What is god doing here?! And she's still in the same form as the last time I met her...

"Woah, is that our teacher? She looks so young though..."

Alisa seems surprised. The original teacher in the book was a man in his late thirties, how did he even get replaced anyways?

God glances at me and sends a wink my way... this is sure to spark some rumours...

"Snap!"

Elise seems to have broken her pencil...

God walks over to the centre of the room.

"Hello students! My name is Lily. You may address me as Miss Lily or just my name. I don't care for formalities. Let's have fun learning together!"

She makes a cute pose with one eye closed.

Most of the students were charmed. And not just males.

"Now, today, we're going to go over the basics of fighting. These include sword fights and fist fights. First of all, I'd like to have a student come up in front for a demonstration..."

Many students raise their hands to volunteer, eager to please the teacher and become the favourite student... she doesn't bat an eye to them, and looks straight in my direction...

"Miss L/N, I heard you have experience in sword fighting. Care to share?"

I blinked.

One of an introvert's worst nightmares..

I awkwardly walk to the front of the class. She hands me a sword.

"Now then, I'd like you to attack me, Miss L/N."

Wait what? Just attack her like that?

"If you're not going to attack, I will~"

She dashes forward, and in the blink of an eye, she's right in front of me with her blade.

"...?!"

I narrowly dodged backwards. As expected of god.. she's fast...

I duck under and go in for a slash. She doesn't block or dodge?

"Wait..."

It's a trap! My eyes widened as she kneed me in the stomach. That's gonna hurt in the morning...

I heard a wince from the students.

"That's gotta hurt..."

I leaped two steps back, recovering from the impact.

"Miss Lily...don't you hold back on your students at all...?"

She smiles innocently like she didn't just hurt me.

"My, what's the fun in that?"

This teacher....

I dash forward and our blades clash a few times, her movements are swift, but her attacks are powerful...

It seems my current fighting style won't work.. in that case...

I smirk to myself.

"Let's change things up a bit."

God was stunned for a second, but she quickly recovers and swings her blade at me. I don't bother blocking or dodging. I go straight in for the attack.

God's attack was about to hit, but she switched to defence at my unexpected attack.

"You're using this tactic now? Not focussing on defence at all..."
