Prologue

There’s no guarantee that it will snow on Christmas. Life isn’t some TV


drama or romcom manga, and when you’re living in the Kanto region, you
don’t get snow either way. Then again, that’s the trade-off for living in a big
city like this, so people rarely complain.

And now, I was walking down the street, with no snow, no white in sight,
during this Christmas night–all alone.

“Cold…”

Even though there’s no snow in sight, it’s awfully freezing. It’s like the cold
breeze directly found its way inside my warm coat. If I remember correctly, I
got this coat back in middle school from Shiya-chan. At first, I didn’t like it
because it looked so heavy, but she pressed me to keep it, saying ‘You easily
get cold, so you’ll thank me one day’.

While walking, I fixed the body bag I had dangling down my shoulder. It’s
already out of fashion now, but since I got it as a present from Miharu, I
treasure it nonetheless. It happened a few years ago, but she gave it to me
with a ‘Ordered the wrong item’ tone. This is quite clearly a men’s bag, so
how could she order the wrong item there, I wonder.

“………”

Out of a whim, I directed my gaze towards a window to my side, looking at


my reflection. Besides the coat Shiya-chan gave me, and Miharu’s body bag,
I also wore a grey beret hat, deep brown gloves, and a checkered scarf. It
looked pretty high quality of coordination if you ask me. But at the same
time, it felt like I was wearing a full-equipment of cursed gear…Although it
sounds pretty rude to phrase it like that.

Currently, it’s a bit past 9pm in the evening. Even without snow, the town
gives off Christmas vibes. Even a red fiat is driving down the street, albeit a
bit slower than usual. The red fiat I know would never drive such carefully,
so it felt odd to—Wait? A red fiat?

Coincidentally, the traffic light turned right, and the red fiat stopped in front
of me. And then, the door to the co-driver’s seat opened.

“Hurry up, Saigi-kun. It won’t stay red for long.”

“…………”

Almost like a deja-vu, Maka-sensei leaned over the seat, beckoning me in.

“Come on, in with you!”

“Y-Yes, I get it already.” In a panic, I jumped onto the co-driver’s seat, and
put on the seat belt.

Right there, the traffic light turned green again, and I was pressed against the
seat.

“That was close, wasn’t it.” Maka-sensei played with the shift lever, and
stepped on the gas.”

Slowly, the fiat started moving.

“…I know it’s a bit late to say that now, but I’m shocked you found out about
my location.”

“Today, it’s actually a coincidence.”

“Coincidence?”

“Indeed. Do you believe me?”

“Would you get angry if I said I didn’t even care?”

“Hey now, it’s Christmas, so lighten up a bit.” Maka-sensei complained, as

2 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
she carefully drove the car.

Well, I guess she can’t just blast through town.

“By the way, you look quite stylish today, Saigi-kun.”

“…You think so? The coat and bag are quite old, you know.”

“As long as it looks good on you, old and new don’t matter. It just felt like
this isn’t your typical type of fashion.”

“You could tell, huh?”

“I’ve seen your own clothes a lot of times now. Unlike your usual calm and
safe designs, it feels…adventurous.”

“Is that so…”

Well, I agree that it’s different from what I usually wear. Since it looks good
on me now, I guess my usual sense is just bad.

“…Achoo! …Excuse me.”

“Sorry, is it cold? This car’s air conditioner doesn’t work too well.”

“N-No, it’s much better than outside.”

“Really…How long have you been walking outside? It’s cold enough for it to
snow even.”

“…I’m sorry.”

It’s a fact that the inside of the fiat was heaven compared to the outside.
Sorry, Fiat. I called you a nightmare all this time, but you saved me this time.

“I guess a longer drive will be impossible then. Where should we go?”

“…Right, I want to go somewhere.”

3 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“…Are you sick, Saigi-kun?” Maka-sensei gave me a troubled smile, and
turned the steering wheel.

She was probably heading off somewhere. Anywhere is fine—or nowhere at


all, actually.

“Maka-sensei…I want to go somewhere we can be alone together.”

“Got it.” Maka-sensei nodded without asking anything.

She really is an adult. At the same time, I just wander through Christmas
night, unable to grow up.

Chapter 1: Maka-sensei Wants to
Play!

“Sai-kun, Christmas is around the corner!”

“It’s not that close now, is it. It’s barely December after all.”

During recess, I lifted my eyes from my notes when someone called out to
me. Right away, I met eyes with the criminal, Amanashi Nui, who stood in
front of my desk. As always, she had kept her blazer off, which led her to
quiver a bit here and there.

“Also, exam season is around the corner. You were absent a lot as of late,
Nui, are you going to be fine?”

“Urk…I-I’m studying when I find the time.”

Hmm…So she’s busy enough to actually search for a moment to study. I tend
to forget it at times, but Nui’s a gravure idol, and a pretty popular one at that.
I guess her stress can’t be compared to a normal student’s.

“Mid-terms were a bit lower than before, but you’ve improved a lot from last
year. I get that you’re busy, but keep at it, okay?”

“Urgh…Sai-kun, you sound like a teacher now. Can I call you Sensei, like
Kuu does?”

“Go ask her, I’m too scared to do that myself.”

“Uuuu…Kuu-tan’s so young, and yet she can be so scary at times.”

I guess that just shows how she’s growing up.

5 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Leaving that aside, I think it’d be better if you went to study seriously, Nui.
With the coming end-of-terms, and the end-of-year exams, if you can do it
well, we might just become third-years together, you know?”

“You’re still unsure about that?!”

For some reason, Nui showed a greatly-exaggerated reaction, which led her
breasts to shake…Did they grow again or something? Guess I can’t blame
her for not buying a blazer since it’ll be too small for her anyway.

“…Sai-kun, what’s wrong?”

“N-Nothing. More importantly, you should focus on the exams instead of


Christmas. I can’t look after your studies, but are you using Shiya-chan’s
special notes she gave you before?”

“Ahh, they’re really easy to understand…But, the words she uses are really
simple, and she doesn’t use any kanji…I’m not that stupid, you know…”

“I-I guess Shiya-chan was just extra careful, I’m sure…”

After everything that happened during the culture festival, she still continues
to be my private tutor. She’s probably worried about Nui as well, which is
why she went out of her way to create such personalized notes for free. Sadly
it looks like all of that effort is wasted.

“As I said before, if I can’t win with brains, I gotta win with gains, and my
breasts won’t lose against anybody!”

“I don’t think you should be screaming that in the middle of the classroom,
young lady.”

Nui however ignored my retort, and pressed her dangerously big breasts on
the desk.

“…So? What was that about Christmas?”

“Oh, we’re back to the topic, I see.”

6 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Of course, otherwise we’d be talking about breasts for the next hour or so.

“Also, aren’t you a bit too busy to worry about Christmas?”

“I don’t have any work then. Nor am I the kind of idol that has paparazzi
follow her.”

I wouldn’t be an idol if that would be my situation on Christmas. This world


sure is cruel…

“Ah, that reminds me. Let’s do it like this…Since I can’t run without any bait
in front of me, I just end up hopping on a taxi.”

“Why are we switching the topic again?”

