My Bothersome Life - Chapter 375

“There’s no way I can win against that,” the shadow cancelled her spell.

Everyone who was chained to prevent them from escaping the performance got up from their seats. Since the exit was near the stage, they walked down the stairs. While I wished everything ended here, Luke stood in front of the stage to point out all the mistakes I made. My head dropped towards the ground as the noise from the instruments were replaced with his criticisms.

“You know you were late in one of the beats. Your arm wasn’t stable for one move while you were half a degree from the angles you should have,” he wanted me to repeat the same moves again.

I groaned as I opened my arms into that position where it slightly tethered to the point it was barely unnoticeable unless you focused on that certain arm. I gritted my teeth as I continued to hold the position while Luke added some additional pointers. Meanwhile, the shadow began to pity me as she watched me struggle through fixing my mistakes.

“Rika, your arm is still not stable,” he wanted me to stay in that position until my arm could hold itself up properly.

“Her head is slightly tilted as well,” Alex joined in.

“I’m not doing this anymore,” I blew up.

“So what if my arm is slightly a degree off? It’s not the end of the world,” I pointed out we were free from them now.

“You’re not doing this to Shelly or Miliana,” I complained.

“Your dancing is pretty poor,” Charles smirked to agree with them.

“But the shadow doesn’t think it’s that horrible, do you?” I asked her.

“I think I should give up on dancing,” she repeatedly mumbled, feeling more dejected.

“No, no. Didn’t you say you practiced really hard?” I waved my hands to dismiss her thoughts.

“Maybe if you had better teachers, you could improve faster,” I tried to cheer her up.

“Luke can help you with the pointers,” I was hoping he would change his target to her.

“If you tell us where you came from and how to stop the poking, I can point out your mistakes while teaching Rika,” Luke seemed like he wasn’t going to let me go for this.

“You lead the orchestra with the violin, do you not? I can also give you some pointers since I have to do it for Rika anyways,” he turned to the other shadow.

Both the shadows nodded their heads, not knowing what they were placing themselves into. We all gathered around the stage to question why they were doing this and how they came here. Meanwhile, Charles had to keep Miliana from trying to kill them every few seconds. The dancing shadow revealed, “we used to perform for the monsters. They resembled you. But they chased us out, saying to come here to perform in front of the people who have the indicator. So our entire circus moved.”

“Circus?” I gasped.

“Each of us have our own roles. With the total of six members we have the musician, dancer, magician, swordsman, jugglers and the host,” the musician explained.

“Were they perhaps s-class monsters like um Ailes?” I thought of the first reincarnated person that came to my head.

“Ailes is the host! He should be somewhere nearby,” her voice sweetened.

“Are you sure we should stay here?” I turned to Luke.

With s-class monsters being involved in this situation, the whole picture had changed. All of us froze as we didn’t see any of the shadows as a threat anymore. However, the dancer guiltily looked away like there was something else they didn’t reveal yet.

“Let me guess, some of your team members are extremely violent,” I laughed, hoping it wasn’t the case.

“How did you know?” The dancer seemed surprised.

“I was hoping I was wrong,” My head dropped.

“Ailes planned out a schedule to when each of us should perform. We’re the opening act while the others should start from tomorrow,” the musician added.

“Like how violent?��� I continued to ask.

“Like some flaming swords being thrown around or explosions. Sometimes animals are used as part of the act and escaping from something,” the musician recalled.

“That’s it! I’m not staying here anymore!” Miliana exploded.

“If I stay here then I’ll die,” she shouted to blame the shadows.

Before she could vent more of her anger towards them, both the shadows disappeared while the sunlight began to pour in from the windows. It was nice to know that we were being spared during the day. Slamming the doors open, Miliana stomped while directly heading to the teacher’s office.

“There’s s-class monsters here and you’re not extending our leave?” She screamed at the teachers.

“S-class monsters?” the teacher gulped, becoming the first victim from us.

“That’s right!” Miliana crossed her arms while looking at them with scorn.

“And this s-class monster is stronger than the other ones. He’s the oldest and the leader of all of them,” I revealed to the others for the first time.

“You can trust me! I almost got kidnapped by one of them,” I added.

The whole office went silent, all the teachers staring at my direction. Miliana was too shocked, almost fainting from the news. There was no way I was going to stay inside the school when this night would be worse than the others since the opening act was finished.
