Azure Files, the starting point of all miracles

In the small pavilion, two girls surrounded the teacher, sitting on either side of him.

Feeling the tit-for-tat atmosphere from them, Xiyu felt that if she didn't do something, they would probably fight again.

So Xiyu looked at Hesha who was standing beside her.

"Hesa, you are a little too impulsive~"

"Kikyo must have realized that the situation was not good, so she wanted to come to protect me. You should have let me come forward at the beginning."

"But thank you for caring about me so much~"

"Teacher, you are so unprepared!"

Although she was very happy with the teacher's thanks, Hesha still said with some displeasure: "How do you know this guy isn't plotting against you?"

In response, Xiyu just smiled gently and said: "That won't happen. Both Hesha and Kikyo are my most important students."

"I am willing to trust my students without reservation. You will not hurt me~"

Yes, that's right!

Even children like Noah and Hanako were just a little naughty in Xiyu's eyes.

They would never have any bad intentions towards me!

If such a thing really exists, don’t even think about it!

It must be Miha - ugh, it must be Heifu who did it!

Xiyu thought so and was confident in her guess.

In this regard, Hesha was both happy and helpless.

They are happy because the teacher trusts them unconditionally, but they are helpless because the teacher seems to trust them a little too much.

At this moment, Kikyo, who had remained silent until now, spoke.

She first expressed her gratitude to the teacher for his trust.

"Really... like an idiot."

"But thank you, teacher, for trusting me so much."

"As a teacher, this is what I should do—"

"but--"

Suddenly, Kikyo changed the subject.

"There's one thing I don't understand."

Xiyu: “?”

"You said before that we are all your most important students, right?"

"Ah."

Although he didn't know why Kikyo asked this, Xiyu still nodded honestly.

Seeing this scene, a cold light flashed in Kikyo's eyes.

"If that's the case, then why did you put my name after Kazusa's when you called her name just now?"

Xiyu: What?

At this moment, Kikyo raised her finger and whispered, "'Wasa! Kikyo! Stop!' and 'Both Wasa and Kikyo are my most important students.'"

"Both times, you put my name after hers."

"Also, when you first started the conversation, you found Kazusa instead of me, Kikyo."

"So, I want to know—"

As the words fell, Kikyo's flexible forked tail quickly wrapped around Xiyu's body like a hunting python!

At the same time, she put her cheek in front of Xiyu and exhaled a warm breath with fragrance.

"Am I not as good as this little wild cat in your heart?"

"Just tell me the answer. Don't worry about me getting hurt. After all, everything has its priorities. As the operational advisor of the Hundred Demons Night Parade, I understand this kind of thing."

Xiyu: ...

At this moment, Xiyu was sweating profusely.

Although I had vaguely sensed that Kikyo had the potential to develop into a heavy girl, I didn't expect her to be so heavy!

No, I feel like I'm going to be crushed by this emotion!

However - for the sake of his students and to protect their hearts, Xiyu decided to support the girl's heavy emotions!

Just as Xiyu was about to respond, Hesha spoke up first: "Huh? Do I need to talk about that?"

"Like you said, first come, first served. When I met the teacher, you didn't even know where you were!"

"In the teacher's heart, it's only natural that I'm more important than you, right?"

As Hesha said this, her ears curled up proudly.

In response, Kikyo showed a gloomy expression.

She did not choose to compromise like she did when facing the teacher, but instead said pointedly: "Rather than saying that the amount is sufficient, it is better to say that you are the one who makes the teacher worry, right?"

"After all, the teacher called you first, so there is a possibility that he is worried about you."

"As everyone knows, I, Kiryu Kikyo, am the operational advisor of the One Hundred Demons Night Parade, and I am known for my rational actions."

"It's understandable that the teacher would trust me."

"If you want to understand it this way, then obviously I am more important to the teacher than you, right?"

After listening to Kikyo's words, Hesha raised her eyebrows.

She wanted to open her mouth to refute, but somehow, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was possible.

So she looked at the teacher beside her.

"Teacher... is this true? You are worried about me, so -"

Looking at Hesha who was a little timid, Xiyu scratched his cheek, sighed helplessly, and then slowly explained to the two of them.

"Actually, there is no such thing."

Platycodon: "..."

"Also, Kikyo, you too, in my heart, every student is equally important, and this will never change."

"I will not take sides, nor will I abandon anyone."

"The reason why we call it that is actually because of a habit."

At this point, Xiyu paused for a moment, then smiled awkwardly: "In my hometown, the pronunciations of Hesha and Kikyo are like this'Hesha' and Kikyo'."

"If I call you two together, it will become 'Kikyo and Kazusa'. Doesn't that sound a bit weird?"

"That's why I put Kazusa's name before Kikyo's."

"As for why Kazusa was the first one called just now, it was also because of this habit."

After listening to the teacher's explanation, Kazusa and Kikyo showed expressions of understanding at the same time.

"So... that's how it is..."

Although they felt a little disappointed that they didn’t win the teacher’s heart this time, unexpectedly, they also felt inexplicably relieved.

The teacher said that he would not favor any student and would not give up on any student.

This means that everyone is equally important in his heart.

This also shows that so far, no one has been able to take the lead.

That is to say, everyone has the same opportunities.

Thinking of this, the two girls once again looked at each other secretly.

Obviously, their confrontation is far from over~?

Chapter 163: Defending Sensei (Part 4)

This way, it can be considered a temporary solution.

After realizing that Kikyo and Kazusa's emotions had stabilized, Xiyu couldn't help but stretch.

I always feel like I was carried by my students all the way here.

However, compared to lamenting all this, the most important thing now is to end the current unrest!

Thinking of this, Xiyu looked at the two girls beside him.

"Kikyou, Kazusa, can you do me a favor?"

"Of course, teacher, I will do anything for you!"

Kazusa was the first to respond.

The thoughtful Kikyo felt secretly happy when she noticed that the teacher had changed the order of addressing them.

But on the surface, Kikyo still looks calm.

"A meaningless request."

"It is a fact that I rely on you, teacher, and it is natural that you should rely on me more."

In other words, I will help you even if you don't say it.

After understanding Kikyo's idea, Xiyu smiled and nodded at the two girls beside him and said, "Well, I'll leave it to you guys from now on."

"Just in case, I'll ask in advance."

At this moment, Hesha suddenly seemed to think of something, and her cute brows kept frowning slightly.

"Teacher, you want to ask us for help, don't you want to go find that 'black suit'?"

"Yes, after all, if you think about it carefully, only this guy has the motive to cause this riot."

Xiyu said confidently: "Oh, by the way, there is no need to look for him. I can still guess where he is now."

Kazusa: “…”

Platycodon: "..."

Looking at the teacher in front of them, the two cat girls fell silent at the same time.

Of course, this is not because I don’t know what to say, but because I simply have nothing to say.

Why is it that a person who is usually so wise and reliable becomes so dull at certain special times?

On the other side, perhaps Xiyu noticed the abnormality of Hesha and Kikyo, stopped criticizing Heifu and looked at the two of them in confusion.

"Wasa, Kikyo, what happened to you?"

"Is there something wrong?"

Kikyo: The order of address...

Kazusa: "This is a big problem, let's go!"

Hesha complained weakly: "Teacher, you really have no self-awareness at all!"

"Although I don't know what kind of person the man called Black Suit is, I can be sure that there is a greater than 80% chance that the riot this time has nothing to do with him!"