“We’re still talking about Christmas. If I make it high in the next exams, I
want a reward.”

“…A reward…?”

“Yup…I want you to go on a date with me!”

“Let’s go on a Christmas date, Saigi Makoto.”

“………”

During lunch break, I was called up to the rooftop (and illegally entered). A
cold breeze blew across the roof, and a blonde-haired beauty was waiting for
me.

“That reminds me, President…Ah, no, Karen-senpai, I heard you got third
place on the national mock exam before. Congratulations.”

“Does the idea of privacy not exist at this school?”

“It’s not a rumour going around. I heard about it from Miharu.”

“I don’t remember telling your little sister about this…I guess I can’t relax
even after she left SID.”

7 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
I’m sorry, Senpai. My little sister is a professional information broker.

“Aren’t you busy over Christmas, Senpai? You must have the choir, or
become the leader of a gang.”

“This isn’t some American movie night! You really love watching old
movies, huh!”

It’s a comedy about nuns on Christmas, leave me alone! It’s never too old to
watch!

“My mother loves movies, so we have a lot of DVDs and so on laying around
at home. More importantly though, aren’t you going to do a prayer or
something like that at the cloister?”

“It’s not like I have an endless amount of free time, but I’m not a fully-
fledged nun yet. Our head nun is very adamant on girls being able to go on
dates during Christmas and such.”

“Really, your place doesn’t feel like a cloister at all…”

Together with Maka Papa, that head nun is my number two on adults I would
love to meet.

“And, what is it now? You’re going on a date with me, right!”

“I-I don’t see the reason why you would suddenly snap at me like that! And
also…”

“Yeah, Amanashi Nui probably asked you as well, right?”

“You knew!?”

“Of course, we talked things through in the SID LINE group. Don’t worry,
we planned everything out,m so it won’t turn into a double booking.”

“I feel like that only makes it even worse…”

Going on a Christmas date with two girls, won’t I get killed in the process?

8 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Not to mention that one is a popular gravure idol in her prime, and the other
is a prim and proper nun Senpai of mine!

“No need to worry. We’re not in a relationship where we care about the
details.”

“That’s the weird part…But, a date out of the blue…”

“Thinking about it, I never went on a date with you, Saigi Makoto. And, I’m
not sure if meeting you all these times back in middle school really counts…”

“Oh right, that happened…”

I was reminded of that past yet again. I forgot it again, huh…My ability to
forget things is getting stronger?

“Also, you’re not going to reject my invitation after agreeing to Amanashi


Nui’s, right!?”

“I-I haven’t agreed to Nui’s date either! She just didn’t let me decline!”

“You won’t change her mind. Saying ‘Nevermind’ this late into the game
would be too cruel.”

“Urk…”

Nui might be someone who wears her heart on her sleeve, always brimming
with energy, but even I’d be hurt if I saw her sad because of me…The
promise was if she managed to raise her rank compared to before, and I feel
like she would be able to do that anyway.

“Since you’re going on a date anyway, one or two people wouldn’t hurt,
right?”

“That’s hot how a Christmas date works, okay!?”

“I’m pretty sure you’re already used to this irregular environment, but you’re
oddly stubborn about the weirdest things. If anything, since Saigi Miharu and
Shiya-senpai dropped out of SID, you’re slowly going back from being

9 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
human trash.”

“I wonder if I should be that happy about it…”

Shiya-chan apparently talked with Karen-senpai, and left SID officially. Then
again, SID isn’t some public organization, so there’s no need to go that far in
my eyes.

“No need to fret, I am a nun in training. Even if you were human waste, I
would not differentiate between you and any other person. If anything, it is
my duty to save human trash like you.”

“So I’m already categorized as trash, huh.”

Sadly, I can’t even fully deny it. It’s really weird. In reality, I should just be a
normal boy who’s a bit rebellious towards teachers.

“…So then, could you wear your nun uniform on the Christmas date?”

“You really are turning into trash!”

“No-good, huh?”

“You…What are you requesting from a nun who values prosperity and
chastity…”

I mean, Seikadai’s uniform looks great on her as well, but the nun uniform is
the best. Though half of me is just joking around…

‘Class 3A, Jinsho-san, please come to the guidance counseling room. I repeat,
Class 3A, Jinsho-san, please come to the guidance counseling room.’

“…K-Karen-senpai? Did you get a tattoo or something right after your


blonde hair incident failed?”

“As if! Look, there’s nothing weird to see!” Karen-senpai removed the ribbon
of her uniform, revealing her chest from there, and lifted up her skirt to show
her white thighs.

10 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Her underwear was white from top to bottom alright. A black-haired beauty
like her fits prim and proper white best after all…Wait, hold on!

“I-It’s true that I can’t see any tattoos, but I can see all sorts of other things
instead!”

“Huh…? Ah!? Y-You, you’ve become a real tactician, I see! Making me strip
like this…!”

“Eh!?”

I wasn’t aiming for this to happen, though…Why would I think she’d


suddenly reveal her bra and panties just because I was joking!

“A-Anyway…You think about the date! I’ll…consider wearing my nun


uniform as well!”

“O-Okay…”

I was just joking, but maybe it’s actually possible? Won’t I get cursed if that
really happened?

“But…I have to go now. I’m so busy as of late…”

“Yes, see you later. I’ll lock the door, so don’t worry about that.”

Karen-senpai gave the key to the rooftop to me, and went down the stairs. I
feel like everyone’s pretty busy as of late.

“Nm? Not student counselling but guidance counselling?”

The student counselling room she visited during the blonde-hair incident. It’s
for people who need a lecture from a teacher for something they did, and I
was a constant visitor to that room myself before. The guidance counselling
room revolves around giving advice about a student’s future. It’s basically
used to talk about attending a university outside Seikadai, have problems
with attending Seikadai’s university, or have overall bad grades.

Karen-senpai has excellent grades, and she plans to visit Seikadai’s

11 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
university. Maybe it’s about a scholarship for the university? …But,
shouldn’t that already be written in stone by now?

“Maybe she’s worried about her courses…”

When we visited the university with Shiya-chan, she seemed mighty


interested in history courses. But, I guess you can’t choose that simply
because you like it.

“Not like it’s not my problem. Eventually, I have to choose myself.”

Talking about my strengths, I’m more into literature, but I wonder if there’s
any good degrees for that. English maybe…? It’s useful to have after all…
And, I figure that a certain someone would be happy if I chose that, but that’s
not good enough of a reason, alright. Maybe I should look past the university,
and what comes after that…?

“Urk, it’s freezing…!”

It’s a bit too cold to sneak up the rooftop now, alright. It’s not a great idea to
ponder about my future here of all places. Better head back to my warm
classroom instead. As for the date—I’ll think about it later. Can I really go on
a date with both Nui and Karen-senpai on the same day…

“………”

For a second, a scary thought filled my mind. But, way too many ‘No way’
scenarios happened ever since this spring, this can’t be possible, right?

Classes ended for the day, and I decided to leave the school right away. Now
that exams are right around the corner, so there’s no time to be fooling
around. Since the student counselling as well as English material preparation
room will be closed during that time, there naturally won’t be any
‘education’. It’s honestly scary how I’ve gotten used to it like that.

