Behold! A Kronya chapter nobody asked for!
Kronya could have been an interesting character. Course I understand people hate her because she reminded everyone of Peri...But if you know me, then you know I LOVE Peri.
This is an attempt to further flesh our her character, and yes I will be making more chapters of her in the future.
Run from it, dread it, it arrives all the same.
Enjoy!
Weak.
Skinny.
Too dumb.
Hm, he had potential.
Monica was currently sitting in the lunchroom, scouting out potential "candidates" for her upcoming plan. She was going to turn as many students as possible into Demonic Beast. Right within the Church's walls!
They were all idiots, just as Solon said they were. She giggled to herself, this was wall too easy.
"Monica?"
She nearly jumped out of her skin, well, the skin she was using at least. She quickly turned to whoever called her name, glaring at them rudely. But it was just that Professor that Edelgard seemed so infatuated with. She threw on her best smile.
"Oh, Hi Professor! Come to get some lunch?"
The man in question simply stared at her. His gaze a little...Unsettling...Wait, could he...Have seen through her disguise? Does he know what she is?! Edelgard said he was impressive. But to think he could see through her lies. She began frantically looking around for a weapon, but there was nothing in sight. She slowly slid her right arm off the table, resting it on her thigh and reaching underneath her shirt for her cursed dagger. She knew Edelgard said not kill to the Professor or anyone in her class. But she wasn't going to sit here and be killed by this...
"Are you not hungry?"
She blinked. Stopping as she rested her hand on the handle of her dagger.
"Am I...Not hungry?"
The Professor nodded. "I noticed you didn't have any food. Are you feeling okay?"
She almost wanted to burst out laughing. Was no one here smart?
"Oh, I don't really eat a lot. Thank you for worrying about me though~" She'll try to remember that as she tears out this mans guts.
She stood up from her seat. "I must be going though. Edelgard wished to meet with me. See ya Professor~" The man stared at her.
"Thats actually why I'm here. Edelgard told me to inform you she was busy."
Her shoulders slouched a bit. Great. Now what was she gonna do.
"Then I guess I'll return to my dorm then." She turned to leave but the Professor stopped her.
"I was actually wondering you if wanted to have some tea together?"
Kronya stopped in her tracks and turned around. Was this man really the same Professor Edelgard respected?
"Tea huh...Very well, I shall humor you~" She knew she promised Edelgard she wouldn't hurt this man. But maybe just upsetting his stomach a little wasn't too bad, right?
The Professor had led her out to the courtyard, where he brought a tray of tea and snacks. Pouring her a cup before himself one. Sitting down across from her. Kronya watching his every move. Right now she wasn't sure if this man was truly as idiotic as she thought, or if he was testing her.
She watched him sip his tea, before he stared back at her. She glanced down at the cup of the liquid before her.
"I uh...Don't drink tea..."
The Professor nodded. "Neither did I until I came here. You should try it." He took another sip from his cup. Kronya looked between him and her cup again. Before sighing. She might as well make the best of it. Besides, building trust with the Professor only to brutally break it was a joyous sight she could not wait to see. She was sure even this stoned face moron could make such sweet horrid expressions.
She picked up the cup of liquid, sniffing it slightly before bringing it to her lips. Where her eyes widened upon tasting it. What was this!? It was...Delicious! They didn't have anything like this underground!
She drank it all in one gulp, placing the cup back down on its little plate. She looked at the Professor, who in turn had been watching her.
"More! Of whatever this is"
"Tea"
"Yes! More of that!"
The Professor smiled, a sweet, warm smile. The kind she wanted to cut up.
But first. More tea.
Drinking another cup she placed her cup down only for it to be refilled again by the Professor. Eventually she was pouring her own cups. And was graciously eating the snacks offered to her. She did not care if she was an unruly sight. When such delectable things were in front of her she couldn't hold herself back!
"Monica?"
She whipped her head around, cheeks full of tea cakes. Meeting with the confused expression of Edelgard. Kronya chewed the cakes and swallowed them.
"E-Edelgard! There you are, sorry we couldn't make our meeting."
The young empress looked between the red-head and her Professor. Who waved at her from his seat at the table.
"I take it the Professor has been taking care of you?"
Kronya's cheeks blushed slightly upon realizing the situation she found herself in.
"T-Thats right! He's been extremely nice. But I think its time we talk about what we were going to at the meeting!"
Before any of them could respond the bells rung. Indicating lunchtime was over and that it was time for class.
"Another time perhaps. Come Professor. Let us return to class." Edelgard said. The Professor nodding, servants coming to clean up the tea set.
He walked past them towards the class room. Leaving the two alone.
Edelgard waited until the Professor was out of ear shot before turning back to the red-head.
"Having a bit of fun, are we?"
Kronya nodded.
"Lots!"
Edelgard glared.
"I thought I told you to stay away from the Professor. You hurt him or anyone else in my class and all of your kind will pay."
"Weelll he invited me. So its really his fault~"
"Doesn't matter. Stay away from him." Edelgard turned to walk off towards the classroom.
"Does this mean the plan is off?" Kronya called out. Edelgard stopped and clenched her fist.
"No...It'll continue as scheduled. Just see to it there are no unnecessary deaths." And with that Edelgard disappeared out of sight.
Kronya sighed. What was that supposed to mean? All deaths are necessary! Every single one of them has to die! Even the Professor!
She turned to look at the crumbs left behind from her snack. Eyeing them as if they could come alive at any moment.
Especially the Professor...
Right...?
This was fun to write.
Until next time.
