Possessed As the Butler of a Defeated Heroine

17 – No Retest!

Class hours went smoothly. As if the fact that we failed was nothing.

When it was time for a break, Ryunosuke, Ohana, and Amelia, me and I would go over genealogies and take simple tests.

“Ha, this is pretty difficult.”

“Is this a difficult problem even for honor student Iori?” … “

“Hey, Natsuki! If you look at me funny, you’ll get a serious nose injury?”

As Amelia said, she gave me a quiet glance. I feel like doing something…… Well, first of all, I’m not a mind reader.

“Yes, compared to the rest of us who studied, Miss Iori got that score even without doing it. If you do, you will do better than us.”

“Yes, of course! Isn’t that obvious? Oh ho ho ho!”

“Well, but…… Which of us is going to ask for a retest?”

A silence fell at Ohana’s words.

It’s about who puts a bell around the cat’s neck.

Due to Monjiro’s personality as a Japanese history teacher, he’ll have to be good at persuasion.

“I see…… Kobayashi-sensei, I’m a little scared, so I’m a little…….”

Ohana carefully opened her mouth. Well, this would be natural.

“Due to Kobayashi-sensei’s personality, if you just want to retake the exam, I will refuse.”

“mmm! Certainly!”

“So what now?”

When Ryuunosuke said, he didn’t even get a failing grade, but seeing Sojuro muttering next to him, he felt a little heated up.

“Kiba, you are not a failing grade anyway.”

“Would you like to use it if you fall in love with such fun things! Let the main building do the same!”

“Yes, Mr. Kim. Except for Kiba-kun, it’s pitiful.”

“I wonder if there’s anything I can do about this or not.”

“The question is, who is going to tell Mr. Kobayashi that I am going to retake the exam?”

Amelia looked at me again and said.

“Okay, I’ll do it.”

“Are you okay, Mr. Kim?”

“I can’t help it if it doesn’t work.”

“Don’t forget your sacrifice, Kim…… !!”

Suddenly, Sojuro wiped away his tears as he spoke.

Isn’t this crazy? Anyone who sees you will know that you have gone to a battlefield.

“Don’t say anything strange, Kiba.”

“Huh? You probably know what Kobayashi-sensei likes.”

“You mean Kobayashi-sensei. Um, sure.”

As if in agony, Sojuro put her hand on her chin and thought about her.

“So, if all three of you took the exam this time, are you confident that you wouldn’t fail all of them?”

Carefully opening her mouth, Ohana shyly nodded her head.

“Ah, looking at the genealogy, I think I can do it.”

“Yes, memorization is sufficient if the expected range is sufficiently written!”

Ryunosuke and Amelia both said with a calm expression.

Ohana-ya Well, I’m not really worried, but I’m really worried about these two.

Personally, it would be best for me and Ohana to fall out, in order to connect the two.

“Kiba. Do you know what Kobayashi-sensei likes?”

“Hmm, it’s what Kobayashi-sensei likes. She thinks it won’t help much if I tell her, she’s main.”

Sojuro muttered, blurring her words.

What the hell is that?

“Tell me first. If I can prepare, I will prepare.”

“…… Uhm, that’s right To be honest, I don’t think I’ll be ready. I remember that Kobayashi-sensei liked yokan!”

“Sheep…… Gang??”

I remember to some extent what the heroines like. However, I didn’t remember everything the extras liked, so I asked just in case.

Anyway, since Sojuro is also interested in Japanese history, I thought that he would have many points of contact with Kobayashi-sensei.

Her idea was right. She knew what Monjiro liked, but……

But you’ll like yokan.

“There is no way to sell yokan at the store, so where do you get yokan?”

“Yes, Kim. That’s the problem, so I thought there was no point in actually talking about it.”

“You mean yokan?”

Amelia intervened while Sojuro and I were talking.

“Yes! According to information from the main building, he enjoys yokan, dango, and refreshments. It seems that he especially liked the one called the special prize!”

“Kiba-san, you seem to be looking at me funny…… If that’s the case, there’s no problem, so don’t worry, hehehe.”

With that said, Amelia pulled out her smart phone and dialed her.

“Rachel, if you don’t mind, please prepare yokan, dango, and Japanese sweets as special products. It would be nice to have green tea as well. Yes. Then.”

Amelia had Rachel run her errands.

“Oh, sure there was a way! How wonderful, British nobleman!!”

“Hmph, isn’t that obvious? As a student, I think going outside the suburbs during class is a problem.”

“Can you come before lunch?”

“Of course. Kim, do your best to convince me!”

She nodded at Amelia’s words.

There is no need to extend the retest to 3 days. I’m thinking of getting rid of it right away.

***

… ….

When it was lunchtime, Rachel appeared in front of the school gate with the items Amelia had asked for.

What she was holding in both her hands was the fine Japanese sweets Amelia had talked about or a paper bag full of green tea.

“Rachel, you are having a hard time.”