First it’s the exams, and now the double booking of the two dates…There
won’t be another calamity, right? I mean, calling a date a calamity is taking it
a bit too far, I guess.

12 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
My thoughts were filled with all of this, when—

“S-Sensei!”

“Guha!”

An impact like a ball hit me struck my solar plexus.

“U-Urk…Brutus, you as well…!”

“Brutus? Um, it’s me, Kuu…”

“I know…It just felt so nostalgic…But, it hit me in a different place than


before, so I guess you’ve grown up a bit, Kuu.”

“D-Do you think so? I only measure my height once a year, so I can’t tell too
much.” Shinju Muku—Kuu, tilted her head in a cute way.

She’s a fifth-grader at Seikadai’s Grade School Division, and already a


beauty despite being this young.

“Kuu, you need to be careful when coming here. There’s lolicons around.”

“You mean the people who voted for me during the culture festival?”

“Well, something like that…”

Having a grade school student win the high school division’s Miss-Con was
an unprecedented event. Nui even went so far as to call it a lair of lolicons.

“But, enough about lolicons! Sensei, where should we go on our Christmas


date?”

“The date has already been established!?”

The ‘No way’ event actually happened! Rather than a double booking, it’s a
triple now!

“Eh, isn’t that the girl who won the Miss-Con? Saigi, you’re a shota and you

13 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
still go for a loli?”

“Saigi-senpai really goes for everybody and everything. Miharu-chan sure


has it rough.”

“No, wait you two. My side dish is always Oneshota between Saigi and the
former student council president.”

“………”

The girls passing us by were talking about something very concerning. If I


kept talking with Kuu here, more weird rumours would start to spread.

“K-Kuu, come with me for a second.”

“What, is he taking the loli into a dark alley to have his way with her?”

“From a family member to a crime?”

“Maybe it’s the reverse and we just don’t see that part?”

“……………”

No matter what I do, the misunderstanding only grows worse…For now, I


took Kuu to a nearby convenience store. She had some sweet hot chocolate,
and I bought some warm tea, warming up our bodies.

“Waah…delicious. Thank you very much, Sensei!”

“Walking all the way to my school must have been cold, right? If I let you
catch a cold, Kouko-sensei would kill me.”

“Please let me know if she complains again, I’ll give her an earful.”

“R-Right…”

I feel like their positions as mother and daughter were switched.

“Ah, I remember. I received permission for the Christmas date from her.”

14 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“What is that woman doing?!”

“I also have a few words from her.”

“To me? What is it?”

“‘No cheap hotel’, she said.”

“The problem isn’t the price, alright!?”

It’d get arrested if I took a girl as young as her to a hotel on Christmas! Then
again, that would be the case even if it’s not Christmas!

“Eh? Weren’t we going to stay over at a hotel, and enjoy the night view with
a bit of champagne?”

“Kuu, let’s stop watching adult dramas with Kouko-sensei, okay?”

Well, I was watching movies as well with Mom when I was her age.

“But, since I got permission from my Mother, we’re all clear. Since Nui-
oneechan and Karen-oneesan went on a date, I was allowed to myself.
Miharu-oneechan is paying attention so that you don’t get arrested.”

“Nothing’s clear here…”

“Is it…no good? You’ll go on a date with the other two, but not with
Kuu…?”

“Urk…”

Tears built up in Kuu’s eyes. I-I know that I shouldn’t treat like a child, and
since the date with Karen-senpai and Nui is set in stone, I can’t decline her
invitation…Wait no, I never agree on going on a date with the other two!
But, making Kuu cry is not an option…

“T-Then…walking around at night is no-good, so could we do it during the


afternoon?”

15 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Understood! It’s a Christmas date with Sensei!” Kuu’s face lit up with a
bright smile.

The tears I had seen just now completely vanished. Was I just toyed with…?

“Ah, wait a second, Sensei. I need to report this.”

“Hm? Report?”

Right after I finished my words, my smartphone vibrated.

‘Alright, seems like the dates are decided! I’ll focus on my exams then!’

‘I will see if I can get the nun uniform ready as well.’

“………”

I didn’t even have to check who sent me those messages. I guess Kuu sent the
report of the date to the two of them…Now that I agreed to Kuu’s date, I
can’t turn down the other two. What a mess…

“This is the first time I’m spending Christmas with Sensei, I’m looking
forward to it!”

“…Yeah.”

The Saigi and Shinju Household were always fairly close, but spending
Christmas together was never a thing. Even if Kuu’s tears just now were fake,
her smile surely isn’t.

Still, to think I’d be going on a triple date on Christmas…There’s no way that


person wouldn’t be bothered about that.

“Sounds good to me. Have fun.”

“Eh?”

Later that day, Maka-sensei and I were facing each other at Maka-sensei’s
home.

16 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Ah, please have some of this, Sensei. You didn’t have time to eat dinner yet,
right?”

“How considerate of you! Thanks…Ahh, it’s my favorite fried rice with


gyoza, this is perfect.

“Yes, it’s without garlic, so you don’t have to worry about tomorrow.”

“It’s really delicious with garlic, but at the same time it’s a bother to deal
with it.” Maka-sensei showed a wry smile, as she accepted the tray I held.

On it was the fried rice with gyoza, and miso soup, wrapped up so that it
stays good for a bit longer. We’re right before the exams. I know that nobody
is aware of our meeting, but meeting a teacher one-on-one still feels a bit off.
That’s why I wanted to take care of things here in the entrance of her home.
In that, both Maka-sensei and I are serious.

17 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
18 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Just warm it up when you need it. If you don’t feel like washing the dishes,
just leave them in the sink inside some water.”

“…Saigi-kun, you start sounding like my mother. Makes me feel all nostalgic
when I was still a loli, unable to live without her.”

“How do I retort on that?”

My parents are living apart from each other, but they’re not divorced.

“Well, I’m out of that complicated environment now. More importantly, you
were talking about the Christmas date, right?”

“R-Right.”

I figured she’d be going rampant because of the three dates, but she’s
surprisingly calm.

“How luxurious, getting to go on three dates. I told you before, but it doesn’t
feel bad to know that Saigi-kun is popular.”

“…Even when I go on dates with them?”

“No I feel terrible. I’m having a lot of torules coming up with ideas how I kill
1
all these girls .”

“You were speaking so fast I couldn’t pick up anything, and yet I feel like I
fully grasped what you were trying to say!”

“Not good, the exams are around the corner, and you can’t even pick up
English of this level? If not for my position as a teacher, I would give you
private classes right now.”

“I’m really glad you’re the type who doesn’t give preferential treatment…”

During this exam season, she’s probably busy working from home as well.
That’s the kind of girlfriend teacher she is.

“Well, half of that was a joke.”

19 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Only half of it? You’re not that angry…?”

I know I shouldn’t be saying this, but knowing Maka-sensei, I wouldn’t be


surprised if she threw a fit now.

“Fufufu…I have work on Christmas, as always. I’m a slave to this society.”

“Do you mean a slave of the school…? Well, doesn’t really change anything,
I guess.”

