36 You Ought To Thank Me (2/2)

Noticing how he was alone with Hongyue, he promptly got up and pretended nothing happened. However, seeing that grin on her face pissed him off. His cheeks shone with humiliation. When did he fall so low even to allow a 'normal' to laugh at him? Enraged, he lunged over and grasped a handful of her hair and flung her to the ground. Hongyue's body hit the ground with a loud thud. Even as she hit the ground, she kept her smirk which was slowly changing.

A mockingly cruel grin of death slowly appeared.

But how could the guard even pay attention to her facial changes? He was already furious that he had embarrassed himself in front of her.

”Annoying! Annoying! ANNOYING!” He roared breathlessly in anger as he kicked her.

”You stupid piece of trash! You dare laugh at me! You don't believe I'll kill you?!!”

Hongyue slowly sat herself up, her eyes filled with amusement. It was as she wasn't being kicked in the first place.

Minutes ago, he was the one who couldn't even stand up because of terror. Now he was the one screaming at a weak little girl forced to the ground. What scum! How shameless can he get?

She stretched out her hand to his leg as if to use it to stand up. The head guard seeing her hand reach closer to him abruptly stopped his yelling. He fearfully retreated before he paused. His face burned red in a fury and rushed forward to stomp on her hand.

Hongyue cried out in pain, her body trembling.

Perceiving this, the head guard crooked his lips in a vicious smile.

Right. It was just his imagination. What was he so afraid of anyway? She was just a piece of trash!

He dug the heel of his shoe into her hand, rotating about right to left. Satisfied, he let out a snort of haughtiness.

”You good for nothing! Always will be! Don't think for a minute; you'll ever leave this lifestyl-”

Before he could even complete his sentence, the foot on Hongyue's hand ruptured open. Blood spurted out as his veins snapped apart. His eyes bulged wide open as he strangled back a scream. His legs exhausted from the pain and he collasped on both knees in front of Hongyue. He watched in horror as Hongyue leisurely pulled herself up and stood before him. She gently massaged her fingers and hummed cheerfully. Her newly modified black and blue eyes floated over to him, and he nearly stopped breathing.

What good for nothing?!

The one in front of him was clearly a monster!

He opened his mouth to yell only to find he couldn't. Hongyue's hands were locked tightly around him.

He heard something snapped, and she eventually let go.

”I just broke your vocal cords, so there's no point in screaming.” She watched at him intensely before presenting a dangerous smile.

”You ought to thank me, no? After all, I just began the fun.”
