I’m done for, totally done for—!
Faced with a question from her smirking nemesis that she couldn’t answer, the silver-haired beauty trembled all over, her brain in a frantic storm of thoughts, yet…
She simply couldn’t come up with any explanation at all, ugh~
The more she thought back, the clearer the image of herself sneaking off just now became, making Keti blush fiercely.
Her male pride was hit hard…
After a while, Keti’s plan seemed completely ruined.
Her face flushed deeply, unable to utter a word, she had obviously aroused Lynn’s curiosity to the fullest.
Moments later, her nemesis was already sitting on the edge of her bed…
No, no, why did this guy just come over?!
Only then did she realize she hadn’t even properly buttoned her shirt.
The girl hurriedly wrapped herself tighter in the blanket.
Phew…thankfully, she had kept the blanket on the whole time, or else Lynn would have seen everything.
If they were just peers, maybe it wouldn’t be a big deal, but…with her current state, if Lynn saw her like this, it would be mortifying!
So, Keti definitely couldn’t accept her nemesis sitting on her bed.
After a moment, she quickly slipped her hand under the blanket to adjust her clothes, then awkwardly raised her head, coughed softly twice, and stiffly recanted on the spot:
“Ah…actually, no, hahaha, I… I wasn’t doing anything weird! Just teasing you a bit, how could that be! How could a boy like me do something like that!”
“I was just…um, testing you to see if you had any strange, bad thoughts! Hmph… but now it looks like there’s a serious problem!”
“Hm? Testing me?”
Lynn reached out and gently ruffled the girl’s hair.
Embarrassed, Keti didn’t dare resist, but her nemesis just smirked and took it further: “Then, Miss Keti, what exactly were you doing just now?”
“Hmm…I’m really curious. I want to understand common knowledge about girls, or else what if I get laughed at for being ignorant when chatting with others? I thought I got it earlier, but now you say that and I’m a bit confused again.”
As he spoke, Lynn suddenly pulled a Projection Stone from his pocket. With a light touch, the stone immediately projected an image of a blushing girl…
Th-This…what the hell is this?!
Staring at the projection, the silver-haired girl’s eyes widened in shock, and after a while, she gradually sank into a petrified despair.
No, no, exposing this in person is already rude enough.
If I were the nemesis, I’d probably slam the door and bolt.
But now he not only came over to tease me but also…
He even recorded it!
This…this is over, oh noooo—!
Watching her own humiliating expression on the screen, Keti twitched at the corner of her mouth, then heard Lynn laughing in her ear:
“So, what exactly were you doing~ Little kitty, can you explain it to me? You look a bit sick, your face is so red, hmm… but there seems to be some movement under the blanket. Are you doing hand exercises? Also…”
“One more question, when you’re exercising, why do you shout my name, little kitty~”
At the very end, her nemesis even leaned close to whisper, making Keti’s ears turn bright red.
And what hit her hardest, the most deadly and utterly embarrassing thing at this moment…was that she had just been mumbling Lynn’s name.
Completely, completely done for—!
Crap, he heard it!
Of course he heard it!
My fantasy just got exposed in one shot, and he even figured out that the fantasy was about him.
Ugh… but I swear it was just a random brain lapse, couldn’t think of a better guy, and he’s just a ruthless, faceless bulldozer on my side.
I have absolutely no delusions about him!
But does saying that even matter now?
Even if I explain, will he listen?
Aaaah…no, no, the most important thing now is to make him delete that video he took!
***
After a while, the silver-haired girl had completely given up, overwhelmed by shame, regretting only one thing:
Why didn’t I close the door properly!
Cough cough, right, regretting flying off isn’t an option.
If I hadn’t, I would have been too anxious to stand it!
Magic.
Oh right, anxiety!
After a while, Keti took a deep breath, recalling her original intention behind all this.
She seemed to find a breakthrough and thought, now’s a good chance to just tell this guy everything!
After all, she had planned to ask him for help anyway.
After all, Lynn was the one who found her and brought her to the Magic Academy to be his assistant.
He had to be responsible for all the problems she encountered here!
“Alright, alright! I’m not pretending anymore, okay?! I was definitely doing something naughty just now! So what?!…It’s not like I want to do this, it’s just that Richard suddenly said he’s going to give me a Practical Test on Thursday, and I was so stressed that I had to do this to relieve it!”
“If I don’t protect the students during the Instance Run, I’ll get kicked out! And you’re here teasing me about it! Wuwuwu, I just wanted to vent, can’t you leave me alone? Work’s annoying enough, why does everything have to be aimed at me, wahhh—”
Watching the girl cry out loud after his teasing, Lynn suddenly felt a bit awkward.
Ah…looks like I accidentally made the little kitty cry again…
Feeling troubled, Lynn sighed and gently patted the girl’s head, speaking softly:
“Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore, little kitty. I didn’t see anything just now, okay? Sorry… I should have been waiting outside, cough cough. But don’t worry, I already heard about this, and actually, I came to talk to you because of that Practical Test!”
“Eh? You already know about it…?”
