Reincarnated as the Villainess's attendant

The process of healing wasn't instantaneous and lasted for quite some time - Zoemi didn't speak at all, not wanting to disturb the blond girl any more than he already did with his magic – but he was getting all fidgety because it was almost the time for one of the medics to do the routine check up on him.

...Zoemi might have been getting healed, but since he never mentioned his plan to anyone, the discovery of his empty bed could stir up some unnecessary trouble.

Thankfully, just as the black-haired boy was about to open his mouth and ask about how much longer the healing would take, the heroine let out a sigh of relief and opened her eyes.

"Anesthetic off. Now, let's have a look."

Burushiitto breathed out and nodded to herself with satisfaction, leaning close towards the black-haired boy's pristine muscular torso.

"..."

She ended up blinking a few times before subconsciously reaching out her hand, mesmerized.

"That's amazing...! I feel great!"

"!!!!"

The pain completely disappeared and Zoemi felt completely rejuvenated, so he ended up calling out in amazement – causing Burushiitto to flinch and return to her senses... for a moment...

"What about my face? Miss Burushi, what do you think?"

The black-haired boy gasped in excitement and turned around, facing the blond girl – while barely clothed at all, and completely healed up, with not even a trace of his horrible burn scar...

"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"...huh...?"

...and a single look was enough to physically repel the blond heroine, making her push herself away to the other end of the bed – covering her face with both arms and making the black-haired scarless boy utterly confused.

|Oh no...! Did it not work...?|

"Miss Burushi...?"

The boy despaired internally and called out loud, sliding himself closer to the panicked girl.

"Please don't be afraid – I already told you that I don't have bad intentions."

Zoemi declared, reaching out to the girl and gently grabbing her hands, and pulling them apart slowly revealing the crimson red face of the heavily breathing girl.

"N-nyooo!"

|Nyo?!|

The girl cried out pitifully and bit her tongue while closing her eyes and looking away from the black-haired boy.

"M-miss Burushi? Is it that bad...?!"

Zoemi gulped down his saliva horrified at the thought that he had become so disgusting that others would be too scared to even look at him!

That would be truly the worst possible outcome of the situation – but then...

"S-s-s-sir... no... l-lord Zoemi...! P-pl-please... I-I-I-I already h-have someone I like...!

"...what...?"

...the heroine cried out, biting her lips – causing the black-haired youth to tilt his head in confusion.

"What does that have to do with anything...?"

He asked in a clueless voice.

"..."

The heroine trembled, still looking away but with the silence from the flabbergasted boy she ended up gritting her teeth and facing him – still with firmly shut eyelids.

"...nnn... nnnnn...!"

Then, with a funny sound, she forced herself to open one eye and glanced at the body of the boy holding her in a rather risque position...

"...miss Burushi...?"

"...nnnnn....!"

Zoemi called out in a worried voice and the heroine dared to open both eyes and slowly raise her head so that she ended up gazing upon the black-haired boy's healed-up face...

"...fuaaaaah...!"

And as soon as she did that, her brain overheated and she yelped before she suddenly got a nosebleed and slumped limply onto the mattress as if her bones turned into jello.

"Miss Burushi?! Are you alright?!"

Zoemi gasped and hurriedly let go of the girl's hand to reach out for the handkerchief back in his clothes and was right back, putting it up to the heroine's bleeding nose.

"Is it mana depletion? You must have overworked yourself for my sake! Please, lay down and rest – I will get you..."

"...get out...!"

Zoemi offered, but the heroine muttered while staring at him wide-eyed.

"...pardon...?"

The black-haired boy tilted his head like a confused puppy and asked, causing the girl to tremble and blush even harder – so hard in fact that it wouldn't be out of place for her head to release a cloud of steam.

"Lord Zoemi...! Your face is f-fine...! P-pl-please get out of my room now – or my heart might not take it...!"

The heroine grabbed the handkerchief out of the boy's hand and declared before performing an emergency roll and evacuating the baed – only to then use the frame as a barrier dividing her from the black-haired attendant.

"Huh...? B-but... wasn't there something that you wanted to discuss with me...? A favor or whatnot...?"

Zoemi asked, taken aback by the girl's reaction.

She at least said that there wasn't anything wrong with his face, but then why would she suddenly act so suspicious...

"...ah..."

