"It's been a long time since the two sisters were together. To be honest, I quite like this combination."
"Pervert."
"Exactly, he actually likes sisters."
"What's wrong? This is just how I am. You'll have to endure it whether you can or not!"
"Ah~"
For a moment, the room was filled with laughter, but soon the laughter turned into strange tones.
——————
"The sea!"
"Ya-woo-ya!~"
"It's the beach!"
"It's youth!"
Standing at the boundary between the sea and the beach, a group of people put their hands to their mouths, making a trumpet shape, shouting freely at the ocean. And with them, doing the same, were the people from Polar Star Dormitory and some students whose homes were in the inner city.
Sunlight, beach, sea.
Watermelon, iced cola, ice cream, snacks.
Parasols, picnic blankets, lounge chairs, lifebuoys, swimsuits.
All sorts of elements made up the beach. Beautiful sights that made one tremble were everywhere, a vast expanse of white, broad and deep, that's the sea.
Opening his arms to embrace the beauty of the sea, Hoshino Sora was just about to go for a swim when Erina Nakiri grabbed the back of his clothes: "Alright, gather."
"Eh, my swim..."
Because it happened so suddenly, Hoshino Sora's body couldn't help but retreat. Erina Nakiri walked along, holding a loudspeaker, shouting to the surroundings.
"The first semester's final exam is about to begin. Based on this final exam, second-year students have been divided into three routes: sea, mountain, and river. You will be taking the sea route exam.
However, because I need to inspect all routes, I have asked the academy's instructor to supervise and inspect. Instructor Suzuki, please."
As she spoke, Erina stopped. A fair-skinned young man walked up beside her. It must be said that this guy's skin was truly very white, perfectly inheriting Azami Nakiri's pale complexion, to the point of making women jealous.
However, Hoshino Sora didn't like this color; it was a sickly pale, looking very unhealthy. In comparison, Alice's white was just right, delicate like mutton-fat jade.
"Hello everyone, I am Instructor Suzuki. I usually teach first-year students, so this is my first time meeting all of you. Please take care of me."
It must be said that fair skin plus good looks were both bonus points, and compared to Hoshino Sora's aloofness, Instructor Suzuki had a sense of amiability about him.
"So handsome!"
"He's so young, by the way."
This kind of aura instantly caused a stir among the surrounding girls. The girls clasped their hands together, their faces slightly flushed. They found it really hard to resist such a handsome teacher who was slightly older than them!
"This teacher is quite popular among the first-years. His cooking skills are indeed good, and his lessons are very easy to understand. However, I personally think he's still a bit behind Hoshino-kun."
Looking at Hoshino Sora's subtle expression, Shiina Mahiru slowly explained. At this moment, she was standing behind him. Regarding this mysterious instructor in front of her, she had heard from junior members of her club that those junior students had an almost worshipful attitude towards him.
At the end, noticing that Hoshino Sora might be a bit displeased, Shiina Mahiru added another sentence, but she was also telling the truth, because in her heart, this man in front of her was indeed not as good as Hoshino Sora.
"Well, how did I get dragged into this?"
Looking at the man standing beside Erina Nakiri, he found that the other party was also looking at him. A bad atmosphere permeated the air. Regarding Shiina Mahiru's words, Hoshino Sora just responded indifferently, without much comment.
He knew that too many words would lead to mistakes.
"So, what everyone on the sea route needs to do is operate a beach stall. This time, we've specially borrowed the beach pavilion. Starting today, for three days, everyone will operate a restaurant in teams of ten."
"Restaurant? Uh... what about the time for ingredient procurement and preparation?"
In the crowd, Sakaki Ryoko asked the question, her brows furrowed in confusion.
"Of course, that's included within these three days. If you spend too much time, be careful that the time for serving customers will become less and less."
"Including preparation time, huh."
"It feels like it's going to be very tough."
Upon hearing Instructor Suzuki's words, the scene immediately erupted in a flurry of discussions. Everyone's faces showed melancholy, as this sounded like a task that would not be easy to complete.
"Failure to achieve it will result in a failing grade, receiving an F. The passing condition is a turnover of three million by 7 PM the day after tomorrow. The faster you achieve the goal, the higher your score."
"Eh, that's impossible!"
"No way!"
"What should we do?!"
"Oh no!"
Upon hearing the passing conditions, the people on site instantly lost their composure. For a moment, there was constant noise and wails everywhere, all complaining about the strictness of the assessment.
