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

Chapter 109: Do My Best (4)

"How did you clear it? Please tell us. We barely found the entrance yesterday. I promise I'll repay the favor!"

"We got caught in some debuff magic and barely escaped. Please, Theo! Let us know what's next. Anything at all would be great!"

"The rise of the lowest-ranked student! Theo! Nice!"

Students all around me were either seeking information, expressing envy, or gazing at me with admiration.

...It was suffocating.

They even know that we cleared it.

Predictable.

While I was off searching for the hidden piece, Travis and Monica must have spread the news.

As proof, the two looked at me with pride, like parents watching their child who just won first place in a spelling bee contest.

'Well, this will be good for my reputation.'

Of course, I won't be telling them anything.

Keeping my composure under the students' gaze, my attention shifted to Andrew, who was equally surrounded.

"Andrew, did you really incinerate hundreds of small zombies? Wow, no one in the first year could do that. It must have been hard for you too, right? You really are a genius mage!"

"Tell us how you did it, please~ I promise I'll pay you back, okay?"

Andrew was soaking in the praise and attention with a delighted face.

"······."

Ah, how adorable.

Yes, Andrew has suffered a lot.

He also followed my orders well.

Enjoy it, you fool.

As I attempt to escape from the crowd of students—

"Theoooooooo~"

A bubbly golden-haired elf embraced me.

"······Siena."

"Hehe, Theo. I've missed you so, so much!"

As she said this, Siena vigorously rubbed her face against my chest.

Despite being 150 years old, her behavior was even more childish than 14-year-old Jang Woohee's.

Fortunately, elves don't wear makeup, so my clothes remained clean.

'But this is getting troublesome.'

I wonder how she'll react when I scare her spirit away with the divine beast.

Would she post elven warriors on me?

I don't dislike Siena.

She's given me an [Elixir of Stamina Recovery], which you can't buy even with money, twice without expecting anything in return.

Even when hunting 'Turning White,' she didn't expect any compensation.

If it weren't for her clinginess, she would be tolerable...

"Give me some space, Siena."

I'm not used to being the center of attention, especially not like this.

The constant sensation near my chest is also hard to ignore.

Surprised by Siena's forwardness, the other students made way, turning their attention to their own team members.

Regardless, Siena did not let go of me.

"I don't want to, hehe. ...But, Theo. Something feels different about you. I feel a nasty aura from you."
