Chapter 16 (1/2)

Chapter 16: The mystery seems to ever increase.

First, we decided to continue observing b.i.t.c.h.

We also decided to increase our target of observation, that is……

One of the love interests, the bespectacled b.a.s.t.a.r.d boyfriend Brad. (TN: kichiku megane in raw, for those who know)

This guy, he’s acting strangely.

Talking about b.i.t.c.h and Robert in front of Jessica as if to make her jealous, or leading b.i.t.c.h and Hughie in front of April.

And when Angelica goes to chastise b.i.t.c.h, he stares at Angelica with a strange look.

Today, he approached Jessica, who was with Louis, and asked, ‘I wonder what Robert is doing now?’ The students already know the two broke their engagement. Normally one wouldn’t think of asking such a thing.

Moreover, Brad is the etiquette teacher. I can’t understand why he would act in such a way.

On top of that, he seemed to have made a creepy grin as he looked at the angry Louis.

Also, he seems to be making Henry be more possessive of b.i.t.c.h.

Whenever Henry and b.i.t.c.h are a having a pleasant conversation, he squeezes in between them, unnecessarily touching her or talking with another love interest.

When b.i.t.c.h becomes fl.u.s.tered because of this, he then smiles wryly.

……I have no idea what he wants.

In the game, Brad’s setting was that he is ‘a friendly etiquette teacher on the surface, but a bespectacled b.a.s.t.a.r.d deep down’.

Silver-haired and wearing slim-frame gla.s.ses, teaching cla.s.ses with a warm smile, I recall my little sister agonising over the still.

As the story progresses, he reveals his true nature and proceeds on to sweet ‘discipline’, which is really just s.e.xual hara.s.sment……

I remember my little sister huffing and moaning over this still, making me rather queasy, something I wish I didn’t have to remember.

Brad in this world must be a bespectacled b.a.s.t.a.r.d in this world as well. But in the game he didn’t do anything like this.

……Just what is going on?

The more I investigate, the deeper the mystery gets. I am so very confused.

How should I deal with this mystery……

Should I just stop investigating?

Or so I thought for a moment.

However, Brad is getting dangerously closely to girls such as Angelica, Jessica and April, so if he is scheming something, I’ll have to do something!

Henry’s actions are disturbing too, I need to put more focus into making countermeasures.

“……We have to tell the ladies to never act on their own…… Actually, it might be dangerous even if they are together……”

“Indeed. Even if we dispatch our butlers, we still can’t  predict their next moves.”

“Yeah. For example, if that is the predestined fate, the butler do not seek to change it, so we can’t expect to use them to avoid disaster.”

Since we are unable to predict the actions of Henry and Brad, ‘the two big perverts’ of the game, we first must secure the safety of the girls.

Because of the ability ‘butlers’ have, they also act as bodyguards in school, but they have something called ‘domain’ and they do not overstep that bound.

Thus when there is a crisis and the butlers determine it do be an unshakable fate, they do not intervene in these. So we can’t rely completely on butlers for the girls’ safety.

Butlers with more power seem to be able to see more futures, so their ‘domain’ is also wider. So their actions as butlers are completely different.

They actively intervene in events.

So more powerful butlers are always in demand.

However, as the butlers have the final say in choosing the contract, having power and money does not guarantee a superb butler.

It’s quite fortunate to have the best butler available for me.
