But calling him "Yukima" felt too distant.
She didn't want to be distant from Yukima Azuma.
"It's nothing. More importantly, from now on, I'll just call you Mafuyu-sensei, okay?"
"Umu... that's fine."
"If Mafuyu-sensei's room ever gets messy again, just call me to help."
"N-no, it's fine, that would trouble you too much. I can just hire a cleaning service."
(,,><,,)
"Mafuyu-sensei has never hired a cleaning service before, probably because you don't want strangers in your room, right? In that case, just leave it to me."
Kirisu Mafuyu slightly parted her lips.
Once again, her thoughts had been completely seen through.
Indeed, the reason she never hired a cleaning service before was exactly that.
She didn't want strangers entering her room.
There were too many things in Kirisu Mafuyu's room that she didn't want others to see.
For example, the trophies and medals displayed in the glass cabinet in the corner.
But could she really keep relying on a student like this?
Kirisu Mafuyu truly felt uneasy.
Moreover
"You don't plan to help me for the rest of your life, do you?" Kirisu Mafuyu mumbled.
No matter how optimistically she thought about it
If throughout high school, she had been living at Yukima's house.
And in two more years
When Yukima Azuma graduated
There would be no more reason for their paths to cross.
By then, Yukima Azuma would go to university and live his own life.
Maybe he'd marry a genius novelist or a blonde-haired noble lady.
When that time came, she should know her place and quietly step away.
And when that happenedshe, who had been taken care of by Yukima Azuma for so longwould finally have to end everything.
Kirisu Mafuyu felt like she would die of sorrow.
( )
So, it was better to reject him from the beginning.
Her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
There was no way Yukima Azuma could have heard that.
And yet
"Why not? Of course, I can."
Yukima Azuma tilted his head, looking genuinely puzzled.
Kirisu Mafuyu's eyes widened in shock.
She never expected her tiny mumble to be heard by Yukima Azuma.
Even more so, she never expected him to casually respond with "Of course, I can."
At that moment, Kirisu Mafuyu's heart poundedfaster and faster.
Doki Doki~~~
"Don't say things like that so casually." She turned her head away. "After you graduate, you'll have your own life. I'm just your high school teacher, nothing more."
Hearing that, Yukima Azuma immediately stepped forward.
Seeing the young man approaching with such momentum
Kirisu Mafuyu instinctively stepped back.
In the end, she found herself leaning against the wall of the room.
Meanwhile, Yukima Azuma smoothly lifted one hand and pressed it against the wall beside her, cutting off her escape.
That's right, this was the legendary kabedon.
Being subjected to a kabedon, Kirisu Mafuyu's mind was thrown into complete chaos, to the point where it no longer made any coherent sense.
"Could it be that Mafuyu-sensei doesn't plan to take responsibility?"
Yukima Azuma's words left Kirisu Mafuyu utterly stunned.
Take responsibility?
( ®®) !!?
What did she have to take responsibility for?
Could it be
Kirisu Mafuyu immediately recalled that drunken night.
Could it be that, aside from those joyful life moments
During the time when she had lost consciousness from drinking herself senseless, she had also carried out the premium content?!
The premium content that an adult must absolutely take responsibility for?!
Just the thought of that possibility
Kirisu Mafuyu was so embarrassed that she wanted to strangle herself to death on the spot.
She was such a beast! He was still just a high school student!!
()
How could she let herself be seduced by a young man's mesmerizing face and end up doing that?!
But if she had actually done it
Then she would definitely have to take responsibility.
She would wait until he graduated, and then she would marry him.
(Ї Ї)
Kirisu Mafuyu started worrying about whether she could become a proper wife.
After all, Yukima Azuma was too exceptional.
Even if she couldn't support him in the future, at the very least, as his wife, she mustn't become a burden.
While Kirisu Mafuyu was still lost in her chaotic thoughts
"Before, when Mafuyu-sensei asked about my past, you said something, didn't you?"
"You weren't listening as a teacher, but as Kirisu Mafuyu."
"Even after I graduate, Kirisu Mafuyu will still be Kirisu Mafuyu."
"At that point, you may no longer be 'Mafuyu-sensei,' but I could still call you Mafuyu, or Mafuyu-nee."
"If that's the case, spending our whole lives together wouldn't be strange at all."
