"Sure enough, Teacher Touko must have taken a new look at you."
Even if you look at me differently, it has nothing to do with you.
No..., think about it from another angle, if I successfully become Teacher Touko's assistant, this blond idiot should have a chance to get close to Teacher Touko.
Thinking about it this way, whether I can succeed with this guy still has a lot to do with it.
Although I don't think this blonde idiot can pursue success Teacher Touko.
"——I think it's better not to have too many expectations now."
I sighed slightly, glanced at my friend next to me and said, "Sometimes if you have too high expectations, it will hurt when you fall. I am an ordinary Magecraft teacher and I don't have that much mental endurance."
Yes, this is my current thinking, I have to lower my expectations a little.
If I failed to become Teacher Touko's assistant, I wouldn't have fallen so painfully that I would hide in the quilt and cry secretly after returning home.
Having said that, I was foolish enough to raise my expectations very high.
If I fail, I will hide in bed and cry quietly tonight.
"... No problem, Lorona, you have made so many preparations!"
The blond boy reached out and patted my shoulder, and said in a trusting tone, "Besides, Lorona, haven't you already made something Teacher Touko likes?"
"Then it's most likely just a joke."
I sighed helplessly, not having any hope.
Some time ago, Teacher Touko and I had a conversation in a cafe for a while. Teacher Touko proposed a very strange concept, Humanoid Tactical Gundam, to imitate human appearance and make giant war weapons.
To be honest, as an alchemist, I can't quite understand this kind of thing.
If we are manufacturing war weapons, wouldn't it be more advantageous to study one-hit missiles? What is the special significance of forcibly imitating the human body to fight?
This will just be a useless waste of resources.
Therefore, I don't have much hope that I can impress Teacher Touko by making the Gundam myself, although Touko seemed very interested when he talked about it at that time.
"Lorona. You have to be more confident. If you fail, I will have no chance to get close to Teacher Touko."
At this time, the blond boy revealed his purpose.
If nothing else, I couldn't help but feel a little angry when I heard it. I picked up the book and hit the blond boy hard on the head. Could it be that I am working so hard just to help you pursue the teacher.
Sure enough, if I succeed, I will never let you get close to Teacher Touko
"Okay, is it time for regular questions again?"
At this time, Teacher Touko stood in front of the podium and asked everyone. I couldn't help but be attracted by Teacher Touko, and I stopped atrocizing the blond boy.
In front of the podium, a very awe-inspiring and attractive picture was displayed. Teacher Touko was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, with long orange hair tied into a single ponytail. He stood upright like a soldier, with an awe-inspiring and gentle aura.
Subtly, I somewhat understand the feelings of those boys who pursue Teacher Touko.
"Dear Teacher Touko, can we learn runes?"
The blond boy raised his hand and asked excitedly, and when I heard it, I moved my position slightly, trying to avoid the strange sight in the classroom. As a companion of the blond boy, I really felt very ashamed.
"The word "kiss" is redundant. As for the runes, I will authorize it to the Mage's Association. If you want to learn it well, just pay for it."
"Of course, the price probably won't be too cheap, but if you are my student, I can give you a 50% discount."
On the podium, Teacher Touko looked around at everyone, and then said softly with a smile.
(It's a very generous treatment.)
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Unfortunately, I am only an auditor at the moment and cannot be considered a student of Teacher Touko. However, the blond idiot next to me seems to have taken Plant Department as an elective and can be considered a genuine student of Teacher Touko.
Although this blond idiot will only take classes from Teacher Touko.
***
soon.
"That's it for today."
Unknowingly, Teacher Touko answered several students' questions, and then turned around and left the classroom with graceful steps. His awe-inspiring movements were neat and neat, without any redundancy.
"I'm going to find Teacher Touko."
I stood up and said something to the blond idiot next to me, then trotted out with the book in my arms.
The trend of Teacher Touko is very clear. I only need to go to the infirmary to see Teacher Touko. Then I only need to invite Teacher Touko to see my research results.
If I can make Teacher Touko feel satisfied, I can probably become Teacher Touko's assistant.
"Teacher Touko, good afternoon.
After going around a few corners, I stopped Teacher Touko who was heading to the infirmary. Then, Touko turned his head as if he had expected it, and said with a soft smile:
"It's Lorona, I was thinking of looking for you later."
"Looking for me?"
"Well... I want to talk to you about some topics."
"I also have something I want to find Teacher Touko."
I hugged the book in my arms a little harder and tried to speak in a calm manner. Although I am probably too nervous now to be a little rude, it would be even more rude if I let it go.
"Really, just wait a moment and I'll go solve some troublesome things."
Chapter 127 Mecha
Just outside London.
Within Citrus Private Hospital.
(... so boring~)
I sat on the sofa in the waiting room, holding a cup of warm coffee in both hands, looking out the window at the setting dusk, silently calculating how long it would take for it to get completely dark.
"Ms. Lorona, would you like some dinner?"
Suddenly a voice of conversation rang out. I turned my head and looked towards the place where the voice came from, and saw an extremely beautiful blond nurse sister entering the waiting room with elegant steps. Her scarlet eyes were gentle and mature, and she asked me:
"At this time, it should be almost time to eat."
"Thank you very much for your kindness, but I have been sitting with no consumption, and I have no appetite for the time being."
I shook my head at the blonde nurse and refused with a gentle smile.
