3rd POV

Naomi has no schedule to do as the Manager of Akasa Inc. today, so she went to school. She changed her clothes to her school uniform in her room and went downstairs after she was ready. Waiting for Naomi in the hallway was Hotaru, she wears a white shirt and black suit like a business lady.

“What are you doing here, Miss Nobi?” Asked Naomi when she saw Hotaru stood in the hallway.

“Waiting for you~ I am your bodyguard after all.” Said Hotaru as she saluted to Naomi and smiled.

“When I am on my official duty, right now I am going to school. So you don’t need to guard me.” Naomi took her shoes and wears them.

Hotaru put down her salute and approached Naomi from behind. She hugged Naomi and said. “It doesn’t matter, the Director said that I need to guard you 24/7. So we will be together from now on~”

Naomi made an expression that said ‘Are you kidding me?’. She tried to shake off Hotaru’s hug and exited the house.

“You don’t need to guard me 24/7, from sunrise until sunset is enough.” Naomi walked out of her house and went to school.

“Ah! I will do it like that.” Said Hotaru as she followed Naomi. “Where is your school? I can take you there in an instant. I can teleport right away if you told me the location.” Hotaru stopped in front of Naomi and offered Naomi as she made a peace sign with her hand.

“I refuse, I will stand out if you teleport me there.” Naomi circling Hotaru and walked again.

“Boo~ If your schoolmate saw me following you around you will stand out either way!” Hotaru said while pouting her cheeks.

Naomi stopped on her track and think about it.

‘That’s true, if she follows me everywhere I will stand out. Meanwhile, if she teleported me there and let her stood quietly behind the classroom it will be better. I will forbid her from entering my school.’ Naomi thought as she turned to Hotaru and said.

“If you insist, take me in front of my school only. I won’t allow you to enter the school ground. Understand, Miss Nobi?” Said Naomi seriously.

“Hmm, I won’t enter your school as a bodyguard. Don’t worry about it.” Hotaru put her right hand on her waist and extended her left hand to Naomi. “Let’s go.”

Naomi took her left hand and said. “I’m in your care.”

Hotaru nodded and ask. “So…” Naomi looked at Hotaru confused. She said let’s go but she didn’t teleport, is something wrong? Or she could not teleport Naomi because of the power difference?

“… Where is your school?” Hotaru scratched her cheeks as she said that.

Naomi couldn’t hold back her sigh and let it out. She shook her head and took out her holo phone opening the map. She gives a marker on the map and let Hotaru saw it.

“Here.”

“Okay! Just close your eyes to avoid getting dizzy from teleportation.” Said Hotaru.

“OK, I’m ready.” Naomi did as Hotaru had said and closed her eyes.

As if, Naomi didn’t close her eyes completely and saw the teleportation process. The previous neighborhood scenery was warped into her school’s entrance gate.

‘It’s different from what Melaine did. Hotaru’s teleportation caused a slight warp effect to the surroundings while what Melaine did basically didn’t leave any effect. Melaine's ability is too versatile as I had expected, but I didn’t know that teleportation would be worse than her ability.’

Naomi was analyzing Hotaru's ability and comparing her experience with what Melaine did to her yesterday.

“We’ve arrived, you can open your eyes.” Hotaru's voice brings Naomi back and Naomi opened her eyes.

“It’s convenient, how about you quit PD and become my secretary instead? I will give you double from what Esper Association gave you.” Said Naomi to Hotaru.

“R-really?!” Hotaru’s eyes sparkled before she stopped suddenly. She had a bitter smile on her face and said. “Maybe if you give your offer 6 months ago before Mugetsu’s attack I will accept it. But, I can’t accept your offer now. I want to stop Mugetsu, and the only way to achieve that is to stay as PD.”

Hotaru clenched her fist and looked at Naomi. “Did you watch the news yesterday? About Mugetsu’s attack in the United States.” Asked Hotaru.

“I did, the fireball at the end of the news was so big. I guess that’s the ability of Mugetsu’s subordinate?”

“Yes, that was the ability of Homuhara Rekka. We suspected that he is Mugetsu’s right hand in her organization. He is an SS-Ranked criminal that escaped from the Hokkaido’s prison.” Hotaru's expression was serious when she said that.

Realizing that Naomi was staring at her, she smiled and said. “But you don’t need to worry about them!! As long as I stay beside you, we can escape anytime!”

She tried to reassure Naomi with her smile, Naomi understands that and smiled back. She put her hand on Hotaru’s shoulder and said.

“I will count on you when that time comes, Miss Nobi. It seems school is about to start, I will go to my classroom. See you after school, Miss Nobi.” After Naomi said that, she entered the school and go to her classroom.

‘Well, if they come to me I won’t get scared. They are my subordinates after all.’ Thought Naomi. ‘Maybe I will play for a while before I got teleported by Hotaru when that time comes? That will be interesting.’

Naomi entered her classroom and sit on her desk. She read a book in her locker, the book was about how to be a great manager. She bought this book when her parents told her that she will become Akasa Inc.’s manager.

After reading for a few minutes, the bell that signified the class started was rung. She put her book on the desk and took out a notebook to pretend that she was paying attention to the class.

The homeroom teacher entered the classroom with another woman in a suit. When Naomi saw the woman, she let out a sigh of resignation.

The homeroom teacher stands in front of the class and introduces the woman beside her to the students.

“Pay attention! From now on there is a new assistant teacher for this class. She is from the Esper Association so please behave yourself!!”

The students become noisy when they heard that the woman was from the Esper Association. They made a guess about why she became an assistant teacher in this school.

Some of the students guessed that she is on a mission, the others guessed that she was searching for talents.

“Please keep quiet!! Miss Nobi, you may introduce yourself to the students.”

The woman, Nobi Hotaru takes a step forward and introduces herself to the students.

“Hello, I am the new assistant teacher, Nobi Hotaru. Nice to meet you!” Hotaru smiled as she introduced herself.

‘Haa- she won’t follow me as a bodyguard. So she will enter the classroom as an assistant teacher instead?!’
