Even After Death

Despite her frail state, Jacqueline was over the moon at the thought that the person she hated the most was going to die.

Ever since their lives were switched, peace could never settle between them.

Only one out of two could survive.

Jacqueline knew how heavy the consequences were considering what she had done.

The worst case possible would be her dying a tragic death.

Either way, it wouldn't make much difference.

It would just be death.

Even if she beat Olivia, she would have to deal with the Fordhams, the Heaths, and the Millers.

There was nowhere else she could escape to.

Everything was going as she had planned.

She intentionally promised Olivia to confess everything to buy some time.

Meanwhile, Olivia didn't dare to act recklessly.

She focused intently.

There were many types of spells, and different people could cultivate different species of poisonous bugs.

Still, regardless of the species, the murder could be committed only if the bug touched human skin.

As long as she could dodge before the bug touched her skin, she would be fine.

Olivia was in full defense mode.

Her face, arms, and neck were exposed to the air.

"Oh really?" She remained calm, staring into Jacqueline's eyes.

Suddenly, Olivia sprinted forward.

Now, her only and the best shield was Jacqueline! Before the bug flew toward her, she quickly grabbed Jacqueline to block the bug's way.

Right then, Olivia finally had a glimpse of Deathsting Bug's appearance.

It was a bug with an appearance of beyond scientific knowledge.

Its body was built of six wings eight legs and two antennae.

Two fangs were hanging from its big mouth, and its head was the size of a baby's fist.

That pair of fly-like eyes shone in a glossy green color.

Olivia had never seen such a creature before.

The mere sight of it was gross.

As the Deathsting Bug bumped into Jacqueline's stomach, Olivia quickly grabbed a torture tool prepared by Leia and flung it in the bug's direction.

The bug hit the ground.

When it was going to fly up again, she stomped it without holding back.

Green liquid splattered across the floor, and the room began to reek of rotten smell.

It was repulsive.

Olivia almost fainted because of the smell.

She wondered if the enemy had fed it with hundreds of stink bugs.

The foul smell was way too intense! The sound of the bell rang again.

Willow and Ethan rushed into the room hurriedly.

"Liv, are you alright?" Olivia lifted her foot.

The bug's blood was glued to her shoe.

Even though it didn't touch her skin, she felt awful.

"I'm fine.

I just took care of a big bug," she cooed.

Ethan sighed in relief. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

"Thank goodness.

You got me there." Willow came up to her, gesturing, "Don't move.

It's poisonous." Common poison wouldn't scare Olivia, but it could be rare poison.

It was best to be cautious.

"Okay, got it." Olivia was being very careful.

After making sure that it wouldn't come into contact with her skin, she let her foot down.

Ethan called someone over to fetch a full set of clothing and shoes for her.

That kind of bug was definitely fatally poisonous.

Just a single touch might expose one to danger.

Before he came closer to her, he noticed that she had slowly lost her smile.

Her expression seemed solemn.

He had a bad feeling about it.

"Liv, what's wrong?" Her complexion looked bad.

She could feel it.

There was something else on her neck! She didn't know what bug it was and didn't dare to remove it.

She stammered, "I..." Before she could finish, her neck stung, and she lost consciousness.

" Liv! w