“It sure doesn’t. The legal personality known as a school receives favorable
treatment from the tax institution, and is regarded as a public organization.”

Sounds difficult. Hearing her talk about this makes Maka-sensei feel like an
adult after all.

“Talking about that must be boring, right. Anyway, since I’m busy with my
own work, going on a date with you is but a feeble dream. However, you
should be allowed to enjoy Christmas, since you’re still a student after all.”

“…I always thought that you only get to enjoy Christmas once you’ve
become an adult.”

Not like you have that much money to spend. Especially as a high school
student.

“For a normal member of society, if that Christmas falls on a weekday, it’ll


be complicated. And the school doesn’t let you take vacation a full year in
advance.”

“G-Good work, I gotta say…Also, why does it sound like I’m being guilt-
tripped here…”

“It’s fine, just enjoy yourself.” Maka-sensei looked at me with dead eyes.
“However, curfew is 6pm.”

“Since when did you turn into my mother?!”

Even in Seikadai, who’s known for elite students, I’ve never heard of such an

20 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
early curfew!

“Either way, I’m sure Muku-san and Jinsho-san both have a curfew.”

“I would assume so, yes.”

Especially in Kuu’s case. Even if Kouko-sensei is okay with it, staying too
late is not an option. And, I have to stay as far as possible from any hotels. At
the same time, I doubt Karen-senpai can just come and leave whenever she
wants.

“But, what about Nui… I doubt her parents would be that against it, seeing
that they gave her permission to become an idol.”

“Saigi-kun, you don’t know about Amanashi-san’s family?”

“Eh? Now that you mention it, I never asked. Even though she always brags
about her three sizes.”

“…I guess I should be teaching her some femininity once I’m free of these
exams. But, I can’t just reveal the family situation of another student.”

“I mean, she’d probably tell me right away if I just asked her.”

Either way, I don’t care enough to ask her. Nor do I have any hobbies of
prying into someone else’s private life.

“Well, as a teacher, I can’t exactly overlook a student being out at night, but
since it’s Christmas, I’ll overlook it for once…Wait, Saigi-kun!? You’re not
going for a triple harem play at the same time, right!?”

“Why would you think that?!”

“S-So you won’t? Okay, thank god…If so, then go enjoy your Christmas
dates, I have my own date with my computer. Don’t be jealous of it, okay?”

“I’m not that narrow-hearted to get jealous of a machine…”

I mean, I’m happy that Maka-sensei is so forgiving, but something is off.

21 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Even if I wasn’t as doubtful, I’d be suspicious of this.

“Sensei, are you really—”

“Ah.”

Right when I wanted to ask Maka-sensei, her stomach growled.

“I-I’m sorry, how unsightly of me. Just don’t mind me, Saigi-kun!”

“H-Huh…”

I heard there’s a lot of girls who would be embarrassed about that, but I feel
like Maka-sensei has shown me much more embarrassing moments than that.

“Ah, I’m sorry as well, taking up so much of your time.”

“No, it’s fine. It’s my job as a teacher to listen to a student’s worries.”

I don’t think talking about SID is related to school in any way.

“Then, I’ll be excusing myself for tonight. Make sure to properly take a bath,
and dry your hair, so you don’t catch a cold.”

“You really are like my Mom…Mama Saigi…”

“Everybody just forgot about Saiko-chan, so don’t add another persona to the
mix.”

Thanks to the appearance of Saiderella during the culture festival, Saiko-chan


became popular again. Thanks to the upcoming exams, that fire cooled down
a bit, and I’d rather not rekindle this flame.

“Saigi-kun, one last thing.”

“Yes?”

“You’re going to give Jinsho-san and the others a Christmas present, right?”

22 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Ah…Well, I can’t arrive there empty-handed.”

It was quite the troublesome problem. I never gave a present to a girl in such
a scenario, and their characters are all so distinct, I don’t even know what to
give them.

“Then, I’ll help you with picking out the presents. Keep a day open after your
exams, okay.”

“Alright…?”

I mean, I’m happy she’d help me out, but…Maka-sensei of all people? The
teacher who is the antagonist of SID will help look for presents? She’s not
going to mess this up on purpose, right…?

“Congrats on surviving the end-of-term exams!” Keimi Shiya congratulated


me.

To me, she’s like an older sister, and a childhood friend. Of course, our
home’s living room is like her living room. She goes so far as to call it this
place her ‘Second residence’. I feel pretty similar when it comes to her home.

Anyway, the end-of-term exams ended, and today was the following day.
When I received a message from her, I was pretty surprised to find out she
planned a surprise party. But, rather than an invitation, she practically forced
me to participate, and as her younger brother, I can’t deny that.

“I already had a party with my classmates though.”

“You can celebrate as many times as you want, right?”

“Shiya-chan, you really turned into a party-goer after your university debut.
Also, can you really afford such a big pizza?”

On the Saigi Household living room’s table was a pizza, cut in half.

“It’s fine, thanks to my salary as your tutor, and the extra for Haru’s rising
grades, I can afford this.”

23 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Why!? How!?”

Shiya-chan’s been my private tutor ever since this summer. I don’t even
remember her teaching Miharu anything…

“It’s a great thing that Miharu’s grades went up, so this is her reward,” said
Miharu herself.

She sat on the sofa, pizza and coke in hand, as she had some of the ‘Pasta the
Italian Person won’t accept’. For the fact that she keeps eating and eating,
this little sister of mine doesn’t gain weight at all.

“Miharu, I didn’t get any of that reward.”

“Because you don’t deserve it? You’re not spoiling our new family member
at all, even though she’s so cute.” Miharu said, and looked over at the cat
tower, which was inhabited by our white cat Kagome.

Said Kagome had a blank expression on her face, just licking her paws. It’s
not been that long since she became a member of our family, and yet it feels
like she’s always been with us.

“Your parents are really kind towards Haru after all. Well, they know what
you’re like, Mako, and how you’d react when being spoiled.”

“I wonder…”

Well, they did press Miharu on me as they travel all over the world, but I
never once doubted their love for me. If anything, I’d be more doubtful if
Miharu and I even share the same DNA.

“They’re still spoiling you in their own way, Mako. I mean, you got such a
beauty of an Onee-san as your private tutor.”

“…Really now.”

I feel like they just chose the next best (and probably cheapest) home tutor
they could find, dear Nee-san.

24 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“That reminds me, do you not have any exams?”

“We have exams in the first half of the year, and in the second half. The later
exams start in December.”

“Huh…”

Never knew that the university had that kind of system. Sounds pretty
relaxing if there’s exams only two times a year.

“Hm, Miharu had no idea about that either. Honestly, since the range of the
varying degrees and classes is pretty wide because of that, exams must be
more rough than at high school, right?”

“Yup. Classes are either all-year or half a year, and the half-year exams are a
one-shot chance.”

“………”

I retract my previous statement, it’s much more severe than I thought. Miharu
immediately understood that as well, unlike me. Well, Shiya-chan might look
like a gal, but on the inside, she’s still a diligent student. I don’t think her
grades are going to drop anytime soon.

“So, how did the exams go?”

“Just a question on how big of a difference Miharu has to the second place.”

