Chapter 197: A Double Date!?

[This chapter is dedicated to Zeno98 for being a generous giver of gifts last month of June! Thank you so much for the support, amore mio! Ti amo! <3 Mwah!]

Whispers of the prying students echoed across the Great Hall. Aranea and Leonel exchanged gazes, waiting for Elenea's reply.

"Will you go on a date with me…?" Vayne asked, his voice now smaller as compared to earlier.

"I'm glad he took a hint," Zann exclaimed. 

It was true. His seemingly-loud 'will you go on a date with me' garnered so much unwarranted attention, and that was the last thing this group needed right now.

Elenea bit her lips, looking around at the students around her. They were subtly waiting for her response. She felt dizzy from the eyes fixated around her. She couldn't help but swallow several times before she could answer Vayne.

"S-sure," with Elenea's single word, Vayne's blue eyes brightened. 

"Really!?" Vayne beamed.
