When a sharp cry that was almost like an insult pierced her ears, the girl turned her head and looked at the source of the sound.

And as she looked at the sweaty sight of the group of female students there, her grip began to slowly tighten.

“It’s hot because I’m practicing!!

hey!! Go buy some drinks!!”

“I don’t know how hot it really is… !! Whiyuuu~

Are you hot, Vivian?

I’ll be colonizing it soon!! Hoho!!”

A girl with blue hair who just set the mood without saying a word and distorted her expression, and the girls next to her who were busy flattering as if they were her left or right arm.

When one of them tried to order her to take the bread shuttle, the girl, who was clenching her molars and pretending not to notice, soon turned around and was walking towards her locker outside the training center.

A lot of people were gathered around the locker where students used to keep their personal belongings, and the moment Anne found hers and was about to open the locker.

“Is this crazy!! Can’t you hear someone talking?”

When one of the gang’s gang of gangsters shouted and punched Anne’s locker, making a loud noise, people around the locker, which had faint marks from the fist, appeared to sneak out of the place.

The emotions engraved on their expressions are sympathy for Anne, who was caught by evildoers, relief from knowing that they were not the target, and indifference as if being caught up in them was a bother.

The images of the people around her passed out of sight, and Anne was glaring at the gangly girl standing in front of her.

“……”

“Didn’t we ‘ask’ you earlier?

Is that really that difficult?”

“Aren’t you bored?”

“What?”

“If you’re going to hit me, hit me. If you’re going to curse, curse.

If you don’t have anything to do, don’t be a bother and get out of the way.”

“ha? I guess this bitch has turned around?

Are you the kind of person who likes to be hit?

Then shouldn’t you have told me in advance?

Wouldn’t it have been better to put it in the window you’re good at?”

“Ahahaha!!”

A group of gangsters burst into laughter at a sarcastic remark from a gangster.

However, another bully was leaning forward, pressing his forehead against Anne, who had turned her gaze towards him, and glaring at her and starting to threaten her.

“Who said they had no business? Didn’t I just say that?

Go get me a drink, you old bitch.

Are you still having trouble understanding the topic?

Then you really… … Vivian… !!”

But soon, her body tilted back and she was pulled out, and the blue hair that she had been watching until now was flowing, flowing into Anne’s field of vision.

“It’s like a bastard at the bottom barking without even knowing the topic.

I really don’t like it. On the other hand, I’m also curious, right?

How long will I be able to endure with that humble pride?”

The meaning of those words may have been a moderate expression of threat, but even after hearing those words, Anne was still glaring at Vivian, who seemed to be looking down at her with a laughable look in her eyes.

But soon, at a single word that came out, her eyes began to shake.

“Baron Monehen. An unremarkable commercial family.

I heard you run a small family business that deals in miscellaneous goods, right?

Coincidentally, my family also has some involvement in that area, right?”

As Vivian’s face gradually came closer to her, Anne, who had sharpened her nervousness, was holding her breath and managing her expression.

“Perhaps goods will be supplied to us as we move up?

Then you are just a subcontractor who delivers goods to us.

In some ways, we work in the same industry, so is there any need for us to yell at each other like this?”

And Vivian brought her face so close that she could feel Anne’s soft breath on her ear. Her lips gently moved, and a low whispering voice began to be heard in Anne’s ear.

“I’m giving you one last chance, but kneel.

And I’ll forgive you if you lick my shoes until they’re clean.”

They say that when a person is truly angry to the core, their mind turns blank, but perhaps that was meant for a situation like the present.

Regardless of whether they were nobles or commoners, making someone kneel and telling them to lick one’s shoes was the greatest insult that could be given to a person.

And above all, the sight of Vivian, as if she was holding her precious family hostage, as soon as she finished speaking, she fell gently and smiled with a mean smile.

Looking at this, Anne was staring at her with a slightly dazed expression, with heat rising to her face.

