Chapter 34: I\'ll make you happy
TAP! TAP! TAP! TAP!
While walking with an anxious expression, Erica arrived at the Warriors\' cottage.
"Selina. Is Ary there?"
She asked as she arrived in front of the room \'777\'.
"Um, yeah. But..."
Selina, who was sitting outside the room, said in a slightly nervous voice.
"Hmm? What?"
Erica reacted after seeing her hesitating like this.
"H-He\'s acting strange. He was bleeding from his eyes, yet he didn\'t allow me to heal his wounds."
Selina reported in a reluctant voice.
Erica held her peace after hearing this.
She didn\'t say anything but stepped forward, but before entering the room, she requested.
"Don\'t let anyone else come inside."
"Hmm? O-Okay."
Selina replied.
She didn\'t understand why she said so, but she just agreed.
*Chirp*
The mechanical door chirped aside, and Erica stepped in.
"Hmm?!"
She reacted as she found Ary laying on the ground.
"Ary!"
She stepped toward him and knelt beside him.
She glimpsed the pearls of tears in his eyes.
Her face shaped into a sullen expression as she saw the tears.
Kashi had already explained everything to them.
"Hmm? The blood..."
Erica was left confused as she noticed that the blood from Ary\'s eyes was gone.
But his sorrowful expression didn\'t leave him.
She realised what a depressing past Ary had.
"Ary..."
She called out in a low voice, then sat on the floor and rested Ary\'s head on her lap.
Sigh!
"I had never thought that you had gone through all of this," She sighed.
Then, she showed a little smile to Ary, saying,
"No wonder...you always had strong justice for women and girls when you saved me from the senior."
She remembered the glimpse of the time when she was about to get defiled by her senior.
***
The sky darkened to a lasting twilight and the cold breeze started blowing. The area had green grass rolled to the ground, and behind it was a big school with the name painted on it, "Satakino High School."
A girl was walking behind the corner of the school.
"Senior."
The girl called out as she saw a boy in glasses standing at the corner of the building while folding his arms.
"Hmm?"
The boy reacted as his gaze shifted to his right, he saw that girl coming toward him.
"Oh, Erica. I\'m glad that you finally come."
The boy in glasses said to Erica, who had just arrived there.
When Erica arrived there, while looking at that boy, she commented,
"Oh, come on, Senior. You asked for my help, so it\'s obvious for me to help you. By the way, I had already placed the documents in your drawer at the Student Council. Your job as a President there sure is hard, right?"
"You\'re right."
The boy said as he stepped toward Erica and added,
"That\'s why I need some relaxation from it."
Then, he wrapped his right arm around Erica\'s waist, asking,
"Would you help me to get some peace, Erica?"
He asked as his hand started moving toward Erica\'s hip.
"W-What relaxation, Senior?"
Erica stammered as she felt uneasy.
Squeeze!
Abruptly, the boy squeezed her hip.
"Ah?!"
And an unconditional scream came out of Erica\'s mouth.
She pushed the boy away and stepped backward, ranting,
"Wh-What\'s wrong with you, Senior? Are you out of your mind?"
A sinister smile formed on that boy\'s face. He said,
"Listen, Erica. I\'ll help you to be the next president of the Student Council. However,"
He glanced at her with a lustful smile, commenting,
"You have to satisfy me first."
Erica\'s expression changed to disgusted, she complained,
"There\'s no way I\'m going to do this! I\'ll complain about you to Sir Benjamin. You\'re the worst."
Then, she turned around, but that boy held her left wrist and pinned her against the wall, saying,
"You\'re going to complain about me, huh? I\'ll see. How will you do it when I take a nude picture of yours?"
"Wha—?!"
Erica reacted, but before he could react any further, the boy grabbed her mouth so that she didn\'t scream and said,
"Why not we have some fun, Erica?"
"Ummmm!!!"
Erica struggled, but her strength was weak as compared to that boy.
Tap! Tap!
Suddenly, someone patted that boy\'s back.
"Hmm?!"
In an alert, that boy turned around. But,
SLAP!
Someone launched a slap on that boy\'s face with such full force that his specs fell to the ground and he was almost about to fall.
"Are you alright, Erica?"
A girl ran toward Erica from the front.
Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!
Erica was panting due to the suffocation since that boy almost suffocated her to death.
The boy looked at his front in anger to see who had slapped him.
He saw a boy with black shining hair and purple eyes. Behind that boy was an army made up of every student and teacher.
