Reincarnated as the Villainess's attendant

"...! Y-you didn't know...?! Oh.. um... then, I guess then I spoke out of turn here – just forget about what I said – just don't use magic and she won't be able to mess with you."

Rokiana flinched and straightened her back before waving her hand dismissively.

"Why would she mess with me in the first place...?"

"...!"

Zoemi asked, blinking repeatedly, making Rokiana bit her lips and glance to the side in an attempt to come up with some excuse on the spot.

"Just forget everything I said, alright? Student Xeonith and Student Burushiitto went behind the school building – sorry to chase you away but I've been holding your father on the line long enough – oh, by the way – I called him first again today... Am I not being too obvious – or worse, annoying...? Should I try to call him less, or not call until he will call me first...?"

The blue-haired woman shrugged her shoulders dismissively and instantly leaned forward in a masterful topic change that caught Zoemi by surprise so much that he actually fell for it.

"Ah...! No, no! In fact, you should try calling him as many times as possible – he might look intimidating, but in fact, he really likes chatting even without a concrete subject. At the same time, he is also quite shy and won't start a conversation first because he thinks that others don't want to talk to him."

Zoemi smiled brightly and assured her with a gesture – and then his eyes darted towards the device Rokiana kept holding to her shoulder.

"Teacher, I'll be going now – have fun chatting with my dad, but don't get too immersed – it would be horrible if someone spooked you and you broke it while reaching for your sword."

The black-haired boy pointed out while feeling that a situation like that would most definitely happen if he tried to sneak up on the blue-haired teacher a little bit earlier.

"Broke my crystal? Don't even joke like that! I would cry!"

The blue-haired teacher flinched and actually became pale thinking of such a horrible outcome – she even ended up clinching the green crystal with both hands to secure it even a little bit better.

"...I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be mean – please don't get angry."

The black-haired bout apologized with a bow and stepped back with a guilty expression.

"Oh? No! Come on, I'm not mad!"

Rokiana laughed and waved her hand dismissively – although she was still pale and kept on glancing on the communication crystal...

"Now, you have some business with student Xeonith, right? Go then, or you won't make it before the curfew and seriously might get in trouble – although if things go well for me I might want to help you out~"

The blue-haired teacher winked at him and raised the green crystal back to her ear before turning away.

"Ah! Thank you, teacher! Goodnight and good luck!"

Zoemi bowed his head and giggled before waving at her cheerfully before running off towards the back of the building...

"Ah? Senior? Yes, he went straight back to his room, your son is such a good kid~ I wouldn't mind becoming his mother you know...?"

Rokiana instantly got back on the talk with Mizoe and fidgeted timidly while being quite forward.

"N-nothing! I only said that your Zoemi is a very good student! So you see about the training routine that I was taught - it goes like this. First I..."

...but then it turned out that Mizoe was having one of the denser episodes in his life and Rokiana chickened out instead of doubling down and hurriedly changed the subject while her face was dyed in the crimson blush.

-------

When he couldn't be seen by the teacher anymore, Zoemi stopped running and pointed at himself.

"Muffle. Shadow enchantment."

He said and a spell activated completely erasing any sounds that he would make while also augmenting his own sense of hearing.

He didn't try to cast the shadow movement since if by any chance he was spotted, it would be obvious that the blob of eerie darkness on the ground was him since there were no other magicians able to use that spell on the campus – at least not to Zoemi's knowledge...

Besides, there was a chance that he actually wants to be seen without causing a heart attack to the people he would want to show himself.

With all that what-ifs in mind, the black-haired attendant began sneaking forward, sticking closely to the building's wall.

As he turned the corner, he started hearing a conversation.

"You should be grateful that I even agreed to follow you here at such time, commoner. If it's my help and protection that you want, then you know what should e the compensation."

It was clearly Xeonith's voice.

The proud brown-haired youth sounded outrageously confident and – at least in Zoemi's opinion – creepy as hell.

|There's no way that this guy doesn't know how disgusting he sounds...|

Zoemi scoffed to himself before leaning a bit and peeking from behind his cover.

This time he had a clear view of the Xeonith's face and the heroine was the one whose expression he didn't see.

"...!"

The brown-haired capture target was smiling confidently at the heroine seemed to be cuddling up to him shamelessly.

….if not for the fact that the blond girl was literally shivering – and considering the temperature outside that wasn't something caused by the non-existent cold...

"..."

Zoemi instantly got a bad feeling and clenched his fists – was it the same thing as before?

But, why would Burushi go ahead and come to that creep all by herself...?!

