He still could not believe who he was talking to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius suddenly leaned close. Too close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened his eyes wide right in front of Timmy’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look at my eyes. Golden. Have you ever seen eyes like this before?\" he said with a slow smirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And this face? Have you ever seen someone this handsome?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Timmy stepped back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well... no,\" he said quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stared at Julius again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I don’t know what is more strange... his behavior... or the fact that he is Julius Augustus Hayes.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They walked out of the classroom. The hallway was loud. Students were talking behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some were laughing. Some were whispering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Timmy looked at him again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you are really that Julius... then why does no one recognize you? Everyone knows Rosalina Valentina. But no one knows you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius placed his hands behind his head and walked casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course they don’t recognize me,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I only came here a week ago. My Rose has been here for one year.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And besides...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stopped walking for a second but did not finish his sentence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Timmy raised one eyebrow. \"So that’s the reason?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right,\" Julius said with a nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that was not the real reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The real reason was simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The author did not create him at the start.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the original story, this academy was where the main character collected his harem and fought against the villainess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time Julius forced the bad author to add a character like him, the academy part of the story was already over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the author made up an excuse: Julius had been in the academy the whole time, but he hated it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why he spent most of his days inside his mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made his romance with the villainess seem more special and dramatic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius and Timmy walked side by side down the hallway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Students rushed past them. Some carried books. Some whispered. Some ran as if the world would end if they were late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Julius walked at his own pace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slow. Calm. As if the hallway belonged to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, the corridor split into a wide upside-down T.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So where are you going?\" Julius asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m heading right,\" Timmy said, adjusting his glasses. \"My major alchemy class starts in ten minutes. What about you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius slipped his hands into his pockets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll go see my Rose. She should be here by now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Timmy’s eyes twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This guy...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Every time. My Rose this. My Rose that.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It’s good to be friends with someone strong like him... but why is his brain such a mess?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Timmy let out a quiet sigh. He was about to say goodbye—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then his eyes shifted forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius suddenly stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A slow smile spread across his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What great timing,\" he said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without another word, he walked straight toward the end of the hallway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Timmy looked at his back and sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah... great timing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone had just stepped into the corridor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The noise of the hallway seemed to fade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Students slowed down. Some stared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some moved aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rosalina Valentina.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius ran toward her with bright eyes and a wide smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rose!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl stopped mid-step. For a second, her face changed. Just a little.Then it hardened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Irritation appeared in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk.\" She clicked her tongue and turned to face him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius stopped right in front of her, still smiling as if nothing in the world could shake him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was about to go find you?\" he said gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk. I told you not to call me that,\" she said, her brows tightening. \"And are you stalking me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice was cold. Her eyes were sharper than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius tilted his head slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well... I do stalk you,\" he admitted with a soft chuckle. \"But this time we met by pure coincidence. Can you believe it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared at him. Her face was hard to read. Cold. Calm. Sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But her cheeks were slightly red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one could see it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had used red makeup before coming today. It saved her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You really are annoying,\" she said in a flat voice. \"I’m warning you again. If you don’t stop—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She did not finish. She only looked at him with a cold gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But inside?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside she was screaming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Please don’t stop chasing me, Julius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And why do you look so good today?Kyaaa!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face felt hot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If steam could rise from a human face, hers would be visible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It’s a good thing I used makeup today. Yesterday I had to pinch myself just to stay calm. If I hadn’t, I would have been exposed.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius, unaware of the storm in her mind, stepped closer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rose,\" he said softly, \"I was wondering if you could do me a favor?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Anything for you honey. Just say it and it’s yours. Even I am yours.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words appeared in her mind. They stayed there. They did not escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How shameless,\" she said instead, lifting her chin. \"You dare ask your enemy for a favor? Hmph.\" She gave a cold snort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius did not react to her tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He simply smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well,\" he continued, \"now that we met by coincidence...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Coincidence?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosalina’s eye twitched. This meeting was anything but coincidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One hour earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her private cabin inside the academy, Rosalina stood alone. A large map was pinned to the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her finger rested on one spot. ’He is in theory class...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It just started. So he will be there for one hour.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She checked the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Perfect.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She moved her hand through the air like she was drawing a path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After his class ends, I will pass by exactly two minutes later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he will come to me, and we will talk...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stopped and frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what if he takes the back road instead? Hmm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought for a moment, then smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know! Before class ends, I will create an illusion of many students walking on that side. Yes, that sounds perfect,\" she murmured happily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay! Now it’s time for makeup,\" she said to herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yesterday I didn’t look my best. My face was too stiff...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While talking, she pulled out a small portrait from inside her dress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The picture showed Julius stepping down from his carriage. She had secretly taken it with a special artifact when no one was watching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She pressed her lips to the portrait again and again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mwah, mwah, mwah...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One day this will be your real face,\" she whispered, kissing it more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Rosalina?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hic!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back to the present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had quickly hid the portrait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Thank goodness Rita didn’t see me doing that,’ she thought, swallowing hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius looked at her with a shy face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So... what I was thinking...\" he said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Would you like to go on a date with me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1153,"2026-06-10T05:56:21.839Z",1,"novelbin.me","69828567cb03b839274da72fd5b873763ded522757de415bdb62ef9b9de3140e","villainess-x-villain-they-are-obsessed-with-each-chapter-11","villainess-x-villain-they-are-obsessed-with-each-chapter-209",220,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fvillainess-x-villain-they-are-obsessed-with-each-cover.jpg"]
