The Villainess With A Heroine Harem

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

'Shit…! I fucked up!'

Amos regretted it the moment the words left his lips.

He was in such a rush to not let that girl speak that he even forgot he didn't look at all like he used to back when he attended the Imperial Academy of Oriana. Even if they were to grow an extra pair of eyes, it was almost impossible for his old classmates to recognize him.

Not only was his expression much more gloomy and haggard now than ever before, but the impact of the constant setbacks and shocks over the past few years seemed to have aged the previously dashing boy's glowing skin by almost a decade.

Although he still looked like he could pass off as the eye-candy member of a boy band, even Amos knew that his charm was 'slightly' reduced when compared to before.

This was evidenced by the fact that girls no longer seemed to swoon whenever he passed by, and a few even flinched away upon seeing him approach.

With his charm, Amos was still sure he could make them lick his boots if he so wished, but the silver-haired boy knew now was not the time for such frivolous thoughts.

Once he took back everything that belonged to him, it wouldn't be too late to indulge himself then.

Naturally, the silver-haired boy still believed that as long as he was given the opportunity to rise back up, everything he had lost would be his once more. Everything, including Crystal, the Black Tiger, and even his youthful glow.

And if he could succeed today, it would definitely take him one step closer to that goal, and the silver-haired boy's eyes glinted in excitement at that thought. 'But first, I have to fix this mess!'

Brilliant as he was, it only took him a moment to come up with a solution for his slip up. "We weren't in the same class, so you might not remember me. In fact, it's only natural since we never talked. Let's talk more later, though, we can't disturb the doctor."

His confidence grew with every word, and after seeing the look of confusion fade away from the face of the 'dumb blonde' girl, he became completely certain of himself.

"You're right, I really don't recall meeting you before…" The 'blonde' girl tilted her head curiously, and if Amos had been more astute, perhaps he would have noticed the amused glint in her eyes. "Your hair color reminds me of someone though."

'As expected, she has no idea who she's talking to, does she?' The silver-haired boy almost sneered in disdain, but still barely managed to maintain a smile. "Ah, yes yes, I remember him. Brilliant guy, right? Just a pity what happened."

With this, it should be done, right?

As he expected, 'Penny' really seemed to be satisfied after that, and went back to her seat to observe how the doctor was examining Jasper.

He was really too clever, wasn't he?

Amos couldn't help but pat himself on his back.

He had seen this particular blonde midget jumping around Emilia quite often, but perhaps that was more of a coincidence than anything else, and their relationship wasn't even as close as he previously thought.

After all, even if the girl had above average appearance, he didn't have the habit of torturing himself by constantly looking at someone he hated to the core. In fact, the only reason he was staring at her most of the time was because of Crystal.

Maybe even if she recognized him, it wouldn't matter?

Either way, it seemed like either that crimson-haired bitch wasn't particularly close to this girl, or she wasn't very forthcoming with everything going on between them. Otherwise, she would definitely be much more vigilant around him just based on the fact that he looked similar to 'Amos Black', right?

When Amos really thought about it, it was only to be expected, and he couldn't help but nod to himself. 'That's right, that small-hearted bitch has some ridiculously high pride and ego for someone so dumb. Just because I wasn't giving her what she desperately wanted, she pretended to be into girls instead so it would seem like she wasn't interested in me anyway.'

He couldn't blame so many people for believing her either, since her act was really so thorough that even he would have been deceived if not for the little bitch always wagging her tail around him for so long before school started.

Perhaps it was then that she realized how futile it was to try to sway his will, and decided to take a more destructive course of action. And that… was the start of everything that went wrong with his life.

Amos sometimes wondered what he would do if he had another chance.

If he could, he would definitely turn back time to go back to the day he rejected that sinister bitch and accept her instead.

Of course, just when she thought all her dreams would be coming true, he would shatter them all with his own hands!

He would take everything she had, and completely ruin her!

'No no, it's not too late yet! I can still make a comeback!' Amos grinned. 'This bitch seems to be even dumber than that whore Emilia. Look at her sneaking glances at me like that… heh, she has no idea what's about to happen.'

The doctor had naturally stopped paying attention to the two of them at this point, and moved on to examining and questioning Jasper, and Ginny's attention was also fully focused on her brother.

As for his assistant… well, could he really expect any help from a boy who dropped his precious equipment on the first day at work just because he saw some girl he was 'familiar' with? No, in fact, perhaps the boy just had a one-sided crush, given how the girl didn't even seem to recall who he was.

The doctor shook his head in disappointment. 'The younger generation is getting worse and worse, always focusing on love first!'

In contrast, Ginny and Jasper were clearly good examples of what one could achieve when they didn't let flowery feelings like love get in their way. Look, they were so young, and yet already billionaires!

Of course, the doctor conveniently forgot that Ginny and Jasper had a trillionaire father.

Emilia almost shuddered in disgust when Amos slicked back his silver hair in a 'dashing' manner and threw her a flirtatious grin, but she barely managed to control herself.

Of course, Amos only thought that her somewhat strange reaction could only be the girl desperately trying to suppress her swooning lust, and his sense of assurance rose to another level.

'Girls in love are the dumbest. I'm guessing that even if she knew what I was about to do now, she wouldn't dare to rat me out.' The silver-haired boy nodded to himself confidently.
