Chapter 71- The Way Of A Totally Unimportant Character


    Rin heard a loud and annoying voiceing from behind him. At first, he thought that it was directed toward him but when he turned around, he was surprised to see that he wasn''t the one getting called.


    Instead, he saw a boy, possibly his age standing while getting surrounded by a group of guys that were quiterger than him in size and looked quite intimidating.


    "You look kinda rich, aren''t you?" The supposed leader of this group of idiots spoke again with a grin, making his friends snicker loudly.


    Many looked at this interaction but no one wanted to stop them as they had way too many things on their mind to bother helping another person.


    Looking at the boy who was in the middle again, Rin had a weird feeling that he saw him before. Trying to remember, he squinted his eyes and scanned his features carefully.


    The boy was shorter than him with a weak frame, and a lean body with no muscles at all. His face was extremely soft and gentle and his hair was a beautiful shade of grey. His eyes had a unique red hue around the irises with a blue color in the middle.


    He was the type of guy who gets targeted by older women. A hard bottom in every possible rtionship and what women consider as a ''tastymb'' to eat whole.


    Rin wouldn''t be surprised if he knew that this boy had a harem or was like the…


    ''Wait!'' His eyes widened in shock at the realization.


    ''Why did I forget the only soft-looking bastard of those 10? He''s the fucking protagonist!'' pping his forehead at his stupid mind.


    ''Now that I think about it. This scenario fits him perfectly. Face-pping a bunch of morons is indeed so protagonist-like. Sigh.''


    "Oi, you hear me?! Why are you silent, huh?!" The leader growled again angrily.


    However, the boy didn''t respond and merely ignored the bunch as if they didn''t exist at all. His attitude was weird and it quickly caught the attention of everyone. They couldn''t understand what he was thinking about.


    "Was he scared shitless?"


    "Most likely. He couldn''t even speak from fear."


    "Hahaha! This will be entertaining!"


    Such things could be heard everywhere around Rin. However, his mind had only thought of one thing.


    ''This is… the legendary face-p scene! Fuck, that''s so protagonist-like!'' He didn''t know whether tough or cry at this scene.


    Rin wasn''t a huge fan of the face-pping plot element as it is nothing but azy way for the story creator to make the main character look more dazzling than ever and to also hype up the consumer.


    ''Ah! Whatever, let''s just mind our business till Elise reaches this ce. Don''t look at them and treat them as if it was nothing but thin air.''


    "You little bastard, why are you silent?! Speak the fuck up!"


    However, thetter still didn''t move at all as if he was frozen in time. Rin was also starting to feel that something was eerily weird about this. Even if this was actually a face-pping scene, shouldn''t he start speaking at the very least?


    "You bastard!" Seemingly having enough of this weird boy, he grabbed him by the cor roughly and punched him violently in the face.


    ''Here ites…'' He closed his eyes, ready to hear the bullies scream in pain as the protagonist unleashes his great powers and beat them up senselessly.


    *Bang*


    ''Or not…''


    Instead of what he expected, the punch didnd right on the protagonist''s face drawing out blood from his nose. Then, without waiting, he punched him again and again and again. Each punch was strong enough to be heard from afar.


    The boy''s face was ruined with relentless punches. It was to the point where Rin thought that his face will never recover from that beating.


    ''Why is he not doing anything?! Is he dumb?'' Rin thought to himself.


    Even when he was getting beaten up, he didn''t try to resist or even protect his face. He just took the punches silently without making a sound.


    After that, the bully threw him on the ground and continued kicking him with his feet.


    "Oi, you fuckers also help me here. This dude is way better than any punching bag I ever punched, hahaha!"


    His friends joined the fray and they continued beating him up. The sound of hits echoed throughout the whole ce. Even those who were amused by it were now looking at the group with ufortable looks.


    ''Should I stop them? This is just really weird.''


    He wasn''t expecting any of this so he could only entertain the idea of helping the protagonist. But, he quickly shook those thoughts away and decided to follow with the n. He didn''t want to trouble Elise or potentially change whatever was intact of the plot to bepletely unrecognizable.


    But, even with that, it seemed that he had made a grave mistake of watching the fight for too long.<novelnext></novelnext>


    "What are you looking at, bastard!" One of them caught Rin looking at them.


    Thetter quickly averted his eyes and prayed in his head.


    ''Please, just ignore me. Please! I don''t want to beat the fuck out of you all and ruin the plot, please!'' Closing his eyes, begged pitifully.


    But, fate didn''t seem to be going to let him off the hook.


    "You fucker, I''m talking to you. Come here!" He shouted again as he signaled for him to get closer.


    The others also heard him and they stopped hitting the protagonist and instead focused on Rin as their next target. Looking at his clothes, they seemingly thought he was even more wealthy than the poor lump of beaten meat thrown on the ground.


    ''Sigh, why? Just why?'' He asked whoever was the culprit for this.


    "Are you his friend?" The group surrounded him and asked.


    "No?"


    "Liar! I could see that you wanted to stop us! You think what we did was wrong, huh?! Do you want to say that we are bad guys?!"


    Rin went silent for a few seconds, making the groupugh loudly as if they enjoyed this guy more than the other one since this one could speak.


    "Sigh…" Inhaling and then exhaling, Rin opened his mouth and said.


    "Listen. You four have two choices now." He made a peace sign with his hand in the middle of his words.


    "Either you just leave me alone and consider this as nothing but a stupid joke which I highly rmend you do. Or, we can go down the other road and end up with you guys either dead or paralyzed for life. I can also mentally scar you for life if that''s your kink."


    He said with a calm and eerily cold tone. Even if he didn''t want to ruin the plot, he ain''t going to tolerate anyone insulting him or even trying to step over him.


    ''This is not a game, fuckers! It''s the real fucking world.''


    "Huh?... Pffft, hahahahahhaha!!"


    The group erupted inughter at his words. Their amused looks as they caught their stomachs andughed loudly made the others shudder in fear of what they were about to do to Rin.


    "Even though he''s extremely good-looking. Sigh, what a waste he will ruin that face now."


    "True. I would''ve wanted to speak with him. But, I wish him all the luck."


    "I would still suck his… Ehem, nothing."


    The ones who were sad for Rin were mostly girls while most guys snickered happily to see this gorgeous boy turn into an ugly mess. They couldn''t tolerate someone as handsome as Rin stealing all the light from them.


    "Hahaha! What did you just say? You will paralyze us for life?! Hahahaha! You are a funny guy, I tell you."


    The leader then bent forward and whispered in Rin''s ear menacingly.


    "This ce isn''t your castle and you are not going to ask for your parents'' help, Mr. Noble. Wee to the academy."


    Anyone would''ve felt fear from this threat except Rin who only had one thought.


    ''You really want this? Fuck! I''m really sorry, Elise. It is what it is. I will try to keep them alive.'' He apologized to Elise in his head. He really didn''t want to do this but since he stumbled upon a bunch of scumbags itching for some beating, he couldn''t say no, could he?


    *Swish*


    Then, without hesitation, the leader tried to punch him in the face. The move was fast but for Rin, it looked as if the moron was moving in slow motion.


    Extending his head, he grabbed the fist with his left hand. Then, with he tightened his grip around it.


    "What?" The bully couldn''tprehend what happened.


    "I tried to warn you. Don''t me me for what is going to happen. Now, I will show you the way of a totally unimportant character."


    (A//N: He will show them Da way.)
