Chapter 210: Tundere Is Awesome
"Don’t move."
The hero, with a blank expression, commanded the villain to stop their actions, then swiftly took away the magic device.
The villain suddenly became agitated, trembling with anger all over.
"Let go!"
"No."
The hero firmly refused and then focused on studying intently.
Even though not the first time encountering it, seeing it so directly was truly a first, the curious cat, once grabbing hold of something, won’t let go easily.
"Meow."
Emilia examined the magic device from top to bottom, seemed to have discovered something, gestured, then tilted her head.
"It can transform, very peculiar."
"My magic device is not a toy, quickly get your paws off it!"
"Tundere, listen to me the other way around!"
"No way! Let go! Thief cat! I’ll say it one last time, you’re in big trouble!"
"Meow~"
。。。
This lesson requires a lot of effort to complete the alchemy experiment assessment.
Although Emilia is not good at studying, Teacher Rin keeps scolding her, but her curiosity about chemical reactions in alchemy is unmatched.
First, wash the roots and stems of the herbs carefully, don’t use cold water, as it may cause the outer skin to shrink and affect the following experiments.
It’s best to use warm water to clean the top of the roots and stems of the herbs, carefully circling along the ridges to ensure no dirt or mud.
Once the cleaning is done, it’s time for the next step.
Emilia turned off the spray head temporarily and took out her textbook to look at it.
Rin was surprised and stared at the book in her hand, "You… you’re actually cheating?! Where did you get the book?!"
"From the bookshelf, I took it."
Emilia didn’t see anything wrong with using a book for reference, replied, and then flipped through a few pages to compare.
Next is…
Huh?
Emilia looked at the illustrations in the book, feeling a bit confused.
According to the instructions, the medicinal properties inside the roots are very unstable. If cut directly, they will quickly dissipate.
The best way is to suck it out with the mouth, because the human body temperature and saliva have a great protective effect on the medicinal properties.
The key point is, absolutely do not bite through the herb, as it will cause the medicinal effect to dissipate quickly.
At first, Teacher Rin was very displeased with Emilia for cheating on the exam.
It wasn’t until he saw Emilia handling the herbs carefully and attentively that he was completely speechless by her dedication.
As a teacher, being intimidated by a student’s determination left Rin feeling a bit humiliated, but then he felt his heart and mind melting.
Emilia has exceptional talent in handling herbs.
Anyone who has seen her eat ice cream would know that the Slime’s ability to eat in a calm and leisurely manner is far beyond what most people can achieve.
The herbs were handled properly at the time, and after a while, the potion was extracted.
Emilia furrowed her brow, curiously tasted it, and found it not as bad as she had imagined, so she relaxed her brow temporarily.
Looking at Rin, who was frozen and motionless as if he had lost his soul, Emilia closed the book, picked up the sprayer again after a moment of thought.
。。。
When Rin recovered from his daze, he didn’t even know how he got back to bed.
But he felt something strange in the extra space.
Turning his head, he saw Emilia still holding his cat’s tail, curiously playing with it.
Rin suddenly swished her tail, pulled away from her hand, and then reached out to pinch Hero Meow’s face.
"Are you trying to rebel? Do you want to oppose me?"
"Just, thinking, going further, tundere, painful."
"Today, I’m going to squash your face! Don’t you know you can’t touch other people’s things without permission! What’s wrong with you!?"
Thinking back to the previous scene, Rin felt a surge of panic and exerted more force.
"Hurts, meow, but, tundere, also, doesn’t object."
"Alright then, still want to blame it on me!"
Rin grabbed Hero Meow’s cheeks, kneading them up and down, left and right. Seeing Waste Hero’s eyes squinting from the pain, she felt slightly relieved.
Anyway… this isn’t the first time, last time it was the Lord Demon King who intervened.
He was quite upset because he had turned into a cat and couldn’t control his body.
When he let go, Emilia covered her cheeks, pitifully rubbed them, but her deep blue eyes kept glancing at him.
"What are you looking at."
Rin reached out as if to grab something, and said grumpily, "Do you want your face to turn into a bun?"
"No… I mean, no matter how you look at it, this Rin, is very cute, very great."
"！"
Rin felt all jumpy, not happy but rather feeling his embarrassed toes almost poking a hole through the bedsheet.
To hide his embarrassment, he lunged directly at Waste Hero, growling.
"You know I’m at my wits’ end right now, yet you still say such disgusting things, I’m definitely going to teach you a lesson today!"
Miss Hero seemed to think that without calming Rin down, she didn’t know what he might do, so she did not resist.
Easily overpowered by him, Rin did not hesitate to pinch her face again.
However, as soon as he pinched her cheek, he felt something was off.
Whether it was their current position or state…
Oh, he… he doesn’t have candy coating!
Realizing this, Rin was startled, looking at Waste Hero who was so close, his breathing hitched, his heart pounding wildly.
Emilia blinked her blue eyes, innocently letting out a "meow".
Her flawless delicate face, radiated with a soft halo under the light, showing an innocent look of not understanding anything, yet in such a stance…
Rin felt a unsettling possessiveness, as if something else, gradually swelling in his heart.
When he let go of her hand, he gently touched her face.
He was not only a unique hero in the world, the hope to save the world, but also one of his closest and most trusted people.
So close and trusting, even with such an extraordinary relationship, both of them could accept it gladly.
At that moment, Rin suddenly realized that the transformation of friendship… had turned into something he liked as he had imagined.
Although he didn’t know what she thought, he was very clear about the emotions he was feeling.
In an instant, there was a sudden realization, as if he had pushed open a new door from confusion.
Perhaps… this is, love?
This was something he had thought about before, but subconsciously avoided due to confusion and doubts, now becoming clear.
No… this can’t be happening.
He has no experience in this at all.
Love and such things, are so scary, no, there must be something wrong there.
Rin felt uneasy, shook his head, looked at Waste Hero again, but was drawn in by her blue crystal-like eyes, and lowered his head involuntarily.
