Chapter-85<*He Doesn't Have to Know*>
"Thank you" - smiled Ichika.
"If you want, I can help you too" - Cloud said calmly.
"No thanks... I'd rather have all my teeth, thanks"-replied the boy as he rolled his eyes at her.
"I think you forgot that it was thanks to my training that you managed to defeat (hopefully) Cecilia" - Cloud said with annoyance - "Ungrateful idiot"
"I know... but at the same time I have new traumas" - answered Ichika.
"If they've already stopped playing, we better continue with the training" - Rin said with annoyance - "Ichika, I want you up in less than 10 seconds or I'll force you to practice forced landing"
"Oh, come on!" - Ichika exclaimed with annoyance - "I have about 5 bruises on my face because I landed on my face on the floor"
"Maybe that way you'll learn some things... or my words will go through that thick head of yours"-Rin said as she snorted in annoyance.
"Why is everyone saying the same words to me?!" Ichika exclaimed sadly.
"Because it's 100% true" - Rin and Cloud answered at the same time with serious looks, showing that they weren't playing.
". . ." - Ichika could only sit on the ground as a depressive aura surrounded him.
"They're an interesting group…" Charles thought as he watched the boys interact, only to be surprised that Rin and Cloud had only met a few days ago.
* * * * *
"It was a good training, Ichika-san" - said Charles as he looked at the tired boy who was lying on the ground without being able to move a single finger - "You are hellish monsters... each one of you is worse than the previous one... .being Cloud something like Lucifer..."
"Thanks for the compliment"-smiled the blonde as he made a small bow.
"I wasn't serious, idiot!" - Ichika exclaimed angrily - "Ugh... whatever... I need help..."
"Do you want me to take you to your room?" Cloud asked with an innocent look.
"No... I still remember what you did last time" - Ichika said with annoyance.
"What happened?" Charles asked curiously.
"He threw me in the middle of the women's bathroom... I had to escape because at least half of them wanted my virginity"-Ichika said as he trembled with fear. He couldn't hide the terror as he remembered at least 50 bloodshot eyes staring at him like he was a delicious steak.
"Do you think it's possible to throw it in my room?" Rin asked quietly.
"Depends...what are you willing to pay?" Cloud asked with a half smile.
"I can introduce you to my cousin" - Rin replied with a smile.
"Why would you introduce me to your cousin?" Cloud asked in surprise.
"Because China wants to intertwine ties with you, the so-called Ultimate Soldier"-Rin answered seriously-"Not to mention that she is interested in you after seeing your picture... she is similar to me, only she likes bad boys "
". . ." -Cloud honestly didn't know what he really meant in this situation.
"By the way... this is her picture"- Rin said as he handed her the picture of a pretty girl with light brown hair styled in a single ponytail on the left side of her. Her big green eyes and petite body like her cousin's, made her look like a cute little animal-"Her name is Huang Luanyin"
"She really does look like you…" Cloud said as he nodded.
"You didn't have to look at her breasts to say that!" Rin exclaimed as she opened her mouth threateningly, as if he were a small cat about to launch a bite.
* * * * *
"That was fun"-said Charles as she and her roommate walked towards her room, which made her blush because she had never shared a room with a boy.
"Why are you acting so strange, Charles?" Cloud asked as she narrowed her eyes, "It's like she's a…."
"A-A?" The girl in disguise repeated as she felt her heart pounding. She was terrified at the thought of being found out so soon.
"An extremely shy person…" the boy continued as he looked in another direction so she wouldn't notice the smile he had on her face. He wouldn't admit it but it was funny to see the panic on 'Charles' face - "Don't worry, we're both GUYS...you don't have to worry about me doing something to you."
"R-Right"-assented Charles as he nodded firmly.
"Even if you were a girl, it would be a different topic" - answered the blonde as he looked directly into her beautiful eyes - "I wouldn't know if I could resist the charm of those little pink lips... that cute nose... those beautiful eyes ...that silky golden hair"
"I-I..."-Charles didn't know how to react to the words of his blond companion. She just blushed furiously as those words repeated themselves over and over in his mind.