"Could it be that Mafuyu-sensei doesn't intend to keep her promise?"
"Mafuyu-sensei, please take responsibility for me!"
Yukima Azuma tilted his head, looking at her with puppy-dog eyes, his expression utterly innocent and harmless.
Kirisu Mafuyu slowly widened her eyes.
So this was what he meant by taking responsibility?
Then what about their firstborn child?!
She had even thought of a name already!

Chapter 189: Voluntarily Choosing the Wrong Answer
"Mafuyu-sensei, please take responsibility for me!"
Yukima Azuma's words still echoed in her ears.
Kirisu Mafuyu, both embarrassed and angry, immediately reached out to grab the boy's ear.
<( _)>
Yukima Azuma swiftly dodged to the side.
Having been kabedon-ed against the wall, unable to move even a bit, Kirisu Mafuyu could finally move again.
She immediately chased after Yukima Azuma.
Today, she was determined to teach this delinquent student a serious lesson!
(Д)
What was that about "taking responsibility for me," making her think all sorts of ridiculous things?!
Give back her Yumiko (if they had a daughter, that would be her name)!
( ®( ® ( ® ®) ®) ®)
After chasing Yukima Azuma for a while
In the end, since the room's size obviously couldn't compare to a sports field, even with his clear physical advantage, Yukima Azuma was still caught by Kirisu Mafuyu.
The two tumbled onto the freshly tidied bed.
The pristine, smooth white bedsheets, originally without a single wrinkle, were now creased beneath them.
Kirisu Mafuyu pressed down on Yukima Azuma, grabbing both of his cheeks with her hands and kneading them for a while.
After satisfying her desire for revenge, she finally calmed down.
And once she calmed down
Only then did Kirisu Mafuyu realize that something about their position was off.
To be precise, it could even be described as inappropriate.
A cow girl position.
( ®®) !!
Her cheeks, already flushed from the exertion, turned an even deeper shade of red.
(>///<)
She was just about to get up, pretend nothing had happened, and adjust her posture.
But things never go as smoothly as one hopes.
Yukima Azuma suddenly rolled over.
Their positions immediately reversed.
Looking up at the young man now pinning her down, Kirisu Mafuyu became truly wide awake.
"N-No, at least wait until after you graduate."
(>/////<)
She let out a soft whimper.
She had taken things too far just now.
Kirisu Mafuyu understood that high school boys couldn't easily control their desires.
But if something really did happen
Kirisu Mafuyu would blame herself for the rest of her life.
"Then, does Mafuyu-sensei want to take responsibility?"
Yukima Azuma heard Kirisu Mafuyu's whisper but didn't answer.
He simply gazed seriously into her beautiful eyes.
His breathing was slightly heavy.
After asking that question, even Yukima Azuma himself realized the issue.
Ever since he made his harem declaration,
His desires had gradually intensified.
Yukima Azuma did not want to let go of any important people around him.
Kirisu Mafuyu said they would part ways after graduation.
This was something Yukima Azuma found difficult to accept.
So he deliberately said ambiguous words to lead Kirisu Mafuyu into foolish thoughts.
Right now, Yukima Azuma was behaving like a yandere.
Using every means possible to keep the person he loved by his side.
They could have their own lives, but they could never leave Yukima Azuma.
This excessive desire was clearly somewhat twisted.
But Yukima Azuma refused to restrain himself.
Kirisu Mafuyu and Yukima Azuma stared at each other.
There were emotions in the boy's eyes that she couldn't comprehend.
Though she didn't fully understand them, Kirisu Mafuyu knew that Yukima Azuma was afraid of losing her.
This thought was as stubborn as a child's.
Normally, this teenager spoke and acted so maturely, completely unfitting for his age.
Yet this slightly childish stubbornness, while seeming out of place, carried a strange harmony.
Kirisu Mafuyu recalled the first day she visited Yukima's home.
It seemed she really had made such a promise.
That, as Kirisu Mafuyu, she would listen to Yukima Azuma's past.
That she would learn about him not as a teacher.
Perhaps she truly had a responsibility to bear.
Kirisu Mafuyu knew very well that this thought was completely wrong.
A stubborn studentshe shouldn't be stubborn along with him.
In the future, Yukima Azuma would surely have his own family.