...unless...

|Uless she is a reincarnated person too, but she still thinks that this world is just a game too...! Xeonith seemed awfully borning to me but he had a lot of fans – what if she thinks that he is the same as his character is in-game and wants to conquer him...!|

A sudden chill of realization made the black-haired boy shiver – but at the same time, as he wanted to move, the blond heroine twitched and started speaking...!

"Master Xeonith, please, don't leave me! I am powerless without you. I can't stand it!"

"...!"

She sounded so powerless that Zoemi flinched and froze in place.

What was Burushi talking about?

She was feeling powerless without Xeonith? Why?

That wasn't a dialogue option in the game so even if she was trying to conquer the brown-haired boy, she clearly wasn't going by the script...

...but at the same time, she sounded so honest that Zoemi started feeling bad for her.

"Hmph!"

Even though the black-haired boy was feeling sorry for the pitiful girl, Xeonith who was the person the heroine was talking to, smiled at her words and lifted her chin with his hand.

"If you really need me that much, you are willing to prove it, right?"

His smile widened and his eyes became somewhat creepy.

No, scratch that – they became EXTREMELY creepy.

He wasn't looking at the heroine as if he considered her a human.

Those were the eyes of an obsessed man staring at his possession.

"...Edung..."

At the same time, Xeonith wasn't the only person whose eyes changed – Zoemi standing behind the corner of the building muttered a name of a long-dead thug who together with his comrade Boren gather the orphaned children from the slums and made them steal for them...

...Edung was the one who was interested in the girl amongst that group and he always had the same expression on his fat face when looking at them as Xeonith had while looking at Burushi...

...and that alone made Zoemi cancel out his muffle spell but double down on the other spells adding the shadow armor on top of the shadow enchantment.

The brown-haired boy moved his hand aiming at the girl's lower body and...

….honestly, at that point it wasn't even because of the trembling heroine – who in truth had the most terrified expression and was on the verge of tears, hugging Xoenith harder and harder attempting to make it harder for him to lay his hands on her first...

...no...

At the moment, Zoemi was only thinking about his own hate towards repugnant filthy perverts like Xeonith and Edung.

Wiping them off of the face of the earth was exactly what he wanted!

"GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM HER, YOU PIECE OF FILTH!"

"!!!!!"

Zoemi stepped forward, not realizing that his shadow armor was deforming into a shape of a monstrous beast, and growled, which resulted in his armor deforming even more resembling a shape of the monstrous maws spreading open to swallow the pair in front of it...

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

"?!?!??!??!?"

The high-pitched panicked sound left Xeonith's mouth and the second-year student pushed the shocked blond girl away and just bolted away almost pissing himself from fear.

"...!"

"...!"

...it was honestly so shocking that it overpowered Zoemi's shock and the black-haired boy's spell calmed down and mostly returned to its normal look that the heroine recognized.

...it honestly looked like Burushi would be the next one to scream and Zoemi definitely didn't want to get caught in such a peculiar position – especially not after getting warned about a teacher with the same surname as him that might not like him at all.

"This world isn't just a game! Don't try to conquer a damn pervert, you idiot! Reo is a way better capture target to begin with! Shadow movement!"

"...eh...?"

Zoemi scoffed at the extremely shocked heroine and used one of his spells without activating the supposed essential shadow emerge – he figured out that since he is already encased in shadows it would be redundant and...

...he was absolutely correct...

------

"EEEHHH?!"

The heroine gasped in disbelief watching the bear-like shadow figure suddenly liquefy and turn into a puddle that hurriedly slithered away.

"Wha...? Why is he helping me now all of a sudden...?! And did... did that guy just say something about this world NOT being a game?! BUT I WAS LITERALLY KILLED BY YOU AND THE SAVEPOINT WAS LOADED! THAT'S WHY I AM STILL ALIVE!"

The blond girl bit her lips and crumbled onto the ground, roaring out in a fury that overtaken her.

"AND FUCK YOU! XEONITH IS A PIECE OF SHIT BUT REO IS JUST AN ANNOYING BRATTY...!"

"WHO IS SHOUTING OUTSIDE RIGHT BEFORE THE CURFEW?'

The plethora of emotions boiling over in the heroine's heart spilled out and she ended up just shouting after the black puddle – ending up being so loud that a voice of an older woman called out from behind the other corner of the building – making the blond girl flinch and start running away in the opposite direction.

"...?"

...and as a result, once the elderly brown-haired woman showed up at the sight, there was no student that could be caught and punished, or even scolded anywhere in sight....
