Chapter 96

Kitakami

"Bastard, what did you say? That is absolutely out of the question!"

"You bastard, you just want to humiliate me, don't you? You just want to make a fool of me and take these things to threaten me, right?!"

Upon hearing this from Kitakami Yoru, Eriri exploded for no apparent reason.

Please, she was a dignified, mixed-race, fair-skinned young lady with a prestigious background, pampered since childhood, and the object of envy for countless outsiders—and he wanted her to act like a dog?

Absolutely impossible. Not in the future, and certainly not now!

"Compared to humiliation, I think I have something to say."

Kitakami Yoru had been keeping his mind-reading active, and as he listened to Eriri's inner thoughts, he couldn't help but laugh in indignation.

If he didn't completely shatter the inner world of such an arrogant young lady and ruin her life once and for all...

... after a while, she would appear before him again, still the same arrogant Eriri!

"Also, if I don't leave behind evidence, once I leave, Eriri will definitely take revenge on me, right?"

After saying this, Kitakami Yoru listened very intently to Eriri's inner thoughts and sensed her emotions.

They were very, very complex.

Regret, terror, fear, guilt, and thoughts of turning back to take revenge on him were all there...

"If you leave now, I can let bygones be bygones and promise to help you clear your name!"

Hearing this, Eriri was startled. After a moment of silence, she stared at Kitakami Yoru with particularly complex feelings in her heart.

She knew she had done many things to hurt Kitakami Yoru, and she would try her best to make amends.

Unfortunately.

Some things are like a steel nail driven into a wooden board; even if you pull the nail out, the permanent mark remains.

No matter how much one tries to make amends, it can never be undone.

Moreover, all Eriri could offer to make amends was money.

Kitakami Yoru wasn't particularly short on money, and what use was too much money anyway?

However, Kitakami Yoru had also done so many excessive things to her.

With her heart feeling unbalanced, Eriri truly couldn't make up her mind; she didn't know what to do.

People are subconsciously and instinctively selfish, inevitably biased toward themselves.

Eriri had never experienced the pain Kitakami Yoru had suffered.

She could only try her best to imagine it.

But could a high-and-mighty young lady, respected by others and pampered since childhood, really imagine it?

She probably couldn't think of it even if she racked her brains; she couldn't grasp that kind of pain.

Because the words Kitakami Yoru spoke were just light and airy to her, merely passing into her ears.

If it were some other bullied, disgusting, fat otaku, perhaps she could empathize.

Kitakami Yoru read Eriri's inner thoughts while gazing at the treasure chest above her head.

She had almost caused him to lose his life—if not for Fujiwara Chika!

The two quieted down, and the room fell into deep silence.

The bright starry sky and the bright moon cast a soft glow, spilling onto the balcony connected to the outside of Eriri's room.

"Sawamura Eriri-san, you seem to have forgotten one thing: you are in my hands right now."

Reading her mind, this was exactly what Kitakami Yoru wanted.

Making Eriri kneel down, imitate a dog's bark, and crawl over to apologize to him hit exactly the threshold of shame in Eriri's heart.

As an arrogant, mixed-race, fair-skinned young lady, Eriri certainly wouldn't want this video to leak if she didn't want to destroy the beautiful, cute, and aloof image others had of her.

Eriri bit her lower lip; the mental pain was a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand times more intense than the physical!

"No way~"

"I am a human being; don't you dare dream of that!"

"Absolutely! Absolutely impossible!"

Eriri closed her eyes directly, and after the words fell, she didn't say another thing!

【Modified】

Kitakami Yoru was silent for a moment, then suddenly sighed.

Fine.

A rabbit will bite when cornered, let alone a young lady with a noble status and boundless arrogance.

High and mighty.

"Don't worry, as long as you don't come to take revenge on me in the future, I won't send the video out."

"One last piece of advice: I'll make many preparations, like registering on a foreign website, using an anonymous SIM card to change my IP, and then setting a timer for your video..."

"If I happen to have an accident and die one day, or if I'm suddenly dragged off to the police station... and no one cancels the timer..."

Kitakami Yoru then began to bluff right in front of Eriri.

If Eriri dared to take revenge on him, the fact that she was the culprit who stole Kasumigaoka Utaha's stockings and panties would be completely exposed.

At that time!

Heh!

What would people think behind the back of a dignified young lady like Eriri, who was super arrogant and had extremely high self-esteem?

Eriri certainly wouldn't want that to happen.

"Damn it, damn it, disgusting..."

Eriri nodded while feeling furious in her heart.

That's right, Kitakami Yoru had forced her to do so many excessive things, and she had just been hesitating about whether to take revenge.

Now, she wasn't hesitating anymore!

She just wanted Kitakami Yoru to take the money, and she would sincerely apologize and go find Kasumigaoka Utaha to clear up the misunderstanding—anything, as long as he deleted the video!

As for Kitakami Yoru, he also felt that this bit of revenge wasn't enough at all!

He read her mind, determined to open the gold treasure chest tonight.

Whew!

"Then let's tease Eriri a bit more."

Kitakami Yoru packed his school bag, looking as if he were about to leave.

"Hurry up and go..."

Eriri urged him hurriedly, pointing at the door, wishing Kitakami Yoru would get lost immediately.

"Eriri-san is so cute, I don't really want to leave. Eriri-san, can we become friends?"

Kitakami Yoru said, putting on an intimate air.

"Ugh!"

Eriri felt so disgusted in her heart she almost wanted to vomit.

A disgusting, dead, fat otaku asking to be friends with her.

Is he daydreaming?

Eriri hadn't realized yet that Kitakami Yoru was just playing with her.

"Sure."

In order to get Kitakami Yoru to get lost immediately, Eriri, her heart complex and tangled in a knot, nodded.

"Then I'm leaving."

Kitakami Yoru stood at the door, unlocked it, and placed his hand on the door.

Seeing this, Eriri let out a sigh of relief in her heart, so excited she was about to shed tears.

"Creak~"

Kitakami Yoru gently pushed the door open and walked out, his figure disappearing completely outside the door.

As if saved from hell, Eriri could no longer suppress her emotions and they burst out violently.

Anger, fear, relief, the feeling of surviving a disaster, pain, hesitation...

The next second, Kitakami Yoru suddenly flashed back in.

Eriri choked on her breath, bending over and coughing incessantly, in agony.

Why did this damn, disgusting, bastard, fat otaku come back again!

Engaging in physical contact would allow the treasure chest to open faster!
