I Reincarnated In A Otome Game As Love Rival

Part 33

With a new look, Ai doesnt change too much. It still follow Ruca everywhere which is same as before.

However there is something strange. Its appetetite become bigger than before.

Now, its doesnt want to consume anything less than dangerous poison. Poison less than red level colour only makes it lose her appetetite and refuse to eat.

This behaviour makes Ruca in difficult position.

When her poison storage become empty, she needs to go out and keep looking for new poison.

After setting out before during the time she looking for the poison to cure Liniel's mother, her father had give her permission to go adventure outside whenever she wants.

This freedom tremendously benefit Ruca.

As a result, her research on poison become deeper and vast.

Her knowledge on mana manipulation also become more profounding.

Training the mana manipulation outside have make her mind power become more stronger and lately she doesnt have any problem in utilizing the skill.

Sometimes she also can make a harmless poison become deadly in a split second with a touch of her hand.

With her skill, no poison can be undetectable to her and even the tasteless and odourless cannot escape her detection.

It is not exaggerate to say that she is on par with master in poison field or even beyond that.

Seeing that there is nothing Evelyn-sensei can teach Ruca, her poison knowledge lesson will come to end.

Now, it is up to Ruca decision and her fate in advancing her poison skill.

To show her gratitude to Evelyn-sensei in patiently teaching her, Ruca starts preparing the parting gift.

As Evelyn-sensei is a person that truly passionate in poison field, Ruca wants to gift her a new poison recipe and the cure recipe she creates during one of her adventure.

The poison have a potential in attacking the people by only taking a sniff. It is not deadly as the effect is only making the person feel sleepy and sleep for 3 days.

After all preparation had done, she stuffed the recipe into her bag.

After sending the notification of her visit to Evelyn-sensei's house, she starts move into the carriage while being accompanied by her maid.

Thinking on how happy her teacher will be when receive her gift, Ruca smile along the way.

Suddenly, her carriage stop. There is a loud noise outside.

"Ruca-sama, are you alright?". Her maid immediately checking Ruca's condition.

"I am fine. Can you check out what happened outside?" Ruca said worriedly.

"Thank God. Please wait a bit while I check out what happend outside". The maid then move out of the carriage.

While waiting patiently inside the carriage,

Suddenly Ruca hears her maid screams.

She feels shocked. Immediately she exit the carriage.

What she sees is a group of bandit are holding her maid and carriage driver as hostage.

"Hahaha. Look what we got here. Not only wealth but a noble lady. What a good harvest!". A lecherous looking bandit swallow his saliva while looking at Ruca.

"I have never eat a noble lady before. I have already tired of the cheap prostitute's . Now it is time to taste a new flavour. Hahaha". Another bandit starts to lick the sword at his hand.

"Ruca-sama. Dont worry about us. Go save yourself. Run!". The maid and driver begging Ruca to run away. They could not forgive themselves if Ruca is getting hurt.

"Dont worry. Not only your lady will be eaten, you too are not going to left untouch. Hahaha". The bandit leader that holding maid starts to open the maid's clothes button one by one.

The driver try to save the maid. But how can his little figure can save her. What he got then a numerous beating.

"No!!!". The maid scream and trying to move. However the bandit hold her too tight. There is no room to escape.

Looking at the mess up situation, Ruca gets extremely angry.

This is the first time she wants to kill someone badly. She scans the bandit one by one and imagine their death.

Her killing intent suffocate the bandits body. They feel an urge to escape but did not know why.

Slowly Ruca reach out to her dagger hidden in the sleeves.

Without any expression, she starts to attack the bandit. Despite the strong body of bandit, they cannot withstand any Ruca's attack.

This sudden killing spree makes the bandits fall into confusion and vulnerable to Ruca's dagger.

Watching Ruca's one sided killing, the bandit leader that holding the maid feels angry looking his men getting killed.

In order to shift Ruca's focus in the battle, he yells, "Stop moving or I will kill this maid". The bandit leader scratch the maid's neck by using the sword to show that he is serious.

"No Ruca-sama. I am fine. Dont worry about me." The maid said while her tears fall drop by drop. She knows that if Ruca stop, Ruca will be in a dangerous moment.

Looking at how worried the maid for her, how can Ruca dare take any chance on her maid's life.

She immediately stop moving and surrender.

The uninjured bandit start to move and seize Ruca's hand.

Feeling that the winning is on his side, the bandit leader laugh loudly as if he mocking Ruca weakness.

Without any word, Ruca let the bandit bound her hand. All she can do is glaring at the bandit. She is thinking on how to use the poison to kill the bandit even its mean to expose her identity as a poison user.

Suddenly, a swift throwing knife strucked at the bandit leader neck. Without sound of struggle, the bandit leader lost his life immediately.

Realize that the maid are not threathen anymore, Ruca immediately used her mana manipulation skill to unwind the rope that bind her.

After that she kills each bandit without missing anyone.

After feeling safe, she moves to the maid and hug the crying maid to calm her. She also apply medicine to driver's wound to heal him.

Looking back at the dead bandit leader, she thinks that if the knife was thrown at her. Even she cannot resist it. That knife was thrown at a really fast movement that doesnt give any chance to counter it.

That deadly attack have a power that none can replicate!

Knowing that someone had help her, she says,"I thank the expert in rescuing us. Please come forward so I can express my gratitude".

After waiting, there are no one appear in front of her. Ruca knows that the stranger wish to remain unknown.

"I thank the expert again and will always remember your kindness." After saying that, Ruca starts to move into the carriage and going to Evelyn-sensei home.

Away from that scene, a masked man is standing on a tree. From the beginning he watches how Ruca handle the situation. He smiles.

"Its look like the girl had change. She becomes a bit strong".

After saying the word, he vanish. Just like there is no one from the beginning.
