Chapter 199 - His Heroic Soul Flared Up
"Hey, Thom brother, how long do you want to stare at the fairy? You're just staring at her, and it's been almost a week since you've been eyeing her." The good looking student slightly ruffled his light brown hair while scolding his dreamy friend.
"Shut up, Jerry." Thom responded somewhat discontentedly. He no longer looked at Elysia or Evelyn and just looked at her friend.
"What? Those two girls are too beautiful to be the subject of your perverted fantasies. Please don't let me know that you made them your delusional material." Jerry rolled his eyes. His friend had his eye on one of the two girls who were far enough to reach. Either one from those two girls, but his friend hadn't told him more about it.
"Heh, who wants to tell you? I crave romance, and it never hurts to daydream." Thom clumsily defended himself for whatever reason.
To have those two beautiful girls was mission impossible, so he lowered the bar to just one of the best, namely the girl from the home of unknown origin. He had been overseeing Elysia since he laid his eyes on her, and he just hadn't tried to approach her.
"That sounds good. Hopefully not the perverted romance of the book you read. I remember you looking at those two girls with an odd gaze and a funny smile." Jerry patted his friend on the back. However, his friend immediately gave him a sharp glare, and it gave him the feeling of goosebumps.
"Ahem. Isn't now a good opportunity to get close to the girl of your dreams? Don't know, then don't love, you know her but not necessarily the other way around." Jerry immediately cleared his throat and changed the subject.
Even if that were true, Thom wouldn't want to admit it. He looked at the two girls with a lustful gaze and a lewd smile when the introductory class began. He didn't dare to do that again because one of the girls was the Royal Princess of Ariatha Kingdom!
He would seek to die to dig his own grave if Evelyn caught him at that time. Because of this, he chose a cleaner way to approach Elysia. Unfortunately, the minimal opportunities and undiscovered good-natured approaches were always a hindrance.
Not to mention, the hateful Brian and his henchmen were always present to be a welfare bully at every opportunity that arose.
"Yeah, looks good. That bastard doesn't take the economy class. How dare he make such a blatant approach to the girl of my dreams. He's lucky to be a little better than me, but he will wait and see the date of the game." Thom observed once again that Brian was not there. He was still pissed off at everything about Brian.
"Hey, Thom, the two fairies are leaving soon. Are you going to waste this golden opportunity? They're pretty hard to find in a spare time, you know." Jerry nudged his friend and gave a cue that seemed to point to the two girls.
"Oh, for the sake of future prosperity and happiness, Jerry, come with me. I know you have a crush on that princess and her nice chest booty. We'll get to know them better." Thom slapped his thigh with enthusiasm. Then, he went to chase the two girls while pulling his friend's arm.
"Hey, even if it's true, why should I participate in your clause?" Jerry helplessly could only go along with the slightest complaint.
"Heh, shy but willing, as usual of you." Thom smirked with a sneer.
"Hehe." Jerry could only smile with an awkward expression because it was true.
He had faith about the bigger, the better. But, it was within the specific rules that he applied to himself. If he was asked to choose the prettiest girl with the best booty, then Evelyn was the first choice.
The two boys immediately strode across the distance to catch up with Elysia and Evelyn, who had just left the classroom. Fortunately, their conversation just a moment ago took place in whispered voices, or they might put a bad mark on themselves among boys like Brian.
Meanwhile, Elysia and Evelyn were casually walking side by side down the hallway. They didn't realize two male students were chasing them. Elysia or Elena didn't even know about the conversation between these two boys.
"Excuse me, Miss Evelyn, Miss Elysia, can you please take a minute?" Suddenly a voice came from behind them.
Elysia and Evelyn, who were engrossed in their small talk, immediately fell silent, then looked back to see who had called them. Two male students were approaching with friendly smiles like a merchant.
"Yes, is there something?" Evelyn went straight to the main point without the preamble of courtesy.
"Ah, haha... Nothing, we want to get acquainted with beautiful, kind and talented girls like you two. My name is Thom Duncan. I am the first son of the Viscount Duncan Family. Nice to meet you." Thom introduced himself fluently as if he had been trained beforehand. But, he unconsciously stretched out his hand as if asking for a handshake.
