After the first session of the afternoon class, Masato turned his attention to Mari.
　He hadn't been able to talk to Mari since lunchtime.
　When Masato and the others returned to the classroom after being attacked by the mysterious gifted people during lunchtime, Mari had already taken her seat and was surrounded by other ladies, making it difficult to talk to her.
　However, Yuto had to check with Mari.
　Did she see what happened on that rooftop........
　If that was the case, that would mean that it was known that Mizuho and Marion were also gifted. In this situation, it would no longer be a problem for him alone.
　Yuto made up his mind to get up and head to Mari's seat, which was surrounded by the ladies.
　Mizuho, Marion and Nina gather at Mizuho's place and watch as she is aware of the actions of the yuto, but does not cause any reaction.
　Yuto passed behind Mizuho and Marion and spoke to Mari while talking to the ladies.

''Mari can I have a word with you?''

　Mari had noticed that Yuto was coming towards us. In fact, Mari was also casually checking on Yuto.
　Mari showed a forlorn expression for a moment, but she quickly turned her face to look at Yuto, making her face lightly tense.

''.......What?　Yuto.

　Mari managed to speak naturally, but she looked at Yuto and lightly removed her gaze from him.
　And yet, this time, her cheeks are blushing as if her face is on the upswing. It's rare for Mari to show this kind of attitude to Yuto.
　And now she's dropping her eyes, looking listless.
　Something about Mari's various emotions seemed to be mixed up in her.
　

''Yes, I need to talk to you for a moment after school...''

"...talk?　Actually I have an invitation from the kendo club after school. Tomorrow?　Or you can call me tonight...

I want to talk to you today. Not on the phone. I want to talk to you in person.

　Mari's eyes widened lightly.
　A small amount of time passed between the serious-looking Yuto and Mari, who appeared slightly flustered.
　It was rare for Yuto to be so forceful in his conversation.
　Mari has a slightly happy expression on her face, but quickly retracts it.

''Alright I'll tell Shizuka and have her talk to the people in the kendo club.

'Thanks, Mari. I'll see you later...

　Yuto walked away with a relieved expression on his serious face and returned to his seat.
　The young ladies watching this scene up close........
　Everyone is whispering to each other in whispers.

''What a story from your high lord, Mr. Du Du.......and he also had a very serious look on his face!
I don't know why but I'm getting all hot and bothered.
'He forced himself on me like that... oh!
Michiko-sama!　Take care of yourself!
'This is the kind of thing that would happen to me if we went co-ed...'
Gather round after school today, ladies and gentlemen!

　It looked like she was getting very excited.
　A short distance away, Marion, Mizuho and Nina were also staring at this Mari with half-eyes. It was as if they were catching a dangerous signal that was visible to these three.

''........That girl looks like she's changed a lot in her response to Yuto. Does she become like that just because she realized who Yuto is?　I don't know yet, but...

　Marion and Nina nodded when Mizuho said what she thought as if she were talking to herself, and Marion and Nina nodded as well.

''Well I see a little bit of a look in your eyes at Yuto-san...''

'I don't feel the sting when you came to my rescue. That was like....

　The three girls nodded their heads in a mmmm, or something like that.

''There are times when I notice the distance between us. That's a woman on the verge of falling into the delusion of love....... If you leave the two of you alone, it's a whole lot of fun. In some cases, the woman will come at you.

"!

　Mizuho and the others huffed and turned their heads to the owner of the disturbing words.
　There was Karen at her desk, arms crossed, nodding in agreement.

'I thought she could do a bit. But alas. If it comes to that, I'm not a good woman. A good woman attracts a man even if she doesn't say anything. Mari........goodbye!

　After saying that, Karen laughs Nima~ and stops in front of Mizuho and the other girls, who seem to freeze as she stands up and looks up at the three girls. Although their eyes are hidden and cannot be seen.

''.........''

I'm going to the bathroom.

　Japanese, French-American, and millennial girls squeaking at the same time.

'Shut up and go!　That's exactly the kind of thing a good woman wouldn't say!

!

　Hualien was amazed, he was!　He sneaked out of the classroom with an attitude of "I don't know what to do".
　Then, after school, Masato invited Mari to the rooftop.
　He dared to choose this place.
　Ichigo would also come soon.
　And Mari now gazed at Yuto's back and silently followed him without saying a word.
