After that incident Nsiria stayed on the rooftop—stunned from shock—until it was dark outside. She waited for the night to fall so she can go back to her room, after all, there was no way she could go in the daytime—she was bathed in semen and her clothes were torn off.
The time for students to stay outside was already over, it was past 9:30 pm, hence she will have to pay a penalty of 10,000 C if she was caught by a staff member but compared to what had just happened to her, it was a minor concern.
When the stars were visible in the sky, she stood up, wore whatever was left of her blazer and shirt, and then headed down the stairs. She avoided meeting any person on her way and since all the students were already in their dorm rooms, it was a little easy for her to do that.
Though, to her bad luck even if the students were not around someone from the academy was. As she walked through a hallway that led to the area toward the dorm buildings, she encountered a man.
It was Ryfin; he immediately came to her and asked what happened. Honestly, she wanted to run away and not face him but right now her legs didn't have the strength to do so.
She replied with silence, seeing this Ryfin kinda understood what happened.
"Who did this to you? Was it those girls again?" he asked, while doing so he didn't forget to keep his distance and not touch her—even if it was to comfort her—since she might get scared.
He remained as calm and polite as possible, but Nsiria didn't give him an answer.
"I won't be able to help you until you tell me," he said again.
In her mind, she really wanted to spill everything out; she wanted Ryfin to help her. But just as she was about to open her mouth a voice resounded in her head, "It will be even worse if you ever complained to the teachers, you know what I mean, right?"
It caused her to remember everything that happened once again; she went stiff and started shaking. In her warning, Seiren never made it clear what exactly will happen to Nsiria if she complained to the teachers again but…she wasn't interested in finding that out.
"Tell me," he repeated.
"I-It's nothing...n-no one did this to me," she said only that in a trembling voice, and then, without listening to anything he had to say and left.
It was the worst day of her life. Even in the days that came after that, Seiren kept bullying her, but soon she got a new prey and then Nsiria was left in pieces. But the trauma of that day never left her; she relieved that half an hour almost every day in her nightmare.
But the thing that irritated her the most was that she didn't even know the reason why she was getting bullied. She thought that she must've done something that Seiren didn't like and decided to get back to her, she thought of everything she could, trying to find out where she might've done wrong.
Though she wasn't able to, something she did that angered Seiren, she was not able to remember anything of sorts.
That's why one day she finally decided to ask Seiren directly. It was hard for her to face her but she somehow pushed herself to ask the question, and when she did, the answer she received was:
"Hmmm, there wasn't much of a reason. You just…ahhhhh! How to say? You just seemed like the right person for the job. But if I really had to pick up a reason then I'd say I didn't like the air around you. Anyway, now I'm not interested in you anymore so you can rest assured."
That was it; there wasn't a reason, to begin with. She was just picked randomly by Seiren, she was just a toy was her; a use-and-throw one.
Nsiria kept standing in her place even after Seiren left, she was looking down at the floor and the expression on her face…wasn't of fear or anxiety.
'What the hell is this?! She didn't like the air around me? Are you fucking kidding me?!!'
The expression she carried was of anger. Until she had that all the things she was facing is because she did something, because she somehow got on Seiren's nerve, that's why she is getting punished.
That's why whenever they bullied her she just gave herself an excuse that 'It is happening because of me; I am the one at fault here.'
But when she learned that it was not her fault, or rather anyone's fault; all of it was just a game for the likes of Seiren. The fear she felt toward Seiren turned into anger.
From then she searched for an opportunity to get back at Seiren and teach her a lesson once and for all. She tried all sorts of methods of methods she could think of, she even tried to ally with the other girls Seiren bullied and then outnumber her.
She was only disappointed in the end though, the other girls weren't like her. There were not able to convert their fear into anger and urge for revenge; just as how she did. They were all so terrified of Seiren; like she was some kind of monster.
Nsiria was about to give up when she finally got a chance, it was when Seiren was announced as her opponent in the interclass training session.
The opportunity she was searching for was finally in front of her, she can now literally and legally beat the shit out of her. Nsiria had done her side of research on Seiren all while she was planning to take her revenge.
She knew very well how much Seiren hated losing and how much she loved her reputation. Knowing that she swore to make her lose and crush her reputation.
Sadly, it didn't go as planned. She was confident in her skills before but when the time called for it, she wasn't able to overpower her.
Here she was, lying on the ground and regretting how she missed the golden opportunity she'd been searching for.
