The Alien King's Alluring Obsession
Chapter 55

Edna

My stomach made an embarrassing noise again. The alienation from the other people in the cafeteria was very obvious.

My eyes stopped on the trash can again. I could see that the food in the trashcan was similar to the one left in the metal trays.

My new enemies must have tried all their best to keep me hungry and humiliated.

My stomach was contracting from the hunger. I didn't have the chance to be picky.

I looked up at the two ladies behind the counter.

"Give me anything that is available." I said.

I wanted to give every single person involved in this little game they did with the food ten slaps each.

Alas, I wouldn't get my wish.

No one was trying to oppress me directly. There was little I could do.

If I tried to replace an issue with the current situation I was in, things will not be in my favor. These ladies would come up with numerous excuses for their behavior.

None of those excuses would involve their deliberate show of power.

I don't like how passive I was in this situation. I can't really fight back.

Firstly, my supernatural power was suppressed. Secondly, reporting to Madam Tayo wasn't going to bear any fruit.

Nobody was bullying me directly so I would have no moral ground to stand on if I go to her.

They were lucky. As long as they didn't face me directly, I was willing to endure and let things go.

Unfortunately, the more I tried to stay away from trouble, the closer it got.

After the two ladies dished the food at the bottom of the trays for me, I found an empty seat.

I settled down and started shoveling the food into my mouth.

The leftovers were still warm so I had an easier time getting it into my stomach.

Footsteps approached me.

The person approaching me stopped in front of my table. I didn't look up, I continued focusing on my food.

Food was more important.

"Well, well, well. If it isn't Miss proud and pampered." A shrill voice drawled.

I didn't reply or react.

I don't know why these people like looking for trouble. I was on my own, but they decided to disturb my peace.

When a rabid dog barks and snaps its teeth at me, as the bigger person, I don't have to bite back.

"Edna, I am speaking to you." The owner of the feet in front of me spat, "Are you deaf?"

I treated the person like she was air.

My attitude seemed to annoy the person before me. Her breathing became heavier.

Suddenly, something landed on my hair before dripping downwards.

I looked at the things that fell to the floor. It was porridge, orange juice and slices of some unknown crop.

My brain didn't catch up with what my eyes were seeing.

Finally, my brain seem to catch up with what just happened.

Fury from nowhere consumed my heart like poison. My eyes stung.

My fingers dug into my palms.

"You idiot!" I yelled as I rose to my feet.

I wanted to tie this rude lady up and give her the beating of her life.

Red vines sprouted out of nothing before wrapping around the lady that dumped food on my head.

The vines climbed her body until it got to her neck. The vines tightened around her neck.

I took a good look at the lady. I didn't recognize her at all but she has to be among the group of people that decided to make hating me their lifelong pursuit.

Her face started to have an abnormal flush. She gasped and breathed heavily. She couldn't inhale properly.

I didn't have any pity for her, not even an ounce of it.

"Stop her. Edna has gone savage." I heard Madeline's voice shout.

Murmurs of agreement rose from the other ladies in the cafeteria. Before I could blink, numerous superpowers rushed towards me.

I didn't have the chance to fight back before I was subdued. Somebody tore my vines from the neck of the lady that dumped her food on me.

The red vines that fell from her body started to shrievel up before disintegrating into ashes.

I tried to summon my power again but it didn't work.

I was back to square zero. The only strength I could utilize is my normal human power, nothing else.

That was when I remembered that I wasn't supposed to get my superpowers to work in the first place. I had forgotten about the cursed anklet Madam Tayo put on me.

I don't know how I was able to mobilize my power a few seconds ago.

I tried all the means that came to mind. I wanted a chance to use my powers again. Sadly, nothing worked.

Some of the women didn't attack me. Joanna was among those that stayed out of the scruffle.

Madeline and some other girls used their powers to do as much damage as they could.

As you reach the final pages, remember that 000005s.org is your destination for the complete story. Share the joy of reading with others and spread the word. The next chapter is just a visit away! Thankfully, their powers were weak.

Their powers hurt when it hit me but, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

I knew why their superpowers had weak effects. This was a brothel.

Madam Tayo wouldn't keep any latent threats around. It was highly unlikely that these women were taught to use their powers as the best weapons.

The only thing I could see Madam Tayo teaching them was how to use their powers to attract patrons and more customers.

Like Madam Tayo told me in the past, nobody wanted a prostitute with a rabid attitude.

Since my supernatural power was unavailable, I fought with whatever I had access to. I used my teeth, my nails, everything.

I might not win when I face these women but I will make sure I bite a chunk of their flesh off. Any person that offends me would not go scot-free.

"You guys should stop this nonsense or I would send someone to call Madam tayo." One of the ladies behind the counter shouted in a displeased voice.

I don't know how much time had been wasted in this fiasco. Madeline and the other girls finally released me.

Everyone involved in the fight had a bruise or an injury on their body.

I was the worst of the bunch.

I wasn't too unhappy. I fought back.

My food was wasted and there was no way I would get another portion.

Thankfully, I was able to get something into my stomach before the crazy lady that came to provoke me arrived. Staying here was going to be a massive waste of my time.

I turned around and left.

Silence and the burning eyes of the ladies behind me accompanied me out of the cafeteria.