"Lovely to meet you, gorgeous fairies. I am blessed with the name Jerry Jones. The only son and heir of the Earl Jones Family." Jerry gave a little bow like a gentleman.
"Ah, haha... Delighted to make your acquaintance. I feel you already know us, so excuse our impoliteness to skip introductions." Evelyn clasped her hands in front and responded in a polite formality.
She didn't want to accept any handshakes from men, thanks to her best friend's explanation of the handshake event between Brian and Ashton.
Also, the handshake was only carried out in an agreement or the like in the world of commerce. So, why was this Thom asking for a handshake in self-introduction? Did he still get carried away because of economy class? Whatever the reason, Evelyn made herself clear with implied actions.
"..." Elysia didn't even need to answer anything because Evelyn had to represent herself in that sentence. She just subtly nodded while waiting for the sequel from these two male students.
Thom glanced at his hand, which moved involuntarily, then pulled it back with a hint of embarrassment. He felt stupid not only because his hand was ignored hanging in the air, but also because he offered a handshake during his introduction to girls.
For the next few moments, Thom and Jerry took turns talking about a few things without letting these two beauties excuse themselves.
To the point that Elysia and Evelyn were a little overwhelmed. They were not even given much opportunity to respond other than to hear a lot of nonsense. Every time they were about to excuse themselves to leave, these two male students suddenly interrupted them... Their polite manner of leaving was thwarted several times.
The polite smile on Evelyn's face slowly faded with irritation, but it was not visible to these two male students. She instinctively grabbed Elysia's hand then stood in front a little as if protecting her best friend.
These two male students were less sensitive and experienced. They got carried away just because these two beauties responded pleasantly.
'Tsk, they're annoying and irritating. Ely, may I shut up their chattering mouths?' Elena covered her ears by exaggerating the situation.
'Wait a moment, Sister Elena. I'll give them one more minute. At that time, these two male students and their crap, no matter finished or not. I'll just leave without courtesy.' Elysia restrained her guardian angel from doing anything arbitrarily.
'Oh, fine. Let's see, one minute from now. Hmm, if these annoying boys are still babbling nonsense... Some bees that will accidentally fly off to visit their lips might be of help, hehe...' Elena laughed evilly like a famous villain.
Elysia just rolled her eyes at it. She slowly walked backward while holding Evelyn's hand, but the two boys moved forward instead. Until they stood against the wall like two cornered rabbits.
The few students who happened to be there were just watching their exchange without doing anything. Didn't that moment look like two little girls being bullied by two bullies? Why wasn't anyone helping to be a scapegoat? Elysia complained in her mind. The scapegoat plan was deemed impossible. Maybe a direct way without politeness or kindness was the only way out of this.
Not far from them, Brian and some of his fellow bodybuilding club members were taking a leisurely stroll towards a place that happened to need to pass that hallway.
"Haha... You see and feel it clearly, Brian, you pretentious boy? How does defeat feel? Do the ashes of my victory amaze you?" Ashton walked to the front as if he was the leader of the line.
"Tsk, you only won once. It was nothing more than luck." Brian clicked his tongue with an exasperated expression.
"Haha! That's good to compete on good terms. Two thumbs up for the two of you." The muscular senior with slightly shiny blackish skin tapped his junior's shoulders with a big smile.
"Err, thanks, Senior Mario." Ashton responded with a smile that was no less wide than his senior. He even showing his bright white teeth.
As for Brian, he staggered a little as he was not prepared to receive a firm pat from his senior's burly hand. However, he didn't embarrass himself by falling and being used as a laughing stock.
"Haha, postpone your competition for a while. Let us teach the juniors how we can restock our club consumption. The protein food we have is exclusive, and it just arrived at the academy warehouse. You have to get acquainted with our regular merchant for your own good." The senior with a naturally fierce face smiled happily at the enthusiasm of the three new juniors.
At that instant, Brian accidentally saw two girls being cornered against the wall by two male students. Two girls were being bullied by two bullies? At that moment, his heroic soul flared up to immediately save the beauties.
