78. The Other Side

RING-RING-RING-RING-RING

"Urfhhh this STUPID alarm clock."

I reached for the alarm shaped like a gun from 'Ereskima', my favorite game series, and flung that stupid shit at t...

77. Professor Reiji

The meal passed by quickly, and although they exchanged some light conversation it was generally a little quieter than usual. 

"....Are you mad?" Haruna asked, her head drooping slightly because she couldn't muster the courage to look at him properly.

Reiji, who was cleaning the ...

75. The Notice (2)

(About 1 Hour Ago)

***

Reiji was up early, even though it was a a wonderful Saturday and he should realistically be lounging around without a care in the world, like a normal teenager would do. 

But nope, he was up and about, toiling in the ...

73. The Lionheart (2)

'....Ok, this isn't fucking fair.'

Reiji pursed his lips in extreme frustration, cursing his luck. 

'Nah, this has to be some sort of villain's halo or something, what's with this timing? First Haruna and now her?'

As he started spewing obscenities in his ...

72. The Lionheart (1)

Reiji noticed their daze while they waited for their slushies to be made.

"What? Did I freak you guys out?" he teased, tilting his head with a playful smile.

Ren looked a little uncomfortable, but Greeny just smiled while Airi snorted with mock disgust all over her face.

71. Chiyogasaki Avenue

Chiyogasaki Avenue was a location with high foot traffic that was used often to host public events, festivals, and exhibitions like the one happening today.

The wide open space, a high ceiling over the entire area, and the abundant parking spaces made it the ideal option for such special oc...

70. Comparison is the Killer of Joy

Greeny and Airi studied Ren, who was awkwardly standing stiff because of the unexpected interruption. 

"Right, I guess you haven't met yet. This is Yamaguchi Ren, we met in Cooking Club and hit it off. Ren, these two are Fujimoto Airi and Ichihara Haruki, my friends," Reiji introduced ...

69. Oh No, I'm Gonna Fail.....

The next day was mostly uneventful. 

Well, compared to all the shit that had happened so far, Reiji was happy that there was a day he could consider as 'normal'.

Especially after the assignment he had to handle yesterday? 

For the first time he actually didn't mind the...

68. Meanwhile....

While Reiji was off torturing a blackmailer, Greeny and Airi were preparing for their own battle. 

Each book assigned by the reading club was meant to be read over the course of two weeks, so there was no debrief meeting for today's session. 

Students immediately went off to...

67. Blackmail (4)

(Chinatsu POV)

***

Chinatsu sat in her chair and stared at her front door, waiting for a knock. 

She had been sitting there for over an hour, ever since they had left her house to destroy the blackmail material that Keito was using against her.&nbs...

66. Blackmail (3)

(Keito's POV)

***

Keito was about to piss his pants. 

He couldn't even process what was happening, it all went downhill so fast. All he did was open the door slightly for a high school student and-

WHAM

He woke...

65. Blackmail (2)

Reiji sat in the back seat of the car, a little annoyed that such a wonderful day was cut short by this depressing event. 

"....Boss, so what's the plan?" Baldy asked cautiously when he saw that he wasn't in a good mood. 

Reiji looked at him with a raised eyebrow. 

64. Blackmail (1)

Reiji flipped through the document, expecting some janky businessman getting blackmailed by a competitor or something petty like that. 

But when he saw the details about the client, his eyes narrowed and he straightened up a little. He flipped through and saw that only a basic summary ...

63. Cafe Corazon

"Ah Mizuno-San, you made it!"

Everyone turned to the voice coming from the counter at the back of the cafe. 

There was a middle aged Japanese woman wearing an apron standing behind it, waving at Mizuno Senpai who jogged up to her. 

"Thanks for having us!" 

"...

62. First Outing

Reiji sat beside Haruna, who insisted on taking the window view. Ren sat next to them on the adjacent row since each side had two seats.

"The bus is small but it's pretty comfy," Haruna said as she leaned back comfortably. 

"Alright everyone! The second and third years know the d...

61. An Old Man in a Young Body

Haruna couldn't keep her excitement down throughout the day. Ever since she had heard about all the outings the Cooking Club planned to do during the orientations, she'd been looking forward to them if she was able to pass somehow. 

And now, not only had she become an official member, ...

60. City Tournament

Reiji wiped his face with the back of his hand, his eyes blinking in confusion as the sweat dripped from his forehead. 

He looked around and saw the other members staring at him in shock.

"Is this what Fujita was talking about? I didn't believe him when he said he found a gem..."...

59. Training Montage (Not Really)

Their chase didn't last too long, since Reiji's quota of three rounds ended earlier than Yui's four. They didn't actually run at full speed, just fast enough to stay ahead of everyone else. 

This allowed them to avoid hearing the gossip, which was Reiji's intention of running away from...

58. I'm Not Gay!

As Reiji and Yui walked up to the middle where a group of men and women holding clipboards were standing, the same senior from the MMA Club that had protected him from the sharks trying to poach him after his spar with Nakamura Senpai ran up to them. 

"Hey, Junior! I'm so happy to see ...

57. Aftermath

The next day Reiji thankfully didn't come across anyone while heading to school, but he was dreading going there in the first place.

He had found out that not only had Hina been upset at Haruna getting close with him, she had also found out about his request to Greeny and Airi.

Let's ...

56. Argument

Airi and Greeny who were each in their own rooms, recalled the events of what happened in the Reading Club while they messaged on the group chat.
