Rozaliya: Are You Captivated by My Charm? (Continued)

"If you need anything, come find me in Class B."

After nodding, the two went into the teacher's office to handle Kiana's transfer procedures.

Without Miss Mei and Kiana, who seemed like a foreign rich girl, by his side, Mo Yi returned to being an ordinary male student and walked into his classroom without any surprises.

He randomly found a seat and sat down. Since he was moving up from first grade to second grade, he naturally had to be reassigned to a new class. Mo Yi was just an ordinary student in the class, the kind of person who plays the role of a background character in a youth romance story. With the new class assignment, naturally no one he knew came up to chat with him.

"You can take a nap first—"

After finding his seat, Mo Yi immediately lay down on the table, ready to take a nap, without any intention of getting to know his new classmates.

"Hey, Mo Yi— "

Mo Yi: "..."

As Mo Yi was pondering his money-making plan for the new semester—whether to write a book, switch to making figurines, or manufacture various gems to make money to support himself—he was patted on the shoulder.

Looking up, I saw a boy standing next to me, with an overly familiar expression on his face.

"Do we know each other?"

Male student. "..."

"Mo Yi, you're really direct, as always, you've forgotten my name."

"We've always been classmates. Since I didn't see any other old classmates, I thought I'd come over and say hello to you."

"Yes, my name is Ito Makoto. Don't ask again next time."

"Suck--"

Because of the Princess, Mo Yi has recently revisited many classic 2D series and no longer fails to recognize certain 'celebrities' like before. For example, the female teacher named 'Kirisu Mafuyu' is a super popular character from 'We Can't Study!,' which Mo Yi recently watched at the Princess. Don't be fooled by her serious, icy beauty appearance; she's actually a silly and quirky beauty in real life.

Of course, none of this had anything to do with Mo Yi. Even when he saw his former 2D wife, Mo Yi didn't feel anything special.

What impressed Mo Yi the most was that while Mo Yi was looking at the Princess, she kept asking Mo Yi whose stocks to buy.

Mo Yi thought for a moment and naturally decided it was Teacher Bronzebeard. Compared to other characters, he was obviously the one who best matched Mo Yi's aesthetic sense, and there was also the contrast between cuteness and other things.

Then Princess Mo Yi chased after her with the Hōrai Jade Branch, shouting things like "heretic" and "Fumino the best in the world" as she did so.

Afterwards, Mo Yi understood. After all, Fumino was a female character in the entire anime whose attributes were almost identical to those of Princess —long, straight black hair, and a lack of popular support. (In the manga, Fumino has long, straight black hair, while in the anime she has long blue hair.)

Now, upon hearing the name 'Ito Makoto', Mo Yi could only gasp in shock. This was none other than the legendary beginning of a scumbag— Makoto-bro!

Because it had been so long, Mo Yi couldn't tell whether the other party was the legendary Makoto-bro always laughed at Mo Yi for not being 'sharp-eyed' enough. But just that name was enough to make Mo Yi gasp in shock!

"What's wrong, Mo Yi?"

Seeing Mo Yi's expression, Ito Makoto became somewhat flustered and asked, "Is my name strange?"

"No--"

Mo Yi waved his hand and complained:

"It's just that I know a celebrity whose name happens to be the same as yours."

"I see—"

Mo Yi asked with some curiosity:

"Ito Makoto, do you recognize Katsura Kotonoho and Saionji Sekai?"

Of course I know them!

When the topic of female classmates came up, Ito Makoto's eyes lit up and he chuckled, "Katsura Kotonoho is the class beauty from the next class, while Saionji is from our class, and it seems she's still our classmate this year."

"..."

Mo Yi: "..."

Mo Yi ignored the other party's subsequent chatter. The only thing he cared about was that Katsura Kotonoho and Saionji Sekai were really involved. Wasn't this going to be a 'good ship' storyline?

Although the other person is not a good person, he is not a bad person either. He is just a scumbag, umm, a scumbag who has not yet become a scumbag.

Since the other party had taken the initiative to greet him, Mo Yi still advised him that whether or not he could be saved depended on himself.

Mo Yi can't very well interfere in this matter!

After all, what happened between Katsura Kotonoho, Saionji Sekai, and Makoto-bro was all of their own free will. Makoto-bro didn't use any forceful or illegal means. Mo Yi is Justice Partner, not a neighborhood committee auntie, and she doesn't want to get involved in such matters.

"Ito Makoto, let me give you a piece of advice—"

Sensing the seriousness in Mo Yi's tone, Ito Makoto also stopped talking about such trivial topics as the school beauty and the pretty transfer student.

"Be more careful in life. Being a scumbag might be fun for a moment, but you might end up losing your head."

Ito Makoto: "..."

Perhaps it was Mo Yi's usual hidden aura of a King of Heroes that made his words imprinted in the other person's mind like a philosophical truth, leaving him dumbfounded.

Then, the other party smoothly stepped aside and started chatting with Saionji Sekai. After all, compared to Mo Yi, the other party had a better relationship with Saionji Sekai. More importantly, the 'world' of the 2D pot king was a beautiful girl.

Seeing this, Mo Yi shook his head and muttered:

"It's probably beyond saving."

He lay back down, pondering the usual household affairs of the Mo Yi family.

Just a few minutes later, Mo Yi felt his table being slapped again.

Mo Yi: "..."

Are you going to give people a proper space to daydream or not?

No one usually contacts me. How's the new semester going?

Mo Yi looked up and saw that it was that unfamiliar male classmate who was looking for him again. He wondered if it was Kitahara Haruki, "Chun Ge," this time.

"Hey, are you asleep?"

Then, Mo Yi heard a girl's voice that sounded rather high-pitched. He was sure it wasn't Chun Ge, but why was a female classmate looking for him?

Are you looking for someone to help you?

In the past, I chose to keep a low profile because I had no other choice. But I, Mo Yi, am different now. Nobody can ask me to take out the trash or do cleaning for free!
