All Her Secrets

Catherine looked up, immediately recognizing Ronin standing on the podium. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, making everyone think that she would teach Ronin a lesson.

However, she was just secretly complaining that Ronin’s costume was so ugly. She wondered what Ronin was thinking. Why would he dress up like that at school? Did he think he was cosplaying or something?

Ronin looked at Catherine as she looked over, and his eyebrows furrowed. He felt uneasy, unsure if Catherine was angry because he acted without permission. Catherine’s rosy lips slightly parted as she spoke in a cold voice.

“Sit down!”

She pointed to the seat next to her in the adiacent aisle. Ronin glanced at it. Although it wasn’t Catherine’s desk, the distance wasn’t that far, so it could be considered sitting next to her. Out of respect for Catherine, he decided not to argue with Bryan. Ronin happily said, “Okay!”

Then, he slung his backpack and happily skipped over to the seat. The crisis was averted. The homeroom teacher breathed a sigh of relief, intensely appreciating Catherine’s initiative to speak up and help maintain class unity.

Although Catherine appeared to have a cold personality, she had a warm heart. She just lent a hand at the right time.

Bryan looked at Ronin, smiling at Catherine. For some reason, he felt uncomfortable. He had a feeling that Ronin was trying to steal his throne, and his position was insecure.

Ever since Ronin appeared, Bryan had inexplicably developed a sense of hostility towards him. There were no accidents during class. But as soon as the dismissal bell rang and the homeroom teacher left, the atmosphere in Class 8 changed.

The originally quiet Class 8 became even quieter during dismissal. Suddenly, Bryan stood up. Students present could all feel the atmosphere was thick with tension. The few people who usually followed Bryan gathered around him.

To avoid disturbing Catherine’s rest, Bryan circled around and walked to the middle of the aisle, lowering his head to scrutinize Ronin.
