In Hentai World as Mira Tsubakihara's Relative

Chapter 98: Chapter 98: Tachibana Yui



On the other side, Hikari, who had set his messages to not alert Sakuramiya Hinata, didn't even glance at her continued messages.

———

"Ah, so annoying!"

Back in her class, Sakuramiya Hinata glanced at her book but found herself unable to concentrate.

Without Hikari's reply, she was stuck in a state of intense frustration and unease.

Being close sisters, Sakuramiya Saya quickly noticed that her younger sister, Sakuramiya Hinata, seemed a bit off.

"Hinata, is something wrong?" Sakuramiya Saya asked with concern.

"It's nothing," Sakuramiya Hinata shook her head and didn't say much.

After all, if she were to mention apologizing to Hikari, Sakuramiya Saya would undoubtedly ask why she did that.

To explain clearly, she'd have to bring up Tachikawa's threats against her.

But regarding this matter, Sakuramiya Hinata didn't want to tell Sakuramiya Saya. She felt it would make her sister happier and also served as a form of protection.

Furthermore, Sakuramiya Hinata had mostly figured things out.

Since Hikari hadn't replied to her online, it was probably because her sincerity wasn't enough.

It made sense. If she had saved someone, only for that person to arrogantly look down on her and insult her, she would also be extremely angry and want nothing to do with them.

With this in mind, Sakuramiya Hinata could fully understand Hikari's feelings after putting herself in his shoes.

So, she planned to apologize to Hikari in person after class when he came to the archery club for practice.

———

On the other hand, Hikari, who had been surrounded by four girls, parted ways with Natsuha from another class at the classroom door.

Of course, he also peeled off the three gyaru girls who were practically sticking to him and shooed them away.

After all, the classmates in the classroom were at least familiar. Holding a party-like gathering in front of them didn't feel appropriate to Hikari.

As soon as Hikari sat at his desk, a fragrant breeze accompanied by footsteps approached.

Looking up, he saw a purple-haired beauty in a perfectly neat JK uniform, dressed entirely to the standards of a high school girl.

"Class rep?" The serious-looking beauty standing by Hikari's desk was none other than the class representative, Chizuru Shiina.

Chizuru Shiina lightly patted Hikari's desk and spoke in a stern tone: "Hikari, those three gyaru girls bullied you before, and I even stood up for you. But in just a few days, you're already mingling with them?"

"I mean, if you want to play around, can't you do it off-campus? Acting like this in school is a bad influence, you understand?"

"High school students should focus on studying, not on these romantic affairs."

"And one against three? Do you think your body can handle it?"

Seeing Chizuru Shiina's righteous demeanor, Hikari was amused and exasperated. He only wanted to crush minotaurs, yet these girls clung to him. What could he do?

Noticing that Hikari had no intention of explaining, Chizuru Shiina seemed to have figured it out.

So, after giving him a proper lecture from her perspective as the class rep, she extended her fair hand. "Yesterday's homework."

Chizuru Shiina had already prepared herself for Hikari to not have completed it. She had planned to use it as a chance to lecture him about not wasting time with those gyaru girls and focusing on his studies.

But to her surprise—

Hikari rummaged through his bag for a moment and pulled out his homework, placing it in her hand.

"Here, homework."

Taking the homework in hand, Chizuru Shiina was momentarily stunned. "You actually did it?"

Hikari smiled without explaining.

To be honest, Chizuru Shiina wasn't wrong.

He was indeed too busy crushing minotaurs to have time for homework.

So, how did this homework come to be?

Naturally, it was written by Natsuha Shinomiya, who, after completing hers, helped copy his.

Being on good terms with Natsuha Shinomiya had its perks.

Homework to copy from her, and when there wasn't any, her to copy from—it was a blissful life.

Hikari leaned back in his chair with arms folded behind his head, crossing his legs slightly, looking completely at ease.

He finally understood why so many classmates found Chizuru Shiina annoying.

This class rep was too righteous—so much so that she was in full-on rule-enforcer mode, scolding anyone for even slightly overgrown hair.

It wasn't exactly a bad thing, but it did make people want to provoke and tease her.

Seeing Hikari's relaxed demeanor, Chizuru Shiina felt a spark of irritation.

"Let me see if you really did it or just handed me a blank notebook."

Chizuru Shiina quickly flipped through it and realized that Hikari had actually completed all the questions.

"You really did the homework, and you got the answers right. Even the handwriting is so neat and elegant…"

"Wait! This elegant handwriting isn't yours, is it?"

Chizuru Shiina examined it closely and immediately spotted the discrepancy.

Hikari waved his hand dismissively, his expression calm. "Look at the first page and check whose name is on it."

Chizuru Shiina, with an air of righteousness, said, "The name on the notebook is yours, but the content wasn't written by you."

Hikari replied helplessly, "How do you know I didn't write it? I could have a beautiful-girl alter ego whose handwriting is especially neat. Doesn't that work? And regardless of who wrote it, as long as it's in my notebook, it's my homework."

"Dear class rep, can't you just let it go?"

"After all, you wouldn't want others to know about your secret crush on Tsukino-sensei, would you?"

Upon hearing this, Chizuru Shiina's fair face turned bright red. She pointed a trembling finger at Hikari, her tone stammering, "You… y-you-you! I do not have a crush on Tsukino-sensei."

Hikari grinned. "Oh? So you've confessed already? A teacher-student romance? Quite bold of you."

Chizuru Shiina stomped her foot. "What nonsense are you spouting? I merely admire Tsukino-sensei. Nothing more."

"You're terrible, Hikari. I'm disappointed in you."

With that, Chizuru Shiina turned away angrily. Having her little secret exposed so suddenly left her face flushed and warm.

