Reincarnated as the Villainess's attendant
Chapter 129 - 35 - Interfering With The Event (part 4)As a testament of the ridiculously overpowered strength that the enchantments of a transcended magician truly were thanks to just the difference in the mana quantity at their disposal, even though the slap missed – Miriette's hand created a shockwave that threw the blond heroine back head-first.
"..."
Zoemi froze in place – he successfully prevented his master from killing Burushiitto but failed to prevent the slap happen.
"Ugh...! Uugh...! Uuughuu..."
Burushiitto crawled herself up to a half-sitting position and sniffled, completely unable to hold back her tears.
It was clear that the damage concentrated on her nose, crushing it into a tomato-like pulp, but it may have been so that her teeth weren't completely fine either.
"...wh... whyy...?"
The blond girl sobbed pitifully, trying to stop the bleeding with both hands – and failing as the literal stram of blood was siping through her fingers, staining her clothes, and spreading on the floor.
"I warned you to not talk to my Zoemi, you wench, haven't I!?"
Miriette was furiously struggling in Zoemi's arms.
She tried to free herself, she flailed her arms and legs, just to jump at the blond girl to finish the job – but once Zoemi managed to tear her off the ground he wasn't going to just let her back and be utterly stupid anymore.
"Buru!"
Surou managed to shake off the initial shock of witnessing the scene of violence and panicked. He hurriedly kneeled by the heroine and once he saw the wound that definitely couldn't be shrugged as just a scratch - he became furious.
"...you bitch..."
He glared at Miriette with hostility, baring his teeth like a rabid dog.
"You dare to harm another student in the presence of the student supervisor!?"
He raised his voice in cold fury – but somehow managed to not start shouting.
"Harm her?"
Miriette stopped struggling and laughed off the accusation.
"Oh, I will show you harm when I will end up splattering this wench's brain on the wall behind you!"
"Miriette... please, just shut up..!"
"...!"
The dark-haired girl chuckled mockingly, still rearing to fight but froze once she heard Zoemi's whisper who was about to lose control himself.
|That idiot – that unbelievable idiot...!|
Zoemi thought to himself while glaring down at the spiky hair of the girl in his arms.
"That's it!"
Surou shook his head.
"Buru, can you stand up? Here..."
The blue-haired second prince turned back to the blond girl and pulled out a handkerchief before using a spell to gather water into his hand and then another one to turn it into ice.
He wrapped the ice with the handkerchief and put it up to the girl's wound.
"You can heal it up with your magic, right...? Do you think you can stand up? Go to the toilet and sit down, I will get you a set of clothes to change into... But first..."
His hostility disappeared momentarily when he spoke to the blond girl but then he looked back at Miriette and all of his anger returned.
"I have to deliver a just punishment as the student's supervisor..."
He added staring daggers at the Miriette who calmed down considerably but didn't change her slaughter-ready expression.
"Mhy...! My phince... nho... it hwas my phault...!"
"...!"
"Now, now – it's alright. You need to heal up as soon as possible, this looks really bad..."
Burushitto clearly tried to take the blame upon herself and certainly earned some goodwill points in Zoemi's book – but the blue-haired prince merely shook his head and helped her out to the toilet that was mere few steps away.
"That does it! If I could I would expel you immediately!"
Once he got back, Surou growled at Miriette, pointing his finger at her.
"Suspension for a week with a ban on using magic! And don't you worry, the headmaster will hear about this and decide your actual punishment! Causing serious physical harm to another student – twice! Such outrageous behavior will not be tolerated in the Aspakeony Academy!"
He declared gritting his teeth settling on the highest form of punishment that the student's supervisor could bestow upon a student from the high-nobility.
The Academy was treating all of their students equally – the high noble rule was created to protect the student's supervisor from the wrath of the families of the punished high noble.
When it came to any other student, the student supervisor had to submit a proper paper explaining the guilty student's faults and why they decided upon a certain punishment – with the exception of expelling them – but in the end, just like with the high noble-born students, the final verdict was up to the headmaster – who was known to never hold back with anyone.
"Fine! Just let me hit her some more and let's make it a whole month!"
Miriette didn't give a damn about the punishment and glared at the toilet's entrance where the heroine disappeared just a moment before.
She didn't care because she wasn't aware that the ban on using magic meant the bracelets.
But Zoemi did know.
And has already created a plan for this very situation...
The black-haired attendant with an ugly burn-scar disfiguring his right cheek let go of his master, went on his knees, and put his forehead to the floor.
"My prince! I beg of you, don't punish my master! It all happened because of me as I was unable to hold her back! It is only I who should suffer the consequences!"
"Zoemi!?"
Miriette was so surprised by Zoemi's sudden action that she forgot that she was angry.
"My prince, please! As an attendant, I cannot let my master be punished for my misconduct!"
Zoemi didn't react to his master and kept pleading to the second prince – making sure to get all attention away from the dark-haired girl no matter what.
"...!"
Surou was no less surprised than Miriette.
Burushiitto has told him that the ugly attendant was loyal and he could become a great servant for him but he didn't expect that level of loyalty.
That was a borderline obsession – which, honestly, someone with low self-esteem like the second prince dreamed about his servants to have.
Also, there was that thing about Burushitto showing too much interest towards the Espine's attendant which earned her getting hit...
If Zoemi really was that great of a person there existed a possibility of Burushitto falling for him.
In short, Surou was both intimidated and jealous.
|No one can be that loyal...! I'll make him show his real face and once Buru will return she will realize that I'm better...!|
The blue-haired second prince thought and decided to scare Zoemi off....
