Game Reincarnation: Reborn as the Strongest Villain-Chapter 110 Trouble brewing.
Chapter 110: 110 Trouble brewing.
They entered the room, which was ethereal and filled with the scent of aged paper that soothed a reader’s heart. A spiral staircase stood in the middle, which would guide them toward the floor above.
A row of bookshelves lines up orderly, with a rustle of flipped pages. A girl with long brown hair braided down her back sat calmly. Her round, black framed glasses reflected her subtle change in expression when reading.
She sat on the counter, near the entrance. But it seemed she was unaware that someone had entered the room.
No other soul was beside her, and Jin calmly approached her table.
"Excuse me?". Jin said, lightly tapping the table to gain her attention.
However, the girl’s attention was kept directed toward the book. Jin gradually raised the force in his finger, tapping the table, but no result came in.
"Excuse me, Senior!".
Lucya slipped past next to him and touched the girl with glasses, making her body jolt like a frightened cat.
"Eh? A customer, no, a student?".
The senior blinked several times, her large green eyes that hid behind those rounded glasses, combined with her blunt bang, suppressed her charm to a minimum degree.
But at least her assets were prominent, as it was kept jiggling as the senior flustered in response.
Jin’s emerald eyes flashed and unknowingly followed the motion as if an invisible force was drawing them.
’What is this? Something feels strange’. Jin gulped his saliva, then a memory resurfaced, bringing a gentle revelation before disappearing into the deep fog.
’What was that? I almost remembered something important’. The boy shook his head. ’Nope, maybe my misunderstanding’.
"Where are you looking?". Lucya’s low tone sent a palpable chill down his throat.
Jin faked a cough and slightly turned to his side with a raised palm. "I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to do that".
"Hmph, what’s so good about being big? I’d say, medium was premium". Lucya brushed her golden hair, exuding confidence as usual.
"Um, what are you talking about?".
The senior tilted her head in wonder. She alternated her gaze between the two juniors bickering like a couple.
"No, don’t mind it. I came here to borrow some books. Is that possible?". Jin asked, his body flinched by a sudden pain that crushed his feet toes.
"May I see your student card first?".
After hearing what the senior had said, Jin took out his student ID from the Item Box. Lucya, who was fuming with puffed cheeks. She took her ID from her storage item in the form of a silver bracelet.
The student ID was given to him when he came to the academy to see his entrance exam results.
Not only a student ID, Jin was also given three pairs of uniforms, including a jersey for a practical activity and some items for personal use.
The senior pushed her black-rimmed glasses and scanned the card meticulously before turning her attention to him.
"So you guys are freshmen".
"Yes".
Jin and Lucya replied simultaneously, prompting the senior’s lips to loosen.
"You can borrow some, but let me brief you first about the rules in the library".
The two nodded and began to listen to the set of rules that had been established within the room. They listened intently, sometimes raising a hand to ask if anything confused them.
"Have you guys understood?". freewebnoveℓ.com
"Yes, thank you very much, Senior". Lucya replied, her eyes shining and brimming with gratitude.
Jin nodded and carved those rules deep in his heart. Thanks to his superior brain, he could effortlessly remember everything within a single explanation, like the time in the guild.
"I forgot to introduce my name". The senior pushed her glasses and opened her lips. "My name is Diona, your senior".
’Diona!?’. Jin choked on his breath; never in his wildest dreams would he meet the third heroine within Allen’s harem. ’She was the heroine after all. No wonder I feel something clicked earlier’.
Diona stood up, adjusting her glasses with a gentle smile plastered on her face. "What was the book you guys are going to borrow?".

After separating from Jin’s group, Silvia’s group was led by Iris, who walked beside her, holding a tiny guidebook.
They passed several hallways and turned before arriving at the bustling room, filled with laughter and the clattering noise of utensils.
A delicious fragrance of mixed spices gently caressed their nose with a gentle twitch.
It was a spacious place, teeming with students who buzzed around, enjoying their lunch times with friends and close ones.
Silvia watched as a line formed in front of an open counter. Above it, she could see a billboard of menus with various foods around the continents.
The group advanced and waited on the back line, their hearts pounding with slight anticipation, thinking of what kind of food they would order.
"They have many menus, what should I pick?". Iris rubbed her chin, her brows knitted together in deep thought. "How about you, Silvia?".
"Hmm,". Silvia’s eyes narrowed, and she read the menu one by one until her eyes widened in shock. "Steak, maybe? How about you two?".
"Eh? Um, I want the same". Lily turned her back, watching Allen, who furrowed his brows.
"Hmm, I think I will choose beef stew with bread".
"Allen, you need to eat more meat to grow".
The pink-haired girl began to reprimand the boy who always acts so reserved in front of others.
Silvia and Iris stood still and watched the thing happen. Their facial expression loosened in faint joy, as their eyes flickered with envy for the absence of their half.
The group was oblivious, but several students who watched them stopped their activity and glanced at their side. Their jaws dropped to the ground.
Whether it’s Silvia, Iris, or Lily, they all have a beauty that surpasses the charts. The laughter stopped as more students focused entirely on the group, but the group itself was indifferent.
After waiting for a minute, they finally met face to face with a chubby woman who greeted them with a spirited voice.
"Good day, have you decided on the menu?".
"Three steaks and one beef stew". Iris raised a hand.
"Alright, wait a minute, what portion do you want? We have small, medium, and large?".
Silvia and Iris exchanged glances and then nodded in sync. "Medium, please".
The chubby woman turned to Lily, who shook her head sideways, "Small steak for me and a large portion of beef stew for him".
"Eh, Lily!?". Allen jolted, his eyes widened in shock.
"Alright, please wait for a moment". The chubby woman disappears to the back, shouting the menu that has been requested.
Another minute passed, and she returned pushing a silver trolley with several plates. She placed the order one by one, from the steak to the beef stew.
"Thank you".
Silvia and Iris’ voices overlapped as they saw the sizzling brown meat. Its caramelized skin looks crisp, and the smell made their stomach let out a small protest.
"Thank you, Mrs". Lily took her portion of food and pushed the large bowl of beef stew toward Allen, who gulped upon seeing it.
"Enjoy your lunch". The woman said with a smile, watching the group wander to search for an empty table.
Silvia and Iris, who walked in front, looked around until they found an empty spot in the corner. A bright sunlight spilled through the glass of the cafeteria window, painting the long wooden table in gold.
They took a seat together with Silvia and Iris. Opposite them, Lily and Allen flopped on the seat, placing their food on the table.
Iris glanced at the group and said. "Let’s eat".
With that as a cue, they raised their utensils and ate the food calmly to savour the taste.
The laughter in the place was gone, as the group huddled in the corner, focused on their food.
The clattering sound of utensils, mixed with a blissful hum of joy, enveloped their presence in a single cage of happiness.
They kept moving their hands and mouths until the food on their plate was gone in a blink.
Silvia and Iris wiped their lips with their thumbs. As for Lily, she clasped her hands together in deep prayer, leaving Allen, whose expression turned blue while patting his bloated belly.
"That was delicious".
Iris turned to her side, but her expression soon twisted into a deep frown. She watched as an unfamiliar boy with his lackey behind approached their tables.
"Hoo, what do we have here? Mind if I ask for your names, ladies?".
