Yes, yes. Ladies and gentlemen, please be quiet. Now, the next one, please.

　Mari let go of her eyes from Yuto and nodded forward as her homeroom teacher clapped her hands and said so.
　Mari smiles as she looks over at the ladies and smiles.

''Nice to meet you all. My name is Mari Shirasawa. I hope you will become my friend for a short time. I also understand your position as an exam student, so please ask me anything you want to know. I'm from a co-educational school, so some of my opinions are personal, but I'd like to tell you what I know. Best regards.

　Mari bowed her head as she said this with a smile on her face.
　Admiration leaked out from the ladies and they looked at Mari as if they were woozy.

''It's nice to meet you too.
How kind of you to...
Yes, and yet you're very, very determined.
Let's have a tea party after lunch today!
'Oh!　It's wonderful.

　The ladies called out to Mari from all over the place, as if buoyed by joy. Mari was smiling at the response too, but sweat was pouring from her forehead.
　When the examiners had finished their greetings, the homeroom teacher summarized them in a calm tone of voice.

''Yes, thank you all three of you. Hmmm, everyone, please be good friends.

Sir!　May I ask the testers a question?

　The young lady sitting at the front of the class, representing everyone's opinion, raises her hand and looks excited.

''Yes~ we still have a bit of time left, and it's important for us to be comfortable talking to all of you as well... are all three of you ready?''

Oh, yes, I'm fine.

　Yuto and the others nodded and agreed.

''Well then, gentlemen, come on in.''

　When the teacher said this, all hands went up in unison.
　The questions were wide-ranging and numerous.
　Do girls and boys get along with each other in a co-ed school?　Do you ever get to work together?　Are you afraid of the boys from　Are you involved in any club activities?　And a lot of questions were posed.
　And all of those questions were put to Mari and Hualen.
　Mari was polite and Hualen was answering the questions in a slightly superior manner.
　Yuto didn't get any questions at all.
　Apparently, the ladies seemed to be avoiding talking to Yuto, who was a boy. This is because all of the ladies seemed to nervously remove their gazes when Yuto turned his attention to them.
　However, it doesn't seem that they are not interested in Yuto, and you can see that the young ladies who are not under Yuto's gaze are observing Yuto intently.

(It's kind of hard to do........ But is this how it's supposed to be at first?　(Because it's an all-girls high school, and all the ladies aren't really immune to boys.

　Then, the teacher noticed it, smiled and gave the academy students a helping hand.

''Yes, yes, do you have any questions for Mr. Doudou?　Mr. Dou Dou Dou is a male test student. If the school becomes co-educational, how many men like Mr. Dou Dou Dou are admitted to the school?　Since we're examiners this time, we've asked only calm people to come, so you don't have to worry about it.

　After being told that by the teacher, the ladies began to zap.

''Fufufu, yes, Sanjo-san.

　The young lady, Sanjo-san, had red ears and was trying to squeeze out her voice.
　Seeing that figure, it almost made Masato feel nervous.

''Shirasawa-san and.........well..............Do you still come from the same school?　Oh, excuse me, I don't know much about men in uniform.

　It's a surprisingly common question. I think that's certainly where it would be noticeable.
　However, it is a very ordinary question. The teacher must have urged her to have the courage to ask the question. Looking at her, she seems to be a very serious young lady.
　But as soon as this question was brought up, Mizuho and Marion, who were looking bored in the back, had their eyes filled with life.

''Ah, yes, that's right.''

Yes, it's the same school.

　Mari nodded to the young lady who asked a question beside her.

'Well, I thought we were similar.
I've never actually seen the lords in their school uniforms before.
'So what kind of uniforms will your lordships have to wear if the academy becomes co-educational?　I'm kind of excited.
Oh, it's true.

　Sanjo-san looked convinced and continued to ask questions to Yuto and Mari.

''Then, did the two of you talk to each other at school as well?

'Oh, yes. We've known each other since elementary school, so we talk to each other a lot.

　Mizuho and Marion's eyebrows rise with a twitch.

'Well, I see. What kind of conversations do you usually have at school?　Is there anything we shouldn't talk about with boys and girls?

　It feels like a very frivolous question, but Mari answers it with a smile.

'Yes, I'll talk to you about everything. From studying to everyday things. It's okay to talk about anything as long as it doesn't make the other person uncomfortable. It's not much different from how girls usually talk to each other, you know?

'I speak consciously and sternly to men. Men get on a roll as soon as they put on a good face.

　Suddenly, he came forward and responded to the question on his own accord, and Karen laughed at him with a nima~. Moreover, she turned her chest away and looked a bit pompous.

(This girl........can't read.)

'Really!　So you don't mind if I tell you anything or ask you anything?

　Then, as if on fire, the other ladies raised their hands.
　Well, apparently they were wondering what the rules were for talking to men.

'You talk to a lot of other people of the opposite s*x too, don't you?
'What do we call each other?　Aren't you sure your lordships don't need your sire?
How close are we going to get?
'It is always better to talk to more than one person so that we are not alone, isn't it?
If our hands touch each other, will you take responsibility for it?

