Chapter 447 Aize: I had no choice.

Without a doubt, the upcoming festival of Bolongin is a major event for everyone on Quanxian Shen Island.

Caihai Academy also attaches great importance to this. Not only will classes be suspended the day before the festival, but homeroom teachers of each grade will also hold class meetings to warn the students in their classes.

"Listen up, you brats, behave yourselves during the holidays. Even if you're not at school, watch your behavior. If anyone dares to fight or cause trouble outside, or gets carried away by the holiday atmosphere and does something stupid, I won't hold back."

Nangong Nayue, dressed in a Gothic Lolita outfit, stood on the podium, reciting various precautions in a cold tone, and even glared at Aize.

"Especially those troublemakers, remember to keep your distance."

This attitude is practically as if they're just about to give out Aize's ID card.

"...Do you think that if something really happens, it won't concern you?"

Aize was speechless.

He knew that in the original story, something did happen during the festival at Bolongyuan, and it happened to Nangong Nayue, with her at the center.

Aize was originally thinking about whether to stop them, so that the holiday wouldn't be ruined by certain people.

Now... he's decided to do something.

Nangong Nayue had no idea that her veiled criticism had resulted in Aize holding a grudge and issuing various warnings.

Unfortunately, during the Haruin Festival, students from Saikai Academy not only participate in the festival, but some also participate in band competitions or club-related exhibitions. Some are even recruited as laborers by booths organized by the Residents' Mutual Aid Association, while others plan to work during this period to make a fortune during the festival.

Under such circumstances, it is inevitable that some incidents related to students will occur. Therefore, the school's statement contains many points to note. In addition, Nangong Nayue herself is a homeroom teacher who loves to worry about students, which makes her much stricter than others.

Nangong Nayue even said something like that.

"I understand that some of you are itching to make a move on your crush, but don't go too far, or I'll arrest you and parade you all out."

The Haruin Festival is also a very important event for couples and those who want to be with their loved ones.

After all, classic events like the Test of Courage and the Fireworks Festival are all available during this period, along with many unique features of the Demon Realm, such as matchmaking charms and divination. This is sure to make couples and those with someone in mind eager to participate.

Anyway, as soon as Nangong Nayue said that, many people quickly lowered their heads and even shrank their necks, including Lan Yu Qiancong.

As for Aize... well, he got glared at by Nangong Nayue again.

"I don't have a lover..."

Aize wanted to mutter something like that, but he didn't.

Because everyone knows that during the festival at Bolongin Temple, he would go out with at least a number of women to participate in the festival.

Nangong Nayue clearly guessed this development, so he seemed like the one who would cause trouble first.

This left Aize speechless, but it also made him feel annoyed by Nangong Nayue's deliberate criticism, which strengthened his resolve to cause trouble.

Poor Nangong Nayue, unaware that she was already on someone's blacklist, was still rambling on and on, reciting all the precautions in one go.

After saying that, the legally-loved little girl took a sip of water, waved her lace fan, and gracefully left the classroom, causing the students in the classroom to breathe a sigh of relief and feel liberated.

Where should we go shopping then?

"Hey, do you want to come with us?"

"Okay, count me in then."

The classroom immediately became noisy as people eagerly formed teams and started making plans. Even Akatsuki Kojo, Aiba Asagi, and Yase Motoki were chatting together, clearly preparing to play together.

Just as Aize thought he was out of the picture and was about to retreat, suddenly, all the boys in his class swarmed towards him and surrounded him.

"Hey, Ai, do you have any performances planned for the Haruin Festival?"

"Want to come work with me? Our community is planning to open an open-air coffee shop, but we don't have enough staff. If you come, your wages will definitely increase."

"And for our booth sales, if you come, we'll give you a special bonus of 10%... no, 20% as your wages, how about that?"

"Don't forget about the traditional beach volleyball tournament! How about joining us to leave a refreshing sweat on the beach?"

"Wait, wait, wait! Speaking of competitions, of course we should participate in beauty pageants, right? Come on over and we'll prepare a judge's seat for you!"

"This... even if it means death, I had to come here, right?!"

A group of boys' eyes immediately lit up, but not in a dazzling way; rather, they looked like they had spotted prey, their eyes filled with a fierce light.

This scene stunned Xiaogucheng.

"Wait... what are they doing?" Xiao Gucheng said, dumbfounded. "Why are they suddenly being so enthusiastic towards that guy? I didn't know he was so popular in class?"

