Rise Of The Hoarder Chapter 72 Humiliation

>BOOOOOMMMM!!!< r

The extre collision between Ana’s powerful fist and lissa’s sturdy barrier sent waves across the room, causing everything around to shake violently. Things turned out to be more serious than I expected.r

“I’ll ask you once again, lissa… and you’d do well to answer . Explain yourself!”r

lissa gulped this ti, appearing extrely fazed by Ana’s look.r

The fact that she was all alone in a room full of people who were suspicious of her didn’t help matters.r

“Calm down, Ana. Jeez… I only ca to talk about sothing when I saw that twerp. I didn’t know he was-“r

“Twerp? Are you trying to dismiss what you just did right now? You know the sanction that awaits you for this, don’t you?” Peter interrupted, glaring at lissa as he spoke.r

His annoyed tone, coupled with the slight look of satisfaction at the situation clearly proved that Peter had sothing against her.r

“Relax, okay? I didn’t break any rules!” lissa quickly protested before Ana hit her barrier again.r

“Charles told to co see you! It was urgent, so I ca here after our group gave their report.” r

Ana seed to calm down after hearing this, retracting her energy.r.

“So, Charles told you to assault Jeremy too?” Ana asked, still glaring at the nervous teen.r

‘Hehehe. This is so fun to watch!’ I mused.r

I already knew Charles was the camp leader, thanks to Lily’s explanation. While he had a very high influence within this structure, rely stating his na wasn’t going to fully absolve lissa of her serious cri of assault against .r

‘Let’s see how she’ll try to wriggle out of this situation!’r

“O-of course not! That was by chance. I don’t know what you know about Jeremy, but I have known him for far longer, especially when the world was still normal…” lissa argued, trying to turn the whole tide against .r

Too bad she made the wrong move.r

“S-stop it, lissa… please don’t tell them…” I weakly protested.r

Everyone looked in my direction, once again feeling pity as they stared at my bruised state.r

“You know her from before, Jeremy?” Ana asked, beginning to wonder if she had misjudged lissa.r

‘Of course, retard… I an, big sis.’r

“Yeah… I… well, she was… she used to bully back then, and I… I…” My voice failed and my lips quivered.r

I appeared too shaken to say anymore and once again fell silent, wincing in the agony of my wounds.r

lissa’s eyes bulged, clearly appreciating my acting skills… or not.r

“N-no, that’s not why I-” She tried protesting, however, one look from Ana forced her into submission.r

“So, you were Jeremy’s bully back then. lissa, you…”r

“This isn’t what it looks like, okay?” She defended herself, glaring at hatefully.r

“It’s true I used to bully him, but-“r

“That’s enough out of you, lissa. Leave this place before I do sothing the both of us might regret.” Ana growled.r

lissa must have had multiple experiences with Ana since she didn’t bother arguing. She stood from where her body had crashed and groaned.r

Deactivating her pink barrier, lissa walked past everyone in the room, stealing one final glance at . Since everyone was staring at her, waiting for the bitch to leave, no one focused on … no one but her.r

In an instant, I gave her an evil, mocking smile as a send-off present, ensuring she saw it.r

‘Y-you-!!!” Her face depicted the thoughts she was having.r

Still, she restrained herself.r

It would be suicide to try sothing in the presence of my able guards. So, the useless bitch had no other choice than to turn tail and run away.r

The mont she left, everyone rushed to my side and greeted with words of worry and comfort.r

“Jeremy, are you okay?”r

“Hope you weren’t too hurt?”r

“That bitch, to think she started picking on you already!”r

Ana was especially upset and visibly felt guilty. After all her lofty words of confidence, I ended up suffering so much on my first day. Poor .r

“I’m so sorry, Jeremy. I promise you… she won’t get away with this!”r

‘Music to my ears.’ I mused.r

“T-thank you, Ana. Thanks, everyone… truly. If you hadn’t co at that ti, I don’t know what I would have done.” r

My words appeared to move them, making feel a little awkward. It was a strange feeling to have so many people worried about , so concerned.r

‘Weirdos…’r

“You must be hungry, right? We brought food for all of us.” Daniel suddenly changed the topic.r

I smiled and nodded like an innocent little boy, deciding to leave out the part where I occasionally gave myself snacks from Subspace faster than they could perceive.r

These naïve people definitely needed it more than I do.r

Still, who says no to free food? Definitely not !

*********************************

“Those bastards!” lissa growled, driving her fist into a wall to relieve herself of the anger welling up within her.r

Since she had been in the Camp, and even before then, she had never suffered such humiliation, such indignity.r

“Jeremy, that bastard… he intentionally instigated them against !”r

Her anger wasn’t only directed at Jeremy, though. She hated the lot in Ana’s group, especially the leader.r

Out of everyone in the Camp, they were the only ones she couldn’t easily manipulate. Her influence also ant very little to them since they held a pretty high position as well.r

“Just you wait, I’ll show you…” lissa gritted her teeth, walking impatiently.r

“What’s the problem? You look infuriated?” A voice suddenly ca from behind her, startling lissa for a mont.r

Yelping, she turned to see who the person was and felt relieved to find her boyfriend, Daniel.r

‘I thought those guys chased all the way here and overheard .’ lissa heaved in relief.r

Still, it was a surprise to find Daniel all the way out here. Their room was on the opposite end of the building, on the next floor so what was he here for?r