"Inochi! You!!"
The boy yelled.
The person who slapped that boy was none other than Ary.
"Do you have no shame at all, Richard? How dare you sexually harass your junior!"
In an angry voice, Ary yelled at Richard, the boy who was harassing Erica a minute ago.
"You Bastard—?!"
Richard yelled at Ary, but then he halted as he saw every teacher and student behind Ary.
".....?!"
He was left flabbergasted after glimpsing this.
"You...you had planned all this, don\'t you?"
Richard asked while glaring at Ary. He thought that it was all Ary\'s plan.
"It wasn\'t my intention to use that girl as bait for you. Yet I know your lecherous desire for girls. I and Michael already gathered the whole staff when she was coming here."
Ary replied, still furious.
"That\'s my bro for ya!"
Behind Ary, Michael jumped with a smile.
"Grrr!!!"
In anger, Richard gritted his teeth. His reputation as an honorable President of the student council had already been turned to dust.
He sneakily put his right hand in his pocket and asked,
"Do you think that you\'ll just sue me like this and you won?"
"Hmm?"
Ary reacted as if he didn\'t understand what he meant by that.
In an instant, Richard took out a knife from his pocket, turned around, and darted at Erica, yelling,
"This all happened because of you, Bitch!!"
"Huh?!"
The girl beside Erica and Erica herself reacted in shock.
STAB!
"Wha—?!"
"Huh...?"
Richard and the girls were left flabbergasted as someone grabbed the knife from his right palm.
"You..."
Richard was left startled as he noticed Ary grabbed the knife by his right palm and blood started flowing out of it.
"Ary?!"
The girl and other students reacted in shock.
"Bro?!"
Michael stepped forward.
"Do you think of girls as a plaything, huh? They have their respect and you should have to respect them instead of harassing them, you perverted bastard!"
Ary bellowed at Richard.
Erica widened her eyes after hearing Ary\'s testimony.
SLAP!
Sir Benjamin, who had watched even this drama slapped Richard, saying,
"Richard Millson. From this day forth, you are dismissed from both school and your position as the council president."
"S-Sir, it\'s not what you think—"
"Shut up!"
Sir Benjamin yelled at Richard while he was making an excuse and added,
"Call your parents right now."
"No, sir. Please don\'t do this to me. My father would kill me if he found out."
Richard begged.
But by ignoring his words, Sir Benjamin turned around, saying,
"I don\'t care."
Then, he started walking away, saying,
"Do as I said or else I will call them myself!"
"Bro, are you okay?"
"Ary, you okay, man?"
"Look, he is bleeding."
"Let\'s go to the nurse\'s office."
Every student gathered around Ary to support him.
"Hehe. I\'m fine, guys."
Ary said with a fake laugh.
He was experiencing pain, but he didn\'t show it to others.
Then, his eyes shifted to Erica, who was looking at Ary with a startling expression.
He stepped toward her, asking,
"Are you okay, miss?"
"Ah! Y-Yeah, I\'m good. Thanks for saving me."
Erica replied in an apprehensive voice.
Ary smiled at her, saying,
"My pleasure."
Then, he turned around, and along with other students, walked away to the nurse\'s office.
"Erica, let\'s go."
The girl, who was standing beside Erica, said.
"Ah, yeah."
Erica answered back, then they started walking away.
Erica glanced at her front, at Ary, who was walking away, and wondered,
\'Is he the topper of our school, Ary Inochi?\'
Then, a smile formed on her face, and she pondered,
\'I owe him one.\'
And after this incident, Erica and Ary started talking with each other since they were in the same class. They usually had lunch together.
Also, Ary supported her to become the next student council president, and since Ary supported her, other students also supported her, and because of that, she became the President of the Student Council at Satakino High School.
But since Erica had so much work to do, her talk with Ary became less and less, and in the end, it ended.
***
Erica smiled as she remembered that incident.
She leaned closer to Ary, saying,
"You protected me that time. I think it\'s time to return the favor, right?"
She kissed Ary on his lips.
Then, while lifting her lips from Ary\'s, she said,
"Though getting married to you is enough of a favor. But as a wife, I must make my husband happy, right?"
Then, she closed her eyes and rested her back on the wall behind her, and mumbled,
"I\'ll try my best to make everything normal again, Ary. Especially you. I will make you delighted."
Since she was tired after that training, she fell asleep.
