Rebirth: The Villainous Young Master Doesn't Want to Follow the Script

**********

LOCATION: SOMEWHERE WITHIN THE BORDERS OF STELLARUS EMPIRE

*****ARCANUM DE FLEUR H.Q.******

Rheina didn't stopped her bloodlust from leaking as she looked at Iason to pressure him and Iason almost coughed because of the sudden rise of the bloodlust that's emitting coming from the Lotus Killer.

"Are you sure? Because I couldn't hear their breathing if you say that you just put them to sleep or something. Tell me the truth. Where are they?"

Her voice became nothing but void of emotions as she said those statement and Iason had a feeling that if he didn't give her a proper explanation then, he didn't know if he could win a fight against this bloodlust woman.

'Tsk! It is without a doubt that she is also one of their descendants by just looking at her and I bet if we ever engage into a fight here, I won't be so sure if I would win against her.'

*SHING!

'F*ck! Seriously?!'

Iason managed to defend himself by clashing their weapons with one another from a sudden attack coming from the woman in front of him and he gritted his teeth because of the pressure from the other party was releasing.

'Godd*mn it! Just how f*cking strong is this woman would be?!'

He deflected their weapons away from each other, but Rheina manage to hold her ground as she attacked Iason once again and swing her two daggers to gave him a cut through his stomach that Iason didn't manage to defend himself as blood splattered around in the area.

"AHHH!"

'Even the temper is truly like them! Argh! They might look amiable sometimes but there are times when they acted like a lion ready to strike their enemies if they were provoked.'

"Are you just going to keep quiet or are you taking me for an idiot?! SPEAK NOW IASON! Or so help me that I would do whatever it takes to purge your soul into the depths of hell!"

Rheina shouted as he continued her attacks on the person who intruded on her base and Iason keeps on defending himself from this madwoman.

'Sometimes, it's hard to reason out with these kinds of people, especially if they were blinded on what they just saw in front of them.'

Iason thought of a way to snap the woman who keeps on attacking him left and right and he couldn't see any opening for him to strike back.

'On the surface, others would think that she's just attacking without thinking but I know for a fact that this woman is just reading my movements in silence, and I still couldn't see any openings for me to attack!'

"H-hey! W-would you please…."

*SHIIING!

*SWOOSH!

"AHHHH!

Iason stumbled on the ground half-kneeled while using his sword as a support to balance himself for him not to fall on the ground as he held into his right stomach where he got stabbed in real time and coughed heavily as he looked at the woman who stood away three steps from where he was.

'Just how strong is she right now?! D*mn! This stab hurts me a lot! Geez!'

"MASTER! Are you alright?"

Eden, who was on the sidelines and didn't speak during the battle takes place, she almost choked down because of the pressure her master was emitting from earlier and during the battle, it reduced to some a little bit but still, her bloodlust didn't waver for a moment.

'Just who is this person that master called Iason, by the way? Although he looks amiable but the way master talks to him, tells me that this person wasn't that ordinary, and if there was a fight happened between me and him, I won't guarantee that I would win.'

But that person Iason was easily subdued by her master.

Right now, a mysterious intruder appeared, and her master addressed this person as Iason who walks into their base as if he owned the place and that makes her master became angry even more when her master stated that she didn't hear the other member's breathing on the outside.

There is this one particular skill that her master had but no one knows about what it was, but they never questioned their master because it was none of their business and if their master wanted to keep it a secret then, they would just turn a blind eye to it.

For what Eden observed, their master seems to have an ability to identify if a target wasn't breathing or something, even if it was miles away from her, as long as she focused on that particular target.

Most of the new generation of Arcanum De Fleur, most of them were the daughters of the previous Arcanum De Fleur members and there are some histories about the Clandestine clan and Arcanum De Fleur had passed on for the future generations that come.

It was stated that the Clandestine clan wasn't a native clan within the Cranus Continent and their home clan is from another continent. However, even if the Clandestine clan were not a native clan of this continent, in their original homeland, their household still exist.

As for how many years or decades since the Clandestines had settled within this continent, it was still unknown, even in this day and age.

That's why the direct descendants of the Clandestines are different compared to the natives of Cranus Continent in terms of powers and abilities.

Eden called out her master and asked her if she were okay.

Rheine, on the other hand, knowing Eden as a worrywart as always, just smiled at her and said; "Don't worry. As you can see, I'm perfectly fine. No need to worry."

'I'm not totally fine at all. I still couldn't hear the other member's breathing and the sign of they were truly alive. Iason truly did something to them! How dare he…!'

Rheina calmed herself down as she didn't want to lose her reasoning when confronting this person. Knowing how tricky he is, she snapped her fingers and metallic chains with purplish poisons appeared and trapped Iason as she commands to bind him tightly.

"AHHH! Are you serious? This is f*cking insane!"

Rheina snorted as she said coldly; "Oh, yeah? It seems like you're forgetting something about me though. Do you think I'm that weak for you to confront me like that?"

The Lotus Killer's eyes glimmer in anger and hatred as she snapped her fingers even more and the metallic chains obeyed the commands of their master as the chains are now tightened Iason's reign as the man tried to struggle to escape but all that went into a naught.

After that, Rheina summoned her golden flames surrounding them and trapped the man within the flames that makes him screamed in pain because of the injuries that he had and to add with the metallic chains filled with poison and flames surrounding him, if he wasn't that strong enough, he would be roasted to death in his situation.

"H-hey! J-just stop already, okay?! I-I didn't kill them!"

Rheina just stared at the man who keep on struggling to free himself from the woman's clutches but every time he did it, the poison would go to his injuries and that makes him hissed in pain and if this continued, he would lose consciousness and would succumb into nothingness.

'I shouldn't have done that! Who knew that she has quite a temper!'

After minutes had passed, Rheina snapped her fingers once more and released Iason from the metallic chains and the golden flames surrounding them vanished in an instant.

"Now, release my people within your [Void Prison] before I gave you an antidote for the poison."

After she said that, Iason finally got a breath when he got released from the woman's clutches and swing his hands to release the woman's people in his [Void Prison].

With that action, the Lotus Killer finally heard her subordinates breathing and now that they have been freed, Rheina direct her gaze at the person in front of her who still had a hard time breathing because of the poison and flames that he almost inhaled or got into his injuries.

"Now, before I give you the antidote, tell me what you're doing here first. You don't have to worry about the poison prolonging inside your body because it's nothing but a slow-acting poison but just a reminder, be careful not to outburst your emotions or that poison would accelerate further and caused you to explode. You don't want that, right?"

Rheina said as she smiled gently at him and Iason knew that the woman isn't bluffing and he needed to heed her words or else, he would pay the price for his own foolishness.

'Well, it's his fault for testing this woman but I didn't mean to provoke her though.'

Iason sighed as he had a hard time breathing because of the poison and said; "F-forgive my insolence for this one, young lady however…. *cough! * I-I just want to deliver a news coming from the Patriarch."

After that, Rheina raised an eyebrow at him and turned around because the Lotus Killer knew Iason meant to say but she didn't look back at him but said her piece; "I already relinquish my rights to someone else and that person already had the [token] and had already journeyed himself to Cliffton Empire."
