A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 1] Chapter 67
[Vol. 1] Chapter 67: Are You Inside?
The Pulis Academy has two extreme factions concerning noble and commoner students, both of which are presence that make people want to keep their distance.
The extreme noble faction despises commoner students, often bullying those they find disagreeable, ultimately forcing them to drop out.
However, unlike the noble faction’s methods against commoner students, the extreme commoner faction’s first target of animosity isn’t the nobles; rather, it’s commoner students who have good relations with or aspire to climb the social ladder by associating with nobles.
The extreme commoner faction believes that it’s precisely because these commoners act as lackeys for the nobility that the arrogance of the nobles is allowed to flourish, leading to the gradual decay of the entire Sith Empire.
The solution is to deal with those commoner students who grovel and curry favor with the nobility!
Correct their thinking and let them know that blindly pleasing the nobles is a mistake!
As for the commoner students targeted by them, although they may not be forced to drop out, a constant stream of insidious tactics makes life in the academy unbearable for ordinary commoner students.
Very few students can endure, and most end up voluntarily dropping out, succumbing to depression.
Even those commoner students who, forcibly influenced by the extreme commoner faction, persist until graduation usually carry psychological illnesses throughout their lives, which are difficult to cure.
Therefore, ordinary commoner students, upon encountering these two extreme factions, avoid them like snakes and scorpions, fearing being targeted by them…
Some commoner students have dared to suggest that the extreme commoner faction is a bully who fears the strong, if they have the ability to deal with commoners, why not confront the arrogant nobles and stop oppressing the commoners!
In response, the extreme commoner faction did not provide a direct answer. However, shortly afterward, a shocking event occurred.
One of the members of the extreme commoner faction, who had been forced to drop out, was responsible for a brutal attack on a noble student outside the gates of the Pulis Academy, resulting in severe injuries and disfigurement… The assailant turned out to be the expelled member of the extreme commoner faction!
Although the commoner who was expelled faced severe consequences for attacking a noble, they gained notoriety overnight, causing even the extreme noble faction at the Pulis Academy to want nothing to do with these fanatics.
However, the extreme commoner faction did not become arrogant and forget their manners. They continued their usual practice of targeting commoner students who had good relations with the nobility, avoiding direct confrontation with the aristocracy.
It wasn’t surprising that Ifia became a target for the extreme commoner faction.
Even though Amelia Barlen, the daughter of the duke, was an admirable noble without the bad habits and arrogance of other nobles, Ifia’s association with her was deemed a sin that required correction.
“She’s currently in the limelight. It would be too obvious if we act immediately.”
“Yeah, what if she complains to the nobles? She’s the Duke’s daughter… Our group has never encountered such a high-ranking noble. Maybe we should wait!”
“Why wait? Even if the Duke’s daughter retaliates, we won’t just endure it quietly.”
Perhaps it was youthful recklessness, or maybe the extreme commoner faction was considered untouchable like mad dogs, but the newly joined students of the extreme commoner faction were full of spirit.
They felt there was no need to shrink back at the academy, so they openly discussed these matters in the classroom, albeit in hushed voices.
No attempt to conceal their intentions.
This caught the attention of Irene, who was sitting nearby. Upon hearing their conversation, a slight smile played on her lips. Since the previous attempt to provoke Ifia using Fiona had failed, maybe these extreme fanatics could achieve what she couldn’t. Ifia should be made to drop out!
“Irene, look at this! Ronnie gave me this silver ring. It’s so beautiful!”
While Irene was secretly anticipating the situation, Fiona, her desk mate, once again flaunted something to her, intentionally extending her hand with the ring, a blatant expression of triumph on her face.
However, Fiona’s skin was relatively fair, making any scars and bruises quite conspicuous.
Irene frowned in confusion as she looked at Fiona’s arm. The parts not covered by her sleeves revealed numerous green and purple bruises, and upon closer inspection, there were even bite marks.
Fiona had been coming and going at odd hours lately. What could she be up to?
Perhaps sensing Irene’s gaze, Fiona quickly withdrew her hand. The smile on her face was somewhat strained, but she still spoke with forced composure, “My dear Ronnie is really generous. After I go home today, I’m going to buy him an even better gold ring!”
Then she forcibly changed the topic, “Hmph, even if Ifia doesn’t lend me money, there are still kind-hearted people who lend me.”
As she spoke, Fiona glanced at Ifia. The embarrassment and resentment from the previous outright refusal welled up unconsciously, and as she looked at Ifia, her gaze carried a hint of resentment.
If Ifia had lent her the money, she wouldn’t have…
With these thoughts, Fiona subconsciously clenched her fist, and her whole being fell into a kind of frenzied anger.
“Fiona, you have money now, right? When can you repay me?”
It wasn’t until Irene spoke that Fiona seemed to be suddenly awakened, her thoughts returning to reality.
Fiona, who had come back to her senses, forced a smile at Irene and didn’t immediately repay the money, saying, “Irene, you know this is money someone else lent me. I’ll pay you back next month!”
After saying this, Fiona didn’t continue to boast. Instead, she rested her head on the desk.
This made Irene stare at the back of Fiona’s head with a gloomy expression, realizing that she had to find other suitable companions as soon as possible.
Ifia is currently very confused.
She just suddenly needed to use the restroom, and taking advantage of the end of the class, she hurriedly ran to the restroom.
After finishing in the restroom stall and trying to push open the door… but she couldn’t!!!
The door of the restroom stall can only be locked from the inside, and she has already unlocked the lock. Why can’t she open the door?
No way! Could it be! Is she being locked in the restroom by someone!
[System, what’s going on? I can’t get out!]
[Host, according to the system’s detection, you’ve been intentionally locked in the restroom. In human terms, this is considered campus bullying.]
However, the system’s response confirmed Ifia’s suspicions.
She’s actually being bullied and locked in the restroom!
This is the first time she has encountered such a situation. In the past, she only saw such scenarios in movies or news.
[Huh? System, why didn’t you warn me aloud!]
[The system will only give an audible warning when the host is in imminent danger. Being locked in the restroom for a while does not pose a threat of harm.]
[……]
It seems that one cannot completely rely on the system’s warnings. Not everything that is dangerous will be alerted.
Now that she’s locked in, she’ll just have to wait for rescue and chat with the system during that time. As for whether Ifia will get angry because of the bullying?
No big deal.
What’s the point of getting angry!
Anyway, she will get revenge, and no one should even think about running away!
[System, your warning function isn’t that great. What if something happens to me while I’m locked in the restroom?]
[Sorry, host, only by upgrading the system can you obtain more comprehensive services.]
[How do I upgrade?]
[It’s simple. Once the host completes the world-saving mission, the system can gain energy for an upgrade!]
As they chatted, the conversation veered back to the topic of saving the world mission. Ifia smiled and closed the chat box, refusing to talk to the system again.
At the moment, she felt that it was okay to make do with it.
After all, free is the best!
“Ifia, are you in there?”
As Ifia finished her conversation with the system, the voices of Lucy and Jessica suddenly came from outside. Ifia quickly raised her hand to knock on the partition of the restroom stall and shouted, “I’m here!”
Hehe, little bullies, your nemesis is about to arrive!
