In a dimly lit room not far from Crystal's home, a muscular man in a black leather jacket with a shallow scar over his left eye faced the rear end of a high back executive chair. "The brat left?" The man reporting wished that the 'boss' would at least swivel around so he could look at his face and at least tell if he was pleased or not. But even if he found it annoying, what could he do? "Yes, boss. He came to deliver some 'crucial information' and ran away right after." A loud snort echoed…

Cynthia knew that she had screwed up royally. Even though Emilia looked so pitiful right now, how could she not know that far from being distressed, her villainess was actually very, very angry instead? And as the person responsible for making her angry, the poor system could only meekly keep quiet and hope for the best. Thankfully, Emilia seemed to prioritize reassuring her companions that she was alright over bringing Cynthia to 'justice'. By the time her turn came, she should have cooled off a…

"What's wrong?" Emilia frowned, not quite sure herself if the strange feeling was just her illusion. "No, it just felt like someone's been following us." Crystal looked slightly embarrassed as she coughed. "I-It's probably not wrong. All kinds of bad guys litter this area, so you should definitely be very careful if you ever come alone." Emilia blinked, looking at the heroine curiously. "Don't you do it every day?" The heroine looked slightly awkward. Is she a beautiful rich lady? Why…

Thankfully, the cafeteria wasn't too far, and they arrived shortly. Crystal could only sigh wistfully as Emilia led them to a 'reserved' table, and they were promptly served their coffee along with luxurious deserts by the staff. The service was less like a school cafeteria, and more like a high-class restaurant. She would never come to this place on her own due to her financial situation, because even the normal menu was absurdly expensive from what she knew. And these deserts were definitely not…

Crystal never believed in things such as fate, destiny or even justice. Not before meeting Emilia, at least. She was a firm believer of logic. Every person's actions were always fueled by their motivation, which in turn was fueled almost entirely be benefits. The benefits did not always have to be monetary, of course. Monopolizing a person could also count as a 'benefit'. Using this simple approach, Crystal was always able to detach herself from the world and view things as an observer. This…

It could be said that after the whole bullying fiasco in class B, the life of Amos Black had returned to 'normalcy', more or less. But that doesn't mean he forgot about the humiliation he had suffered. In his entire life, no one had ever dared to talk back to him, let alone look down on him. But from the day he had entered the Imperial Academy, it was one humiliation after another. Whether it was the careless reprimand from the asshole maths teacher, or the callous attitude of that bimbo Danielle…

The students in class A were generally fully focused on their studies, and did not pay attention to the useless gossips and 'current events' that would just end up wasting their precious time. So it was no wonder that they weren't very enthusiastic when Penny first approached them with an offer to join the so-called "Princess Emilia's Royal Guards" club. To begin with, none of the students in class A would join a club that didn't reflect well on their resume later on. Every second they spent in…

Mrs. Macmillan was a gentle lady, and a young teacher who hadn't even entered motherhood. Although she would never admit it, getting crushed on by the students was a giant ego boost to any teacher. Especially in high school, where it was far more usual for the students to hate them or just find them annoying instead. Of course, it was impossible to even consider 'returning' these feelings, unless someone was too keen on getting fired and maybe even going to court. But over the past few years, she…

Emilia was quite content with how things seemed to turn out, even with the various countermeasures the principal took to keep her rising 'fame' in check. Just from observing the stares of both adoration and fear being directed her way, she had to admit her plans were even more effective than she could have ever imagined. Most students seemed to now believe Emilia to be a somewhat irrational but good hearted girl, who took action to enact justice herself when no one else dared to. Even if it…
-
Perhaps the principal had already lectured the teachers to make sure things didn't go in an 'unwanted' direction, because despite the commotion on the day before, the teachers' attitude towards Emilia remained the same as before. It was as if nothing happened. The students, on the other hand, were an entirely different story. Dorothy, a chubby girl from class C looked at her friend skeptically. "You mean she calls herself 'the princess'?" Her friend Penny was the shortest girl in class C, and also…