“…You’re pretty confident, huh.”

Then again, the last time she went up to the higher ranks with ease, so I don’t
doubt her at all. I mean, I told her to take it seriously from the beginning.

“I feel like I did pretty good. But, I already did great during the previous
exams, so I don’t want to get on a high horse.”

The midterms left me in the rough top 50. It was fairly close, but my name
was hung up on the hallway, so I‘ll call it a success.

25 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“I feel like most people are focussing more on the end-of-term exams. I’m
sure you can make it to the top 20 if you try, Mako.”

“Huh…Shii-chan, I feel like you’re the one being kind on Onii-chan.”

“I still can’t win against you though.”

I won’t deny what miharu said. Shiya-chan always teased me as a child, but
she was always protecting me as well.

“Well, the results will come up right away. Ah, this is great.”

“Onii-chan, wait a second. The teriyaki chicken pizza belongs to Miharu.


You can cut off a piece…or half a slice, but that’s about it!”

“No need to be stingy! Pizza belongs to everyone!”

“Even if you’re Miharu’s older brother, there’s things I can’t give to you!”

“We’re talking about pizza, okay!?”

I love teriyaki chicken pizza myself, you know! I guess we really are siblings,
since our tastes align like this.

“Okay, okay, your Onee-chan will give you a piece. Some coke as well!”

“T-Thanks, Shiya-chan.”

I was a bit surprised at that hospitality Shiya-chan offered.

“By the way, is it true that you’ll be having a 4P with Karen-chan and the
others on Christmas?”

“Pfffft!?”

That was close, I almost spit out my coke manga-style!

“W-What are you talking about, Shiya-chan?”

26 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“I heard about this from Karen-chan. I honestly don’t remember raising you
to become a harem king like that.”

“Miharu would like to hear about that as well.”

“W-Well…Um…It kind of ended up with them going on a Christmas date


with me?”

““With the three of them?””

“Urk…”

Both Miharu and Shiya-chan stared at me with dead eyes. Not to mention that
Kagome was glancing over at me, judging.

“N-Not at the same time, but in order…”

“That’s the kind of excuse some playboy would make, Mako.”

“Walking with the four of them would still be acceptable, but getting it on
one by one is serious madness, big bro.”

“Stop talking like Nui…Well, you’re not wrong…”

Either way, I can’t argue back.

“Ahh, this feels so exhausting…Normally I would just eat cake and chicken
on Christmas, together with Miharu.”

“How luxurious of you, Mako. There’s no other boy who could get a triple
date on Christmas eve. At least not on this earth.”

“We’re talking about a global scale now?”

“Ah, so Miharu can have the cake and chicken all to herself?”

“Hey now, you’re eating way too much! Also…right, if I go on these dates,
you’ll be alone.”

27 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Hey now hey now, you’re not thinking of declining those dates because you
don’t want to leave Haru alone, right?”

“…I can’t, huh?”

“You can’t. Now that you agreed to the dates, you can’t cancel it. I don’t
remember raising you into such a child, Mako.”

“Can you drop that ‘I don’t remember raising you like that’ act? I know, I’m
not going to cancel the dates.”

It’s not exactly in my best interest, but none of them would forgive me if I
suddenly cancelled the date. I figure that Nui would cause a giant ruckus,
Karen-senpai would give me a harsh earful, and Kuu might just start crying.

“Leave Haru to me, our English circle is holding a Christmas party, so I’ll
take her with me.”

“Eh, really? Are you going to pick me up in your car then?”

“Despite being the vice student council president, you still are as lazy as ever,
Haru. Then again, I don’t drink any alcohol, so sure.”

“No partying for Miharu.”

“Ehhh! Even though you’re off partying with all those girls!”

“You can complain as much as you want, but no university parties. You’ll
only get sullied by these beasts.”

“What do you think of us university students…Most of the people in my


circle are girls anyway, and the few boys are all calm folks that wouldn’t do
anything.”

“Are you sure you’re not just scaring them, Shiya-chan? They might just see
Miharu as easy fresh meat. And then they’ll eat her up like a wolf.”

“You really are doubtful as always. I wouldn’t take Haru to some dangerous
place.”

28 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
I do think Shiya-chan will protect Miharu no matter what. But, if possible, I
don’t want her to end up in that danger in the first place.

“Also, are you really okay with that, Miharu? It’s full of people you don’t
know, so you have to introduce yourself, and remember their names.”

“Hmmm…”

Alright, gotta show her how bothersome it is.

“Right…Miharu honestly can’t be bothered. And then, Kagome would be all


alone.”

“Hey now, don’t turn into a shut-in, Haru. You can just take Kagome with
you. How’s that sound, kitty cat?” Shiya-chan reached out for Kagome, who
let out a cat shriek, and escaped to the corner of the room. “Huh? You
actually hate the idea? Maybe Kagome is bad with a beautiful Onee-san like
me…”

Leaving aside Shiya-chan’s convenient explanation…

“The thing is, Miharu was actually invited by President En-chan. We planned
to do a student council-only party, with no boys allowed.”

“I wonder if that rule was introduced because of a certain someone…”

“Shiya-chan, that’s too cruel for the both of us…But, if it’s Enri’s gathering,
then I don’t mind. I can leave you with them. If anything, I’m worried it
won’t turn into a party because of how diligent they all are.”

“Miharu can just take a nap if it’s boring.”

Should you really be sleeping during a party? Then again, if she feels
comfortable, that’s all that matters.

“Huh…my little brother goes on dates, and my little sister has a party with
friends…I’m happy about your growth, but Onee-chan is a bit lonely now.”

“Can you not ruin the mood now?”

29 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Shii-chan, your mood switches way too quickly.”

“I can’t help it, okay? This is the first time I was rejected in my life.”

“………”

And now she’s on a guilt trip even…!

“Ahh, second that. When Miharu lost in the election and got rejected by Onii-
chan, she couldn’t eat much for a while.”

“Even back when I was the asocial type of girl in high school, I was
confessed to countless times. After my university debut, that number only
went up many more times. And yet I get rejected by some high school boy,
isn’t that too cruel?”

“Hey now, no need to insult me!”

It’s not like I don’t feel bad, okay! Also, don’t just say that while munching
on your pizza!

“Miharu, you were eating food just fine even after the election, right! You
even got top grades in the following exams!”

“You don’t understand a woman’s heart at all, Onii-chan.”

“Same for you, Shiya-chan. You came to tutor me like normal after you left
SID, right? Sure didn’t look like your pride was hurt or anything like that.”

“You don’t understand a woman’s heart at all, Little Bro.”

“Are you out on revenge instead of celebrating or something!?”

Was I just some sacrificial lamb for them to vent their stress…?

“Well, it’s been a while since the three of us were together.” Miharu added.

“Right. If not for the fact that I’m your private tutor, I’d only be coming here
to act out my revenge.”

30 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“You’re not even denying it now…”

Is Kagome my only ally here? But, she’s been quiet this entire time, so I can’t
fully count on that.

“I was joking, okay. I’m not really angry. Right, Haru?”

“Of course. Miharu will stay as your cute little sister even after getting
rejected.”

