Kenkyo, Kenjitsu o Motto ni Ikite Orimasu

Chapter 68



The next day, I was afraid of going to school.I was already nervous about people looking at me differently because I unveiled Domineering Reika-sama, but I also went and disparaged Kaburagi in the salon, so if that spread Id be completely isolated.And as for how angry Kaburagi was&h.e.l.lip; Just imagining it was terrifying!Looking left and right for any enemy attacks, I carefully entered the cla.s.sroom.He wasnt here yet. But I cant let down my guard.

Good morning, Reika-sama.

Gokigenyou, Reika-sama.

My friends all greeted me with a smile. What nice smiles. Is it because they got to vent their pent-up feelings?

Gokigenyou.

I sat down at my seat. And then people gathered around me.

Uhuhu, yesterday was terribly refreshing, wasnt it, Reika-sama.

Serika-chan was wearing a cruel smile.One of Tsuruhana-sans group was sitting in the corner of the cla.s.sroom, and when our eyes met by chance, she looked away frightened.Uh oh. Did I threaten them too much?

Say, everybody. Those girls seem to be reflecting already, so let us not continue this. I have already forgiven them.

Eh, but,

I do not think that Kaburagi-sama would look well upon us girls being so vicious to each other.

Everyone looked like they realised some shocking revelation.Well, its not really something I should be saying after picking a fight with him though.

Ifyousay so, then&h.e.l.lip;

After giving each other a look, everybody nodded. Thank goodness. Kaburagi is incredibly effective, isnt he. On the other hand, I can only imagine how quickly theyll abandon me if they know I became Kaburagis enemy.

Kyah! Its Emperor and Enjou-sama!

Eh-

Kaburagi, and for some reason Enjou as well, suddenly entered the cla.s.sroom. Oh c.r.a.p, are they here to announce my death sentence!? Are they here to take me to the guillotine!?My heart pounded as I waited for the enemys move. Geh-! Hes coming this way!The girls sitting around me displayed some unwanted consideration and parted left and right. Kaburagi was right in front of my eyes now.M-, My stomach&h.e.l.lip;Suddenly, his fist smacked down on my head.

NGYAH-!

OW! I-I BELIEVE IN NON-VIOLENCE! AND I LET OUT A WEIRD VOICE!

Were even now.

As I was cradling my head and moaning, Kaburagi left those words before heading back to his seat.

Hah?

Aahh, sorry about that, Kisshouin-san. I kiiinda have something to talk to you about. Are you free?

All of my followers started kicking up a fuss again. Ah, deja vu.But it was impossible to refuse this time. I want a peaceful school life.My friends seemed to be having another terrible misunderstanding, because I was seen off under their envious gazes. As I rubbed my head, I was once again taken to that staircase.Scary&h.e.l.lip; Is this guy my executioner!?

Is your head okay? He really shouldnt have hit you. But well, at least thats his way of apologising.

Apologising?

You apologise by punching people in the head?

We had a good talk after you left, yesterday. We realised that we were being kind of irresponsible, and reflected on it. But Masayas just stubborn, so he couldnt bring himself to apologise honestly. Thats why he said stuff about being even instead.

What the heck. What a loser emperor.But then, does that mean that Kaburagi isnt angry anymore?Im not going to be enemies with all the Kaburagi fans?

I explained to everyone in the salon. I told them that we did something to make you angry. Luckily there werent too many people. I made sure to forbid them from speaking, so there shouldnt be any rumours.

Um, thank you very much.

Also, Ive reflected on what I did as well. Sorry.

Enjou gave me a bow.Uwah, being apologised to makes it scarier and scarier!

Ummmmm, so does that mean that we will forget about what happened yesterday? I asked timidly.

Of course, he nodded.

Is he reallly being honest~? Is he acttuallyy still plotting something~? Sooo suspiciouss~

Your expression says that you dont trust me at all. Am I really so untrustworthy?

Er, I cant really say that to your face, so Im going to pretend I didnt hear it. What a great skill this is.

