Chapter 4: The Sudden Change Between Me And My Cla.s.smates Is Too MuchPart 1“It’s already this late………….”
I was looking at Yuuouji who was playing with Chocolat and Yuragi at the lazy pool and made a sigh.
Approximately 1 hour ago.
“W-wait up Yuuouji! Sorry, I didn’t think you would be that displeased when your hands are being held”
Having finally found Yuuouji after looking around the pool premise, I I desperately stopped her when her face turned red and she was about to run off again.
“Heh……….hand?”
Yuuouji looked blank.
“Huh………..wasn’t I talking about your hand?”
I made the exact same face.
“…………………..a-ahaha, t-that’s right, you were talking about my hand when you meant touching. Ha-haha…………….i wonder why did I run away then”
“No………………that’s what I want to know”
“Un, Ama-chi doesn’t remember……………okay, then it’s okay!”
Yuuouji who got energetic for an unknown reason, completely turned back to her normal self…………, I have no idea what was going on here at all.
After that, I brought the recovered Yuuouji back to Yawakaze and we regrouped back to the other members which were all gathered at one point by the president.
The view of the 6 school’s prided beauties are in their swimsuits together was magnificent but-------
“Everyone, congratulations on re-grouping safely. Then let’s get back to the same group~~”
President Kokubyakuin immediately brought Yawakaze and Reikadou somewhere else so, our original 4 members went to the lazy pool.
I finally got a chance to relax so after I let the noisy 3 girls to play; I decided to think about a way to clear the mission.
But, although I was twisting my mind from just now, there were no signs of a method to make Yuuouji cry p.o.o.ping up at all.
Whenever that happens, the existence of my secret weapon pa.s.ses by my mind. Things would be simple if I use that but………….no, I should think about this a little more.
“Haaa…………I guess I’ll swim a little too as refreshment”
While ma.s.saging my head which turned heavy from thinking too much, I walked towards the lazy pool.
(Everyone…….looks like they are having fun)
Furano was floating in the lazy pool with a swim ring while looking at Chocolat, Ouka and Yuragi jealously.
After the Agua-kun event where she lost them; it was a few minutes ago when she went around the premise and found Kanade’s group.
(Uu…………….why am I acting like a stalker here)
She can’t bring herself to boldly talk to them and she can’t make up her mind to go back.
“Haaa…………….”
Just when her negative thinking jumped in, she saw Kanade who was resting at the pool side, entering right at the middle of Chocolat’s group and Furano.
(Wah, wha-what should I do. I have to get away or he will find me-----wait, eh?)
The moment she felt someone behind her and she turned around,
“Ah, Sorry”
“…………..eh?”
Someone b.u.mped into her and the swim ring flew off.
“A-awah, awawa”
The deepness was even for her legs to reach if she calmed down but, Furano completely feel into panic. “Wapu, wapu”
Even when Furano was rampaging around, water entered her nose and mouth and made her panic even more.
(So-someone, help---------)
“Hn?”
I entered the lazy pool and heard splashes behind me.
When I looked over there, someone drowning was flowing there. It seems that the person was quite in panic even though it wasn’t that deep here, and since the person was splashing water around grandly because of the rampage, I could not know if it was male of female……….
“Wapu, wapu”
A girl huh……………it sounds like a voice I heard somewhere before; while thinking that, I stopped the person flowing to me.
“Are you okay?”
“Auuuu………T-thank you very much-----“
“Yuki…………..hira?”
The moment Yukihira met with my eyes, her face froze.
“A-amakusa-kun………..”
I am imagining things right? Just now, I saw her make a very cute expression and she said Auuu……………
After the moment ended, I saw Yukihira’s face which was even more than a noh mask………it was my imagination after all.
However, what’s this bad feeling…….killing intent?
“Uoooo!”
Next off, Yukihira’s punch exploded at the spot where my face was at until just now.
“Are you trying to kill me!”
Th-that one wasn’t funny.
“Your point of view isn’t that far off”
“You admitted it!”
“It’s just a joke. A person won’t die from something small like having their nose crushed”
“You were seriously trying to do that!”
“Well my real goal, is to go around you after you flinch and punch the back of your head”
“Just how far would you go!”
The Yukihira today is even more dangerous than usual. She has the atmosphere that, she would bring out a scissor and might say something like [I will kill anyone that oppose me, even it’s my parents].
“Forget that, don’t you have some kind of reason to come here?”
She did take the ticket but, if I am correct; she said something unknown about feeding it to her goat.
“Yes, I didn’t plan on coming originally; I let my goat eat the ticket but, it seems that her stomach was in a bad condition so, it came out from her b.u.t.t without it being digested causing me to use it since it can’t be helped”
“No………that’s impossible”
“Well, the digested part was a joke. It melted once before coming out as recycled paper”
“That’s even more impossible!”
I am tired……….handling this girl is tiring no matter where as expected.
“Well, no matter what reason you may have, how about talking to the girls there since you came here?”
“…………….no, I’ll pa.s.s”
“Why……………..wait, your body is trembling, are you okay?”
“Amakusa-kun, if the head of enemy is taken, even I have no choice but to get excited”
“Why are you trembling in excitement here!”
