"I Mind?"
Hearing those two words, Asuna's smile froze on her face.
This…
Wasn't how she imagined things going at all.
Lynn leaned back in his chair, looking relaxed.
Asuna stood there stiffly, unsure of what to say next.
An awkward silence filled the Supernatural Investigation Club room.
However…
As the student council president of Shuchiin, Asuna quickly regained her composure.
She focused her gaze on the commission board and smiled calmly once again. "If that's the case, then I won't press the issue, but…"
"I'd like to submit a commission to the Supernatural Investigation Club."
Hearing this, Lynn looked up at her and responded calmly, "The Supernatural Investigation Club only accepts cases related to supernatural phenomena."
"If it's just a normal request, please head left to the Service Club."
Asuna's eyelid twitched slightly.
Supernatural phenomena?
Where was she supposed to find one of those?
Asuna fell into thought, then suddenly remembered a strange girl at Shuchiin.
She rested her chin on her hand and narrowed her eyes, recalling the scene.
The day before, she saw a girl fall down a flight of stairs.
But…
Just as she was about to help her, the girl suddenly floated in midair, as if she had no weight at all!
That sight had completely shocked her.
But she still worked up the courage to ask about it, and the result…
She got ignored.
Still…
Thinking back, that moment when the girl floated—it had to be some kind of supernatural event, right?
Good!
Asuna now knew what her commission would be.
After a short pause, she spoke as if casually bringing it up, "I have a friend who fell down the stairs recently, but unexpectedly floated in the air."
She looked at Lynn with anticipation. "That should count as a supernatural event, right?"
Lynn nodded.
"Alright."
With Lynn's confirmation, Asuna didn't hesitate. "Then, how about asking President Lynn to help my friend investigate the situation?"
"Sure."
Lynn nodded again. "Bring your friend here."
"Uh…"
Asuna's expression froze.
Seeing this, Lynn raised a brow and asked, "What's wrong? Trouble?"
Asuna looked awkward. "A little…"
Since she was ignored last time, she had a feeling it'd be the same again this time.
Not to mention…
She didn't even know her friend's name.
"Um…"
Asuna hesitated, then said a bit sheepishly, "Could I ask President Lynn to come with me instead?"
Lynn didn't respond. He simply stared at her in silence.
Asuna shifted uncomfortably, crossing and uncrossing her legs, then suddenly changed the subject. "Isn't the Supernatural Investigation Club's activity room kind of cramped?"
"I noticed there are two empty rooms next door. How about allocating them to the club?"
Creak—
Lynn stood up.
"Let's go, President Yuuki."
The Supernatural Investigation Club's room was indeed a bit small.
Seeing this, Asuna smiled brightly.
---
A few minutes later.
Outside the Student Council Room.
"Is your friend a member of the student council?"
Lynn asked casually as they walked.
Yuuki Asuna smiled. "No. I meant my friend's name is recorded in the student council room."
Lynn: "?"
Creak—
Asuna opened the student council room door.
Inside were three familiar faces.
Fujiwara Chika, Kaguya Shinomiya, and Yuki Suou.
Plus Yuuki Asuna beside him.
All elite members from distinguished families.
Lynn narrowed his eyes slightly.
The entire Service Club was already under his thumb. It wouldn't be that strange to bring the student council under him too, right?
"Whoa! The president brought a guy with her!"
Fujiwara Chika rushed over and shouted in excitement!
She put her hands behind her back, lifted her chin slightly, and blinked her ocean-blue eyes as she stared at Lynn with curiosity.
The gossip queen was fully activated.
Seeing this, Asuna pressed her forehead and pushed her back.
Then she introduced him. "This is Lynn, president of the Supernatural Investigation Club."
"Huh?"
Chika blinked, then subconsciously looked toward Kaguya sitting on the sofa.
Kaguya also paused. Her scarlet eyes swept over with a cold, scrutinizing gaze.
Yuki Suou stepped forward quickly, switching to her lady-of-the-house mode and greeted him with elegant courtesy. "Greetings, Master Lynn."
Lynn glanced at her and responded in recognition. "Ah, so it's Miss Suou…"
Yuki Suou smiled. "Master Lynn, just call me Yuki."
"Alright, alright. But President Lynn and I have some business to discuss. Let's catch up another time."
Asuna promptly pushed both her and Chika aside and walked in with Lynn.
"President."
Suddenly, Kaguya's cold voice echoed.
She stared at Lynn expressionlessly.
"Bringing such a man into the student council room… won't it contaminate the air?"
Asuna froze, her eye twitching. "Kaguya, don't say unnecessary things."
Yuki Suou pursed her lips and gave Kaguya a gloating look.
