"Let me guess, you're a fairy too," I tried to confirm with him.
"That's why I can help you if you help me talk to Ella. I can offer you a contract," he suggested.
"And you think I would accept? You barely have any control over your powers yet," I shuddered from the thought of having to be closer to him.
There was no way I was going to get closer to a murderer. If I could, I would throw him out of this mansion with no hesitation. In fact, that idea was increasingly becoming more tempting with every passing minute.
"I'm trying, don't you see? It takes centuries to get used to this," he felt like I was being too cruel.
"And?" I gestured for him to continue.
"But, it's easy to guide someone between dimensions," he looked like he was confident in his abilities.
"Don't you think she'll need some time to decide?" Luke suddenly interrupted our conversation.
"You might be right," he disappeared to give me some space.
It was unfortunate I had thrown all my forks and knives at him. Now that he was gone, I was starting to feel hungry. I felt like I needed to jab the food to help relieve some of my stress. Who knew when he would come back to ask for an answer?
"Can you pass me some forks and knives?" I pretended my exchange with the fairy had never happened.
Claire immediately called for a servant who passed me some new utensils. I began to eat my food alone as everyone else looked like they gave up on eating. The entire room was silent to the point the only sounds came from me slicing the food into tiny pieces.
"You should eat too, who knows when he'll come back?" I advised them.
"He's been after me ever since this afternoon," I showed how persistent he has been.
When I noticed tiny white powders drifting into my drink again, I immediately threw my cup in the air and placed a barrier over the entire table. As I expected, the drink exploded, creating a great fog inside the room. Just where were these things coming from?
"I guess these drinks aren't safe too," I mumbled.
Both Yulian and Claire quickly disposed of the drinks with the servants once the fog disappeared. However, this was nothing compared to being inside Jules' mansion. All these attacks were on a much lower scale.
"Are fairies common in the first district?" I wondered.
"It's the first time I have ever seen one," Haruka revealed. Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/my-bothersome-life_10609696606076405/boy-in-love-(9)_48814405269388559 for visiting.
"I thought they were a myth," another fraction leader muttered.
"I heard that they never come out of the other dimension," another person agreed.
Oh. So others knew they existed, but most of their existence was still a mystery. But why did they have to appear in front of me? Why not anyone else?
"Were you perhaps able to visit the other dimension?" a person carefully asked.
I brightly smiled, "I'm sure if you help him with Ella, he may bring you there in the future."
There was no way I was going to reveal more of my situation than I had to. Maybe if I actually shouted the words, he would choose a new and better target. Someone who wasn't me.
"It's just that I heard that those who visit the other dimension never come back," the person explained.
I wished I had asked Luke about it inside the hover car. If I had known they weren't human from the start, I would've interacted with them with more caution. But I was too entangled in their mess to escape from it now. I was in the web of two murderers out there.
"I may be an exception," I warned him to stop probing.
"So I was wondering, is there anyway to fortify your barriers from unwanted guests from coming in?" I changed the topic.
"This isn't the first event they have attended. Apparently the three of them have been following each other around at other events as well," I pointed out.
Everyone froze from the thought of their mansions becoming like Jules'. It was likely they never imagined that their event may be the next place the incidents would occur. One tiny careless mistake could lead to someone's death with the existence of these horrible fairies who had unstable powers.
"Maybe we should cancel our event as well," a person whispered.
"It doesn't seem like a bad idea," another person agreed.
"If you give me your design plan, I can help," I offered to decrease the number of potentially dangerous attacks.
The leader of a minor fraction hesitated before he showed the detailed layout of his mansion. It meant everyone knew the insides of what would be going on. I sighed as I instantly noticed the same problems that were inside the family mansion of Yulee.
"What's with the candles? Don't you know fire is easily manipulable? It could burn the entire mansion and the others around it!" I warned them.
"And how could you not separate the roses from their stems? What if they decided to use their thorns to choke someone to death? Plus all these sculptures placed in the ballroom. Don't you know they could easily float to crush someone or fall down on all the guests like a domino since they're placed so close to each other!" I couldn't believe their carelessness.