“Trembling in excitement in a place like this; that’s the worst of deeds”
“Isn’t it because your ears are rotten!”
“………………………………………………………………………………………..correct”
“Why are you giving paused replies like Milli○n!”
“Incidentally, my ears aren’t really rotten”
“I know! Don’t take me as an idiot!”
“………………………………………………………………………………………..correct”
“So annoyyiiiiiiing!”
Yukihira let out her words blandly in response to my rough voice.
“By the way Yukihira-kun………………….i would be thankful if you can take that swim ring for me”
Yukihira pointed at the swim ring which was stuck at the plant growing in the pool.
“…………..perhaps, you can’t swim?”
She was drowning just now after all and it didn’t feel like she cramped her leg.
“……………..no way”
“Then why would you need a swim ring”
“I feel oddly calm inside that obscene looking tool”
“For now, apologize to the swim ring with everything you got!”
It’s established fact that Yukihira can’t swim but, it makes me want to tease her a bit.
“But if you really can swim then you don’t need it right~~”
I always get cornered down in a conversation so; I am probably allowed to tease her at least this much.
“……………………………………………………………………………………………..”
“No please reply something! You make it look like I am some kind of bad guy here!”
“………………………………………………………………………………………..●●”
“There should be a limit in your reply right!”
Yukihira glared at me. Uu……………….she really looks p.i.s.sed and isn’t faking it.
“I get it, it’s my fault. Here you go”
I took the swim ring and handed it to her.
“I don’t need it. I can swim”
Uwah………..she’s completely stubborn now.
“No no, don’t act stubborn and take it”
“I don’t need it”
“………………”
“………………”
[Si-since you say that much, I guess I’ll accept------][If you are going to act so stubborn then you don’t need------]
Uwah, the timing completely clashed……………now this is awkward.
“…………..i am going back”
“Eh, no, don’t be reckless…………”
She ignored me stopping her and started walking to the pool edge timidly.
But, after a distance………..
“Wapu!”
She started splashing around.
“She…………..will probably get angry if I help her…………”
I could not do anything and looked at Yukihira’s drowning back.
2“Fuu……………I’m tired”
After we left the lazy pool (Yukihira got saved by a staff and was brought somewhere), we headed to the food & drinks s.p.a.ce to take a light rest.
While drinking juice, although I was squeezing all my knowledge desperately…………..no good, I can’t think of anything.
“Ama-chi, why are you making such a difficult face, what’s wrong?”
“Onii-chan, wrinkles are growing in between your eyebrows”
“Got a stomachache?”
“No, nothing”
At the moment I gave an appropriate reply to the girl’s question while I was absent minded; A happy voice entered my ears.
“Ahaha, grandpa, let’s go play there next”
“Oooh, okay okay, I’ll carry you until we reach there”
“Yay”
An old man who brought his grandchild here to play……………immediately, the vision the president showed me just now resurfaced in my mind.
[Hey! Look at my nipples YO!------Look at it YO!-----Look at it YO!]………………the rap from an old man echoed inside my head over and over again.
I will become like that if I fail the mission huh, there are possibilities that it would be even worse……….just imagining gives me the chill.
“……………sorry, wait for 10 minutes”
I stood up together with a certain determination.
Now that it has come to this……………now that it has come to this, I have to plunge into using that secret weapon.
Thinking about the time to go back there, we have around 1 or 2 hours left and it looks like nothing is coming up no matter how much I ponder about it.
While making excuses in my heart, I quickly head towards the dressing room. I opened my own locker and took out that object which was stuffed inside a bottle.
“This is something I really didn’t want to use………….”
A really Chuuni sentence came out but, it was undeniable fact.
…………Yuuouji, sorry.
“Sorry to make you wait”
“Ah-re, Ama-chi, what are you carrying behind you?”
“N-no, don’t worry about it……………”
What I was hiding was a small water gun I bought at a shop when I was mid-way coming back. A special tear glands destroyer extract was loaded inside.
Inside the [10 ways to make girls cry] Chocolat bought, there was that disgusting act of pouring habanero kiss on a person face but, it seems that the way was at a good track and it gave me the complementing idea to create this tear glands destroyer extract.
It’s something with onion as the base; since the warning states that only huge amount of tears would only come out, it has no bad influence to the human body at all. I tested it out if it was dangerous or not just in case.
………..but, snot will come out. Snot will flow out profusely with tears. It’s enough to make the face mushy.
That’s the reason why I am hesitant to use this. No matter it may be Yuuouji, making a girl’s face covered in snot is just too much.
But…………….but.
“…………..Yuuouji, can I have a moment”
I…………will become a demon!
“Hn? What’s up”
I guided her to a pool area which was a little separated from Yuragi and Chocolat to prevent them from hearing. Okay, I can quickly take photo of Yuuouji’s crying face; no one else will probably see her snotty face if she falls into the pool.
Of course, there’s no way my actions would be forgiven…………….i’ll perform a dogeza latter and apologize.
“……………”
I silently took out the water gun.
“Oo, what is that, that looks cool. Did you buy it just now?”
“Yeah…………”
While feeling guilty when I saw Yuuouji’s innocent face, I took a step closer. Yuuouji’s shocking physical abilities will dodge it if I shot her at a half-a.s.sed distance.
