Who? Whos that bastard is?

No one opened their mouths to Cassiuss question.

As the atmosphere subsided, Cassius rolled his eyes and opened his mouth.

No, its not because I would do something. Im just asking.

For someone who asks, your eyes are so scary.

Everyone seemed to have similar thoughts as I did, so we avoided Cassiuss eyes.

Yeah, Yerine is so popular, thats understandable.

Do you usually say that its possible while biting your teeth?

So what kind of jerk is he?

Cassius was obviously smiling brightly, but the sight of it chilled me.

I dont know because I havent seen his face. I dont even know his name.

Cassius tilted his head at my words and Erica added a word.

He gave Yerine this and ran away.

Is that so?

Then Cassius stared at the chocolate.

Its like chocolate has become his rival.

It seemed like he would calm down only if I said I didnt know if he gave it to me to confess or just to cheer on me.

Hey, Cassius, but maybe he didnt give this for confess

I cleared my voice and explained, but I had no choice but to stop talking.

Cassius snatched a handful of chocolate at a faster speed than lightning and straightened it into his mouth.

Rachel, who had eye contact with him, cried out in surprise.

Prince?

Everyone opened their mouths when they saw the sight.

Are you crazy?

I stood up and took the chocolate from Cassiuss hand and said that. And by using air magic, the chocolate was sent out of Cassius reach.

Cassius, who grabbed my arm, fixed his shining golden eyes on me still.

You dont know whats inside. So Ill try it first.

Oh, my God, but who eats so much at once?

If theres a problem, Ill eat it and get rid of it.

Cassius!

The rest of the chocolate was moved out of his reach, but the chocolate that had already been eaten was unavoidable.

Cassius chewed the chocolate and swallowed it in a frightening manner that could chew even a stone.

Honestly, its not because theres something weird in there, its because you just want to get rid of it, right?

I couldnt even speak because I was dumbfounded.

What if something goes wrong, Cassius!

Im fine. Even if I eat something weird, I get better faster than others.

I wrapped my head looking at Cassius who spoke confidently.

Im going crazy.

No matter how fast he heals himself, recklessly eats food that he doesnt even know whats in it is just too much.

It was ridiculous to do such a stupid thing for no other reason but jealousy.

Yerine, if you felt its waste for the chocolate, Ill prepare something much better.

Cassius, dont talk nonsense. Listen to me. I didnt know what was inside, so I asked Rayl to run a test on it. You cant eat it like that!

Cassius paused at the words and opened his eyes round.

Oh, did you?

Yeah! Right now, Rayls gone to get the analyzer and reagent. I didnt even have to eat chocolate in the first place. What if something really goes wrong?

Cassius replied in a crawling voice as I spoke quickly and became angry.

Im sorry..

Astra, who was staring at the scene where I was angry at Cassius, opened her mouth quietly.

But I dont think the boy put anything in it. Since its just the same as usual.

It could take time for the drugs to go affect.

Erica answered Astra in a serious voice.

Yeah, I think well have to wait until Rayl gets here. And Yerine, keep the chocolate out of the Princes hands.

As soon as Rachel finished speaking, Rayl appeared in the classroom with various tools.

Im here, kids.

Saying so, Rayl walked in with a light step.

Huh? Prince here?

Rayl rolled his emerald eyes and said with a perplexed look.

Uh, hes just passing by.

Oh, I see.

Astra spoke to Rayl, who is looking at us as if he was trying to figure out the situation.

Rayl, We told him everything. The prince knows it all, so you can just do it.

Youve been caught!?

Rayl asked in a surprised voice and lined up various reagents on the desk.

When he asked if we had been caught, we didnt answer because we had nothing to say.

Ive brought everything I can.

Yes, thank you.

I said with a nod to him.

Come on, give me the chocolate.

I waved my finger at Rayls words and brought chocolate in front of him in the corner of the classroom.

Here.

Rayl, looking inside the box of chocolates, asked with a strange face.

What? I think the amount is less than before.

The prince ate it.

Rayl opened his eyes wide at Ericas monotonous answer.

What?

The prince ate it.

At the words, Rayl looked up and down at Cassius, and Cassius scratched his cheek awkwardly.

Did you have anything unusual?

There wasnt.

Arent you getting a fever, getting cold, or getting your heart rate up?

Not at all.

Cassius, who answered briefly, glanced at the chocolate and added.

Well find out if you run a test. Well find out if there will be any problems in the future.

At Cassiuss words, Rayl looked puzzled but did not reply, and was ready for the test.

Itll be soon, Yerine, I think well get the results before lunch.

Oh, it works so fast.