“…Aren’t all parties supposed to laugh when you tell a joke?”

“Don’t worry about that. Anyway, we’re allowed to tail you on your
Christmas dates, right?”

“Miharu has her OPS as well. No need to worry about losing him in the
crowd. With the newest update, the camera of his phone can take videos and
pictures as well.”

“Don’t just move the story forward! Also, Miharu, stop wasting your talent
on something like this!”

“Miharu’s final goal is to create an Onii-chan Satellite.”

“…You’re as scary as always, alright.”

“Haru might actually cover for you in the future Mako, ahaha.”

“………”

I’ve always cared for Miharu ever since she was a baby, but I feel like her
income might be twice as much as mine in the future, if not more. Also, are
they really going to follow me? Just when I thought I finally could take a
breather from school…When will I finally have some peace for myself…

“Hmm~ Hm hm hm~ Ahh, the fiat is feeling great today.”

“Fiat-san, you don’t need to be feeling great all the time…”

31 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Of course, the fiat was as fast as ever. As a boy, I normally would be excited
like I was on a rollercoaster, but not when my life is on the line.

Anyway, Christmas was approaching slowly, as I found the time of the year
in the middle of December. Classes ended in the morning already, Maka-
sensei took the afternoon off, and took me with her on a drive. The engines of
the red fiat were roaring, as we drove along the highway. Aren’t you pressing
the pedal a bit too much, Sensei…

“Ever since it came back from the repair this summer, he’s been feeling great.
It seems like my money was well spent…”

The repair must have cost half a fortune. Although she saved another human
being, she didn’t receive any money for that, so the costs all came from her
own pocket.

“It’s fine! I am an adult! I’m so busy I can only use my money on cosplay
clothes! The repair is super easy!”

“Please use your money more carefully…”

I feel like Maka-sensei is blowing way too much of her money on cosplays.

“Money, huh…Maybe I should start saving for a lover’s nest I can use
together with Saigi-kun. I can have Miharu-san and Keimi-san pay us a sum
as well, and I doubt the cat would be against it. But, a 2LDK not too far from
Seikadai will cost us roughly 30 million yen…”

“Hey now, don’t go thinking of taking a loan for that nonsense!”

Miharu would try to get her kicked out anyway!

“Worrying about their own homes is the daily struggle of an adult, you know.
But, we need to think about other things to buy today, so let’s focus on that.”

“Please do…”

During our conversation, the fiat drove us to our destination, barely not
outside of traffic regulations. After Maka-sensei parked the fiat, the two of us

32 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
walked through the town.

“But, how troublesome that we have to drive all this way out here just for a
bit of shopping.”

“Can’t be helped, nwo that the rumours have finally died down at school,” I
shrugged my shoulders.

That’s right, today’s goal was for us to buy Christmas presents. However,
when there could be Seikadai students in the vicinity to see us, a teacher and
student like us can’t just walk around in the open. I’m exhausted of having
the same rumour going around. That’s why we made extra sure and drove an
entire hour over here.

“Yeah, I would rather pass up on trouble like that. With a disguise like this,
things should be fine.” Maka-sensei said, looking down at herself.

She wore a plain beige coat with slim jeans, and a scarf that hid half of her
face. It was greatly different from the suit or casual style she showed at
school. She even had half-frame glasses on, making her disguise perfect—or
so I’d like to say. Even with all of that, her beauty stands out, as she naturally
gathers attention.

33 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
34 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Same goes for you, Saigi-kun…that’s a disguise, right?”

“It’s a different coat from usual. I don’t stand out either way, so I figured that
I didn’t need a crazy disguise.”

“It’s a coat from Shiya-chan, and a backpack that Miharu bought before.”

“Even though you’re out with me, I feel so left behind…”

“What’s important is that it’s a proper disguise!”

“Well, let’s leave it at that.”

She sure doesn’t sound satisfied at all. We’re not even at our destination, and
we already got into a quarrel.

“But, don’t expect to be praised for your stylish clothes. It’s your duty to
dress up properly when walking with someone.”

“H-How strict.”

Dressing up when you’re not even that handsome feels like a waste if you ask
me. The clothes models wear in their fashion only look good because the
models themselves do.

“Hmm…Well, if you don’t care about the girls’ presents, why don’t we go
shopping for some winter clothes, Saigi-kun? Don’t worry, I know exactly
what limit my credit card has.”

“You already lost sight of your original goal! Who cares about my own
clothes!?”

“No, not at all. Saigi-kun, do you plan to wear your normal clothes on a
Christmas date?”

“…I see.”

She was totally right in that regard. I need to wear clothes that don’t
embarrass the other person.

35 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Maybe I should buy some tops and pants, I guess…”

“That’s what I like to hear. In fact, I couldn’t care less about the presents for
the girls!”

“That’s not something you should say with such vigor! Have you forgotten
that they are your students as well!?”

Except Kuu, I guess.

“Come on, I was joking. I told you I’d help out, so I will do just that. But, it
would be fine if I enjoyed myself as well, don’t you think?”

“I can’t tell if you’re trying to do me a favor or torture me…”

Well, if she wishes for it, then I take it.

“That reminds me, since your exam results were hung on the hallway, I might
as well give you a present of my own.”

“You’d go bankrupt right away if you bought presents for every little student
on there, Sensei.”

We got the results back for the exams, and I actually made it into the top 50
of the year, 48th place. It’s only two, but I’m still pretty happy. On a side
note, Nui also managed to improve her rank. She used every moment to
study, be it recess or lunch break, which had her friends worried quite a bit.
Not the best kind of friends, I have to say.

But anyway, now that Nui managed to raise her rank, evading the date was
impossible. That meant that I would be going on a date with the three of
them, so I need to prepare for it, and ready gifts. I can’t say I’m too
comfortable doing these preparations with Maka-sensei…

“Haaa, I’m satisfied~ That was the first time I got to choose the clothes for a
boy, but I never imagined it would be this fun.”

“The employee totally thought we were presents though.”

36 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
She treated us like an older sister who was ready to spend her fortune on her
cute little brother.

“Ah, I’ll be paying you the money now, don’t want to forget it later.”

“Come on…I told you I would pay…You’re so righteous with the weirdest
things.” Maka-sensei said, and accepted the money.

In the store, Maka-sensei was the one to pay. If I had paid for my own clothes
with an adult like her next to me, it would have probably embarrassed her. I
doubt many people in the store would have cared, but it’s all to avoid any
trouble developing.

“But, Saigi-kun, we could have bought something more expensive, you


know?”

“This is just enough for me. We boys are all the same.”

There’s a lot of wealthy boys at Seikadai, but I barely see any boys who wear
expensive clothes or have other brands on them. Since I grew up without
really missing anything, I’m not exactly greedy. I just chose what I
personally liked.

“Right, I wouldn’t want you to turn into some womanizer. Countless of them
tried to hit on me, and they should be glad I didn’t have a gun with me.”

“A gun!?”

“Oh, I never told you? I went through a bit of gun training in America.”

“I knew you were in America, but I had no idea you took one with you!”

“I was joking. I don’t possess a firearm. I did shoot before though.”