………….Okay, I can kill her at this distance.
I pointed the gun at Yuuouji.
“Sorry------“
But, my fingers wouldn’t move.
Kuh…………what am I doing, if this goes on, I’ll end up rapping naked-------
“Choose:
1. Shoot it up your own a.s.s ※Stimulation 10x.
2. Shoot it up your own nose ※Stimulation 2x”
What………..the heck?
“What’s wrong? Ama-chi”
Yuuouji stared at me blankly while I was frozen pointing the gun at her.
“Kuh………….”
While my hands were trembling, I lowered the gun pointed at Yuuouji and pointed it my own face.
I then thrust it up my own nose.
“Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
3“Uuu………….Gusu………..gusu………..”
“There there”
Chocolat was patting my head while I was crying out loud.
“It’s okay it’s okay, Onii-chan crying is also good”
The breathing of the excited Yuragi was rough.
“Ahahahahahahahahaha! Ama-chi’s snotty face looks so weird”
Yuuouji was laughing as she wants.
“Sh-shurrdap!” [1]
“But, why were you trying to shoot that at me?”
“D-dat’s; I hab a siduation………” [2]
“Ahahahaha! I don’t understand what you are saying at all”
…………is this that so-called “Karma”; now I know.
“………fuu”
After 10 minutes, my tears and snot problem somehow got fixed but, the situation was at its worst.
Now that my only absolute method is destroyed; I have no plans left.
Kuh……..this is bad, this is really bad.
“Where should we go next?”
Beside me when I was agonizing, Chocolat was talking nonchalantly.
“Judging by the time it looks like we can’t go that far so, this is a tough choice……….ah, Chocolat Onee-chan, this looks interesting”
Yuragi pointed at a part of the pamphlet she was holding.
“[Water x Ghost]…………Aah, basically a haunted mansion with water usage”
“Haunted huh, that sounds fun”
It’s true that the attraction looks quite interesting but, I have no time to play at all. I have to hurry up with a way to make Yuuouji cry.
“Sorry I’ll-----“
“L-let’s not do that”
Right when I was about to say “pa.s.s”, an unexpected rejection came up.
“Yuuouji?”
What’s going on? She loves this kind of stuff.
“Ouka-san, you’re opposing?”
Chocolat also asked back with an unexpected face.
“N-no, it’s not that big like opposing. Eeerrr, I already graduated from haunted mansions. That is childish and I am not so interested in it”
“Childish…………”
I never would have thought that word would come out from Yuuouji.
But what is this. I kind of experienced this feeling just now…………..ah, it’s me during that time with the scream machine.
I made that lie because I was too scared to ride……..Hn? Wait, that means…………
“Yuuouji are you perhaps………..scared?”
“……………th-that’s not true”
“Hohou…………..”
I knew my face distorted disgustingly.
“Then you can go in right~~”
“Uu…………”
Our position is completely reversed.
“No well, we are already high school students so, i-I think it’s good that we go with games which are more…………err, adult-like; was what I was thinking and not thinking……..”
Yuuouji turned disordered. It’s not because I want to have my revenge from just now……….this is the chance to clear the mission.
“I-I don’t mind going in but, it’s just childish pretend………….”
“Ah, that isn’t a problem, Ouka Onee-chan. This place is really realistic and is known to scare adults with scared feet; that’s what is written on the pamphlet”
“Ah, I-I see…………..”
Yuuouji’s face was completely stiff. Clearly by her reaction, it’s definite that she’s bad with horror.
I don’t know if that she would cry conveniently but, my secret weapon ended with a miss and now that I have no replacement plans; the value on betting in the fundamental emotions of fear was big.
“Okay, then it’s settled”
“Ueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeii!”
Yuuouji raised a dumb witted sound.
“No no, that’s not something to be surprised at”
She was giving off the atmosphere of about to say “Let’s not” so, I calmed her down my tapping her shoulders.
“Ahyabeshiii!”
Yuuouji raised a death agony like a small fry in the end of the century and jumped up. That’s a scared pattern beyond my expectations…………I might be able to expect something from this.
Meanwhile, we reached in front of the [Water x Ghost]. The outer appearance gave off a scary artistic feel.
A Staff one-chan smiled and asked us at the entrance.
“It’s a couple I see, go on ahead in together”
“Ah, no we aren’t really a couple-----“
“T-that’s right, to-together! I will go together with Ama-chi!”
It seems that Yuuouji only heard the together part and shouted without hearing the end of the sentence. Oi oi, just how scared are you……….
Well, it will be a problem for me if I wasn’t paired with her so, this is really convenient too.
I feel anxious leaving Chocolat and Yuragi but, I guess I’ll focus on the mission now.
“………..Let’s go, Yuuouji”
“Y-yes, I-i will be counting on you”
“……………are you really okay?”
“O-okie dookie”
Which part of you……………….your character is completely ruined.
Yuuouji grabbed my hand and was panicking. She was completely afraid and was walking like a grandma.
It was dim around us and the atmosphere inside was coming out but, taking aside the fact that the ground has water flowing on the floor, the place doesn’t look any different from a normal haunted mansion.
