Multiverse: You Said Chuunibyou, But You're Playing for Real?

"I don't have time today."

Yukino Yukinoshita didn't know what she was thinking, but suddenly calmed down and said composedly, "I've accepted Yuigahama-san's request and don't have time."

Yui Yuigahama looked at Yukino Yukinoshita with some concern.

Being good at reading people's expressions, she could tell at a glance that Yukino Yukinoshita became very panicked after hearing about the bet.

She couldn't help but become curious about what kind of bet Haru was talking about that could make the excellent and intimidating Yukino Yukinoshita so panicked.

"That's fine, I can wait, or even help you complete the request together." Haru smiled slightly. Of course, he couldn't let Yukino Yukinoshita escape so easily.

Moreover, Yui Yuigahama was also a special person. Since the opportunity had come, Haru thought it would be good to get familiar with her.

So he looked at Yui Yuigahama and said, "Yuigahama-san, what is the content of your request? Could you tell me about it?"

"Wait, this is my request. You don't need to meddle."

Yukino Yukinoshita immediately couldn't keep her composure, gritting her teeth as she spoke.

"Um, it's, it's okay, Yukinoshita-san."

Seeing that the two seemed about to argue, Yui Yuigahama quickly spoke up to stop them.

Then she looked up at Haru and said somewhat embarrassedly in a low voice, "If it's Haru-san, it's no problem."

Yukino Yukinoshita was very frustrated.

She just wanted to delay today's bet, which was why she didn't want Haru to join. But the client Yui Yuigahama had actually agreed.

What could she do?

She could only agree.

"So Yuigahama-san's request is to learn how to make cookies?"

In the cooking room, Haru looked at Yui Yuigahama with a light laugh.

"Yes, please help me."

Yui Yuigahama said frantically with a red face.

"You don't need to ask him. Your request is my responsibility. He's just shamelessly tagging along."

Yukino Yukinoshita, who had changed into cooking clothes, stood in front of a pile of cooking materials, seriously thinking about how to start. Hearing Yui Yuigahama's words, she spoke bluntly.

"I'm tagging along? I can't accept that statement."

Haru looked at Yukino Yukinoshita and said with a light laugh, "Don't speak too definitively, Yukinoshita-san."

"I once received an acceptance letter from Totsuki Culinary Academy."

Yukino Yukinoshita showed a proud expression to Haru, "Teaching Yuigahama-san is nothing more than child's play for me."

Having suffered several defeats at Haru's hands, Yukino Yukinoshita seemed to want to regain her confidence in front of him.

Therefore, despite not usually liking to show off, she rarely bragged.

"Amazing! An acceptance letter from Totsuki Culinary Academy!"

Upon hearing this, Yui Yuigahama immediately looked at Yukino Yukinoshita with shocked and admiring eyes, "I heard that graduates from that school without exception become the world's top chefs, and even ordinary students from that school can work as hotel head chefs when they graduate."

She looked at Yukino Yukinoshita with awe, her eyes full of curiosity: "Yukinoshita-san, since you received an acceptance letter from Totsuki Culinary Academy, why did you come to Sobu High?"

"Becoming a chef isn't in my future plans."

Yukino Yukinoshita said lightly, "Learning cooking is just a hobby of mine."

While speaking, Yukino Yukinoshita's image as profound, mysterious, and exceptionally excellent was completely established in Yui Yuigahama's mind.

However, Yukino Yukinoshita didn't have time to notice Yui Yuigahama's expression. Instead, she was secretly observing Haru's face.

This shameless person should understand how excellent she was, right?

Just because he had beaten her a few times didn't mean he could look down on Yukino Yukinoshita.

However, to Yukino Yukinoshita's displeasure, Haru's face still maintained the same calm expression as before:

"Yukinoshita-san, perhaps your cooking skills are excellent, but excellent cooking skills don't necessarily mean you have the ability to teach others."

"You're not going to say that your cooking skills are better than mine, are you?"

Yukino Yukinoshita wasn't convinced. She refused to believe that Haru was superior to her even in cooking skills.

"My cooking skills are naturally not as good as yours for now," Haru smiled slightly. "But my ability to teach cooking is superior to yours."

His optimal tutoring talent wasn't limited to just academic skills—it provided a huge boost when teaching knowledge in any field.

"Anyone can talk big," Yukino Yukinoshita snorted coldly, feeling that Haru was just trying to save face.

Suddenly, her heart stirred. Since this guy cared so much about face, perhaps she could take advantage of that.

She suddenly looked at Haru, a challenging glint appearing in her eyes: "Haru, you're so confident in your teaching abilities. How about we have a competition?"

"You want to compete with me again?" Haru looked at Yukino Yukinoshita with amusement. This girl still had the courage to bet with him.

"Just say whether you dare or not." Yukino Yukinoshita used a provocation tactic.

"No problem. What's the wager?" Haru naturally had no problem with it. After all, he knew just how terrifying Yui Yuigahama's hellish cooking talent was. For Yukino Yukinoshita to dare bet with him on this was nothing short of self-destruction.

"If I win, then the previous wager is cancelled."

A gleam flashed in Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes.

The previous wager had only been executed once, but these past few days, she had been distracted by that incident every single day. Even Haruno had noticed.

If it had to be executed ninety-nine more times, who knows what would happen. So Yukino Yukinoshita had been thinking of ways to reasonably "renege" on the bet.

After thinking it over, continuing to use betting seemed most cost-effective.

As long as she could beat Haru once, she could renege on the entire wager, and that way it wouldn't count as her breaking the contract.

"If I win... I don't need any other wager. How about adding ninety-nine more times to the heterochromia?"

Haru looked at Yukino Yukinoshita with a half-smile. This girl was thinking quite beautifully, but Haru didn't mind continuing to bet with her.

After all, the one who would lose definitely wouldn't be him.

Add ninety-nine more times?!

Upon hearing this, Yukino Yukinoshita's face immediately flushed, and she glared at Haru with wide eyes, instinctively wanting to refuse.

But then she understood why Haru had proposed such a wager.

After all, if she won, it would mean exempting ninety-nine times, and if Haru won, it would mean adding ninety-nine times.

This wager could be said to be perfectly equal, leaving her no reason to refuse.

Yukino Yukinoshita took a deep breath. After hesitating briefly, she made up her mind and accepted this wager.

"Last time he could beat me only because he exploited an information gap I wasn't aware of, not because he surpassed me in ability."

"And this time, teaching cooking skills is about real capability. In this regard, there's absolutely no way I could lose!"

"The advantage is mine—I can definitely bet on this!"

Yukino Yukinoshita calmed down. The more she thought about it, the more confident she became, and her mood grew excited.

As long as she won this time, she wouldn't have to worry every day about being seen by Haru anymore.
