289 Interlude: Asteria's typical day as a student Part 2

10 MINUTES LATER

Celeste: Teacher Kuro, can I ask something?

Kuro: Of course you can Celeste. I will answer any of your questions. After all, you are a kind kid. You are way more suited to this batch's topnotcher rather than Asteria. Sigh, why did it have to be Asteria?

Teofilo: Hahaha! Well said, well said!

Asteria: Hey teacher! I just gave you cola earlier!

Kuro: Zip it you two. Or do you want detention later?

Teofilo: …

Asteria: …

Celeste: Well um, teacher Kuro, today will be the first time that we will see the Endless Monarch up close and personal. Before, we had only seen him on our books…

Kuro: So? What is the problem with that?

Celeste: Well um, I just wonder if we will be okay once we meet the Endless Monarch later…

Kuro: Hah? What nonsense are you spouting Celeste? Of course you will be okay!

Celeste: But…

Kuro: But what?