The boy looked down and realized that the only piece of clothing he had on was his underwear – it wasn't hard for him to figure out that since the treatment was over that look must have been absolutely unbecoming – and he even grabbed the girl's hands while looking so shameless.

|She's the pure-hearted heroine, after all, seeing an almost naked man must be completely out of her comfort zone.|

Zoemi figured out and backed off respectfully to hurriedly pick up his clothes and get dressed up – he also took all the used bandages to not leave a mess in the heroine's room.

"Sorry for bothering you – thank you for healing me, miss Burushi and about the compensation, please approach me whenever you will feel comfortable."

The black-haired boy declared, bowing his head before unlocking the door with the key still in the lock and leaving the room quietly. - without waiting for the girl's response just in case she was feeling too embarrassed.

"...I should have checked how I look in the mirror..."

Zoemi realized already in the hallway while walking back to the room he occupied, folding up the bandages.

*click*

"...water... water..."

The door he was about to pass suddenly open and a sleepy-looking green-haired girl wearing only the uniform's skirt and a shirt that wasn't even tucked in, came out muttering to herself while holding an empty jug in her hand.

"Good evening."

Zoemi nodded his head politely – while keeping a proper distance, still having in mind the prior incident when a girl walked into him...

"...nnn...? ah... evening~"

The girl mumbled sleepily rubbing her eyes not even properly looking at the black-haired boy.

"...say... you're a servant...? yeah... you should be.... why would there be a boy here at this hour..."

The girl continued talking more to herself than to the confused boy while dozing off.

"...hey... is it okay for you to go bring me some water from the kitchen, please...?"

The green-haired girl asked reaching out the jug towards Zoemi.

Honestly, the black-haired boy could refuse her as he was both an attendant of someone else and a student of the academy, so he had no reason to go along with the request – but at the same time he felt just the tiniest urge to go to the kitchen and look for Patishi – the younger sister would most definitely not lie about his 'new' look – and seeing her would also calm her down as Zoemi was sure that the brown-haired cooking-loving girl wasn't informed about his health and must have been worried.

"Of course."

Zoemi nodded with a friendly smile and reached out his hand to take the jug.

"Ah~! Thank y...!"

The girl smiled cheerfully and opened her eye, looking at the black-haired boy for the first time...

"!!!"

...and she froze speechless, staring at Zoemi with shocked green eyes.

"Miss...?"

The black-haired boy tilted his head and asked in confusion – the girl was still holding onto the jug and didn't seem capable of reaching it out any further than she already was so Zoemi took a step forward to grab it – but then...!

"A...! Abababababababaabababa!"

The green-haired girl's face turned from white to pink, and from pink, to bright red as she started to make panicked sounds and took back the jug into a tight hug and looked around in complete shock as if she was looking for another person – but there was only she and Zoemi in the hallway at the moment...

"Miss? I will bring you the water."

Zoemi offered, attempting to smile even friendlier without coming any closer to the girl.

"I- I WOULDN'T DARE TO INCONVENIENCE YOU, MY LORD! P-PLEASE FORGIVE ME FOR MISTAKING YOU FOR A SERVANT!"

"!!!"

The girl shouted in extreme embarrassment and backed off to her room, hugging the empty jug and bowing her head repeatedly – making the black-haired boy take a step back in bewilderment.

|Time to run!|

With bad prior experiences, Zoemi decided it was best to evacuate before other students will come looking for the source of the loud voice and create yet another rumor that Grazio would be able to use against him.

...and so he did – he even used the shadow enchantment to get a boost in speed and disparaged from the hallway in record speed that even the speed-oriented wind magicians would have a hard time beating.

...at the same time, back in Burushiitto's room...

"...dear god...!"

Even though a couple of minutes have already passed, the blond girl was only then able to stand up and stumble her way towards her desk where she looked into the small mirror and saw her flushed face.

"...that face – that should be illegal to be this hot...! He looked good even with the scar – but damn...! That scar was a limiter! And he was holding my hand so gently...!"

The heroine gasped, massaging her heart, barely able to keep her breathing steady.

"...I unintentionally unleashed the hottest guy in the game... crap... he is dangerous...! Extremely dangerous...!"

She told herself while imagining the devilish beauty of the black-haired boy who turned her legs into jelly and set her heart aflutter with a single glance.

"No! No, no, no! Buru – focus!"

The blond heroine smacked her cheeks and spoke to her reflection in a strict voice.

"You have Surou. Don't let that he-devil swept you away – he is a yandere! A handsome... extremely handsome yandere..."

Burushiitto ended up blushing and looked at the spot where Zoemi was sitting while getting healed.

"...and that's bad... so bad..."

She added in an absentminded voice...
