Her words silenced Link.

As she says, Villette's obsession with him is a self-imposed stranglehold because it means she needs to waste more energy in order to protect him.

This was especially true for Villette now.

"If I'm not mistaken, Villette is relying on you to have tons of credits right? Do you think Villette's title of number one in the school year would still sit obediently without you, who can withstand her massive crush, and the Academy seeing how weak she's become with the loss of one of her slaves?"

"Words are full of meaning, but if you can't even do the premise, it's just empty words."

Link slowly stood up and began to make fists with both hands.

"That's right, if I can't even turn you into a slave, anything after that is nothing more than a pipe dream."

She smirked at Link's readiness to resist and replied graciously.

"But do you think you can resist me?"

"If I sit back and wait, you'll leave me alone?"

Link was unmoved, only alert.
