Chapter 27: Watching a Play and Dating

That day, Leo went to school as usual.

He never expected that he would lie in the medical center for a whole day before feeling better; he began to doubt if his constitution was a bit weak.

In the future, he still needed to strengthen his exercise, as his constitution and life were only at C-class, which was far from strong enough, and both could be improved through physical training.

As he walked up the stairs, a sudden commotion came from the side.

“Just a mere commoner, don’t get too carried away.”

Leo was very sensitive to the term “commoner,” but it seemed like it wasn’t directed at him.

In the corner of the stairs, several noble female students surrounded a commoner girl in the middle; the noble girls looked arrogant, while the commoner girl appeared bullied and weak.

Is this bullying?

Leo didn’t expect to stumble upon this scene; he was about to step forward to stop it when he suddenly caught sight of the commoner girl’s appearance and halted his steps.

“Don’t pretend to be pitiful here; don’t think we don’t know, using your looks to seduce Prince Corik. Prince Corik is too kind and was deceived by you.”

“Moreover, Prince Corik is the fiancé of Miss Delisa; only an uncultured commoner would do such a thing as seducing someone else’s fiancé.”

“No! Prince Corik and I are just friends.”

The bullied girl was none other than the protagonist, Caroline, whom Leo tried to avoid. At this moment, her face was tear-streaked, and despite her fear, she mustered the courage to argue back.

“Huh? What are you saying? Let me teach you a lesson on behalf of your parents.”

The leading girl grabbed Caroline’s orange hair.

“Don’t!”

How did he encounter the protagonist’s storyline so quickly?

But since it’s Caroline, it should be fine; the protagonist is always stubborn, and someone should come to the rescue, just not him.

Just as Leo was thinking this, someone stepped forward to prevent the situation from worsening; it was the second protagonist, Rock, an F-class protagonist from Class A, and these two happened to come together.

“What are you doing?”

The red-haired Rock appeared, looking angrily at the noble female students.

“It has nothing to do with you.”

“How can it not? She’s my classmate. I advise you to stop; the teacher is coming.”

“Hmph!”

The noble girls reluctantly walked away.

Seeing that the matter was basically over, Leo lost interest and left.

Arriving in the classroom, Leo sat in his seat, looking at Delisa, who was surrounded by everyone in front of him; she still had a cold demeanor, like an ice mountain beauty.

In an instant, Leo’s gaze met hers.

Those purple eyes were like a purple flower blooming in the cold ice.

Was it an illusion?

Leo had no connection with Delisa; she shouldn’t have noticed him.

“Hey! Delisa, you sent someone to bully Caroline, right?”

Suddenly, Rock stormed into the classroom, looking displeased at Delisa.

The noisy classroom fell silent; everyone stopped what they were doing to look at them.

Delisa’s cold eyes showed no change; she didn’t even glance at Rock.

“Rock, don’t do that!” Caroline appeared just in time.

“What are you saying? Miss Delisa has been with us the whole time; how could she send someone to bully this commoner?”

One of Delisa’s followers stepped forward.

“Just a mere commoner; Miss Delisa wouldn’t care, let alone let someone bully her. Are you out of your mind?”

Delisa’s four bodyguards exuded a terrifying aura, like insurmountable mountains.

“Who else besides you?”

“Rock, stop talking.”

“Recently, there have been fools using Miss Delisa’s name to bully others; lacking judgment and blaming it on the lady, no wonder you’re an F-class student, even your brain is F-class. Students like you should stay in a pigsty.”

The sharp words pierced Rock’s heart like a sword.

“You… Hmph! I will investigate this matter thoroughly.”

Rock had nothing to say; he had indeed jumped to conclusions.

After saying that, he sat back in his seat.

“Who said this matter is over? You slandered Miss Delisa; do you think we will let you off easily?”

The follower was aggressive.

“Sorry, I’m sorry!”

Rock reluctantly bowed his head in apology.

“The one who should apologize is me! I couldn’t stop him!”

Caroline also bowed her head in apology, “And it’s all because of me that it turned out this way, so please don’t blame Rock.”

“This has nothing to do with you. If someone really uses Miss Delisa’s name to bully you, you can tell us; we won’t allow anyone to tarnish Miss Delisa’s reputation.”

Then, the follower looked at Rock, “Remember, you’re just the son of a mere baron; normally, you wouldn’t even have the right to look at Miss Delisa’s esteemed presence. Although I don’t know why someone like you, an F-class, entered Class A, you better be aware of your status.”

They didn’t pursue the matter further, just warning Rock.

Delisa was arrogantly indifferent, not even furrowing her brows throughout, as if it had nothing to do with her, her expression showing no change.

Leo watched a good show, not expecting that Rock, whom he considered the second protagonist, would actually suffer in front of Delisa’s followers.

The four bodyguards were indeed formidable!

Even the protagonist role could be suppressed so thoroughly.

By the way, could this guy really just be an F-class waste? Leo suddenly began to doubt.

No further incidents occurred, and after school, Leo returned to his small villa, not going to the Crimson Flame Team.

Tomorrow is Saturday.

That’s right, it’s the day he has a date with Michelle.

Although it can’t really be called a date, as long as he thinks so, that’s enough.

Standing by the sea, looking at his reflection in the water, Leo felt a bit troubled.

He didn’t have a single decent casual outfit; the only good one was his school uniform, but he couldn’t possibly go out in a school uniform.

There was just enough time, so he decided to go out and buy a set of clothes he could wear.

He chose a regular store and bought a few sets of fitting clothes.

No need to dress up deliberately; being clean and tidy was enough, as Michelle wasn’t the type to care about appearances.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Leo felt somewhat speechless.

“Just like me! I chose an all-black outfit.”

To be honest, he had no talent for matching clothes; he wore whatever he had before, and it was the same now.

But with sufficient funds, he had the means to improve himself.

“Pretty handsome! I can only say, just like me!”

Next was waiting for the next day to arrive.

He didn’t skip his daily sword practice and even added some physical training to his routine.

For some reason, he felt energetic today, so he decided to run a few hundred laps around the beach first.

Effort doesn’t betray; little by little, his abilities improved slightly with daily training.

He hadn’t forgotten that he came to the Nidlan Academy to enhance his strength.

By the way, when crafting weapons tomorrow, he could also create weighted training equipment, so he could train in his daily life.
