"Ah.. so bored."

All I can see right now in my lying state is white ceiling. After the crown game, they gave all the regular their own personal room. Not many things put here. This room reminded me of a simple hotel room. But I still glad we have one room each 'cause that means there are no space need to share. Right now, I really need enough time to think on my own.

If we think more, the reason I could get away from that scythe is rather mysterious. Was that a kind of superpower? Maybe, I was similar to Bam. Have something I good at in this universe. And my power appeared suddenly just like him.

Am I really a talented irregular? If I even have a power, no matter how small it is, isn't it already a blessing?

Two days ago I just a normal high school girl. Yesterday, I was thrown to this universe. Today, I'm a girl who try really hard to survive. Everyday is a survival mission for me. But not today. Today we had a day off. No fighting, no killing. Such a wonderful day.

Before, I thought this kind of day was boring. Now, I even wish for that days to come back.

Feeling stuffed, I decided to get a fresh air. The journey to the balcony isn't really far. But in the corridor, I met someone interesting.

Endorsi Jahad, one of Jahad Princesses.

Jahad princesses was famous for not only their bloodline. Their attractive appearance was made half of that rumours. Some drops of blood from King of the Tower is what makes them stronger. But I didn't know about physic. Maybe being a beauty also one of their qualifications.

I tried to avoid her with not glancing, even pulled out a poker face. All of that turn to waste in an instant.

" Your match yesterday was quite unexpected." said Endorsi. Well, you are speaking to me is more unexpected.

" Em.. Y-yes. I think so too." D*mn. Can I be more honest? Wait, she said what? Unexpected? Sh*t, now another eyes on me.

Endorsi turned her body. Face to face with me. She looked elegant and dignified. And I, here, barely standing. From head to toe, we weren't comparable at all.

She tugging her lips upward. " I want to congratulate you for attracting a person like me. You know, I'm not someone who easily interested in something. But you passed the category."

I couldn't give her any response. After she said that, Endorsi walk away passed beside me.

" I look forward to your performance. " Footsteps could be heard behind slowly getting farther. With silent followed, I still couldn't move.

Surely, trouble get nearer.

Frustrated with what happened, I quickly went to the balcony.

I grabbed the door knob and turned it.

Just a few steps. A few steps for clearer mind.

The door already slightly open when I heard someone, no--two people's voices.

"Mr. Knight, I'm really glad to have a day off." said a very familiar voice.

" And what's the reason, miss?" another very familiar voice chimed in.

" Because I finally can be together with you." Emm, sorry princess. But you two already lovey-dovey everyday and everytime at that. I even feel like a third wheel.

"Me too. Just two of us. In this balcony. Served by this scenery. I hope time can stop right now. So I can--"

Click

Closing the door as quite as possible. I can't hear more of that or I will get goosebumps because of cringey conversations. It's looks like balcony not an available option right now.

I REALLY hope for peace to come at me right now.

I chose to go back to my room. Halfway through the long corridor, a door beside me suddenly opened.

" Heyyaaaa kiiidddooo~~~ Do... you... want.. to.. drink... withhh meee?"

A woman with black bob hair came. I remember she was one of the last person who passed the veil. She got close to me and grabbed my hand. Her face flushed red and her movements very sluggish. Little force can make her fall.

" Let~ have~ soomme~ fuuunnn~" Without waiting for my reply, she pulled me to her room.

Alcohol smell surrounded me. Bottles stucked in the corner but a few already opened and scattered around the room. I was almost vomiting.

I was helpless in front of her. She brought me to the floor then we sat side to side.

"Youu~ little~~ girl~~. Let's.. taste.. the.. heaven.. TOGETHER!" she offered me a bottle.

"I am sorry. I'm still underaged." being a good girl I am, kindly refused her.

This woman whom I even didn't know her name retreated her hand and gulped so much alcohol in one go.

Suddenly she turned into me and with a serious face she said, "Girl, why you came here?"

I was shocked. Why she suddenly change?

"N-no idea. I just came here."

Hearing my answer, she suddenly laughed.

"Hahahaha... You young people really absurd nowadays. So easygoing. Do not care what danger await in your life. Always charging forward." the woman looked up. Her eyes saw far and lips was making a slightly sad smile.

I knew this woman. She won't go far in the tower. Maybe another reader does not remember her. But at least one person never forget someone's existence in this world.

She gulped another big shot until fell asleep in the floor. She didn't ask anymore question and also didn't demand me to do anything.

Actually I could go whenever I get bored. I didn't do so.

Desperation, hopelessness, loneliness

Maybe my existence can eased a bit of her burden. Which we know didn't help much.
