An Extra Who Wants To Escape The Obsessive Male Lead - Chapter 89.2
Chapter 89.2
“What nonsense…”
She seemed unable to grasp the situation.
To be precise, she didn’t seem to be in a state to think clearly. The tips of her fingers began to glow with a blue light.
“….!”
What I felt there was the power of the source.
…Could it be that she was rampaging?
Rumble!
The water that had filled the basement surged high into the air, and then it pierced me with a sharp sound.
Splash!
The water I was leading and Venia’s red water collided, creating a loud noise.
“….!”
I thought my power was getting stronger as I confronted Venia. However, was it a little lacking to stop a violent person with it?
Boom!
The water stream containing the strongest power pierced through the water wall I had created and rushed toward me.
Hiss!
To my surprise, Diello’s hand intervened in front of me. Holding fire in his hand, he blocked the incoming water stream and swung his arm.
Splash!
As the evaporating water stream was thrown far away along his hand, the wall rumbled with an ominous sound.
“….!”
At that moment, Diello and I briefly made eye contact. His gaze clearly showed concern for me, and his urgent intervention couldn’t be a lie.
As a result, Venia cursed.
“You were hiding this power? Aha, he took your hand because it was useful?”
It was true that our interests aligned. Still, I wondered if we had fully kept our promise to each other by holding hands.
The moment he hid Ferro from me, that trust was broken.
“It’s not for nothing that Diello Argenta chose you.”
However, there was something to be said about her following words.
Glug!
I distorted the water to make it shapeless and created numerous water arrows around me before I opened my mouth to Venia, whose eyes met mine.
“I’m sorry, but I’m the one who chose him.”
“….!”
Water arrows rushed at Venia, who opened her eyes wide.
“I chose him.”
He didn’t choose me. I chose him as my partner.
The contract marriage was my choice.
Boom!
A sound that was unbelievable to be the sound of a person and water hitting each other echoed through the basement.
And Venia, who hit the wall, staggered and collapsed.
“This—!”
However, it seemed that she had reached the limit of her ability to raise water. Her arms were already scattering, shimmering with a blue light. She didn’t look like a typical person who was rampaging. She seemed to be wielding too much power.
She tried to raise water as her last struggle.
Boom!
But that was it. I could now take control of the water.
The water quickly subsided.
At that moment—
Thud.
—Something like a white pearl that was half-embedded in her hand fell to the floor. It had melted halfway.
“…A power crystal?”
It seemed like a power crystal, yet its shape and the magic I felt were strange.
Hiss…
As the white pearl-like thing fell from Venia’s hand, she rapidly lost her power. Even when she tried to move the water, she could only make small waves.
“Diello, Argenta…!”
Gritting her teeth, she cursed until the end. Venia, who had been pouring out unspeakable curses, soon completely turned into light and disappeared. And the magic that had maintained her form mixed with the water flowing on the floor.
Whoosh…
As I looked at the spot where she had died after sending the water out through the exit, I could see the white pearl-like thing melting.
“….”
A heavy silence flowed. I could see the surviving informants holding their breath.
“…Krua.”
At that moment, Diello’s voice rang out.
“I―”
I deliberately avoided looking at his face, which seemed to be trying to say something, and I reached out and stopped him.
“Wait a minute, Diello.”
A short breath burst out.
With Venia gone, the confusion intensified.
The basement room where she appeared wasn’t a torture chamber. It would have been more frightening if it had been a torture chamber, though it was more confusing to see it as an ordinary room.
What on earth did she do in there? Why on earth did you have to hide Ferro from me? Was that the best way?
At that thought, it was difficult to face him.
It seemed like I would have more complicated and bad thoughts.
“…I think I need some time.”
I lowered the hand that had stopped him. His face came into my sight as if brushing past me, but I closed my eyes with effort.
“…Don’t look at me now, let’s go.”
I turned away from him.
I left the underground annex while watching people coming in to clean up the messed-up basement.
