Chris-sensei took me into a coffee shop.

There were many people in the restaurant even though the peak time of lunch had passed.

After Chris-sensei sipped her coffee…

“You’ve won a lot of matches so far …well done.”

“Yeah, …Chris-sensei complimented me…”

I’m actually surprised.

I almost dropped the cup in my hand.

It’s because recently, Chris-sensei’s treatment of me has been getting messier and messier, and she rarely praises me anymore.

I didn’t get a lot of praise before.

“What do you think I am? I admire my students for their achievements, and that’s what a teacher should do.”

“Because what a teacher deserves and what Chris-sensei deserves are two different things. …”

” …It’s that kind of thing about you that turns me off to praise you.”

Chris-sensei’s voice contained a hint of dismay.

“Well, okay, so what’s the deal?”

“What’s going on?”

“You seemed distressed, so I brought you here in the coffee shop.”

“‘Huh? Isn’t this for Chris-sensei’s break?

“That kind of thing… notice it.”

“No, I usually don’t understand such things, or rather, you should just say so in a normal way.”

“‘You’re insensitive, that’s why you’re single.”

I know I’m not popular, I know that.

I’ve had girlfriends, but I’ve never been popular with girls.

I’ll never be able to find love.

But you know what? I’ll tell you one thing.

“I don’t need a single, boyfriend-less teacher to tell me that!”

“What did you say…?”

Chris-sensei suddenly lowered her voice.

At that moment, I suddenly felt as if my body had cooled down.

It’s not physically cold.

It’s a cold caused by fear, by instinct, by danger.

And,

“Oh, ……”

Chris-sensei had a look on her face that a teacher shouldn’t give a student.

Those are the eyes of a murderer.

……I will be killed.

“I’m sorry, Sensei…?”

“Oh, I’m sorry, I was just trying to figure out how to cook the boy in front of me.”

That’s totally me, isn’t it?

What is this guy?

I was seriously scared.

“Hahahaha, I’m just kidding, there’s just something wrong with a man who won’t even look at such a nice teacher.”

I keep looking at her while my mouth twitches a bit.

In fact, Chris-sensei is a super high spec girl, isn’t she?

She has a good family background and is an unquestionably beautiful woman, although she looks a little tight.

And a genius who became a three-star at a young age.

On the other hand, a man would be put off by too high a spec.

“I wish you knew a bit more about women’s minds too …like the …Natalie thing.’

“Hey, hey, how can that be!”

My face turned red as I remembered what happened with Natalie just a few minutes ago.

“Hahaha, you’re so young, that’s youth!”

Chris-sensei laughed in a good mood.

“Because it’s not the trouble you think you’re having! That …what do you mean …”

I’m mumbling to myself.

“You mean Julian, right?”

Chris-sensei asked me straight out.

“Well, yes, but … do you think I can beat Julian-san?”

“I don’t think so.”

Chris-sensei said, cutting me off.

“Yeah, an instant answer is …”

“I’m sure you’ll be able to beat him in two years …or even a year, but as it stands, I don’t think you’ll be able to beat Julian. I don’t know why you went to all that trouble, but that boy is head and shoulders above the rest.”

“What’s the big deal?”

“Lightning magic while using Yin magic, it would honestly be inefficient to keep bothering to exercise double magic.”

You’re absolutely right.

Did he want to show off his power?

Maybe, just maybe, he really didn’t want to hurt his sister.

No, …that’s not going to happen.

I’ve only talked to Julian for a little while, but it didn’t seem like he had any feelings for Natalie.

Otherwise, there’s no way Natalie would be that bad at it.

“I think Natalie is as good as she can be for letting Julian take a deep hit, but that’s because she was caught off guard, and honestly, it’s beyond the level of a student.

“Yes …, but I want to win.”

Chris-sensei made eye contact with me.

“Everyone wants to win, you’re not the only one who wants to win, and it’s not so easy to win just by wanting to win— but I have a feeling you’ll do something about it.”

“You’re lifting me up so hard today.”

“Cause I’m expecting a lot from you too, well, about a penny.”

“Isn’t that too cheap?”

“That’s better than a negative.”

“No, please at least tell me that’s better than zero. …It’s not even enough to pay for coffee, but I’ll try to meet your expectations.”

I said and drank the rest of my coffee.

Just about a penny’s worth of what you just put in your mouth.

I still think your expectations are too low.
