Chapter 16 - Revenge Plan

"Rei-nee, I think you've got it wrong. Yukino isn't that kind of person. She is truly a kind person. She really loves Limon." I tried to correct her. 

"If she truly loves him, then why don't you just give up on her?" Rei-nee asked. 

"Well.... Um.. It's just that I can't give up on her.  She is the one who really cared for me. She was the first person to encourage me. I just can't forget that." I replied. 

"That's why I told you that you have Stockholm syndrome. No matter how logically I prove to you that Yukino is not a good person, you won't believe me. You didn't even believe Yukino herself. You've made an image in your mind that Yukino is an angel. And you're following that agenda," Rei-nee annoyingly said. 

"Sorry, I guess." I apologized. 

"It's not something that you should apologize for. It wasn't your fault for developing that kind of syndrome. It was the situation. There is some way that will help you to cure yourself." Rei-nee sighed. 

"There is some way to cure that?" 

"Nope. There is, but I don't really know if it will help you or not," Rei-nee said. 

"Okay. Please tell me about that. Even though I still don't believe that Yukino is a bad girl. But I do want to give up on her," I replied. 

"That's like a good boy. Okay, the first and most simple way is that you have to give up on her. But I don't think you will be able to do that," Rei-nee explained. 

"Yeah. I can just control myself in front of her." 

"That's creepy in its own way. Okay, the second way is to rape her.  Either way, she won't love you, so you should force her. She did hurt you, so she should know the taste of her own medicine. This was the way the protagonist chose in that novel. I think I also recommend you to do that." Rei-sama recommended. 

Rape her? No way. In that way, she would really hate me. I don't want that. I don't want to hurt her. She is a good girl after all. 

"Sorry,  I don't want to hurt her. Besides, that's a crime," I replied. 

"You're too soft. I guess there is also a reason for that. It's just that you don't want to go against her. You're like a loyal dog to her. And about crime, you don't have to worry about that. Our Silverstorm house rules over the underground world in this Moonland kingdom. Even the king won't dare to oppose us carelessly." 

Rei-nee said proudly. 

Eh?! That's a shocking reveal. I didn't know that. 

"I understand. What about the third option?" Rei-nee asked. 

"Um.. It's kinda a classic idea," Rei-nee said with a shaky smile. 

"Classic idea?" 

"Yeah. You see, your charm towards girls used to be low. But I guess you did something with the help of your system. Right now you're becoming handsome. I think we just need to modify you. I will contact a beautician. She will make you really a beautiful person. Besides, you have learned how to behave like a smart person. You are right now the heir of a duke's family. I will announce that you will be the future head of the Silverstorm family. With all these points, I am sure that she will regret not choosing you. I am sure that she will try to come close to you. Just make her fall for you and then reject her. That's the best way to take revenge." Rei-nee explained. 

Revenge, huh? I guess I do want to take revenge on them for what they did that day.

But in this way, I won't be able to get my revenge on Limon. 

"Then what about Limon?" I asked. 

"You don't have to worry about him. You see, I told you that some low-level nobles are promoted, right? That means some commoners will also get promoted. So, Limon's family and Yukino's family will be promoted too. Their family used to be rich after all. So,  they did have some connections with noble society. Also, their family did contribute to the country. Both of their families will be placed under our care. You know what I mean, right? They will have to bow to you. After becoming a noble, they will definitely transfer to the Central Royal Academy. I will prepare you in a way that you will be on the top of the castle in that class. Just because they have recently become a low level noble, they will be at the lowest level in the castle. You can understand the feeling of becoming the lowest level in the castle, right? You were in that position up until now. I will make sure that everyone hates Limon there. Well,  I don't think I need to do anything extra. With his character, he will definitely be hated. Nobles are delicate creatures after all," Rei-nee explained. 

She really planned that much!? I have never thought that she would think that much ahead of time. But I do know Limon is a bad person. But what about Limon and Yukino's family situation? 

"Umm, what about their family? I don't really want to hurt innocent people."

"All of their family members are kind. I don't know how they ended up becoming like this. Limon's reputation was bad even in his family. But Yukino wears the mask of being innocent even at her home too. I wonder sometimes, why doesn't she just feel exhausted? She would become a great actor, if she wanted." Rei-nee sighed. 

So, Yukino is really a good person. A bad person can't really act all the time. I think I am right. 

" On the topic of being an actor, why don't you just become a model? I mean, I do want to make you famous so that people in your new school have a good impression on you. So, I guess if you appear in the most famous magazine, you will surely become famous. I do want to introduce you to the whole country. I want everyone to know that you are an awakened being too. You are the heir of this Silverstorm house. So,  you should be famous," Rei-nee said with sparkling eyes. 

Isn't she too excited? I mean, why does she think that this old way of revenge will work out? 

"I think it would cause problems with temples if they find out that their awakening rituals were wrong. 

So, I should not reveal my awakened attributes." 

"Don't worry, I know the Cardinal. She would help you with your awakening report. I have already contacted her. She was really excited about meeting you. Well, a person having so much mana that his status wasn't shown on the machine can only be heard in history. To be frank, you don't even know how special you are," Rei-nee excitedly said. 

The cardinal is the head of our country's religious group. In this world, Shinap is the most famous religion. In this religion, people worship many Gods and Goddess. Sun Goddess Amaterasu is considered as the most powerful Goddess in this world. Central Tample in the Holy Amaterasu Empire is the center of this religion. The pope holds the highest position within this religion. The cardinals come next. Our kingdom has a good relationship with the Holy Amaterasu Empire. That's why they always send a cardinal to our country as a head of priests. 

"I don't think I am special or anything." 

"You are. Well, to the sum of it is, you have to learn how to behave like a noble. Then meet the Cardinal. Then shoot in the magazine and, lastly, go to your new school and become famous." Rei-nee told me the plan. 

Isn't it too classical and straight forward? Well, whatever.

"But learning how to behave is something that can't be mastered within a day." 

"You don't have to learn all the things. It's just basics. You have to improve yourself within a few days." Rei-nee reassured me. 

"Oh, then I think I can manage somehow."  

"You're good at adopting in a new situation. That's a good habit of yours." Rei-nee praised me. 

"Th-thanks, I guess. So, it's confirmed that I will be changing schools, huh?" 

"Huh! You're thinking about it now? How slow are you? Well,  maybe I was explaining too fast." Rei-nee sighed. 

"No, no, I did understand the plan and everything. I was just wondering if I would be able to return to my old school." 

"You will be. You have to officially say goodbye everyone. You have to make every piece of shit regret. They have to regret their actions after all. But your model debut comes first," Rei-nee explained. 

"I guess  I understand."