After breaking some of the chocolate, he sprayed various reagents and separated each according to his own standard.

Now all I really had to do was wait for the result.

But no matter how I look at it, I dont think it had anything put in it. The prince looks so normal.

Raels words were answered by Rachel.

There is a poison that takes up to 72 hours for it to affect.

While dropping the reagent with a spoid, he closed one eye and carefully examined the reagent.

Just because you ate quickly and were okay, doesnt mean that its guaranteed that youll be fine in the future.

Rayl, words became serious. Dont make me nervous.

Astra spoke with anxious eyes, but Rayl shook his head.

Well, Im just saying it. It doesnt mean anything.

With Rayls words, everyone shut up and looked at the reagents and crushed chocolate.

About five minutes later, some samples began to change colour.

Oh, the results are out.

In Rachels voice, everyone looked at the specimen with their heads out.

Hows it going? Hows it going?

Rayl, is Cassius okay?

Wait a minute.

Rayl scrutinized each and every plate containing samples, and put down the last plate he looked at and declared.

No problem. Theres no poison in it. Its just a bar of regular chocolate.

I breathed a sigh of relief at Rayls words.

Thats a relief.

Rayl shut the lid on the open box of chocolates and returned it to me.

You can eat it, Yerine, and since the boy gave it to her. Ill give it back to Yerine.

Oh, yeah.

I picked up the box from Rayl and held it in my arms.

Thats right, Yerine, I have something to tell you about the investigation you entrusted to me last time.

Rayl said, nodding his head.

Inspection? The latest investigation was only in connection with the poison used by Leon Postade.

Did something come from the Duke of Diamonds?

Even after the death of the Postades, Rayl has been trying to investigate the path to Leon possession of poison, but so far he hasnt found anything.

I happened to be casual on the outside, but I was filled with thoughts of whether I could actually get a clue.

Oh, that. Thank you. I forgot. Lets go out and talk for a second.

Yes.

Rachel cried when she saw us two standing up.

You have to come back quickly! Class starts soon!

Yeah!

As soon as the classroom was closed, Ericas voice was heard saying, Im glad there was nothing.

We headed to the corner of the deserted hallway, and I cast an anti-eavesdropping spell in advance.

So, Rayl, whats it got? Did you get anything related to the poison that Postade used in your province?

Although he used anti-eavesdropping magic so the sound doesnt leak out, Rayl hesitated to answer.

Oh, oh, Yerine, you know.

As he looked like that, I narrowed my eyes and asked.

Why, is there something serious?

No, Im, Im sorry. I didnt call you because of that.

I asked because I was surprised by what Rayl said with a very sorry face.

Huh? Then what for?

Thats why I called you. The thing youre holding in your hand.

Rayl said, pointing his chin at the box of chocolates.

Its hard to talk in front of the kids, so Im calling you separately.

What, no way, theres really something in it?

Rayl nodded and answered me.

Uh. Its not poison, but its a pretty mischievous prank.

Prank?

So what happens to Cassius?

So what happens to Cassius? He ate a handful of that chocolate.

Aha handful must have flowed in.

Rayl let out a sigh.

I grabbed onto his shoulder and spoke urgently.

Rayl, dont drag it. Tell me quickly. Whats in it? You can make an antidote, right?

Come on, relax, Yerine, as I said before, its not a big harm to the body.

Rayl raised both hands and said reassuringly to me.

To put it simply, there was a love potion in there.

What?

I think he poured the undiluted solution in there. If it worked, there would have been at least a month of abnormalities.

I couldnt keep my mouth shut at Rayls words.

Then the guy who gave me the chocolate.

Yes, he tried to make you like him.

So what happens to Cassius? Dont you think we need to get him an antidote?

But Rayls face looked quite serene.

No, it doesnt seem necessary. Love potion usually works as soon as you take it.

Rayl turned his head and talked, looking at the window.

Face turns red, the mouth is watering, and you shout out the name of the person who put it in. If the effects of the medicine later fall, youll regret it by kicking the blanket.

But Cassius.

Yes, I dont think it worked.

Thats a relief, but

Well, anyway, so I think youd better get rid of this chocolate quietly. Thats what I was going to say.

Wow, thats really shocking.

I touched my forehead with my hand and swept my hair away.

But Rayl, who was looking at me quietly, opened his mouth again in a low voice.

But do you know some cases where the love potion doesnt work?

Huh?

His emerald eyes were fixed on me.

Theres only one.

Rayls thin lips moved.

When you already have someone you love with all your might.

Cassiuss face, which had not changed even after eating chocolate, passed by.

I remembered the beautiful golden eyes that were fixed on me.
