Chapter 69: The Disciplinary Office Interrogation
"I want you to be as honest with me as possible this time," said the man sitting before us. Right now we were in the disciplinary office, yes...
We.
And by ’we’ I mean myself and this psycho... Kelly.
It’s been two days since the incident at Paragon Hall. Right now the authorities were trying to get to the root of the situation, so we were brought here directly from the infirmary. I feel jittery around her given the power she showcased on that bloody day—power that led to an entity I had likened to a god... disappearing just like that. I still can’t feel its presence to this moment.
Yes.
The system remained with me, but... that was it. Everything else was gone. I have a feeling this could have affected the slave bind I had with both Vivian and Anna. I still see the tattoo, but I don’t feel that deep connection any longer.
This is truly becoming a major problem.
Perhaps it’s because all my emotions were returned to me. I mean, I still don’t know what emotions were taken in exchange for the contracts, but I really don’t feel like anything is missing, so there’s a chance they were all returned to me? Right.
"Recount what happened, Student Kelly," the man looked at Kelly and asked. She had once again been giving me those creepy glances. It wasn’t as obvious and unsettling as before, but it was still annoying. What bothers me more is knowing I’m powerless against her. That’s what makes this whole situation even more irritating. The only solution I keep arriving at is elimination, but given the power she showed me that day... I doubt I can manage that. An indirect method might be the only answer—perhaps I could poison her.
"Classes ended and we were given instructions to head for Paragon Hall. The team leader of my group told us to wait a bit and fetch our newest addition," she said, and it was pretty obvious I was the one she was referring to.
