"Huh?"
"That sound... It's coming from auntie's room?"
Mai's expression froze, then she instinctively stepped forward and pressed her ear against the door to listen.
"Mmm!!"
"That, that is…!"
Mai's cheeks imdiately flushed crimson. However, she then rembered that she hadn't heard of Kiyomi's husband living here.
So, who was in the room?
Out of curiosity, she reached for the doorknob and found it wouldn't turn. But in the next second, the door was opened from the inside. Mai felt as if she had seen a new world.
...
"Good morning, Tenya-kun. You look especially radiant today."
gumi thoughtfully observed Tenya's face, then her keen eyes noticed so faint tooth marks visible inside his collar. She imdiately confird her suspicions.
"Mom is sleeping in again? That's strange. Ever since we moved into Tenya-kun's house, mom always sleeps especially soundly." Haruno looked suspicious.
"..."
Yukino, on the other hand, directed a sharp gaze directly at Tenya. Although she had no evidence, her intuition told her that this matter was related to Tenya.
"By the way, I wonder how Sakurajima-senpai slept last night?" gumi asked curiously.
"..."
Mai had large dark circles under her eyes. Her mind had been greatly shocked last night, causing her to be sleepless all night.
"Sakurajima-senpai slept very well last night." Tenya lied through his teeth.
"It seems Sakurajima-senpai couldn't sleep last night." gumi nodded.
"gumi, you're not trusting ." Tenya pounded the table.
"Tenya-kun, I just understand you too well." gumi watched him silently.
"What riddle are you two speaking?" Yukino looked confused.
"I feel like Tenya-kun is doing sothing bad again, right?" Haruno's eyes darted, and she imdiately thought of the invisible Mai.
Anyway, ghosts can't make a sound.
"It wasn't .It was your mother." Mai wanted to expose it loudly.
However, the sisters remained in the dark.
Tenya gave her a aningful look, as if saying, "You can scream your lungs out, no one will hear you."
A terrifying man.
Mai couldn't help but retreat a few steps, instinctively wanting to escape from there. But then she thought that if she left Tenya, no one in the world would be able to see her again, and she hesitated.
School ti.
"Good morning, Yoshida-san."
"Yoshida-san is as handso as ever today."
"Yoshida-san just smiled at , eek."
Along the way, Tenya encountered many infatuated girls fawning over him. However, this was an everyday occurrence, and he had long been accustod to it.
"I have to say, humans are creatures who judge by appearance." Yukino said with a cold face.
"You're right, that's why I have gumi and Yukino by my side." Tenya replied as a matter of course.
"It's far more than that, isn't it?" gumi tilted her head slightly.
"Tch. Scumbag!"
Mai initially thought that Tenya and gumi were a true love couple, but she never expected that he was a complete scumbag.
"Don't mind these details." Tenya smiled indifferently, not denying it.
Class start.
Class dismissed.
Campus life was peaceful.
However, Mai's mood gradually beca anxious because everything here bore no trace of her existence. Even in the school's student registration system, there was no record of her. It was as if she had never attended Sobu High School.
"How could this be…?"
"I clearly lived in this school for over two years, so why is there no trace left?"
Mai cried bitterly, leaning on the railing on the rooftop, her heart as dead as ashes, she even had an urge to jump down from there.
"Presence is a controllable variable. Since your presence can be taken away, it can also be taken back." Tenya's figure appeared behind her at so unknown ti.
"What should I do?!" Mai asked instinctively, her emotions agitated.
"Let put it this way, Sakurajima-senpai. Let ask you a question. If you were an unremarkable student in school, how could you make a na for yourself and beco a well-known figure?" Tenya asked in return.
"An unremarkable student, wanting to make a na for themselves? Like getting first place in studies?" Mai asked tentatively.
"That is indeed a thod, but it should be useless for Sakurajima-senpai." Tenya shook his head.
"Why?" Mai expressed her confusion.
"Because Sakurajima-senpai's usual academic performance isn't bad, is it? For an honor student to get first place, everyone would just find it reasonable and it wouldn't attract too much attention." Tenya explained.
"So that's how it is. Then, what exactly should I do? Yoshida-kun, please teach !"
"Please!!"
Mai looked at him with a pleading expression.
Facing Mai's earnest plea, Tenya finally revealed his thod.
"You, what did you say?! You want to confess to you in public? Yoshida-kun, this is a matter of my life and death, please don't joke around like this."
After hearing Tenya's thod, Mai was utterly stunned, imdiately thinking he was playing a trick on her.
"No, Sakurajima-senpai. I'm serious. This is also the only way for you to regain your presence." Tenya was serious.
"What do you an by that?" Mai crossed her arms over her puffed-up chest, her eyes full of suspicion.
"The principle is very simple. If you are an inconspicuous transparent person in the class, how can you imdiately gain everyone's attention?"
"The answer is simple. Connfess to the most prominent and popular person in the class."
Tenya's explanation was well-reasoned.
"This…"
Mai was speechless for a mont.
"Sakurajima-senpai, is there anything difficult about this? Isn't it perfectly normal for a girl to confess to a handso guy?"
Tenya spread his hands, looking as if it was the most natural thing.
"…"
Mai was speechless, her gaze fixed on Tenya's face.
With sharp eyebrows, starry eyes, and well-defined features, she had to admit he had a super handso face.
However…
Thinking of Tenya's barbaric actions towards Kiyomi last night, Mai found it hard to look at him directly.
"I've already told you the specific thod. As for whether to do it, that's your choice. After all, I don't like to force people."
After speaking, Tenya turned and left indifferently. When coaxing won, one cannot always indulge them. One must keep them on edge.
Looking at Tenya's retreating back without a trace of lingering, Mai bit her lips tightly, her face filled with a conflicted expression. But compared to the loneliness of losing her presence, all these costs were within an acceptable range.
Lunch break.
Tenya specifically went to the office. He had a long-awaited conversation with Shizuka.
Two hours later…
Tenya tidied his clothes and left the office feeling refreshed.
Back in the classroom.
"What happened?"
Tenya saw several girls gathered around his seat, chattering endlessly.
"Tenya-kun. You're finally here. Look at this."
Yui pointed to a letter with a red heart drawn on it on the desk, which imdiately attracted everyone's attention.
"This is clearly a love letter. Tenya-kun's charm is really sothing." Yumiko sighed helplessly.
"Be careful, this might be a magic book with a curse spell." Rikka's eyes were full of vigilance.
"Strange, how did I not notice anyone approaching Tenya's seat?" Rukia rested her palm on her chin, looking surprised.
Tenya's eyes flickered, and he instantly understood what was going on. Since the other party had taken the first step, he naturally wouldn't refuse.
