Chapter 11: A Nun's Plea and a Devil's Dilemma

Badr couldn't help but tilt his head slightly. "...Just you alone?"

Although he didn't say it directly, his meaningful look and the context of their conversation made Sakurajima Mai understand immediately.

She stepped on Badr's foot and calmly replied, "Yes, it's just me. Is there a problem with me visiting the aquarium alone?"

"No problem. Mai, your foot."

Badr lowered his head and looked at Sakurajima Mai's beautiful legs wrapped in black stockings.

Sakurajima Mai gave him a sharp look.

"Add 'Senpai' to that."

"...Mai-Senpai, your foot."

The girl didn't move her foot but instead pressed down a little more complicated, her expression still calm as she asked, "What's wrong with my foot?"

Badr had no choice but to look away and said woodenly, "I hope you can step on me more ruthlessly, Your Highness.

Sakurajima Mai: "...?"

Is this how the devil plays?

"So, do you think we should look there?" She impassively changed the subject.

"Based on the basic situation, the probability that it is there is quite low."

"Is it okay to just guess?" Sakurajima Mai asked calmly.

Badr remained calm and replied, "That makes sense, so even if the probability is low, we should still check it out and rule it out.

Sakurajima Mai nodded and looked at the clock, realizing it was getting late and there was no time left for today.

She turned to Badr, "Tomorrow is Saturday. Do you have time?"

The previously calm boy immediately showed an eager expression.

"I'm not dreaming, am I? This is the first time a girl has asked me out!"

Sakurajima Mai: "..."

To a professional like Mai, his little act seemed rather amateurish.

"It doesn't seem convincing at all."

She commented.

"...I guess I'm showing off in front of a master."

Badr had to contain his excitement.

He admitted that his acting skills were lacking compared to Mai's.

It was no surprise; his skills were far from being comparable to Mai's expertise.

"Well, so that you know, you're going in alone. I'll wait outside," Sakurajima Mai said with a touch of playfulness.

Badr immediately tilted his head and stretched the tone of his answer, "...Huh?"

Seeing Badr's confused reaction, Mai finally broke into a satisfied smile. "Just kidding."

The boy showed the whites of his eyes. "Is this your way of getting back at me for earlier? That's mean, Mai."

"Same to you."

With Mai's smile, Badr arranged the meeting place with her and then got up to leave.

"I'll be there on time tomorrow."

"Mm," Sakurajima Mai said with interest, "are you going to use that piece of paper to teleport back?"

"Curious? Then watch closely."

Under Sakurajima Mai's curious gaze, Badr stood in the living room, took a breath, bent his legs slightly, and seemed ready to jump.

Just when Mai thought Badr would jump and disappear, he jumped slightly, walked directly to the door, opened it, and left.
