Who Isn't a Herrscher?

A head of smooth black hair reaching her waist, a delicate and beautiful face, and a fine figure and height.

The girl was named Shirazaki Kaori, one of the school's two goddesses. She was immensely popular among both the boys and the girls.

Shirazaki Kaori walked over, stood beside Luo Mio, and greeted him with a sweet, lovely smile.

"Good morning, Teacher Toudo."

"Mm. Good morning, Shirazaki."

After greeting Luo Mio, Shirazaki Kaori sat in the seat in front of Nagumo Shuu and looked at him with a smiling expression.

"Good morning, Nagumo."

"...G-Good morning, Shirazaki."

For a moment, Luo Mio could clearly sense the many male students around the classroom staring at Nagumo Shuu with jealousy and hostility.

Likewise, Ama no Kawa Kouki discreetly cast his gaze over as well.

Naturally, Nagumo Shuu himself noticed it too, and his expression stiffened slightly.

Seeing this from the side, Luo Mio quietly sighed inwardly.

Clearly, Shirazaki Kaori had not realized that her unconscious greeting and conversation with Nagumo Shuu had practically caused him to suffer the ostracism and bullying of every boy in the class.

Although Luo Mio could have plainly told Nagumo Shuu about Shirazaki Kaori's current feelings, doing so would probably only make Nagumo Shuu's situation worse.

"Shirazaki, the class bell has already rung. How much longer are you planning to sit there?"

"Pfft, there are still three minutes."

As though venting her dissatisfaction, Shirazaki Kaori puffed out her cheeks and looked at Luo Mio.

If any other boy had faced Shirazaki Kaori looking so cute, as though she were acting spoiled, he would probably have been ecstatic enough to fly away on the spot.

But to Luo Mio, Shirazaki Kaori, childish as she was, was ultimately no different from students and juniors like Asuka, Yuzuki, Nina, and Risha.
