The real reason Hayami didn't want to ask Gamou to come to the school was only because he was worried how much he would suffer for his inability to control his student. These two children were significantly different from Sonoda, his loyal puppy, who had obediently trailed after him even when he had no choice but to be stern with her. At this point, he was far too tempted to force the other into submission, but that was always the last course of action he'd want to take. His options were carefully weighed before he acted, since there was no taking back something once it was done.

Closing more of the distance between them, Hayami tilted his head down at the younger man. "You should learn to acknowledge when others are offering to help you. A king working alone won't last for long." It might have even been a thinly veiled threat, the way it was stressed.