“O-one human, two human”
The fl.u.s.tered Yuuouji was counting down something unknown while writing the word羊 in her palms, before swallowing it. I don’t know if she wanted to sleep or relax but at the very least, I think that won’t help her lose her fear. [3]
“Oh?”
Drips of water started falling on my shoulders. It’s a prop signifying that this is within a pool establishment.
Each time water drops onto Yuuouji’s shoulders, she would [Hii] [Hii] twitch her body…………..she’s probably the best-cla.s.s customer to scare for the people who are doing the scaring.
“……….Yuuouji, are you okay?”
In order to clear the mission, it would really convenient to have Yuuouji scared to her wits end but, I talked to her because I felt a little pity about who scared she was.
“Th-things like are you okay; I was never scared in the first place------“
“Gigyooraaaaa!”
Something jumped out from the aquarium beside us and interrupted Yuuouji’s sentence.
“Uhyaaaaaaaaaa!”
It’s ident.i.ty; is a full body green mermaid.
Yuuouji who got terrified at that grotesques appearance, was grabbing onto my swim trunks and trembling.
“A-auu………au………….”
“Yuuouji. It’s a fake so don’t worry”
“E-even if you say that, it looks so real-----huh?”
“Gigyooraaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
Another suddenly appeared from the opposite side.
“Uhyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
“Ah, oi, Yuuouji!”
After screaming loudly, she ran off before giving me any chance to stop her.
“Oiiiii, Yuuouji”
It has been a few minutes that I was moving forward while calling Yuuouji.
Found her. Yuuouji was sitting on the middle of the road while hugging her knees and her body was trembling.
“Hic……….hic………..”
………..She’s crying like a child.
“You……….why are you getting so scared from a haunted mansion this normal”
“Because………….because, I was scared”
It was the first time she honestly admitted it and she gripped onto my hand I extend out to her tightly.
“O-oi, hey you…………….”
Even though her att.i.tude is more childish, her expression wet from her tears looked really erotic and that made me look away by reflex.
Hn………wait………….wet by tears?
“U-uoooooooooooh!”
I-isn’t this situation the same as clearing the mission!
I really feel bad that she’s seriously scared but, I prepared the waterproof camera hanging from my neck.
“Uu……….Hic………..”
I’ll quickly snap a picture and bring her outside. The moment I thought that and made a stance with the camera,
“Hn?”
Someone’s finger poked Yuuouji’s shoulders.
Yuuouji turned around. What she saw was------
“Gigyooraaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
Yuuouji who turned mad when she saw the 3rd mermaid, hugged onto me.
“O-oi………..wait, heh?”
She then s.n.a.t.c.hed the camera from my hand and threw it at the mermaid with all her might.
“GO THEEEEEEEREEE!”
The camera that landed right at the mermaid’s grim face, made a nasty sound before falling onto the ground.
“A-are you kidding me!”
I quickly picked it up; even though it’s water proof, the camera which isn’t that st.u.r.dy, got destroyed.
T-the best opportunity………….
“Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh!”
Without even the time to grief, Yuuouji screamed and ran off again.
“Y-Yuuouji!”
I quickly chased after her.
“Ah found her”
Yuuouji wasn’t sitting down this time but rather she was standing still in the middle of the road.
I got closer and noticed something weird. Although her tears stopped, her expression looks empty.
“Y-Yuuouji, are you okay?”
“……………….”
She won’t answer. Her eyes doesn’t looked focused and err, isn’t this bad?
“Kanade”
“……….Eh?”
Wh-what did she just say?
“Kanade”
She said it clearly once more and gripped my swim trunks tightly.
“Yu-Yuuouji?”
What? What is happening here?
“You aren’t Kanade?”
“No, I am definitely Kanade but, that isn’t the problem………..”
Another word came flying out from Yuuouji’s mouth next.
“Piggyback”
“………………huh?”
“I am scared so give me a piggyback”
“No, piggyback you………….”
Her talking pattern crossed to another dimension of childishness; it practically feels like she’s a child.
Maybe this……………She reverted back into a child from the fear?
“Hey………..Piggyback”
There’s no way that manga-like event will…………..but in reality, the Yuuouji in front of me completely has the expression and posture from a child in kindergarten.
“H-here………..”
“Hn……..”
Without any choice, I lend her my back. Maybe she was really terrified; she immediately hugged onto me with all her strength.
Of course, the thing touching my back will be touching if she does that…………..
“Yu-Yuuouji, don’t cling onto me-----“
“Ooka”
“Huh?”
“Not Yuuouji, Ooka”
Ooka?...........Aaah, she meant Ouka huh………wait, she’s telling me to call her by her name?
“……………my father call me that”
“Father, you………….”
“Ooka!”
Yuuouji cling on tighter to protest.
“U……..uoo…………”
I felt the cl.u.s.ter of softness being crushed behind me. N- no good……..this isn’t good.
“O-ouka…………”
“Uun, okay”
She was satisfied and said that before relaxing her grip.
W-what is with this situation………….
Since nothing can be helped even if I grieved, I continued moving forward while giving Yuuouji a piggyback.
Maybe her fear got somehow reduced because she was getting carried, she was docile at first but………….
