My villain wants to save himself, but the yandere heroine disagrees

"It's okay!" Olivia said this with a smile, then waved to Orson and showed him two notes in her hand.

"Leave note. I asked for leave from Teacher Triss early this morning. Anyway, are you okay with the class this morning?"

"You actually managed to get a leave note from her?" Orson was also surprised when he heard Olivia say that.

Although Triss seems very approachable, she is very clear about asking for leave. Even a top student like Orson who has completed all the courses he needs to study has to go through layers of review before asking Tris for leave. He will only get the leave note after confirmation.

Of course, although Therese's process for granting leave is very strict, as long as you let her know that you really need leave, whether it is for half a month, a month, or even a semester, she will approve the leave as long as you come back to take the exam.

"Hehe, after all, I'm very powerful. There is nothing I can't do~" Olivia said.

In fact, Olivia implicitly expressed to Triss today that she wanted to spend a day alone with Orson to improve their relationship.

Therese naturally knew the gossip between the two, so she agreed with a sly smile. After all, both students were top students in the class, and taking a day off would not affect their grades. She was even happy to see the children in her class digest the gossip internally.

Triss then asked Olivia if she needed emotional counseling from a teacher.

Of course, it was impossible to count on Triss, an old single who had never been in a relationship for so long, so Olivia politely declined the proposal.

"Okay, then tell me, where are we going today?"

"Let me think..." Olivia thought for a moment, and then said, "How about the Imperial Library? That should be the place where I first met you. Although I don't know what it means to you, Orson, it is still quite memorable to me."

"Okay, let's go there." Orson thought about it and nodded.

I haven't visited the Imperial Library since I finished reading all the books there a few years ago, and I don't know if the library's collection has increased over the years.

Afterwards, the two of them completed the formalities for leaving the school and came to Saint Laurent City, which is also the largest library in the entire empire.

At the entrance of the library, a silver-haired girl wearing glasses was sitting at the front desk reading a book. When it got dark, she knew someone was coming, so she raised her head and smiled politely.

"Hello, both of you. Please show us your access cards."

Then, after seeing the person's face clearly, she was stunned for a moment.

"Um...are you Orson?"

"Uh, hello." Orson greeted the other party. "Miss Dorothy, after all these years, you still look the same as before."

"Orson, you look much more mature." The girl named Dorothy covered her mouth and looked at Orson with a nostalgic smile. "I remember that when I first saw you, Orson, you were probably only as tall as my waist. Now I can only look up at you."

Orson and Dorothy's first meeting was also in the Imperial Library, at least ten years ago.

Dorothy was still the same as she is now ten years ago. In these ten years, time has not left any traces on Dorothy's face.

"Little boy, why are you reading here alone? Where are your parents?" Ten years ago, when Orson first came to the Imperial Library to read, Dorothy was already the librarian.

Of course, such a large library could not have only one administrator. She only needed to be on duty at the front desk one day a week, and the rest of the time was free to do whatever she wanted. However, she also spent most of her time on reading.

When Orson heard what Dorothy said, he did not respond to her, but continued to read the book silently.

Dorothy sat next to Orson and looked at the list of books Orson was reading.

Unlike the fairy tales and legends that other children of his age liked to read, the book Orson was reading happened to be a novel that Dorothy liked very much.

This novel is full of the darkness of human nature. A series of behaviors such as breakup and betrayal centered around the struggle for power profoundly expose the darkest side of human nature.

But is it really okay for children of this age to read this kind of book?

Dorothy looked at Orson in front of her and asked again softly, "Well, although it is a bit rude to disturb you, little boy, what is your name?"

"... Orson." After a long while, the other party uttered two words. "Can you please stop bothering me, big sister?"

The child's tender voice reveals a sense of alienation that keeps people at a distance.

Dorothy suddenly felt like she had been struck, and an inexplicable desire to win began to burn within her.

She must become good friends with this iceberg-like child.

Then she said, "I also like the novel you are reading. Can you tell me why you read it?"

This way of chatting up Dorothy seemed a little too explicit, so Orson ignored her.

"Old Bronte never realized that her most capable child was actually her most neglected youngest daughter. What do you think about this?"

