After the match ended and the crowd dispersed, Miyuki Shiba and the others finally saw Yunyi and Tatsuya Shiba chatting together. The three exchanged glances and then walked over.
"Your eye is really sharp. If you weren't still getting used to it, I don't think it would have been so easy for me to win."
As the three approached, they saw Yunyi's elbow resting on Tatsuya Shiba's waist. However, his words were actually a compliment to the other man.
"Your control is what surprises me. Yunyi, how exactly did you do it?" Tatsuya Shiba didn't hold back and directly asked the question that had been bothering him.
Of course, he had this question for a long time. The earliest time was even back to the terrorist attack when he first entered school, when he first confronted Yunyi, who was hiding his identity.
He still can't forget the feeling of being completely cut off from Psions. Neither Psions in the outside world nor the box inside his body could be under his control.
"Hmm? Didn't I already tell you this answer? I just hid some key points back then, but you should be able to figure it out by now, right?" Yunyi asked in return.
"Yeah, ever since the Nine Schools Competition, you've been constantly redefining my understanding in various ways, which has made me start to doubt my own analytical abilities," Tatsuya Shiba rarely complained.
"Oh? Your little sister's here to see you. I'll be going now."
Upon seeing Miyuki Shiba and the other two arrive, Yunyi smiled and nodded at them, then prepared to leave. But just then, Miyuki Shiba stopped him in his tracks.
" Yunyi, could you please wait a moment?"
Yunyi paused, then stopped. He turned to look at Miyuki Shiba, asking in confusion, "What's Miyuki?"
"Um, I would like to ask you to continue teaching me the technique of precisely controlling magic," Miyuki Shiba said solemnly.
Yunyi raised an eyebrow and turned to look at Tatsuya Shiba, noticing a fleeting look of surprise in his eyes.
"I know that what happened at noon may have made you unhappy, Yunyi. But I really want to learn this method, so I hope you can continue to teach me. Please!" Miyuki Shiba pleaded again.
However, she was rejected by Yunyi.
"I'm sorry, I refuse."
Upon hearing his answer, not only Miyuki Shiba, but also Honoka Mitsui and Shizuku Kitayama were somewhat taken aback. But before they could speak, Yunyi continued.
"Well, you all know my teaching methods are a bit unusual, but after what happened at noon, I've thought about it carefully and realized that this method isn't really suitable. You're girls after all, so it's understandable that you might feel uncomfortable interacting with the opposite sex. I admit I didn't consider things thoroughly before, but I won't do that again. So, let's end the teaching here! I've given you the general direction; now it's up to you to figure it out yourselves."
Yunyi paused slightly, glanced at Tatsuya Shiba, and continued, "By the way, Tatsuya has pretty much mastered this method too. If you have any questions, you can ask him. That's all for now, I'm off!"
After saying that, Yunyi turned and left without waiting for a response from Miyuki Shiba and the others.
What happened here was witnessed by many people around. Erika Chiba and Leonhart walked over together, and seeing the disappointment on Miyuki Shiba's face, they couldn't help but feel puzzled.
" Tatsuya, what's wrong? He was fine just a couple of days ago, why did he suddenly change his attitude today?" Erika Chiba asked directly.
"Well, something happened at noon that might have given Yunyi some pause. But we can't really blame him. However, he probably won't accept requests like that again in the future," said Tatsuya Shiba.
"Huh? Why are you being so secretive?" Erika Chiba said, somewhat displeased with Tatsuya's evasive explanation.
After leaving the first-year teaching area, Yunyi strolled over to the third-year area. This behavior was strictly prohibited, but no one stopped him from suddenly appearing in the third-year area. Or rather, they had gotten used to him wandering around here every now and then these past few days.
Mayumi Saegusa, who was waiting by the terminal, was also a little surprised to see Yunyi. After saying something to her classmate, she ran over to Yunyi.
" Yunyi-kun, what brings you here? Shouldn't you be practicing with Miyuki and the others at this time?" Mayumi Saegusa asked.
"Oh, it's nothing. I won't teach them anymore," Yunyi replied nonchalantly.
"Oh, looks like you've given up again, Yunyi-kun?" Mayumi Saegusa teased Yunyi.
"You little devil, don't always learn these kinds of words from me! If others find out, they'll say I'm the one who corrupted you!" Yunyi rolled her eyes helplessly.
"Hmph, you're the one who corrupted me!" Mayumi Saegusa directly admitted that she had been corrupted and put the blame on Yunyi.
Yunyi glared at her, then leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Just wait and see how I deal with you tonight."
"Get away from Mayumi Saegusa quickly stepped back and punched Yunyi in the chest, her face flushed as she scolded him.
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. I just came to take a look around. You should hurry up and go to class," Yunyi urged Mayumi Saegusa.
"I know, Yunyi-kun, don't wander around like that! If the teacher finds out, she'll come complaining to me again." Mayumi Saegusa replied, while also urging Yunyi to leave quickly.
After leaving the third-year area, Yunyi yawned and returned to the first-year area. He wasn't really interested in the lessons themselves, but watching other students spar was the only pastime he could currently find.
By the end of the afternoon classes, Yunyi, leaning against the wall, was almost asleep. But the moment the bell rang, he immediately snapped back to attention, showing no sign of drowsiness whatsoever.
As agreed yesterday, Mayumi Saegusa stayed at school to handle the handover of the Student Council's duties, while Yunyi went home first to prepare dinner for the two kids.
So when Yunyi appeared alone at the automated station, Tatsuya Shiba and the others were a little puzzled.
"You didn't wait for your girlfriend?" Erika Chiba asked bluntly, without any inhibitions.
"Sigh, I have no choice. I have two little quails waiting to be fed at home, so I have to go back first," Yunyi sighed.
"A little quail?" Shizuku Kitayama tilted her head, pondering what the word could describe. But this time, Yunyi didn't give her an answer.
Just as Erika Chiba was about to ask further, a car suddenly stopped in front of the automated train station. The rear window slowly rolled down, revealing a timid little head. "Um, do you want to ride home together?"
