You have to know that he had almost completely abandoned his self-respect to extend his life, but in the end... in the end...
Alright, not talking about it won't make it hurt less. But Negut still felt depressed and desperate.
Everything he did was destroyed by one action of Mr. Smith.
"Huh!" Suddenly, Mr. Smith angrily shouted, "Alec, what did you just say?"
Alec frowned, his eyes full of killing intent, moving from Negut to Mr. Smith.
"You hit your classmate, and now you're threatening to kill him?" Mr. Smith said angrily. "What do you mean by that look? Do you want to kill me?"
"I can't believe there's such a stupid and violent student in this class."
"You should remember, your enemies are the monsters out there, not your kind, and certainly not your classmates."
Hearing Smith's words, Alec clenched his fists, his teeth gritted, and the blood vessels in his eyes became visible, making his eyes seem to turn red.
"Mr. Smith!" Alec growled, "He was harassing a female student; I hit him to protect her. Besides, he's not my friend, so don't say such nonsense."
Negut, sitting at the back, shuddered at the scene and their words.
'Damn it! Your conflict has nothing to do with me; why drag me into it?'
'AAA!!! Is being a villain this miserable? I want to cry, but why can't the tears come out?'
Smith was a bit startled to see Alec not afraid of him and even resisting him.
At this moment, Smith angrily shouted, "Alec! It seems your violent nature cannot be changed. So I will represent the academy and propose your expulsion, so you can survive among the monsters out there."
"I want to see if you'll still be this tough or if you'll become food for the monsters out there."
Negut held his forehead while thinking, 'Are you guys crazy? Can't you see he's angry?'
'When the protagonist is angry, blood flows like a river, and corpses pile up like mountains.'
'Mr. Smith, I hope you can live longer than me. I hope your family doesn't get killed by Alec.'
Negut remembered the novels he had read with similar scenarios.
When the protagonist was humiliated, he would restrain himself so that his revenge would be even more terrifying later.
Anyone who insulted, despised, or had conflicts with the protagonist could not survive. Even the families and relatives of those who opposed the protagonist were implicated.
Alec gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Smith, you're a teacher, but you're favouring Negut because he's the governor's son?"
"Ah! You noticed that too?" Mr. Smith said disdainfully. "That's normal; should I favour a useless person without parents like you?"
"Ah! Maybe your parents were useless too, so they gave birth to a useless person like you."
"D-Rank swordsman, who do you think you are? An A-Rank Holy Swordsman?"
"You... you want to die, don't you?" Alec clenched his fists; the sound of bones cracking made Grove, who was sitting next to him, scared.
"Calm down a bit, restrain yourself; everything will be fine," Grove hurriedly reassured Alec.
"Huh!" Alec snorted disdainfully. "He can insult me, but he cannot insult my status and my parents."
"You and Negut... you will definitely die... die miserably... I..."
"Enough!" Suddenly, Negut's voice rang out, interrupting Alec.
Alec frowned, turning to look at Negut with eyes full of cold killing intent.
Negut sighed and said, "Mr. Smith, Alec, and I had a conflict, but he's right, I was the one who bothered Selvia."
"He hit me to protect Selvia, so he is not at fault. I hope Mr. Smith can withdraw that proposal so Alec can continue studying here."
Mr. Smith was startled to hear that. Frowning, he asked, "Negut, are you telling the truth? You... he..."
"Alright, Mr. Smith. Alec and I have made peace; there is no more conflict. I hope you don't make things more complicated, understand?"
Hearing Negut speak, Smith gritted his teeth, then sighed and said, "Good! Then everything ends here; I will withdraw that proposal."
Smith certainly didn't dare to go against Negut's wishes. After all, over 80% of the school's shares belonged to the Chancellor, and if he wanted to be unemployed, he could try to oppose Negut's words.
Moreover, Smith's goal was to please Negut, so Negut's decision was also his decision.
Alec was once again surprised, and he looked at Negut with suspicion and confusion.
He didn't know what Negut was trying to do, thinking to himself, 'Could Grove be right? Has Negut changed his personality?'
