464 7.88 – Dai An’s Way Of Life – War Of The Wickeds

Meanwhile…

‘Do you have to train even during a shopping spree? I can’t concentrate.’

‘~It’s not a training. It’s my way of living.’

Bing Shi missed her procrastination days. Even though she would have nothing done, at least she could indulge in the guilty pleasure of doing the things she liked. Now, her head was filled with nothing but ‘personal empowerment’ more than before. It was not about getting stronger, it was about being afraid of not doing things a certain way.

Dai An twirled happily around the city in a new dress. She had just come out of the store and couldn’t believe how good it looked on Silvia. She was wearing a bright dress with intricate embroidery on the bodice and a long flowing skirt. As she spun around, the skirt of her dress flared out around her, giving her a sense of joy.

It would have been such a lovely scene if not for the army of stressed students that tried to prevent her from getting wet in varied ways. All of them were testing out the Robbinson equipment, sending Julliet their honest opinion.

The students without abilities spread out their hands to make human barriers before bigger poodles so Silvia could avoid them while others created a canopy with their umbrellas above her head. Scanning her every move, they had to be extra careful with their steps as not to pump into Silvia as she jumped around randomly.

“The fit is not good,” Liam was sure to be the first critique, “Riley’s communicator can adjust its form to the wearer’s ear.” The first thing he noticed was the fit, “It’s too tight.” It was pressing against his ear and causing discomfort.

The others chimed in with their own issues. The sound quality was poor, and the microphone was too sensitive. “When I got a hold of some of Riley’s knockoffs, they were all bulky and unattractive compared to the original.” The other testers murmured in agreement, nodding their heads. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

.....

“...” Julliet took mental notes in silence. No wonder her grandpa decided to do such underhanded methods. He had no chance to overcome Riley fair and square.

“Watch out! Dammit!” Liam cursed, noticing how a splash of rain soaked into Silvia’s dress. As a guy with a bodyguard position, he had to save his energy for watching the surroundings against potential threats.

The merry-go atmosphere suddenly tensed when Silvia halted at her steps. They took a deep breath as if trying to suppress the fear of the oncoming storm.

Liam and Julliet were ‘safeguarding’ the thing they needed — a dry dress for Silvia. They all knew what was coming, yet no one spoke a word. As a group, they could steal dresses from betas and deltas with some mind games and combined strength… but from an Alpha?! No way! They would rather jump around before the paparazzi!

Without warning, Dai An turned around. Her face was serious and her eyes held a certain intensity that seemed to penetrate the souls of those gathered around her, “The first half will help me out with Liam. The rest will go after Juliet.”

The air was still, only broken by the sound of her boots hitting the ground as she marched forward. Her steps were steady, her arms were ready, and as she approached Liam, everyone followed her with a loud war cry, “He is a fire user! Use the rain to your advantage!”

Some deltas noticed this was their chance and did not hesitate to surround Julliet, “Don’t let her run away!” They were no longer protected by the school rules and thought for a second about how Liam and Julliet could kill them with a flick of a finger. But the thought of this all being just a game between friends gave them the confidence to do unthinkable things, “Catch her!”

Dai An came to a stop in front of Liam and raised her cane, pointing it directly at his heart. The cold steel of the blade glinted in the light of the street lamps, and his breath got caught in his throat. He knew that she meant to do him harm and that she had the power to do so.

But just as he felt his knees go weak, he saw a flash of silver in the corner of his eye. Silvia was there, standing behind him.

“AHHHHHH!!!” He screamed and jumped back, his voice echoing across the night sky, “What the hell are you doing?!” He was so startled that he forgot to breathe, ‘No! Stop! Don’t let her come near me!’ his sanity screamed. He tried to turn around but Silvia moved swiftly and grabbed him by the shoulder, forcing him to look at her.

“That’s right.” Silvia’s voice was clear and measured, “You must learn to trust your instincts.” Before he could react, she pulled him closer, “Otherwise, you won’t be able to defeat any of our enemies.” She looked him straight in the eye with her head cocked to one side, her mouth curved upwards slightly.

Liam, who had been gathering flames around him, was now drenched and unable to use his powers fully. He closed his eyes, hoping to hear nothing. He was sure that if he heard Silvia’s voice, he’d lose control – his mind would go blank and he would give up.

Her fingers were gentle and warm, her grip firm yet delicate. Suddenly, Liam felt something wet touch his lips and he tasted salty water, “My blood...?” His eyes opened wide when he felt the tip of her cane pressing against his forehead.

“Your reaction speed needs some honing,” saying something what her husband would, Bing Shi snatched the bag of clothes from Liam’s shoulder bag and thrust it at Berta, “Keep the new view in the mirror as a reminder to fasten it up.”

Berta caught the bag easily, holding it close to her chest. From afar it looked like Silvia was using her seduction skills to make Liam give up the ‘treasury’. It was not their first time seeing Silvia doing it, but it was never as fast and lethal as this. Liam acted in such an exaggerated way that it was unbelievable.