Oh my!
Someone's about to get burned~
Chika scratched her head in confusion.
Hearing Kaguya's words, Lynn's eyes narrowed slightly.
From the beginning, he had sensed her hostility.
He didn't know why.
But…
The last person to provoke him like this was Yukino.
Now she was kneeling on the floor singing "Conquer."
But—
"Unnecessary?"
Kaguya's voice sounded again.
She frowned. "I don't think my words are unnecessary."
The words fell.
Yuki Suou held her breath.
Kaguya, you're fearless!
Kaguya's crimson gaze swept toward Lynn, and she spoke in a serious tone.
"If you breathe the same air as this kind of dirty man, you might get pregnant."
Yuki Suou: "?"
Chika stared at her wide-eyed. "Kaguya, Kaguya!?"
Asuna held her forehead.
Yuki Suou couldn't hold it in anymore. "Are you being sarcastic or are you serious?"
Kaguya glanced at her indifferently. "I have no interest in such foolishness."
In other words…
"You're serious about the pregnancy thing?"
Yuki Suou stared at her in disbelief.
Kaguya frowned. "What's the problem?"
That man had a vulgar aura, the student council windows weren't open, and the air wasn't circulating properly.
According to the calculations of her genius-level intellect, pregnancy was within the realm of possibility, right?
"No, no, no."
Yuki Suou quickly shook her head. "No problem, absolutely no problem!"
She gave Kaguya a thumbs-up.
"Kaguya, you really are a genius!"
Kaguya narrowed her eyes.
It sounded like praise, but…
Why did she feel a little uncomfortable?
Forget it.
Unable to figure it out, she stopped thinking about it. She picked up her black tea and said coldly, "Anyway, I refuse to stay in the same space as him."
"Then you can leave."
Suddenly, Lynn appeared right in front of Kaguya, looking down at her.
Kaguya's hand trembled, and tea spilled slightly from her cup. But she clearly had no time to worry about that.
When?!
Before she could even process what happened, she felt herself being lifted.
The next moment—
The student council room door swung open.
Thud!
Kaguya was thrown out, landing on the hallway floor like a dazed duck.
"Now you don't have to worry about getting pregnant."
Right after that, Kaguya heard a click.
The student council room door closed shut.
Kaguya: "?"
What just happened?
---
Inside the student council room.
Yuuki Asuna looked apologetic. "I'm sorry. I didn't expect things to go like that."
Lynn shook his head and calmly said, "Weren't you looking for your friend's name?"
Asuna paused for a moment, then gave an awkward smile and opened the student files.
Seeing this, Lynn looked at her oddly.
Friend?
Asuna was a little distracted.
That speed just now…
Was that supernatural?
It was like he blinked and was suddenly in front of Kaguya.
On the side, Yuki Suou suddenly said, "I'll help too."
Asuna snapped out of it and began describing the student's traits.
Meanwhile…
Chika poked Lynn with a curious expression.
"Hey~"
Lynn looked down at her.
"Was that really a superpower just now?!"
Fujiwara Chika's eyes sparkled with excitement, gesturing wildly with her hands.
"Whoosh! You appeared in front of Kaguya!"
Her words caused Yuuki Asuna to pause while flipping through the files. Her eyes kept drifting over, clearly interested too.
Seeing this, Lynn suddenly disappeared from her sight.
Fujiwara Chika: "!"
Her eyes widened, and the next second, she felt a large hand press down on her head.
Then Lynn's voice came from behind her.
"You mean this?"
Chika's heart skipped a beat!
"Wow, amazing!!"
Her eyes gleamed, and she immediately hugged Lynn's arm, her voice pleading. "Can I too? Can I learn it too?!"
Lynn squinted slightly.
It felt like his arm was being submerged in an ocean…
Suddenly—
"Found it!!"
Yuki Suou waved a student file, her voice loud with excitement!
Yuuki Asuna quickly took it from her.
She scanned the photo, then confirmed, "Yes, it's her!"
"Senjougahara Hitagi!"
Lynn's eyes narrowed.
Another familiar name…
"Class 3, Grade 2."
After confirming her name and class, Yuuki Asuna smiled and gently pulled Lynn's arm from Chika's grasp.
"Let's go, President Lynn."
"Eh—"
Chika looked disappointed.
She hadn't even gotten the secret to getting superpowers yet…
---
Outside the student council room.
Kaguya was still sitting on the floor, lost in thought about what had just happened.
Also…
Her butt hurt.
Click—
Suddenly, the door opened.
Hearing the sound, she instinctively looked up—and met Lynn's indifferent gaze.
Eek!
Kaguya's body froze instantly.
So intimidating!!!