I really do feel bad though. As an apology for Masayas punch too, please give me a good hit.

Ehh, is this his plan to get more blackmail material?But well, I still want vengeance for my stomach and hair.But Ill pa.s.s, since its suspicious. And Im an ojousama. Violence is just beyond me.

If you dont at least hit me, I wont be able to feel at ease. Dont worry, and just hit me. Although Im not Masaya, this time well really count it as even, okay?

You truly will not hold a grudge? For example, using this to threaten me later.

I wont, I said.

Hmmmm~ Then should I just do it?Enjou leant his face forward a little to make it easier to punch.I see. Well then.

GUH-!

A gouging hook to the solar plexus.If I hit you on the face, everybody would see, right? Its a basic skill to hit where they cant see.

Well then, I suppose we truly are even now. Right, Enjou-sama?

Enjou quickly nodded again and again as he clutched his stomach.Alright!I left Enjou behind and returned happily to my cla.s.sroom.I dont really get it, but I somehow managed to escape the guillotine! Looks like the Rococo Queen escaped being turned into a dullahan!Maybe Ill reward myself later with some high calorie Annatorte~

Annatorte, a signature cake of Caf Demel, famous also for its Sachertorte. Layers of chocolate sponge and chocolate b.u.t.ter cream, with a strong chocolate taste and a hint of hazelnut.

With all of the annoyances settled, I pa.s.sed each day in great spirits.At Sakura-chans demand, I went and investigated Akizawa-kun and that kouhai girl.Hmmm~ I guess youcouldsay that theyre close?But in the end I wasnt sure, so I decided to ask the man himself.I quietly followed Akizawa-kun and waited for my chance. When there was n.o.body else around, I softly whispered out to him.

Akizawa-kun, Akizawa-kun.

UWAH-! Kisshouin-san!? Why are you in the shadows like that?

Is there really a need to be that surprised?

There was a little something I wanted to ask you.

Eh-, what?

To be blunt, what kind of relationship do you have with Torishima-san?

Eh-!

Akizawa-kun gave me a startled expression. Oh my?

Why are you asking something like that?

I was told to investigate.

&h.e.l.lip;Sakurako, huh. Kisshouin-san, you seem to be quite close to her. Even though shes so afraid of strangers.

Afraid of strangers? That queen with the tongue of poison? Does Akizawa-kun not know her true self?

I cannot reveal my client. Well? What kind?

Ehhhhh&h.e.l.lip; I dont really&h.e.l.lip;

Just a normal senpai-kouhai relationship?

Hmmmm.

What a terribly vague att.i.tude. She gave you a Valentines chocolate, did she not? Was it obligatory? It cannot be that it was a serious one?

&h.e.l.lip;I guess she might have written something like that in the card?

What the! So Sakura-chan reallywason the mark!? Im sorry for making light of you.

Dont tell anybody, okay?

Naturally. Well, what did you do?

I told her sorry and rejected her. And she said that she understood. That should have been the end, but the other day Neesan went and spoke about how I got a chocolate from a girl in front of Sakurako. Apparently Neesan just decided to enter my room.

Goodness.

And then Sakurako asked me why I kept it hidden.

Uwahh, interrogation by Sakura-chan? How scaryy.

It feels like Sakurakos been angry the whole time since then. What do I do?

Hmmm. How about asking her out on a date?

Eh-, a date!?

Yes. Lately you have been doing nothing but training, so I think she has been lonely. I am sure she would be overjoyed to go on a date with you. As for where, let me see&h.e.l.lip; How about paddle boating at Inokashira Park? It is quite a standard couples spot.

Inokashira Park in western Tokyo. A popular tourist attraction.

But a date? Were not really like that, but&h.e.l.lip; Mn, Ill try it. Thanks, Kisshouin-san.

Not at all.

I saw him off with a smile.But maan~ I did pretty good, huh!I even received some info on Torishima-san from one of Ririnas underlings, but it looks like I wont have to use it.May fortune smile upon the clichd osananajimi couple!
