher asked worriedly.

"I think she's suffering from culture shock, aren't I right?" Selestine quickly agreed by nodding her head vigorously.

'He's so scary, he has a dark aura despite wearing his smile. Will hell open up from below me next?'

'Why is she so scared of His Imperial Highness? Was she threatened before she got in? I must look into this matter, but before that--'

"Everyone, meet Selestine Villin, she has Light magic." The students were in uproar.

"Sensei, did you just say 'she has Light magic'? Isn't she a commoner? Why does a lowborn peasant like her have such a holy power?" A girl with bobcut hazelnut hair and charcoal eyes said mockingly that she quickly shrunk.

"Now, now, Briana-san, is that how you should welcome your new classmate? Why don't you be kind to her, hm?"

"Why should we, Valkyane-sensei? She's just a filthy mudblood!" Another girl said.

"Silence!"

"Why would we stoop so low and treat her nicely? If she's born a noble, that's a different story!!"

"That's enough!!"

"She is just a lowly peasant girl, even my maid has higher status than her!! Should I hire her as my maid instead?"

*snickers

*laughs

"Oh, is this bullying I see~?" Maxentius stepped in with gritted teeth and clenched fists.

'Why did I feel so infuriated when they started insulting her? This is normal, even illegitimate children become slaves for the high-ranking noble children. Shouldn't I turn a blind eye to this injustice?'

"Maxentius-sama..!"

"Kaichou..!!"

"Maxentius-senpai..!" Many girls called many of his names in surprise. They didn't expect the cold Student Council President and the next sun of the Coelacanthian empire to interrupt their fun.

*gulp

"Valkyane-sensei, please put all those who verbally insulted Selestine Villin-san in detention." He carressed Selestine's pale and smooth white jade-like skin.

"Hngg..." She groaned.

"Be well without me, Sese-chan..." She flinched and undescribable emotions filled her head making her nauseous. "Are you okay?!"

She felt sadness, remorse, regret, frustration, longing. She began to hyperventilate and she struggled to take some deep breaths.

*gasps

*huff 5x

A memory crossed her mind. It was about herself holding a hand of a certain obsidian-haired boy whom she can't recognize the face. She could see that they were happy but negativities ruined the moment replacing it with a scene of her losing her hold in his hand.

She held her head like it was breaking by the sudden surge of emotions and memories combined.

'Sese-chan, you're mine...'

'I'm afraid that if I look away for just a second, it might find its way to another...'

'So you're the one who terrified my Sese-chan? Now what should I do to you who touched something of mine?'

'You willl not, under any circumstances, leave me just like that. You've captured my heart, so you have to take responsibility.'

'You won't see me again if we let him have his way. You still want to be with me, right?'

'Sese-chan, didn't you promise me that you'll be mine forever?'

'Whose memories are these?! I didn't experience any of this but I still feel nostalgic.' Selestine thought.

"Selestine Villin-san, are you okay?" Valkyane-sensei inquired.

'What the hell is happening to her? Was she psychologically hurt by their words?!'

'Based on her reaction, she really is--'

"Sese-chan, is that really you?!!"

"Wh-Who?!!"

"You're Sese-chan, aren't you?"

"Wha-Whatever do you mean, Kai-Kaichou?"

'Why is Kaichou calling her by her petname?'

'Is there something going on between them without our awareness?'

'But Kaichou rarely goes outside the Student Council Office..?'

"Yar're, yar're, now what is this..? Why are you pretending to be someone you're not?"

"Wha-What are you talking about?! And who is this Sese-chan?!"

'Oh my, how disrespectful?!'

'She dared calling Seraphine-hime like that?'

'She really knows no shame!!'

A certain girl with crimson hair in drill curls and sharp amethyst eyes suddenly went in front of Selestine and placed her arms sidewards as if defending the brunette.

"Stop this, everyone!" Her clear gaze stunned everyone.
