The lecture was over so it was high ti for him to make a move, wasting any more ti would be more than just wasteful. Even a single day, no, a single hour could be crucial.
...the black-haired attendant most definitely wasn't restless because he was forced to watch Horeo and Miriette teasing each other in public...
Definitely not!
Definitely!
...
Therefore, as soon as the red-haired middle-aged teacher declared the end of the final lecture for the day, Zoemi instantly left his seat and dashed towards the heroine before she even got the chance to stand up from her seat and walk out of the classroom with her head down without speaking to anyone, as she always did.
"Miss Burushi, can I have a mont of your ti?"
The black-haired boy stopped by the heroine's desk and asked while minding his distance, having in mind that the girl was scared of him the last ti they saw each other.
"Ah!"
Yet even with that precaution, Burushitto jumped up and gasped, sounding utterly terrified, and looked up at him with fearful eyes as if expecting him to hurt her.
"S-sir Zoemi...?"
She asked cowering and backing into her chair, nervously glancing at the door after the teacher left...
...but the man was already gone and the other students leaving the classroom were most definitely NOT going to help her – if anything, the blond girl ended up receiving even more hateful glares than before only because the handso attendant was talking to her.
"Miss Burushitto, with all that happened it must be really hard for you – that's why I want to apologize for scaring you the other day, while also explaining why I happened to walk on you and... you know who..."
"...!"
Zoemi stepped a bit closer and leaned down, making the most innocent expression he could muster while lowering his voice so that the leaving students would have a harder ti overhearing them – making the girl flinch...
"...the reason for that being...?"
…but at the sa ti, it seed like his non-threatening appearance was working on the blond girl as well because she didn't try to run away and instead furrowed her brows and asked cautiously – still on edge but not enough to try and run away at the first opportunity.
"You see..."
After having the ti to think things over, Zoemi decided it actually a good idea to try and tell her the truth – I was grabbed by the headmaster and taken to the office from where I was returning after stuffing locking her in the closet's drawer – yeah... it sounded like a really lousy excuse no matter how much good faith the other person would have.
In the first place, Burushiitto had already thought that the black-haired attendant was stalking her so why shouldn't he play around with that misconception but give it a positive spin...?
"The truth is – I was following you."
"!!!"
Zoemi glanced to the sides confirming that even Mireitte and Horeo had already left the classroom, making him and the heroine the only ones there, and confessed, making the blond-haired girl beco pale.
"But you see - there is a rumor that my master is connected with your bullying. Which is why I want to find the culprits – that is the people making life even harder for you - and clear out any suspicion that unjustly falls onto my master before it will start affecting her public image."
"!!!"
Just as if he used so magic spell affecting the heroine's behavior, Zoemi's words made Burushiitto's expression change completely.
She was pale and fearful before but after hearing him, she gasped and straightened her back, clenching her hands on her desk with excitent.
"Wait – so – you want to get rid of my bullies because they are in the way of your master?!"
She called out far too loud for Zoemi's liking...
"Yes – sorry for scaring you – I didn't tell you sooner because I was worried that if the perpetrators will see us working together they will back off into the shadows while the rumors continue spreading."
...but the black-haired boy nodded in confirmation regardless – Burushiitto's reaction was much more positive than he initially expected - but that was a good thing in the end!
"I am grateful to you for healing and fixing my face, but honestly – yes - helping out my master is the main reason I'm doing this..."
Zoemi even lowered his head apologetically to make it more convincing.
|Wait...? Could it be that I have actually entered the safe part of his route after all...?! Yes... Yes! That make's sense!|
Burushitto bit her lips and thought to herself feeling hope filling her heart for the first ti since Surou's expulsion.
|That ans that maybe I can convince him to ask Slutiette and Horeo to help rescue Surou! No, wait... I shouldn't, should I...? I shouldn't ally with Zoemi and instead, get Xoenith to help ... No... wait... why...? If Zoemi in is his yandere safe mode, why shouldn't I get his help?!|
"I believe you! Sir Zoemi, if that's the case then, a-actually, there is sothing that I would like to ask you...!"
Burushiitto was the one to reach out and grab onto Zoemi with a flushed expression.
"C-can we talk about it later today?"
She whispered, nervously glancing behind Zoemi's shoulder as the obviously furious Miriette and the first prince who was glaring at her coldly while peeking back into the classroom clearly waiting for the black-haired attendant - so Burushitto quickly let go of him and bowed her head.
"I have a lot of duties as an attendant but I should be able to take so ti today's evening, I will surely stop by your room if that is fine with you."
Zoemi looked at the blond girl and smiled reassuringly, pleased that things seed to be working out just fine.
|Perfect! We will be able to talk in peace and the Slutiette, no, Miriette won't get angry since she won't see it! There's a chance that I will see my Surou again without having to et with Xeonith again!|
The heroine thought, moved to tears...
...unfortunately for her, a certain person walking outside noticed both her and Zoemi interacting...
"Dumbass commoner can't even stay under the spell long enough to be useful... Although, maybe that's not her fault? Maybe I am just cursed with having Zoemis ss up my plans..."
...and he certainly wasn't thrilled about the heroine doing whatever she wanted despite him using the hypnosis spells that he had such a hard ti obtaining - before he frowned and glared at the black-haired attendant....
