Leave Me Alone, Heroines!-175 Chapter 175

The two stood silent for a good one minute without moving a muscle. They both had their own thoughts and fantasies going around in their minds.

Just the thought that Acht was here and could potentially be close to here made them shudder with happiness and also nervousness.

Leislet then walked to the bed in a daze and looked at it for a moment. Then, she extended her hand and ran it over the mattress, sensing it.

Then, her hand went to the pillow as she picked it up and looked at it. Her mind and senses were telling her to get it close to her face. However, she barely resisted that strong urge.

She can't just do something like that in front of Scarlett. It was simply too embarrassing.

However, she didn't put the pillow back as she looked back at Scarlett.

"Can I ask you one question?"

Scarlett was woken up from her trance by Leislet's voice and looked at her with a confused look.

"Do you have any idea why Acht did that?" Leislet asked.

What she meant was when he stabbed her and left. She didn't feel any anger or resentment towards him because of it. In fact, if she had to say the truth, her affection for him increased when he left.

Why is that? Well, Leislet was 100% sure that Acht wouldn't do anything like that out of evil intentions or betrayal. She was sure that he did that to save them and make them get out of a deadly battle.

That's why she wanted to know why he did it.

Scarlett sighed audibly and tried to remember.

"He…didn't say anything. But, I could see a small part of his emotions at the time. It was an emotion of clear regret. He was in pain because he did what he did but hid it under a veil of coldness." She said with averted eyes.

Her heart winced just remembering that scene. She had lost all happiness in life and felt her world turn into a plain black and white, a bland mix of nothingness.

"...I see," Leislet muttered as she put the pillow back and sat down on the bed.

"What should we do now?" She asked.

Leislet thought for a moment before saying.

"We can't stay here for long. There is a hotel close by. We can stay there for a few days to see any kind of movement." f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

"Are they even here in the first place? I didn't sense one single person here."

"They must've left for some kind of purpose."

As they conversed quietly back and forth like that, a small sound from the ceiling made them look up warily and pull out their weapons.

Then, without making a single sound, they moved to each corner of the room.

Then, a mere second later, the ceiling got destroyed by a loud explosion.

Then, from the big hole landed a person. They couldn't see his face clearly since the room was very dark. But, they were able to identify him as the bartender they saw before.

He was wearing the same elegant clothes. However, this time, his demeanor was way too different.

His eyes were deathly cold and his expression was far from amicable.

"What do we have here? I never thought we had visitors at this time of the day." He said as he pulled out two weird weapons.

They were akin to two long chains but with pointy spikes filling every surface on these chains.

The two were already aware that this man was no joke at all and readied themselves to fight and get out of here as fast as possible.

"My apologies, my ladies. I can't have you roaming this place. It's a restricted area. I will have to 'deal' with you appropriately."

Then, with a small leap in the air, the chains moved crazily and flew towards the two of them.

Without any hesitation, the two vanished from their initial positions, leaving the chains to create a hole in the ground.

The chains were so strong that the mere movement they do would create heavy destruction anywhere they go.

As they moved, the two chains also moved behind them, following them like two pointy arrows.

Scarlett found an opportunity and dashed toward the bartender with her sword moving along with her, ready to slash the moment she was close enough to him.

However, as her sword was about to connect with the target, one of the chains suddenly changed directions in a moment and came back towards her.

'Fuck.' She cursed under her breath as she jumped back, leaving the chain with no target to hit.

'These chains are troublesome. It's as if they have a consciousness of their own.'

Leislet was also dealing with the other chain. In less than a minute, the room turned into a chaotic mess.

Holes of all kinds were created everywhere. There was no presence of the old tidy room that it was before.

Leislet glared at the bartender and created a huge beacon of light.

The bartender felt his eyes squint slightly.

"Now!" Leislet shouted as she looked at Scarlett. The latter was already on the move as her sword slashed down. f𝘳𝚎𝑒𝚠𝑒𝚋𝘯o𝘃eƖ.co𝓂

Fire ignited from the slash and flew towards the bartender.

Both of them thought that it was over. However, the moment the fire hit the bartender, it disappeared as if it didn't even exist before.

Both of them looked confused. The cloud of smoke then dissipated.

What appeared were ten more chains that created a huge barrier that protected him.

"What rude visitors!" He said as the chains started wiggling around him and aimed at the two women.

The problem had quadrupled and that was not good news at all.

'Fuck, we can't let this go any longer or we will catch the attention of the people outside. We have to get out of here now.' Leislet thought to herself with gritted teeth.

They didn't have much time to waste and that made them even more urgent in ending this fight.
