After I finished speaking, Lilith took my hand and led me toward the cafeteria.
At that moment, I felt like there was nothing I could do.

Chapter 123: Ordinary Friends
……
"squeak……"
Around midnight, I heard the creaking sound of the old bolt as the dormitory iron gate was opened, which meant that it was about time for Hilfi to return.
"Boom...boom..."
The sound of Hilfi's snow boots on the floor seemed like she was deliberately slowing down her steps; it was clear from her usual walking that she was tiptoeing.
"Boom...boom..."
The footsteps grew closer, the sound traveling down the corridor, seemingly heading towards my room.
Suddenly, the footsteps seemed to stop; they were in front of my bedroom door.
I got out of bed and walked to the bedroom door.
"Waaah..."
It was a cry, but extremely faint.
I slowly sat down by the door, as if I could feel the warmth on the other side of the door even through it.
I have never experienced what this feeling is like, and I also don't know what kind of feelings Silphi is in.
I can't understand it. I know Sylphie has always revolved around me. I can understand how important I am to her. Her parents were killed before her eyes, and she lived a life of dependence. Do I really love her...?
I didn't know that I had even considered grooming her into the type of girl I liked.
Maybe, I like it too...
but……
Thinking about what I've done, I already had an engagement with Alice, yet I still fantasized about taking both Silphie and Alice into my possession. It was simply wishful thinking.
I still remember the scene when she walked into the classroom with tears in her eyes, saying things like, "Mogolei and I still have class."
“Silphie…is that you…”
I didn't hear a response, only soft sobs, like the kind of sobs that are suppressed and not made a sound.
What should I do in this situation?
She probably wished I would rush out of the house and hug her.
But am I worthy?
What right do I have to hug her?
A scumbag like me, already engaged yet still insatiable, claiming to love her but sleeping with other women, someone like me is not worthy of Silphie's affection.
When I first enrolled, I confessed my feelings to Silphie and asked her to date me, but thankfully she rejected me.
The sobbing gradually subsided, and I opened the door. The girl in the shadows had already returned to her bedroom.
……
Hilfi was returning to her dormitory later and later.
"Oh dear, Lord Rudeus, aren't you in a hurry at all about the bet?"
"Of course I'm anxious. Right now, my mind is completely blank, and I don't have a single idea."
Lilith sat across from me. She always ordered a lot of food, but she couldn't eat much. She would usually only take one bite of each dish.
After all, she is the eldest daughter of the Aiolos family, and her lifestyle is very aristocratic.
However, Alice, who was also a young lady, did not have the aristocratic habit of "no more than three spoonfuls of rice" like Lilith. This may have been influenced by the habits of the Boreas family, because during the five years in Roya, there was not much attention paid to eating.
To be honest, I don't have much time to think about the delinquent groups of teenagers in the Kingdom of Asura and the Kingdom of Wanglong, or those two delinquent beast girls.
A week has passed since Lilith made her outrageous remarks in the student council room, and Silphie can only leave it at that. She probably doesn't want to talk to me, since I was so intimate with Lilith in front of her, and I can't explain anything to her.
Perhaps she was avoiding me. She always returned to her dorm very, very late at night, and she no longer waited for me when I went for my morning run. I couldn't see her all day long.
"Lord Rudius!"
"Yes, yes, I'm here, I'm here."
Lilith suddenly called out in my ear, but it didn't startle me. I just gave her a casual reply to get rid of her.
"Being troubled by love is not a good thing, Lord Rudeus."
As she spoke, she ran her little finger across my shoulder, clearly trying to seduce me.
"Isn't my heartbreak caused by you?"
A beautiful girl with brown hair was sitting next to me, swaying her impressive breasts to distract my vision, teasing me with her little finger to distract my sense of touch, and calling my name in my ear to distract my hearing. It was really hard for me to think calmly.
"Lord Rudeus, you should know yourself that you and Miss Hilfiet can never be together."
Is it impossible for Sylphie and I to be together?
"Why do you say that..."
"Don't forget your identity, Lord Rudeus. You are engaged to the eldest daughter of the Boreas family."
“But Philip and Lady Hilda said they agreed to let me, Hilda, and Alice be together…”
Upon hearing my words, Lilith's gaze sharpened, directly interrupting my speech.
"It's just what your aunt and uncle said to coax you into getting Lord Rudeus and Alice engaged. No noble family would allow their future son-in-law to have an affair with another woman before marrying their daughter, let alone a commoner's daughter."
"Actually, I've thought about this before, but my original plan was to take a concubine..."
"Do you think Miss Hilfiet is the kind of person who could be a concubine? Not to mention whether Alice would accept her, at least your uncle and aunt certainly wouldn't."
"..."
She was indeed pointing out a real problem, one I couldn't answer. Sylphie's identity and my engagement with Alice might not be so simple. Although I don't care about those things, some people do, about the so-called "marrying someone of equal social standing"...
"If you want to think about Miss Hilfiet and Lord Rudeus, then let's just remain ordinary friends. If you cross the line, neither of you will likely end up well."