And Vivian may have thought that expression was an expression of positivity, but Vivian slightly changed her posture and put one foot forward, showing off a shoe that had become dirty during swordsmanship practice.

However, Vivian, who put her foot forward, quickly tilted her head back as if she had already expected it, and her fist passed between them.

“Forgiveness… ? Who is who… !!

You’re threatening me with my family!!

Apologize!! Apologize… Awesome!!”

“Vivian!! Is this really crazy!! Hey, step on it!!”

Anne’s defiance, which was about to start screaming and running wild, ended with Vivian ducking her head and avoiding her, and the other gangly girls starting to attack her.

It is literally impossible for an ordinary freshman to fight against several gangsters, including upperclassmen.

Anne, who fell to the floor after being punched in the face and hitting her back against the locker, could only let out a groan in pain as she was trampled on by the gangsters surrounding her.

“Ugh… Huh… Ugh… !!”

After being kicked and trampled on for a while without stopping, Anne’s entire body became covered in dust on the floor, and even her shiny purple hair lost its luster and was emitting a dull color.

I could feel the pain not only on my slightly swollen face, but also on my throbbing body, which couldn’t be seen because it was covered by clothes, and that it was difficult to move even a single fingertip.

Even though Anne was moaning with difficulty, she was trying hard to hold back her tears and did not try to show her weakness.

And soon after the beating was over, Vivian approached her again, looked down at her with eyes as if she were looking at something dirty, and then turned around after saying one word.

“I definitely gave it a chance. Please look forward to it.”

Vivian passed Anne, who was lying on the floor, unable to move, and her gang began to follow.

At the moment when I thought everything was over, a gangster poured waste from a wooden bucket on Anne’s body lying face down on the floor, and the gangster who threw the bucket on the floor next to Anne also spat and quickly rushed Vivian away. It seemed like he was following along.

Anne, whose entire body was covered in bruises and covered in filth from head to toe just like last time, was in a truly miserable state. As soon as the signs of people around her disappeared, she began to struggle to get up from her seat.

My body was sore and painful, but I was okay.

Because I could solve it somehow if I tried hard.

‘still… Because I brought clothes… … ‘

I had to do something about the smell coming from my body covered in filth.

Because I hated listening to my classmates whisper again like last time, even more than their cold indifference.

However, when I slowly got up and opened the locker with all my strength, there were only pieces of fabric scattered around that had already been torn to shreds by something sharp.

Anne, who ended up collapsing into a situation she couldn’t even imagine, sat down again and squatted in place with her knees together.

Then, as she leaned back against the locker and buried her face between her knees, her shoulders began to slowly shake.

‘why… … I… … ‘

At that very moment, when she least expected it, Anne let out a shriek as a refreshing splash of water was splashed on her head.

“Aaaaa!!”

Then, as if he had heard that noise, a rushing sound was heard from above, and soon a face was seen coming out of the window above and looking down.

“What!! There was someone there?

sorry!! Just wait there for a moment!!”

After hearing a voice shouting with a look of panic, the person who soon appeared in front of her unfolded the blanket he was holding in his hand, covered her with it, and appeared to be fumbling his words frantically.

“Are you okay? I thought I could spray it this way…

The locker was this way… Wrong direction… … under… …

I am so sorry… Come to think of it… you… … ?”

The man who had been giving her apples one after another looked at Anne’s face and pretended to recognize her, so Anne also raised her head and looked at his face.

A man’s soft-lined face, full of regret, is looking at her from a very close distance.

‘Associate Professor… Edward… … ‘

“I really didn’t do that on purpose… !!

Sorry!! I can’t live, I really…

First, I’ll give you something to change into, so let’s see what we can do!!

After all, it’s a cleaning product… It would be better to just wash it…

There is a shower room for the staff, so anyway, get up!! Slowly!!”

Even though there is a blanket between them, the feeling of strong arms gently wrapping around your waist and lifting you up without worrying about getting wet.

Anne stood up carefully, leaving her weak body there, and with his support, she was able to slowly walk to the faculty shower room.
