C117
"Huh? What are you three still doing here?"
Shirone and the others, who were standing awkwardly, bowed their heads and stepped into the meeting room at Sienna's recognition.
"Ah, we came to say goodbye before leaving. Thank you for teaching us this semester."
An elderly teacher burst into laughter.
"Haha! It's funny to hear such words from the biggest troublemakers in the school. Anyway, you guys have also worked hard. Play hard during the vacation. After all, students should also be good at playing."
Sienna gave a seat to Shirone's group, poured tea, and offered some words of encouragement.
"Congrats on your promotion, all three of you. You'll be busier next semester, won't you? It's good to rest, but don't let your guard down. I'll be watching closely when school starts."
As expected, Sienna wasn't one to let things slide easily.
But compared to teachers who froze classrooms for chatter, her words were kind. The teachers seemed to have relaxed with the end of the semester.
"Yes, we'll work hard."
As Shirone was sipping his tea, Thad, who was standing next to him, asked Ethella.
“Teacher Ethella, if you have time, could we have dinner...?"
Shirone almost spit out his tea.
No matter how flirtatious he is, to even flirts with the monk.
Ethella also seemed taken aback, but she laughed awkwardly and declined.
"I'm sorry. I have to manage the school supplies during the vacation."
“Ah, that’s right. If I could be guided by a beautiful woman like Miss Ethella, I would also like to join the Karsys Holy Order right away.”
Ethella is shocked. Unless someone was insane, they wouldn't say such things to a bishop of a Holy Order.
However, as a woman who pursues goodness, he maintained her manners to the end.
"Hehe, it's a pity. So, what will you do during your vacation, Teacher Thad?"
Sienna intercepted the answer.
"Heh, he'll probably go around chasing women."
Thad's brow wrinkled.
Why was this woman always looking for a fight in everything? She seemed to itch if she didn't pick a fight even on the last day of the semester.
Knowing that getting angry would mean he lost, Thad shrugged it off.
"Haha, there's nothing shameful about falling in love at my age. I'm worried about you, Teacher Sienna. Your prickly personality might make it hard for you to find a partner."
"I beg your pardon?"
"What? You lack charm, charm. I can tell just by looking. You've never even been on a date with a man before, have you? That's because of your prickly personality."
Sienna squinted her eyes and shouted.
"Don't jump to conclusions! I’ve dated men at least!”
The teachers all turned to look at Sienna at her unexpected statement.
Shirone and his friends, who knew about her difficult relationship with Armin, couldn't help but be surprised.
"Really, Teacher? When? Who did you date?"
Thad laughed as he held onto his stomach.
"Hahaha! Guys, do you believe that? She's just trying to save face. Isn't that right, Teacher Sienna?"
"You're making fun of me. I really did date someone!"
"Really? Then who? I hope it's not rude to ask for their name?"
Sienna gritted her teeth and glared at Thad.
She don't know about anyone else, but she never wanted to lose to this man.
"Ma...”
"Ma?"
Everyone's ears perked up.
"I'm dating... magic."
Sienna's face turned bright red.
They say that when people try to bluff, words beyond reason come out without hesitation, and the current situation was the prime example.
The atmosphere in the meeting room became solemn, the red-faced teachers turned their heads away.
