Chapter 315: The Witch (2)
Recently, Hong Bi-Yeon found herself alone more frequently. This was quite unusual.
She always used to gather her faction members to show off her power whenever she had the chance.
Of course, she didn't stop holding meetings altogether. She still enjoyed tea time with the noble girls from her faction two or three times a week.
It was mostly to keep an eye on what was happening within the academy and in the social circles.
"... Oh."
While sipping her tea, Hong Bi-Yeon unintentionally muttered something that surprised even herself.
'Is it bitter?'
She couldn't tell for sure. There was just an unpleasant, stinging sensation on her tongue.
"I-I'm sorry, Princess. I must have ruined the tea today..."
The girl who had prepared the tea became scared when Hong Bi-Yeon frowned.
"It's fine. Tea is supposed to be bitter."
