Chapter 331: Avoiding Dangerous Actions
"..."
Faced with the question, Kaguya couldn't continue the conversation.
Could it be that she wanted to reveal the fact that she had actually decided to jump because of Shizuku's identity?
She couldn't utter words like that no matter how hard she tried, right?
As for what Ren said about not having ill intentions towards her, can it be said that he was unaware of her suspicion and distrust towards him?
Kaguya harbored hatred towards him from the beginning.
After hesitating, Kaguya made a decision and planned to tell everything so that he knew what kind of person she was, to eliminate the fact that Ren thought she was a good person, and to make him give up the idea of being friends with her.
"I'm sorry..."
But when those words escaped her lips, Kaguya couldn't say it; in the end, she could only offer an apology.
She didn't want the gentle Ren to know that she was actually indifferent.
Kaguya deeply regretted it.
"It's okay."
Although he didn't know what Kaguya was apologizing for, Ren unconsciously replied.
"About being friends, you should reconsider." Kaguya said slowly. "We're not suitable to be friends."
"But haven't we already become friends?" Ren asked confusedly.
He had just agreed to her request to be friends, so they were already friends now.
"We're friends?"
Kaguya was stunned and couldn't react for a moment.
"Yes." Ren nodded.
"Alright."
After hearing his confirmation, Kaguya struggled within herself for a while and finally accepted this reality.
She had just become friends with him; there was nothing to worry about.
Just like Chika, isn't she also her friend?
Now there's just another friend, so it won't affect her at all.
Not at all.
"School is almost over. I'm leaving. Goodbye."
After drinking tea, Ren checked the time and found that school was almost over, so he stood up and bid farewell.
"See you."
In this case, Kaguya had no intention of staying and saying goodbye.
······
After leaving the student council room, Ren put on his glasses and headed straight to his class. If he returned now, he should have arrived by the end of school.
Sure enough, as he reached Class B's door, the school bell rang.
Seeing the teacher exiting the class, Ren entered from the back door.
"Kamikawa-san, what happened to you?"
Upon entering the class, Itsuki, still packing her school bag, immediately noticed him. Seeing the sports uniform he was wearing, she inquired.
She was initially puzzled because Ren didn't return to class all afternoon. Now she finally waited for him to return and found that he had even changed his clothes. How could she not care?
Seeing Ren enter from the back door, Gabriel, still slowly packing her things, stopped packing and approached.
Gabriel asked, "What were you doing this afternoon?"
At the same time, Fumino, Rizu, and Vigne also gathered and asked various questions about why Ren didn't come in the afternoon.
Seeing them all very curious, Ren had no choice but to tell them what happened today afternoon, answering their doubts.
Of course, regarding Kaguya's part, Ren only said that he and she spent the whole afternoon chatting in the student council room but didn't mention the specifics.
"Kamikawa, are you okay?"
After listening to his story, Vigne became concerned about Ren.
"It's okay." Ren replied gently.
"Isn't it dangerous to jump into the lake to save someone?" Gabriel stared at his clothes and confirmed with a low voice to Fumino and the others.
"Accidents causing two people to drown at the same time can easily happen." Fumino answered honestly.
"..."
Pouting, Gabriel looked at him with a much more serious gaze.
After answering their questions, Ren returned to his seat and packed his things.
After he packed his things, he left the class with Itsuki and the others as usual and headed towards the school entrance.
But what was different from the past was that this time Gabriel followed behind him.
As soon as they left the teaching building, Gabriel suddenly grabbed the hem of his clothes, her sudden movement naturally attracting Ren's attention.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Gabriel with her head down, Ren asked with a little confusion.
"Why would you save someone?" Gabriel raised her head. "It's very dangerous, do you know?"
"It's not dangerous for me." Ren explained.
He was a person with superpowers; he just jumped into the pond to save someone, so it was not dangerous at all.
"It's not okay. If something like this happens again next time, you're not allowed to go. Just tell me directly." Gabriel's tone was very firm.
Ren was just an ordinary person; jumping into the pond to save someone else was very dangerous. What if something happened?
Gabriel was just an ordinary angel now, but she didn't have the ability to resurrect people.
"Why?"
There was no need to tell Gabriel about something so easy for him, right?
Although she was an angel, she couldn't be stronger than him.
"There's no reason, just that you're not allowed to go." Saying that, Gabriel released her hold on the hem of his clothes.
"There are many people now. I'll discuss something else with you when I get home."
"Okay." Ren agreed.
Then, he separated from Gabriel and went home with Itsuki and the others.
"Gabriel, what's wrong with you?"
Not long after Ren left, Raphiel came and asked with a little hesitation.
Seeing that it was Raphiel, Gabriel briefly explained Ren's rescue.
"I see."
After listening, Raphiel understood why Gabriel looked so frightened.
She worried that something would happen to Ren.
Moreover, Gabriel still didn't know that Ren was actually an Esper, so it's no wonder she was worried.
Thinking about this, Raphiel felt very happy.
This feeling that only she knew was really good.
"Why are you laughing?" Seeing Raphiel's cheerful smile, Gabriel suddenly felt that something was wrong.
In such a situation, she smiled happily; there must be something wrong.
"I just remembered something that made me happy." Raphiel explained casually.
"Do you think I'll believe this explanation?"
