Reincarnated as the Villainess's attendant

Zoemi woke up on his double bed and looked at the ceiling with a grim expression. Kierul was upset – she was straight-up sad about the whole thing with the second prince.

In Zoemi's opinion, it would be better to actually test the water first before assuming anything, but as much as he didn't want to admit it openly, Kierul had better intuition than him and was leagues better than him in terms of planning things ahead and also figuring out other people intentions...

Still, she did sometimes get people wrong because she expected them to not do anything outrageously stupid that would ruin their lives and then got surprised by their rashness or straight-up stupidity – just as was the case with her crispy older brother.

"...the second prince could be acting friendly with her just for the sake of future connections or simply to keep other nobles on their toes... Haaa... I shouldn't punch through his skull before confirming it, should I...?"

The black-haired boy sighed in annoyance, got up, and dressed up while routinely checking on the copy he left in Aspakeony's care.

As it was already a tradition, the gray-haired necromancer was soundly asleep while tightly hugging his copy like a body pillow amidst the abundance of fluffy pillows and plush toys.

*chuu~*

Honestly? She looked so cute and defenseless that while controlling his copy, Zoemi gave the girl a little peck on the forehead...

"...nmmmh...?"

"...!"

...and then cut off the connection the moment that the girl's eyelids trembled and she let out a cute confused voice...

"That was nice."

The black-haired boy smiled softly as the murderous thoughts left his brain and he walked out of his room.

Zoemi's ears picked up on the usual sound of Teofee who was walking down the hallway towards him with an indifferent expression doing everything in her power to appear as if she wasn't there for him, but that only improved the boy's mood further~

For just a moment Zoemi got the urge to just ghost the short brown-haired girl and leave his astral projection behind to see her reaction...

"...?"

"...!"

...but that thought disappeared when he merely looked back towards the exit door of the dormitory building as he heard someone outside and that move that could be misunderstood as Teofee being an unpleasant sight caused the girl to tremble and lower her head.

|What am I supposed to do? Her attempt at being expressionless but still ending up really expressive is just too cute...!|

The black-haired boy groaned to himself before summoning a gentle smile on his scarred face and putting his right hand to his heart.

"Good morning, Miss patron~ It's nice to see you. I hope you will call upon my service soon~"

"...ah...!"

Zoemi called out and Teofee flinched and let out a short gasp before her indifferent expression got ruined by a lovely blush.

"Indeed. Good morning."

Nonetheless, the brown-haired girl made an attempt to recover and didn't even stutter while returning the greeting.

Teofee stopped to talk and Zoemi politely did the same thing.

"I have heard about yesterday... You did a good job."

The brown-haired girl did her best to look up at the black-haired boy while keeping an expressionless face even though her voice shook a little bit.

"Oh, not at all, actually – I failed the challenge that my master gave me. If it wasn't for her the consequences would be terrible."

Teofee thought it would be a good idea to prise the feat of capturing the criminal who tired to take the second prince's life but because she learned about the whole thing secondhand, she wasn't aware of the detail greatly bothered Zoemi.

"Eh? But..."

"I underestimated the opponent which was a stupid mistake that should have never happened. I had ways to make it work, but I failed."

Teofee gasped in confusion, tilting her head while Zoemi shrugged his shoulders, looking to the sides with a bitter expression.

"Wait... I didn't mean to...!"

The short girl tensed up in worry realizing the drop in the black-haired boy's mood – which he picked up on without fail.

"Ah~ I am upset~ So upset in fact that only tender caress of money could soothe my damaged soul~"

Zoemi lowered his head and put his palm in the middle of his chest, speaking in a somber voice but even then he would end his sentences quite playfully.

He acted, badly, on purpose – with tricks like that, it really was the fooled party's fault to fall for it...

"If only you had a wish that I could complete and get the compensation for... yes, that would definitely help me feel better~!"

Zoemi added tilting his head and looking at Teofee while presenting his better profile.

