Chapter 94
The Principal of Private Cromer Academy, Nathaniel Girby was sweating profusely. He was shivering in fear inside his office. The two students that he wasn't allowed to even think of touching, had a fight, not only one of them broke the arm of the other. He wasn't sure in which bandwagon he was suppose to side with.
On one side is Seiji Amamami, the second son of Kenzo Amamami, a judge, an associate Justice, and the current patriarch of the very powerful Amamami family. He could easily destroy him with the snap of his fingers. Just one word from him, his friends, his family, and everything he holds dear will be either tortured until death, or be sold to the Granado Empire as war slaves.
While on the other side is Lilitth Samarita, someone with an unknown background. Though there is no information on Lilitth, Nathaniel knew that she must be from a very powerful, and influential family. A family who may be on par with the Amamami's the reason for this hypothesis, was simple.
First the way they entered his house without triggering any alarms, while destroying all the cameras without being caught on screen. That makes him think that they were professionals. Second they hired two snipers to keep watch on Lilitth. Third they could threaten most of the people Nathaniel knew. So at this point he could only think that Lilitth's family could either be related to the mafia, are assassins, or is military related.
Anyway you look at it, Nathaniel couldn't ally himself with either one. Yet if he doesn't ally himself with one of them, then he might not survive to see tomorrow. When Nathaniel was in his most desperate, he got a sudden call. It was from the superintendent.
"No matter what happens, even if you are threatened with death, never side with the Amamami's. Protect Lilitth at all cost." He then hang up. The superintendent didn't even greet him, he just simply stated what he wanted and ended the call. The way he delivered the message, was full of fear, and desperation, the same feelings he was having now.
Still having that phone call with the superintendent, actually helped him understand that Lilitth's family was way more dangerous than he thought.
...
Kenzo was in the backseat of his car, trying to figure out who Lilitth Samarita was, but no matter how hard his subordinates try there wasn't much to find out. The only thing they have so far is her name, and birth date, that was it. On the other hand it was quite easy to find out everything about Niki Rayheart.
Even though Kenzo did not fear the lack of details in Lilitth's profile, he did find it extremely odd, how hard it was to gather information on a little girl. Yet the Samarita name wasn't that hard to investigate about, since they have been getting popular lately in the business world.
The Samarita's were a new upcoming family, that suddenly appeared during the past twenty years. The Samarita's were indeed a wealthy family with some deep ties to the government, but he was sure they weren't at the level were they could hide information from the Amamami's.
'There must be a third party involved. They must be using the Samarita girl, to get me to lose their scent. They used the Samarita girl to seduce my son, and when he was surprised she broke his arm. Hmm, this might be a plan from the Tang Clan, of Granado Empire... Or it might be done some new force. Either way, I just need to make an example using the Samaritas and the Rayhearts, after which they'll all know that the Amamami's are still as strong as ever. '
Kenzo's thoughts didn't even acknowledge that he could lose in any scenario. He just kept on wondering what kind of idiotic person even dares try to play this game with him. While thinking about all of these things, Kenzo suddenly sighed.
At this very moment, he was really disappointed in his second son Seiji, and how easily he was manipulated by the third party. Not only that, he got his arm broken by a little girl, in front of a lot of people. This might actually affect the image of the Amamami's since most of the students in that room were children of influential people.
While thinking of a way to silence all the children and their families, Kenzo noticed he was already nearing the school.
...
"You shouldn't have done that! I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry Lillith it's all my fault!" Niki was crying in front of Lilitth.
After Seiji was brought to the nurses office, Niki suddenly broke down and started crying. She was indeed hurt, but more than that, she was scared of what might happen to Lilitth, and her own family.
Her brother already warned her multiple times, not to get involved with Seiji. He even informed her that if Seiji tries to do anything to her, she needs to feign innocence and act as if she doesn't understand a thing, of what he was saying. But now she actually fought him, and her new friend Lilitth, broke his arm because she was angry for her.
She didn't know what to do she wanted to cry out for her Nii-Nii. Lilitth tried her best to comfort her, by hugging her and telling her everything will be alright, but she wouldn't stop crying.
Lilitth on the other hand wasn't really worried, since she was sure her onii-sama will do something about this situation. While Lilitth was busy comforting her crying friend, an announcement was made telling the two of them to head to the Principal's office.
When Niki heard this, she started to cry even harder, her perfect girl image was no longer present, even her radiant aura was now but a dim light. Even though she was trying her best to be as radiant as her Nii-Nii, deep inside she was only a normal little girl.
Lilitth and Niki headed towards the Principal's office, unaware of all the chaos that will ensue a few minutes later.
