Monday, after the chaotic weekend .
Despite becoming lovers with Sasakursan, because of the distance of our houses, it wasn’t possible for us to meet up and go to school together . That’s why, now I’m on heading to school alone .
I was considering a lot of things, and I thought it might make Sasakursan uncomfortable from the attention if I openly talked to her in school . So I decided that I’ll just spend my day as usual, an elegant and quiet time without talking to anyone… or at least that was the plan . I entered the classroom when Sasakursan, who was already inside, noticed me and smiled broadly,
“Ah Shinjou-kun! Good morning!”
…my plan was completely destroyed .
“Yeah, good morning . ”
I figured that there’s no more reason to hide our relationship so I casually returned her greeting, much to the surprise of the whole class who suddenly got noisy .
“Shinjou, when did you became close with Sasakursan?!”
“For it to be Shinjou of all people!”
“Eh, Yumi, when did you become friends with him?”
“He might not be a bad person, but it’s still a bit surprising . He’s a plain guy . ”
“Wait! Come to think of it, I thought I saw you guys acting all friendly with each other in town yesterday, but I thought there’s no way that’s possible so I just passed it off as a hallucination, but…”

“Eh, what was that?!”
“No way, are you guys dating?!”
Everyone was so surprised when they saw that Sasakursan and I gave friendly greetings with each other that they made a huge commotion .
Well, it’s only natural . Compared to me, Sasakursan is cute, has a good personality, is cheerful, and is also very cute .
Sasakursan apologetically clasped her hands towards me for the noisy surroundings, but I wasn’t particularly troubled by any of it .
Rather, I actually felt happy that she would think about greeting me first before considering the consequences and that she wouldn’t mind exposing our relationship to others .
But in the midst of such a fuss, talking to her would be like adding fuel to the fire, so I instead just bowed and sat down in my seat .
Naturally, a lot of my classmates came to ask me about what our relationship is, but I ignored them all with all my might .
No matter what they say, I just sat there reading my book without moving my eyebrows . Eventually, they realized that it was pointless to try to force me to talk .
Well, some of them tried to snatch the book I was reading, which I responded to by giving them a piercing gaze, making them immediately back off .
Although appearance-wise, I did not have that much muscles to be called a “muscle man”, the strength training I started in order to match my shape to my physical fitness record gave my body an intimidating aura, so it all worked out smoothly .
Of course, if it was the me of before I might have been a little shaken .

However, now I have gained a rare power that’s unique to me .
I can take such an attitude because now I have the power to do whatever I want to do .
In the end, power is the one thing that’s tremendously reliable for when something happens .
In this classroom, power is everything .
Yes, this was a jungle .
“Shinjou-kun, don’t you think you should be more friendly?”
“Oh, Sasakursan…?”
While I was thinking of stupid things, Sasakursan approached and called out to me .
It looks like today my girlfriend has taken the offensive, and whatever happened in this fuss doesn’t matter to her .
“Sasakursan! What’s your relationship with Shinjou-kun?!”
One of the classmates who saw Sasakursan come all the way here saw an opportunity and asked her that question .
“Hmm…”

Sasakursan’s eyes were saying “What should I do~?” while leaking her voice . Then, she nodded .
“Yeah, a lot of things happened but now we’re going out . ”
“””What?!”””
Those who heard were surprised by the revelation that was told with a smile while putting a finger on the chin .
I didn’t say anything either, but inside I was surprised at Sasakursan’s boldness .
From my observations about her so far, I felt that she was not the sort of person that would show off around like this .
Of course, her declaration that she doesn’t have to hide her relationship with me is very delightful that I have no intention of complaining about it .
No matter how much commotion our classmates make, it doesn’t matter if this is what it takes for me to openly be in a relationship with Sasakursan .
It’s just that the usual Sasakursan was not like this .
“Well, it became noisier than I expected…”
I thought it would be better if Sasakursan, who muttered softly, was more aware of her own appearance, but when I think about it, it’s no surprise that she can be someone like this considering the environment she grew up in was an old-fashioned organization that despises her because she’s a woman .
She, who didn’t expect the fuss to become this big, showed an embarrassed look and released her magical power all over the classroom that was filled with an uncontrollable commotion .
The flow of magical power is similar to what I felt at the time of the physical fitness test . Suddenly, my classmates stopped making a fuss and instead started having meaningless conversations, as if everything that happened before was a lie .
“I’m sorry, I made it public but I didn’t expect something like this to happen so I just decided to make it like it never happened . ”
Sasakursan turned around and bowed her head with her hands folded, but since she didn’t really need to apologize for anything in the first place, I just shrugged my shoulders .
“It’s ok, but…is it going to be noisy again if we talk like this?”
“Oh, that’s okay . Not only does my spell affect memories, but it also weakens perception for a while . ”
I don’t mind if it becomes noisy again, but Sasakursan explained that there’s no problem with us talking like this .
“So at last now we can speak normally like this . ”
“O-oh . That’s great . ”
In the next moment, Sasakursan happily said that with an angelic smile, which I shyly responded to .
I felt a bit stiff, but Sasakursan grinned at me unconcernedly .
Although I was relieved to see that, now I’m feeling troubled because even though it’s our chance to have a conversation after all that commotion, no interesting topic comes to mind .
Now, what should we talk about? I continued to ponder in my head .
