The Villainous Me Turned the Losers into Blackened Bosses-Chapter 105 - Congratulations on Graduation (Part 2)

“Young Master—”

When Will realized he had lost his footing, he didn’t panic.

Not because he was confident he could spin mid-air and land gracefully.

But because…

He was confident that any injuries from this height could be healed by himself!

Over the years, Will had secretly dedicated himself to learning priest skills, reasoning that if he ended up as a support character, he might as well excel at it. He even frequented the church to immerse himself in the priestly atmosphere.

He hadn’t told anyone about this, mostly because… being a healer and support was surprisingly straightforward!

He didn’t even need to consult “S” about it.

It was like designing a support character in a game—calculate the numbers, add a few restrictions, and as long as you don’t trip over your own mechanics, it’s good to go.

However…

The moment he heard a reassuring “Young Master,” all those concerns vanished.

He closed his eyes.

When he opened them again…

The first thing he saw was Eir’s twitching wolf ears, which had a leaf stuck to them. She shook it off, and it landed on his chest.

Next, he noticed Eir’s collar—no, the smile on her face that curved into a “w.”

Eir was holding him securely in a princess carry.

—Because graduation day was an open campus event, Eir had been allowed inside, leading to this scene.

“Thank goodness, Young Master is unharmed.”

“Don’t worry…”

“If anyone dares hurt the Young Master, Eir will… kill them all.”

Eir’s confident smile widened.

“Uh… I just slipped and fell on my own.”

“Then I’ll kill… wait, what? Huh? Huhhh?”

Will could already feel the strange looks from the people around them.

Of course.

A grown man being princess-carried by a wolf-eared maid wearing a collar was bound to attract attention!

“Alright, alright, thank you, Eir. Put me down now.”

“Sorry, did I say the wrong thing again?”

Eir apologized as she gently set Will down, lightly tapping her head.

“A little, but the fact that you said it at all deserves full marks!”

Once Eir put him down, she realized the classmates had been staring at her for a while.

She didn’t seem flustered at all.

She adjusted her maid skirt, stepped back with her right foot, and bowed gracefully in a textbook-perfect posture.

“My apologies for the disturbance. I am Eir, the Young Master’s maid. Thank you all for taking care of him these past three years.”

“Ohhh—”

“She’s pretty cute, huh?”

“Come to think of it, I’ve seen her around a lot!”

“So she’s the beastmaid who waits at the gate every afternoon after school?”

…

Will was equally surprised.

Maybe… just maybe, the “Eir” from the original story had been so timid that he subconsciously thought the current Eir was also a shy little introvert.

But…

“How was that, Young Master? Did Eir do well? This is part of the Hysterm family’s maid training—how to ensure the master’s reputation remains untarnished in public. I practiced this scenario many times in my head.”

“Oh, by the way, I’ve already packed everything at home. Just let me know when you’re ready, and we can head to Novice Town right away!”

Eir stood tall, her tail wagging happily, her ears twitching with pride. She looked like a pet seeking praise, especially with her new orange collar that matched her hair and gleamed in the sunlight.

—She truly was a bright and cheerful big dog!

But…

Will was very satisfied with her progress.

As the character furthest from “blackening” in the original story, Eir could now casually say dark, edgy lines without a hint of awkwardness!

Even if the context was a bit odd, it showed that the subtle influence had seeped into her very bones!

The 300 Questions of Blackening hadn’t been written in vain!

More importantly, while Eir wasn’t the brightest, her diligence and obedience made up for it. Like a student grinding through practice problems, she had internalized the material to the point of instinctively choosing the correct answers.

Her mastery of The 300 Questions of Blackening had far surpassed Will, the author.

For example—

“Eir, recite the answer to Question 263 backward. If he breaks his promise and abandons you, what should you do?”

“Make him regret, break his will, and then… destroy him completely.”

See!

She even recited it backward perfectly!

How could Will not be satisfied when she had reached this level?

“Hmm, I think I missed a ‘destroy’ somewhere. Let me try again.”

Eir counted on her fingers, seriously reviewing her performance.

“No need, no need. Even I didn’t notice you missed a word. You’ve already surpassed me!”

“R-really?”

As Will chatted with Eir, Leah, who had retreated to the shade of a tree—perhaps unaccustomed to being without her large hat—waved at them from afar:

“Hey, you two, stop chatting there. Aren’t you getting sunburned? Will, we need to discuss your adventurer team plans. I have some suggestions.”

“Will-sensei, it’s time to tell me what a dungeon adventurer team truly needs—”

Treya, who had been watching from the side, walked straight over, grabbed Will’s arm, and pulled him along.

“Uh… shouldn’t I get at least two days to rest after graduation…?”

“Don’t touch the Young Master so casually. And… wait, are you guys the teammates?”

“Yes.”

Treya nodded.

“Mm-hmm, what? Got a problem with that?”

Leah crossed her arms.

Unexpectedly, Eir’s expression turned emotional, her eyes welling up with tears.

“E-Eir… what’s wrong?”

“I never thought the Young Master would choose such normal teammates.”

“Uh…”

Will glanced at Leah, who was technically ten times her apparent age, and Treya, a princess blessed by a demon…

“Normal” wasn’t exactly the word he’d use.

“I thought the teammates would be a baby dragon, an ice queen, or a ghost girl—because the Young Master mutters about those every night.”

“Well… compared to that, I guess this is pretty normal.”

Will scratched his head.

Come to think of it, in the original story, after Hugh’s betrayal, the protagonist ended up treating dungeon creatures as his teammates. In that sense… Will wasn’t exactly a “normal” person either.

Still…

He couldn’t exactly call himself “normal.” While the original story didn’t describe him that way, readers often referred to him as a “chaotic protagonist”—mainly because he always made cold, calculated decisions that led to terrifyingly reckless actions.

Will tried to suppress thoughts of Hugh.

Because whenever he thought of him, he started mentally counting down to the day Hugh would join his team—then to the day Hugh would leave, and finally to the day Will would be killed by a slime.

“Will, your face is so pale. Are you scared by the thought of forming an adventurer team?”

Leah was the first to notice Will’s stiff expression and leaned closer.

“Do you need me to find someone to check on you?”

“Let Eir take a look…”

But…

Seeing how these three teammates had grown both physically and mentally!

Will felt confident again!

“I’m perfectly fine! Let’s set off as soon as possible—I can’t wait any longer!”
