The SSS-rank Guide Doesn't Need Saving novel Chapter 70

Chapter 70: Prelude to Annulment Ceremony (1)

The students couldn’t do anything now that Zeke had already stepped in. They still whispered among themselves and cast sideways glances at Aisha whenever they passed by her, but none of them dared to pull out their terminals to record her anymore.

Perrie, who had been the loudest of the group moments ago, quickly smoothed her expression into something gentler. She couldn’t say anything with a professor standing right there watching them.

"Aisha," she said, tilting her head with a small smile. "We should catch up sometime. Just the two of us, maybe after classes end for the day?"

Aisha didn’t answer. She looked at the girl for a long second before turning to leave.

Perrie wasn’t offended by her lack of response. That was just how Aisha usually acted, so cold and reserved.

Ever since Aisha’s accident happened and she was hospitalized, no one from Aisha’s old circle wanted anything to do with her. They were very quick about it as they scattered to surround other Queen Bees in the academy so they could get to their side and join their circle. And recently, Irene was the most ideal girl for them to stand with.

With Irene’s rank as an S-ranked Guide, her wealthy family backing her, and even the three great powerhouses on the planet eyeing her, they absolutely couldn’t waste a chance to get connected with her.

And ever since the engagement annulment had spread across the academy, those who still had thoughts of taking advantage of Aisha using her engagement with the prince were disappointed.

Perrie had also heard all sorts of things about Class 7-D too, how it was full of nobodies, students who’d been pushed aside because they weren’t worth anyone’s time. To think Aisha would be demoted there? Was it coincidence or maybe fate?

A person like Aisha Novalis, who had once looked down on everyone because she was the prince’s fiancee and the top academic student, would never lower herself to actually befriend people from that class. That could only mean that Aisha is now alone.

Perrie could already picture it. She’d get close to Aisha, coax her into meeting outside academy grounds where no professors were watching, and then quietly record everything. A disgraced former fiancée of the prince, caught saying something scandalous or acting inappropriately. It was the kind of footage that would spread across the GaiaNet Forum within hours.

She imagined the comments piling up, taking her post to the top and earning a lot of star credits from it!

Maybe even a talent scout from the entertainment sector would notice her and ask her to sign a contract with them. Then, she’ll become the most popular star celebrity on the planet? Wait... maybe not just in Gaia, but in the entire galaxy!

Her eyes quickly sparkled as she had already thought of what to do when she became a big celebrity.

Then she left with a satisfied little bounce in her step and hurried off to share the news with her friends, the same girls who used to trail after Aisha back when she was still engaged to Prince Soren.

[Perrie]: Guess what? Who I’m meeting up with later outside academy grounds!!

[CC]: Who?

[Perrie]: She’s someone you all should know. wink, wink~

[Abi:] Wait, no way... Is it Aisha?

[CC]: What?

[Usa]: Tell me the exact location! I’ll hide somewhere and livestream it! I’ve always wanted to see her know her own place!

Meanwhile, Aisha said nothing because she had nothing to say to someone like that.

She’d only interacted with a handful of people since arriving in this world. Her classmates. A few professors. Her family. A few strangers she had crossed paths with once and never spoke to again. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