After saying this, Orson paused for a moment, and then he slowly said, "A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. My little girl gathered her strength, hid her wings, and waited for the right time to move, so she was able to succeed in the end."

"It seems that this is not the first time you have read this novel." Dorothy smiled when she heard Orson's words.

"Hello, my name is Dorothy, and I'm one of the administrators... of this library."

"Anyway, since you like reading this kind of books, I can become your book friend and discuss the contents of the book together."

"Orson." The other party replied coldly.

In the following years, Orson often came to the Imperial Library to read books, and often discussed the contents of some books with Dorothy, especially history and politics. Dorothy also knew Orson's identity.

At first, Dorothy thought that Orson read these books in order to inherit the family business. However, after occasionally talking to Orson about literary books, Dorothy realized that it was not that he did not understand literature and art, but that he knew too much about it, so there was no need for discussion.

Finally, Orson read almost all the books in the Imperial Library, and at Dorothy's suggestion, compiled a reading guide that became famous throughout the country.

It was after that that Orson never saw Dorothy again.

When they met today, Dorothy was sighing with emotion, and then she suddenly saw another girl standing next to Orson.

"Is this your girlfriend?"

Chapter 3: Shura Field (K)

"Uh...no." Orson shook his head.

Just as Dorothy breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Orson said, Orson suddenly continued, "It's the fiancée."

"Ah, that's good... Eh heh heh heh heh?!" Dorothy's eyes instantly showed a hint of shock, as if she could see her pupils trembling.

"Wait...wait a minute. Although I don't care much about gossip from the outside world, this is a bit too fast, isn't it?! You are less than 20 years old this year, right? Are you going to get married already?"

Looking at Dorothy who suddenly fell into panic, Olivia chuckled.

"Well, Miss Dorothy, this is a bit complicated to explain, but when I met you, I was actually already engaged."

"Is that so..." Dorothy felt inexplicably depressed after hearing this.

"Anyway, I'd like to ask, has the library had any new books in recent years?"

"There are indeed new books, but..." Dorothy thought for a moment, and then said, "For you, Orson, there may not be so many 'useful' books. After all, the books published in recent years are nothing more than those that have been thoroughly studied in terms of research direction. If you want to read them, they are in the fifth district."

"Okay." Orson nodded and took Olivia to the library.

Dorothy looked at their backs and pouted.

She thought that Orson hadn't come to see her for so many years and came here specifically to see her, but she didn't expect that he came here for a date with his fiancée.

For a moment Dorothy even wanted to run to Imperial College and sue Orson for skipping classes and going on a date.

But, I really miss it.

Ten years may be just a short period of time in her life, but for human beings, it can bring about such great changes.

Dorothy is not human, but her species is currently unknown.

She is not a witch or an elf. Her real race is the dragon clan, which has disappeared in the Western Continent for a long time and has not appeared for thousands of years.

Moreover, it is an extremely noble silver dragon among the dragon clan.

Before becoming the administrator of the Imperial Library, she had worked as a librarian elsewhere for a period of time.

Her goal is to read all the books in the library while witnessing the local customs and culture during her travels.

And for her, a member of the dragon clan, ten years is just a period of travel.

Relying on her knowledge, she settled down in the generally xenophobic Elf Kingdom and lived there for more than a hundred years.

After a hundred years, she had learned all the knowledge of the elves and left the elves. She then traveled to several human cities and finally settled down in Saint Laurent City.

During these ten years, apart from the boring reading day after day, the only thing that added color to her peaceful life was Orson, who also read silently.

……

On the other side, Orson and Olivia walked into the library. After Olivia was away from Dorothy, she turned around and looked at Orson.

"Orson, that sister just now looked so beautiful."

"Hehe, I looked like this ten years ago." Orson said this. His original intention was to let Olivia know that the other party's race was not simple, but Olivia misunderstood him.

"Ten years? Tsk, tsk, tsk, so she's playing the cultivation game?" Olivia keenly caught the time information in Orson's words, and then smiled and said; "Then I am considered to have intercepted her halfway?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Miss Dorothy and I are just book friends. She is a very knowledgeable person." After Orson said this, he suddenly remembered something and paused.

