"Muffle."

Without hesitation the black-haired boy cast the silencing spell on himself and stuck to the wall, then he peeked inside the empty classroom...

Indeed, both the heroine and the brown-haired capture target, Xeonith Zarble Derizno were there – but... why...?

Even in-game a nighttime event like that didn't happen – and even thinking outside of the game script, the heroine never showed much interest in anyone except Surou – especially not towards the proud and stoic Xeonith.

But there they were...

...and, honestly, the heroine didn't look particularly happy about her current position...

|This... requires a little bit of an investigation...|

"Shadow connect."

Already knowing that the Burushiitto was avoiding him, Zoemi decided on the stealthy approach and whispered the spell he has used many times before when he still thought that he was just a darkness magician...

As it was better to have some visuals without the danger of being seen while peeking through the door, the black-haired boy decided to use that spell and connected his shadow with the shadow that the teacher's desk cast thanks to the dim light of the magic crystal lamps in night mode.

Burushitto and Xeonith were standing in the back of the dark classroom so that they couldn't be noticed without actually walking inside, the brown-haired sophomore was standing a bit sideways so Zoemi couldn't quite catch his face from his perspective but Burushitto's expression was very much visible.

She seemed to be terrified and kept on glancing at the door as if thinking only about escaping – but the brown-haired second year was blocking her way – that sure looked like this meeting wasn't the girl's idea...

...and that was exactly why it was so odd...

|Was there even a single situation in the game where Xeonith approached the heroine first...? He was far too prideful to lower himself to that level until she helped him out after he lost a duel to the first prince... but that didn't happen as of yet – I know that this is not a game, but nobles are far more prideful then they were shown... then what is this situation?!|

Zoemi furrowed his brows and fidgeted nervously with a bad feeling...

|...oh, she's not wearing the ring anymore – probably a good call – she would get bullied even more if she kept it...|

He nodded his head while absentmindedly making an observation...

"M-master Xeonith... i-it's already late – when I told you that I want to talk I didn't mean..."

"Shut up – who allowed you to talk to me first, commoner?"

"...!"

The heroine cried out in a miserable voice – but the brown-haired boy scoffed at her causing her to close her mouth and lower her head apologetically.

|Wait – so she wanted to meet up first in the end? Not good. This is exactly the thing I wanted to warn her about...|

Zoemi gritted his teeth and was about to enter the classroom to get the blond heroine out of trouble when...

"You are acting all timid now, but you were pretty forward before – didn't you whore yourself out to that disgrace of a second prince? Why acting up all prude now?"

"!!!"

Xeonith shrugged his shoulders and mocked the girl – making Zoemi realize with that one sentence that he was nothing like the character from the game.

After all, even though Xeonith from the game was the definition of a stick in the mud – he would never speak in such a tone to another person...

|Now that I think about it – back at the beginning of the school year he was much more verbose and rash than his game equivalent – I should have noticed it then...|

The black-haired boy sighed and decided to wait a bit more...

"Don't you dare to talk like that about my prince!"

"...!"

"...!" ????????????????????????????. ????o????

Both Xeonith and Zoemi flinched in shock at the intensity of Burushiitto's response.

"How dare you speak like that about him and me?! The second prince might have been led astray, but he is a good person and wouldn't do anything to disgrace my honor...! Ah...!"

"...?"

It was unclear for Zoemi – but judging by the heroine's reaction Xeonith must have made quite the scary face as the blond girl's words seem to get stuck in her throat the moment she looked the brown-haired boy in the eyes.

"...so what you are saying is that he didn't bed you and wanted to actually marry you first...? A commoner like you? Pffft...! That only proves that Surou is both weak and has no honor of a proper noble – treating a commoner like equal!"

Xeonith let out a burst of ugly laughter and ridiculed the blond girl who lowered her head and clenched her fists doing her best to hold back.

|...what a piece of shit...|

Zoemi couldn't help but feel disgusted – but at the same time he couldn't stop watching the situation – the heroine was safe – for now – and since she refused to talk with him on multiple occasions, seeing her reaction could be essential to figuring out what was she planning to do.

In the end, it sounded like she actually initiated the meeting – although she didn't have that exact time in mind.

What was her reason...?

"..."

With a firm conviction to step in before something serious happened, the black-haired attendant remained still, glued to the wall.

"You...!"

|!!!|

Burushitto's shoulders trembled with anger, as if hearing Xeonith insulting Surou was even a greater offense than him insulting her, and she actually raised her hand in a motion suggesting that she was going to slap the brown-haired capture target...!

"You were so eager to ask me for help saving that useless average water magician who dreamed about taking the throne – and yet you lack the intention of sacrificing yourself for that cause? Typical commoner – you want to get everything handed to you while you should be grateful to be left alive."

"Wh...what...?"

Burushiitto tried to back off but she was already pressing her back against the wall and Xeonith was towering over her – so her escape routes were cut off.

|...|

Zoemi scowled angrily waiting for the next move of either one of the two while trying to remember more details about the brown-haired capture target to try and figure out whether there was anything that resembled the character from the game in the person mocking the girl in the dimly lit classroom.

As far as the black-haired boy could remember - Xeonith always frustrated him the most, in the beginning, he was very distant because of his enormous amount of pride, and even by the end Xeonith always felt like he always stayed somewhat distant – and had no after story whatsoever – only the last illustration in which he and the heroine didn't even kiss – merely holding hands and that's it.

No another short episode, no text-based side story scrolling down after the end credits – nothing.

"You know what I mean? Or is your simple brain unable to make a connection? There is only one thing that I could possibly want from someone like you in exchange for my benevolent help. I'll give you a hint – I called you here just because I didn't want to be seen walking out of your room."

Xeonith leaned above the heroine and put his hand on the wall beside Burushiitto's head – and although Zoemi couldn't see his face, he was sure that the brown-haired second-year student wasn't making a reassuring expression....