In truth, she wasn't lying. Chizuru Shiina didn't currently have feelings for Tsukino-sensei. It was more about admiration and respect because of the slight support he showed her amidst the disdain from others.

However, compared to Hikari, even Tsukino-sensei's attractive features paled.

'That Hikari guy. When I first saw him at the start of the school year, I thought he looked… pretty handsome.'

'But who would've thought… his personality is so frivolous, so bad, hanging out with those flashy delinquent girls—he pisses me off.'

'He's got a face even more handsome than Tsukino-sensei's, and just seeing him draws you in, but his personality is so awful. What a bad guy.'

When Hikari first joined the class, he was quite unsociable, so Chizuru Shiina paid special attention to him, wondering if he, like her, was someone with few friends.

But it didn't take long before Hikari started hanging out with a group of very pretty, flashy girls, which always made Chizuru Shiina feel an overwhelming sense of disappointment.

With this frustration in mind, Chizuru Shiina turned her head and stretched out her hand toward Yoshida Saki, who sat in front of Hikari, "Yoshida-san, it's time to hand in your homework."

Hearing Chizuru Shiina's loud and upright voice, the naturally timid and introverted Yoshida Saki trembled slightly before weakly responding,"Um… Class Rep, I haven't… finished my homework yet…"

Yoshida Saki was somewhat afraid of this seemingly fierce class representative.

Just as she was worried about being scolded harshly by Chizuru Shiina, a pleasant voice came from behind her.

"I say, Class Rep, Yoshida-san is a transfer student; she needs time to adapt, doesn't she?"

Hikari stretched out his hand, pulled his own notebook out from the pile of homework Chihiro was holding, and threw it onto Yoshida Saki's desk.

"I'll lend you my homework for one class period. Copy it and hand it in together with yours."

Picking up Hikari's notebook, Yoshida Saki's delicate face lit up with surprise and joy. She turned around with immense gratitude and said to Hikari,"Thank you, Hikari-kun. You're so kind. Thank you so much."

Seeing this scene, Chizuru Shiina snorted arrogantly,"Hikari, you're something else. You see Yoshida-san's pretty face, and you start flirting, huh? Shameless!"

Although she said this, Chizuru Shiina actually agreed with Hikari's point, so she turned and walked away.

She was simply someone with a strong sense of justice, not someone who couldn't tell right from wrong.

Meanwhile, Yoshida Saki, holding Hikari's notebook, secretly took a few deep breaths of the scent left on it before quickly starting to copy it down.

After finishing the homework, during the break, Yoshida Saki, who was immensely grateful for Hikari's help, really wanted to strike up a conversation with him.

But her sensitive, introverted nature made her hesitant.

On the other hand, Ruri and two other flashy girls kept coming over to tease Hikari a few more times.

However, since Yoshida Saki wouldn't give up her seat, they couldn't stay for long and had to return to their seats as soon as class started.

Hikari, for his part, didn't pay much attention to the three flashy girls and instead focused his attention slightly on his Pure Love Radar.

Just before the end of the school day, Hikari noticed a faint signal on his Pure Love Radar.

The signal wasn't as strong as usual; it was rather subtle.

Hikari opened the Pure Love Radar map and carefully examined it.

He found two slightly marked red danger spots indicating cuckold-related threats on the school map, but they weren't very obvious—only faintly red.

Hikari speculated,'In this case, maybe someone's planning to do something bad, but hasn't started yet?'

Hikari pondered, deciding to keep an eye out today to see if he could identify these two people beforehand.

Although he could wait for them to come to him to figure out who they were, Hikari didn't like waiting. Most of the time, he preferred to take the initiative and nip potential dangers in the bud.

———

Sitting in class, Nanao Akane absentmindedly listened to the lecture while writing a resignation form from the baseball club.

After realizing her feelings for Hikari, Nanao Akane no longer wanted to stay in the baseball club.

Additionally, the presence of the disgusting coach Togo and Katase Shoya made her decision even clearer—she had to quit the club today.

As soon as the dismissal bell rang, Nanao Akane, holding her resignation form, quickly left the classroom and headed straight for the baseball club.

She arrived at a small room in the baseball club's activity area, where only one person was present.

It was a slender girl in a JK uniform. Her white blouse was adorned with a green bow tie, and her long black hair was tied into a high ponytail, with neat bangs framing her smooth forehead. She had a delicate and pretty appearance.

Although her chest was slightly smaller than the overly developed Nanao Akane's, it was still ample and full, more prominent than most high school girls'.

Combined with her perky hips and long, slender legs, she was undeniably a rare beauty.

When Nanao Akane saw the girl, she immediately waved and greeted her warmly,"Yui-chan!"

Hearing Akane's call, Tachibana Yui turned her head,"Akane, you're here."

The black-haired high ponytail girl, Tachibana Yui, was the baseball club's vice manager.

She was also Nanao Akane's good friend, sharing a close, almost sister-like relationship.

After Nanao Akane resigned as the baseball club manager, Tachibana Yui, as vice manager, would naturally take over her position.

Knowing this, Akane had messaged Yui in advance to arrange a handover of baseball club matters.

The two quickly completed the handover tasks.

After putting away the materials handed over by Akane, Yui couldn't help but curiously ask, "Akane, why did you suddenly decide to quit? There are already so few girls in the baseball club. Without you, I hardly know anyone."

Nanao Akane smiled and replied, "I only joined the baseball club for someone and something I cared about, but now there's nothing and no one I care about there anymore."

"So, I decided to quit and pursue what I care about now."

Seeing Akane's firm tone, Tachibana Yui gave up on persuading her and offered her blessings instead, "Then I wish you success and all the best in pursuing what you want, Akane."

Nanao Akane smiled and accepted her wishes, then turned serious and said to Tachibana Yui, "Yui-chan, there's something I need to tell you."
