"So, that's what you need to keep in mind, Mike-san. Nee, are you still listening to me?" Kisa closed the manual and poked the man on the floor with a bamboo stick.
"Oow, I'm listening, I'm listening! Please stop poking me with that bamboo stick." Mike didn't have the energy to move because he was hungry and tired.
"I thought you were the kind onee-san, but you suddenly become a demon incarnate when you're enter into sensei mode." Mike muttered under his breath.
"What are you saying, Mike-san? I know you're mumbling about me~" Kisa crouched beside Mike with a smile. She felt satisfied for some unknown reason.
"Oh dear Goddess and heaven! I say that you are very helpful and kind, Kisa-san. Thank you very much for the guidance and also the direction!" Mike had a bad feeling because of Kisa's smile. He immediately gave a grateful compliment.
Despite saying that, Mike did feel grateful to Kisa for the time and effort in training him. In one hundred and fifty minutes, Kisa taught him how to be a perfect man with strict teaching.
No defects were allowed. Mike was required to understand all that knowledge in theory and practice even in such a short time. Starting from the etiquette, attitude, nature, and behavior of a gentleman. Mike was trained to fulfill the role of Yuna's fake boyfriend perfectly.
"Hehe, that's nice to hear. You're welcome, Yuna-sama's happiness is my happiness too. So, you mustn't disappoint her, Mike-san." Kisa gave an approving nod. Then, she helped Mike to stand up. "I ask you one more time, are you ready?"
"Thanks. I've come this far, of course, my readiness is unquestionable. I just need an order from Yuna-san, as well as extra confidence as I play the role of a perfect gentleman." Mike clenched his fist with an expression full of conviction. He needed to help Yuna but for the sake of his side quest as well. Failure was never an option.
"Nice words. But, you need to remember one extra thing, Mike-san." Kisa raised her index finger.
"And what is it?" Mike nodded and waited for the continuation.
"Yuna-sama is your priority. No matter what happens, you need to play your role perfectly even Yuna-sama herself will doubt whether it's real or fake. And remember, if necessary, you need to act like a great villain like I've taught you. You will be in the spotlight and attention, the burden you will bear is clear." Kisa put her index finger to Mike's chest and made a circular motion.
Mike had gotten a little used to Kisa's behavior. This head maid was fond of teasing other people, and he had undergone strict training.
Still, it was a bit strange because Kisa often teased him on several occasions between the practice.
"I'll keep that in mind." Mike nodded in understanding. Then, he held the hand on his chest. He smiled faintly. "Thank you for your kind advice, miss."
"Hey, why are you practicing that now? You need to make your smile more natural, remember? Natural." Kisa voiced her protest, but she didn't take any action against it.
"An alluring and natural villainous smile, hmm... Then-" Mike tried to check his expression in the large mirror nearby. He turned back to Kisa with another confidence and tried one more time. "Tonight is the beauty of grace because fate brought you to me. Would you like to dance with me?"
Kisa didn't answer or respond with anything for a few seconds. She just stared at Mike's face, especially his blue eyes.
"Kisa-san?" Mike sensed something was wrong and became a little worried.
Kisa immediately shook her head to hide her faint blush. "Oh, ye, it's perfect! Please remember that, Mike-san. That kind of smile and intonation is attractive."
"Hum-hum, I see." Mike let go of Kisa's hand.
"You need to shower and change immediately. We only have thirty minutes to reach Horikiri Auction House. I'm sure everyone is waiting in the main hall." Kisa clapped her hands to remind quick preparations.
"Oh, then, I will return to my room and immediately return to the main hall." Mike turned around and was just about to leave the room. However, Kisa grabbed his arm from behind.
"That will take more time, hurry up, take a shower in the bathroom over there. I'll prepare a set of clothes for you." Kisa pushed Mike's back toward the nearby bathroom.
"Oh, okay." Mike just nodded and complied.
*Tap*
Mike closed the sliding door and took off his clothes. He put the sweaty clothes in the basket and went to the bathroom.
Meanwhile, Kisa was looking right and left. She entered the changing room and put a towel on the hanger. Then, she took the basket filled with Mike's sweaty clothes.
'Even though this is my private training room, why do I feel like a pervert?' Kisa muttered in her mind. She looked at the other bathroom sliding door.
Behind the door, Mike was taking a shower. A man without any clothes, promising young blood above all...
Kisa blushed a little as that ridiculous thought crossed her mind. She felt wrong and ashamed of her own brain to come up with the idea of peeking. After that, she immediately went out of the room.
A few moments later, Mike came out of the bathroom with a fragrant and fresh scent. He peeked out and saw a towel nearby.
Thus, he immediately grabbed it and dried his body. Before he could get out of the bathroom, the sound of the door was heard from outside.
"Mike-san, I brought clothes for you. I put these in the basket."
"Oh, okay, big thanks!" Mike expressed his appreciation. He suddenly felt that he got a reliable girl, maybe a girlfriend?
'What are you trying to think, Mike?' Mike shook his head at the ridiculous thought he had in mind.
After that, Mike came out and put on the new black outfit. He found it a little strange that he couldn't find his sweaty clothes anywhere. Luckily, there was nothing there, so he just ignored it.
"Oh my, you look cool in that outfit. A mysterious young master." Kisa put her hands together and smiled brightly. She knew that the blue ornate black set would suit Mike.
"Thanks for the compliment, Kisa-san?" Mike was a little pensive in response. The girl before him was already wearing a fancy black dress with variations of white and blue.
"You prepared yourself so fast, Kisa-san. Sorry for using your bathroom, you need to go to another bathroom because of me. Anyway, you look beautiful in that dress." Mike didn't forget to give praise if he felt it was necessary, like Kisa's teaching just now.
"Thank you. Allow me to do a makeover for you for a moment." Kisa smiled faintly. Then, she moved her nimble fingers to apply makeup to Mike's face.
"Huh?" Mike was too late to even realize what had just happened.
"It's good now. Let's go to the main hall, everyone is ready to go." Kisa nodded in satisfaction and headed out of the room. Mike just followed right behind.
As they arrived at the main hall, everyone's attention immediately turned to Mike. Some of them were a little confused to see Mike's new appearance. When compared to the previous Mike, the current one possessed a more mature and mysterious vibe. It seemed to emit an aura that made people curious.
"Thanks for waiting. Before leaving, can I speak to you Yuna-san?" Mike greeted with a gentleman's smile.
"Ah-uh, un..." Yuna just nodded as if she had just been bewitched. She just stood there and watched Mike approach her.