'But... why? Did he wake up from being beaten by me and decide not to be a bad person?'
Alec didn't know, but he couldn't find any reason to explain Negut's strange actions.
"Everyone!" Mr. Smith suddenly spoke again, "Negut has bravely admitted his mistake, and he even took the initiative to make peace with Alec."
"Every day, we do many wrong things, but we don't have the courage to admit our mistakes."
"On the contrary, Negut has that courage, which is very commendable and worth learning from. Therefore, let's applaud Negut's actions."
Everyone: "..."
Alec: "..."
Negut: "..."
'Do you really want to please me this much?' Negut cursed inwardly.
He didn't think that even though Smith was a teacher, he would be this biased.
Everyone, of course, could only follow Smith's words and start clapping. The reluctant applause echoed, and the faces of those clapping were full of boredom.
Negut was so embarrassed that he just wanted to find a hole to crawl into and use his hands to cover his face.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Alec turned his head, looking at Grove, who was clapping enthusiastically with a smile. He asked angrily: "Are you my friend or his?"
"Ack! Well... of course, I'm your friend," Grove said with an awkward smile.
"So why are you clapping?"
"Hahaha... it's Mr. Smith's order; of course, I have to follow it. After all, I don't want to be expelled," Grove replied, his face showing a bit of embarrassment.
"Tsk!" Alec clicked his tongue, looking at Mr. Smith with displeasure.
Although this matter had ended, for the protagonist Alec, Negut knew... it wasn't over yet.
Negut sighed, feeling extremely tired. He felt that even though he was the villain, perhaps his death wouldn't be caused by himself.
Sometimes, the conflicts between the protagonist and him were mostly caused by subordinates or people related to him.
For example, although Negut had no intention of using his power to expel Alec from the academy, Mr. Smith would do it to please Negut.
If Negut didn't know and stop this after Alec took revenge on Smith, the next target would be him.
Negut tiredly checked the information panel about his remaining lifespan.
At this moment, Negut's lifespan had increased to 45 days. Although it was less than before, it was enough for him to breathe a sigh of relief.
'Damn it!' Negut cursed inwardly: 'I have to inform everyone associated with me not to mess with Alec; otherwise, I might not even know the reason for my death.'
After thinking this, Negut took out his phone and once again sent a message to everyone he knew, including his friends and bodyguards.
After editing the message and pressing send, Negut breathed a sigh of relief, then lay down on the table and began to sleep.
Even if he studied, he couldn't learn anything; after all, he wasn't a survivor. Besides, who would dare to disturb him while he slept in class?
Moreover, Negut was really exhausted. Having just arrived in this world in less than a day, he had to do countless things and go through countless events that made him tired.
Especially when he first arrived in this world, he endured two bouts of pain that almost made him see Heaven.
Therefore, this was the time he needed to sleep to recover his spirit.
Alec frowned as he watched Negut sleep soundly, feeling something strange and uncomfortable inside.
"What's wrong?!" Grove asked quietly.
Alec sighed and shook his head, "Nothing, just... feeling a bit uneasy."
"Alright, don't think too much. He helped you avoid getting expelled; do you still hate him?"
Hearing Grove's words, Alec frowned. He wanted to explain something but ultimately did not know how.
That feeling was very strange, urging Alec to immediately cause trouble with Negut, creating as much conflict as possible.
Alec shook his head, trying to dispel the thoughts, but then he thought about many things, not paying attention to Mr. Smith's lecture.
Ding dong!
Ding dong!
Time passed quickly, and an hour later, the bell rang again, signalling the end of the theory class.
Negut was startled awake by the sound of the bell. He looked around and saw everyone starting to prepare their tools and clothes for the next practical lesson.
'Ah! Next is the practical lesson. Alright, I'm not a survivor; staying here is useless,' Negut thought to himself.
Immediately after, he stood up, ready to leave. After all, he was here only to gather information and check whether his plan was feasible.
He had achieved what he wanted; there was no need to stay any longer.
"Selvia?! Did you come looking for me?"
