== Chapter 273: "Win or Lose" ==
=== Nasa Wins... As Expected. ===
The Challenge between Nasa and Asimo is now over as the results for the Mock exam is finally out. Tsukasa was kind of surprised as she expected a narrow win or even a lose on behalf of Nasa. But, Nasa has taken 1st position ahead of Asimo by a landslide who is in 2nd. Nasa is happy that he won but he is now worried if he has now ruined the relation between Asimo and Himari.
Tsukasa comforts Nasa by saying that they would know what battles are like, it could mean life or death, and compared to it, this is nothing. She also stated that life goes on and win or lose doesn't matter in the end, then proceeds to say that winning is better basically ignoring her own words.
At the end, she is relieved that Himari's Suspicions about her immortality has now come to an end.
=== Calling someone a loser might do more damage than you think ===
We now get to Himari and Asimo, Asimo taking 2nd place is depressed that he lost his bet. Himari comforts him by saying that getting 2nd place itself is a feat that hardly anyone else could take and that he got it through sheer iron will and hardwork and so he sould be proud of himself. She tells him that she is impressed with him, but a he still lost. Asimo was taken aback and quotes "such cruel words from such a cute face". Himari teases him if he was surprised by the words, she says the she will keep calling him a loser and a dork. Asimo replies that he prefered that heartfelt praises more.
"The talk about you asking me out is now off" says Himari. Asimo asks if it has to be that way, to which she replies "yes, no mercy for the weak". She comes very close to Asimo and says too bad, and that if he had won then he could close the last centimeter between them, while sticking a centimeter away from Asimo's lips. Asimo was speechless and stood still which impressed Himari, after that she says that even though they're so close, Asimo would not Kiss Himari, which she likes about him. Asimo is surprised as if he just thought he could have done that, but now was too late as Himari started to move away.
=== Finding Nemo Tsukasa ===
After the event, HImari and Asimo move on to their next topic, the deal between Himari and Asimo (Winner can ask the loser anything). Now Asimo has to do whatever Himari says.
We get to Nasa, he is talking with Isaka to talk about Himari's deal, she is scared that HImari might ask Asimo out. Nasa does not have any idea about what would happen.
