How much have I waited for this moment……!
 
A Test of Courage alone with Hoshina-san.
 
Hoshina-san clinging to me while saying ‘Kyaa’.
 
It’s okay, I’ll protect you, says I.
 
Her cheeks blushing, looking downward.
 
But the strength gripping my arm only grows stronger…… hey!
 
I’ve been expecting this for so loooooooong!
 
Ever since Kurashiki said we were doing a Test of Courage!
 
To ruin that…… Makibi! I will absolutely never forgive you!
 
If you had just disliked me a little more moderately, I wouldn’t have had to come up with this … Read the rest

Chapter 2: Amamori Yuuto’s Self-Staged Performance

[Ignore Class 1-A]
 
I thought about it for a bit, but that was the final conclusion.
 
Class A, led by Tachibana Tsukihime, or Makibi Kana.
 
If asked which is more important right at this moment, it’s Makibi.
 
It’s become a troublesome story since Tachibana noticed me, but it’s the truth, so it can’t be helped.
 
“Are you sure about this? When you say Class A’s Tachibana, that’s the guy you were most wary of, right?”
 
The sun had completely set.
 
The students of Class C were gathering … Read the rest

“Wha—! That’s impossible! Is… is that true, Hotaru-san!?”
 
“Yep. Kiridou-kun was saying it boastfully. When Amamori-kun and I heard that and laughed thinking it was a joke…… yeah. We got punched!”
 
“Thinking back on it now, he was an interesting guy—”
 
“He just had a screw loose.”
 
Karasuma and Sakuma piled on their words, and laughter echoed around us.
 
Asahina-jou is clenching her fists as if to say [Humiliation!].
 
Well, I’ll freely use the guy who isn’t here as material for laughs.
 
He was a harmful man from start to finish, so if … Read the rest

The first time, during the sports festival, I chose defeat to hide my true power.
 
The second time, that night, I not only lacked time, but I also needed to carve out an overwhelming defeat.
 
So, without letting my guard down, I crushed them with my ability.
 
And the third time… right now, this very moment.
 
In front of a public audience, I cannot use my ability.
 
However, there is no need to hide my power. There is no point in playing the weakling anymore.
 
In that case, since I’m at it, why not … Read the rest

“Dojima-senpai. Ordinary man, mediocre, untalented, commonplace, and on top of that, incompetent. It’s fine if I have at least one thing superior to others, right?”
 
Originally, I had no connection to things like talent.
 
I was raised surrounded by geniuses since I was young.
 
That is why I know my own lack of talent better than anyone.
 
Even so, I wanted something that wouldn’t lose to them.
 
I wanted something that couldn’t be overturned by just a single talent.
 
“……Ah, no doubt.”
 
Receiving my words, he happily clenched his fist.
 
In an … Read the rest

A while after Asahina’s entrance.
 
Around the time everyone had finally recovered from the shock.
 
Just as the noisy chatter began to be heard again…… an unpleasant presence approached.
 
As proof of that, thud thud, heavy footsteps could be heard.
 
“Amamoriii—! I was looking for you! Come on, let’s fight!”
 
“……Dojima, huh.”
 
I inadvertently call him without the ‘-senpai’.
 
When I turned my gaze, Dojima was coming this way while waving his hand.
 
By “fight”…… he means that [Sparring] thing he mentioned earlier.
 
If we both exclude supernatural abilities, it seems like it would be a decent fight, but…… … Read the rest

“Kurashiki-san, I might die here today.”
 
“That’s good to heaar. Even I can’t stop that, you knooww.”
 
Kurashiki’s words were already monotone.
 
As I stared fixedly at the Goddess, perhaps noticing my gaze, the Goddess looked my way and smiled happily…… but immediately realizing her own appearance, she hugged her body in embarrassment. Ah, so this is the feeling called reverence.
 
“A-Amamori-kun…… it is embarrassing if you look so much.”
 
“I apologize. Would you mind if I took a photo? I wish to make it a family heirloom.”
 
“A-Absolutely not!”
 
Our Venus, Hoshina-sama, … Read the rest

And so, we, Class C, arrived at the campsite.
 
“” Ooooooh! “”
 
What lay in wait for us was the great outdoors.
 
River water so clean it looked transparent.
 
Lush green trees and the chirping of small birds.
 
Several large log houses were lined up… and perhaps other students were there too, as figures could be seen fishing or playing in the water.
 
“Oh! Camping! This totally feels like camping! Honestly, the ruins where we fought Class B were so terrible I wasn’t expecting much this time, but this easily surpassed my imagination! … Read the rest

Without a doubt, a specific person popped into their heads.
 
To be precise, Makibi Kana.
 
She is Kurashiki’s best friend, “Kana-chan.”
 
The theory that “a friend of a friend is a friend” does not apply to her.
 
Even if I say, “Let’s get along as Kurashiki’s friends,” only killing intent would return.
 
I wonder why. Is it because Kurashiki and I aren’t friends in the first place?
 
I had given up, thinking it can’t be helped, but… lately, things have been taking a turn for the worse.
 
“The purpose of the camp … Read the rest

—However, there was a major problem with Shiki hanging around Class C.
 
Yes, the relationship between Shiki, who did the bullying, and Hoshina-san, who was bullied.
 
Everyone in Class C knew about their relationship.
 
That’s why everyone was secretly keeping an eye on Hoshina-san’s reaction, but…….
 
[Ah, Shiki-san, long time no see!]
 
[Hoshina-san! Sorry about that time! Shinzaki was being so annoying!]
 
Seeing the two start talking with smiles and wry grins, we learned that our worries were needless anxiety.
 
Apparently, that [bullying] was just a performance solely to show Class C, and the bullying of Hoshina-san within Class B … Read the rest
