"...Young Master, it's morning. Please wake up."

"mhmm...five minutes..."

"Today is the first day we'll meet our classmates. If we're running late..."

"I don't care...just let me sleep a little longer..."

"..."

I stayed up all night in fear of getting stabbed by Kania while sleeping.

Of course, when Kania got up and tried to wake me up, I deliberately pretended to be asleep just to annoy her.

It may appear to be a pointless action, but each of these actions becomes a false evil point that can save the world.

[Acquired False Evil Points: 1 pt! (Poor Acting)]

To overcome the problems I'm facing right now, I immediately need to move on to the next phase. In other words, I need to work harder to commit more intense evil than ever before.

"...Ha, then I'll leave first. I hope I'm not late..."

"Let's go together."

"...Yes?"

"If you're my attendant, you should go with me. Wait here for a minute."

"..."

She has been trained as a butler in our family since childhood. So she has a sort of obsessive-compulsive disorder for following set rules and regulations and terribly hates breaking them.

So, if I make her late on the first day... I'll be able to earn quite a lot of points.

"...Young Master. Please, let me help you prepare immediately..."

"Am I a kid? Stay still. I can handle this on my own."

I stopped Kania from trying to help me, then started packing as slowly as possible.

"Please, Young Master..."

"..."

Then Kania, who was watching me, broke out in a cold sweat and hurried me along.

"Let's see...books... writing utensils...hmm, shall I take a quill or a fountain pen?"

"Young Master, we're running out of time. Let's take everything first and then-"

"Which one do you prefer? Kania?"

"...the fountain pen."

"Okay, then I'll take the quill."

"!"

After wasting time like this for a while, Kania lowered her head and muttered suddenly.

"...Young Master, we only have a minute left. Please allow me to leave."

"Wait, I haven't decided what brooch I'm going to put on yet."

"D-Did I do...something wrong?"

I was casually rummaging through my brooches when I saw Kania glaring at me with a resentful expression while asking a question.

I wanted to tell her that trying to kill me is a mistake. But I decided to remain silent since it's all my fault and karma.

"If you tell me, I'll rectify it. So please forgive me..."

"Kania, you like fountain pens, don't you?"

"...Yes."

But as she kept speaking, I took the treasured fountain pen that she always carried out of her pocket and spun it around while answering her questions.
