Chapter 407: Chapter 407: Herta: ”What do you mean, ’not bad’?”

It was nearly noon before Su Ran finally woke up.

Not because he woke naturally—but because the nonstop notifications on his phone dragged him out of bed.

Even Kitsune Saiguu, who had come back for a second nap, was annoyed by the constant buzzing.

She simply pulled the blanket over her head.

The endless message notifications were enough to drive anyone crazy.

Still, there were almost no people bold enough to spam Su Ran like this.

There was only one person he could think of.

Herta.

And sure enough...

every single one of those messages had come from Herta.

Originally, Su Ran had planned to give her a good scolding.

But after opening the messages...the irritation in his heart took on an entirely different meaning.

Maintaining what he called a ”critical attitude,” he examined every photo Herta had sent.

In the end, he came to one conclusion.

Herta’s got quite the figure...

Why didn’t I notice before?

Then he remembered.

He’d never actually seen Herta’s real body.

Not even a photograph.

Critical inspection aside, the outfits Herta was wearing looked strangely familiar.

Especially their designs.

Glancing at Kitsune Saiguu, who was still hiding beneath the blankets, he immediately figured out what had happened.

Why are you wearing Kitsune Saiguu’s clothes?

Were the styles even the same?

At least Kitsune Saiguu’s outfits had been tailored to her measurements.

As for Herta...he didn’t even know her measurements before she’d put them on.

Herta: Pretty?

Su Ran: You tried on every outfit?

Looking at the photos Herta had sent, he was genuinely surprised.

He’d only placed the order last night.

She’d already received the package...and changed into everything?

That was absurdly fast.

Herta: I asked whether they look good!

Su Ran: ...Not bad.

Those three casual words—

”Not bad.”

Instantly infuriated Herta.

What kind of answer is that?!

He’d finally seen her real appearance, and all she got was ”not bad?”

Just how high were his standards?

Even she herself only qualified as ”not bad?”

Herta: Either your eyes are broken, or your sense of beauty is.

Herta: I’m this gorgeous, and all you can say is ”not bad?”

Even Ruan Mei would lose herself admiring Herta’s beauty.

Yet Su Ran’s evaluation was unbelievably bland.

Herta couldn’t accept it.

Herta: Come to the Blue Planet.

Herta: I’d like to see whether you’ll really stay completely unmoved when you’re facing the ”not bad” me in person.

She was genuinely indignant.

Herta had never once doubted her own appearance.

Su Ran’s evaluation felt like a tremendous insult.

She absolutely refused to accept it.

I ought to lock him in a little black room and properly reeducate him!

Su Ran: I’m in post-nut clarity right now.

Su Ran: Once I recover, I’ll properly appreciate your beauty.

Su Ran: For now, let’s leave it at that.

Herta: ???

On the Blue Planet, Herta stared blankly at the message she’d just received.

”’Post-nut clarity?’”

”Did something happen to his brain?”

”He spends every day surrounded by girls he supposedly finds merely ’not bad.’”

”And now that he’s finally seen my real body...”

”This is all the reaction I get?”

”Does he even know how to appreciate beauty?”

”If not...”

”I’ll have Ruan Mei grow him a new pair of eyes.”

Then she looked down at the outfit she was currently wearing.

”Tsk.”

”So he isn’t exactly some gentleman after all.”

”As expected...”

”He does have designs on me.”

”Otherwise...”

”Why would he send me clothes like these?”

Herta nodded in satisfaction.

Then she looked around at the room, now littered with clothes.

She’d already tried on every single one.

Herta: Some of these sizes don’t fit very well.

Herta: I’ll send you my measurements.

Herta: Next time, don’t buy the wrong size.

Su Ran: OK!

So someone had intercepted the package.

Fine.

It wasn’t even his money that had paid for it.

Herta wearing clothes she’d effectively bought with her own money...

What was the problem?

Still...

”She’s being way too direct.”

”She seriously doesn’t care at all?”

Herta’s personality might be terrible, but she was still a woman.

She ought to have some sense of dignity.

Yet whenever she dealt with him, wasn’t she just a little too open?

Even Jingliu would still call him a shameless flirt.

Meanwhile, Herta’s attitude practically amounted to saying, ”I’m already yours.”

”What do you mean, ’too direct?’”

Kitsune Saiguu poked her head out from beneath the blankets.

The more she slept, the sleepier she became.

If Su Ran hadn’t started talking, she would’ve already drifted back asleep.

”There’s a beautiful woman trying to seduce me.”

Saiguu blinked.

”And what do you think about that beautiful woman?”

Naturally, she assumed Su Ran was talking about her.

Who else could it possibly be?

There wasn’t another woman in the room.

”I’d planned on sleeping a bit longer.”

”But, unfortunately...”

”My post-nut clarity ended up getting completely ruined by that beautiful woman.”

Meanwhile, Chiyo had spent the morning outside, carefully reviewing everything she’d learned the previous day.

Thinking about how Ayaka had been taken away by Jingliu, she couldn’t help feeling worried.

She looked toward Su Ran’s room.

Why is my teacher waking up later than I am?

Is he losing interest in teaching me?

If this continued, she really was afraid she’d lose to an Ayaka who had trained for only one month.

After all, Ayaka’s teacher was clearly far more responsible than hers.

”...Could it be...”

”...that he’s disappointed in me?”

Chiyo’s heart suddenly sank.

Surely...

she wasn’t actually being disliked?

Even if her figure wasn’t quite as impressive as Kitsune Saiguu’s, she’d once been one of the greatest beauties in all of Inazuma City.

Back then, who had dared compete with her in terms of beauty?

Not even Kitsune Saiguu had.

Feeling somewhat neglected, Chiyo became a little dejected.

Only after lunch did she finally see Su Ran leisurely arrive.

But the very first thing she noticed was something else entirely.

Why does he smell so strongly of Kitsune Saiguu?

Did she lick him all over or something?

As an oni, her sense of smell was exceptionally keen.

”...Benefactor...”

”Did you... dry yourself with Kitsune Saiguu’s fur after your bath?”

she asked suspiciously.

”More or less.”

”Anyway...”

”Take today off.”

”Once I’ve finished making your cheat...”

”you’ll be able to cruise straight to victory.”

Su Ran stretched his body.

He couldn’t help sighing.

Kitsune Saiguu really was an enchantress.

White-haired fox ladies really were wonderful.
