Quick Transmigration: Cannon Fodder Strikes Back

Hera was having a long peaceful sleep

When a sudden loud noise came out from the Hera's door, Hera arouse from her deep slumber, she blinked and shut her eyes, she tilted her head sideways and opened her eyes, she stared at the walls absentminded

"Big Sister! Open the door! Open the door!"

Hera snapped out of her dream when she heard coherent sobs behind her door.

Hera looked at the clock beside her bed, five in the morning. She clicked her tongue. "Why is he crying this early in the morning?"

Hera got up from her bed and went to open the door

As soon as the door was opened, a cute little boy wearing a pitiful expression threw himself to Hera and hugged Hera's legs really tight

"Big Sister don't leave littleDio! Don't marry!" Dio choked from his tears

Hera frowned, what am I supposed to say to a five year old kid? What did mother and father told him anyway?

Hera tried to comfort little Dio until he stopped crying

"Come on wipe your snot, why are you even crying?" Hera said softly

"I heard you are getting married and I asked the maids and….and they said getting married means moving out" Dio started crying again, this time louder

Hera massaged her temple. How do I even explain this? Well they have a point; Leo wants me to live with him so it means I'm movingout from this house.

Hera felt she's having a headache

"You are not leaving Dio right?"

Hera was about to explain Dio everything when Mr and Mrs Barone went inside her room.

"Hera Barone. We have to talk. You thought you are getting away that easily? Rosette, come and play with Dio for the time being"

Rosette, Barone's family maid picked up Dio from Hera and went outside.

Dio wanted to protest but looking at his father's dark expression, he shut his mouth and with a saddened drawn in his face, he went with his nanny Rosette

They are still mad and that's an understatement

"Let me explain" Hera voiced out in a hurried voice

"You know marriage is not some plaything, it's not something you agree to on a whim! Do you even love him? Do you even know how to love? Do you know what love is?" Millian, Hera's mother said to Hera

Hera went silent.

Why do I have to deal with all these cheesy and mushy stuff?

How can I persuade them? I want to tell them I'm only marrying them for his t.h.i.g.h and for points

"I have investigated this Leo, and I know he is powerful man that we can never offend, they might point their swords to our company and we might lose some investors but it's a different case when we are talking about you, my daughter. He is too old for you, and and you are too young to get married!"

"No matter what you say I will not allow you to marry. That's final!" Mr Barone didn't even bothered to get Hera's opinion.

He believe Hera is too you for marriage. He doesn't care even if they offend someone they can't afford to offend. He and his wife have already come to decision that they will not allow this to happen

"But Father! This is a big opportunity to our company!"

Hera tried to reason out with her father but ruthlessly got rejected by her father.

"See! You are not even in love with him! You don't need to worry about the company, let the a.d.u.l.ts deal with matters like this, understand!?" Mr Barone stormed out of Hera's room and was later followed by Hera's mother

[System are you there?]

[System 021- I am here Host]

[Do you think It's okay if I disobey my parents?]

[System 021- Dear Host, Hera has always been listening to her father and mother. She has not disobeyed them even once. If you choose to disobey it will be considered OOC and you will be given a punishment for that]

[Let me think of a counter measure]

[System 021 – What about school Dear Host?]

[Let's skip for now]

In the classroom

"Where is Ms. Barone? Have you seen her? Does anyone of you know why she is not here today?" Leo

"Professor a man who claimed to be Hera's family butler gave this letter to us" The boy went up to Leo and gave him the letter we was holding

Leo frowned as he looks at the letter he was holding

Leo opened the letter and read its content

She's sick? She has a "high fever" so that's why she is not here today.

Leo raised his right eyebrow. What a lame excuse

"Ms Hera is sick and experiencing a high fever, so she won't be with us for today"

Leo's students started asking about Hera's condition

"Why did she have a fever so suddenly?"

"Don't you think it's just an excuse to not go to school?"

"Probably not"

"Maybe she's right, She absents a lot don't you remember?"

"Hey don't judge her so quickly! Didn't you see how fragile she is yesterday!?"

"I hope she's fine"

The students started to argue nonstop, some are defending Hera and some are not buying her excuse

"Close your mouths, stop accusing your classmate, it's not good for someone to judge others, here in the letter attached a medical certificate, and it states that she's sick, end of the topic and let's move on to the lesson" Leo stopped them from arguing

He knows she's not really sick; it's just an excuse, but excuse for what? She haven't signed the contract

Leo shook his head, let's just find out about it later
