I Became A Third-Rate Villain In The Hero Academy [On Hold]

Chapter 79: S&M (2)

I tried to clear up the misunderstanding.

Even with the power of [Twisted Noble's Dignity] at my disposal, it was tough to keep my cool in the midst of all this chaos.

I was sweating bullets.

"I didn't mean for things to turn out like this. I just wanted to handle things properly," I explained.

At first, they didn't seem to believe me.

But as I continued to explain, they began to nod along.

"Oh, I see. I misunderstood. I apologize, student Theo. I haven't been this shaken up in a while."

"We're sorry too. We didn't think it could be, but what we saw was pretty rough... In a way, you did handle the situation properly, just like you said."

"...It's alright."

I felt wronged, but I understood why they were upset.

At least the misunderstanding was cleared up.

They probably felt sorry for me too.

'Haaaah my luck. I'm always getting accused of stuff, but it never gets any easier.'

The state Melon was in wasn't helping.

I'd had her tied up to make her feel unsettled, but I hadn't expected her to lose it quite like this.

Rok looked at Melon, who was still passed out, and then turned to the rest of the group.

"She doesn't seem to be waking up. Let's take her to the interrogation room."

""Understood, Senior Professor.""

The other teachers carefully untied Melon and put mana seal cuffs on her hands and feet.

They blindfolded her and gagged her as well.

'Good. Clean work.'

They're thorough.

I can leave it to them.

"We've got her secured, Senior Professor."

"Good job. Let's head back now."

They carried Melon onto the private carriage.

Noctar and I followed them.

"We will depart now."

We quickly arrived at the interrogation room in the Hero Department.

------

We were in the basement of the Hero Department, inside the interrogation room.

Melon was sitting in a chair, still out cold.

A healer was checking her over.

Across from them, Rok, Noctar, and I were watching.

Soon, the healer came out of the room.

"She's physically okay. Her life isn't in danger. The reason she isn't waking up is psychological." the healer said quietly, looking at Rok.

"I see. You've worked hard," Rok replied.

"I'll be leaving then."

"Go ahead."

The healer left.

Rok, his face stern as he studied Melon, addressed the others in the room.

"Everyone can head out. If anything happens, don't hesitate to ask for help. You all worked hard."

"Yes, we'll be on our way."

"Understood."

Bowing their heads, the staff members left the interrogation room.
