Chapter 84: Go to the Police Station112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZmCj48vZY
The large infirmary went silent all of a sudden, the air thick with tension. The faint hum of the fluorescent light above was the only sound left.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7k1ciWa6N
Vigne’s eyes widened as she stepped forward. Her face flickered between shock, hesitation, disappointment, and sorrow. Her voice trembled slightly when she finally spoke. "You... you two... what were you doing?! This is the school infirmary..."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdlCHyBlpl
Yeah, thanks, I can see that!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8P1jvdRCj6
And for the record, nothing happened here! Not a single thing!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy10UgbyfVJ
You people just have the worst timing imaginable!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweOGzfc1FA
"Lewd! Shameless! Hentai!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZR0i2eOC6K
A cold voice pierced through the silence. Gabriel appeared behind Vigne, glaring down at Kouya like he was the scum of the earth.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA2FUMBLMk
Before he could even reply, another voice piped up, full of curiosity and excitement.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0ThSKMnt8
"Eh? What’s going on? Let me see, let me see!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ulg7oru5u
Satania’s red hair bobbed as she peeked inside, only to have Gabriel shove her face back out.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfawrVpxzoy
"Don’t look! You’ll get a stye!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4dw0n8naI
"Huh? Why would I get a stye?" Satania asked, genuinely puzzled.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0L9dTvVTF1
Gabriel huffed, crossing her arms.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQ9eNY9c5N
"Because it’ll stab your eyes like a needle, that’s why."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgXagm4yQk
Stop lying through your halo, damn it!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGLN4zuwLf
You personally grabbed it before—you know perfectly well it’s not sharp!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07u0dQEw3v
Rikka finally managed to stand up, still blushing fiercely, her voice small and shaky.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxoe8tJIIG
"D-Don’t misunderstand! We were just... just..."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeulHUE8oa
Just your ass!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP76oO07stI
For the love of everything holy, stop hesitating at the most suspicious part! You’re making me sound like a criminal!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZg94iECix
"I’m telling you, it’s all a misunderstanding. Do you believe me?" Kouya said, his expression dark.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8gy0WyBqn
The scene probably looked bad, sure—but it was nothing like what they were thinking. There was nothing to feel guilty about.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwe1aWmBiE
Vigne took a slow breath, then walked further inside. Her sharp violet eyes swept over every corner. She examined both Kouya and Rikka, her gaze landing on their perfectly neat clothes. Her expression softened, if only slightly.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1WCXCtKss
It was the infirmary, after all—a public space, with the door wide open. Nobody with half a brain would try something indecent in here.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3gzGhIAia
Still, her tone was icy as she said, biting her lip, "Kouya, please step outside. We’ll take care of Rikka."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrp0m3heM3B
She hesitated, her voice growing heavier.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOcUUjblw9
"And Kouya... even if Rikka is... a little unusual, that doesn’t give you the right to take advantage of her."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATS1RZHPuz
Enough already!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRBbDtoFSF
She’s a chunibyo, not mentally handicapped! No one took advantage of anyone!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFtHzBzajZ
Kouya sighed and turned to leave—but then a loud gasp stopped him in his tracks.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94KkGw9Wq5
"Wait!" Satania pointed dramatically. "There’s blood on the sofa!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLqD7dNbyR
"B-Blood?!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LFGycr4TQ
Vigne froze. The others immediately leaned closer. Sure enough, a faint crimson stain marked the leather.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfhomEsEAv
Probably just from when Rikka’s knee reopened...112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLPwERM80J
But before Kouya could even open his mouth to explain, Satania pressed her fingers to her forehead and spoke in a low, detective-like tone.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVU5D8Axu4I
"If it was just a knee wound... then why is there blood up there?"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQ3ZDxN0t5
The room fell silent.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVe1eaSu6nI
Every girl’s gaze locked onto Kouya, their expressions a mix of suspicion and shock.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCn4zfPKBKz
Even Vigne’s hand trembled slightly as she pressed it against her chest. The temperature in the room felt like it dropped by ten degrees.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUdyoZKaqC
"Rikka... what happened exactly?"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDilfhlol7
Rikka puffed her cheeks, frowning. "It’s because Kouya was too rough earlier!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyE4rBkn2Ob
"W-What?!" Vigne’s voice cracked. Her face paled, and then her tone grew icy. "R-Rough?!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4qNPgJRCr
The temperature dropped further, frost practically forming in the air.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllszSweB4B
Rikka blinked innocently, completely unaware of what she was implying. "He used so much force that it started bleeding again..."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFg8MkUvODr
Vigne lowered her head, shadows covering her eyes. The silence grew oppressive, heavy enough to crush air itself.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTuAEbpfo9
Hey, can you not phrase it like that?!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9O1axHWsJ
I was cleaning your wound! That’s it!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ79SKxfYcQ
