Waking up in the morning, Kael realized that Evelyn was not at ho.
In the kitchen, the cooking utensils, dishes, food, etc. were still unused. Proof that she had not eaten breakfast.
’...She’s gone to school already?’
He yawned, then rolled up his sleeves to make her a delicious sandwich.
Usually, he was very focused when cooking, but today, for so reason, his mind was on sothing else.
Kael wanted to know about Evelyn’s plans, he wanted to know what she would do.
He wanted to help her.
Kael wanted to share a little of her burden if possible.
’Hmm...’
To be honest, the reason he wanted to do this was partly because of the mission, and mostly because... he wanted to.
It was strange.
Lately, Kael had noticed so changes, but he had no idea why.
His heart would beat a little faster when he was near the villainess.
Whenever those beautiful, charming ruby eyes were fixed on Kael, he would freeze completely, becoming a statue.
And just her complinting him, or giving him a small smile, was enough to make him happy for the whole day.
Lost in thought. By the ti he snapped back to reality, the sandwich had long since been completed.
Slap!
He slapped himself hard.
Lately, things like that had been making him lose his mind more than usual, and if it happened more often, the progress of the mission would be delayed.
’I have to calm down.’
Just like that, Kael wrapped up the sandwich, and headed straight to class.

— Lately, I’ve been having strange feelings.
— Surprisingly, it’s not a negative feeling.
— But a positive feeling.
— I don’t know why I think that way either.
While the other students were playing around with each other, making a lot of noise, Evelyn just sat in the corner of the class.
Quietly flipping through the pages of the book, preparing for today’s lesson.
But today, it was really hard for her to morize the knowledge in the book.
There was sothing that kept lingering in her mind, unable to leave.
It was like 502 glue.
— My world originally had only one color.
— The black of despair.
— But every day with that person, I experienced different colors.
— Colors I’ve never experienced before.
— No one has ever made feel like this.
— Is this...
— Love?
Evelyn paused, not turning the pages anymore.
Her face was still the sa, cold, not blushing like a young girl her age should.
— No.
— Love?
— That’s nonsense.
She had denied it.
"You’re truly here, Evelyn."
A familiar voice rang out in her ears.
It sounded pleasant, different from the voices of the others.
It made her feel more secure.
The villainess didn’t even need to turn around to realize it was Kael.
"You’re also here?"
She asked simply, her eyes never leaving the book she was reading.
"Yes."
Kael yawned. He hadn’t gotten enough sleep last night.
Then, he sat down next to her, placing the sandwich he had put so much effort into on her desk.
"This is?"
Evelyn stopped what she was doing, turning her attention to the wrapped item not far from her.
"Your breakfast. It’s a sandwich. You didn’t eat anything this morning, right?"
— It’s always like this.
— That person always paid attention to .
— It might be a normal thing.
— But for soone like , it was really...
"Thank you."
She gave a small smile, but unfortunately he couldn’t see it.
Kael collapsed onto the desk, dreamily admiring Evelyn’s beauty, not caring if she wanted it or not.
After all, this was what he did every day when he went to class.
’Hehe’
The morning sunlight from outside the window shone directly onto the spot where Evelyn was sitting, revealing her beauty even more than usual.
She was like a protagonist, soone blessed by everything.
But it was a pity that such a person had a tragic end in the ga.
’Hmm?’
He raised his eyebrows slightly.
Kael didn’t know if it was because of his care, but recently, Evelyn had looked a little less skinny.
Her skin was rosy.
The lines on her face beca sharper.
Making her beauty go from 10 points to 11 points.
Protruded where it needed to.
Constricted where it didn’t.
’Heaven...’
Kael closed his eyes, and entered the land of dreams.
***
In the sa classroom, but in a different situation.
Unlike Kael and Evelyn, who were sharing a peaceful morning, Sarah’s group of bullies were not having the sa ti.
Currently, they were huddled together, discussing in the quietest of voices.
It was like a group of criminals planning their next cri.
Sweat was dripping down their foreheads.
"Hey, has anyone gotten any information about that commoner William? That bastard usually reports to every ti he finishes his mission, but I still haven’t received anything as of this morning."
Sarah began.
"No, I didn’t receive anything."
" neither."
"Didn’t you say that William was only reported to you?"
One of Sarah’s loyal dogs suddenly chid in:
"Could it be that William was discovered? By that bitch Evelyn, or so professor?"
"Nonsense, if he had been discovered by the professor, things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly."
"Then there’s a high chance that William was discovered by that bitch. But what could she do to him? Kill him?"
"Kill him? Are you kidding? We’re in the academy. And murder is illegal."
Sarah sighed.
"Whatever happens to William, it’s none of my business. What I care about is that Artifact."
Having said this, all of her loyal dogs began to feel panic and anxiety.
They all knew that if their involvent in using an Artifact was discovered, their fate would be dire.
"Leader, what should we do?"
"That’s right, leader. I don’t want to run into any problems."
"I’m scared..."
’Tsk. Why do I have such cowards as my servants?’
Sarah thought to herself.
Then, she glanced at Evelyn, who was still reading as if nothing had happened.
Her hatred for the villainess had grown even deeper.
If looks could kill, she would have died a billion tis over.
’Always. Do you have to make unhappy to satisfy you, Evelyn?’ She gritted her teeth.
Then, Sarah looked straight at her servant, and opened her mouth:
"Tonight, we’ll do the sa as always. Torture Evelyn, and force her to return that Artifact to us."
At that mont, the hunters had officially beco the hunted.
