"Huh?!"
Robin's face was overtaken by sheer disbelief. "Wait—what?! Is there some kind of misunderstanding going on here? Who said I wanted to be a professor?! Or that I even have time for something like this?!"

You, a complete stranger—suddenly seen walking beside me, entering restricted buildings, meeting with a Royal Soul Master… it would raise far too many questions."
