Death Mage with an SS-Rank Talent-Chapter 144

Two Days before the tournament...

"Damn it, how can I forget to lock the door. I locked the door that led to my room and forgot about the one that led to Aaron’s. Adding to the insult, I told him not to forget about locking the doors, but here I am, who was the one that forgot to lock the doors properly".

"Now, because of that, he saw me full naked. How can I show my face to other people now?" Lyanna cried a little.

She was worried that Aaron might slip up about this to his friends, but she knew that he was only friendly with Erika in the group. The others were just acquaintances. So, the chances of that happening are very low.

No boy would speak about seeing a girl naked to another girl. They might boast about themselves to other boys but not to girls about matters like these.

"I am safe on that account. Before we return to the academy, I need to speak with Aaron about this, but if I make a big thing out of this, then it may influence his performance in the tournament", Lyanna couldn’t think of a way to come out of this predicament.

She had kissed him on the lips the previous evening, but he couldn’t tell that to anyone, as no one would believe his words, but this is something others might believe.

The vice-headmistress, who was known for strictness, kissed a student. No one would believe it, but accidentally walking in on the naked vice-headmistress, that fact is believable, as the ones who came along with these two knew that they stayed in the same suite.

Though there are two rooms, the washroom is single and is attached to both rooms. So, even if a wisp of that goes out, then that would be it for her.

When Lyanna spoke to Sana, her girlfriend, she was open about it because she knew that Sana was cheating on her. It was something she found out just before leaving for the tournament.

It was also the reason why she kissed Aaron, not just because she wanted to sleep with a student. She was angry and did something that she shouldn’t have done. It is also why she told about what happened to her girlfriend, to make sure that the information she got was right.

After talking to Sana, Lyanna was sure that Sana was cheating on her.

No girlfriend would be so calm after hearing about what happened, but Sana was calm and even encouraged her to fuck her student.

Who in a relationship would say that?

Only the ones who are feeling guilty about something, something like cheating.

The information regarding Sana’s affair was known through a reliable source, but when she kissed Aaron and teased him a bit, she felt a little bad about that. A doubt appeared about the information that she had come to know.

So, she told everything that happened to Sana, and based on how Sana reacted, she was 100% sure about the matter. The entire night, her mind was clouded with that information. Even when she woke up, she did things half-minded. It was why she locked the door that led to her room, rather than the one that led to Aaron’s room.

"I need to speak with him as soon as possible", Lyanna thought and looked for Aaron, but he had already left for breakfast.

Since he was not there, she knew that she wouldn’t get a chance to speak with him, but when she did, she wanted to prepare for a talk with him, regarding everything that happened, not just about the morning incident, but also about the previous night.

Later that day...

Aaron has returned to his room after having a free lunch, experiencing the fiasco with a bunch of arrogant young masters. Luckily, that didn’t escalate to a point where adults are involved and to the point where either you die or I die.

That was a good thing, but fearing such an incident might happen again, the group returned to the hotel. Though they were not afraid, in less than two days, they had to participate in the tournament, and if anything happened to them, that would cause losses to the academy.

That would be a bad thing as they would lose a lot of resources if they couldn’t participate or if they performed badly for any reason. So, they decided to return to the hotel.

When Aaron returned to his room, he saw the Vice-Headmistress lying on the couch with a bottle in her hand. It was not fruit juice, but some alcoholic beverage.

Remembering what happened in the morning, Aaron quickly looked down and started to walk towards his room.

"Stop", Lyanna said, which made Aaron stop in fear.

He was afraid that she might do something after what happened in the morning. Though he was not at fault, the other party is stronger than him and if she wanted to do something, there is nothing he could do about that.

"Come, sit", she pointed to the seat beside her, which he followed as he had no other choice.

"Whatever happens, happens", Aaron thought, and was prepared for the punishment that he would receive.

---

It was two hours later that he was able to return to his room. Only then was he finally able to breathe in relief.

"I never thought that the strict vice-headmistress had such a story. No wonder she acted like that the previous day, and why she forgot to lock the door this morning", Aaron muttered in a bit of disbelief.

Yes, Lyanna, while drunk, told him everything regarding his girlfriend and the incidents that happened later on. This was not her original plan. She prepared well to speak about these incidents, and not about her girlfriend.

She didn’t think that Aaron would return by noon, when she was drunk and wallowing in sadness. In the drunken state, she told him everything, and that was a good thing for Aaron.

He was afraid that he was in danger, but he understood that he wasn’t, which lessened his stress a little bit.