Upon hearing this, Yase Motoki immediately burst into laughter.

"Of course, there's an ulterior motive behind it all." Yase Motoki put his arm around Akatsuki Kojou's shoulder and said casually, "Who doesn't know that Ai spends all his time with your sister and the middle school's saintess? Those two girls are practically glued to Ai!"

"So, those guys who work part-time and prepare to host the competition can't stay calm. They're probably thinking that if they can invite Ai, then Nagisa and the saintess from the middle school might also come."

"This is a great help, whether for attracting customers or for keeping your eyes healthy."

Before Kojou Akatsuki could react, Asagi Aiba was speechless. "Seriously, those guys are just too stupid!"

Asagi looked utterly exasperated.

“That’s true for you, but for guys it’s a matter of life and death, second only to marriage.” Yase Motoki said, spreading his hands. “Leaving aside business, they themselves have some other ulterior motives.”

"You see, as long as Ai is busy working during the Bolongin Festival, he won't have time to go out intimately with the Akatsuki family's sister and the junior high school's saintess, right?"

"They don't want to be flaunted at school during the week, and then during the holidays, while they're working hard, they see someone holding flowers and going out on a date. That's the ultimate weapon against single people!"

Upon hearing this, Akatsuki Kojou, who had been speechless, instantly changed his expression.

"I see... there's such a trick!"

Xiao Gucheng's eyes suddenly reddened as if he had been inspired.

"Hey! Ai! Come work with me!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Akago charged forward.

There's no way around it, he just dotes on his younger sister like that, and can't stand seeing her shopping or dating other men!

With a "crack," the ballpoint pen in Lan Yuqian's hand was also crushed.

"That idiot...!"

Aiba Asagi, who was still hesitating about how to invite Akatsuki Kojou to go out with her, had veins bulging on her forehead and was furious.

"Alas, the task is arduous and the road ahead is long."

Yase Motoki looked at his childhood friend with some sympathy, patted her on the shoulder, and said nothing more.

Aize was unaware of the conversation between Xiaogucheng and the others, but he knew that these guys with fierce eyes who came to invite him so enthusiastically were definitely up to no good.

So he refused them all without hesitation.

"Sorry, I have plans. I don't have any work or competitions scheduled."

With a "crack," this time it was the ballpoint pens in the hands of all the boys present that were crushed.

"An appointment..."

What's the appointment?

"Could it be the Holy Maiden of the Central Region of the Kingdom?"

"Or is it Xiao's sister?"

"Hey, they're all still in middle school, don't eat so well... Ugh, you better take it easy, don't go around messing around with those younger girls!"

The boys' eyes were bloodshot as they stared at Aize.

“I can’t help it either.” Aize gave an innocent smile and said, “Nagisa said that her mother, who is rarely home, finally has some free time and she wants to introduce her to me.”

Xiao Gucheng, who rushed up from the side, immediately felt as if he had been shot in the heart, and his eyes became bloodshot.

"And then there's Yase. Her family will also come to Itogami Island during the Haruin Festival. They seem to have specifically asked to meet me, so I have no choice but to go."

This is what La Fria told Aze.

As mentioned before, the Aldeqia royal family would find an opportunity to come to Itogami Island to make some arrangements regarding Natsune Yase's reluctance to return to Japan, and this time the opportunity has come at just the right time.

The relaxed entry requirements during the Haruin Festival, along with the pretext of a major festival, present a convenient and hassle-free opportunity for the busy Aldeqia royal family to visit.

Thanks to this, La Fria had told Aze a few days earlier that he should come with them to meet his family.

However, for those who are unaware of this, it is undoubtedly a huge shock.

"Has it gotten to the point where my family specifically requests a meeting?"

"So, you've already reached the point where you're almost approved by your parents?"

"And there were two of them?"

"What a beast!"

Tears began to stream from the boys' bloodshot eyes.

"W-Why didn't Nagisa tell me about this? When did Mom say she wanted to see Aize? Why didn't she tell me about something this big...!?"

Xiaogu City's defenses were breached, and he felt like his whole body was cracking open.

"I will not admit it!"

The brother who had a crush on his sister let out a scream that sounded like he was vomiting blood, and looked at Aize as if he were looking at an enemy.

After thoroughly provoking his ill-intentioned classmates, Aize left the classroom with a satisfied look on his face, chasing after Nangong Nayue in the direction she had gone...
