The Villainess With A Heroine Harem

Chapter 197 - Crystal’s Confrontation



━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Randy didn't know whether he should consider it fortunate or unfortunate, but Samantha's target had already shifted away from him after he stopped being Emilia's fiancé, and all that knowledge became more or less useless.

Letting all go to waste didn't sit right with Randy, and he decided to put it to good use, and make this the main focus of further research that he would be dedicating himself to in the future, aside from helping the White Deer with whatever they required him to do.

And as an upcoming researcher on the topic, he had of course approached the girl when he heard her lamenting about her big bro being an incorrigible siscon.

Much to the girl's shock, the advice from this seemingly unreliable guy actually worked!

Granted, her big brother was still a sis-con, but the mere fact that she now knew how to make him go away for a few hours was a hundred times better than she could have ever imagined!

Since then, impressed by his legendary insight into the mind of a sis-con, the girl started following in hopes of learning more of his 'art'.

Of course, Harry believed that the girl simply had a crush on Randy, thanks to his somewhat dashing looks and impeccable grades, but neither of the two ever suspected such a thing, leading the boy to feel left out and jealous for absolutely no reason.

Had Randy known his friend's thoughts, he would have started researching overthinking and mental gymnastics instead of the siscon disease.

Unfortunately, helping the girl out came at a great cost to Randy, as she had since started not just following him around, but also giving him weird titles.

Whether it was the 'Anti-Bro', which made him sound like some kind of villain, or the 'Bro-Repellant', which made him sound like some sort of bug spray, none of her titles were flattering. And the worst of them all, was the short form of 'Big Bro Begone Technique Angel'… B3TA.

Needless to say, a girl following him around and calling him a BETA of all things was good for neither his heart nor his reputation.

Some of the other students had already started believing strange things, and even thought that the two of them had some sort of strange relationship!

Randy could only lament it all in his heart though, because this girl was stubborn as a mule, and if it wasn't advice on how to get rid of her brother, she wouldn't be willing to listen to his words at all.

As for sharing his anti-siscon advice with Emilia? Randy didn't have a death wish, after all. If Samantha ever figured out he tried to influence her little sister 'negatively' in any way… he shuddered at the thought.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Despite all of his friend's protests and mockery, Randy still arrived at the back of the cafeteria, confident that it must be Emilia who asked for him, though the location did seem a little strange.

After all, who else could make that obsessive 'knight' Dixie make a move that went against her nature?

But much to his shock, there really was no Emilia waiting for him at the back of the cafeteria. Thankfully though, neither was there an ambush to beat his ass, and there was only a familiar blonde girl tapping her foot on the ground impatiently.

"Crystal Miller?!"

The thick disbelief in the boy's voice didn't mask his shock at all. Why would the previous number one genius of their school, someone who never once cared to approach anyone, have had him called here in such a roundabout way?

Moreover, why would she use Dixie to do it? No wait, did she even call him here, or was this all just a coincidence, and he was just misunderstanding?

Not to mention Randy, even his companions were shocked. They had expected that Randy would be getting the beatdown of his life here, but wasn't this the shy confession setup from a beautiful girl?

Before Emilia's name spread as it did, the most famous girl among the freshmen was, without a doubt, Crystal Miller. Obviously, neither of them was unfamiliar with who she was.

As Randy had moved from class A, and the blonde girl had sought him out like this, didn't it just mean that she had started realizing her feelings after he moved away?

Such a conclusion made Thea's heart beat in excitement as she wondered how an overachieving, beautiful girl like Crystal would make her confession.

Maybe she could learn some tricks and use them to nab herself a boyfriend good enough to resist the bullying from her siscon older brother, finally achieving the ultimate salvation.

Harry, on the other hand, could only grit his teeth in fury. 'Thea is obviously chasing after him in her own way, and now even Crystal came to make a confession?! What the fuck?'

This guy really was a chick magnet!

Even if a boy had good fortune with girls, shouldn't it still be limited to getting his confessions accepted by those that would otherwise be considered out of his league?

Why in the world were they confessing to him instead?!

Harry couldn't help but lament it in his heart. 'Fuck! If I knew that being associated with Emilia had such effects, I'd never have tried to get away from her like that! In fact, that day I really fucked up!'

That day, when she had chased away his bullies, if he had accepted Emilia's hand…

Maybe if he also had some rumors flying around similar to Randy, he would also be basking in similar glory. The difference in looks between Randy and himself was only minor, after all.

But while he was somewhat jealous, Harry also couldn't help but look down on his friend in his heart. After all, to be so smugly looking forward to another confession, while still making a girl like Thea hang on in uncertainty… this guy was too much of a scumbag!

Had it been Harry in his place, he would have resolutely accepted Thea's pursuit, and the two of them would have had a wonderful life together from then on.

Harry could already imagine it. He would take her out on dates, and the two would marry within two years or so. They would have four kids, two boys and two girls. Of course, he would name the boys, and she could name the girls.

Unaware of the trio's varying thoughts, Crystal scowled when she noticed that the boy hadn't come alone, and had brought two others along.

Of course, she wasn't worried. Since she planned to get things done, Crystal would certainly not be so shortsighted as to not prepare for a physical confrontation.

She was also well aware of her own strengths and weaknesses, and hadn't hesitated to call Penny to remain on standby.

Crystal knew that, sweet as she was, Penny would never refuse one of the earliest supporters of her 'Royal Knights' initiative, as well as the one who had first introduced her to Emilia face to face.

As long as she gave the signal, the three of them wouldn't even know what hit them.

Crystal smirked derisively. "You don't dare to come alone, Randy? Given how you were chasing after Emilia so fearlessly, I'd have thought that you had more guts."