[Hii!] [Uhyaa!] [Scaryy!]
Each time she gets scared, she would cling onto me tighter so her breast would touch my back each time and I felt a living h.e.l.l different from the face of fear.
And-----
“Gigyooraaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
The attack of the 4th one.
“Uhyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
Just how much of a fan for mermaids does this haunted mansion have…………..normally, the fear would probably be lighter with this continuous chain but, Yuuouji was screaming loudly just like before.
“Fu……….Fue…………Fueeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”
She did not try to run because I was carrying her but, she started crying again.
“O-oi, it’s okay so don’t cry, Ouka”
Even though I was fl.u.s.tered, I tried to calm Yuuouji down. I made Manami-chan cry just now too but this situation is completely different.
That’s because, it’s a 16 year old girl crying on my back.
“Uu………..hic hic…………..”
I tried hard while walking but, Yuuouji’s tears won’t stop. Judging by the point of view of clearing the mission, I can’t say that this situation is great but, in my current situation where my camera is broken, it doesn’t mean anything no matter how much Yuuouji cries. It’s ideal that she can maintain her unsettled condition until we get out but………..
“Ueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee”
Yuuouji’s crying turned worse instead.
“Oh?”
A fork road appeared in front of me when I was moving forward while feeling troubled. It’s completely separated to left and right so it’s hard to judge how near the exit is by the appearance.
Okay, which should I pick---------
“Choose:
1. Go left ※You will reach the exit immediately but, Yuuouji Ouka will stop crying.
2. Go right ※The path is longer to the goal and is the parade of aberrant fear. Yuuouji Ouka will still be crying after the goal”
…………..i should pick 2 here; I probably can accurately complete the mission if I borrow a camera from someone after reaching the goal…………….
I looked at Yuuouji who I was carrying.
“Hic……..hic…………”
She really looked like a child. She’s crying because she’s scared; only that. Yuuouji really is feeling discomfort from this situation from the bottom of her heart.
………………after seeing her like that, there’s no way I can pick 2.
“Ouka…………..We will be going out soon”
“………Really?”
“Yeah, I’ll bring you to the exit so don’t cry”
“Un…..sniff…………I’ll work hard since Kanade says so”
She was still sniffing a little but, she’s calmer than just now.
I walked towards the left and after walking forward; the goal appeared slightly 10 meters away just like what the choice described.
“Uoo………………”
The sun was bright and it made me frown my face in reflex.
The staff onee-san at the exit came closer with a smile.
“Yes, good work in there………….”
However, she stopped her words when she saw me carrying Yuuouji.
………….well, people would normally turn like that after seeing this situation through their point of view.
“N-no it isn’t what you are thinking. Get down, Ouka”
“Don’t want to”
Just like what the choice described, Yuuouji stopped crying along the way but, she was stuck onto me and won’t let go.
“It’s comfortable here so I want to stay here forever”
………..It seems that her child transformation hasn’t clear out. Are you kidding me……….what should I do with this.
“Do-don’t be selfish and get down”
I semi-forcefully pull her off.
“Muu”
Yuuouji puffed her cheeks and glared at me. Normally, it can be said that Yuuouji is never angry but, her showing this expression is quite fresh.
“E-err………….”
The staff Onee-san, timidly talked to me. Uu………..she probably thinks I’m a pervert.
“………..each individual have their own taste. I never thought about [Uwah, there’s no way he is going with the child play in this public area like this. It’s at the level where I would commit seppuku from the embarra.s.sment]”
“You’re thinking something worse than my expectations!”
I couldn’t bear it any longer and quickly pulled Yuuouji to escape.
“Fuuu…………..”
I stopped running and Yuuouji pulled my swim trunks right when I took a breather unintentionally.
“Hn, what’s wrong?”
“Potty”
“Potty?..........Ahh, you mean toilet. There’s one there so go ahead”
“………….I can’t do it alone so come with me”
“O-oi………….”
Yuuouji forcefully took my hand and pull me to the toilet.
“………seriously. I’ll wait here then”
“Follow me inside”
“Bupuuu!”
I spurt out in reflex.
“W-what are you saying………….”
“Because, it’s scary to go alone”
It’s the continuation from just now huh……..just how scared is she.
“I know that you are scared but, there’s no way a guy can enter the girls toilet”
“Then, I will go to boy’s side”
“No, that’s a no too”
“Why?”
You have a 16 year old body. It’ll become something crazy.
“Anyway, a no is a no”
Yuuouji *Mu---* puffed her cheeks before shouting.
“Why won’t you go potty with me!”
“Wai-you!”
I quickly covered her mouth but it was too late.
[Oi, what did she meant by that……….] [Something about going together into the toilet] [Youngsters these days………] [I wonder why the girl is talking like a child] [Wait, do those sorts of play in your own house] [The-then how about I join in too………]
……………I always think this but, does the final part for these sorts of commotion always end with a punch line…………….No, I have no time to be thinking about that. Those cold gazes hurts too much.
“Mugaga, we arge gooe pottey toggetdher!” [4]
Even when I was depressed, Yuuouji was rampaging around.