Leaving aside the question of whether she would ever get married
But when Yukima Azuma started his own family, what role would she have in his life?
These were issues that could not be avoided.
Yet, when she looked into Yukima Azuma's eyes
Kirisu Mafuyu found herself wavering before this incorrect answer.
"It seems something like what you said has happened before."
Kirisu Mafuyu pretended to be lost in thought.
A moment later, she nodded and spoke, "Alright, I understand now. As a teacher, of course, I can't break a promise. I will take responsibility."
Hearing this, Yukima Azuma immediately smiled.
"Thank you, Mafuyu-sensei."
"U-Umu hurry and get up already."
"Oh oh, my bad. Please forgive me, Mafuyu-sensei."
"I-It's fine."
Yukima Azuma quickly sprang up.
The weight pressing on her body vanished, and Kirisu Mafuyu immediately sat up, lowering her head to adjust her collar.
At this moment, she didn't dare to look at Yukima Azuma.
In a moment of impulse, she had agreed to take on a strange responsibility.
Though she didn't regret it, such an ambiguous promise still left Kirisu Mafuyu so embarrassed that she couldn't face anyone.
(,,,,)
"Well then, I'll head out for now. Shiratamaru and Hogyokumaru haven't been fed yet."
Yukima Azuma found an excuse to slip away.
It wasn't until the room's door closed
That Kirisu Mafuyu slowly lifted her head.
She raised a hand and touched her cheek.
So warm.
She didn't need a mirror to guess how red her face had become.
Her fingers slid downward.
Kirisu Mafuyu touched the corner of her lips
Was she smiling?
And not just any smile
A genuinely happy one.
Realizing this, Kirisu Mafuyu suddenly became aware of something.
It felt as if a burden had been lifted from her heart.
Her previous thoughts weren't wrong.
If she had agreed to let Yukima Azuma help clean the room
Being taken care of like this, she would undoubtedly be heartbroken when the time to part came.
But if she thought about it carefully
Even if he hadn't helped clean the room
Could she truly part with Yukima Azuma so easily?
Kirisu Mafuyu realized
She had long been drawn in.
From the day she visited his home, from the moment she began learning about Yukima Azuma's past as simply Kirisu Mafuyu
Bit by bit, she had sunk deeper.
What happened todaywhether it had happened or notwas merely a difference in how deep she had sunk, not in the essence of the matter.
On the contrary, after choosing this "wrong answer"
She felt a sense of relief, as if a weight had been lifted.
Because deep down, she did not want to part with Yukima Azuma.
For the first time, Kirisu Mafuyu had a clear understanding of her own feelings.
Thinking of this, she covered her face with her hands.
"Yukino, I'm so sorry!"
Guilt +1.
( )
After the Ryuuou finals ended, summer vacation had practically come to a close.
Only a few days remained before the new school term began.
"Azuma! Help! Lend me your homework to copy!"
."®()®".
On the last day of summer break, Eriri rushed to Yukima Azuma's house, shouting the desperate plea of a lazy student.
She had spent the entire vacation either lazy or binge-watching anime.
Her summer homework had long been tossed to the back of her mind.
It wasn't until Sayuri reminded her that the new school term was about to begin
That Eriri suddenly remembered.
( ®®) !!
Yukima Azuma's mouth twitched slightly.
Sasuga Aho Baka Eriri.
Her guts were impressive.
Or rather, perhaps she hadn't considered who else was living in this house.
() Yare yare~
Just as Eriri was about to say something
Before she could even open her mouth
Kirisu Mafuyu like the storm that is approaching.
"Sawamura-san! Summer homework must be done by yourself! It's an important part of improving your academic performance!"
"Your last semester's exam scores barely passedyou were just a step away from being sent to remedial classes!"
( Д )*
Chng 190: Eriri lazy on the bed
"Eriri-san, can I interview you for a bit?"
"What were you thinking, coming all the way to the homeroom teacher's rented apartment just to borrow homework for copying?"
( )
Yukima Azuma sat next to Eriri, pretending to be a reporter as he curiously asked.
Meanwhile, Eriri looked completely dejected, rushing to finish her homework.
"I forgot!" Eriri complained.
( )
During the past few days staying at Yukima's house, Kirisu Mafuyu had been busy with an advanced teacher training course at Shuchiin.
