The random characters in the dating sim world are a bit bad.

“It’s alright, Livia. I spent some time in the palace because of the breach of contract, so I have experience wearing maid outfits.”

A hint of bitterness flashed in Angelica's eyes as she spoke, but it was quickly dispelled by joy.

Now she has her best friends Olivia and Leon, and from now on she will live for herself, so bitterness is far behind her.

Angelica went to the table where Lyon had placed the tea set, picked up one of the teacups, and began to examine it.

"These teacups are so pretty."

Olivia didn't know much about tea sets, but she could tell that the teacups in front of her were exquisite. The tea sets used by Angelica at the tea party hosted by Biron were also quite beautiful.

"Livia, our chances of making money now depend on these teacups worth 10,000 tia!"

"One, ten thousand taels!!!"

Angelica was somewhat frightened by what Leon said.

As the duke's daughter, even the teacups she used to serve guests did not cost 10,000 tia each, while the most basic teacups in the cafés that Lyon is currently hosting cost 10,000 tia each, and a complete set (four teacups and a teapot) would probably cost more than 100,000 tia.

"On the day of the school festival, if some unpleasant guests come, will they make things difficult for us?"

Lyon brought the teacup to his eyes, revealing a terrifyingly greedy gaze.

"Uh-huh!"

Olivia nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

"Since they're making things difficult for us, they'll definitely get angry and throw the teacup away! Such an exquisite teacup would surely make a loud, ostentatious noise if thrown away! And the kingdom's laws stipulate that broken items must be compensated according to regulations!"

Leon put down his teacup, took out the sign he had prepared for the school festival, and pointed out the two lines of text on it.

"Damage to property will be compensated 100 times the amount" and "Entering this store signifies acceptance of the above rules."

"Your words are so small that you definitely won't see them if you're not looking carefully. Those who want to cause trouble for you won't even look at the sign."

Angelica, seeing Leon's state, couldn't help but feel sorry for the unpleasant guests who might come.

"Leon, you're so mean."

Olivia, as usual, denounced Leon's evil deeds, but it all looked like a charming contrast.

"Leon, something terrible has happened! Look outside right now!"

Daniel's excited voice came from outside!

Volume 2 School Life: Chapter 42 Should I Use a Lap Pillow as Compensation?

Outside in the corridor, Leon saw Julius handing out flyers to passing girls.

"Come anytime you have time. You're very welcome!"

Julius's handsome smile made the girls blush.

"Okay, okay!"

"I will do my best during these three days of the school festival."

"I...I also spend a lot of money."

Listening to the short, faint sounds, Leon suddenly felt that there was something seriously wrong with these girls.

What do you mean I'll spend a lot of money too? This sounds like the kind of crazy fan who's obsessed with celebrities and willing to spend a fortune just to meet their idol.

Fortunately, Leon's sister Gina hasn't done anything reckless so far, otherwise he would have to discuss pocket money with Barcos.

"Lyon, their coffee shop seems to be right across from ours."

Olivia took a flyer and handed it to Lyon.

Looking at the glaring "Princess Cafe" sign above, Leon couldn't help but frown.

Because the above charges are outrageous, they charge according to the time of service, and a cup of tea can cost tens of thousands of tiya!

For a moment, Leon suddenly felt like a normal person again. The rule of one to one hundred was completely incomparable to the service fees of Julius and the others.

Julius smiled victoriously as he looked at Leon's dejected appearance, and after glancing at Leon and the others, he spoke with a confident tone.

“Bartofalt, we will not lose to you this time. If you would like, you are welcome to come and visit on that day, Angelica as well.”

“Hey! Ange has nothing to do with you anymore, so don’t use that commanding tone. Remember, Your Highness Julius! In the end, I never intended to win against you, and in my opinion, defeating you is not an honor at all.”

Leon was furious, as if protecting something he cherished. After expressing his dissatisfaction, he grabbed Angelica and Olivia's hands and led them back into the classroom, his face full of anger.

"Leon, are you alright? You seemed a little strange when you were angry earlier."

Although Olivia was somewhat puzzled as to why Leon was angry, she still went over to check on him.

"I'm fine, Livia. I just feel like I didn't hit him hard enough. This guy not only broke his promise, but he also had that arrogant attitude. It really made me want to punch him."

The more Lyon thought about what had just happened, the angrier he became, which made him seem very strange.

"Thank you, Leon."

Angelica also came up to comfort her, with a hint of apology in her voice.

[It seems that Lyon is quite... hostile towards His Highness.]

Thinking this to herself, Angelica couldn't help but blush.

"It's okay. If you feel bad about it, just give me another lap pillow."

