Chapter 61 My Friend, Joseph!
'You dare think dirty of me, huh. I will make sure you apologise to me, you piece of shit!'
Medusa' hair soon split into thick multiple strands which then took the shape of small serpents. The succubus grinned upon seeing the fright in his eyes. The old man immediately knelt in her feet and begged for forgiveness.
"No, no. Please forgive me. I won't ever do that with anyone again."
Medusa had no clue why he was begging her like that because there was no snake- hair transformation in her knowledge. It made her curious regarding why the principal had suddenly started to act frightened.
However Medusa did not care about him, instead she forced him to get up by grabbing his shirt from collars. The succubus hissed at him upon lifting his face up and made the principal see her straight in face.
"Hehe, I won't leave you in such a state that you would be able to do anything to any woman."
The old man was unable to comprehend what to do to break free from the situation. Because Medusa did not seem to hold back from teaching him a lesson. The succubus held his face from the chin portion and squeezed it, but what came ahead was totally beyond her understanding.
Medusa was within his mental sphere the very next moment because of the perks given to her by bonding with Kayden. She looked around but there was no one and within just one flash of bright lightening something appeared. Medusa was practically now back in the same scene when Ceres was inside the room.
'What is this? What vision is this one? Where am I?'
Medusa panicked upon not knowing where she was and what we were. But one thing was certain that she was inside the principal's head. And was practical living inside the same memory which was lived by that principal a few days ago.
"What even is this scene? Am I in some past memory?"
The succubus was unable to comprehend what was the purpose of the scene and why was she even there. Whereas outside the mental sphere, she was still holding the principal from his shirt. While the head of one of Medusa's hair snakes was dug into his neck.
The hair practically absorbed the desired memory from his body which was channelled into her body via that snake fangs. The succubus stood there with her dreamy eyes and was unable to move due to the connection established between them.
"But what is the meaning of this? This does not seem right."
Medusa focused on the sight in front of her eyes, which precisely played in her mind. She comprehended that Ceres was here a few days ago, and had abducted the principal's son to blackmail and persuade him to keep him in.
However Medusa was unable to comprehend that Ceres could simply kill the principal. Then why did he leave him alive and preferred to just sneak in as a professor. Nonetheless the succubus was still unable to detach herself from his mental sphere.

[Scene switches here]
Kayden and Lydia stepped inside the premises and everyone seemed to appear curious about the woman besides him. The chattering resonated in the front ground regarding the identity of the girl. After all, it was hard to believe that someone like Kayden could get such a beautiful girlfriend.
They both slowly dawdled towards their department when Kayden heard the feeble chattering. He did not respond to the voices which were solely filled with curiosity. Lydia slipped her arm into his as Kayden held her tightly. Of course he had to display himself worthy of dating the hottest girl.
'It seems that everything is going according to my plan, no one is able to recognise Lydia. Well nobody really knew she even existed in our batch.'
Kayden heard all the gossip going on around himself, and was happy with the results. Lydia on the other hand had already been aiding in his proceedings by her loving actions.
A chubby guy approached Kayden with a smile over his face. Although Kayden could feel the foul stench of aura coming from him. He did not intend to turn around but some things needed to be cleared. Kayden glanced at the chubby guy with a keen look although he returned the smile.
"Joseph! My friend."
Kayden felt bitter in his mouth upon calling him a friend whereas he was fully aware of the cowardice he showed on that night. (Chapter 1) Nonetheless he stood there waiting for Joseph to reach him, as the bulky boy took a few moments to approach.
"Kayden, how are you man? It's good to see you alive."
Joseph shook hands with him and wrapped Kayden into a hug. He did not show any remorse or anything similar which could imply Joseph was ashamed of what he did that night. Kayden sarcastically chuckled and patted on his back acknowledging that Joseph was trying hard to pretend like old times.
"Alive? Haha, what do you mean by that? Or have you secretly been planning to kill me, huh?"
Kayden mocked him, reminding Joseph about the horrible thing he did. Joseph laughed nervously as he soon crept out a handkerchief to wipe off his sweat. Whereas Kayden was elated upon seeing that reaction which satisfied his thirst to destroy Joseph to a certain extent.
"No, no. What are you talking about Kayden? How can I possibly harm you?"
Joseph wrapped his arm around his shoulder when Lydia stepped back a bit to provide space to both of them.
"You know you are my only friend here, Kayden. I'm just so glad to see you alive after that horrible incident happened at the academy."
Kayden knew that Joseph was solely curious about how he survived. He was also well aware that his so-called friend was not a bad person by nature, Joseph was just a coward who could switch sides when needed. And he did the very same thing that night, but Kayden was still willing to give him a chance to repent.
