Chapter 502 Impossible! Absolutely Impossible!
Because it is a small country town, the area of Yumao College is not very large, and the number of students is not large. Not only is there only one class in each grade, but the total number of students in the school does not exceed one hundred.
Therefore, Aize, who is in the same grade as Yoshino Asatake and Mako Hitachi, is actually in the same class as the two of them and has the same destination, so there is no need for them to separate.
That was originally the case, but because Aize was a transfer student, before entering the class, he went to the faculty office first and met his homeroom teacher who was waiting for him there.
"I'm Nakajo Hinami, your homeroom teacher. Please give me your guidance, Ai-san."
The person who introduced herself in this way was a woman in her twenties.
The woman had a smile on her face and a gentle attitude. Although she was a teacher and a class teacher, she was not serious or scary at all. Instead, she had an indescribable sense of affinity that made people subconsciously trust her.
"Hello, Mr. Nakajo, I'm Aize."
Aize greeted her politely and did not act nonchalant just because Nakajo Hinami's attitude was gentle and approachable.
"Mr. Xuanjuro has already greeted me, and Mr. Yasuharu has also told me to take good care of you." Nakajo Hina said with a smile as if she had seen a new and good student: "I heard that you pulled out the sacred sword enshrined in the Kenji Shrine, so you are treated with courtesy by the Kenji Shrine. If you encounter any difficulties in school, you can tell me and I will try my best to help you solve them."
"Come on, I'll take you to the classroom first."
Although Nakajo Hinami does not look like a serious person, she is very decisive when doing things. She is not vague or procrastinating at all. After greeting Aize, she brought him directly to the class.
"This is Aize, the student who transferred here from abroad. From today on, he will be your classmate. Let me welcome the new student!"
Led by Nakajo Hina, all the classmates who had arrived began to applaud in unison, looking at Aize standing on the podium with curiosity in their eyes.
"I'm Aize, please give me your guidance in the future."
Aize wrote his name on the blackboard. Even though the whole class was staring at him, he still greeted them calmly. He was neither enthusiastic nor stage-frightened, so he was not looked down upon by his classmates because of his overly concise self-introduction.
"teacher!"
At this time, someone in the class raised his hand and spoke loudly.
"Can we ask our new students some questions?"
The person who made such an enthusiastic sound not only had a hint of snicker in his voice, but also a smirk on his face.
Aize took a closer look and immediately felt that he had misjudged the person.
He was wearing the same male student uniform as Aize, and sitting at the back of the classroom. He was tall and thin, and his face was not bad, but he could not hide his frivolous aura, making him look nonchalant.
Who else could it be if not Kurama Rentaro?
This guy was so blatantly acting like he was going to make fun of his cousin that Aize wanted to throw a piece of chalk at him.
Unfortunately, the classmates in the class also became interested.
"Teacher! Please let me ask a question!"
"Me, me, me! I have questions for my new classmate!"
"I'm curious about my new classmates, too!"
"Please let me ask a question!"
It seems to be a custom or practice in this country to ask questions to new transfer students in order to gain a deeper understanding of them.
Therefore, all the students in the class looked very interested and did not hide their desire to ask questions.
"this……"
Nakajo Hinami was a little undecided and couldn't help but look at Aize.
“It’s okay.” Aize still had no stage fright, nor did he feel sensitive enough to think that he was in a difficult situation. He smiled faintly and said, “Thank you all for your enthusiasm. I don’t mind satisfying your curiosity, but time is limited. The opening ceremony will be held soon, so please be merciful and stop when you are satisfied.”
"How about this, limit it to three questions."
"I will answer three questions, and after I finish, please spare my life."
Aize's rather amusing remarks made all the students in the classroom burst into laughter.
"That guy, isn't he handling the situation pretty well?" Kurama Rentaro looked at the scene with some surprise, muttering, "He's not incapable of speaking, so why is he so withdrawn?"
Kurama Rentaro, who was muttering like this, didn't know that it was not that Aize didn't know how to say polite words, but that he just didn't have the interest to flatter others.
