As Long as There’s Progress Every Moment

In the end, Satania who continued laughing endlessly, was taken away by Raphiel. They both ended up in the next class, and it was too conspicuous to stay in Class B.

Especially when Satania was still laughing hysterically, making them even more noticeable.

"What's happening to her?"

Itsuki was sitting in her chair, naturally done watching the joke, and then she was puzzled by what was happening.

If being shot makes her burst into laughter, that's clearly beyond the current level of technology.

Ren knew that Satania's weapon was a magical object, but he couldn't explain it directly to Itsuki, so he had to remain silent.

"It's Itching Powder." Vigne answered loudly so that others watching could hear her clearly, she had to raise her voice a bit, "The bullets are specially made from Itching Powder, so it can achieve that effect. Satania is very sensitive to such things, so she keeps laughing."

She had just thought about how to explain this incident, so when faced with Itsuki's question, she could answer it easily.

"So that's it."

Itsuki easily believed this explanation.

Although she didn't know exactly what itching powder was, from its name alone, she knew that it could make people laugh.

After learning what happened, other students in the class who were watching returned to their seats.

Others didn't take this incident seriously, considering it as a fight between friends and not causing much discussion at all.

Seeing the confusion was over, Vigne finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The issues caused by Satania had to be dealt with; that person was really not easy to worry about.

She hoped she learned a lesson this time and stopped provoking Gabriel without reason. With her IQ, she would never be able to defeat Gabriel in her lifetime.

Not to mention, there was Raphiel next to her fanning the flames.

"Haaa..."

Vigne sighed powerlessly.

But she didn't hate life like this; besides, it was quite enjoyable to spend every day happily with everyone.

Thinking about this, she shifted her attention to Gabriel and Ren.

(Gab cares a lot about Kamikawa...)

...

Time passed, and it was already evening.

"Welcome home!"

The person welcoming Itsuki at the door was Nino, wearing an apron, and she also tied her long hair, giving her a somewhat refined temperament.

Standing behind her was Miku, also wearing an apron while holding a plate in her hands.

"Is this what you're up to?"

They greeted her so grandly that Itsuki was a bit overwhelmed, and unconsciously began to wonder if something bad was waiting for her.

"Nothing, I'm just teaching Miku how to cook." Nino said casually.

"Eh? Miku wants to learn to cook?"

Itsuki didn't hear the conversation between Nino and Miku; after learning the basics of Miku's cooking efforts yesterday, she seemed not too surprised, but she still had to ask some basic questions.

"Yes, this is the result."

Miku stepped forward and showed the items on the plate to Itsuki.

"Are you still making croquettes?"

After looking at what was on the plate for a while, Itsuki confirmed.

The croquettes Miku made this time had improved significantly compared to yesterday; at least she could recognize them as croquettes.

"Um, I prepared it especially for you."

Miku nodded, pulling Itsuki to sit on the sofa, placing the plate in front of her, and placing a pair of prepared chopsticks in her hands.

"Do you want me to try it?"

Seeing the posture, Itsuki finally realized.

No wonder both of them were waiting for her.

"Right." Nino said without hesitation.

As Miku's cooking teacher, she finally had a formal teaching experience, so of course, she had to find someone to try it.

Based on Itsuki's professional review yesterday, this candidate could only be herself.

"Has Ichika and Yotsuba eaten already?"

After looking at the croquettes on the plate, Itsuki shifted her attention to Ichika and Yotsuba sitting across from her.

From now until now, the two of them had been looking at her with proud eyes.

"No, both of them refused."

Miku wanted both of them to try it, but Ichika and Yotsuba refused adamantly.

"In that case, can I refuse too?" Itsuki asked hopefully.

Although she liked to eat, it didn't mean she liked to eat something unpleasant.

"No!" Nino walked behind her and placed her hand on Itsuki's shoulder to prevent her from escaping. "If you don't eat, no one can eat."

"Okay."

After hesitating for a moment, Itsuki took a piece of croquette and put it into her mouth.

"How is it?"

After she finished tasting, Miku immediately asked the question.

"At least it's still edible. But even so, there are still many issues..." Itsuki began to comment seriously.

"It's good to make progress."

Miku was very satisfied with this evaluation.

She had no talent in cooking, but as long as she continued to improve, it didn't matter.

When Itsuki finished tasting, Miku put away the plate and prepared to return it to the kitchen.

This time, the croquettes wouldn't be thrown away. She planned to keep them for dinner and taste them herself. Ren's tutoring was more important now.

As Miku passed Ren while carrying the plate, he encouraged her gently: "Good luck!"

"Um."

Looking at him, Miku answered with a smile.

The others were chatting and packing up, not paying attention to the brief conversation between the two of them.

...

Later in the evening, after the tutoring session ended.

After leaving the Nakano household and parting ways with Fumino and the others, Ren headed home alone while taking a stroll.

"Ren, you finally made it here!"

As he observed his surroundings, a familiar voice suddenly came from diagonally in front.

Looking toward the source of the sound, he saw Hayasaka dressed as a sexy girl standing in front of a karaoke shop, waving at him enthusiastically, as if she wanted him to come, and there were several other girls behind her wearing uniforms from another school.

"What's the situation?"

Ren was a bit confused by what was happening.
