Once Eito left the room, he wouldn't have to go far before spotting a certain pink haired student, who seemed to be watching the classroom door from not that far away. She had her phone in her hand, and as he looked at her, she walked over to him. The phone was thrust out, "Sensei, I worked on my essay for the ten minutes you were in there. I was hoping you might go over it with me real quick. It's basically the same argument I made already, but I hoped to extend it a bit." If read, it is indeed the same basis of argument that she had made before... but the additional wordiness of putting it into text only muddles it. It's clear that she's working with an advanced understanding of economics, but her language tries to flow between 'understandable to the masses' and 'only readable by those already trained' too quickly and far too many times.

Eito is stepping out of his room, briefcase in one hand and pad in his other when he sots the pink blur, stopping to listen. "Already? Goodness how industrious. Hmm the concepts are there and strong, I would recommend checking out Yasuki Jekku's book on commerce and Daidoji Soken's book on Supply And Demand for some ideas similar to yours. It might help you refine your arguments. You should also chose flattery or simplicity. Trying for both is a bit hard. An excellent start for the time alloted though. You really do value this class don't you Otomo-sama?" he asks her with that charming sexy Eito smile that he sadly does not know is not very effective in this case.

"Yes, Sensei." She nodded her head at the critique, and then again about the value of the course, "I do not wish to rely upon my family for everything. I could have a good life, letting my eldest sister take the company and provide for me as family.
But I do not wish for the life my brother and second sister do, benefiting from our family. This class is a chance for me to seize my destiny, and prove that I can take the reins. She bowed deeply but didn't even react to the smile, "And even if I do not inherit, I wish to be able to build my own legacy, not live under the shadows of another's. And I believe myself capable, with the aid of a knowledgeable sensei, and dedication." She gave her own, super cute smile up at the man, and then pulled her phone back, clicking twice to change app before putting it back out, "For that reason, I would like your number." She was all business, even with the cute smiles, the calculations in her head were visible in her eyes, as she weighed the benefits of befriending Eito against other actions.

Eito thinks a moment then punches in two. "My faculty number, my private number. I am impressed with your ambition. The desire to be better, to build better and to create better is what makes our Empire great. Text me anytime you need. I admire that trait in you and I would like to see you do well on your own rather then just sit on your families money like others. Hmm Answer me a question and I will answer yours about my other class. If you had access to your wealth and legacy, what would you want to do with it?"

"Create change." She had no reason to hide it, if she was to use the Sensei, it would be best to give him enough to lure him in, "We hobble ourselves with this slowness of opening to foreign trade. We cripple ourselves with devotions to bygone beliefs.
I would not upend the heavens, or claim they are wrong, but a world is not wrought of unending tradition. We are changing, but it is slow. I wish to be able to stand on a footing to change that." She would, perhaps, leave out one of the big changes she wanted to make - there was no need for Eito to know of her sexuality, especially since he seemed to be trying to charm her. It was, in fact, likely useful to let him think he was. A sweet smile was given, "And I want for the Empire to be more compassionate because I believe that compassion is the greatest way to keep peace,
and that peace is important to keep the Empire whole."

Eito thinks a moment, nodding to himself. "I agree with most of that. Mind you old tradition and belief has it's place. A place that must be tested but respected. But a place. I agree that love and compassion are the best way to keep peace as well." he says as he takes a knee, to better get on eye level with the tiny pink girl. "I have written on the need for love and compassion before. Now as for why I call my class Ethics of Shourido? Branding. Marketing. Most people are offended the school would even teach what Shourido is. By adding in Ethics I give them more reason to believe that I will be neutral. I will look at it critically, and allow debate, if my beliefs cannot stand up they do not deserve to, but I also honestly believe there is much others can learn about from it."

"Perhaps I shall come to a class. Some day. But only if it does not conflict with classes that are closer to finding my goals, Sensei." She was still smiling - it did sound interesting, as an idea, if only to see the other side taught by someone from it, but she didn't need to learn it, she needed to learn many other things, in her time here, "Unfortunately, there is only so much time in the day.
But perhaps you shall grace me with lessons when I am free, even if not within the confines of a proper class."

"Private lessons? Gladly. I think you might be able to help advance my goals by advancing yours. And this Empire of Compassion, it reminds me of someone I knew back when I was going here." he says with a strange wistfull look in his eyes before he shakes it off and goes back to sexy Eito mode. "Economics is a competition though. You will need to hurt people. But no matter what anyone tells you, you will never need to be cruel. Mercy is always an option. Kindness always a stratagem. I have conquered greater through friendship then most of my rivals through deception and malice. Remember that."

"Of course, Sensei. To defeat an opponent need not be to crush them, to destroy will. There will always be competition in the world, but it needn't be played assuming that decimating the others and hearing the lamentations of their family is a good thing." She smiled at the compliments, her face free of blush, even at stupid-sexy-eito, and she gave a small bow, "I should be off now. I have a meeting for student council. Please excuse me."

"Hey! Otomo-san. A favor before you go? Look after Tsuruchi Natsu? She represents the minor clan and could use some guidance her own age in the world of the courts. Thank you." he offers with a deep bow before he heads to his room.
