Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

Chapter 240- Soul Academy City (Part 2)

It has been almost 7 years since Acht came to this world. He had fought many monsters, beasts, humans, and even aliens from another world. He had seen from this world more than most people could experience in a lifetime and he was slightly grateful for that because it taught him many important lessons and changed him from the ground up.

However, all of that improvement was simply nothing in front of a power so strong that even Acht wasn't sure if he could contain it or not. A power that was way beyond his abilities.

This factor was the 'protagonist'. Who was the protagonist? He is the main character of the whole world. The most important chess piece on the board and also the wielder of that world's fate. The protagonist is simply a power that only one person could possess and it is more than enough to turn the whole thing upside down.

As much as Acht feared this power, he was also eager to see it with his own eyes. He wanted to see which kind of person the main character of this world would be.

'The main events are about to start and if they actually follow the original book even remotely, that boy is simply one lucky motherfucker. If I recall his name correctly then he is Adrian. ' Acht thought as he peeked behind him.

"Mmm, excuse me?" A soft voice suddenly spoke to Acht and the others. It was slightly timid but very determined.

Acht didn't want to turn around but Leislet had already looked back for some reason. She eyed Adrian silently and waited for him to speak. Having a beauty like Leislet look at you is a very desirable experience for any sane man in the world and Adrian was no different than them.

His face blushed slightly but he still continued with what he wanted to say.

"Why did you hit that boy over there?" He asked.

"None of your business," Leislet replied coldly.

"It is my business. I like to help powerless people against those who try to bully them and you clearly bullied him." He said.

"Huh?" Leislet felt a little bit pissed because of his words. Acht had actually stopped that guy from hitting his ex-girlfriend in front of people and potentially kill her and then he gets accused of bullying. Bullshit!

Even though he was the topic of that conversation, Acht could only think of one single thing.

'Why is she even trying to talk with him? In normal cases, Leislet ignores anyone she doesn't deem worthy of her time.' He thought to himself.

Then, his mind quickly linked everything together, it was most likely the protagonist effect taking place. The effect of making the main character the center of every conflict, problem, event, and anything else that drives the story ahead.

After taking a deep breath to calm down, Leislet started approaching Adrian with slow steps, her eyes never left his the whole time. She wanted to warn him from trying to blame Acht. However…

*Tap*

Her leg suddenly sprained out of nowhere and she started falling ahead. She was falling directly toward Adrian. The latter extended his arms and tried to catch her before she hits the ground. But, another unexpected thing happened.

*Swish*

A shadow moved at an inhuman speed and closed the distance between him and Leislet before he grabbed her arm and rested her body in his embrace.

"You ok?" Acht asked. His eyes looked deeply into hers as if he was trying to open her soul and see inside.

"Y-Yes." Leislet could only stutter from this sudden hug.

As for Acht, his face only turned grimmer and grimmer with each passing second.

'A person as strong as Leislet spraining their leg and falling is so rare it might as well be an impossible occurrence. Her balance is simply not comparable to normal humans at all. But, a simple interaction with Adrian and the plot is already trying to link them together. She is a heroine too after all.' He thought.

If such a stupidly impossible thing happened so easily, Acht could only shudder to imagine what else could happen with Adrian being close to him.

'S-So fast. I could barely even see his shadow. Who is this guy?' Adrian thought to himself as he eyed Acht up and down.

To be fair, he did feel jealous of Acht. He was way better-looking than him, he was strong as hell and he also had a group of beauties following him. He had what every man desired in his life.

Then, with such a bad first impression, Adrian immediately started hating Acht. Hell, he even stopped him from grabbing Leislet's body. Just looking at her soft boobs, Adrian could only curse his bad luck.

'Fuck, I am so unlucky.'

Acht ignored the protagonist and helped Leislet up before he said.

"Be careful next time, ok?"

His tone was flat but because Leislet knew him way too well to ignore the small details in his reaction and his words, she could feel that Acht was annoyed.

Being the smart woman she was, she could immediately see why he was angry. However, the idea alone made her shake her head in disbelief.

'Is he… jealous? No no no! There is no way that 'Acht' could be jealous. I can believe that this world was a big piece of cheese and never believe that Acht could feel jealous for me. But… even if it is just a stupid imagination… It feels very good~' she smiled secretly at Acht.

Her heart was beating quickly and her breathing became erratic.

"Excuse me." Adrian tried to catch her attention again.

"Piss off," Leislet said with a cold glare before she followed Acht.

Scarlett and Mia also glared at Adrian with blaming eyes. Was it not for Leislet walking closer to him, she wouldn't fall off and then Acht would have had to catch her and hug her in his embrace. That little shit was the one to blame.

'Sigh, this the worst. I made three beautiful girls hate me in less than a minute for some reason. My life here will be hell.'

He felt that all of this was unfair which was ironic considering the fact that he was by far the luckiest person in this world. However, luck had clashed with an equal if not stronger force.

But, neither of the two knew that for the time being.
