Villain's Odyssey: Enslaving heroines, Conquering Villainesses Chapter 69: The Disciplinary Office Interrogation

"I want you to be as honest with as possible this ti," said the man sitting before us. Right now we were in the disciplinary office, yes...

We.

And by ’we’ I an myself and this psycho... Kelly.

It’s been two days since the incident at Paragon Hall. Right now the authorities were trying to get to the root of the situation, so we were brought here directly from the infirmary. I feel jittery around her given the power she showcased on that bloody day—power that led to an entity I had likened to a god... disappearing just like that. I still can’t feel its presence to this mont.

Yes.

The system remained with , but... that was it. Everything else was gone. I have a feeling this could have affected the slave bind I had with both Vivian and Anna. I still see the tattoo, but I don’t feel that deep connection any longer.

This is truly becoming a major problem.

Perhaps it’s because all my emotions were returned to . I an, I still don’t know what emotions were taken in exchange for the contracts, but I really don’t feel like anything is missing, so there’s a chance they were all returned to ? Right.

"Recount what happened, Student Kelly," the man looked at Kelly and asked. She had once again been giving those creepy glances. It wasn’t as obvious and unsettling as before, but it was still annoying. What bothers more is knowing I’m powerless against her. That’s what makes this whole situation even more irritating. The only solution I keep arriving at is elimination, but given the power she showed that day... I doubt I can manage that. An indirect thod might be the only answer—perhaps I could poison her.

"Classes ended and we were given instructions to head for Paragon Hall. The team leader of my group told us to wait a bit and fetch our newest addition," she said, and it was pretty obvious I was the one she was referring to.

"When I first saw him, I felt an instinctive feeling that sothing was wrong with him, but initially I dismissed it. But as we continued conversing with him, I noticed he was actively trying to charm ," she said, and I gently slapped my forehead.

I don’t understand any of this. How can I be trying to charm her without knowing I was doing it?

But... co to think of it, the reactions I get from girls regarding my appearance might not actually be completely ordinary. Am I unknowingly charming them? Is it so passive ability? Could it be related to the [Bind] ability?

No, that can’t be. I could have sensed sothing, and ’it’ would have said sothing if that were the case.

Sigh.

I’m sighing quite a lot right now, sothing I haven’t done in a long while. Could be because of the emotions of frustration and annoyance, perhaps with a mix of resignation. I can’t tell what emotion is making this way—all I know is that it’s slowing down my thinking power with so unwarranted ntal exhaustion.

This is becoming concerning.

"But the footage from Paragon Hall clearly shows you attacking him," the man said, stroking his well-grood beard.

"That was self-defense. I wanted him to stop trying to charm . I had even given him so distance initially, but he still kept appearing in my head. I had to do sothing," she said, and I looked at her blankly.

Okay, what the hell?

"What do you have to say for yourself, Student Asher?" the man asked, his rolling desk sliding forward toward the table, his hands clasped together.

"That all she just said is an excuse to vent out her frustrations on ," I said, deciding to push the whole situation out of my lap. All evidence points toward her—she’s clearly at fault, so I have nothing much to do here than dig her a deeper hole to fall into.

"Now why would she do that?" the man asked. I could sense her glare, but I didn’t bother with it. I would have her eliminated before long—it’s only a matter of ti. Letting such an unreasonable person loose would only lead to more complicated situations. But then again, I can’t do anything for now, as I would be seen as a suspect given this... situation. So I would have to wait a while before acting on my plans. For the anti, I’ll keep Tracy around until I’m strong enough.

"According to what I heard, her previous teammate joined Albion Academy. Perhaps soone else——replacing her ’boyfriend’ must have triggered her suppressed emotions, and she lashed out on ," I stated with a stoic face. As much as emotions affect , I’ve already gotten used to acting.

"That’s nonsense! I have never been in a relationship in my life—!"

"Student Kelly!" At this, she kept silent, then glared daggers at . Actually, daggers would no longer suffice for description, given the intensity of her malice directed at .

"So you’re saying you never attempted to charm her?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Affirmative," I responded. "It was either her imagination, an outright excuse... or even more likely, she had never seen soone as good-looking as I am, so her natural human reactions might have seed alien to her," I stated shalessly. Even the gray-haired man gave an odd look.

"What? I’m stating facts here," I said with a shrug, to which he... wait, did he just roll his eyes?

What is with this old man?

"YOU DISGUSTING SHALESS BASTARD! WHAT DO YOU AN BY THAT?!" She attempted to attack , but I didn’t move a finger. Why should I?

BAM!

She suddenly collapsed to her knees.

’Gravity,’ I noted.

Hmm, it seems I was right. This girl is hiding her abilities—she only revealed them back then for her stupid reasons. Well, it doesn’t matter.

Because at the end of the day...

"You may leave, Student Asher."

...I win.
