Your Not So Ordinary Villain

Chapter 162 Accused



With the woman's insistence, they went to personally visit the man and because they were also curious, they agreed. They got a hold of Cygnus's schedule and tried to wait for him but for some reason, the man did not attend any of his classes. They then learned that ever since the Magus Maximus called for him, he hadn't joined any of his classes.

They had no choice but to send him a message through the guard that was guarding the entrance to the Hall of Saints. Cygnus couldn't help but grin when he received the letter requesting for him to meet the three of them.

"What is it?" The Magus asked after he saw that his disciple was grinning.

Cygnus handed him the letter, "I've met Arean a while back and she was accusing me of something that happened from one of their previous missions. I think the reason why they wrote that letter is to prove that I am indeed the person she is accusing me of."

"You should go and fix it. I don't want any issues to arise while you are my disciple," the Magus frowned.

"Alright, I'll go meet them later." Cygnus obediently nodded then he continued with what he was reading and doing it at the same time.

After an hour, Cygnus left to look for these three people who were requesting for his presence. The Magus Maximus sent his familiar to listen on what they would talk about. As far as he could remember, Arean was the disciple of Archmage Ragus and the last mission she had was the mission to bring back the nephew of Grand Mage Jagan.

Cygnus left the Hall of Saints and saw three people waiting for him. He also felt the presence of the Magus Maximus's familiar who followed him. He was then secretly delighted that these people were paying him much attention.

"Miss Arean, why did you call for me?" Cygnus walked up to them. He eyed the other two people with her.

"We have something to talk about with you," she calmly answered. "Why don't we go to a more comfortable place where we can talk without any distraction."

"Alright," he nodded and followed them to an empty room. Arean locked the door and glared at the man.

"What can you say?" she then turned her attention to the two who came with them.

Alastor and Meliore looked at the person in front of them but they can't find any resemblance he had with the owner of that bakeshop. This person looked younger and just as the rumors say, he was the splitting image of Duke Ulysses Ginehart. Alastor looked at Arean with a frown.

"He is nothing like the guardian of Ezio," his voice was sharp and deep.

He couldn't believe that he would even trust the woman's words when she was already crazy as it is. Ever since he saw the young man coming out from the Hall of Saints, he already knew that he was not related to the incident at Moonvale. From the beginning, it was impossible for the man to come to the capital and even more so to become a mage of the tower.

"What are you talking about?" Arean was taken aback by the reaction of the man. "He is that person!" She pointed at Cygnus. "Look closely!" She insisted.

Alastor sighed and shook his head. The woman was acting crazy again. He thought that she would behave after the Moonvale mission but it seemed like her silence was only a short phase. She was getting back to that crazy time once again.

"May I ask what Miss Arean is talking about? Ever since she first met me, she has been accusing me of things I didn't do. I don't even know where this Moonvale is!" He sighed with furrowed brows as he looked genuinely confused as to what was happening.

"Don't act like you don't know anything! Stop using tricks to deceive us!" Arean walked up to him and started to point her finger.

She pushed her in anger so Cygnus could only take a step back. He looked at the woman in surprise at what she did. Arean was seething in anger because she believed that he was using some kind of trick to hide who he really was.

"Arean, what are you doing?" Meliore was surprised when she saw what the latter was doing. She stepped forward in haste and pulled the woman away.

Arean squirmed but Meliore's hold on her was tight. She was still fighting against the other woman and was shouting profanities at her. Her anger was over the top that if the room wasn't sound proofed, everyone who were passing by would hear her cursing.

"Enough!" Alastor's booming voice filled the room and this stopped Arean. She was breathing hard as she looked at them like she was going to kill them all.

"All of you are the same! How can you not see that that person is only using some kind of magic to deceive you! He is not a Ginehart, he is a monster!" She continued to shout.

In her perspective, Cygnus was indeed Ezio's guardian and yet in the eyes of both Alastor and Meliore, he was Rigel Ginehart. A young man with short black hair and black eyes. His looks were of that a man in his early twenties which was far younger than the person they meet back at Moonvale.

"Will you stop this nonsense, Arean. You are just embarrassing yourself. If Ezio's guardian would really come to the capital then there was no way that he would become a mage of the tower, especially the disciple of the Magus Maximus." Alastro rubbed his head and tightly shut his eyes.

She really had the guts to accuse the Magus's disciple and even had more guts to point her fingers at the duke's son. She was really becoming out of control and he didn't want to get caught up with her nonsense.

He looked behind him and smiled apologetically at Cygnus. He then looked at the woman and gave her a glare. He was clearly wasting his time on this nonsense.

"Alastor is right, Arean. You can't keep on embarrassing yourself like this. That person is not that man. You are just being delusional right now." Meliore finally spoke and sighed. She couldn't afford to offend the man too.

"No matter what you say, I am not the man you are talking about. I have never been to Moonvale and I have never met any of you until now. My patience is not that long and if you continue to accuse me like this, I won't be polite even though you are a woman." This time the grin on his face disappeared.

"We apologize for our comrade's mistake. She isn't fully recovered yet so she's making up stories." Alastor was the one who apologized to which Arean protested.

"Why are you apologizing? You shouldn't because I am telling the truth!" She still insisted but the two people didn't believe her.

"It doesn't matter. I'll leave her to you then. If my master learns that she will not stop from her accusations, he might do something to her and I don't want that to happen. I'll just consider this as a blunder on her part," Cygnus fixed his clothes that got wrinkled after he was pushed before he took a step towards the door.

The room temperature suddenly dropped down as the particles of sharp tipped ice slowly formed and went straight towards the master. Without even giving the woman a look, a wall of ice appeared to block her attack.

"I'll let this go for now but next time you try to attack me, I won't hold back," his voice was as cold as the temperature in the room.

Alastor stood in front of Arean and stopped her from doing anything. The wall of ice disappeared and so did Cygnus. He was done playing with her so he would go instead and take a nap. That confrontation made him feel tired.
