What? Which part made his likeability gauge increase?

Professor Ilya spoke in an indifferent tone. “It’s a punishment for your rudeness.”

I became more confused. Why did his heart gauge increase when he said it was a punishment? I didn’t remember setting up Professor Ilya has strange taste… Was it like a gap created when games became a reality?

Anyway, if it continues like this, I’ll have to be wary of increasing his likeability. The more likeability he felt for me, the harsher punishment may be. Still, I thought it was a rather generous punishment and asked Professor Ilya.

“When should I finish reading them?”

“You’d better read it as soon as possible. You have to understand all of that to be able to take the lecture this year.”

Does he mean to read everything before the lecture? The lecture would start tomorrow, so he wanted me to read it all in a day? Urgh. I like reading magic books, but I don’t think it’s physically possible. With this, it was confirmed that I would stay up all night.

I nodded with a darkened expression. “I understand. I will read and test them all.”

At the word ‘test,’ Professor Ilya raised one eyebrow slightly. I didn’t know the meaning behind that act. Just looking at his expression, it seemed like he was asking what nonsense I was talking about.

I wasn’t brave enough to be in an enclosed place where I was blocked from the eyes of the outside world with the archdevil, who was in the form of a human. Can I go out now?

Ilya didn’t respond much when I quietly stood up from my seat, holding the books in my arms. Phew. I guess it’s okay to leave now. I quickly bowed my head. “Then, I will leave now, Professor.”

Ilya nodded his head once.

I turned around and quickly left the lab. “Hua. I’m out of breath.”

Who would like to be alone with a professor? It was very different to be with a professor who was a real devil… rather than a devilish professor.  Moreover, he’s my counseling professor. I trudged toward the dormitory with a chuckle.

Since Valhalla was mostly attended by nobles, the schedule wasn’t as tight as Korean universities. On the first day of class, I did things other than classes, such as visiting my counseling professor or engaging in social activities. Still, I will have to finish these books in a day.

Suddenly, I wondered what would have happened to Libby and Damian. Still, I didn’t feel like visiting the entrance ceremony for freshmen. I’ve got too much on my plate.

I don’t think I will be able to read them all night, so let’s just read the books. I was visiting the dormitory manager and being guided to the annex that I would use for the next year.

“Lady Theresa!”

“Oh my! It’s really Lady Theresa!”

When I turned my head away, attracted by the voices of many people calling me, I saw a brilliant group of young ladies. They came up to me with a grin and chatted.

“Kyaa, long time no see! I was very, very bored because I couldn’t see Lady Theresa during vacation.”

“By the way! Did you receive the birthday present I sent you? It was very unfortunate that there was no party this time.”

“I’ve made a lot of new portrait cards of Lord Clyde!”

“But what happened in the lobby earlier? Lady Mimosa looked very upset. Did Demisa finally come to their senses and surrender to Clybe?”

Oh wow, it’s chaotic. I shook my head.

All of them were members of the Clybe. I could recognize them at once because they had a silver butterfly ornament studded with sapphire, which symbolizes the members of Clybe. For reference, Demisa’s emblem was a golden rose studded ruby.

I wasn’t wearing a silver butterfly ornament today, but everyone didn’t seem to wonder. Does that mean my position is solid and won’t be shaken even if I didn’t wear any ornament?  Thinking so didn’t make me feel so good…

I gloomily said, “I just greeted Mimosa to introduce my sister.”

They twinkled their eyes with curious expressions on their faces.

“Anyway, I heard about Lady Theresa’s younger sister. She must be being guided to school after finishing the entrance ceremony.”

“Lady seemed to be on good terms with your younger sister.”

“She is a great beauty! Of course, she’s nothing compared to Lady Theresa.”

Libby originally appeared as a freshman and, at the same time, was bullied by Clybe. It was because Clybe’s president was Theresa. However, this time, maybe because I went to school with her in a good atmosphere, Clybe was friendly to Libby.

“I hope everyone treats my sister well.”