Leon will never forget the comfort of resting his head on their laps and the faint fragrance that captivated him.

"Bartofalt, you filthy bastard! Die!"

Leon's words reminded Angelica of what happened that day. A strange fluctuation came from the proud spot, and then she clenched her fist and blew it up.

Olivia, who felt the same way, blushed so much that she squeezed Leon harder, making him feel quite painful.

"Ouch! It hurts!"

This bittersweet feeling deeply captivated Leon.

…………

With the school festival approaching, every student is working hard to promote the event in order to increase the number of customers.

Because Leon was busy preparing for work, Angelica was an executive committee member, and Daniel and Raymond were busy increasing their intimacy with girls, the promotion of the coffee shop was handed over to Olivia.

"Livia, you can do it! Go for it!"

Olivia held the flyer in her hand to bolster her courage, and then, somewhat fearfully, began to promote it among the crowd.

"Private Marseille, please take a look at this."

Olivia handed out flyers to several boys who were also promoting their own shops.

"Is that a coffee shop? We'll come over when we have time. We'll be setting up a crepe stall there sometime, so please come visit us."

The boys politely accepted Olivia's flyer and then gave a little reverse publicity to their own booth.

Olivia breathed a sigh of relief after the promotion ended; she had expected to be met with cold stares or harsh words. Next, Olivia handed out flyers to several passing boys, and the process went very smoothly.

The boys didn't have much of a problem with Olivia being a special student, but the girls certainly had a different opinion.

Olivia encountered difficulties when she handed a flyer to a girl on a bench.

"Um, this is our coffee shop's advertisement, please take a look."

"Special admission student, you mean the coffee shop opened by Bartofalt? I wouldn't go to a place like that. Are you going to get carried away just because you've won his favor? Don't forget you're just a commoner!"

The girl's two companions on the bench then spoke up to give her some advice.

"Stop talking. This special admission student is very much favored by the Duke's daughter."

"You're right. It's best if we don't get involved."

The two companions led the girl away while talking.

Hearing the three people's words, Olivia felt disappointed, but she quickly cheered up and started a new round of promotion, though the bitterness in her eyes did not disappear.

"Is it a coffee shop? Are there any tickets left?"

"Yes, it is."

Olivia turned around nervously upon hearing the female voice behind her and saw a girl with a gentle smile.

"You must be a special admission student. My name is Kara von Wayne, the second daughter of a baronial family, and I'm in the regular class."

Kara, with her long blue hair, introduced herself to Olivia. Her gentle smile showed no dislike for the special admissions student, but a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.

The curriculum for advanced and regular classes differs; for example, mecha lessons are only offered to advanced students. Advanced and regular classes only study together during events; otherwise, they are separate.

Olivia was pleased to be introduced to Kara, who seemed very gentle, and began to show her the coffee shop.

Kara was filled with impatience as Olivia introduced herself somewhat clumsily, but she forced herself to hold back and revealed her purpose after exchanging a few words with her.

"Um, could you introduce me to Baron Bartofarth?"

Lyon?

Olivia felt a pang of discomfort when she heard Kara mention the Baron, as if something was stuck in her throat.

"Well, I have a favor to ask of the Baron. Could you act as my intermediary?"

"An introduction? I understand. I'll tell Leon about it."

Kara thanked Olivia after she agreed, then turned and left, her face reverting to a look of disgust and revulsion.

Volume 2 School Life: Chapter 43 Leon, Get Ready! (Seeking First Subscription!)

On the day of the school festival.

A cup of colorful fireworks adorned the azure sky, announcing the official start of the school festival.

The nobles, who had long awaited their arrival, entered the academy, each with their own distinct purpose: some to savor the delicacies, others to reminisce with their families about their time at the academy, and some of the women even brought along demi-human slaves…

At that moment, a young woman with long white hair and an alluring charm walked into the campus.

"Oh my, they seem to be having a lot of fun. They've set up a lot of stalls."

Looking at the bustling school, Milenu's face showed joy, excitement, and anticipation, radiating a beautiful aura and halo like a naive girl who had just fallen in love.

"Your Highness, you're going too far with this. If you want to visit the school festival, wouldn't a formal visit be much better?"

The bodyguard, posing as a female guest, asked in a low voice, her sharp eyes constantly deterring the boys who wanted to approach.

"No, that won't do. That would be too boring. Besides, I need to give the Baron, who fooled the lovely Julius, a good talking-to."

Milenu's face revealed a fierce expression, but combined with her stunningly beautiful features, it exuded a certain allure and charm.

"Your Highness, we will do whatever you command..."
