Chapter 43
Becoming a Teacher
"You want me to be a teacher? Really?" Shi Chen looked at Nangong Nayue in disbelief.
"What's fake about that? Do you expect me to support you?"
"It's not impossible."
"Dream on!" Nangong Nayue rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "You're not kidding, are you?"
"That's definitely not it, but what about my identity?"
"Heh~" Nangong Nayue sneered, "Don't you know my identity? Getting you an identity won't be difficult, will it?"
"All right."
"I'm gone." After Nangong Nayue finished speaking, a magic circle appeared behind her and then swallowed her up, and her petite figure disappeared.
Shichen looked on with envy.
He decided that once he gained magic power, he would definitely seek out Nangong Nayue to learn her spatial manipulation techniques.
Such convenient magic, it would be a shame not to learn it.
There are also various handy little magic tricks from Master Vlamé that make life easier.
Once he has magic powers, he can go see Frilian and his master.
......
Shi Chen spent two leisurely days at Nangong Nayue's house, where she arranged his identity and made him her cousin.
I don't know if she did it on purpose, since she had clearly said before that he was older than her.
Thanks to this, Shichen should now call her "elder sister".
Of course, Shichen would never call her "older sister" at home; Natsuki-chan still has feelings for her. But there's no way she can do that outside.
He does fit the description of Nangong Nayue's relatives quite well, after all, she has noble blood and Shichen's temperament is so extraordinary, he does seem like a noble scion.
With his identity settled, it was time to start working. Nangong Nayue made the arrangements and placed him in a position at her school.
That is, the private Saikai Academy.
Located in the southern part of Itogami City, the private Saikai Academy is a co-educational school that combines junior and senior high school education. All the children of researchers on Itogami Island attend this school.
Incidentally, Nangong Nayue graduated from this school.
On the fourth day after arriving in this world, Shichen was brought to an interview by Nangong Nayue, and with her introduction, he passed the interview with ease.
Unfortunately, most of the teaching positions are full, with only physical education teachers available in the middle school section.
Nangong Nayue directly gave him the job, without giving him any choice, showing the imposing manner of an older sister.
"I didn't know you had a younger brother, Nazuki-chan. He's really handsome. Do you have a girlfriend?" Misaki Sasaki leaned closer to Tokimitsu and nudged him with her shoulder in a suggestive way.
Misaki Sasaki, a graduate of the private Ayami Academy like Natsuki Minami, is her junior and also a physical education teacher at the Ayami Academy's middle school.
She had dark red hair topped with two buns, and wore a form-fitting cheongsam that outlined her alluring curves.
A typical image of a Chinese woman.
Unlike Nangong Nayue, who was cold and serious, she was all smiles and very lively. She had been with the interview the whole time.
Her relationship with Nangong Nayue wasn't bad; she could even affectionately pat her head.
Although Nangong Nayue would refuse, she showed no sign of dislike.
"Chen, don't pay attention to this stupid dog," Nangong Nayue said disdainfully.
"I understand, then... Sister Yue," Shichen replied, his eyes fixed on Sasaki Misaki without even glancing at her.
Outside, I have to call Nangong Nayue "elder sister," it's a new rule, and I'm still getting used to it.
"Eh? Nagatsuki-chan, why? Are you a brother complex? But your little brother is so handsome, it's normal to be a little fascinated." Sasaki Misaki went around to Nagatsuki's side again and bumped into her in a coquettish manner.
"Are you in heat? You stupid dog!" Nangong Nayue pushed her away impatiently.
"But your brother is really handsome, and we'll be colleagues soon, so it's good to keep the good stuff in the family!"
"You're just lustful!"
"Can feelings develop over time?"
"Can't!"
"Why? You're not thinking of keeping it for yourself, are you?"
"You... stupid dog!"
Nanami Nagatsuki couldn't take it anymore. The fan in her hand disappeared instantly and reappeared on Sasaki Misaki's head, where she slapped her hard.
"Ouch...it hurts!" Misaki Sasaki clutched her head, her eyes brimming with tears.
"Hmph~ I just wanted you to calm down." Nangong Nayue remained unmoved.
"That's so mean!"
"I can't be bothered with you, Chen, let's go." Nangong Nayue took the lead and walked towards the school gate.
"Um... goodbye, Sasa-sensei." Tokishi waved politely to Sasazaki Misaki.
"Okay~" Sasaki Misaki immediately beamed with joy.
