Bab 61: Ayakashi Shrine

The Ayakashi Shrine found itself in an unusual situation as Oliver, a rare male trainee teacher, stepped onto its hallowed grounds. A group of female scholars gathered to discuss this anomaly, their hushed voices filled with curiosity and intrigue.

Hana, a bookish scholar with glasses, leaned in and said, "Did you hear about Oliver? He's the first man to join as a trainee teacher here. I wonder what he's like. I also heard that he was some kind of a foreigner to our lands."

Yuki, a mischievous scholar, smirked and replied, "Oh, I've heard a thing or two. Some say he's quite charming and attractive. But there are rumours that he came here from the empire because he was expelled from there"

Sakura, a more reserved scholar, chimed in, "Well, that's all well and good, but he's still just a trainee. He'll have to earn our respect like anyone else."
