Reincarnated as the Villainess's attendant

|What I'll say won't matter to him, but I must save as much honor as possible!|

His anger had to be pushed aside, this was a threat that could directly affect his master!

It was already a big problem to have a darkness magician as an attendant even if he never did anything wrong - but to keep one around when there was an accusation about him being a rapist?

That damage would be unrepairable!

"I never violated nor attempted to violate anyone."

Now it was Zoemi's turn to act all high-and-mighty and speak with confidence.

"Although I did give miss Ralia a scare yesterday, I didn't even touch her - she fell down on her own... probably scared by my visage, and I do not blame her, obviously."

The black-haired boy sighed while motioning at the right side of his face - which was also a moment when his glare became sharp as he glared right into Grazio's eyes.

"I apologized and offered her my hand to get up – but she seemed to be genuinely afraid and returned to her room. That's it."

Zoemi told the story exactly how it went without stuttering or looking away, in a cold matter-of-fact voice.

Without changing his expression, Grazio turned towards the girls behind him.

"N-no, he didn't – he attacked me!"

"Yes! I saw him rip off Sifra's nightgown!"

"Yes!"

The three girls started talking over each other as soon as Zoemi closed his mouth.

With them trying so hard to shout over him, it looked just like a...

|Setup...|

Zoemi had no doubts that this was exactly what this situation was and that it was all planned by Grazio.

|Guess he hates me even more than I hate him. Damn... it must have hurt him so much when he tried to hurt Miriette and was burning me alive...! THIS DAMNED FUCKER!|

As unexpected as it may sound as if - at the moment - Zoemi's mind was crystal clear and the only thought he had was - no matter what you do, do not let Miriette suffer...

...and to punch Grazio in his stupid face so hard that he would regret ever messing with him in the first place...

...but, mostly about Miriette.

"Miss Ralia."

Zoemi turned to the blue-haired girl and looked at her with calm eyes.

"..!"

Sifra Ralia took a step back even though the black-haired boy didn't make any sudden moves.

"Oh no, you don't! You won't get away with this, darkness magician! I saw everything too!"

The red-haired girl – who was obviously the Helterose girl that Grazio partially introduced a moment ago as the daughter of a friend of his father - stepped between them and glared at Zoemi with a challenge.

"...?"

Zoemi raised his brow sparing only a single glance at the red-haired girl...

...and then he moved a bit to the side so that he could see Sifra again and he bowed his towards her, ignoring the Helterose girl.

It was a full ninety-degree bow, he didn't bend his knees before her since he was of higher status because of his job, but with that, he was showing Sifra Ralia the greatest amount of respect he could.

"Miss Ralia, there has been a terrible mistake. I never attempted to attack you and if you focus and try to remember things how they were, you will surely recall that I didn't tear or rip off anything. How could I when I didn't even touch you, to begin with? I must have scared you because of my disfigured face, but please, do not confuse nightmares with reality."

He said without raising his head.

"Oh, no, no, no! You won't get away that easily! You might try to lie your way out, but - actually - both of us saw what really happened!"

It was the red-headed girl again, she looked down at Zoemi's head with disdain, like he was something filthy while pointing at herself and the green-haired girl standing on the side.

"That's what you get for allowing a filthy darkness magician to the school! You are all the same, perverts and liars!"

The red-haired girl scoffed and shook her head with disgust.

"Miss Ralia, since it was a misunderstanding and I'm very sorry for giving you such a fright I have a gift."

|You must have been very busy planning this whole show with your bitch friends and Grazio...|

The black-haired boy stopped himself from saying the last part while he completely ignored the red-headed girl, and without raising his head he reached his hand with the checkered cookies in cute wrapping towards the blue-haired Sifra.

"I wanted to give it to you this morning but we must have missed each other."

Zoemi said offering the apology gift.

"How dare you ignore me, you ugly rapist!?"

But the red-headed girl growled furiously and smacked the gift out of the boy's hand - the wrapping smashed against the wall and flopped on the floor causing one crumbled cookie to fall out.

"You raped her and you will be expelled for that!"

With the face as red as her hair, the girl shouted at Zoemi.

|Oh, so I suddenly raped her? Not just ripped her nightgown or whatever? It's no longer an attempted violation?|

"Wh-wha...?! Keriul, what are you...?!"

Even the blue-haired Sifra - who was supposedly raped - stared at her friend in bewilderment, lost for words.

And then...

"What is the meaning of this...?"

A young blue-haired teacher suddenly appeared from behind the group and moved her eyes between the five of them.

"Ah! Teacher Perserios!"

The red-haired girl brightened up and her eyes shone with triumph.

"There has been a ****! This man assaulted poor Sifra! Please, you must help us get justice!"

The red-haired girl suddenly changed into a trembling teary-eyed damsel in distress and begged the teacher in a broken-hearted voice.

"K-Keriul, are you mad, don't you know that I...?!"

"Shush, I will take care of this."

Sifra panicked and muttered while grabbing onto her friend's vest but her hand was shaken off.

"..."

|...fuck...|

Zoemi felt a wave of rage building up inside of him.

That was it.

Grazio, with the help of three background characters whose names were never mentioned in the game, created a condemnation event just for Zoemi - who originally wasn't even in the game.

"Student Auequas..."

The blue-haired teacher, the same one who was one of the examiners on the magic test and the one who was the one to teach her student about the importance of the utility spells, turned towards Zoemi and opened her mouth.
