I, the Villain, Want to Save Myself, But the Yandere Heroines Disagree - Chapter 73

With Hecatia acting as her training partner, Litte not only gained practical experience but also benefited immensely from the magical insights Hecatia shared during their sessions.

Tyril’s actions hadn’t harmed Litte; instead, they had made her stronger.

Meanwhile, Tyril returned to Donny’s dormitory in the afternoon, looking utterly defeated.

“Reporting to Young Master Donny…” Tyril said, swallowing nervously as he stood before Donny, who was seated at his desk. He gave a deep bow before continuing.

“As per your instructions, I originally planned to stage an ‘accident’ during the magic practice session to disfigure Litte. However, our class teacher, Hecatia, seems to be intentionally protecting him, and I wasn’t able to succeed…”

“Moreover, I was expelled from the class by Professor Hecatia. I’m not even sure if she has the authority to do that, but it seems I won’t be able to continue carrying out the task you assigned me.”

“Hmm.” Donny nodded and gestured for Tyril to come closer.

“Tyril,” he suddenly said.

“Yes, Young Master?”

“What do you think of the way I’ve treated you?”

“Young Master has always been good to me,” Tyril responded without hesitation.

“Good. I won’t blame you for failing this task.” Donny said this as he pulled a pouch of coins from his desk and handed it to Tyril. “I know you’ve worked hard, even going so far as to offend your professor on my behalf.”

“This money is for you—a reward for your loyalty to me over the years.”

“Young Master…” Seeing that Donny wasn’t angry and was instead being so understanding, Tyril was genuinely moved.

He had come here expecting to be beaten for his failure. Instead, not only was he spared, but he was also rewarded with a hefty sum of money.

“However, I’ve come up with an excellent plan that will allow you to complete the original task I gave you. And this task is one that only you can carry out,” Donny said, revealing his true purpose.

Tyril, however, didn’t think much of it. Holding the money in his hands, he felt so indebted to Donny that he was ready to die for him.

“Young Master Donny, please tell me what to do. As long as it’s within my power, I’ll do it without hesitation!”

“Good. With those words, I can rest easy.” Donny patted Tyril on the shoulder and then leaned in to whisper something in his ear.

Hearing this, Tyril’s expression turned to one of shock.

“Young Master Donny, if the disciplinary committee or the Student Council finds out about this, we’ll be…”

“That’s why I trust in your abilities,” Donny said, looking at Tyril. “Do your best, Tyril. Don’t let me down.”

“Understood.” Moved by Donny’s faith in him, Tyril nodded resolutely. “I won’t fail you!”

Two days later, at noon, after class, a quiet female classmate approached Litte.

“Um, Litte, I… I have something to tell you. Could we talk in the nearby grove?”

“Ah, sure.” Litte nodded.

The girl had always been quiet in class and wasn’t part of Tyril’s little gang, so Litte didn’t suspect anything.

That afternoon, Litte followed the girl into the grove.

“So, what did you want to talk about?” Litte asked, looking at the girl with some confusion.

“Litte, could you come a little closer?”

“Uh, alright.” Litte nodded and stepped closer.

Suddenly, the girl began removing her clothes.

“Hey, what are you—”

“Ah! Help! He’s assaulting me!” The girl screamed, cutting off Litte’s words.

As soon as she shouted, several people emerged from the surrounding trees.

Litte recognized them—they were Tyril’s lackeys.

“My goodness, Litte, I can’t believe you’re this kind of person!” one of them exclaimed, pointing at Litte with a look of shock.

Another quickly ran out of the grove.

“No, listen to me, let me explain…” Litte tried to defend herself, but the lackeys only smirked.

When the disciplinary committee members arrived, the girl had already put her clothes back on and was crying pitifully.

“What’s going on here?” one of the committee members asked.

“Let me explain!” One of the students who had witnessed the scene raised his hand and dramatically recounted the events, embellishing the story with plenty of fabricated details.

The committee members listened, looking skeptical, then turned to the girl.

“Is what he said true?” one of them asked.

“Mm.” The girl nodded tearfully.

“No, you can’t just falsely accuse me like this!” Litte said, her voice tinged with urgency. “She was the one who brought me here and undressed in front of me. I didn’t do anything!”

“If you don’t believe me, you can check! I didn’t touch her at all…”

“Do we have to wait until you’ve actually assaulted her before it counts as a violation?” one of the committee members said harshly. “You’d better not resist. Come with us now, or we won’t hesitate to use force.”

“…” Litte was silent for a moment before nodding.

If she resisted now, it would only make her look more suspicious. She had no choice but to go with the committee members.

“As for you, young lady, we understand your situation, but we’ll need you to come with us as well to provide your testimony,” the committee member said to the girl, his tone noticeably softer.

“When we get to the disciplinary office, please give us a full account of what happened. After that, you’re free to go.”

“Ah, alright…”

—

Half an hour later, in the disciplinary office, the committee members were reviewing the testimonies.

“Well…” The girl, whose name was Anya, began her account. “Before class this morning, Litte told me he had something to say and asked me to meet him in the grove after lunch. I thought it was strange—why couldn’t he just tell me in class? Why did it have to be in the grove?”

“Then Litte said it was something private and needed a secluded place to talk.”

“I thought about it. Litte’s always had a good reputation, so I agreed.”

“But when we got to the grove, he… he suddenly grabbed me, said he liked me, and started pulling off my clothes. I was so scared that I screamed. Luckily, there were other students nearby. Otherwise, I don’t know what might’ve happened…”

Anya’s voice trembled, and tears welled up in her eyes.

“Alright, we understand,” the committee member taking her testimony said. “Don’t worry, Anya. We’ll make sure justice is served.”

“Thank you…” Anya replied softly.