After all, we have lived two lives as human beings, and in the previous life we finally entered society, so how bad can our emotional intelligence be?
The reason why he was finally evaluated as a loner was, firstly, that he was not in the mood to do so much superficial work; secondly, his mature mentality made him always feel that he could not get along with a group of little brats; thirdly, after traveling through time, he gained a special talent. Compared with laughing and joking with others, Aize at that time was more interested in wielding swords and guns and was more willing to spend time on this, so he became a somewhat lonely guy in the eyes of others.
I didn't act so aloof this time, just because I new here and didn't want to appear too eccentric.
After all, in this class, besides the unreliable cousin Kurama Rentaro, Asatake Yoshino and Hitachi Mako are also there.
The two of them also smiled at this time, staring at Aize standing on the podium, and watched silently from the side.
In this situation, Nakajo Hina began to call the roll and asked the students who raised their hands to ask questions to Aize.
"Excuse me, Ai-san, why do you want to transfer to Hoori?"
The first person to ask a question was a female classmate in the class. She seemed very interested in Aize and asked the question with a smile.
"I heard that you are not only from a big country, but also from a big city. Why did you give up such a good environment and come here to study?"
This should also be a question in the minds of most people who know Aize’s origins, right?
In the class, apart from Yoshino Asatake, Mako Hitachi and Rentaro Kurama, no one else knew the truth about Aize's transfer.
So, Aize answered the question without changing his expression.
"The environment in a big city is not necessarily better than that in the countryside. At least in my opinion, the atmosphere in Hoshiori is much more relaxed and pleasant than in a big city, and there is less impetuousness. In addition, my mother is a native of Hoshiori, and my grandfather's family is also well-known in Hoshiori. I am also half a Hoshiori person. This time I transferred here to change the environment and mood."
As soon as Aize finished answering this question, a second person raised his hand to ask a question.
"I heard that Ai pulled out the sacred sword that has been enshrined in the Kenshi Shrine during the Spring Festival. Is this true?"
This matter has already spread completely and has aroused the curiosity of countless local people. Now that this is a rare opportunity, those present certainly want to get a positive answer from the person involved.
"It's true." Aize did not hide it, or rather, he felt there was no need to hide it, and said directly: "Although it was an accident, I did pull out the Imperial Divine Sword, which was also the reason that prompted me to stay."
Just when Aize thought that the third question would be closely related to this so-called "opportunity", who would have thought that the third person who raised his hand made a U-turn and asked the following question.
"Well, then, Mr. Ai, who comes from a big country and a big city, have you ever had any experience in love before?"
The cheerful voice just rang out.
"Have you ever had a lover before? If so, how many times have you been in love? Are you single now? Please answer truthfully!"
This unexpected question, although it had nothing to do with the Divine Sword or transferring schools, it aroused the interest of everyone present to a great extent.
"Well, you're from a big city after all, so you must have had a few relationships, right?"
Kurama Rentaro loved this kind of topic the most. He laughed and spoke loudly on the spot, causing everyone to cheer.
Aize looked at the person who asked the question speechlessly, only to receive an innocent smile from the other person.
"Wait, Mozi, why are you making things so difficult for Mr. Aize?"
Yoshino Asatake questioned Hitachi Mako who was sitting next to her with some dissatisfaction.
That’s right, the question just now was asked by Hitachi Mako.
"This is a good opportunity, Lady Yoshino." Hitachi Mako said in a low voice like a female ninja who had seized an opportunity: "I never had the chance to learn about Lord Aize's love history before, but now is a good opportunity to learn about it."
"I heard that people born in big cities mature early and have a history of love at an early age. Lord Aize may have had a lover before, or even may be secretly in love with someone now."
"After all, Master Aize is Master Yoshino's fiancé. I, Hitachi Mako, think that this issue must be understood in advance."
Upon hearing this, Asatake Yoshino's pretty brows immediately frowned.
"Mr. Aize and I are only engaged in name only. Even if he really has a lover, I will..."
Speaking of this, Asatake Yoshino for some reason suddenly recalled the scene when she encountered danger in the mountains before.
