Horeo shrugged his shoulders and looked away.
"Go ahead, tell him - then I will tell him that you activated not even one but three Air Emperors."
"!!!!!"
The gold-haired first prince ntioned offhandedly causing Miriette to beco slightly pale.
"Teo told you!?"
She gasped, staring daggers into her fiance.
"Please, give more credit to my intelligence – I don't need to be told sothing so obvious."
Horeo laughed and patted Miriette's head with a patronizing smirk plastered all over his face.
"You had a cold for three days straight right after Zoemi got hurt? You didn't visit him at all? Idiots like you don't catch colds! You being exhausted to that extent would only be possible if you were suffering from severe mana depletion and couldn't move! Plus, you just confird my suspicion by getting angry, my love – you are far too obvious."
The gold-haired prince declared without even blinking,
"...stupid... pissy prince...!"
Miriette blushed and pouted.
"I let my guard down because it's only you!"
She scoffed and declared in a defensive tone.
"That's not good then. You must work on your act or I will change your nickna from the cunning fox to the na?ve kitten. Or just straight-up steal Zoemi from you~"
Horeo grinned at agitated Miriette.
"Hmph! In your dreams!"
But in response to that, the dark-haired girl proudly raised her head and looked straight ahead not even sparing the first prince a glance.
"Does that an that we will keep each other secrets?"
The gold-haired prince leaned down and asked with a soft smile who everyone else saw as charming but for the dark-haired girl, it seed just as mocking as it was annoying – in short – extrely.
"...fine... stupid prince..."
Miriette ended up giving up, pouting her lips while sulking.
But even when they were arguing like that, for the average passerby they looked like a perfect couple, head over heels in love with each other.
Soon the two of them arrived at the Academy's entrance - there were students passing by just like always, no one was even looking at the noticeboard which could only an that the announcent hasn't been posted yet.
"You made sure that this little scum will be dealt with properly, right, my prince? Zoemi almost died, if the punishnt will turn out to be sothing like a month's detention I will get mad."
"I did my part."
Miriette finally spoke again and Horeo nodded with a serious expression.
"My love, don't worry. It will be satisfactory..."
He added with a grim smirk but then he suddenly perked up and his face lighted up with an actual smile.
"Hey, look! It's Zoemi!"
Horeo motioned with his chin towards the entrance that the black-haired attendant was going through accompanied by his father.
"Right on ti."
Miriette glanced at Zoemi and turn away blushing – moving with perfect timing to see the young blue-haired female teacher heading to the noticeboard.
Teacher Perserios had a strict expression on her face and was marching ahead with so sort of docunt in her hand.
"..."
Without looking around she got to the board, created an ice staircase so that she wouldn't have a need to climb on her tiptoes, and hung up the docunt.
"Hmph!"
She scoffed, making sure that she hung the paper straight, and took a step back – with her feet back on the floor she looked up at the announcent to double-check if it was positioned correctly and nodded to herself satisfied.
"..."
Then she turned around to return and she noticed the father-son pair.
"!!!!
...and her serious expression crumbled and she blushed the mont she laid her eyes on the pale-blue-haired knight.
She instantly straightened her back even more and nervously fixed her hair, even though there was nothing wrong with it, and she walked towards the two without hesitation.
"Eh...? Am... am I missing sothing? Does teacher Perserios like Zoemi too!?"
"...huh, seriously...?"
Miriette beca jealous instantly but Horeo just sighed and patted her shoulder while shaking his head in disbelief.
"That's why you get for laying in bed three days straight reading those perverted books and doing who knows what else – your brain turned into mush - she's not blushing for Zoemi."
The first prince explained pointing out the obvious detail that the dark-haired girl missed.
"Oh...? Ooooohhhhh!"
At first, Miriette frowned but then she noticed it too – although everyone else was staring at the healed-up Zoemi, teacher Rokiana didn't even flinch because she was locked on onto the black-haired boy's father.
"Well... good luck to her! A couple of maids in my house have tried to seduce Mizoe more than just a couple of tis but he's just too oblivious to any kind of romance – he's even worse than Zoemi!"
She shrugged her shoulders, losing any interest – and negative emotions – that she had towards the blue-haired woman.
"Wasn't that because Zoemi didn't like any of them and never tried to support their endeavors?"
Horeo giggled and asked in amusent.
"Can't bla him there - they are all dumb wenches only thinking about getting married rich, not worth anyone's ti - why are we even talking about that? It makes rember that one ti where I caught my stupid dad together with..."
"Just look at them."
The gold-haired prince stopped the dark-haired girl from finishing her complaint and pointed at the trio.
------
"!!!"
"...?"
Zoemi was supported by his father even though he could walk by himself just fine, so he could feel Mizoe suddenly tensing up.
The black-haired attendant looked at his father and saw that the pale-blue-haired knight's face is flushed and he keeps on glancing at sothing.
So, the black-haired boy followed his father's line of sight and saw the teacher Rokiana beelining towards them right through the groups of students as if she was so miniature blushing icebreaker.
|Even if the punishnt for the Surou would end up la, it was so worth coming here...!|
Zoemi trembled from excitent looking between Mizoe and Rokiana.
"H-hello, senior! Ah! And hello, student Zoemi! It's so nice to see you both!"
Rokiana greeted them smiling bashfully and hid her hands behind her back while only looking at the pale-blue-haired knight.
"It's good to see you in good health, student Zoemi – I've heard that student Burushiitto has healed you and... oh...?"
The woman realized that she was being too obvious while in public - surrounded by her students no less - so she turned to the black-haired boy and spoke tilting her head innocently.
"...!"
Her eyes widened while she saw his healed-up face but her reaction was the tast one yet besides Mizoe's – she rely raised her brows before glancing back at Mizoe.
...one could say that she was fully committed and had her eyes on the prize...
"Good morning lady Perserios. That's right! Although he is still supposed to be resting for a day or two just so we are completely sure that everything is in order - we just ca here because the first prince asked my son to show up."
"..."
Mizoe responded without an ounce of hesitation and Zoemi barely held himself back from slapping his father in the back of the head!
His voice lacked any emotion making it seem like he didn't want to talk to the blue-haired woman even though he was all fidgety while looking for her before!
"O-oh...! Um, yes, of course...! The punishnt...! Yes, yes... How silly of ..."
Rokiana was now red - but unfortunately, it was the I-am-going-to-die-from-the-embarrassnt kind of red and not the happy blushing one - and she started nervously backing off thinking she just made a fool out of herself getting all happy on her own....
