The Branded Female Fencer

Jake's New Life, Part 3 - Anger

"This..."

"... what the hell, you're torn"

From what Jake saw, some of the bags were torn and one of the hands was removed. But no matter what you think, it wasn't taken naturally. Obviously someone did it in bad faith.

"Who did this to you?

"... I don't know"

"It won't mean I don't know"

I say like Jake got a little upset. But Lotte just shook her head sideways.

"I really know, but I can't tell you. 'Cause I'm a student of my status going through special measures here, and as soon as things go wrong, I'm expelled."

Special measures are a system whereby, instead of having schooling exempted when attending school, after graduation, they serve a certain number of years for the Church of Arnelia. Many ordinary people use this system to attend the Gloria School. Rather, it is a time when women cannot even choose a decent profession to take up, a system that women, if they are women, wish for or can't. Going to school was nearly impossible in itself. As Miranda says, it is also because of this system that the Sisters of the Arnelian Church are popular in the world.

And to Lotte's attitude, Jake makes the point that the killer must be someone of the nobility. If you follow the original, it must be the most stately Dute Hilde, though.

"I see, those guys"

"... what are you thinking?

On Jake's sword screen, Lotte looks anxious.

"Bad things are bad. Yeah, I'll tell them."

"What are we going to do?

"I'll tell you tomorrow in front of everyone. You can't forgive me for doing such a shady thing, can you?

"Stop it!

Jake was a little surprised because Lotte argued out loud.

"Hey, why not?"

"If you do that, it'll get worse."

"You have to try, right?

"Even I didn't just keep my mouth shut"

Lotte cries again.

"I disputed it at first. But it just gets extra bad... because as long as you keep your mouth shut, it's just gonna be like this, like I remember."

Then why are you crying today?

Jake tells me to deceive Lotte.

"Because my mother made this for me to go to school."

"... what?

"Here."

Indeed, there is an embroidery "to my dear Lotte" in the back of the bag.

"So what should I say to my mother? I would definitely be worried if I heard I was in school."

"... it's happening"

There is a flame of anger in Jake's eyes. Nobles and common people no longer had anything to do with Jake. Jake made up his mind when he absolutely pursued his responsibilities.

"And before that,"

I need to fix that bag.

Jake takes the needle, thread and cloth out of his own luggage. Today I happened to be bringing in a set of sewing tools to sew my torn clothes in the free time of school.

"Can you fix it?

"Well you're going to be filling the fabric from the back, but you're so clumsy because of the different colors. I don't know what to do... yes!

Jake rings his fingers with his pussy and takes out the scissors.

"Can I cut this bag for a second?

"What do you do?

"I look forward to that!

That's what Jake says, he starts cleverly cutting the bag with scissors. Lotte looked out for him worried about how it was going, but he raised his voice unexpectedly when he saw the bag that was slightly more and Jake had completed.

"Cute!"

"I've tried to shape Lilka's flowers... do you think?

Jake cut the torn part of the bag into the shape of a flower and put a cloth behind it. The original bag is brown, so the bright fabric looks like a flower. It could have been naive, but Lotte was more than happy with Jake's care.

"Oh, but at this age, I guess this is childish..."

"Yeah, I'm glad! I love and cherish Lilka's flowers."

Lotte was trying to hug her own bag. Encourage Lotte to lend that bag again and start fixing the handle part Jake.

"All right, we're almost there."

"Yeah."

Jake wasn't aware that Lotte's eyes stared at Jake sewing the bag next door with a slightly different emotion than earlier.

Just before the next day's lunch break, before everyone still leaves in the classroom, when Jake leaves in front of the classroom as soon as possible, Dan the blackboard! I slapped him.

"Hey! There's a guy in here who tore Lotte's bag yesterday, right? When!?

After talking to Lotte yesterday, Jake convinced Lotte that it still shouldn't be like this. Jake thought he would say no, but Lotte only nodded strangely. Jake didn't know why his attitude had suddenly changed and wondered, but he decided not to care.

And everyone looks at Jake for a moment at that word, but it was Dute Hilde who opened his mouth first.

"Well, Mr. Jake. Do you have proof?

"There is no evidence. But Lotte always said she was being harassed the same way."

"Is it possible that Mr. Lotte is lying?

"What!?

Jake gets angry with the words. But Dute Hilde responded only chilly.

It's possible, isn't it? Show me the evidence first. Speech preaching, such as doubting others without clear grounds. With that attitude, you're going to turn everyone in this class against the enemy, aren't you?

