What the heck. So now Im supposed to take a class with Lehman for an entire semester?

Grumbling a little to herself, Reina picked a spot thats some distance away from the group and huddled close to the ground, her expression serious.

No, but really. Whys the epidemic spreading every day?

The Pluntria Empire was a land that had the blessing of the dragonfolk, and it was certainly close to what could be called paradise on earth. Although there were some epidemics that had also spread far back in the past, they werent this bad.

But the epidemic this time was spreading so severely these days.

Haa Its bothering me for some reason.

Mulling over what could be causing it, Reina clicked her tongue. However, at that moment, some commotion around Lehman grew louder.

Wait. Dont touch it.

Thats poison isnt it?

Poison? Reina turned her head unconsciously.

But sure enough, werent Lehman and the crowd around him also looking at her?

?

Eyy, no way. Really, no way.

Were they casting suspicion on her just because theres poison?

Theres so many people in this world who could handle poison besides the people of House Chantra anyway

Ah

No, not a lot, yeah.

Of course, of course. Theres not a lot.

Again, to reiterate, this was a world of magic.

Thus, magic replaced not only medicine, but also science and technology. Theres no need for anyone to use poison except for assassinating someone.

Reina.

One person near Lehman snarled her name. She was the only poison wielder in this place.

Huu

Poison as an attribute was not rare but certainly not common. And thus, the only person who could have used it in this place was her.

However, wasnt it too hasty of them to conclude that she was the culprit? Unless their brains were as smooth as the sky, theyd think that its much too obvious for her to release poison since shed be the only suspect. So, how could she have openly wielded it?

Standing up on her feet, Reina patted off the dirt on her hands.

Are you suspecting me?

Then, is there anyone else besides you whod do this?

As if Reinas question in itself was ludicrous, all the people opposing her stood standoffishly in front of her. As the guy who spoke glared daggers at her, Reina smiled in vain.

She already decided on this before.

Theyre going to say this or that about her and criticize her anyway, so if she had to retort, shed best say whatever she had to say without any hesitation.

Friend.

As she arrived in front of them, Reina tilted her head to the side and asked.

Do you wear your brain just as a decoration?

What?

It was certainly absurd to hear such a thing from Reina. After all, shes notorious for being the poster child for wearing a brain as decoration.

Do you have any right to say such a thing to me?

Oh? Then tell me, how did you come to that conclusion? Youd do that only if your brain really is just an accessory.

Tapping one finger against her cheek, she said this straightforwardly to the person whose face had turned bright red.

Now that I think about it, Im the only one here who can wield poison.

Yeah, and thats why you

Yes, exactly. Im the only one who can wield poison, so its obvious that everyone will start suspecting me, just like you.

But, why in the world would I use poison to kill Lehmans plants? Anyone can tell that, in a situation like this, Im the first person to be suspected.

At her line of logic, everyone in Lehmans group promptly shut up.

See? You all think so too, yes?

As the person who tried to corner Reina grew quiet, she stared at Lehman this time.

If something like that happened with poison, dont you think you should suspect that someone is trying to frame me?

At this, everyones belovedwho seemed so delicate that hed collapse after just one hittook a step forward. Soon after, an oh-so-pitiful question flowed out of Lehmans lips.

Reina What on earth have I done so wrong to you?

Now, what kind of creative nonsense was this guy spouting?

Haa What are you on about this time?

Why Why do you do this to me all the time? Did I ever slight your feelings before?

Laughter spilled out of her automatically. She had so much to say, and she wanted to list down many of her sound arguments, but unfortunately, she was speechless right now.

I dont get it. Why do I have to suffer the wrath of these villains

She knew well enough that she was being attacked here, but shes so dumbfounded that she couldnt help but laugh.

As Reina scoffed more, Lehman swept a hand over his eyes tiredly.

I was just I was just going to let it slide.

Everyones very dear beloved, whose lips were quite beautiful, enunciated each syllable of this statement slowly as though he was calming down his rising tears.

Even if you always tried to get me in trouble I thought I thought we could still be good friends

Oh?

Thats what Reinas supposed to say, not him.

Was it because I went to Cressen?

At this, the people around Lehman began to murmur as if they already knew about it.

Then, looking as if the whole situation was getting too much for him to endure, Lehman clenched his hands into fists.

Or Or is it really because Im closer to the other children of the nine families compared to you?

Lehman looked up at Reina with an expression that was filled with utter grief, and he begged.

Please Im having such a hard time, so please Just please stop it already.

Watching the performance of everyones beloved, Reina shifted her posture obliquely.

You guys arent even religious fanatics or whatever Say, Lehman. Are you done now?

To reiterate once again Reina would no longer just stand idly and let herself be trampled.

If shes going to get cursed at, then they should just get cursed at together.
