Even Alya, who was totally focused on her own work, could not help but take a glance at Evan as he looked at Vlad with a smile.
"What can I say? No matter how much you corner a rabbit, it will still bare its fangs when it feels that its life is in danger. However..."
Alya looked at him deeply again before continuing her game.
"No matter how that little rabbit struggles, it will only make the big bad wolf even angrier. Now, he will have to handle its wrath."
The moment Alya thought of this, she returned her focus to her game.
At the same time, Vlad seemed to have transformed into something even worse.
"I cannot believe that you still have this much resolve even after all of that," Vlad said, looking at him coldly.
"Bahhh! You are just lucky that you have a powerful background and money. If you did not have those things, do you really think you could beat me in a one on one fight? Oh wait, you cannot even beat me in a simple question and answer back in class, much less in a fight. You just have to rely on your background and your dogs," Evan said with a look that seemed to say Vlad was a complete idiot.
Vlad did not say anything as he looked at this vermin, who was still barking back even after everything that had happened.
With a sudden flash of his arm, he grabbed Evan’s chin and pulled it close to his face.
This made Evan grunt as he gritted his teeth. Seeing Vlad’s face up close, Evan snickered and taunted him again.
"Do not tell me Young Master Vlad has a weird hobby. If you wanted a kiss, you could have just said so."
Hearing that Evan still had the gall to tease Vlad even in this situation, the three of them looked at Evan as if he were a complete madman.
On the other hand, Vlad’s eyes darkened even further.
The grip on Evan’s chin tightened, but instead of fear, Evan only showed a wider grin, as if the pain had become fuel for his mouth.
"What? Did I hit a nerve?" Evan said, his voice rough but mocking.
"Not only you have a weird fetish, you must also realize that without your family name, you are just a spoiled dog with an expensive collar?"
The atmosphere froze, Even Alya’s fingers paused on her phone for half a second, but she saw that Evan was not finished.
"Look at you. Acting like a king because your family gave you a throne. But the moment someone asks you to stand on your own feet, you start shaking like a baby who lost his pacifier, you remember it a year ago right?"
Being reminded by this scene during a school activity where he was struggling at something, he really did used his father’s connection to passed at that time.
And being called out like this, his eyes felt like it was spitting fire.
"Do you really want to die?"
"Die?" Evan snorted.
"From you? Please. The only thing you can kill is the mood when you enter a room."
The three people watching felt their scalps go numb, this guy had truly lost his fear.
Tilting his head slightly, even while Vlad was still holding his chin he looked at him with a mocking look.
"You keep calling me poor, but at least I own my mouth. You, on the other hand, even your insults sound like they were bought by your father. Did your family pay someone to teach you how to act scary too? Because they should ask for a refund."
Vlad’s face became colder and Evan felt good as every resentment in his heart was being poured, while chuckling, his eyes is bright with madness.
"Oh yeah, I am not done yet," Evan said and his eyes moved across Vlad’s face, but before he can continue something happened.
One of Vlad’s followers almost coughed, but he forcefully held it in.
Evan of course noticed this as he become even more bolder.
"Oh, don’t hold it in, even your people know I’m right. They follow you because your wallet is fat, not because your brain is useful. If your money disappeared tomorrow, even your shadow would resign."
Vlad’s eyes flashed with killing intent. But Evan only leaned closer, as if he was speaking to a friend.
"You know what your biggest talent is? Standing there and making everyone else feel smarter. Every time you open your mouth, the whole class gets free confidence. It was all thanks to you why I’m confident in answering that question a year ago btw,"
Vlad’s being shamed again and again his breathing became heavier.
The veins on his hand started to show and Evan’s grin grew wider.
"Come on, young master Vlad go ahead and hit me. That’s the only subject where you might finally pass. Because in class, in arguments, in common sense, and in being a decent human being, you are failing so badly even the school would have to create a new grade just for you."
Hearing him still continuing with his words, no one dared to breathe too loudly.
Evan’s face was bruised, his body was aching, and yet his mouth showed no mercy.
He stared straight into Vlad’s eyes and delivered the final blow.
"Honestly, I feel bad for your family. They gave you money, power, status, and protection, but somehow forgot to give you a personality. If disappointment had a family portrait, you would be standing right in the center."
Vlad’s expression finally cracked, for the first time, the cold mask on his face twisted into something ugly.
But then, in that quiet place, a small chuckle could be heard. Even though it was very low, the chuckle clearly came from Alya.
However, she quickly covered her mouth to stopped herself, and to hide it, she coughed lightly as she continued playing her game on her phone.
