==========
I double-checked everything in their stats, and to be honest, none of them are that impressive. Even her fiance is only at Level 8, while the principal is at Level 7. My chance of using suggestion had also increased prior to this meeting because of the amount of blackmail material I have. I would be an idiot if I failed to wrap this up. The principal, an old man in his late sixties, sits behind his desk. He glances at each of us, his eyes sharp and inquisitive.
"Now, let's hear each person's account of what happened," he says, his tone firm.
"Gye Yong, you may begin," the principal's voice broke the silence.
She cleared her throat, her eyes darting between the principal, her fiancé, and me. "He brutally attacked a student, and I have witnesses to back me up!" she exclaimed, pointing an accusing finger at me.
I leaned back in my chair, giving her a condescending smile. "Oh, how courageous of you! Gathering all your friends to gang up on the new guy. I'm touched, really. But you see, I brought something too." I pulled out my phone dramatically. "It's called evidence, sweetheart. You know, the kind that gets people in trouble?"

She glanced at the phone nervously, her bravado waning slightly. "Well, I—"
"And let's not forget, you're in the video too threatening me. It doesn't really paint you in the best light." I lied.

Her fiancé, who had been silent until now, leaned forward. "Listen, we can handle this quietly. No need to get the law or media involved. But you better not think you can threaten us and get away with it."
I leaned forward, my tone dripping with sarcasm. "Oh, don't get me wrong. I'm not threatening you. I'm just giving you a friendly piece of advice. You see, it's a tough world out there, and I wouldn't want you to make any mistakes you'd regret later."

He shot me an icy glare but chose to remain silent, clearly aware that I could use my evidence against them. The principal cleared his throat, trying to maintain some semblance of authority in his office.
"Mr. Zyn, let's be reasonable here. We can resolve this without escalating it further."
I gave a dismissive wave of my hand. "Of course, I'm always reasonable. But just remember, you started this little issue by defending that crazy bastard. I'm just following your lead."
Her fiancé clenched his jaw, clearly frustrated by my cocky attitude. "Fine, let's talk about how we can settle this." He added.
The atmosphere in the room thickened, and a cold silence enveloped us. The principal sighed heavily. "Look, we can sort this out amicably. Threatening each other won't lead us anywhere."
"Alright," I began, taking a deep breath, "Let's lay our cards on the table." I leaned forward, placing my hands on the desk. "You're worried about the reputation of the school. You," I pointed to Gye Yong , "are worried about your job, and probably this fellow's reputation too," I gestured to her fiancée.
The principal looked at me, squinting slightly, as if trying to gauge what I was up to. "Go on," he said cautiously.
"We can make a deal," I proposed. "I won't press charges or make this matter public, if the school ensures Alice is safe and not bullied or harassed."
"That's it?" The fiancée raised an eyebrow, looking both surprised and suspicious. "You want protection for a student? Not money or anything?"
"Yeah. I have my reasons."I shrugged, trying to act nonchalant. "Why should we trust you?"The teacher looked skeptical,
"Because I've got enough ability to destroy your reputation , which I'm sure would make for a great headline. 'School owner's nephew tries to choke female student and assaults teacher!' How's that for a scoop?"I smirked.
"And I already knew that you confiscated the students' cellphones and warned them not to post what happened. But I'm smart enough to have transferred everything to the cloud . So right now, I'm the only one who can make a ruckus." I added.

The atmosphere grew even tenser. The three of them exchanged glances. It was evident that the stakes were high, and they had to make a decision. It was a battle of wills, a game of bluff, and I was betting everything on this one play.
"Fine, we will ensure Alice's safety, and you won't press charges or go public with this." The principal finally sighed heavily.
"Good. Let's keep this matter under wraps. I don't want to see a repeat of this incident."I nodded, satisfied with the outcome. 'Idiots ,' I muttered to myself. Everything went smoothly, and I saw them lowering their guards down. Did they think I would let this end so easily? I have a system for God's sake. It would be an insult to my intelligence if I didn't do something big. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"By the way, in the future, I'm expecting each of you to grant me a favor that you won't reject for keeping my mouth shut.," I added with a sly grin.
