Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

"What did you say?" She asked with her eyes widened to the extreme.

The butler sighed and looked at his master with a sad look, not knowing what to say to make her calm down.

"But…we were the only ones there…there was no one else." She kept muttering to herself like a chant of some kind trying to calm herself down.

Then, she had no idea how this happened. Did someone snitch to the higher-ups? Was there someone else with them at that time?

All kinds of questions appeared inside her head and made her chaotic state even more chaotic.

"Who did that?" She directed the question this time to the butler.

The man felt a chill run down his spine when he saw those cold eyes that looked at him. It was as if he was staring at death from up close.

But, he tried to keep himself calm to a certain extent and also to make sure his master doesn't do anything stupid or reckless.

"My apologies, my lady. I have no idea. The new-"

Before he could even complete the sentence, he was grabbed by the neck again with even more strength. Then, Leislet pulled closer to her face until there were only a few centimeters between them.

In normal circumstances, being this close to a beautiful woman like Leislet was akin to a blessing from god. But, this time, it was more of a curse. Her cold glare made him wish he could get away as fast as possible.

He also felt his throat getting crushed slowly as he squirmed left and right to find a way to breathe.

"...I want every bit of information about what happened that day. Every single piece of information you can find. You have two hours." She said in the coldest voice he had ever heard. It was as if she was giving him a death sentence rather than an order.

Then, she released him from her grip and kicked him out of the room.

After that, she opened the TV in front of her and searched for the news channel.

When she found it, there was already a meeting happening between the news presenter and some politicians from different backgrounds.

There was also a pic of a young boy with his distinct long black hair and his pale white skin.

She increased the volume to listen closely to the conversation.

"It's unbelievable how bad this situation is. Not only did we lose the midnight song but we also sustained huge losses. The reason for that is this criminal who betrayed the whole team. We save him from death and that's how he repays our kindness."

"Yes, Michael. Nightingale had recruited another potential threat to the whole world and we could only watch them do that. This kid is by far the most dangerous out of them all. He could even blend in with society and we wouldn't know."

The man named Micheal nodded his head and added.

"We must find them and erase them once and for all. It's already enough how much destruction they did to this world throughout the years."

Then, as they were talking, Leislet opened her phone and checked the bounty list on the hunter association app. There, on top of the chart was Acht's picture.

What made her even more shocked was the bounty they put on his head.

"10000 gold coins…10000 gold coins." She couldn't hold herself as she muttered the number.

Just to put it into perspective, 10000 coins are more than enough to buy a whole arsenal of S-Rank weapons and still have enough money to buy a villa in the most wealthy part of Lagradon.

It was such an absurdly high number that even Leislet had to look at it twice to make sure she wasn't hallucinating.

"This is bad…this is really bad…Acht is in grave danger." She said,

Now that he was the most sought-after criminal, many hunters will try to look for him to capture him or even kill him on the spot.

It was not an exaggeration to say that hundreds or even thousands of hunters will start a search process on a massive scale around the world. Finding him was hard but it wasn't impossible.

"These scums are the worst of the worst and now an even worse scum is joining them."

"Shut up."

"I hope he gets captured and tortured."

"Shut up."

"Instead of being of help to other people, he chose to be trash."

"I SAID SHUT UP!!!!" She shouted as she threw the controller at the screen, breaking it into pieces and creating a hole in the wall.

She then covered herself up and closed her eyes. She had no idea what to do at this point.

All of her thoughts were messy and impossible to understand.

But, she was sure of one thing.

"I must find Acht before they find him." She muttered.

That was the only thing she had to do before anything else. He was in grave danger at this point and the only way out of this is for her to hide him until things calm down.

"But how am I going to find him?"

She knew very well how Nightingale are basically masters when it comes to erasing their traces from any place in the world. Finding them is basically as hard, if not even harder, than finding a needle in the middle of a vast ocean.

So, she had no idea how to start looking for him.

But, then she remembered something important.

"That bitch, Scarlett. She could still have 'that', right?" She muttered as her expression lightened greatly.

Then, with a new lead and possible hope, she stood up from the bed and wore her clothes that she found on the chair beside her.

Leaving the room, she walked out of the hospital and made a call to someone.

Her eyes were still sad and her expression was still pale and sickly. But, hope had rejuvenated her and made her find energy in her body that she normally should not have with her injury.

'I will find you…No matter what…even if you are hiding under the ground or in the sky. Even if you left this world as a whole…I will still find you! Just wait for me, Acht!' She thought to herself.
