a dumbass gets isekai'd: the novella

22. the sexual tension between my fist and your face is through the roof

"We're intruding!" Grim boomed as the door was slammed open. "Where is Ruggie Bucchi?"

Ruggie did not appreciate being called out in the middle of class.

"Ugh, it's you guys again. No matter how much you beg, I'm not paying you back for that sandwich."

"Ruggie Bucchi. There's something we would like to ask of you about the consecutive incidents regarding the injury of selected players."

"Oh? That doesn't sound like a friendly accusation."

"Won't you come with us for a bit?"

Ruggie flinched at Cater's gaze. "I get it already! So please, don't hurt me or anything."

"Now then, I know that he won't easily confess, but it will be troublesome if we fall victim to his unique magic." Riddle told the group, thinking Ruggie couldn't hear them. "If he attacks us, I'll use Off With Your He-"

"Oh, what's this? Will you be okay using such strong magic without your magical pen, Riddle?"

"Eh?"

Riddle felt around for his pen, but it was nowhere to be found.

"Huh? My magical pen's not here!"

Grim looked over at Cater. "Cater, your pen's gone too!"

"No way! Really!?"

Ruggie twirled the two pens in his hands. "Shishishi! You guys are spoiled rich kids through and through, huh? You were both so wide open! So vulnerable."

"When did he use his magic to get your magic pens!?"

"Aw c'mon, I don't have to use magic to do something so simple. I feel like I'm gonna get jumped if I stay, so I'm gonna dash! Bye bye!"

Ruggie took off, as Riddle's anger started bubbling.

"Wait! It's off with your head if you don't stop at once! Off With Yo-"

"Wait a second, Riddle!" Cater grabbed Riddle's shoulder to restrain him. "You just recovered from blot, so you shouldn't use magic much!"

"Aw! Your pink clothes for flamingo feeding duty were amazing! The pink leopard print was the best part." Ace laughed, whilst Deuce wanted to die from embarrassment.

"I had no choice! Those were the only pink clothes I had."

"Ah, Acey and Deucey! Perfect timing!"

The first years were curious as to why Cater had come running towards them. That is, until they saw Riddle absolutely seething with rage, and Yuu giving him uneasy glances.

"The culprit behind the consecutive accidents and the guy who stole our magical pens ran away!

Go and capture Ruggie Bucchi right now! You know what will happen if you fail, don't you!?"

Yuu pushed Ace and Deuce towards where the suspect ran off to.

"Alright comrades, off we go!"

Ace and Deuce, who had just finished work, were now forced to go on a wild goose chase.

Ruggie mocked the first years from a tree branch, amused at their poor attempts to catch them.

"Shishishi! Three of you after me and that's the best you can do? I'm not even sweating!"

The first years were on life support at this point.