“Wa-wait, just calm down there. Be a good girl and go in alone-----“
“Choose:
1. Go in together.
2. Turn (♀) and go in together ※The (♀) state will resolve within today”
Oi, what’s with that ♀; that ♀?
Don’t tell me…………..the dreaded memories of when Chocolat first came to my house resurfaced.
Transforming into a woman…………are you telling me……..to do that one more time?
“Guh…………”
The pressing headache attacked……d.a.m.n it.
“O-Ouka, w-wait right here”
I don’t even have the time to hesitate or to be sad. I will immediately go to jail the day I pick 1.
I ran towards the nearest building shadow to avoid being seen.
“Suuuuuuuu……..Haaaaaa”
I took a deep breath and made up my mind.
“……….Eei, do it”
The moment I picked 2, dizziness attacked me and my view turned white.
“Uu……….oo”
When I opened my eyes……..un, well……….how should I say this……….my body transformed.
My hair extended to a semi long length, and my flat chest turned into b.r.e.a.s.t.s. My swimsuit probably turned into one with high exposure.
I got closer to the pool area and looked at myself at the water reflection………….this is undeniably a woman.
“T-this is a nightmare”
I covered my face with my palm while walking heavily back to Yuuouji.
“Ah-re? Why are you a women?”
It seems that she instinctively sensed that I am Amakusa Kande. Even though she’s transformed into a child, her sharpness is still going strong huh.
“St-stuff happens when you grow up”
“Fuuun……..well whatever. Anyway, potty”
“Uu……..i knew that was going to be it”
Honestly, the problem wasn’t solved even after I transformed into a girl. By the point of view from others, it might be a safe if I go into the girl toilet with Yuuouji but, it’s completely out for me ethically.
“Guuuuu……………”
The merciless headache came again. What’s more, it hurt even more than before………….i have no choice but to go in.
“L-let’s go Ouka”
I pulled Yuuouji’s hand and moved to the front of the girl toilet.
No, I can’t------
“Uguuuuuuuuuuu!”
I let out a groan that sound like a phrase from a Moe character because of the severe pain.
“Are you okay?”
Yuuouji peeked at me worriedly………………no good, I am at my limits. I have no choice but to make up my mind.
Eeei, namusan!
The moment I stepped into the toilet, the headache mostly cleared out.
The reason why it isn’t completely gone……………….is because I have to wait for Yuuouji to finish?
I shut my eyes and covered my face with my palm.
“Why are you covering your hands?”
I am considered out as a human being by the point I entered here but; should I say this as self-satisfaction, this was the final and last line that must not be crossed.
“D-don’t worry about it and just go already”
“Un……….”
Yuuouji let out a somewhat unsatisfied voice and entered a cubicle. Good, she might even ask me to go in together if that went on.
“Fuu…………”
I leaned against the wall. What’s next is to wait for Yuuouji to come out and leave-----
“Err…………..is something wrong?”
“!?”
Suddenly, a voice that obviously does not belong to Yuuouji talked to me.
“N-no, errr, ab-about this, nothing is going on here so, so-sorry, pl-please anything but the police!”
I replied back unnaturally. C-calm down, I am not Kanade now but Kanade-chan. If I handle this calmly then It won’t be found out.
The female replied back in perplexed.
“Police? I don’t understand what you are saying but………..are you feeling ill? Your face is red and you’re sweating a lot”
“I-I am okay so don’t worry”
“Err………why are you covering your eyes in the first place?”
Well…….that’s an obvious question.
“I…….no, I, lo-love these kind of stuff. I get really excited when I enter the toilet while covering my eyes”
………..i feel like crying at my own words.
“I-is that so………..”
Should I call this a silver lining in misfortune. The disgusted girl stepped back and fade out outside just like that (Judged by the footsteps.
“I’m done”
Yuuouji talked to me there. Since the remaining headache dispersed at that timing, I walked along the wall and immediately retreated outside.
“Buha……..i thought I was going to die………..”
“How weird”
I’m tired………….nothing good happened the whole day today but, that just now was the most tiring.
“However……………..when will I turn back?”
I looked at my own body. It said that the woman transformation will be cleared by today though-------
“Hey hey, you girls”
Right when I was thinking, a voice suddenly talked to me.
I lifted my face to find, a group of 3 frivolous guys.
“Y-yes is there anything?”
I stepped back by reflex and asked suspiciously.
All 3 of them were blonde, has nose piercings and dark skinned; the triple conditions and it was hard to distinguish them. They look like those flashy guys that appear in old dramas.
Why did these bunch talk to me?
Impossible…………I think it’s impossible but……..
Is this the commonly known picking up women------
“Hey won’t you play with us for a bit?”
………..it was that impossibility.
“E-err, I think I’ll pa.s.s”
A chill attacked my spine. Yuuouji hid behind me in fear.
“Don’t say that”
“Yeah yeah, we are bored you know”
“Well in another way to put it, we are free I guess?”
All of them were grinning…………what is this, it feels so nasty enough to make me puke. Is this the physiology disgust that the girls always talk about?
It’s the same like when I transformed into a girl but, it seems that a part of my senses also turned into those that belongs to females.
“Uu……….”
The moment I was conscious about that, I noticed the sights of all the guys were directed to my breast.
