━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ With the Black Tiger Corporation keeping the hero's kidnapping incident under the wraps themselves, Emilia's preparations to prevent people from sympathizing with Amos became unnecessary, leaving the redhead feeling both happy and disappointed. "Why would they not just expose it?" Emilia shrugged at her partner's question. 'I'm guessing that Mr. Black doesn't want to risk the kidnappers panicking and harming his son?' Whether her guess was true or…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Meanwhile, in a basement south of the city's outer zone, the hero was still going through the worst nightmare of his life. He had thought that getting beaten and ridiculed was already excruciating for someone in his position, but the lunatic who had captured him in a moment of weakness seemed to have no bottom line at all! Over the course of twenty-four hours, the man had gone from using an iron rod to break the hero's legs, to a wooden stick, and…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Crystal wasn't just making a wild guess. With her newfound 'ability', she could clearly sense the 'mischief' from the redhead by her side. Even if she had no idea exactly what it was that Emilia was planning, how could it be anything good for the teacher? The heroine could only sigh in relief that at least Emilia didn't decide to be naughty in front of Mr. Jefferson, or it would be a real disaster. Oblivious to her fate, the language teacher smiled.…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Emilia soon discovered that, in contrast to her expectations, the absence of the hero didn't cause many waves at school. While part of it was due to the hero's reduced popularity due to all her efforts, most of the credit actually went to the hero himself. After all, as someone who was often absent from school and never really interacted with most of his peers, it was no wonder that no one found his unannounced absence strange. With the Black Tiger…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ In the end, there was no way for Michelle to resist the will of her 'owner' and she could only sulk away to her room after being dismissed by Emilia. 'Three days without fawning over — cough — taking care of my princess, aahh, how will I survive?!' Samantha could see her little sister's complicated look as Michelle walked away, and she couldn't help but sigh. "You don't need to 'punish' her if you're going to feel bad about it." Emilia frowned as…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Emilia remained unaware of her partner's regrets, and happily greeted her older sister with a kiss on the cheek. Sam had been a little gloomy since last night after she was denied entry into her little sister's room, but considering the time and the fact that the girl should already be asleep, she could only reluctantly return to her own room to sleep. With one sweet 'good morning', however, all that gloom was instantly wiped off her face and replaced…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ There was no way for Crystal to be sure of the exact relationship between Emilia and her older sister without asking one of them directly. But as someone who was already familiar with Emilia, and had also noticed the greed in Samantha's eyes, Crystal was well aware that even if they hadn't reached the tipping point yet, it was only a matter of time. In that case, letting someone in that position see their current state would only serve to stimulate them…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Of course, the reason Samantha would ask such a thing wasn't because she believed Noelle was incapable of coming up with such an idea, but because she knew that the gray-haired lady generally didn't like doing these types of things. Having spent so many years together, Sam knew very well that Noelle would rather spend time improving herself than sabotaging her opponents. Noelle's expression immediately turned worse as she glared at the taller girl.…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Mr. Black's mood was already irritable from his day at work, and he was no longer in any mood to listen to whatever nonsense his son was up to now. "In that case, contact his bodyguard and have him dragged back immediately. No need to report such matters to me in the future." Although he had given the boy some freedom, he still hoped that Amos would be more disciplined until he was able to prove himself as someone who deserved real independence. As it was…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Amos felt the words get stuck in his throat when the blindfold on his face was abruptly ripped off. He thought they would never let him see where he was, or whom he was dealing with. After all, if his guess was right, the White Deer Corporation's employees certainly wouldn't want him to remember any of their faces. In case he was able to identify them later, even if the White Deer itself wouldn't suffer, the same couldn't be said for that employee. As…
