Chapter 84 – Rumors
Episode 85 – Rumors
A few weeks after the clash between Kenneth and Pernia, the academy was already approaching midterms.
While I was on my way to the classroom to go to school, I felt a sense of discomfort.
“Look over there. “I am Prince Ruan.”
“Are the rumors true?”
“I don’t know. But isn’t there a possibility? It was quiet for a while, but it had a bad reputation to begin with.”
It seems that bad rumors about me have spread. There are so many rumors going around that I’m curious what’s going on this time.
As soon as I listened, a group of female students answered my curiosity.
“But would I still rape a student at the same academy?”
“I guess I’m not satisfied with being a maid anymore.”
“Is that so? Still, I never thought I would imitate Eunrang…”
“It’s evil. “To tarnish that person’s reputation.”
Eunrang refers to the masked man who disguised himself when I rescued Alyssa and her group.
Did you get a nickname during vacation?
Anyway, if I were to gather information, it looks like I was caught imitating Eunrang, wearing a mask and raping a female student.
‘Who on earth spread this rumor?’
If the rumor had spread that I was Eunrang and a rapist, it would have been true and I would have taken measures to counter it.
But you got caught imitating?
It’s an imitation, since there are many people who imitate celebrities, so we can say that, but it’s too contrived to commit a crime like that and get caught right away.
I can only assume that someone intentionally spread the rumor to disparage me.
So it was even weirder.
I’m just a fool who’s not worth dealing with, so why bother trying to hurt me by spreading false rumors like this?
‘Could it be that my identity was leaked?’
But in that case, it would have been enough to just spread the rumor that he was a possessor.
Why did you use the element of rape? .
“Besides, you said you were a possessor?”
“That’s right. “They probably used future information to rape me!”
“Then a variable arose and we got caught!”
These were female students who provided new information as soon as I could raise questions. I am so grateful that I am almost in tears.
‘If you do this, a possibility arises.’
Someone who noticed that I was possessed may have used this method to keep me in check.
My head gets more and more complicated.
As I was passing through the hallway, thinking hard, a familiar voice echoed in my head.
-Luan, are you okay?
A tone filled with worry.
When I looked up, I saw Deborah staring at me among the crowd of female students. There are a lot of people around me urging me to break up with that kind of trash.
Even in that situation, Deborah was not shaken at all and just looked at me.
The moment I was about to answer with a grin.
“Ruan Friuli!!”
This time, an angry voice grabbed me from behind.
Alyssa was there.
She appeared to be extremely angry, her face contorted into a grim expression, and she approached with heavy momentum, step by step.
And then she raised her hand.
Paang!
I tried to slap him, but he caught my hand and stopped in the middle.
“What are you doing?”
I usually get beaten up by Alyssa in the name of sparring with her, but I absolutely can’t tolerate getting hit like this for no reason.
Alyssa actually got angry at my absurd question.
“What are you doing? So what are you doing? How dare you imitate Hyun and commit such trash? Did you think I would stay still?”
“… Rumors are just rumors. “There won’t be any proof that I did it, right?”
“Do not be ridiculous! “Who else would do something like that other than you!”
To Alyssa, I am nothing more or less than a rapist. No matter what she says, her thoughts she don’t change.
As she clenched her fists in frustration, the female students’ whispers reached her ears.
“This is Lady Alyssa.”
“As expected, the relationship between the two is unusual.”
“Then did it really happen?”
“It could be so. Otherwise, it doesn’t make sense to be so angry.”
At those words, I once again became conscious of the gaze of those around me.
Their eyes were colored with a certain confidence and doubt rather than surprise and worry.
‘It was like that.’
As rumors spread that I was a rapist, rumors followed that Alyssa, with whom I had some ill-fated relationship, had also been raped.
In this case, it is possible to explain why Alyssa is so angry.
For her, this rumor was something that could end her life if she got it wrong.
I sensed Alyssa’s emotions conveyed through her trembling hands and quickly made a suggestion before she made a mistake.
“Let’s talk somewhere else first.”
“…”
“Or are you going to end it all here? “You say I have to pay back my debt to Hyeon?”
“You don’t mention him!!”
Percussion!
Alyssa screamed as if she was struggling and slapped my hand away roughly.
She let out her anger by huffing, and only after a while did she open her mouth.
“… Follow me.”
Then he turns his back and walks away.
I chased after her, glancing at her crowds parting like the Red Sea.
After a while, we stopped at a deserted vacant lot.
After Alyssa thoroughly checked her surroundings, she immediately questioned me.
“Then tell me now. “Why did you impersonate Hyeon?”
“I have never done that.”
“So you’re saying it’s all a coincidence? “There are more rapists like you at the academy?”
“I guess so.”
“What? This trash…”
Alyssa gritted her teeth and let out a glint in her eyes, as if she was getting angry at her casual answer to her question.
Her eyes are so strong that it feels like a fierce fire will pour down and burn her entire body.
Finally, just before her patience she runs out.
“Now, wait a minute!”
Deborah turned the corner and appeared with her fierce cry.
Alyssa was shocked for a moment.
“What are you. Was it there?”
“I followed you secretly. Sorry. But I just can’t stay still.”
“… Why because of what your lover did?”
