Haru's words undoubtedly moved both Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata greatly.
But the goal he proposed was too arduous.
Although Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata also wanted to achieve such a goal, both knew in their hearts that with their abilities, it was simply impossible.
For a moment, both became heavy-hearted.
Haru was even willing to confront Kirisu-sensei for their sake.
If they couldn't achieve such a goal, wouldn't they be letting down Haru's trust in them?
Unlike the two worried people outside, Mafuyu Kirisu's expression remained frozen for a long time.
Then she looked at Haru with a strange expression:
"Haru, the goal you proposed could indeed satisfy me."
"But please consider reality, no matter how lofty the goal."
In one week, they couldn't even break out of single digits in basic subjects like Japanese and Math.
Liberal arts, science - so many subjects, how could Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata possibly pass them all?
Passing all subjects was a very low requirement for other students.
But for Fumino Furuhashi's science and Rizu Ogata's liberal arts, it was almost impossible.
So Mafuyu Kirisu just felt that Haru was being overly passionate, completely ignoring reality.
"Kirisu-sensei, you'll persist until the midterm exam anyway even if you give up being our instructor, right?"
Haru looked straight at Mafuyu Kirisu, showing a confident smile, "Then why not give us a glimmer of hope?"
"If we can't achieve this goal, Kirisu-sensei can give up instructing us then. At that time, no one will blame Kirisu-sensei."
This goal was certainly difficult for others.
But Haru would soon obtain the [Best Tutoring] talent.
He believed he had the confidence to achieve it.
As long as he could reach that goal, he believed the bond values of both Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata would increase significantly.
Even—
"Anyway, it won't affect sensei in the slightest."
Haru looked at Mafuyu Kirisu, a hint of hidden expectation flashing in his eyes.
If he could do it, the bond value of this beautiful teacher Mafuyu Kirisu would probably increase considerably too.
Mafuyu Kirisu stared blankly at Haru at this moment, a trace of complexity showing in her beautiful eyes:
"Haru, wasting one's talent and spending precious time on boring dreams."
"When you're young, you might not think much of it, but when you grow up and feel regret, it'll be too late."
Haru knew Mafuyu Kirisu was talking about her own experience and was about to speak—
But Mafuyu Kirisu looked deeply at Haru and continued:
"I am such an example."
"That's why I know that if Furuhashi-san and Ogata-san continue like this, they will definitely head toward a tragic ending."
Outside the door, both Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata showed expressions of surprise.
They never expected that this supremely stern teacher who made them feel afraid, Kirisu-sensei, had once experienced the same thing as them.
It just seemed that Mafuyu Kirisu obviously regretted it now.
That's why she didn't want the same tragedy to happen to them.
For a moment, both felt their emotions become complicated.
Somewhat ashamed.
They had originally thought that Mafuyu Kirisu was interfering with their dreams too callously, without consideration for their feelings.
But they hadn't thought that Mafuyu Kirisu actually just didn't want them to face tragedy.
Both Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata knew they had misunderstood Mafuyu Kirisu and secretly regretted their previous intense attitude toward her.
But even so, they still didn't want to change their dreams.
So what if they regretted it later? That was still their life to live.
"Haru."
Mafuyu Kirisu had now opened her heart, and her tone had become much more gentle.
It was like talking to a friend.
Her beautiful eyes looked directly into Haru's eyes, asking with a profound gaze:
"Even knowing that they will encounter an unfortunate future, do you still want to persist in helping them and letting them continue?"
Outside the door, Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata couldn't help but prick up their ears again.
They wanted to know Haru's answer.
Haru met Mafuyu Kirisu's gaze directly.
Without any retreat.
Without any hesitation.
"Kirisu-sensei." Haru didn't answer Mafuyu Kirisu directly, "You said you also experienced such things."
"Then, I want to ask you, during that period when you persisted in your dreams, if you also had a classmate like me, would you have wanted me to support your dreams or persuade you to change them?"
This question stumped Mafuyu Kirisu.
She really wanted to say that she would definitely want that person to persuade her to change.
But feeling Haru's sincerity at this moment, she knew she couldn't say such self-deceptive words.
She certainly knew how difficult her situation was when she persisted in her dreams and abandoned her talent.
It was even much harder than Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata's current situation.
After all, at least Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata had each other for support.
But she only had herself at that time, yet she still persisted.
Eventually, she gave up the dazzling aura of being a genius figure skater and became a teacher.
If she had met someone like Haru at that time.
Then...
Mafuyu Kirisu pressed her lips together.
She remained silent for a long time.
Finally, she raised her head and looked deeply at Haru:
"Since you insist, I'll give you this chance."
"But if you can't do it, don't expect me to show mercy."
Giving Haru a chance was already the biggest concession Mafuyu Kirisu could make.
She didn't believe Haru had any possibility of accomplishing what he said—making Fumino Furuhashi pass all science subjects and Rizu Ogata pass all liberal arts subjects.
When Haru couldn't complete it, she absolutely wouldn't make any more concessions.
But at least for now, she decided to give Haru hope.
Because this was the reward Haru's counter-question deserved.
[Ding, your bond value with Mafuyu Kirisu has increased to 70]
At this moment, a notification sounded in Haru's mind.
"It increased by 20 points all at once."
Haru was somewhat surprised.
He hadn't expected that Mafuyu Kirisu's bond value either had no fluctuation or such a large fluctuation.
"I've hit the jackpot."
A smile appeared on Haru's face.
It wasn't in vain that he risked offending Mafuyu Kirisu by saying those words.
He looked at Mafuyu Kirisu and smiled slightly: "Thank you, Kirisu-sensei."
Mafuyu Kirisu, sitting properly behind her desk, began organizing the documents on her desk.
Under her cherry-colored hair, that cold face had returned to its usual state.
Not as aggressive as before, but also not as gentle toward Haru as earlier.
As if her relationship with Haru had returned to an ordinary state.
"You may go."
She didn't look up at Haru but spoke to dismiss him.
"Goodbye, Kirisu-sensei."
Haru stood up and said farewell.
If he didn't know that his bond value had increased, seeing Mafuyu Kirisu like this, he would have thought his bond value had decreased.
His favorable impression of this kind teacher who worried herself sick for her students but wasn't good with words was growing stronger and stronger.
He still didn't want his relationship with Mafuyu Kirisu to become terrible.
Haru turned and left the classroom.
However, what he didn't expect was that as soon as he opened the door, two soft, delicate figures threw themselves at him from left and right.