As Jake looked around, the noble children laughed lightly and looked at this one with white eyes all the time. You didn't think ordinary students wanted to get involved, they all look away from Jake.

And even more so, Dute Hilde continued.

"If you're going to apologize, it's time, isn't it, Jake?

"Why should I apologize?

"My apologies to the newcomers for treating all the humans in this class, including the aristocrats. I can't believe you don't know that. The common man seems a little weak in the head."

Couscous, and the nobles laugh. Jake was desperately suppressing himself, who seemed to manage with anger, even though he felt that he had fallen into the minds of the nobles. Jake when I was in Meesia would be beating me up with or without it.

"(Damn! Patience, patience... it's good for me to be ridiculed. I can stand as much of that as I want, and I'm good at patience. And you said Alberto. He said the power he gained as a knight is what he uses to protect what he wants to protect. My powers are for Lisa and everyone. Don't swing for yourself)"

Jake was looking down, enduring to be laughed at. You convinced that such an attitude gave you an advantage over Jake, Dute Hilde showers the word further.

"If you're not going to apologize for anything, there's something to deal with as a wasp. Let these wasps teach you how the world works when you disrupt discipline."

That's what he said, and the Dute Hildes left the classroom ridiculously.

A few days. Jake's thoughts are backwards, still speaking, but the harassment of the nobles began to turn to Jake. I guess you already know that Jake is from an orphan. Now that Jake is from some aristocracy, he can develop from such childhood to kingdom friendship, so the aristocrats also know that around him. Jake, who had a businesslike attitude toward Dute Hilde, did nothing but look into Jake's origins because they were looking into it. They also apparently knew Jake was in and out of the Holy Knights, but they didn't even know he was under the asylum of Miriazal in the Deep Green Palace. For that reason, he gave the impression that a child from an orphan would be going in and out to take care of the Knights with special measures.

But suddenly they are not foolish enough to make it surface. No, it might be more right that it's extra cloudy. How far can we go to get a counterattack, or will someone come out? To identify that border, the harassment of Jake increased little by little, little by little.

There's mud in Jake's luggage compartment, or bad language written on the blackboard. Sometimes the locker's luggage is thrown and scattered outside. Sometimes they pushed me away without meaning when I was wrong.

Nellie was naturally worried about how it was, and that was the same for both Rascal and Lotte. Now the other faces seemed to completely ignore Jake or avoid getting involved. No one will want to be pointed at the spearhead of the nobility. While I think Jake is an unconscious bunch of people, he was convinced that it would be inevitable.

But even with all that, Jake could still stand it. At least not until today.

And...

"Ahhh!

A scream came from the entrance to the classroom. Jake and Nellie came to school as usual, but when Nellie tried to enter the classroom first, a bucket of water fell from the top when she opened the classroom door. Nellie gets a lot wet as a matter of course and stands stunned on the spot. Ruth, who always followed me there to go to my junior classroom, also opened his usual sleepy eyes.

"Nellie!"

Jake pulls Nellie's hand and goes to the instructor's office. Ruddle had already just come across the scene on his way here, but he took a handful to see Nellie soaking wet and took her to the emergency room. Ruddle told Jake to be back in class first, but Jake and Ruth stood by the spot. Ruth is behind Jake, but even from behind, I know very well that Jake's fist is gripped with tremendous force.

I'm not afraid of most things, Ruth, but I was only afraid of Lisa's punishment and seriously angry Jake. By comparison, Ruth thinks it's not a fart to go to the bathroom alone at night or a dark haunt. What a child Ruth is still a child, as is the subject of comparison.

And without having to look at Jake's face, Ruth knew exactly what he was serious about.

"Gee, what do we do?

"It's decided."

Ruth asked somewhat roughly. Jake answers the words instantly.

"It's good to have your hands on me. But I can't forgive you for putting your hands on my family."

"I don't know. Looks like they have one more calf."

I look like Ruth was waiting for me. While Lisa was gone, the guys who were giving Jake and the others a glimpse were repelling Jake and Ruth. They don't know how far Lisa was aware of it, but they were desperate to get Lisa to worry about it. And Ruth is evil. I loved waxing. The moment he traps the evil kids, he feels unspeakable fulfillment.

But the look on Jake's face turned around was complicated.

"But what do I do? You can't just lay your hands on me and..."

"Don't fool around, right? We just have to make sure they don't blur."

"How?

"I don't know if this will happen, but I've already done it with a servant who followed me. Mimi."

Ruth whispers to Jake about the plan.