At that time, Aize held on to herself tightly, unwilling to let go even when attacked by the evil spirit, and the scene of him gritting his teeth and persevering appeared in Asauga Yoshino's mind for some reason.
Thinking of this, Asatake Yoshinori's heart was in turmoil and her expression became complicated again.
"It's just to be on the safe side." Hitachi Mako had been observing Asatake Yoshino's performance. Seeing Asatake Yoshino's complicated expression, an inexplicable look also appeared on her face. She smiled and said, "If Lord Aize really has a lover or a sweetheart, once the other party knows about your engagement, it may cause misunderstandings, right?"
"When the time comes, Master Fang Nai will have the responsibility to explain things clearly to the other party and resolve Master Aize's worries."
"Right?"
After hearing what Hitachi Mako said, Asatake Yoshino was at a loss for words to refute.
Then, when her heart felt more and more confused and complicated, Aize's calm voice reached her and the ears of the whole class.
"Unfortunately, I don't have a lover, nor have I ever been in a relationship with anyone. Although it's a bit embarrassing, I've been single since birth. Before I came to Hoori, I barely even had the chance to hold a girl's hand."
Aize's overly straightforward response startled everyone and made Asatake Yoshinori suddenly raise her head and look towards the podium.
"You must be kidding, right?" Kurama Rentaro was the first to express his disbelief. He said confidently, "How is it possible that a handsome man from a big city has never been in love? And he has never even held a girl's hand... Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"No wonder you didn't even bother to establish a romantic relationship? You've hugged girls before, right? You must have hugged a lot of girls, right? You kid!"
Here, "hug" does not just mean hug.
In this country, the phrase "holding a girl" actually means having physical relations with a girl...
Such a straightforward statement made many people express contempt for Kurama Rentaro.
On the contrary, Asatake Yoshino and Hitachi Mako actually seemed to have some belief in it.
"Isn't that really the case?"
"Mr. Aize..."
Hitachi Mako immediately murmured something, while Asatake Yoshino looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Mainly because in the minds of the two, Aize is an extremely outstanding man who is self-disciplined, strong, and very reliable, making people feel very safe. Therefore, neither Asatake Yoshino nor Hitachi Mako are willing to believe that such a person would be so unpopular that he has rarely held hands with girls.
Most of the students in the class were like this and were skeptical of what Aize said.
There's no way. Aize has a good image. Since he gained divine power, his temperament has also begun to change, becoming a little mysterious and otherworldly. In addition, his calm and appropriate performance in public makes many people have a very good first impression of him.
In other words, they also don't believe that such a man would have no emotional history, have never been in love, or even have never held a girl's hand.
In this regard, Aize only wants to say...
"This is already the fourth question." He smiled calmly and said, "I'm sorry, but I'll stop asking questions here. It's time to go to the opening ceremony."
Nakajo Hinami, who was standing next to her, immediately spoke out in support.
"That's right, you guys, don't make it too difficult for the new students!" Nakajo Hina said with a straight face: "Also, you are all still high school students, you are not allowed to bring up topics related to love in front of the teacher, especially you, Kurama-san, you are not allowed to make dirty jokes in front of the teacher!"
You actually brought up the topic of hugging or not in front of the teacher. You really treat me as if I don't exist.
"Yes~~~"
Kurama Rentaro's drawn-out response made Nakajo Hina really angry.
"Okay, the welcome ceremony ends here. Just like what classmate Ai said, let's all get ready to attend the opening ceremony!"
Nakajo Hina started to drive people away.
"Hurry up, hurry up, you can go home after attending the opening ceremony. Remember to go to school on time tomorrow!"
At the urging of Nakajo Hina, the classmates left the classroom reluctantly.
Kurama Rentaro even ran away, as if he was ready to escape, but unfortunately, fate soon strangled him.
"Where do you want to run to?"
Aize grabbed Kurama Rentaro and sneered.
"Wait! Listen to my explanation first...ah!"
Before he could finish his sentence, Kurama Rentaro let out a scream.
Campus life on the first day of school is destined to be lively.