Noticing Orson's movements, Olivia turned her head and looked at Orson in confusion.

"What's wrong?"

"I suddenly remembered something." Orson said, shaking his head. "Forget it, let's talk about it later. Let's walk around for now. Olivia, what kind of books do you like?"

"Me? I usually like to read novels about chivalry." Olivia tapped her chin with her finger and then spoke. "After all, the intrigues among the nobles are already exhausting, so I must read some lighthearted books to relax."

"Well... in that case..." Orson thought so and took Olivia to the third area of ​​the library.

"There are quite a few similar books here in District 3. Olivia, do you want me to help you choose one, or do you want to read it yourself?"

"Hehe... Orson, help me choose~"

After hearing what Olivia said, Orson searched the bookshelf for a while and finally found a book.

"'Luke German Epic', you might like this one." Orson said as he handed the book to Olivia.

"Okay~" Olivia agreed, and then sat down with Orson at a desk by the window, and the two of them read a book together.

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but the position Olivia chose was not far from the entrance, and there was no one around, which was just the right angle for Dorothy to see the two people just by looking up.

Indeed, Dorothy was a little tired from reading. When she looked up and was about to look out the window to relax, she happened to see Orson and Olivia sitting not far away reading a book together.

The clinging of the two people made Dorothy, who had been single for who knows how many days, feel her scalp tingling, followed by an inexplicable feeling of irritability.

She lowered her head and continued reading the book, but after a few glances, she couldn't help but look up to watch the interaction between Orson and Olivia.

This way I can’t read books well.

But I can't go up and disturb the sweet interaction between the couple, otherwise Orson might be disgusted with me.

She didn't want to lose her few book friends.

So the morning passed like this, and Dorothy didn't even read in the end. Instead, she sat at the front desk with a cup of tea, watching the interaction between Orson and Olivia with an expressionless face.

Especially the scene where the two of them wanted to turn the pages of the book at the same time, and then their hands touched, and then quickly separated, and then smiled at each other, Dorothy couldn't help but tear up the books they were reading.

Finally, after finishing reading the short "Epic of Luke German", Orson saw that it was almost noon, so he prepared to take Olivia away.

"Have you finished reading?" Dorothy said expressionlessly as she watched the two people walking towards her.

"Uh...ah, yes." Seeing Dorothy like this, Orson nodded awkwardly. Although he didn't know what happened to her, he always felt that it had something to do with him.

"Then take your time. Come and chat with me when you have time." Dorothy said and waved to Orson.

"Well, Miss Dorothy, where do you live now?" At this moment, Orson suddenly asked.

"Huh? Why are you asking this?" Dorothy was stunned.

Olivia, who was standing by, heard what Orson said and quietly put her hands on Orson's waist.

"Mainly, I have something I want to ask you, Miss Dorothy."

"Okay, I live at No. 38 Shimian Street in the west of the city. When you come, let me know in advance and I'll prepare some food for you."

"That's not necessary. I just have some questions I'd like answered." Orson said this with a smile, then pulled Olivia out of the library.

As soon as he walked out of the library, Orson felt a pain in his waist.

Olivia finally couldn't help but take action.

"Is it okay to hook up with other girls in front of your fiancée? Is it okay? Is it okay? Is it okay?" Olivia said coquettishly.

The romantic atmosphere that had just been created while reading with Orson disappeared in an instant with Orson's actions.

"Ahem, Olivia, please listen to my explanation." Orson said, and explained: "Didn't I just say that Miss Dorothy is knowledgeable? It just so happens that I have encountered some problems recently and I want to find answers. I think Miss Dorothy should know the answer."

"Okay." Olivia accepted Orson's statement.

After all, Orson is a complete utilitarian. When he takes the initiative to find someone, it is definitely not because he thinks they are pretty and wants to chat them up, but he has other intentions.

Now Orson told Olivia the purpose of looking for the other party, and Olivia reluctantly accepted this statement.

"But..." Olivia's words were filled with worry. "Since it's a problem that even you, Orson, can you really solve it by asking others for help?"

After all, in her opinion, Orson's knowledge was ahead of most people in the empire. If even he found a problem difficult, then it was definitely not something that an ordinary person could solve.
