AAMON'S REIGN

CHAPTER 4

 

The bullies turned around and were taken aback by the sight of a stunning girl with sleek brown curly hair and pretty white bow on her hair. She applied a glossy lip product that gave her lips a radiant glow. 

Bruce and his gang were captivated by her presence, never expecting to encounter such a stunning girl at their school. 

Aamon couldn't tear his eyes away from her. He blinked repeatedly, almost questioning his own senses. Yet, he couldn't deny the undeniable truth—this girl before him was undeniably real. 

Bruce quickly abandoned Aamon and approached the girl with an inappropriate grin, assuming she would be just another target of his usual mistreatment. 

The girl continued to smile, unfazed by Bruce's presence. She persisted in asking them what they were up to, but Bruce simply whistled in response. 

"I should be asking you that question, miss beautiful," Bruce asked in a crude manner, much to the girl's annoyance, "May I know your name?" He inquired, and without waiting for the girl's response, he gently reached out to caress her cheek.

“Were you asking for my name? Well, here’s my answer.” The girl spoke with a determined tone as she delivered a powerful blow to Bruce's stomach, causing him to lose his balance.

She firmly grasped his hand and swiftly maneuvered him onto the ground, swiftly delivering a forceful blow to his stomach. The impact was so intense that Bruce let out a piercing scream. 

"Help!" Bruce called out to his gang, prompting them to swiftly converge on the girl. Little did they know, this impulsive decision would prove to be their downfall.

The young girl confidently flips her hair before swiftly incapacitating one of the bullies with a well-placed strike to the neck. She then swiftly dispatched another one with a powerful blow to the back, causing significant damage to his bones.

Her exceptional skills allowed her to effortlessly defeat her opponents in less than a minute, setting her apart from the typical girls they encountered. She possesses formidable fighting prowess and exudes an undeniable fierceness.

As she noticed everyone sprawled on the ground, she approached Bruce with a cheerful expression. She then wore off the smile and revealed her bloodshot eyes to everyone.

She glanced at Bruce, and a wave of terror washed over him. The radiant smile that once graced her face had vanished, replaced by a haunting visage that seemed otherworldly. 

She delivered a forceful kick to his face, then cautiously lowered herself to his side, her leg still hovering near his face. With a mixture of anger and restraint, she resisted the urge to inflict further harm on him.

“Well, you see that guy over there?” the woman said, referring to Aamon, before she added, “Apparently, he's actually my cousin, and I've been hearing rumors about the way you've been treating him. So I came here to personally give you a little warning about it.” As she continued speaking, one of the boys decided to launch a surprise attack from behind. 

Without even glancing, she seized him by the throat, gripping it so tightly that the boy's breath was cut off. He erupted into violent coughing, as if his life hung in the balance.

"Please refrain from engaging in any form of bullying towards him. I want to emphasize this once again. It is absolutely crucial that you do not bully Aamon. If you choose to disregard this warning, be prepared for me to administer even more severe consequences." The young woman spoke.

Bruce's expression turned pale, and he was taken aback, completely caught off guard by the unexpected strength of the seemingly delicate girl who single-handedly defeated him and his gang.

"I–I’m sorry, okay? I seriously regret bullying him before and sincerely apologize for the harm I caused your cousin. Just please don’t hurt us anymore.” Bruce pleaded for forgiveness, and the girl responded with a smile before shifting her gaze back to Aamon.

"Hey Aamon, what do you say about this? Should I let these punks go?" The girl inquired, but Aamon was left speechless, his astonishment rendering him unable to respond. 

"It would seem that my cousin wanted me to decide to my cousin, and I'll set you free." She told Bruce to quickly beg for Aamon's forgiveness, fearing the girl's wrath. 

Only moments ago, he was the instigator, tormenting Aamon relentlessly. Now, he finds himself humbled, sprawled on the ground with a girl's feet pressed against his face, offering apologies to someone he once considered insignificant. 

He couldn't fathom the fact that he found himself pleading for Aamon's forgiveness after harboring such intense animosity towards him mere moments ago. 

The girl defiantly spat in his face and quickly moved her feet away from him. She experienced a sense of contentment as she delivered her retribution to the bullies, and she intended to administer further consequences if they failed to amend their ways. 

Bruce and his gang hastily fled the scene, eager to avoid another confrontation with the formidable girl, leaving her and Aamon observing their hasty retreat. 

Glancing behind them, they noticed Venice still standing, trembling with unease. In order to steer clear of any potential confrontation with the peculiar girl, they mustered a forced smile before departing from the roof deck as well. 

The girl paid no attention to her, simply expressing her disapproval as she approached Aamon, who remained astonished by her impressive combat skills and her ability to defeat the infamous bullies. 

She extended her hand forward, but Aamon refused to accept it. Aamon weared a puzzled expression as he wracked his brain to recall any familiarity with the girl, only to realize he had no recollection of ever meeting her. 

He had never encountered her previously, and she effortlessly beaten those bullies on his behalf, even going as far as asserting that they were related as cousins. He hesitated to accept her claim, but the girl noticed his skepticism and responded with a warm smile. 

"You seem to have some doubts and skepticism, which is, of course, understandable," the girl said, causing Aamon's expression to become even more perplexed. It was as though she had been able to read Aamon’s mind. 

"Well, to begin with. My name is Ayushirideshna, but you can refer to me as Deshna for short. I've come here because of your parents, Aamon Silverine." The young woman spoke. 

Aamon was taken aback when the girl addressed him by his full name and revealed that she had come because of his parents.

He had never received any information about his parents, so he felt relieved that someone was finally there to fill in the gaps. He suddenly had hope that this Deshna could fill him the answers he was yearning for to know. And thefirst question that Aamon eagerly asked was... 

"Well then, Deshna, can you tell me about my parents and their whereabouts?"
