"Bullied, and yet the teacher didn't side with him—then maybe he should reflect on himself too!" one artificial esper suddenly said.
Bella immediately frowned. "That's victim-blaming. Why don't we start by questioning the character of the bullies and the teacher instead? Ridiculous—some people are bullied for no reason at all!"
Her face went cold. Even though she usually looked cute, she could be downright intimidating when she turned serious.
The artificial esper swallowed hard, dissatisfied yet unable to say another word.
But Bella didn't seem ready to let him off just yet.
"Bella." At that moment, Luis suddenly called out to her.
She looked slightly startled and gasped as if ready to say more, but in the end, she said nothing. Instead, she folded her arms and turned away, feigning a sulky pout.
By now, it was clear that the morale of the artificial espers had dropped considerably. At first, gaining power made them feel everything would fall easily into their grasp.