“P-please stop. Where are you all looking”
………………that sentence is wrong if I say so myself but, things that are embarra.s.sing can’t be helped.
“No no, I think it’s weirder to not look if you are wearing that swimsuit………rather, standing here is going to cause problems so let’s sit over there and talk”
One of them suddenly grabbed my wrist.
“Uh!”
I felt electricity on my back. I immediately tried to swing it off but, my body froze and won’t let me move as I want.
Squeezing out that disappearing voice was all I could do.
“P-please stop…………”
However, my actions caused the guys to get excited instead.
[Uooo, just how meek are you] [How cute] [My turn to touch, me]
Don’t joke with me, go there; words like that won’t come out.
“Haha! Come on, if you don’t resist then I will touch somewhere more----!?”
The guy’s hand was. .h.i.t away.
“Stop”
Yuuouji who was hiding behind me the whole time, cut in between us.
“Don’t bully Kanade”
She glared at thy guy while holding my wrist with a trembling voice.
[Uoo, this girl is also super cute] [Why is she talking like a child?] [Isn’t this bad? I really like this type of girls]
This is bad………….the guys attention got directed to Yuuouji.
“Err, we really don’t want that so, please stop……I’ll call others if you are going to keep being that persistent”
Even those words didn’t have much deterrence to it.
“Okay sorry sorry. But you know, we aren’t really planning to do anything with you two. Once we drink some tea then we will quietly leave”
He placed his hands on my shoulder.
“uu…….auu…………”
My body couldn’t move from something that simple.
……….what is this, are women, living things that are this fragile.
It’s not like this is a slum city with bad security and there are also many people around here. I know that they can’t use force to do anything but; I could not get rid of the fear that is attacking through my instincts with that logic.
“You come too”
Another guy extended his hand to Yuuouji.
“uh-------“
Blood boiled up into my head instantly.
“Stop it!”
Right before the guy’s hand touched Yuuouji’s skin, I used all my strength and fend it away.
“Ouch……….”
The guy’s frivolous att.i.tude crumbled and was oozing in anger.
He could still smoothen it out at that point but-------
“Eii!”
“Guh!”
Yuuouji kicked the guy’s leg with all her strength.
“I hate you. Go over there, Beh!”
Yuuouji’s att.i.tude accelerated the guy’s anger.
“……….why you, don’t get ahead of yourself!”
The guy with blood boiling in his head, grabbed Yuuouji’s wrist.
“O-ouch…………….”
The moment Yuuouji raised a thin voice---------
Something snapped in my head.
“Don’t touch Ouka!!”
My body moved before I could think.
“Oh…………Gue……..”
My fist launched into the guy’s stomach.
Maybe the spot might have been too good, the guy collapsed to the ground and fainted with white eyes.
No good, I didn’t want to go that far…………
“Thi-this woman……….”
“Don’t look down on us”
This is bad…………..the remaining two got lighted with fire. What should I do…………….the moment I was prepared to protect Ouka,
“Help! We are being attacked by these people!”
Ouka’s loud voice which could even be said “Is this enough” echoed.
[What?] [It isn’t just a normal pick up?] [Hey, shouldn’t we call the staff?]
The people around us brought their attention here one after another to find out what is happening.
“Tsk……….”
“d.a.m.n it…………”
The two guys, who made angry expressions, did not even try to help their fainted comrades and disappeared off to somewhere.
“Ha-haaaaa…………”
The moment I couldn’t see them anymore, my body fully relaxed and I fell on the spot.
That was scary……….that was really scary. This is probably something a male would never understand.
“Eh?”
I felt something suddenly hugging onto me.
“O-Ouka?”
Yuuouji was hugging me from behind.
“Thank you for saving me”
“O-oi…………”
“I was really happy when I knew Kanade was protecting me”
“H-hey…………..”
“My breast are touching so get off” was what I was about to say but, I stopped.
Nothing perverted was born inside of me at all.
It’s not because my body turned female………….it’s because Yuuouji’s actions now is purely proof of her grat.i.tude and that’s being told through my skin.
I silently, let Yuuouji do whatever she wanted until she was satisfied.
4“…………….Okay, now what to do”
With her child transformation not settled as usual, I pulled Yuuouji’s hand and lead her to a place with little people.
“Ouka, it isn’t scary anymore. This is outside and it isn’t scary at all. Get back to your usual self already”
“What’s the usual? I don’t understand”
Kuh…………..
“…………also, I am still a little scared”
Yuuouji’s expression looked clouded. It’s not simply because of the haunted mansion, it probably includes that pick up just now too.
“Then, what should I do to make It not scary anymore?”
“Hug”
“……….huh?”
“The piggy-back just now was comfortable so, it’s hugs this time”
Oi oi…………I think she’s childish daily but, to think that she’s this pampered when she’s really a child…………
“Hug me hug! That princess one!”
“P-Princess carry? No, there’s no way I could do that”
“……….no?”
Uuu…………what’s with that upward look.
“O-only once”
“Yay”
It’s really embarra.s.sing but, I have to do it if this can calm her fear.
I made up my mind and lifted Yuuouji up.
“Uu………….”