"Just friends... is that right..."
"Lord Rudius, look over there."
Lilith suddenly patted my shoulder and pointed to a group of orc men and women in front of us.
I think I saw a group of people like this when I first enrolled: more than twenty orc students surrounding two orc women, one with cat ears and the other with dog ears. They were dressed very casually, somewhat similar to Kyrie Il.
Now, this group of people have blatantly cut off the line of people waiting to get food at the window. If this had happened twenty or thirty years ago, I, bursting with a sense of justice, would definitely have become a champion of justice, rushed forward to stop them, and then gotten a beating.
As for now, it's probably best to stay out of it and mind your own business.
hiss……
It seems that it's not just two beast girls that need to be dealt with, but a small group of delinquent teenagers.
On the other side, it also seems to be a small group of delinquent teenagers.
So that means...
Hey! You two! Get out of here!
Just as I was pondering this, the orc delinquent appeared before me. He crossed his arms, revealing his well-developed muscles, and standing behind him were the two orc ladies, Linia and Prusena.
……
Student Union Room, La Noah Magic University
……
It was just past dinner time when a long-eared girl with emerald green hair and wearing a white student council uniform was organizing documents in the student council room. Standing next to her was a woman in a black student council uniform, the student council president, Cosette Caroline.
"It's not your work time yet, Hilfiet."
"It's okay, I have nothing to do anyway, I'll go to the library in a bit."
The girl answered softly.
Cosette sat down on the table beside her, crossed her arms, and sighed softly:
"How are things going between you and Rudius?"
The girl paused for a moment, put down the documents in her hand, and her eyes immediately welled up with tears.
"I have no idea."
Chapter 124: Conflict
Jobless Reincarnation: Even Without Transfer Events, I Will Still Live Seriously [Chapter 124] Conflict
Chapter 124: Conflict
……
"Hey, you two, get out of here! Did you hear me?!"
A burly orc standing in front roared at Lilith and me.
I looked around and saw that there were empty seats or other people eating there, so I guessed that someone had been harassed.
When I was in high school, delinquents would often deliberately harass me because of my obesity. For example, they would suddenly surround me during lunch and throw my lunch on the ground. If I dared to resist even slightly or show any anger, they would beat me mercilessly, strip me naked, and mock me as a "phimotic man." Sometimes they would even pour food all over me, from head to toe, and then tie me to the school's iron fence to attract a crowd of onlookers.
I never want to have those memories of being bullied again.
Faced with this situation, Lilith acted as if no one was around, continuing to eat her food bit by bit. I knew she couldn't possibly finish it all, but she remained remarkably calm. Watching her slowly and deliberately put the food into her mouth, I also tried to calm myself down, just like her.
He pretended not to hear it and let the orc shout.
"I'm talking to you! Did you hear me?!"
Just as I was about to put the mashed potatoes into my mouth, the orc grabbed my collar. He was very tall, and at that moment I was already half-floating in the air.
"They're going to hit someone! Run!"
"Where's the student council?! The student council needs to come and take charge!"
"Isn't that Rudeus on the blackboard?!"
"Run! Run! Those two young ladies from the beast race are bullying us again!"
When I first arrived at this school, my impression of the student council was that it was disciplined, pragmatic, and beneficial to the people. It was so much better than the student council of my stupid high school.
Even the entrance to the cafeteria has people standing guard like soldiers, and there are also people specifically responsible for patrolling inside the cafeteria.
Even a student council with such high efficiency and discipline can only turn a blind eye to the delinquent group of the two young ladies from the beast race. It seems Cosette was right; they are indeed a headache.
"You're here to cause trouble, aren't you?"
I looked at the two beast-girls behind the big guy who was pulling at my collar.
"That's right, you disagree, meow?"
The cat-eared girl crossed her arms to support two enormous mountains, raised her head, and looked at me arrogantly. In her eyes, I could only see two words: "contempt".
"What an eyesore," Fakle said.
The dog-eared girl standing next to her was munching on something that looked like jerky, her chest still bulging with impressive curves; indeed, beastmen were all quite magnificent.
"He's just like Kyrie Irvine..."
Seeing the two girls' towering breasts, I couldn't help but mutter to myself.
"He seems to know Aunt Girenu."
"Many people know Aunt Kyrie Irvine, meow."
Hey, hey, hey, I heard you both! Your whispers are a bit too loud.
I had heard Kyrie Irgen say before that orcs have very sensitive hearing and smell, and now I realize that's true. Even when I spoke in a very soft voice, Lilith, who was closest to me, might not have been able to hear me, but the two of them could hear me very easily.
"Is this comfortable, Lord Rudeus? You seem to be enjoying it."
"It's alright."
Lilith's voice came from behind me. I turned my head to look at Lilith, who was wiping the corner of her mouth with a silk handkerchief. There was still at least five-sixths of the food left in front of her, but she didn't seem to have any intention of eating anymore. Is this what a real noble lady is like? What a waste.
