Chapter 24 - Special Case

"How is your condition?" I walk inside the room where Alex is. When I look inside, she looks healthier than when I brought her home. "Seems like the potion worked well…" I smiled while leaning by the door with crossed arms. Alex is cleaning up the bed before looking at me.

"It cost me a lot of points, though..." She sighs with her face sour.

"How are you going to pay for them?"

"The points I receive will go straight to pay the debt."

She follows me to the living room. I told her to sit first while I go to take the takeout I've ordered. After thanking the delivery guy, I put the food in front of Alex.

"You eat first..." I open the packaging and push the first meal towards her.

"Thanks!" She is not polite and takes it from my hand with a smile.

I'm also taking one for me. We eat while watching the TV. It's fun skipping school like this once in a while. 'I can never do this with Becca and Caroline because they are too diligent.' I let out a small chuckle when thinking of Becca's frowning face and Caroline's panicked face.

"Say is your real name Alex?" I asked after finishing a few bites of my food. Trying to get to know her more.

"Yeah. But, only my name is the same. My family name is different in every world. At least that's what the report said." She answered calmly after swallowing the food in her mouth. "What about you?"

"It's kinda complicated. My real name is Akemi. But, I've lived longer using Viollete so, my real name is mostly history now…" I shrug while sipping on the carbonated drink. "But, in this world, my name is Avaline Ricks."

"Ah! What should I call you then?"

"You can call me Viollete in private. Ava is also fine."

"Alright…" She pursed her lips while nodding.

"You said before that you don't remember anything from your previous mission?"

"Yeah… about that." She put down her meal box on the table while hissing. "It was recommended by my system. I also requested it after reading the reports of my previous mission worlds. I don't really mind not having any memories or attachments to the world. I also avoid reading the reports of my previous mission." She looks at me with a nonchalant expression. "Most of my mission has a fucked up ending after I finished all the task."

"Is that so…" My mouth twitched a little after hearing her explains things calmly.

"What about you? How're things in this world?" She leans forward while picking back her meal box and continue to eat.

"Things are going pretty well. But, I'm only here for a month, so I can't say anything about what can happen in the future. I just have to make sure my mission target is not doing anything that will contribute to her destruction end."

"Your mission target is Rebecca Sullivan, right?"

"Yeah! Her parents only care about the families' reputation, and her brother is not a good thing. But, most of this trouble can be avoided as long I solved the root of the problem early."

"That sounds really easy..." Alex sighed as she leans back on the couch. "My whole family is a pain in the ass. Even Alice, this body's stepsister, is preparing to bankrupt her father's company. "I have to make sure I don't die in her hands but, I almost failed."

"I was really shocked when I encountered that gangster and saw you passed out like that." I put my meal box on the table after I finished eating.

"I think they were sent by Damian. Alice's suitor." Alex frowned when she talks about the event. " Maybe my action and changes are too sudden, and they have become suspicious."

"That's crazy!" I was shocked by her statements. I mean, If we think logically, she and everyone included in her mission is around 17 years old. Even my body is supposed to be 15 years old. Only the villainess and the male leads are 17 years old. Only the third male lead is supposed to be 16 years old.

"When is your destruction ends are going to happen?" My face can't help but frown when I asked that question.

"Somewhere around next year. I don't know the exact date, but I only have 11 months to make sure I don't die early." He rubbed her head while sighing.

"what have you done to the point he felt the need to attack you?"

"Maybe, because I act differently than the original owner. You know how the original Alex usually was. She was a school bully. Violent and arrogant. She was also very manipulative, and that's why Alice hates her." Alex let out a heavy sigh again before looking up at the ceiling. "If Alice hates me, then Damian will also hate me." Alex looks at me coldly before saying. "Those gangsters are warning to threaten me."

"Well, this is troublesome." I scratch the back of my head as I thought of something.

"It is…" Alex agreed.

"I think Damian and Alice are going to pay more attention to me after this. I'm sure they will investigate who attacked their gangster and save you."

"Woah! I just realized that." She palmed her face with gritted teeth. "I hope I'm not making your task harder. Usually, meeting with another transmigrator is close to impossible." Alex looks at me apologetically. "Transmigrator tends to hold each other's back when they met. It really is bad luck!"

"Maybe it's a blessing in disguise. You never know!" I forced a smile when I hear her say bad luck. 'I hope it's not because of my curse of the lone wolf.'

"Yeah... I hope so." She replied while smiling at me before focusing on the television.

[Your bad luck only happens in the mission world so, it's not you.] Suddenly, the ball explains. [I've discussed with her system, so I can tell you this. She is a special case.]

'Special case?'

[ She has a criminal record. A heavy one]
