Celia: After Dying in the Apocalypse, I Live Once Again!

Chapter 3: Kill Without Getting Caught.

*Celia’s POV*

Oh God, my girls are glaring daggers at this dude… Ria, you too? Sorry dude, you might be an asshole, but I shall pray for your soul once you’re dead…

Asshole: “What do you say, Princess Celia? I am sure that I am a good match for you.” He reiterated.

Celia: “Sorry, but I am not interested, good day.” I reply with a warm smile, before walking away.

The only problem is that this asshole grabbed my hand. He grabbed my hand very hard too… Girls… please don’t kill him… Yet.

Asshole: “Do you not understand your position? Us getting married would be for the best.” He demanded.

Celia: “Do I look like a violent person? Well, I am, and if you do not release my hand right this instant, I will kill you.” I say with an angry tone.

Asshole: “Kill me? You? I’d sooner believe that pigs will learn to fly.” He said with a laugh.

Looking around me, it was just my girls, and I couldn’t sense anyone else watching. As such, I broke his hand completely by squeezing my hand. While he was on the ground, yelling in pain, I took out the dagger that Nia bestowed me, and stabbed him with it.

You see, this dagger doesn’t hurt people, it just reaps their souls. The second my dagger stabbed him, his soul was sent to the afterlife. As his dead body slumped onto the ground, I wondered who this dude even was…

Lia: “So, the story will be that he demanded your hand in marriage, but you refused. And after you refused, he got violent, and then you killed him in defense.” She proposed.

Nia: “Sounds good to me, and don’t worry, this explanation will work out, as it is the truth.” She agreed.

Ria: “I’ll handle the body.” She said with a giggle.

Why’re you giggling about me killing someone!? Ah, right, I forgot that these three girls are what you would call, “normal” in any sense of the word.

With that stupid idiot’s body in tow, we walked over to the infirmary. Ria then dumped his body off on them, and we left without any further explanation other than the one that we already came up with.

As the infirmary was on the opposite side of where our estate is, it took us thirty minutes to get back to it. When we got to the entrance of it, we were completely blocked off by some random people, and their knights.

Celia: “May I ask why you all have blocked access to my estate?” I ask with a raised eyebrow.

One of the noblemen walked forward. He didn’t seem to be a student, and rather looked to be a teacher. Ah, so I killed that asshole, and then they went crying to a teacher? How very funny.

Teacher: “Ladies, these fine folks have stated that your group killed their friend, Edward Leretia. Are their words true?” He asked.

He was a prince!? Fuck… No wonder he thought that he was worthy of me. Eh, he was still an asshole, so I don’t really care.

Celia: “Edward demanded that I marry him, but I refused. And when I refused, he got violent. I warned him that if he didn’t let go of my hand, then I would kill him. He didn’t let go, and instead increased the strength in his grip.” I explain.

Teacher: “And then you killed him?” He asked.

Celia: “Yes, I did.” I answer.

Teacher: “This… will be a problem, Ladies…” He said with a sigh.

Lia: “And why is that?” She asked.

Teacher: “He was a prince, and I highly doubt that any of you Ladies are part of a powerful enough family to get out of this safely.” He answered.

Celia: “I am literally the sole princess of this kingdom, though?” I say with a raised eyebrow.

Teacher: “Princess? My apologies then, I shall leave the outcome of this event, to your discretion.” He said with a bow, before walking away.

Wait… did this dude just give me the go-ahead to kill all of these people? What a nice teacher! Now then, as I looked at this unruly group, I wonder how I should kill them.

Nobleman: “Do you truly think you, a Princess, will be enough to survive all of us? You won’t be charged in this kingdom, but come with us quietly to ours, where you will be charged for the murder of the prince!” He exclaimed.

Celia: “Girls, please do try to not get blood all over the estate, okay?” I ask with a sigh, while looking at the three women on my side.

And without me even having to move, the entire group was slaughtered in minutes. Aw… they still got blood everywhere. Shit. I guess that it would have been hard to not get blood everywhere. I shouldn’t ask the impossible of my girls, it seems.

Before going inside my estate, I took out a contact crystal that Yona gave me. This is just another thing that she stole from my dungeon. It’s basically a phone…

Celia: “Yona? Can you hear me?” I ask.

Yona: “Yes, my dear daughter. Now, what can I help you with?” She asked with a warm tone.

Celia: “The prince, Edward Leretia, tried to force me to marry him. I gave him a warning and everything, but I still had to kill him in the end.” I explain.

Yona: “Was… was he the only one you killed?” She asked with a serious tone.

Celia: “Personally? Yes. But a group of knights, and noblemen blocked off our estate. Once again, I killed them as well. Though, the girls did that, I just watched.” I reply.

Yona: “Did you really just start a war with our neighboring kingdom, on your first day of the academy!?” She yelled.

Celia: “It would seem so, I am sorry about that. I wasn’t aware who he was, as he just demanded that I marry him.” I say with a remorseful tone.

Yona: “He probably thought that you knew who he was. Regardless, do not worry, I’ve been meaning to go to war with that kingdom for a very, very long time.” She replied.

Celia: “Really?” I ask.

Yona: “Yes, and you’ve just given me the perfect excuse to do so. Were there any witnesses?” She asked.

Celia: “For killing the prince, no. But there was a teacher here, though he left before we slaughtered this group. I think that he is on our side.” I answer.

Yona: “Even better! Ah, dear daughter of mine, why do you keep giving me so many wonderful things in life?” She said with a happy tone.

Celia: “Luck, maybe? Anyway, goodbye Mom, love you.” I reply with a giggle.

Yona: “Love you too, dear.” She replied.

I told the girls that Yona gave us a free pass on killing these people. I guess what Nia said about it all working out, was correct. As we head into our house, I saw Ria order the maids to clean up the bodies, gore, and blood.

Man, now I’ve started a war… I need to be more careful in the future. Who knows when I will step on a land-mine, that I cannot defuse…

Before heading to bed, we all got clean in the bath. Even though I didn’t get any blood on me, the girls still insisted that they clean every nook and cranny of my body.

While I slept, I had that terrible dream yet again. Now I just have to make sure to remember what happens in it when I wake up…
