As a villain, I really don't want to be pursued by the heroine.

"The master took Alice in, fed her delicious food, provided her with a soft bed to sleep on, and even dressed her in beautiful, light clothes..."

"I see." Nia nodded slightly, but she always felt something was strange in her heart.

It was natural for the master to provide food and accommodation for the maid, but buying her nice clothes was a bit unusual, but it certainly had nothing to do with words like abuse.

Judging from Alice's tone, Roy seemed to be really nice to her.

Whenever Roy was mentioned, the blonde girl's expression softened, as if just thinking of that person made her immersed in an atmosphere more beautiful than the afternoon sun, warm and healing.

Looking at Ellie who seemed to be emitting a warm halo, Nia felt dazzled and inexplicably envious.

However, as she listened, Nia realized something was wrong.

"By the way, the master also said that Alice is special to him. On the day she was taken in, Alice was a little uneasy, but the master was so considerate and slept with her all night."

"Really? You slept with Alice all night...huh?!"

Nia was so shocked that she almost jumped off the ladder.

"Wait, wait, what did you say?!"

"The master slept with Alice for one night." Alice paused, looking a little disappointed. "Unfortunately, Alice has never slept with the master since then."

The cafeteria was still noisy, but Konya could no longer hear the sounds around her. Only one sentence kept echoing in her mind.

slept through.

He slept with Alice!

The sex education of the elves is very conservative, but Nia, who is keen on reading banned books, understands it very well. Not only does she understand it, she also understands a lot.

Nia silently raised the empty quilt and drank water from the void, trying to suppress the fear in her heart.

Calm down, calm down, maybe you just misunderstood.

Nia trembled as she lowered the life in her hand. She folded her hands and rested her chin on them. She stared at Alice and made a final confirmation: "Are you sure you just want to take a quick nap?"

"Of course not." Alice shook her head, lowered her eyes, a shy blush appeared on her face, and she murmured sweetly: "That was the happiest night Alice ever slept."

At this point, Niya's heart finally settled down.

No matter how you look at it, this kid was completely taken advantage of by Roy!

With just a meal, a bed, and some clothes, she was tricked into bed. Isn't this too easy to deal with?!

The key is, she is still a child!

At this moment, Nia's impression of Roy, which had improved slightly, fell back to the bottom.

After all, what noble young master would always ask a girl to call him "master"?! Even if she was his personal maid, it's too much!

And according to Alice's story, that bastard abandoned her after taking her virginity and turned his attention to Princess Charlotte, but Alice didn't realize it at all!

It seems that the reputation of 'bad boy' is well deserved!

She could even imagine the hateful scene of a scumbag and evil young man tricking a pure and innocent little maid into bed!

Nia hardened, her fist hardened.

Even though she was completely unaware, in her eyes, the blonde girl looked as miserable and pitiful as a canary imprisoned in a cage with broken wings.

"Alice, you've been deceived. Roy is a scumbag. He is simply...!"

The outpouring of emotion suddenly stopped.

Because Nia saw that the light blue eyes that were cast at her turned cold in an instant, chilling her to the bone.

"I should have said that the Master is a good person. Even Nia would not allow you to insult the Master."

The two looked at each other for a long time and fell into deep silence.

Nia was really unsure now.

She didn't expect Alice to react so violently.

This shows that Roy is likely to be really good to Alice.

But there is also a possibility that Roy, like the evil young man in the Forbidden Little Prince, has completely tamed Alice's body and mind with evil means!

No matter what the situation is, I can't persuade her.

Nia sighed in her heart, suppressed the anger on her face, put on her usual smiling face again, clasped her hands together and lowered her head.

"Oops, sorry, maybe I misunderstood."

"Since Alice said so, Roy must be a good person."

Seeing Nia's attitude, the coldness in Alice's eyes slowly dissipated.

However, no matter how brightly Nia smiled as if nothing had happened, Alice no longer had her usual relaxed and cheerful demeanor.

Both girls left a lot of lunch today.

The Magic Academy ends classes at 6 p.m. sharp, not a second late.

In the past, as soon as the school bell rang, the impatient Nia would disappear like the wind, dragging her two best friends to play cards, go shopping, or go fishing - anyway, she would not study.

But today, she didn't have the usual interest. As soon as she returned to the dormitory, she lay on the chair with her legs apart and told her best friends what happened at noon with a sad face.

Nia's two best friends were the first group of friends she made when she first entered school, and they were also her roommates.

Among them, the petite, dark-skinned hot girl from the South China Sea is called Jenny, and the gray-haired girl from the Winter Empire with a gentle and quiet temperament is called Amy.

After listening to Nia's story, the two girls looked at each other and came to the same conclusion.

"Hey, it sounds like he's a scumbag who'll abandon you after having fun with you! What a pity, he's such a handsome guy."

"I heard that Roy Ironblad was once a villain in the kingdom. Even though his reputation has improved recently, he still can't change his nature."

"As expected..." Nia smiled bitterly. She was not surprised that they thought so.

Even she herself felt so.

Alice was too innocent, and was probably being played around with by the other party.

Seeing Nia's conflicted expression, Amy sighed and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you. Even if he's a scumbag, it's Alice's own choice, right?"

However, Nia clenched her fists and angrily said, "How can it be okay? Alice is not only my friend, but she also gave me lunch. If Roy really is the scumbag who abused her, how could I just stand by and watch her die?!"

Jenny on the side laughed dryly: "Well said, so can you pay me back for the drinks I owe you last night?"

Nia ignored her best friend's complaints, but the more she thought about it, the more scared she became.

