Chapter 86
Marian walked over, her eyes filled with hatred as she confronted Norbert. “Evangeline, can you let me handle him?”
Evangeline chuckled, her expression playful. “I’ll have my fun first, then I’ll pass him over to you when I’m done.”
Marian’s eyes sparkled with gratitude. “Thanks!” If it weren’t for Evangeline, she wouldn’t have a chance to get her revenge, so she didn’t mind playing with leftovers.
Evangeline turned her attention back to Norbert, a grin lighting up her face. She appeared innocent and stunning.
However, Norbert, staring at her closely, felt a chill run down his spine. Ignoring the pain in his body, he scrambled backward. “No… don’t hurt me. You can’t do this! I’m with Jeffrey; if you hurt me, he won’t let you get away with it.”
With a swift kick, Evangeline sent her foot crashing into the other side of his face.
Norbert shrieked, feeling a dozen bloodied teeth pop free from his mouth. He hardly had any left.
“Evangeline, stop! Do you even remember the rules of the competition? You can’t purposely hurt other contestants!” A voice boomed from a nearby drone, the director fuming.
Evangeline glanced at the drone, a smirk twisting her lips. Then, she raised a wooden stick and brought it down hard on the drone.
The drone plummeted to the ground, its frame crumpled and lifeless.
“Evangeline, you’re out of control! You think you can ignore the rules and treat others violently while destroying our equipment? Don’t think we won’t take action against you!” The director’s voice trembled with anger.
Evangeline scoffed, her eyes sparkling with mischief. “Funny. You guys were the ones who broke your own rules first. You said if someone wants to quit, they just have to say so on camera, and you’d send someone to pick them up. But you guys have completely ignored that and haven’t picked
anyone up.
“When Kent pushed Leigh in front of the lion and got him killed, you looked the other way. And when Norbert bullied Marian and you sweetly turned off the live feed, just letting it happen; you didn’t lift a finger. The moment I break the rules, it’s like you’re all barking like crazy dogs.”
The director quickly backpedaled, trying to deflect the blame. “Look, our crew was just too busy to notice. And as for the stream shutting down, it was due to a technical glitch!”
Rolling her eyes, Evangeline let out a scoff. She raised the wooden stick again, ready to smash the remaining drones, but in an instant, all the drones scattered into the sky, their cameras shutting down.
Setting the stick down, she thought to herself, ‘Good, that stops the filming. What I’m about to do next is a little bloody, and I’d rather not have my fellow countrymen watching!
Meanwhile, in Clusia’s live stream, comments exploded.
[What the hell, did Evangeline really just say that? The production team isn’t sending anyone to pick up the contestants who quit?]
[Leigh is dead? Did the production team just watch him get murdered without doing anything?]
[This show is beyond messed up. They actually don’t care about the contestants‘ lives. Those are real people!]
[People are dying live on camera? How is this even possible?]
[This show is spiraling further and further out of control.]
Japrium’s audience had completely different opinions. [How could Evangeline be so ruthless towards Norbert? That’s outright attempted murder; someone needs to drag her away and throw her in jail!]
[Evangeline’s gone too far. She’s clearly out for personal revenge–Clusians have always done harsh things to us, but what happened in the past has nothing to do with us now. Besides, anything can happen during a war. Clusians have killed Atharians too; why don’t they apologize for that?]
[Yeah, they’re just petty. They can’t let things go, even after so many years. No wonder they’ll never match up to Atharia.]
[Production team, hurry and get someone to save Norbert! The live feed is down, and we have no clue what’s happening!]
[Damn it, Evangeline is crossing the line, openly bullying our people. She’s trampling on our pride, and the production team needs to punish her hard!]
Atharian audience was also angry. [Why did Jeffrey run away? He should’ve given Evangeline a serious lesson!]
[Jeffrey is too kind; he doesn’t stoop to a woman’s level. He spared Evangeline’s life unlike her
Chapter 86
[The production team needs to step in and deal with Evangeline because letting kind–hearted Jeffrey face her is totally unfair!]
[Exactly, Jeffrey has always been the gentleman–he’s never laid a finger on Evangeline, while she keeps throwing challenges his way. He’s definitely going to pay for his kindness in the end.]
In the heart of the forest, Evangeline approached Norbert, who was struggling on the ground. With fierce determination, she picked up three arrows and used two to pin his hands firmly to the earth, preventing any chance of escape.
Norbert screamed in agony, his cries echoing through the trees.
Evangeline held one arrow above his arm, drawing it down in a precise motion that carved a line to his wrist. She did the same to his other arm, then marked yet another line across his chest.
Norbert’s screams seemed endless, but Evangeline quickly fashioned two slender twigs and jammed them into his pressure points, forcing him to stay conscious as the pain intensified. There was no chance for him to black out; he had to face the agony head–on.
Despite the network feed being cut off, the wealthy spectators still had access to the internal live images in the viewing room.
The horrifying scene before them sent shivers down the spines of those who were even usually desensitized to brutality. Watching Evangeline smiling sweetly while inflicting such torment shocked everyone into silence.
