Title: Is That Curse Actually a Good or Bad Thing?

Yukino and Gabriel exited the house. After closing the door, Gabriel looked at Yukino.

“Yukinoshita-san, is that right?”

Yukino liked Gabriel very much. In her, she could find all the beautiful virtues that humans dreamed of.

Humble, generous, friendly, kind...

Just by looking at Gabriel, she could feel all this goodness emanating from her.

For Yukino, whose heart was somewhat complicated, Gabriel’s aura was truly too beautiful. Just being by her side, she felt her soul would be purified.

“Yes, Tenma-san, is there something wrong? Would you like to drop by my house for a moment?”

Having just moved in, she had already given her and Shinnosuke a welcoming gift, truly too polite. She also had to prepare a return gift.

“That would be troubling. Coincidentally, there are some things I’d like to talk about with Yukinoshita-san.”

“Just call me Yukino. May I call you Gabriel?”

“Of course.”

Gabriel was very petite, looking more like a doll than Eriri. Just by looking at Gabriel, people had the urge to hug her.

Arriving at her room, Gabriel also noticed that Yukino’s room was much larger than hers and Shinnosuke’s. It seemed that if Shinnosuke’s and her room were combined, their size would be exactly the same as Yukino’s.

“What is it you wanted to see me about? Gabriel.”

“Yukinoshita-san, do you know that there’s a residual curse on your body?”

Yukino: !

Yukino had never expected Gabriel to talk to her about this. How did she know?

“A strange residual yokai power, it won’t have any influence on you normally, it’s just that under certain conditions it will turn you into a cat, and it will make some parts of your body sensitive.”

“If you want, I can help you remove this curse.”

“Gabriel-san, are you an exorcist?”

‘Blonde hair and blue eyes, and having lived in Europe, she’s definitely not an onmyoji. Maybe Gabriel-san learned exorcism from nuns in a church?’

“It can also be understood that way. How about it, Yukinoshita-san, would you like me to help you remove this curse?”

Gabriel didn’t sense any resentment from Yukino. She must be a very good child, so she was willing to help her.

Remove this curse? Yukino realized that she wasn’t very interested.

For her right now, wasn’t this curse not entirely bad?

At least Shinnosuke liked her very much when she turned into a cat, and she also quite enjoyed it...

Shinnosuke’s skill in petting cats and dogs was superb, easily able to make her happy to the point of being unable to think.

“No need, Gabriel-san. This curse has a very important meaning for me, but thank you anyway.”

“I see.”

Gabriel nodded, not feeling anything was wrong. After all, the curse on Yukino was just a residue; besides being able to turn her into a cat, there were no other influences.

“In that case, please live your life well, Yukino. Many wonderful things pass quickly, please make good use of them.”

“Then I’ll go back first, I still have to tidy up my room and study for tomorrow’s lessons.”

After confirming that Yukino didn’t want to remove her curse, Gabriel got up and said goodbye.

After seeing Gabriel off, Yukino sat on the sofa, looking at the somewhat empty room and feeling a little melancholic. She somewhat wanted to turn into a cat. If she turned into a cat, wouldn’t she be able to make Shinnosuke hug her while sleeping?

Yukino was already somewhat addicted to her cat identity; it seemed she couldn’t go back anymore.

“Ahem ahem, we have a transfer student joining our class today.”

Shizuka came into the classroom and put down her lesson plan, then looked at everyone in the class very seriously.

“Ah? A transfer student? Isn’t it just the beginning of the semester?”

“That’s right, usually in anime and novels, don’t new characters only join in the middle or end to move the plot forward? We clearly just started school!”

“Alright! Everyone be quiet! Tenma-san, please come in.”

After Shizuka finished speaking, Gabriel pushed the door open and entered.

The previously noisy classroom immediately fell silent after Gabriel entered.

“Hello everyone, my name is Gabriel White Tenma, I hope we can all get along in the future.”

Because she was too perfect, Gabriel seemed to radiate a golden light.

“P-princess!”

“Angel! This new student is like an angel!”

Kazama was even shocked by Gabriel. He hadn’t expected this new student to be so cute!

“Kazama, what do you think of Gabriel-san?”

“S-so beautiful! And looks smart? Like a princess in a European fairy tale...”

“Kazama actually likes this type, huh? I prefer more mature ones.”

“What do you know! Shin-chan, the cute ones... no! It’s none of your business what type of girl I like!”

Kazama seemed to like the cute type and wasn’t very interested in the mature type.

Gabriel’s seat was next to Yukino. After sitting down, she smiled at Yukino and began to study seriously.

Yesterday, Eriri invited her to play games together, but Gabriel refused because she was too busy. But they had both promised to try together tonight.

‘I heard Sawamura-senpai will also invite that Nohara-kun. It seems entertainment and socialization in the human world can’t be separated from computers, huh? I’ll learn about it today.’

Kazama glanced at Gabriel, feeling that this beautiful girl was truly too perfect, perfect to the point that people couldn’t have the slightest evil thought, like a magical girl cute p, like a character that only existed in film and television works.

‘Forget it, it’s better to study hard first. The competition at Shuchi’in Academy is too fierce, and my tutoring lately has been a bit lazy.’

Thinking of this, Kazama glanced at Shinnosuke again. That kid also didn’t need to worry about studying. His kendo talent was very high, no need to worry about academic grades at all.

Gabriel easily blended into the class; there were no problems with not getting along at all. Everyone in the class liked Gabriel very much. During break time, everyone crowded around her and chatted.

In response to everyone’s greetings, Gabriel was also very polite.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

Time quickly arrived at noon. Shinnosuke looked at Kazama.

“Kazama, want to eat lunch together?”

“You brought lunch today?”

“Ai prepared it for me, want to eat together?”

“I knew it...”

No matter what Kazama said, he wouldn’t believe Shinnosuke prepared his own lunch. This guy was too lazy.

“Megumi, do you want to join us too?”

Shinnosuke noticed that Megumi also came to class, carrying two lunch boxes.

“Okay, but this lunch box is for Tenma-san.”

“Ah? I get a share too?!”

Gabriel on the side was worried; she had forgotten about lunch. Having just moved in, she hadn’t prepared any food ingredients. She hadn’t expected Megumi to even prepare lunch for her!

“Tenma-san probably didn’t have time to prepare, right? I just made one for you while I was at it, want to eat together?”

“That would be troubling.”

“Let’s go, Ai must be waiting for us.”

Shinnosuke led the way; several people headed together towards the room specially prepared by Ai.