"And Kouya also told me to cover my mouth and not make any noise..."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVZq8fKZWx
The temperature dropped to absolute zero.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aNS1SO4JQ
Every girl’s expression darkened in unison.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeBka4ABCV
"Hentai!" Gabriel yelled, swinging her hand in a chopping motion. "Guess we’ll just cut it off!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyj7M3GQ2L
Cut off what, exactly?!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtK6u4an8Mj
Are you still hung up on that time you accidentally groped me?!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnb9pyHVXQV
Raphiel, normally full of teasing smiles, suddenly turned serious.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nFrtf91gN
"As much as I hate to say it, Kouya, using someone and pretending it didn’t happen... that’s awful."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnkcoPHgNU
Who did I use?!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrsPl3ekGY
I’m cleaner than tofu right now!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPOr7t1jvQ
Kouya looked toward Vigne desperately.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BWiJSF3qv
You’re the rational one here—you won’t jump to conclusions, right?112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlyWWZW3Ca
Vigne didn’t move. She just stared at him for a long, cold moment before parting her lips.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3WMfBW0cs
Her voice was calm, cutting, and final.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WpPeTy11v
"Go to the police."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYlCe8n6me
Of course.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKx4GHNspI
Of course it’s Vigne.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6xk48EweL
Wait—WHAT?!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbt6ufPpk3
Did she just say police?!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQxLni4BMx
Vigne turned away, her expression unreadable. Her gaze drifted toward the window, where sunlight glinted softly on the glass.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqOXpdAzEg
"If you turn yourself in, the sentence might be reduced..."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9K9GHPs4L
"Pfft—" Kouya almost choked.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5mQ3rN1zU
Fairness? Justice? Where the hell did those go?!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPpqybkwpd
There’s no proof! How am I already guilty?!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XPcCz2BkQ
This world’s gone mad!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcPbdCLfeK
...112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBvxIJSC1y
A few days later—it was Saturday.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2UvabwMjQ
The misunderstanding had finally been cleared up. Everyone realized that Kouya had done nothing wrong. Still, the memory of that humiliating scene lingered. The girls’ gazes were cold, their tone curt whenever they spoke to him.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7ON40spxh
Kouya tried to shrug it off. He’d seen worse. But even he had to admit—it stung a little.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSa6qNUt91w
That morning, just as he stretched and sat up in bed, his phone started buzzing.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeBetXpj6a
"Kouya-sama! Are you free today?"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJPFX94QLV
The voice was bright and full of energy—it was Tohru, the dragon maid. She sounded practically wagging her tail through the phone.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0DXXQQSTy
"Come have dinner at our new home tonight!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdIytVvjxy
"I’ll think about it," Kouya said flatly.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvmzzbbjo9
"Kouya-sama, the weather’s really nice today!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G0Pyt3H0g
"Mm."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bPoGWU5Oh
"Kouya-sama, it rained the other day! Did you bring an umbrella?"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcj8pwKP8T1
"Mm."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIT96hLQcma
"Kouya-sama—"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcn8JGbCFKx
"Mm."112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQNlsXZrmW
There was a pause... and then a loud pouty growl.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrh5HNkIp9x
"Kouya-sama, you’re bullying me!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HFyTsQlUF
He sighed. "What did I do now?"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdzQpK1faX
"Why haven’t you asked me about the new house yet?!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHLoS9cMSs
Her voice rose, full of mock indignation.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNXcv43sUu
Kouya could practically see her on the other side—tail swishing, puffing her cheeks, waiting for him to take the bait. For a dragon maid, she sure had mastered the art of acting like an overexcited puppy.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwrVRzSmCb
Fine. He’d humor her.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6pZZaHFlo
"So... you moved?"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWCU6lmcdu
"That’s right! We moved yesterday! Kanna, Kobayashi, and I found a gorgeous house—it’s so pretty!" she chirped, practically vibrating with pride.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29A8b6Seqd
"And you didn’t ask me to help?"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqlMkcZmr5
"We hired movers! Besides, it’s all girls’ stuff—it wouldn’t be proper for you to pack it!"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDrc0CVD7u
Her tone turned smug, almost singing with delight.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4z4Atptv4
"Now Kanna and I have our own rooms! Ehehehehe~"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYojJC1OUV
That giggle again!112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpbWkMhHDI
Even through the phone, Kouya could imagine her smug grin and wagging tail.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUvDhne2vS
Before he could say anything, another voice came through the line, dry and annoyed.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Sn6WmXsPv
"Stop giggling like an idiot," said Kobayashi.112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CSBEyN63H
"Kouya, I’m cleaning the place today, so come by tonight. We’ll celebrate the move with dinner, alright?"112Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZidfcv49O
