“I-It was me?” Anna said as she slowly started walking away from the tied-up Evelynn.
For some reason, she seemed to be undergoing shock, unsure of how such a thing was even possible in the first place.
“Of course, it was you! Don’t you remember fucking making me drink all those potions!” Evelynn furiously replied.
She was having some probably containing all of her emotions inside herself as she was on the cusp of exploding, and for good reasons.
She had just been tortured and possibly scarred for life, who knows what was inside all of those potions. She had probably gotten few other problems from it. Those potions were also all black which didn’t give any confidence to Evelynn that they were good potions with positive effects.
Still, there was no way for her to find out, so she kept her mouth shut.
“I made you drink potions? When… How?” She mumbled as she started to walk back even more.
“D-Don’t tell me that again?” Anna whispered in a quiet tone.
No one had been able to hear her, however, they could see that she was in shock.
“Who made me normal again?” She asked as she looked at both Aiden and Evelynn wondering who had managed to bring her back to her normal self.
Evelynn was still tied up on the wall as she pointed toward Aiden with one of her hands, only moving her fingers.
Anna immediately locked eyes with Aiden. She seemed incredibly interested in him, even more than before.
“Uh… yeah it was me, is there a problem?” Aiden asked, slowly moving away from her. This whole thing was getting scarier by the minute.
“How!” She shouted instantly. “How did you make me go back, how did you make him disappear?”
Aiden frowned as he couldn’t understand a single word that was coming out of her mouth at the moment.
“What are you talking about, who’s ‘him’?”
Anna put her hand on her mouth as she couldn’t believe that she had really said that.
It seemed that something quite important had slipped out of her mouth and Aiden wouldn’t let it go no matter what.
He wanted to know about it.
“Just forget about what I said,” She muttered a few seconds later after gathering her calm. “The important is that I’m alive, who cares about anything else, ahaha.”
Her laugh was extremely forced as if wanting to change the subject, however, Aiden wasn’t duped by it.
Aiden immediately noticed that she was acting extremely weird and this time, he wouldn’t let it go. He had ignored a lot of things ever since he had arrived in this world, but he wanted to know, he was quite curious at the moment.
“What person were you talking about, who’s ‘him’?” Aiden repeated, making it obvious that changing the subject wouldn’t work.
However, before he could even hear the answer coming from her mouth, there was still someone who was tied up to a wall.
“I also want to know, but can’t someone just detach me?” Evelynn asked with a polite tone.
She wasn’t that impatient as she knew that the whole situation was now back to normal.
However, when she saw that it was Anna who was about to detach her, she felt deep fear install in her heart.
It seemed that the events that had just occurred had shocked her deeply, right to her core.
“N-Not you, don’t even get close to me. Aiden, I want Aiden to do it,” she muttered as it was clear that there was a lot of fear in her eyes.
Aiden had noticed and immediately went toward her, detaching her and picking her up in his arms not wanting Evelynn to get hurt by falling on the ground.
A little blush appeared on Evelynn’s face, but it soon disappeared as Aiden let her go. She wasn’t hurt to the point that she couldn’t walk anymore, so there was no point for Aiden to keep her in his arms even if she had wished to.
Anna watched this whole scene from a small distance, understanding that what she had done hadn’t been quite appreciated by Evelynn.
“I-I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to. It wasn’t me who did this, I can promise you… I would have never done this,” Anna said, clearly feeling bad about the actions that she had just executed.
Still, her answers were quite weird as she made it extremely clear that it wasn’t her fault, or rather, that it wasn’t her who had done any of those things.
“Then who was it?!” Evelynn shouted. “Stupid bitch, you think this is going to change anything.”
Evelynn’s reaction was normal since she could have died if such a thing continued. Imagine what would have happened if she had been fed those potions for a complete week.
There were good chances that she would have died.
“I can’t tell you who it is,” Anna said, seemingly not wanting to reveal who was the person that she had called ‘him’.
“Why can’t you tell us? I’m sure we will be able to help you if something like this happens again.”
Anna shook her head as she couldn’t even bother talking about that right now, she had something else on her mind.
“Tell me how you fixed what happened, I need to know,” she said grabbing one of Aiden’s hands.
Aiden looked at her grabbing his hand and suddenly got an idea. He had noticed how desperate she was, so why wouldn’t she just exploit that as much as he could?
“Sure, I’ll tell you, but you need to explain to me… no to us, what just happened.”
Anna backed off instantly hearing that condition.
“You really don’t want to tell us, huh? Well whatever it’s your choice, you’ll never what happened for you to get yourself under control once again,” Aiden said as he turned around grabbing Evelynn’s arm. “Come, we don’t to be here anymore.”
This was obviously a bluff as Aiden still needed another vial of the mana-restricting potion. However, he still wanted to see the reaction that would be coming from Anna.
“W-Wait! I… I’ll tell you guys, so please don’t leave just yet.”