"...!"

The shockingly naive brown-haired girl flinched and began rummaging through her pockets in a hurry...

"~!"

Soon enough she found and retrieved a coin purse and despite keeping up the expressionless face the aura of satisfaction was oozing out of her every pore.

"...wh-what you would be willing to do for... this much...?"

After a moment of hesitation and counting the coins, Teofee asked without raising her head, putting out her hands, and presenting Zoemi with the whole purse.

"..."

The black-haired boy frowned and lowered his hands, looking down at the brown-haired girl with quite a strict expression.

"...haaa..."

She wasn't showing any signs of thinking over her actions and remained in the same position no matter how long the silence between the two of them lasted, which resulted in Zoemi letting out a disapproving sight.

"Seriously, you are barking up the wrong tree."

"Eh...?"

The black-haired attendant groaned while taking a step forward, grabbing the girl's wrists with one hand while taking the coin purse out of her hands with the outer – and causing her to let out a confused gasp.

*thump*

Zoemi went a step further and pushed the girl back against the wall while pinning her hands over her head and leaning down to glare into her eyes from up close.

"If you want to purchase my affection, do not try to make me want to protect you. How could you be so naive? What if I took the money and left right now saying that this was the service?"

He scolded her, shaking his head in annoyance...

"...I... I would go bring you more money...?"

"...what...?"

But the answer that Teofee gave him managed to actually stun him baffled on the spot.

"Tsk...!"

Zoemi looked into her eyes but there was no regret, remorse, or shame in them – honestly, at that moment Teofee was truly unteasable so the whole act the black-haired boy was pulling stopped being any fun for him.

"Okay, fine. Your choice."

He then shrugged his shoulders and let go of her, pulling away with a grumpy expression, feeling as if he lost a toy.

He did pocket the whole coin purse – if he wasn't having fun, at least he was getting something out of it.

"Thank you for the service...! H-have a good day...!"

Freed Teofee bowed towards his back and started walking away, suddenly changing her destination and going towards the back exit close to Zoemi's room instead of the main part of the Dormitory building.

"..."

Zoemi looked over his shoulder, glaring, and witnessed the brown-haired girl didn't just walk but frolicked in elation.

...which gave him a strong urge to feel petty...

Very petty.

*rustle*

"...e-eh...?!"

So when Teofee threw her hands up in a silent cheer just before reaching for the door handle, she suddenly found herself captured again.

Both of her wrists were captured securely by strong hands, larger than her own and she felt someone's closeness on her back.

When she turned around to face the audacious person...

*slrp*

"A-nghya...!"

Her earlobe got nibbled on sending chills down her spine and forcing quite a loud moan out of her mouth.

"Oh? Your ears are surprisingly weak~!"

"Nnngh...!"

The pleasant low voice reverberated by the sensitive area causing her to squirm subconsciously.

"S-sir Zoe-MIHIHIGHNNNMHnnn...!"

Teofee asked quite shocked but then her voice rose into another moan as her ear was licked and then nibbled on again, this time more aggressively.

"H...hwghy...?"

She yelped pathetically feeling her legs turn weak and her bofy burning up... at that point, her ear felt scalding...!

"I don't mind receiving tips, but I decided that you offered me too much money – so as a righteous professional with high standards I am providing the additional service."

"You don't hyew tohwoOOO-MMMMMGHHHHH!"

Zoemi murmured into her ear before relentlessly teasing it forcing the girl to falter and loose all of her power while her heartbeat increased so much that it felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

"Awhuuul... I haw duties... I will bhe schoolded aghain...MNGGGHH...!"

*click*

Teofee tried to complain but Zoemi didn't stop lovingly abusing her ear she suddenly tensed up, ass her body arched uncontrollably and she moaned through her teeth...

"...eh...?" 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m

...right in time for a pale-gold-haired first-year student to open the exit door that Teofee and Zoemi were in front of, caused the accidental witness to let out a shocked voice...
