I Noticed That It Was an Academy After 10 Years

Side Story 2-Fear and Hunger (7)

‘If you don’t go to sleep early, a witch in the mountains will snatch away bad children who don’t go to bed early.’

A story her grandparents used to tell her grandchildren.

Bandit Kane gasped at the vague past that suddenly came to mind.

“Witch…”

Yes.

Witch.

If she wasn’t a witch, how could she rip off a person’s head so easily?

‘Soo, you have to hide.’

Kane rushed into her empty house and looked for her hiding place. But she didn’t have much space to hide an adult man.

After wandering around for quite some time, he finally found a place to hide.

Under the bed.

He forced himself under the bed. My skin was scratched and scraped by the rough floor, but it wasn’t important right now.

Getting hurt is better than dying.

“…Where did you go~?”

A voice mixed with joy.

How can you kill people and do it for fun?

Kane covered her mouth, covering her face with horror.

If even the slightest sound leaks…

Ttogak.

Ttogak.

Gwaik-

Gwaik-

The old wooden floor screams in an ear-piercing way.

The sound was gradually approaching Kane.

‘Shit… Stop… !’

Soon, a foot appeared in Kane’s field of vision. A girl’s feet wearing ordinary shoes.

Normally, he would have been aroused by the sight of her, but knowing that the owner of her feet could rip off her head her as if he were decapitating his own doll of her, he could only feel fear.

‘Please please… ‘

The witch continued to make the sound of her footsteps as if she was looking for him. As her footsteps got closer and further away, Kane’s heartbeat grew stronger and weaker in proportion.

The sound gets closer.

It gets further away.

We are getting closer again.

Getting further away…

The room suddenly became quiet.

Kane rolled her eyes and muffled the scream that threatened to burst out of her mouth.

Otherwise,

“Mister, what are you doing here?”

You will meet her eyes when she lowers her head.

Kane desperately pushed her her body her inside her under her bed.

However, no matter how wide the bed was, even if an adult man pressed his body her her close to her, it would be difficult to move even an inch, so naturally Kane had no choice but to be dragged out of the bed.

“Man, are you scared? There’s no need for that~”

“Live, live…”

“I saved my uncle’s life when he asked me to save him~”

Hazel walked out of her house holding Kane by the neck. Kane struggled, but she couldn’t escape Hazel’s strength, so she had no choice but to be dragged out of the house.

“It will be less dirty here.”

“Please, please…”

“Please kill me~? Okay.”

Hazel threw away Kane, who was dying after breaking her neck, and stretched her legs.

“It’s so refreshing, why haven’t I done it before?”

Is this what a sense of liberation is?

She walked around her village, her humming her, her song, her her, with a refreshing look on her face that was different from usual.

To find the bandits that still remain.

However, her bandits had already run away in panic, so there were no more bandits for her to catch.

“Shall we go see Paymin?”

Covered in blood, she walked toward her younger brother, who was lying in the village square with a worried face, as if the misery she had caused so far was nothing.

————–

Fear.

Natural emotions that all living things have.

But no one wants to be afraid of themselves.

Even creatures made to harbor fear.

‘You saved me, right? ‘Why?’

That’s why Hazel didn’t like the way people looked at her like she was a monster.

“…Paymin~”

“Uh, sister…”

The astonishment also appeared on Feimin’s face when he came to his senses of her.

Hazel looked at Paymin and smiled.

It was a laugh mixed with relief, but the sight of the girl covered in blood smiling only added to the fear.

Feimin struggled to control his expression and staggered to his feet and approached Hazel.

Because she was the only one who could stop Hazel.

“Sister…Let’s go back.”

“…Okay, let’s go home and get treatment quickly.”

Hazel was not oblivious, so she quietly supported her daughter and headed home.

Without even trying to notice the fearful gaze pouring from behind.

———-

“Hazel…”

“…Paimin is hurt.”

Hazel did her best to avoid Angela’s complicated gaze. Perhaps she was completely unaware of what she had done.

And that she felt refreshed by tearing people apart.

After her excitement she subsided and she couldn’t help but notice what she had done, she laid her femin on the bed and turned away.

“…I’ll take a shower.”

She quietly headed to the bathroom.

‘The blood of the Quartz family is so harsh.’

Angela silently looked at her daughter’s back toward her bathroom and swallowed her tears.

—————

‘…I’m hungry.’

Since that day, the only desire that dominates Hazel’s mind as she stays in the corner of her room.

But she knew very well that it was not just hunger.

When it was time to eat, Angela kept dropping off meals to fill her hungry stomach at the door, so it couldn’t have been just hunger.

‘Blood… ‘

I can go out.

But I can’t go out.

It wasn’t a room with a special confinement device, nor was it a sturdy room, so it wasn’t a problem for Hazel to leave the house whenever she wanted.

However, as she realized the cause of the hunger that was increasingly gnawing at her psyche, she was reluctant to let her conscience go outward.

‘You have to hold on.’

If you go on a rampage while drunk on blood, how are you any different from bandits?

He’s a bad bandit who tried to kill people this time, but what’s next?

What if you kill an innocent person?

…What if you put your hands on your parents?

Hazel’s mind was about to become tinged with fear again.

It took three knocks to bring her out of her darkness.

“Hazel, can you please talk to me?”

“…Mom.”

“Mom wants to talk to Hazel.”

“…Please come in.”

The door opens.

And Hazel made eye contact with Angela for the first time in a week.

Angela looking at herself with something in her eyes.

Her heart began to beat wildly.
