GodDraw77 assumed Rita was just shy and embarrassed to admit her goal, so she didn't push. Instead, she gently encouraged her.
"Good. I'll be waiting for you to come claim it. But stop charging stat points to bring classmates into the SSS class. I know it's unfair to you. As compensation, starting now, on the 10th and 20th of each month, you can come here in the afternoon, and I'll give you private lessons."
"Can I learn your defense techniques?" Rita asked.
"You can."
Rita kept a straight face, pretending to think for a moment before reluctantly nodding.
"Fine. I'm only doing this to save face for you, GodDraw77. It's settled then—I won't charge people to get into SSS classes anymore."
GodDraw77: "..."
Once they reached an agreement, Rita was ready to leave, but as she stood, GodDraw77 gently grabbed her left wrist.
Rita instantly went on alert.
What now? What's she trying to pull?
After all, anyone who could get along with Lightchaser had to be a special kind of menace.
