Another MC??

Hikaru was a bit surprised to hear this question from Anno. In fact, this was the third time he had met Anno; besides, both of them had not interacted much, and the number of sentences that Hikaru and Anno had spoken to each other were very few.

That's why, when Anno asked this question, Hikaru was a bit surprised. However, he didn't give it much thought because he thought that maybe Anno was just teasing him. Hikaru had also lived for more than 25 years, and he had read many novels. He knew that women asked this kind of question not because they liked him but because they just wanted to tease him and see his expression when they heard the answer to their question.

Hikaru thought that because Anno was a lady who came from a noble family, she had been in contact with many other nobles, so she could make these kinds of weird jokes.

Hikaru thought to himself, "This girl... does she think that I am like everyone else and can be easily teased?"