It would have been fine if she didn't know before, but now when she thought that Alice might be locked up in a small dark room and abused by Roy, she felt very upset.

Even if it was just a possibility, it made Nia extremely anxious.

Nia suddenly stood up from her chair, a look of determination on her face: "No, I have to go and confirm it myself!"

Chapter 28 Nia Saves the Beauty (×)

The night is quiet and the lights are warm.

Inside the cabin, the warm fire outlined Roy's gentle face.

"Alice, are you sure you're explaining this to me?"

"Yeah." Alice nodded slightly and said optimistically: "Don't worry, at least Alice's friends will understand the master!"

Roy fell silent after hearing this.

[Nia Jasmine]: Favorability -55 (Dislike and Suspicion)

No, what the hell did you say?! Why did your favorability drop?!

After a few days, not only did it fail to achieve results, it also had a counterproductive effect, forcing Roy to adjust his strategy.

In the original novel, Nia, upon learning that Alice was being abused by "Bad Boy Roy," begins to pick a fight. Because Nia wants to hide her identity, she avoids direct confrontation. Instead, she resorts to simple yet effective pranks like throwing paint, smashing windows, throwing tomatoes and rotten eggs, and drawing faces on the doorway, driving "Bad Boy Roy" to a state of impotence and rage.

Although it's not fatal, Roy still wants to have a good sleep, so how can he let her do what she wants?

So Roy visited the [Favorability Exchange Area] after a long absence and picked out an item specifically for Nia.

Slime Mine

[Introduction]: A common defensive item among magic apprentices during the Second Age, crafted from the bones of slimes. This item automatically attacks intruders and was often placed in women's dormitories to prevent male students from peeping.

[Effect]: This item can be placed inside a building. It will automatically detect intruders within a 300 square meter range based on the creature's heartbeat and attack them. The attack is in the form of a transparent, colorless mucus that greatly restricts the opponent's movement.

【Price Favorability 45】

The core ability of [Forest Elf] is [Wind Hermit], which can use the element of wind to hide her body and suppress her breath to the extreme. Even opponents with higher sequences may not be able to detect her breath.

Compared to it, even Roy's [Cloud Cloak] is much inferior.

However, even if one hides their breath and figure, it does not mean that they do not exist. As long as they are alive and their heart is still beating, they cannot escape detection by the [Slime Mine].

Although Roy didn't want to be an enemy of Nia, he always had to be prepared for the worst.

To be honest, it was funny to see the "evil boy Roy" being made miserable by Nia in the original work, but when Roy thought about his own home being ruined by that girl, he couldn't laugh.

Roy planned to stay up later just in case.

"It's almost time. Alice, go take a shower and get some rest early." After setting up the slime mines, Roy glanced at the clock on the wall and gave the order.

Unexpectedly, the maid politely said, "No, the master should wash first. Alice can wash later."

"Hey, it's just a shower, there's no need to be so formal." Looking at the polite blonde girl, Roy suddenly felt helpless.

It would have been fine if Alice had always taken care of him in the lord's mansion, but now that they were both students, Alice still cared so much about the difference between master and servant, which made Roy feel bad.

Besides, Roy felt embarrassed to let a girl use the bathroom after him.

Just as the master and servant were trying to shirk responsibility, a dark and swift figure appeared at the border of the self-built area in the dark night.

The leaves rustled in the evening breeze.

"Who's there?!"

A black-haired female teacher shouted sternly and looked towards the bushes, only to find that there was no one there, only the unchanging trees standing quietly in their place.

The magic academy has a free spirit, but that doesn't mean there are no rules.

Like all colleges around the world, firstly, they have to prevent promiscuous relationships between men and women. Secondly, the students come from all over the world and there are often conflicts of power. To prevent students from plotting against each other privately, teachers will patrol regularly at night to catch bad kids who violate the curfew.

Unfortunately, for Nia, a Sequence 8 Forest Elf, a leader of the Emerald Council's generation, who had enjoyed playing with the Council Guard since childhood, the teachers' patrol network was as full of holes as cheese.

Nia, dressed in a dark green cloak and dressed like a ranger, had already stepped into the self-built area and quietly approached Roy's residence.

The dark green eyes flashed with a hunter's coldness in the darkness.

Roy is now a "famous" figure among the freshmen, and it is not easy to find out his address.

Nia wanted to see with her own eyes Roy's truest side in private.

If the other person is really a good person as Alice said, that would be the best.

But Nia thought the possibility was as ridiculous as a goblin climbing a tree.

Roy Ironblad, most likely as rumored, is a 'bad boy'!

It would be fine if he was just a scumbag, but if he really bullied Alice ruthlessly like those forbidden little uncles, then as her friend, I can't leave her alone no matter what!

After making up her mind, Nia quietly came to the window of the cabin, pricked up her ears and listened to the movements inside.

Unfortunately, the soundproofing in this room was surprisingly good. Even though Nia was a descendant of elves with excellent hearing, she could only hear roughly what was happening.

"...Let's go take a shower first..."

"No need... later..."

"Take a bath...be polite..."

When Nia heard it, her eyes trembled in shock and she almost couldn't help shouting.

This, this sounds like he is forcing Alice to take a bath with him?

Damn it, Alice is still a child, how could you treat her like this, you scumbag!

However, if Alice likes this, am I being too nosy?

Forced bathing was still a little different from torture. And she wasn't sure if Alice really hated it.

Nia squatted under the window, feeling conflicted for a while.

However, the sound in the room immediately made her change her mind.
