Chapter 10: Date alive
sow.
A calm voice uttered insulting words.
Such filthy and obscene words had never been heard even when Raiden Mei was bullied by her classmates.
The girl raised her head, her delicate face full of panic.
"No…don't!"
The students who study at Chiba Academy are either rich or noble, and each of them has a powerful family behind them.
If she were still the eldest daughter of the Raiden family, Raiden Mei would certainly have the confidence to protect Subin, but now she is isolated and helpless, with only her two friends around her.
She didn't want to see anyone else get hurt because of her.
However...
"…"
The frightened girl opened her mouth slightly, as if she had seen something strange.
In front of her, several classmates who had just attacked her were standing there with lifeless eyes, without any of their previous arrogance.
'This is...what happened?'
Raiden Mei was puzzled, but she felt a sense of peace invisibly.
There are people who stand up for her and protect her when she is bullied. She is not alone.
"Mei, are you okay?"
The concerned voice came, causing the girl to smile and shake her head.
Crystal clear tears streaked across the girl's delicate face, bringing with them a look of genuine happiness.
"I'm fine, thank you for saving me."
From hell to heaven, it is really difficult to understand what Raiden Mei is thinking now if you are not someone who has had the same experience.
She is really very happy.
"That's good." Subin turned his head and looked at the students he had hypnotized, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
A punishment that is too harsh is not appropriate, but a punishment that is too light will hardly serve as a deterrent to these guys.
In that case...
A sow should look like a sow.
"You guys, go get me those markers and yogurt."
…
The evening gradually deepened, and the sun set in the west.
Several girls covered in white, unknown liquid, fled from Chiba Academy with their faces covered. A few blurry Chinese characters could be vaguely seen on the inside of their thighs.
Although the classmates who bullied Raiden Mei did not suffer physical harm, they experienced death in advance in a social sense.
After today, these guys probably won't appear in Chiba Academy anymore.
There has been no fundamental change in the situation in which Raiden Mei is bullied, but it should be somewhat better.
On the rooftop, Raiden Mei stood beside Subin, watching several female classmates flee in panic, and felt sincerely satisfied.
From arrogantly bullying her and making wanton personal attacks, to feeling ashamed in the blink of an eye.
The bully who abused her was punished and will never appear by her side again...
"Thank you, Subin."
This was the first time Raiden Mei thanked him.
When she first met this man, she had a good impression of him because he didn't discriminate against her in any way.
Last night's secret conversation made her realize that there were more secrets behind her father's arrest.
Today, he saved her from bullying and healed the wounds in her heart in his own way.
Without his presence, Raiden Mei believed that she would be one step closer to the abyss of collapse.
"Why are you saying thank you to me? Didn't we agree last night that we are a family?"
Subin's smile is sunny and warm in the sun.
But Raiden Mei unconsciously took a small step to the side.
The girl blushed, thinking of Subin's outrageous behavior just now: "Who is a relative of a dishonest guy like you? You are so vulgar..."
The sound became smaller and smaller until it was drowned out by the breath of the wind.
As a party involved, she saw clearly the whole process of Subin punishing those guys.
Hypnotize those guys until their eyes are lifeless, let them use a marker to write "female dolphin" on their bodies, and then smear yogurt all over their bodies...
She went from being an ordinary JK from Chiba Academy to a victim of the other world.
It looked like an encounter with something that was not human.
I can think of this method...
"…"
Raiden Mei glanced at Subin and took two steps to the side.
She muttered, "Obscene."
So obscene!
She didn't want to be turned into such a vulgar person by this vulgar man in the blink of an eye.
That kind of thing was too beyond her scope and too explosive.
It would be fine if she secretly studied the forbidden knowledge of the other world when she was alone, but she didn't want to be turned into such a vulgar person by a man she had only met for a few days.
When she thought about the possibility of herself becoming like this, she felt as if Kiana was crawling all over her body.
'That look... is so embarrassing!'
Subin said helplessly, "Mei, if you don't do this, those guys will definitely become more aggressive towards you."
Eradicate all evil.
Although those guys were not physically eliminated, this level of social death was enough to prevent them from appearing in front of Raiden Mei for a short period of time.
After all, no one can survive in society with the title of "sow".
The ones circled in letters pretend he didn't say anything.
As for the more violent retaliation from these guys, there is no need to worry at all.
Cocolia treated them as puppets, arranging Raiden Mei to walk step by step into the abyss of collapse.
But this woman did not act hastily. Instead, she took her time, gradually leading Raiden Mei to collapse.
Not allowing physical harm to Raiden Mei is the red line set by this woman, and everything revolves around her will.
"..." Raiden Mei thought for a moment and thanked him again, "Thank you."
She took another step to the side.
Although it was refreshing to see those guys end up like that, as a woman, it was indeed a bit chilling.
If she opened her eyes one day and saw herself like this, she would be ashamed, even if she didn't explode on the spot.
Subin: "…"
Oh no, his image as the male protagonist in the other world has been deeply rooted in Raiden Mei's eyes.
Scratching head.
Perhaps he felt that his reaction was indeed a bit excessive, and Subin had helped him many times.
Mei Raiden covered her chest, letting her heartbeat gradually calm down, and she was finally able to think about the problem rationally.
She is not stupid. Her deviation value, which is second to none in Chiba Academy, is proof of her wisdom.
"How did you know I was..."
Everything is too coincidental.
She was being bullied, and Kiana hadn't come to help her yet. Instead, Subin, who was farther away, came to her side and punished those classmates for her.
If it were in the past, Mei Raiden would never have thought too much about it.
But after what happened last night, the world in her eyes has taken on a conspiracy-theory color.
Subin did not hide it: "There was a guy who claimed to be your bodyguard who wanted me to help you, so I came."
Even if Kiana stood here, she could tell that this so-called bodyguard had bad intentions.
The lack of intelligence has caused Cocolia and her gang to make more mistakes than they can handle.
Mei Raiden also knows this.
However, this is no reason for her to be ungrateful.
And looking at Subin's handsome face in the dusk, Mei Raiden suppressed her voice and said, "Tomorrow is the weekend. I want to go out and buy something for Kiana. Can you come with me?"
"No... don't get me wrong, it's not that I have any feelings towards you, I just want to do my part."
"Certainly."
…
Behind the door to the rooftop, a girl with snow-white hair heard this sentence completely with her sharp eyes and ears.
Mei, her Mei, her cook...
She was a step late again.
Behind Kiana, a girl with long straight black hair looked at Kiana with an envious smile.
"Raiden Mei, I really envy you."
…
On the other side…
"Ms. Bronya, the plan is going smoothly."
A man in a black suit bowed respectfully in front of Bronya Zaychik and handed her a document.
The first photo showed a scene of Raiden Mei and Subin having an intimate conversation.
"Raiden Mei, laugh as much as you can before you become my sacrifice to bring Seele back."
