The Villainess With A Heroine Harem

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Meanwhile, the hero had no idea that he had now become the target of the infamous 'Knight Order' in their school, and continued to brood about what he had seen before.

Having followed Crystal from afar, Amos obviously wasn't able to hear her conversation with Randy, but he was still able to tell from their expressions that something wasn't right.

First of all, why would Crystal even meet a boy in such a secluded spot? It made no sense. How could his pure, innocent Crystal approach a boy on her own? Amos couldn't help feeling betrayed.

The love of his life was a pure girl untainted by the filth of this world. Let alone interacting with the opposite sex, she didn't even have same-sex friends! Except for that venomous villainess bothering her, Amos knew that the blonde girl would never talk to others without reason.

And worse, with the way the two followers of the boy looked so shocked… Amos couldn't help but have a bad feeling.

The fact that there could be others getting in the way of his love even if that 'wretched bitch' wasn't there anymore entered his mind, and he couldn't help but feel queasy. 'N-No, my Crystal is not that kind of girl!'

The more he thought about it, the more certain he became. 'All of this must have been planned out by that vapid whore! She knew I must be keeping an eye on her, so that bitch forced my poor Crystal to do this kind of thing, so that I misunderstand her! Vile whore!'

It was only after he realized the 'truth' of the matter, that the hero was finally able to notice a detail he had previously missed.

The boy's face… was quite familiar.

With his impeccable memory, it took Amos only a few minutes to recall exactly who the boy was. "It's that treacherous bastard! How can he still be alive?!"

The muscles in his arms twitched as rage clouded his mind, and Amos almost punched the wall, only managing to restrain himself at the last moment. "F-Fuck!"

Fortunately, just as he was too far from Crystal to hear their conversation, they also couldn't hear him slipping up. But his realization had already made the hero's blood run cold.

The bastard who betrayed him and put in him in the hospital was still alive! And not only that, he was even cooperating with that vile whore!

Amos couldn't be bothered remembering the names of all his lackeys, inconsequential as they were, and only vaguely recognized their faces.

Being a genius, however, he still managed to remember that the traitor who put him in the hospital was one of the boys from class A.

Now that he was in that very same class along with Crystal, he had seen neither of the two lackeys there. The first, he assumed was either hospitalized or dead from the injuries of that day, and the second… was exactly this traitor.

Having not seen the boy there, he had assumed that even that bastard father of his wasn't useless enough to not be able to get rid of one treacherous commoner.

Amos couldn't help but grit his teeth in rage. "I really overestimated that bastard father of mine! Fucking useless!"

Because of that man's incompetence, now his poor Crystal was getting roped into some convoluted scheme to harm him in some way.

He may not fear whatever those bastards planned, but he feared for the love of his life. The thought of any harm befalling the poor girl made his heart itch. "How can that venomous bitch keep targeting her like this? Heartless bitch!"

But although the fury rushed through his veins, Amos still managed to retain a clear head. "Heh, cook up all the schemes you want, you whore. This time, even if that bastard father of mine messes up… I'll be taking the matter into my own hands."

The thought of holding that vile whore's fragile neck in his palm, being able to snap it with a single thought, finally alleviated some of his fury, and his lips twitched in excitement when he thought of that scene.

What would Crystal's face look like when he finally triumphed over that little bitch? He was sure that she would finally be able to give him her true, genuine smile, no longer restricted by the chains that the venomous whore was using to bind her.

Getting rid of that bitch came second. His first priority would always be the love of his life. After all… it was never too late for a gentleman's revenge.*(even I cringed while writing this)

Amos vowed to himself that he would never let his damsel be in any more distress, his eyes steely and firm with determination. "Don't worry Crystal, my love, I will save you!"

Meanwhile, back at the White Deer mansion, Emilia was already headed towards her room to meet with her 'big sister'.

Truth be told, she wasn't really angry with Sam. After all, her 'big sister' had only settled Michelle into a more remote room, and hadn't really done anything to really go against Emilia's will.

Plus, Sam's performance had been quite good, and her rewards were still pending. Punishing her at this time would just be bullying her too much, and Emilia believed in treating all her 'subjects' fairly. Especially the cute ones.

But it was still necessary to make sure that Sam didn't get any ideas of mistreating Michelle. That girl didn't need any more of that in her life, after all.

In fact, Emilia had to make sure that even teasing Michelle wasn't allowed! Until her cheeks were chubby, her hair shiny, and she could face her future with a smile, the girl needed to be nurtured carefully.

Emilia made sure to furrow her brows and set her face into a scowl, intent on scaring Sam a little — admittedly mostly for fun. 'Ehehe… Sam oh Sam, as the old saying goes, one has to look at the master's face before kicking the dog, and bullying my servant is the same as bullying me!'

With both her expression and mind set, Emilia had barely knocked on the door once before it swung open, and the taller girl immediately lunged to wrap her up in a tight hug.

"My cutest little sister is finally here, ah!"