“A-A womanizer?”

“The targets at the shooting range!”

“Ahh, thank god…I thought that I had to report you to the police.”

37 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“You got some crazy fantasies…At least fantasize about our date right now.”

“This isn’t a date, we’re just out shopping.”

Oh, I almost forgot. We still need to buy the Christmas presents.

“That being said, I’ll only give you advice.”

“Eh, you’re not going to pick it out with me?”

I don’t mean to brag, but I have no idea what girls would like to get as a
present.

“It’s not like the girls from SID want some expensive brand objects, right.
What they want is something you chose for them.”

“…Woah, that was some proper advice for once.”

“I can leave, okay!?”

“Ah, I was just surprised that you only give rational advice when there’s
some sort of trouble going on.”

“That doesn’t explain anything, but…if you’re okay with it, then so be it. I
am a teacher after all, so I can’t tell you the answer, but rather guide you to
it.”

“Now that you mention it, that was your policy, right.”

I remembered hearing about that several times. And, since I was going to
give them presents, they were my responsibility.

“Thank god…I’m sorry for assuming that you would make me buy a gift that
would get hated by Karen-senpai and the others.”

“I know it’s a bit late for me to say that, but you really need some proper
education from a teacher.”

Well, my doubtful nature becomes especially strong when it’s related to

38 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
teachers. Not to mention that it’s pretty strong considering after everything I
went through.

“But, I was really lost, so I’m happy for any advice I can get, Sensei.”

“Urk…!”

Suddenly, Maka-sensei averted her face, and groaned.

“Your smile…it’s too dazzling! How can you be so rebellious, yet so cute at
the same time…! The gap is so destructive…!”

“I’m not purposefully doing that…”

I mean, isn’t it good manners to thank someone with a smile? Anyway, the
two of us walked around the various stores, as I received advice from Maka-
sensei. I still hesitated quite a bit, but in the end I bought three gifts for the
three girls.

“Thank godI found something…I just hope that they like it.”

“…Of course they will. Add a few tasteful words, as well.”

“…? O-Okay?”

I don’t think I even have this ability acquired in my skill tree. Also, what is
going on with her? Normally, Maka-sensei wouldn’t show such kindness
towards her enemy…She would never treat SID lightly like that. If there’s
one thing that’s different, it’s probably because she’s earnestly worried about
me. But, she still went out of her way to choose presents that would only
raise SID’s affection towards me…

“Alright, this is where the real deal starts!”

“Since we finished our business, let’s go home, Sensei. Um, the next train
comes…”

“Don’t try to make me forget the fiat!”

39 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Tsk, I thought I could avoid that hellish nightmare.

“Since I’m part of society, I can’t enjoy Christmas as I would like to…But,
even if it’s not the main day, we can still have some fun, right?”

“S-So it was a trap after all…?”

“I was left aside for most of the sports- and culture festival after all. I need to
vent out some stress…”

“D-Do you still have a grudge because of that…!”


2
“In revenge and in love, woman is more barbarous than man is .”

“R-Revenge?”

“Just this once, I will teach you the answer. These were Nietzsche’s words on
revenge, and it means that a woman is much more ravenous than a man when
it comes to revenge and love.

“But, Nietzsche-san wasn’t English or American, right…?”

I couldn’t figure out the meaning of her words, but I could tell that it was
supposed to be English.

“He was german. But, don’t worry about the small details. For now, we have
to enjoy ourselves!”

“Ehh…”

Maybe asking Maka-sensei for help was the wrong choice after all…

In this wide world, there exist so-called ‘Photoshoot studios’. As of late, they
offer cosplays for you to try out, even if you’re not an otaku. Now that I think
about it, Maka-sensei sure loves to cosplay, despite being into the actual
source material. But, rather than going to such large events to have a massive
crowd around her, she probably would rather try it out in such a small studio.
You can even buy the pictures and videos on a DVD, and take it with you.
Explains why they would make an entire studio for that.

40 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
To leave out the complicated explanation, Maka-sensei took me to one of
these ‘Photoshoot Studios’. This studio itself was located in an average
building in the center of town, on the first floor. That floor had several rooms,
all of them peculiar in its own way. A fantasy-type western residence room, a
Japanese room straight out of a historical drama, and even a classroom. In
other words, the cosplayers can choose their most comfortable background. It
would feel weird if a female knight stood in front of a TV or computer.

I can understand why people would come visit this studio. I always wondered
how these cosplayers got such high-quality backgrounds for their pictures.
Also, before anybody complains, I’m a healthy boy, so of course I would
look up some cute cosplay pictures, right?

“Still, this here is high quality…”

A giant fireplace stood inside the room. Although no fire was burning, it was
built with old-fashioned bricks, making you feel like you lived in Europe.
Besides that, the room had a luxurious wooden table, and a leather sofa. On
top of that, a small tree stood inside the room to create a fitting atmosphere.
Basically, it was a room perfect for Christmas. It must be a limited offer.

“Merry Christmas! Since you were a good child this year, Santa Maka has
come to meet you!”

“Figures.”

“Figures!? Can’t you be a bit more shocked?!”

The door suddenly swung open, with Maka-sensei—Excuse me, mini skirt
Santa Maka storming inside. She wore a fluffy red hat, together with a one-
piece that showed her cleavage and thighs. Her long boots were red as well,
as expected of her.

“I’ve seen you cosplay countless times already, Maka-sensei. A santa


costume is on the calm side, even.”

“Grrr…Saigi-kun, you’re not cute at all. Before, you’d panic much more just

41 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
by seeing my cleavage.”

“You trained me well after all…”

Then again, on the inside, I wasn’t all that calm. I can see Maka-sensei’s E
Cups right in front of me after all, and her white thighs look highly
suggestive. I don’t think I’d be able to stay calm even after seeing this 100
times.

“But, it’s not even Christmas yet. Why the Santa costume?”

“I told you that we can’t spend Christmas together, right? Then, today is our
only chance! These Christmas clothes cost me 27800 yen, you know?”

“Didn’t I just tell you to not waste money on cosplays like this!”

And yet, this is what she does not even an hour later!

“I don’t mind paying that much money. Your education is my reason for
living after all.”

“Please find another reason, will you…”

From my point of view, she’s an adult, but this is still a time in her life where
she enjoys her prime.

“…Being a teacher is like working at a black company, you don’t find a new
reason for living that easily.”

“Could you stop with that dry talk while looking like Santa, please?”

Seems like Seikadai’s High School Division really is like a black company.
Or, is it the entire profession as a teacher? That can’t be the case, right!

“Enough about that! What’s important is that I need to fulfill my desires


while I can, since I will be busy on the day itself!”

“Huh…There’s no cake or presents to be found here, though…”

42 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Since my original goal was to get presents for the girls from SID, that’s about
all I have.

“So you only give food to the fish you caught, is that it. What a bad trait.”

“Can you not badmouth me as Santa!?”

“Don’t worry, I can live off rice and sault if it comes down to it.”

“I feel like you said the same thing before!”

She better not be living like that when I’m not looking…Guess I should make
her some dinner once we get home, since she’s using all of her money for
me…

“More importantly, Saigi-kun, I spent all this money on the costume, so let
me hear what you think!”

