"Pat-pat~ Pat-pat~"

For a moment, all other sounds in the Student Council room ceased, except for the clatter of food falling onto the table.

Mari Watanabe's face turned bright red at a visible speed, and her gaze towards Yunyi was full of resentment.

Yunyi tapped his fingers lightly on the table a few times, and tiny cracks appeared beneath the food scattered on the table.

After tidying up the table, Yunyi said, "Remember to be more careful next time, don't always be so careless."

"You! You..." Mari Watanabe was so angry that she couldn't even speak. Her face was terribly red, making Mayumi Saegusa hesitant to offer any words of comfort.

"Alright! Sit down!"

However, after Yunyi spoke, Mari Watanabe immediately sat back down. She glared at Yunyi resentfully, but didn't say anything more.

Kei Isori and Kanon Chiyoda stared blankly at the scene, exchanging bewildered glances, unable to understand why Mari Watanabe was being so obedient.

"Let's get down to business. Since you brought up the need to fill vacancies in the Public Morals Committee, you must have some candidates to recommend, right? Tell me, who are they?" Yunyi asked Mari Watanabe.

Mari Watanabe snorted softly. She wanted to ignore Yunyi, but she was also afraid that Yunyi would cast another Kotodama Curse on her and make her say it, which would be quite embarrassing.

"I recommend Kanon Chiyoda. She is more than capable of serving as Public Morals Committee, both in terms of ability and character," Mari Watanabe said.

Yunyi turned to look at Kanon Chiyoda, then nodded. This girl, who should have been the Public Morals Committee, was now only a Public Morals Committee under him; it was quite pitiful, really.

"No problem, I agree with this candidate. Are there any others? I remember there are still a few third-year students on the Public Morals Committee, they'll be stepping down soon, right?" Yunyi asked.

"As for other people, let us help you find some more," Mari Watanabe said.

She understood Yunyi's personality; if he were to decide the candidates himself, he probably wouldn't be able to find a suitable person in a short time, and in the end, he would likely dump all the work on Tatsuya Shiba. This even made Mari Watanabe, the former chairman, somewhat disapproving.

"Actually, I have a few candidates in mind, but I don't know if they're suitable." However, just as Mari Watanabe, Yunyi said something that surprised her.

"You have candidates? Who are they?" Mari Watanabe pressed.

"You should know that transfer student in our class, right? She's one. And if I had to recommend another one, I'd say Mikihiko Yoshida from Class 1-E," Yunyi said.

" Mikihiko Yoshida? He's the student who participated in the Monolith Code with you guys during the Nine Schools Competition, right? He's fine. But what about that other transfer student? Is she okay?" Mari Watanabe asked uncertainly.

"Don't worry, her abilities are absolutely trustworthy. As for the rest, with me here, she won't do anything reckless," Yunyi replied.

" Yunyi-kun, are you so sure Lina will agree?" Mayumi Saegusa asked doubtfully.

Yunyi nodded. In his view, his proposal left Lina with no option to refuse. After all, that girl still owed Yunyi a bet.

"In that case, why don't we have them come to the Student Council office after school? Although new members are usually added at the beginning of the semester, the Public Morals Committee is indeed short-handed right now, so it wouldn't be a problem to add them directly," Mari Watanabe suggested.

"Then it's settled." Yunyi responded, then turned to Tatsuya and said, " Tatsuya, Mikihiko you please inform Mikihiko for me?"

"I understand," Tatsuya Shiba replied.

With that topic concluded, lunch break was almost over. After a few more casual words, everyone returned to their classrooms.

The afternoon classes were still conducted via terminals, but the materials Yunyi consulted were completely different from those of the other students. This scene was noticed by the teacher who was patrolling the classroom, but he only stood next to Yunyi for a while before leaving, without paying any attention to Yunyi.

When school was over, Yunyi called out to Lina, who was about to go home.

" Lina, don't go yet, come with me to the Student Council room."

Hearing Yunyi's words, Lina turned to look at him in confusion and asked, " Student Council room? What are we going there for?"

"It's just arranging a job for you, let's go." Yunyi didn't explain, grabbed Lina by the collar and walked out.

Lina, whom he was carrying, struggled a few times but couldn't break free. She could only pitifully be carried to the Student Council room by Yunyi. This scene stunned Miyuki Shiba, who was following behind the two. Good heavens, could this be the consequence of befriending Yunyi? Looking at Lina's appearance, she trembled inwardly.

When Lina arrived at the Student Council room and heard that she was to be Public Morals Committee, she immediately wanted to refuse.

"Hey, have you forgotten about the bet you owe me? You don't want to be the Public Morals Committee, huh? Then honor the bet!" However, before Lina could even speak, Yunyi cut her off!

Upon hearing Yunyi's words, Lina immediately shut her mouth. She didn't want to honor the bet; that would be too embarrassing!

Seeing that Lina had already acquiesced, Yunyi turned his gaze to the other two.

"Welcome to the team, Chiyoda and Mikihiko. If you have any questions about work, you can ask Tatsuya. He's a senior and knows much more than I do."

Seeing Yunyi speak so normally, Mari Watanabe, who was standing to the side, was stunned.

Mikihiko Yoshida and Yunyi were classmates for a semester. Although their relationship wasn't very close, they had gotten to know each other quite a bit. As for Kanon Chiyoda, although she did dislike Yunyi's usual behavior, she wouldn't rashly nitpick when he was all smiles.

With three new members added to the Public Morals Committee, Tatsuya Shiba's workload was significantly reduced. He led the three to the Public Morals Committee office, while Yunyi stayed in the Student Council room, asking Azusa Nakajo to help him apply for the use of the simulation battle room.

"Um, Yunyi, I can approve the right to use it, but could you please not damage the battle room? The school teachers have already warned us twice. If this continues..."

Looking at Azusa Nakajo's face, which was on the verge of tears, Yunyi was speechless.

"Maybe we shouldn't apply. I'm not confident I can control this magic perfectly right now," Yunyi sighed.