Alyssa, who was embarrassed, acted calmly, perhaps to distract her from the conversation she had just had, and instead sarcastically provoked her.
Deborah shook her head resolutely.
“There are a lot of things I want to say, but let me answer first: Luan didn’t do that!”
“How can you be sure of that?”
“Well, so…”
Deborah, who stuttered, looked at me with her eyes as if telling me to get along, and then she let out a bombshell.
“Si, actually, we were together all day from yesterday to this morning! The incident occurred early Sunday morning. Right? There is no crime in the first place!”
Deborah’s cheeks turned red as if she was embarrassed. I want to applaud her for her courageous action.
However, the situation did not resolve easily.
“Okay? You two get along very well? But what should I do with this? “I already checked everything.”
“Uh? Confirm?”
“Okay. There’s this trashy friend in my class. I heard we had lunch together on Sunday, but I don’t know what happened? “Can you explain?”
“Oh! That… Actually, we met on Sunday from the afternoon…”
“Oh sorry! I made a mistake. “I heard we had dinner together?”
“Then from night…”
Deborah’s voice gradually became quieter.
Even as she is, she now knows how ridiculous she is being.
On the contrary, Alyssa became more energetic.
“Why don’t you stop lying? Do you really need to cover it up like that? I rather don’t understand. “If he said his lover was a rapist, I would want to kill him right away.”
“B-but it’s not…” ” .”
“How can you be sure of that? “Is there any evidence that this scumbag is not a rapist!?”
Everyone is sensitive to pain. That’s why they want to be empathized and hope that the person who caused them pain will fall.
Alyssa is no different.
Since he wants me to fall, he is trying to persuade Deborah somehow.
I wanted her to be influenced by her own opinions and criticize me along with her, and by doing so, I wanted to be hurt.
What Alyssa overlooked was that Deborah already knew my secrets.
“… “How can you be so sure?”
“What?”
“How can you be sure that Luan is the culprit behind the rumors? You’re not even a party! “Aren’t you just doing this because you heard rumors?”
You don’t deserve it!
Alyssa’s complexion suddenly changed at the intention conveyed at once. Her blazing red eyes, her glare at Deborah.
Her anger, which was directed at me, has now spread to her as well.
“I… Not qualified? How dare you say something like that? You don’t know anything! That trash is me… ! Me…”
Alyssa couldn’t finish her sentence.
She couldn’t hold back her anger, but she couldn’t bear to reveal her trauma to others.
But that was enough for her.
Deborah gained confidence from Alyssa’s remarks and opened her mouth, as if she had been suspicious from the beginning.
“You already knew, right?”
“… “What.”
“Luan… “It is possible to commit rape.”
“What? How do you do that… No, wait. “You?”
Alyssa, who asked her question and deduced the answer at the same time, stared at Deborah with her astonished eyes.
Deborah nodded her head in the affirmative.
“That’s right. I also mixed flesh with Luan. … In a slightly cooperative way.”
“… Really? You also… “You got hit?”
Alyssa’s expression she was confused.
Indeed, she seemed doubtful whether what she heard was true.
Soon, she had her say her.
“Let’s say what you say is true. Then why on earth are you covering up that trash? Why are you defending the person who raped you!”
There is a disease called Stockholm Syndrome.
This is a phenomenon in which she feels love for the person who caused her harm, but Alyssa will suspect that Deborah does not have Stockholm Syndrome.
Deborah returned her smile to that gaze.
“Because there must be circumstances.”
“Buy… Jeong?”
“Huh. The look on her face that she showed when Luan was fucking me was very desperate. She never did it for mere pleasure. You? “Didn’t you do that too?”
Alyssa lowered her eyes for a moment.
Perhaps the memories of when she was raped are replaying in her head.
And when she calmly examines her memories, she is bound to see things she had not discovered before.
The problem is that Alyssa isn’t ready to accept it yet, and she doesn’t have the will to do it in the first place.
Because to her, I’m just her rapist.
So she doesn’t assume that she might have misunderstood.
No, I turn away.
“Nothing like that! He raped me because he just wanted to feel better. That’s it. “There are no circumstances!”
But Deborah did not allow it.
“It is a lie. They say they know your face. “I’m just running away.”
“Shut up! What do you know! There must be circumstances? What’s the matter? “Under what circumstances would someone rape a woman?”
“At least it would have been life-threatening. I bet you did too. Obviously, what’s going on—”
“Don’t be damned! That damn thing! Circumstances! The ejaculation is cumming inside your lewd pussy hole! Now I understand. Are you just giving in to that guy? Huh? Yes? Lustful bitch. “They say it’s okay even after being raped.”
Now, Alyssa’s eyes began to show not only anger, but also disgust and contempt.
Deborah was taken aback by the unimaginable verbal abuse.
“W-what? What do you say like that? “Isn’t that too much?”
“You’re the one who went too far! Are you saying there will be circumstances for the rapist in front of the victim? Is it okay to rape under certain circumstances? “Do you think that makes sense?”
“Well, that’s…”
Deborah was unable to continue speaking as the cry seemed like a kind of madness.
At that point, I stepped forward.
“Stop. “Both of you, calm down.”
I pulled Deborah and hid her behind my back and faced Alyssa directly.
