Chapter 19 - Chapter 13[2/2]: Maison Couture (1)

//Maison Couture (1)//

When I think of elaborate schemes, I think of Emie-sama. What I'm scared of is when she finally goes overdrive and manipulates my love for her to the point of no return. But because of the past couple weeks since I've been reincarnated into the classroom. I doubt that'll happen, but this time, it certainly has a possibility that she will. I mean, do you think Emie-sama would suddenly open up to me? She's swore TWICE that she'll 'never even think of opening up to me'. Which is quite sad, but it's just the truth.

I've been teaching her lessons two hours past midnight now, going on about various different techniques and usage of the magical wands. I've truly been practicing using my wand with the tricks I got from playing the game everyday, not just with myself, though; Peter-sama accompanied me.

"Okay, now, Emie-sama. Do you get what I'm saying now? You pull your wand up; then you cast a simple blinding spell, understood?"

"U-understood."

And my keen eye never fails to amuse me. I've taken a few quick glances inside the blurry glass windows when Emie-sama would, and have seen Ms. Clara observing us from various different rooms, thinking that my suspicions were being conceived the whole time. Little did she know I've already figured out what's going on, a bit of a cliché, yes; but I've in fact compiled up the evidence and have concluded that.. I'm just kidding, an average-scoring student and fast food restaurant employee wouldn't know any better.

"Oblito Oculus! Blinding Eyes!"

"Great, Emie-sama! You've at least made it to the point of getting to know how to control and contain your fire magic! Be wary when you use this, though. It may cause mild irritations to the people blinded by it."

"Understood, Aiko."

"..."

"Emie-sama, I've been thinking about your sudden change in behavior the whole time, might you tell me why, now?"

"You're probably just getting excited again, because you're teaching your.."

"Ahaha, I understand now, let's resume our lesson, shall we Emie-sama?"

"Sure.."

I notice Ms. Clara is not seen anywhere through the glass windows now, I ponder what to do.

"Ara, Couture-sama, you should be sleeping at this time, now. Kindly come to your room, please."

"Yes, Clara!"

Emie-sama quickly insists.

"..And you, Ms. Collins, you shall be welcome to sleep in the maids' room, please follow me, thank you."

"I am also very sorry for the sudden invitation, Ms. Collins. It's just that we're quite lacking of tutors in the mansion. And from what I've been told, you were said to be.. idolizing of the minister's daughter, so it was given the decision to ask you for assistance for the upcoming elections in your academy, I hope you do not mind."

Almost as swift as a cheetah, Ms. Clara Page, you were already by the garden-side!

Though she'd stuttered, it only piques my curiosity more and more. What could be this whole plan? I have observed Emie-sama's actions and have seen only few strange movements, but the fact that she is looking to have a face of discomfort was more than enough to at least exempt her from being the accused in this situation. I do not even know what this suspicious situation is, unfortunately. What I know that there is something being done here, and I don't like a single bit of it. I'll be sleeping until dawn, for now. I want to know what's going on here.