What is this………….i felt that she was very light when I was carrying her just now but, now that I have the arm strength of a woman, maintaining my balance from collapsing was all I could do.
“A-are you satisfied now?”
“Nope, not yet”
No, this is cute tough…………10 seconds then pa.s.sed.
“……….Ho-how about now?”
“Un, I am slowly not feeling scared……..a little more”
This is bad, my hands are shaking…………….10 more seconds pa.s.sed.
“………..A-about time?”
“Uuun………………I’ll scratch my head for the finale”
“Huh?..........wait, hey you…………..”
Yuuouji’s head suddenly got closer and started scratching at my cheeks.
“S-stop!”
“Don’t want to. It feels calming doing this----eh?”
With my cheeks scratched when I was originally close to my limits, I could not maintain the princess carry any more.
[Uoou!] [Uwawa!]
I could not do anything and dropped Yuuouji’s body.
Also, i fell forward because my balance collapsed and I ended up covering over Yuuouji, who was on the ground.
“So-sorry. Are you okay…..wait, hn?”
I felt a really strong odd feeling from her expression.
“Hn…….Ah-re?”
And; Yuuouji’s voice clearly sounds different from what happened until now.
“Ah-re? I…………..”
Oi……….isn’t this……….
“I entered the haunted house……………and what happened there again?”
She’s…..back to normal?
A-at this timing huh………thi-this is just too sudden. Doesn’t this kind of event have a little premonition!?
Yuuouji looked blank and our eyes looked at each other at a face distance which was close to touching.
Thi-this is bad. From Yuuouji’s view, she’s being leaned over by a girl she doesn’t know off when her consciousness came back. Uu………..how should I explain this to her.
But but……………the situation was much worse than what I predicted.
“Ama………chi?”
“…………Huh?”
I’m………….back……being a guy?
“Eh………eh? Why……….is Ama-chi on me?”
“U-uuuuoooooo!”
I quickly jumped off her body.
“…………..”
Yuuouji got up next made a blank expression and was staring at me silently.
Thi-this is really bad……………I wonder if she thought I was forcefully attacking her.
“Y-Yuuouji, there’s a circ.u.mstance with this-----“
The moment I opened my mouth to try to justify my actions,
“……..eh?”
A stream of tears dropped from Yuuouji’s eyes.
“Wha……….”
With that as the beginning, tears continuously flowed out of Yuuouji’s tears.
“Ah-re…….Ah-re?”
It seems that it wasn’t done intentionally by the person herself.
“T-this is weird, wh-whats wrong with me, me crying is…………”
Which means; she was so shock that she could not control her emotions.
“Sorry! I-I didn’t meant anything bad. There was a circ.u.mstance I couldn’t go against………”
This is bad this is bad THIS IS BAD! What should I do? What’s the best thing to do here!?
I completely fell into panic.
“Y-Yuuouji, err……well-----“
“No, it’s different, Ama-chi”
Yuuouji’s tone was surprisingly firm.
“Eh? Different?”
“Un, Ama-chi was really close to me when I woke up………….i would usually run way from embarra.s.sment but, it didn’t feel bad at all just now…….i can’t put it in words good enough…….”
A complete change; her tone turned awkward.
“You know………things like it was fun whenever we talk or, whenever we make Sensei angry, err………..wh-whenever I got embarra.s.sed when you saw my panties……………every good and bad memories of Ama-chi…………would *baa* float up in my head instantly”
There was no settlement in her words, and her intentions weren’t conveyed to me. But, I clearly know that Yuuouji is carrying a strong emotion in her chest.
“Just now………..err……….when you touched me……..it was embarra.s.sing but………….i felt that I wasn’t displeased about it”
Is she talking about the time I grabbed her hand during that time with the scream machine?
“Also………..around half-way through the haunted mansion, I don’t have much memories about it but…..somehow, I somewhat remember Ama-chi working hard for my sake……”
Yuuouji continued talking to herself.
“All those emotions mashed together………..and it became warm around my chest area……..”
Even within her words, Yuuouji’s tears continued falling.
“Ahaha………even so, I wonder why I cried. This is weird, I don’t know, even though it’s about me”
Yuuouji, looked at me with her tears falling and made a satisfied smile.
“This is the first time in my life……I felt this”
I lost my words and looked at that smile blankly.
Such a pure expression………exists in this word huh.
“Amakusa-san~~”
“Uuou!?”
Suddenly, a nonchalant voice pries in.
“Okay, cut~~”
“P-President………”
“I apologize for coming in when you two are in a very good atmosphere but, this is probably the last chance for you to clear the mission~~”
“Ah…….”
That’s right, I completely forget because many impactful events occurred.
“Here you go~~”
The president handed me a digital camera………..is this person my ally or enemy; I really don’t know.
Well, I have no reasons to refuse in this situation so, I accepted it and pressed the shutter just like that.
“Okay, mission is clear with this~~”
After the president received the digital camera, she looked at the crystal screen.
“Oh my, you took a very nice expression there~~. I’ll print it out later and give it to you”
“No……….you’re willing to go that far but, I’ll pa.s.s”
I politely refused her offer.
Even without her doing that, Yuuouji’s smile will forever be scorched into my mind and will never disappear.