Shi Chen followed Nangong Nayue out of the school gate. She suddenly stopped and glared at him unhappily.
"W-What's wrong, Natsuki-chan?"
"Call me 'sister' outside!" Nangong Nayue emphasized coldly.
"oh."
"I'm asking you, do you have feelings for that stupid dog?"
"Huh?" Shi Chen was stunned.
"What? Why were you being so nice to her just now?"
"No, I was just saying goodbye normally. And where did you get that idea? This was the first time I'd ever met her!" Shi Chen cried out, accusing himself of being wronged.
"Hmph!" Nangong Nayue snorted coldly, crossing her arms: "Who knows if you like every girl you see?"
"That's impossible. I have absolutely no feelings for Sasa-sensei," Shichen shook his head to assure him.
"...You really are a lolicon?" Nangong Nayue stared at him warily.
"...It's not that I like lolis, it's just that the person I like happens to be a loli."
"..." Nangong Nayue was speechless, then turned around, slapped her fan in her hand, and disappeared from the spot.
"You can walk back yourself."
Shi Chen shook his head helplessly and started walking towards the apartment.
There was nothing he could do; he couldn't use teleportation magic, and he didn't even know if it would work on himself.
He could only pray that he wasn't immune to his own magic.
The apartment wasn't far from the private Saikai Academy, and it didn't take long to get home. Aside from attracting the attention of some women, I didn't see any familiar faces along the way.
He didn't dare to wander around, as Nangong Nayue wouldn't allow it.
Since he has settled down recently, he has been openly expressing his feelings for Nangong Nayue at home.
It wasn't explicitly stated, but it meant telling her not to always have such a serious face, otherwise she wouldn't be cute, and to be gentler with him.
In Japan, praising a woman as cute generally means liking her. Of course, Shichen does indeed like Nangong Nayue.
But Nangong Nayue wasn't indiscriminate in her affections, and she wasn't familiar with Shichen yet, nor was she interested in romance for the time being, so how could she possibly react to his expressions?
Moreover, because he expressed his time so openly, she suspected that he might be a rather sentimental person.
With such excellent conditions and the aura of a True Ancestor, it's perfectly normal.
Now that Nangong Nayue is his older sister, she can't let him go out casually in order to prevent him from having affairs.
She even goes shopping herself. She doesn't trust Shichen to go shopping alone, because who knows if he might suddenly hook up with another woman.
On Itogami Island, most women are quite open-minded, and the time is so tempting... He is safest at home.
"You're back. Make me a cup of black tea," Nangong Nayue ordered as soon as Shichen entered.
"Okay." Shichen obediently came over.
It's no big deal to make black tea for Nangong Nayue. After all, he's living under someone else's roof, and you only get what you give. He'll drink it too, so it's like making it for himself. But once he has a job and money, he'll have to stand up for himself.
After brewing the black tea, Shi Chen sat opposite Nangong Nayue, enjoying the flavor of the tea with her.
If Nangong Nayue hadn't been sitting on a single sofa, he would have sat next to her.
Once they get along better, he wants Nangong Nayue to sit on his lap!
The quiet atmosphere didn't last long. Nangong Nayue put down her tea, glanced at the time, and calmly asked, "You shouldn't mind teaching physical education, right?"
"It's alright." Shi Chen nodded.
"No problem?"
"Believe me."
"Well, you're my younger brother, and I introduced you to him, so you can't embarrass yourself."
"...Okay, Natsuki-chan."
"You're not cute at all," Nangong Nayue glared at him.
"Hehe~ There's no rule that you have to call me 'sister' at home." Shi Chen replied smugly.
"Fine, I'll see how good your teaching is."
"Don't worry."
The time for his class came quickly; it was his third day at the company.
As April approaches, the weather in Itogami City is unbearably hot, but the students' love for physical education class remains undiminished.
Middle school, Grade 1, Class B.
"Kojo, I heard we have our own PE teacher now, instead of Sasa-sensei teaching us," Yase Motoki said to Akatsuki Kojo, who was sitting at the back of the classroom.
"Anything is fine with me, I just want to play basketball as soon as possible." Akira Kojo didn't care at all.
"What a pity, the beautiful teacher is gone... Asagi, do you know who the new teacher is?" Yase Motoki asked Aiba Asagi on his left.
"Anything is fine with me," Asagi replied nonchalantly.