"Of course, if you were a woman"-Cloud continued as he walked back-"It's a shame you're not and I don't play for the other team"
". . ." Charles bit his lip when he heard this as he shook his head to calm her heart which was beating uncontrollably.
"Is something wrong Charles?" Cloud asked as he gave her an innocent look.
"It's nothing"-the girl denied as her face lit up again-"I just thought I need to take a good shower when we get back to our room..."
"The bathroom is big... do you want me to come in with you so we can continue talking like the MEN we are?" Cloud asked with a smile.
"N-No!" Charles exclaimed as he shook his head.
"Right... I'm sorry my words made you so uncomfortable"-Cloud nodded as he continued walking-"By the way... don't you have a sister?"
"Ha?!" - exclaimed Charles with surprise - "Why do you say that?!"
"Because if you're that cute... I don't want to think about what your sister will be like" - Cloud said with a smile as he realized they had reached his room - "I guess I'm going to go train a little more. You can use the bathroom as much as you want"
"O-Ok" Charles agreed as he ran into the room, not noticing the smile that was present on her blond companion.
"I better stop doing that or she won't talk to me anymore"-muttered Cloud as he turned around and walked towards the gym.
Inside the room, Charles stood with her hand on her heart- "I don't think that's possible!"
She was completely sure that she hadn't shown any clues to make it clear that she wasn't a man, but a woman.
"Maybe she was just talking nonsense like guys do from time to time" Charles said to himself as he shook his head. She had read that in some countries, acting like mannered friends to joke around in the group was normal - "But... what if he really knows I'm a girl?"
Her face quickly flushed red as she recalled the words she had said to him-"P-Pervert!"
". . ." - a deep silence invaded the room while the girl walked towards the bathroom - "What should I do?"
She had a deep dilemma. If he found out she was a girl, then her mission would fail and she would have to return to France in disgrace. It was even possible that her father would force her to marry in order to expand the Company.
"Don't think about those things… Char…" the girl said to herself as she sighed regretfully, "It's quite likely that he's just teasing you for being new…"
The girl quickly went into the bathroom to relax because she really needed it.

"Hehehe~" - Tatenashi's teasing laugh resounded in the student council room.
"Does anyone else have a bad feeling?" - asked the vice president.
"You don't have to ask, Utsuho-san" - the secretary said - "It's obvious that Tatenashi-sama has something bad on her hands"
"The question is...what is she up to, Tatenashi-nyan~?" - Asked a girl with brown hair, combed in two small pigtails held by two fox-shaped brooches next to sleepy yellow eyes - "Nyaahooo~!"
"Honne-chan?!" - exclaimed Utsuho - "What are you doing here?!"
"I came to see you, Onee-chan~!" - said the girl with a smile. She was Honne Nohotoke, Utsuho's younger sister and Cloud and company's classmate, also known as 'Nohohon-san'.
"That doesn't explain why you came"-said her older sister with annoyance.
"I called her" - Tatenashi said calmly - "Don't worry, Utsuho, she hasn't done anything wrong"
"Why did you call her, Tatenashi-sama" - Utsuho said curiously. She knew that her teacher only called her sister when something important was about to happen, like when she was modifying her SI. She, along with her sister, were not only the Sarashiki sisters' childhood friends, but also her servants despite the fact that her teachers did not like them to be referred to as such.
"Because I want information about Cloud Strife" - Tatenashi said seriously.
"Kuko?" Honne just cocked her head in confusion.
"Kuko?" Tatenashi asked in confusion.
"That's what I'm telling Cloud, although I haven't been able to tell him ~"-said the girl with a smile on her face.
"Why Kuku?" her sister asked in surprise. She knew of the mania that her younger sister had for giving nicknames to people she liked.
"Because it's called Cloud~" - said Honne with a big smile - "You know~ Kumo (cloud)... Ku - Mo... Kuku!"
The girls just shook their heads at the reason for the nickname, although they had to admit that it was much cuter and more approachable than "The Tyrant".
