Tenya walked into the dormitory, a faint fragrance filled the room. He scanned the room and found it very tidy, with everything neatly arranged.
"Is that how you ask for help?" Tenya glanced at her.
"....."
Suzune gritted her teeth, then turned and walked into the kitchen. "Excuse , would black tea be alright?"
After so tinkering, she served a steaming cup of black tea.
"The tea leaves are quite ordinary. But seeing as Suzune brewed it herself, it barely passes." Tenya took a sip of tea and gave his honest evaluation.
"You've had your tea, now it's my turn to speak, isn't it?" Suzune got straight to the point.
"Alright, speak."
Tenya sat on the sofa, legs crossed, slowly sipping his black tea, a playful smile on his lips, his eyes fixed on Suzune.
"I want you to help , to make D Class win the class competition."
Suzune took a deep breath, her eyes incredibly serious.
"As expected. Calling here late at night just for such a trivial matter." Tenya chuckled lightly, looking unfazed.
"What do you an, trivial matter? Class competition is the most important thing at Advanced Nurturing High School." Suzune emphasized loudly.
"Heh heh."
"Even I, an outsider, know that D Class is the worst of the defective products. Why bother with such a futile struggle?" Tenya spoke frankly, with no intention of insulting her.
"....."
Suzune gritted her teeth. Being strong-willed, she simply couldn't accept the label of defective product. But reality was cruel. As a mber of D Class, she couldn't refute it.
"The class order can change with points. In the first sester, we even briefly advanced to Class C." Suzune tried to show that they still had hope.
"Alright, let's say you're right. Then the question is, why should I help you?"
"Especially as an outsider."
Tenya spread his hands, looking as if it had nothing to do with him.
"You're quite close with the girls in our class, aren't you?" Suzune changed the subject.
He had just been on a date with Airi and Haruka during the day, so she decided to play the emotional card.
"That's true. But I'm also very close with the girls from A, B, and C Classes." Tenya blinked, looking serious.
"Scum!"
"Thank you."
"....."
Suzune's lips twitched. Against soone with a thicker skin than a city wall, any moral criticism was aningless.
"Although it sounds a bit strange, D Class should have the most beautiful girls, right?"
This is getting interesting.
"Are you saying you're cute?"
Tenya suddenly recalled a certain cool, long-haired girl from Sobu High School, though the only difference from the person in front of him was several levels of height.
"Rather than cute, I'd prefer to be called an ice beauty." Suzune said matter-of-factly.
"Pfft..."
"Such similar narcissism."
Tenya couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Th-This kind of thing isn't important at all."
Suzune reached up and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, trying to hide her slightly flushed cheeks.
Hmm. More easily embarrassed than Yukino.
"Regarding D Class having many beautiful girls, I'll say you're right. So, what then?" Tenya nodded, his gaze scanning her up and down with interest.
"Wh-What then?"
Suzune's eyes darted away. She seed to have vaguely guessed his implication, but she pretended not to understand.
"Playing dumb won't work. Suzune, what price are you willing to pay?" Tenya stated bluntly, without concealnt.
"Price..."
Suzune's eyes blurred as she recalled her brother's stern and cold gaze. Her resolve instantly beca firr.
"No matter what, I must advance to A Class. For that, I'm willing to pay any price." Suzune vowed confidently.
"Heh heh. That's a very good resolve."
Tenya smiled faintly, then stood up and walked over to Suzune, looking down at her.
"Wh-What are you going to do?"
Suzune's expression changed slightly, her eyes filled with wavering and panic.
"Suzune, you're smart, why ask when you already know?"
Tenya didn't press aggressively. Instead, he returned the initiative to Suzune.
"You..."
"Is that all you ever think about?"
Suzune's face flushed.
"It's hard to control, isn't it normal? I'm a sensitive man." Tenya didn't deny it.
"But..."
"Can't you wait? I'm not ntally prepared yet."
Suzune thought about trying to muddle through for now, and deal with the rest later.
"Then there's nothing to talk about." Tenya turned and left without hesitation.
"Huh?"
Suzune was stunned.
"Suzune, you seem to have misunderstood the situation. You are the one who has a desire for now, not the other way around."
"By the way, Arisu of A Class, Ichinose of B Class, and Mio of C Class have all paid the full price."
Tenya's last sentence was a deadly blow.
"Th-They actually already..."
Suzune was clearly shocked, and her heart was even more conflicted.
"So, choose. Will you grasp the future or give up?" Tenya issued his final ultimatum.
"I..."
"I will grasp the future!"
After a brief internal struggle, Suzune finally made her decision.
After the deed was done.
"Suzune, I have agreed to your request." Tenya packed his belongings.
"What request?"
Suzune's eyes were hazy, her mind a blank, completely forgetting their previous agreent.
"Haha. It seems you are forgetful. But it doesn't matter, let's talk about it when you rember."
After eating and drinking his fill, Tenya got up and left Suzune's dorm.
"...."
After a long silence, Suzune finally let out a cry of surprise.
"I actually…"
"I paid such a price, was it really worth it?"
Suzune sighed, a look of confusion on her face.
Just outside the student dorms, Tenya was blocked by soone.
"Tenya."
At the main entrance stood a female teacher in a professional OL suit, with a cold expression.
"Oh, isn't this Chabashira-sensei? Are you waiting for soone?" Tenya greeted her with a smile.
"You are truly leisurely. This school is not a place where outsiders can just casually enter." Sae's eyes were sharp.
"I didn't just casually enter." Tenya said.
"Regarding the entry thod, I won't ask for now. The school's security will definitely be strengthened. Now, I want to know, what is your purpose for entering this school?" Sae asked in a deep voice.
"Visiting my girlfriends." Tenya told the truth.
"Girlfriends?" Sae's expression froze.
"I rember Chabashira-sensei is a japanese teacher, right? There shouldn't be any problem with comprehension." Tenya teased.
"I'm sorry, your word choice is rather niche, I couldn't react imdiately."
Sae took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to complain, but her gaze towards Tenya beca even colder.
"Haha. It's good that Chabashira-sensei understands."
Tenya changed the subject, then seriously scrutinized Sae for a mont, unable to help but nod.
"What?"
"You brat, how dare you comnt on your teacher?" Sae raised an eyebrow.
"Hmm. You are a pure good girl." Tenya saw through her at a glance.
Cold and beautiful on the outside, yet unexpectedly naive on the inside, and at the age of almost thirty, she was still a virgin, rare in this world.
"…Girl?!"
Sae's eyes widened at the words, as if she had heard such a term for the first ti.
However, she was a woman with so experience after all, so she naturally understood the implicit aning, and her expression couldn't help but change.
"How did you see that? That's too rude!" Sae pretended not to care, but her ears were burning.
She thought to herself, 'Damn it! To be seen through by a student, so embarrassing.'
Tenya saw through her thoughts and imdiately laughed, "Chabashira-sensei doesn't need to be shy. Although girls like you are rare these days, they're not nonexistent, for example, the forr Hiratsuka-sensei."