“This much is what the young lady asked for, even to the point of suffering. On the contrary, Sang Kim is suffering a lot.”

“Thank you, Ms. Rachel.”

“Okay, let’s go.”

After receiving her item from Rachel, she gave a light nod and went away. Amelia was waiting behind her.

“Is the thing certain?”

Amelia asked me.

She said as she showed the contents of the paper bag she was handed over.

“Yes, lady. I think this will be enough.”

Lowering her head lightly, Amelia said quietly.

“I told you not to be formal at school. Well, I believe you will do well on your own.”

“Okay.”

I was about to turn my back on Amelia and head to her office.

Her hand landed on her shoulder.

“Hyunjin, you don’t have to overdo it. I have no intention of blaming you for being a little late with the retest right now.”

A nod of her head replaced the answer.

……

…………

She went to the teachers’ office and she hurriedly looked for Monjiro Kobayashi.

Monjiro saw the brands of paper bags in both hands and called them to the student guidance room.

“This guy, Kim. Whatever it is! Are you trying to defuse the test with something like this?”

It must have been so misunderstood.

I put down the paper bag and answered.

“No, I just wanted to be able to retake the test today.”

Monjiro’s gaze was not on me, but on the paper bag of Japanese sweets I had put down.

“Teacher?”

“Kuhm, keuhum! This guy, whatever it is…… !”

“Because there is no need to wait until three days later. If I can do it right away, I will.”

“That should be fine, but where did you get this?”

Monjiro asked me where the wagashi came from.

“Ah, Iori-san’s servant bought it for me. So she said to give it to the teacher.”

“I see, I understand. There won’t be any problem with retesting. Let’s take a test after school for a little while.”

I didn’t think bribes would go smoothly, but they seem to really like it.

“Yes, Mr. Kobayashi. Then I’ll see you after school.”

“Yes.”

As I opened the door and went out, I heard a rustle behind me.

……

…………

I returned to the classroom and summarized the situation for my group.

“You mean you got permission to retake the exam? Mr. Kim.”

“Yes, it is.”

“Thank God… ….”

Ohana sighed beside her and brushed her chest.

“Ho-ho, I’m glad. There are times when Kiba-san is also useful.”

“The principal is a useful person from the beginning. Wouldn’t she have been able to enjoy an after-school tea time, let alone the re-exam, if the main building hadn’t been for the British aristocratic lady?”

“Certainly, yes. This operation would have been unthinkable without Kiba-san. Thank you.”

As Amelia politely lifted the ends of her skirt with both hands and assumed her formal posture, Sojuro waved her hand and continued her words in a puzzled tone.

“Hey, that’s it! Anyway, the headmaster has done enough, so what’s left is for you to do. Good luck!”

Sojuro said that and she disappeared from the classroom.

“From now on, all I really want to do is study…… !!”

“Whoops, let’s try.”

“Hey, let’s do our best!”

“Otsu!”

The four failed students looked into each other’s eyes and were in harmony.

***

After school.

There are only a few minutes left until the exam.

We solved the problems while taking turns, and the results of the scoring were pretty good.

At this level, it might be okay…… !

I thought so.

Square, square.

The sound of four pens was heard in the quiet classroom.

Ohana, who was sitting next to me, quietly pushed a note from her.

‘Sorry, Mr. Kim. Because of me, we became like this together…….’

It’s a writing story.

I also tore up a piece of paper and hurriedly sent a reply.

‘It’s okay, Kamiyama. It’s also a bad habit to be too sorry.’

Okay, as soon as I answered the written message, Ohana quickly replied.

Anyway, Ryunosuke and Amelia didn’t seem to notice.

‘But it’s because of me.’

‘If you’re so sorry, cook me another home meal later.’

‘Eh, are you okay with that?’

‘I think it’s good enough as long as it’s delicious.’

‘Yeah, you’re kind as expected. Kim-kun.’

Seeing the note Ohana gave her, she cautiously turned her head.

For some reason, the figure of the childhood friend, the heroine, smiling brightly, felt lovely.

I had prevented her from getting red in the face, but if she hadn’t been used to controlling her emotions, she might have been caught already.

‘How can I be kind…… ‘

‘Then, if I can afford it on the weekend, I’ll cook for you. Do you like anything?’

‘Hmm, what kind of meat or fish?’

‘hehehe, then I’ll try a bit harder! Before summer comes, let’s go on a picnic!’

‘Yes.’

She was unexpectedly a guy who said what she wanted to say, Ohana.

Was it like this? I would like to

Picnic, picnic. It’s good.

While I was properly organizing the exam questions.

“Now, let’s take the test.”

Monjiro, who was sitting in front of the podium, opened her mouth. After she sat apart from each other, she looked at the test papers.

The print that Monjiro gave out was the one I saw in the morning. It was a bit of an added level there.

Above all, the genealogy Sojuro gave me was really within the expected range. If I just memorized this, it would be enough to pass the test.
