Chapter 262 - I Got Bullied But Bullied Them Back (1/2)

Episode 255- I got bullied but bullied them back

Moniqua hesitated, she wanted to ask what favor Eugene asked from the Emperor, however, she said nothing in the end. Eugene paused for a second because she saw Moniqua's hesitant attitude. Though she might not be able to tell Moniqua what she had asked for, but other than that, everything else is fine.

”As a return for the favor I asked for, I am to be a good student, enrol in the academy, and graduate.” Eugene smiled lightly as she said this. Her polite smile was awkward of course, but Moniqua skipped past her polite behavior and focused on Eugene's words.

”He told you to enrol to the academy? Soon?” There was an unexplainable emotion in Moniqua's voice as she asked Eugene for confirmation.

Eugene nodded.

”That bastard…” She cussed lightly under her breath not knowing that her cuss was as loud as day for Eugene.

”What's wrong mother? Do you not want me to enrol to the academy?” Eugene asked, confused over Moniqua's reaction. She had thought that Moinqua would be happy that her children were fulfilling education, especially because even the Emperor insisted.

”Ah…” Moniqua looked away. Her eyes darted left and right before saying, ”It's a mix of happiness and sadness.”

Eugene mouthed an 'Oh.' Then did the Emperor insist because he didn't want her to run away too soon? She thought quietly. And here she thought it was the opposite.

”What did you do at the training grounds?” Moniqua asked as she sipped on her tea.

Eugene considered what she should tell Moniqua for a moment. In the end she decided to tell Moniqua the truth.

”I got bullied but bullied them back.” Her voice was neutral and chill, sounding as if nothing much happened.

”Is that so… WHAT?” Moniqua was nodding along with Eugene's words until her words truly registered in her mind. She choked on her tea and she grabbed her napkin to wipe her mouth!

”What did they do?!?” She asked again. Her voice 2 pitches higher.

Eugene pursed her lips, ”Bullied me.”

Moniqua's eyes widened in shock and asked, ”And what did you do?”

Eugen nodded, ”Beat them to a pulp.” She brought her hands up and showed the trigger motion. Her trigger motion did not register in Moniqua's head as she could only focus on Eugene's hands that looked like a fist.

Moniqua gulped and calmed down, ”Well… I trust in my daughter's abilities. ” If Eugene said she beat them to a pulp, then she must've beaten them to a pulp. She reckoned the people Eugene beat up didn't have a single tooth left.

”What did you do after?” Moniqua asked.

”I said my goodbyes.”

Moniqua was quiet this time as she stared at Eugene with a complicated face, ”Yes, if you head to the academy soon, you have to say goodbyes…” She dragged her words as she glanced down at her feet. It was obvious to even Eugene that Moniqua did not want such a day to come. Well, hopefully, what she came for will cheer Moniqua up.

Eugene smiled at Moniqua, ”Well….”