Evan looked at Alya with confusion in his eyes, he wondered if his teasing was really that funny to move this cold and aloof girl.
On the other side, Vlad who had heard that laugh, felt as if it had struck directly at his pride and superiority.
"You know, I was supposed to leave you a way out. But if you are going to be like this, then I have no choice but to follow your words. This time, I will get rid of you once and for all," Vlad muttered coldly.
Before he even stood up, he kept slapping Evan’s cheeks again and again until they turned from red to a pale purple color.
Evan did not say anything as he only gritted his teeth and grunted in pain.
Since he was going to be disabled anyway, he thought it was still better than being dead. But if he became disabled, his family would have to suffer along with him.
So maybe it was better to die while cursing this asshole until the very end.
But then, something suddenly struck his heart and mind.
Why was this world so lawless?
Was there not supposed to be law?
Why was there no justice at all?
Why could people like him be bullied, humiliated, and discarded at any time by powerful people like this?
"Quiet now, are we? Even if you beg now, there is nothing you can do."
With that, Vlad kicked him in the stomach yet again. This time, he did it so strongly that a few of Evan’s ribs broke from the impact.
"NGH!!!"
Evan quickly curled up, clutching his body tightly as saliva fell from his mouth.
"Hold him for me," Vlad called out.
One of the boys which is Paolo that is behind Vlad, moved and hold Evan by pulling his arm forcefully, to stand up.
His body that was already weak from constant bullying and malnourishment.
Since he could not eat much during lunch break, his face had become pale and sickly that even standing was really hard.
"Vlad, you do know murder is not something that can be casually said and done right?" Alya said casually as she continued playing on her phone.
"Alya, do not tell me you have grown to like this trash?" Norman said teasingly.
"Pwee~ Do not say such disgusting things, Norman. Do not forget, this is an examination day, many parents are looking forward to the results and if this spreads, it will create a small problem," Alya said while taking a black lollipop from her pocket and tasting it.
"Do not worry, with our status as young masters setting up a simple suicide death is easy as eating a cake," Norman continued.
"So big brother, what are you going to do with him now?" Paolo said enthusiastically.
Being called out, Vlad the guy with silver earrings and cool black hair, first cracked his hands, then looked down at Evan and instructed Paolo.
"Help him stand up now, since he is very arrogant a while ago then I will let him feel this young master’s wrath," Vlad said coldly.
"Vlad, you better control yourself," Alya warned for the last time.
"Oh Alya just shut the fuck up, this is just a small problem. Even if I beat him to death in front of the principal, no one would even give a fuck. Since this is the last examination, it is better for him not to step into his senior high school years at all, or rather I will make sure that he will have no time to stepped onto the hospital," he said as his smile turned cruel.
Evan, who had already stood up weakly pushed Paolo away, and the guy just moved away wanting to see him get thrashed.
Evan understood that he will be killed this time, and left with no choice.
His hand slowly moved toward his pocket and inside, there was a pair of scissors that he had always carried in case things became too dangerous.
This time, he was showing a scared expression on the outside, but inwardly, he was releasing the killing intent that had been stored inside him after two years of hatred.
Since his future was going to be ruined anyway, it was better to ruin at least one of them.
Seeing Evan scared as shit, Vlad snickered.
But then, the rooftop door suddenly opened, and a girl with black hair appeared.
Her breathing was haggard, and her face was filled with worry.
"Stop it right now! I have already called the police, and they are already on their way. If you are smart, you better stop this now," she shouted while still holding her phone, showing them that the call was really connected to the police.
Seeing this, some of the boys frowned, while Alya looked at her as if she were stupid.
And the reason for that look soon came.
Being disturbed like this made Vlad hate it so badly, he walked toward the entrance door where the girl was standing, without even a hint of panic on his face.
"The person you are dealing with is Vlad Corpenicus. Save me some face and do not come here today. Also, call an ambulance later, since there is going to be another victim added to the list,"
Vlad said while standing only two steps away from the phone that was facing him, with the call still running.
Hearing that name, the police officers on the other end of the call, who were about to move out, immediately stopped the running police car and replied in a humble tone. "Oh, it is actually Young Master Vlad, please do not worry and just do your own thing and enjoy yourselves. We will call the ambulance after you are done."
After saying that, Vlad felt too bored to continue talking so he simply raised his finger and tapped the end call button on her phone.
Vlad then looked up and saw her face, which had turned as pale as a sheet of paper.
After what had happened just now, she was scared shitless.