Then, as if God was playing a trick on me, my stomach suddenly made a "gurgling" sound, as if my stomach was protesting my cruelty and telling the blonde nurse that I was hungry.
"Well... it just so happens that I also want to have dinner, so please don't refuse Miss Lorona."
The blonde nurse covered her lips and chuckled gracefully, then turned around and left the waiting room gracefully without waiting for my answer.
Seeing this scene, I felt my cheeks were a little hot, which was because I was ashamed of myself.
But there is nothing I can do about it. In order to quickly complete the Gundam that Teacher Touko said, I have skipped a lot of time eating. Now that my body is hungry, it is natural to resist stress.
*******
Time flies.
The last ray of sunset disappeared into the horizon.
At this time, the departing blonde nurse also returned to the waiting room.
She held two exquisitely packaged boxes and placed them in front of me.
"Eat it, I hope it satisfies your appetite."
"Thank you, I'm actually not picky about food."
I smiled at the nurse, and then opened a delicate lunch box. The rich aroma of meat came out instantly, and it also carried some strange magic fluctuations, and this magic fluctuation came from the barbecue in the lunch box.
This is definitely not an ordinary side dish, at least this barbecue is definitely not a simple ingredient.
"..."
After hesitating for a while, I lowered my head and ate my dinner silently.
Since everyone has been sent here, it would be annoying if I were too pretentious. Moreover, the nurse's delivery of food should be mainly for Teacher Touko. I am lucky enough to take advantage of it.
"..."
While I was eating, the blond nurse sitting opposite me had her arms folded around her plump chest, and her scarlet eyes looked at me curiously, as if she were looking at some strange animal.
"Ms. Nurse, what's on my face?"
Hearing my question, the nurse smiled slightly.
"Because this is the first time I have seen Touko bring guests to the hospital. In the past, the people who came here were either old men and women who were about to die, or a group of bodyguards who did not allow strangers to enter. Small guests are still a bit novel to me."
Her plump body leaned forward slightly and put her hands on her chin, which highlighted the high point of her chest and made her look ready to come out.
My eyes were involuntarily attracted to the towering tower, and then I immediately realized that my gaze was a little rude, and I quietly lowered my head to eat my dinner in the box.
To be honest, I really think that this blonde nurse lady is too good-looking, and it is a pity to be a nurse in the hospital. This perfect face like an elf will definitely be the most popular if she is filmed in a movie.
"... I just came to talk to Teacher Touko about something."
I explained the reason softly.
"Well... little guest, do you want to be Touko's assistant?"
The blonde nurse asked firmly. I was slightly stunned when I heard this, and then asked doubtfully, "Ms. Nurse, how did you know, or did I make it too obvious?"
"Hmph... this is reasoning."
The blond nurse smiled confidently, raised a slender finger and shook it. "You look just like a human when you go for an interview, so as long as you combine the identity of a Clock Tower student, you can easily deduce the truth of the matter."
"Ah... that's it."
Listening to this answer, I couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
I didn't think clearly about such a simple question. Could it be that my brain is too nervous?
"Don't worry, you should have a good chance of success."
At this time, the blond nurse comforted me, with a smile in her scarlet eyes, "You know, you are the first person Touko brought to this hospital, so I should have a good impression of you."
This hospital possesses medical tools that transcend the times. It is said that they are unique things from Atlas Institute. They are priceless treasures to the outside world. They can bring people in without restricting their range of movement. In a sense, this is actually a release signal.
"Thank you for your good words."
I smiled slightly at the nurse, and then changed the subject. "But, nurse, why would you, a beauty like you, choose to work in the hospital? If you were a star, your career achievements would definitely be a thousand times higher than what you are now."
"... This is it~"
The nurse listened to my question and blinked her scarlet eyes. Then her face turned a little sad, as if she remembered some bad memory, and her beautiful face had a heart-wrenching sadness.
Seeing this, my heart suddenly aroused and I realized that I had asked something I shouldn't have asked.
"Don't be nervous, this is not a taboo question."
The nurse chuckled sadly, and then smiled bitterly in memory, "I am the second daughter of a certain family of Magecraft masters, and I am not qualified to inherit the family Magic Crest. When my father found Touko for treatment, I was given to Touko as a servant."
"——Gift!"
My eyes widened in surprise. Although there was a marriage between Magecraft masters, it was the first time she had seen such a thing, let alone such a beautiful person as the nurse, to directly give her daughter to someone else as a servant.
"Maybe he wants to use my perfect body to win over Touko."
The nurse bit her red lips slightly, with a look of hatred in her scarlet eyes. "If I can achieve a close relationship with Touko, my father will also receive preferential treatment from Touko, and his life may be extended by then."
"——Sorry, it touched your bad memory."
Hearing this answer, I felt so guilty that I apologized.
Momo secretly blamed myself for asking the question unexpectedly, but to be honest, I am not good at avoiding the highlights of these topics. To be more precise, I am not good at socializing, and I can only count three people who can be called friends.
I am a Magecraft teacher who focuses on research, and I am really not good at socializing and other things.
"They all said don't worry about it."
The nurse smiled gently at me and then looked at the door, "I am not dissatisfied with my current life. The life here is very free. Touko She is also very good to me."
"Oh~ Is this showing loyalty?"
At this moment, Teacher Touko chuckled. I turned around and saw Teacher Touko walking in wearing a white coat. He came to my side, picked up another food box, opened it and started eating.
"... Could it be that Touko you like rebellious people?"