　The questions came and went, and there was no end in sight.
　Even the teacher has a slightly troubled look on her face as she says, "Oh dear.
　However, since the content of the questions have something in common, Masato and Mari scratch and reply.

''It's fine to be normal. Just talk normally.''

If we're on good terms, we'll talk a lot. If we're not close, we'll talk about a lot of things. I'm the same as you, so it's nothing special, even if the person is a man. We call each other by our first names as we get to know each other, or we call each other by nicknames as we get to know each other.

'Well, well, well, you're right!
So that's what we do.
I'm feeling a lot more confident.
The idea of calling each other by name with your lordship is a bit exciting.

　The ladies' questions were slowly being answered, and the tension that existed earlier seemed to have dissipated.

''Then what do you call each other, Mr. Du and Ms. Shirasawa?''

Oh, we're ... well ... we're childhood friends, so I call her Mari.

I call him Yuto........ It's been like that since I was little, so I'm just going to call him that.

　It was somewhat embarrassing to be asked again about how to call each other that, and both Yuto and Mari were embarrassed.
　Then, the ladies are very excited, and they are as happy as if it were them.

　........except for a few.

　Suddenly, Yuto's shoulders involuntarily jumped as his whole body was surprised by the tremendous pressure he had never felt before.

(Wha, what?　(This is)

　Yuto immediately looked in the direction of what he thought was the source of the pressure.......and there were three girls looking at him without blinking.
　Mizuho, Marion, and even Nina, for some reason, their pupils......are open.

''Hee!''

　While the maidens in the class are beaming, from the tail end of the class, Mizuho, whose eyes are glowing red against a dark aura, Marion, who laughs with only her muscles and no light in her eyes, and Nina, who gives me a blank stare and looks at me like I'm looking at garbage.
　Yuto's body begins to tremble, and his survival instincts as a living being unconsciously try to disengage from this place.

''Fufufu.......I sense four black wills. ........You should run away.

　When I noticed, beside me, Nima~ and Karen were looking up at Yuto. Although her eyes are hidden from view.

''Wow, Hualen-san. What, four?　Instead of three?　Ha!

　At this time, Yuto felt a powerful qi that seemed to distort the atmosphere from the immediate vicinity. Naturally, all of Yuto's muscles began to prepare for an evacuation action.
　There is a girl there, arms folded, who looks like the strongest hero who has found her true enemy.
　That dark brave........Mari was staring at the back of the classroom.
　Mari keeps her gaze backwards and opens her mouth.

''Yuto........

Yes!

Are those kids over there your friends at work?

Umm, well one of them is different, but hey, how do you know?

'You have a very good eye.... What is it?　This feeling. This feels so dangerous... right?

No, Mari-chan seems dangerous enough..............

　Mari's eyes shot through Yuto for a moment, and Yuto was on his back.
　Mari looked at Mizuho and the others and locked eyes with each of them.
　The girls stare at each other without looking away from each other at all.

(These girls ... are supposed to be just business associates of Yuto. And that foreign girl...?)

　But now Mari's super-senses as a woman tell her that Mizuho and Marion are clear and dangerous. And I can somehow tell that Mizuho and Marion feel the same sensation in me. I don't feel that much danger from the exotic girl beside me, but for some reason, I'm curious.

(Scary, scary, scary!)　What?　What is it?　How can you create such an aura?　(All four of them)

　As Yuto's shoulders were shaking, he was poked on the back with a chomping motion. When I turned around, Karen laughed at Nima~ and gave a thumbs up.

''Good luck!''

....



　Mizuho and Marion were staring at Yuto when they noticed Mari looking at them from beside them as if she were measuring them.
　And Mizuho and Marion instantly felt the same thing that Mari was feeling, too.
　However, unlike Mari, Mizuho and Marion knew the dangerous existence of a childhood friend that Yuto had told them about. Whether it was Mari, of course, they didn't know at first.
　Then, knowing that it was a childhood friend, and moreover, with Mari's gaze and atmosphere directed against them, they completely understood who this girl was.

　But still, this time........Mizuho thought.
　She wondered why things got so complicated.
　Originally, she noticed her classmate's curse, and in order to lift it, she brought Yuto in to sneak into the academy where she was thinking of co-educating him. It even brought in someone like Mari, and Nina, who was beside her, didn't seem to remember Yuto yet, but she felt something about him.
　Mizuho looks at Marion, and Marion's cheeks are slightly puffed up as well. Apparently, Marion must be feeling a bit of consternation as well.

　When Marion noticed Mizuho's gaze and their eyes met.......they let out a sigh to each other.

　Then, from beside her, Nina let out a voice too loud to be muttered.



　In response to Nina's voice, Mizuho and Marion look at Nina.

''It's so ... irritating!

　Hearing Nina's words, Mizuho and Marion.....

'Oh...'

　And a voice of approval....

　He let out a deep, deep, sigh.



　After this, the teacher asked Masato, Mari, and Karen to sit in the last row of seats.
　That seating order is........

　From the window, it was Mari, Marion, Marion, Karen, Mizuho, Nina, and Yuto.
