Volume 4, Special – Karen Tendou and Gamers’ Companionship Scenery

“Don’t tell me, humans can no longer stop my victory rate?”

I, Karen Tendou, suddenly thought of that. To this puzzle game combat, I’m already on a 30 kill streak.

After school, since we don’t have any club activities today. The Game Club room is occupied by only both of us. I looked away from the TV screen and secretly took a glance at my opponent…My boyfriend, Keita Amano’s face.

Then, there’s…

“…Me… Just a scum whose power level is only 5…” [Note: Dragon ball line by Raditz about the first earthling he met]

“Ahhh, Amano-kun is like that guy with a straw hat, all he does was getting punched.” [Note: I think this is talking about Luffy from One Piece. I’m not sure, didn’t watch it.]

I didn’t realize this because I’m so immersed in the game. During this time, my boyfriend is already lamenting over his inability with bloody tears on his face.

I can’t help but immediately apologize.

“I-I’m sorry, Amano-kun. B-But, I feel like it’s very enriching when I’m combating with Amano-kun!”

“…Really?”

Amano-kun’s peeking at me, who just suddenly apologized. To him, I…can’t help but say my sincere words.

“Yep. It’s because…once I started playing games with you, I would turn a bit sleepy.”

“Although this round for me is like spawn camping a bunch of Lv.1 players, I still wish that you can hone your skills in this game.”

E-Eh, this is strange. I initially wanted to tell him that he’s the only one in my heart when we’re together and that this is relaxing. Why I am feeling a subtle difference right now.

I immediately coughed as I tried to correct myself.

“Amano-kun, please don’t misunderstand. I’ve never thought about enhancing my gaming skills when I’m up against you.”

“T-Tendou-san…I’m sorry. P-Perhaps I’m too self-abased.”

“You’re. Even when I beat you so many times already, none of that is converting to any of my EXP.”

“I’m not even worthy of being hunted by you. Ugh…I’m really sorry for sucking this much…”

W-What, what’s going on. I’m trying to emphasis that “you are special to me,” why is my boyfriend’s voice getting weaker and weaker. Now it’s like hearing a bug apologizing to me.

I can’t do this anymore…But, if things have already turned this way, it’s impossible for me to just express my sincere feelings to him.

“Sigh, my weak boyfriend.”

“Yes, what can I do for you, my strongest girlfriend-sama.”

The boy is already switched to his tantrum mode. I continued.

“Honestly, from the Gamer Karen Tendou’s perspective, you’re the worst opponent.”

“What a kill! It’s too much to just insult me directly, after all.” Amano-kun kept scratching his cheeks.

To him, …I only gave a light, gentle smile.

“Even so, a girl like that is still intoxicatedly, happily, repeated playing against you…Why does that happen?”

“…Well, …uh…”

Right now, even when my voice is low, Amano-kun seemed to have understood what’s the hidden meaning behind my words. So, he blushed while looking away from me. …Hmm, when he’s treated this innocently. How should I put it, even I started to get embarrassed as well!

After this rare moment, I cleared my throat with a cough. Although there’s still a bit of a blush on my face, I suggested to the boy.

“By the way, Amano-kun, …can we play for just a bit longer? Even when Amano-kun hates to play with a person like me.”

To my trembling words, Amano-kun…faced me again and gave the same shy smile I had.

“Put it this way, a boy with a child-like appearance and less-than-average IQ like me. Even when I’m losing 30 rounds in a row, I’m still intoxicatedly, happily, repeated playing against Tendou-san. What do you think about that?” “…It’s because you’re a masochist?”

“T-Tendou-san?”

“I’m just kidding.”

We smiled at each other before starting the combat again.

So, today’s the same. We still companioned each other in front of the moving scenery of the TV screen, unpretentiously, and lovingly.