“Of course! If it’s Lady Theresa’s younger sister, she’s a member of our Clybe family!”

If Clyde and Libby get closer, this shallow favor will be broken. When Libby chose the Clyde route, the biggest obstacles would be Theresa and Clybe. As long as I’m the president, Clybe won’t be able to bully Libby.

The problem was Damian. Damian was the character with the lowest difficulty level among the four male protagonists. The thing Damian detests and hates the most is nobles. Still, Libby has the peculiarity of living like a commoner because she was a member of a traveling theater troupe. That was a very important point.

[“You’re different from the nobles I know”]

This was what Damian said when his likeability reached three hearts.

Libby is a character with so many attractive elements, including her personality, appearance, and her unfortunate past, which makes anyone can’t help but love her. Sooner or later, if Damien realized Libby’s true worth, they would naturally come to her.

If that’s the case, Mimosa won’t stay still.

Of course, the likeability won’t accumulate in a short period of time. Still, it would be better to organize the villains to some extent, just in case. Is there any way to get rid of all fan clubs?

“Lady Theresa?”

I was lost in my thoughts for a while, but when my name was called, I woke up from my thoughts.

“Ah, sorry. What were we talking about?”

The young ladies were startled.

“Sor…ry?! Please don’t say that. Lady Theresa is heartless and relentless, and we deserve to be treated like worms!”

“Right, right. There’s nothing for the noble Princess Theresa should ever apologize to any of us. Please look down on me more!”

Uh… is this an insult? They’re blaming me now, right?

However, their expressions were extremely serious. That’s why I’m telling you not to surround yourself with people who only say nice things about you.

They weren’t like a self-esteem keeper, but a truck with a broken brake that was on the verge of ruin together. It didn’t sound particularly nice to hear, but…

“By the way, Lady Theresa! Where are you going now?”

“Dormitory.”

“Dormitory?”

The young ladies tilted their heads and soon found the townhouse made for nobles to use, which made them even more curious.

“Oh my, it’s my first time seeing a dormitory in the third grade. It’s like a very small toy house!”

A toy house? Of course, it will look like a toy house compared to the mansions where nobles live. Still, it took the form of a wealthy village. I understand a little bit why Raul made such a fuss in the morning.

They’re reacting to this extent, but if real Theresa saw this place, she must have cursing, saying what kind of chicken coop it is.

Anyway, isn’t it too much? Which university dormitory will give you a two-story detached house? I was going to reap the benefits of that ridiculous setup.

The janitor who guided me to the dormitory gave me the key. “You can use this place from now on.”

When I accepted the key, the young ladies made a frightened expression.

“Lady Theresa, are you going to stay in the dormitory?!”

“Yes.”

“Will you be alright? The number of maids that can be brought from the family is limited to one, right?”

“This building doesn’t even have a yard! Maybe it’s because the house is too small.”

I shrugged my shoulders. “I don’t think it’s going to be that hard. The dorm is pretty too. I like it because it feels like a vacation home.”

“Lady Theresa… Is everything alright?”

Everyone looked worried as if my answer wasn’t like Theresa’s at all.

At that time, the young lady who tied her hair in pigtails exclaimed. “Oh my god, I really can’t beat Lady Theresa!”

…What?  I blinked slowly because I didn’t understand.

“Lord Clyde is also living in a dorm this year! I gave up because I thought I couldn’t live in a dorm. You’re so amazing.”

It was only then the young ladies were very surprised with an expression that they knew why I chose the dormitory.

“Indeed…!”

“As expected from Lady Theresa. I will try harder too!”

“Lady also succeeded in breaking up your engagement this time. No matter how much I think about it, young master Fabio didn’t suit Lady Theresa. I’m glad.”

Ummm. I felt like I had become a sasaeng fan unexpectedly, so I was a bit nervous.

“I just chose the dormitory to concentrate on my studies.”

“Yes? Hahaha!”

The young ladies burst into laughter at the same time. They must have taken what I said as a joke.
