[Seele (Dark): Okay, okay, I get it, dear Bronya.]
Damn it, what did she mean by protecting Seele while she was away?
Even when she was around before, she would protect Seele too, all right? She made it sound like she was some kind of replacement.
[Herrscher of Reason: Old Fossil, stay out of my business. Besides, I'm the teacher by status!]
This one's reaction was rather different from that other child's.
[Fu Hua: This isn't about who the teacher is. It's a matter of integrity.]
[Herrscher of Reason: What integrity? Haven't you heard the idiom "there's no business without deceit"? So isn't it perfectly normal for me to use a few little tricks while doing business?]
[Fu Hua: Xiao Shi, don't twist the issue. And the original meaning of that idiom was actually "there's no business without a peak," which was a compliment. It meant that when buying grain, merchants would add an extra scoop to an already leveled measuring bucket, forming a little peak...]
[Herrscher of Reason: Enough, enough. Old Fossil, I didn't come here to listen to your lecture.]
[Herrscher of Reason: Anyway, since you said "there's no business without deceit" is praise, that means I didn't do anything wrong. Don't worry about the rest.]
[Fu Hua: That isn't the same thing.]
Sigh, Xiao Shi was as impossible as ever. She simply wouldn't listen.

And now she had even learned to pull rank. It would probably be even harder to lecture her in the future.

"I'll go first."
As the elder, Theresa stepped forward first