“H-Huh…Well, it looks great on you. It’s really weird, you look like a noble
and rich lady, and at the same time these lewd cosplays feel like they’re made
for you.”

“Fufufu…Great work, Saigi-kun. Don’t praise me too much, it’s


embarrassing~”

“Decide on one, will you.”

What if I just start spitting poison?

“So, with Santa Maka at your disposal…What would you like to do?”

“…Sensei, did you go no-plan after buying the costume?”

“Urk………!” Maka-sensei grit her teeth. “Y-You did well seeing through
me…You are sharp as always during the worst times…”

“I mean, your eyes looked dead when you were talking just now.”

I haven’t seen through her Unobtainable Flower persona for nothing. On top

43 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
of that, I’ve been with her almost every day since then, so I can pretty much
guess what she’s thinking.

“Can’t help it…I really couldn’t help it…”

This beautiful Santa put both her hands and knees on the ground, clearly
depressed. That sure looks surreal…

“Anyway, I didn’t have much time to prepare anything…The preparations for


the exams, grading, showing the grades, plans for special classes during
winter break, and the field trip was moved as well, so I need to fix my
things…”

“That’s December for you…”

Let alone Christmas, will she even have time to live? But, she’s right. The
field trip that should have happened in the second term now moved to the
third term. Cancelling it was not an option, so they instead moved it. The
field trip here at Seikadai mostly goes overseas, but because of an abrupt
change of plans, the destination instead became Kyoto.

Surprisingly enough, not many people actually complained about it. People
from other schools might be complaining some more, but since we from
Seikadai are generally pretty healthy, we’re all used to going on a trip
overseas.

“Just because it’s inside Japan doesn’t mean you can’t have fun. But, I was
told to make a plan for 300 students for a four days three nights stay. If I
could do that, I wouldn’t be a teacher, but a travel planner!”

“You seem quite agitated, Sensei.”

Even though she was in such a great mood when driving the fiat. I guess she
was just excited without a plan for what’s after.

“Haaa…Even though this is my first time being involved in the planning, I


have to do everything with absolutely no know-how.”

“Maka-sensei, are you in charge of the field trip?”

44 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“I’m still a baby with only two years, you know? I won’t be given such an
important job.”

“Right.”

“…Officially, that is.”

“……………”

I heard that this phenomenon exists in the world of adults. I guess they put
their trust in Maka-sensei since she’s so talented. From what I heard just now,
it sure doesn’t sound fun at all.

“Haaa…How could this happen. I spent so much money on this cosplay, and
yet the plan failed mid-way.”

“That sure isn’t like you, Maka-sensei…”

All the plans she comes up with are usually perfect. It’s like her clumsy
personality is showing the more stressed she is…Then again, that’s what’s
cute about…Wait no. The more I relax, the more I might give in to
temptation.

“Then, what will you do, Saigi-kun? Fondle my breasts?”

“Aren’t you just forcing something now!? I won’t do that!”

Then there’s only the choices of me fondling them or not…I don’t like either
of these choices!

“I guess that makes sense. In a few days, you’ll have six breasts to fondle at
your own leisure, so my E Cup breasts don’t even matter right now.”

“Can you not make it sound like an established fact!? I won’t do something
weird like that!”

Did you forget that one of them is a grade school girl!?

45 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Haaaa…I guess the best I can do is please your eyes and sulk at how
talented I am…”

“Don’t sulk like that…Also, these clothes are pretty stimulating already…”

“I wonder. Maybe I did all I could…So the best I can do…is go all the
way…?”

Maka-sensei laid down on the bed, pushed up her breasts between her arms,
and took a pose that revealed her thighs. Waah…Because of her miniskirt, I
can see her black panties…

“Since we borrowed this studio, why don’t we take some pictures? No, that
would be nothing but a second-hand gravure idol shot from Amanashi-san.
There’s seven other girls besides me as well, so just thinking of the variations
to seduce you is too tiresome…”

“I don’t even know what to retort on…”

Seven people? Counting all members from SID, as well as its ex-members,
you get five, but is she adding Tenka-san and Enri-san as well? Also, wasn’t
it supposed to be education, and not seduction?

“This is pretty surprising.”

“Hm? What is?”

“Well, Maka-sensei doesn’t seem like the person who would come up with a
half-baked plan. Normally you wouldn’t even let me think during times like
these.”

“…I told you, right. I’m busy. I barely had any time to prepare, but today was
the last chance.”

“I see…”

Instead of pure erotic charm, I feel more like I’m looking at an exhausted
housewife, which is charm in itself, I guess.

46 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“It’s Christmas already, you know. Time really ran fast ever since I confessed
to you. Soon, you’ll be a third-year after all.”

“…? Well, the third term is pretty short after all.”

The only event I can think of is the moved field trip. And, that won’t take
much preparation on the students’ end. At best, we have to decide what to do
in our free time. Since it’s in Kyoto, there’s not many things to pack either.

“Once that third term is over, you’ll be in your third year. From there on,
everything goes by in a flash. I can guarantee that, it barely lasts a moment.”

“A moment…”

“Rather than being a third-year, you prepare for the following year after all.”

“That sounds stressful…”

“That’s why—We don’t have any time anymore.”

“Sensei…”

I didn’t even try to think about it. I only have a bit more than a year in my
high school life. Of course, it wasn’t that short of a time, and the days like
these will continue. Once spring comes, I’ll be played with by Maka-sensei
and the girls from SID again. And, I realized I didn’t hate that at all.
However, the time for my homeroom teacher to show me her Santa costume
is almost gone—

Chapter 2: Maka-sensei VS Black-
haired Prim and Proper Nun

Just what is Christmas even referring to? It seems like Christmas Eve and
Christmas Day have been established already, but for Japanese people,
Christmas Eve refers to the night of the 24th. At the very least, most people
treat Christmas Eve like the main deal. As for Saigi-kun, he considers the
24th the main deal.

“Nui, show me your grade sheet.”

“I-I have my own privacy, okay!” Nui protested with tears in her eyes,
embracing her grade sheet.

The 24th is the day of the end-of-term ceremony at Seikadai. Once the final
homeroom of the school term was over, the classroom turned noisy. It felt
awfully refreshing to know that this exhausting second school term was over.
And yet, the reason why so many students had mixed feelings and
complicated expressions is probably because of the grade sheets they just
received.

“I-It’s Christmas today, so I don’t want to be depressed for the rest of the
day. Sai-kun, would you rather watch some video on my Youtsube? I
uploaded a new video the other day—”

“I’ll watch that later. Since I’m your teacher, I’m more interested in your
grade sheet.”

“When was I your disciple!? Also, you have such a cute face, and yet you’re
not cute at all.” Nui complained, and gave me her grade sheet.

48 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
She might show a bit of resistance, but deep down she’s an honest girl, and
very easy to handle.

“Hmmm…”

Exchanging my grade sheet with a fellow boy is something I did several


times, but this is the first time I get to see a girl’s sheet. Though, I guess Enri
forced the paper on me before.

“Huh, you’re pretty good at sports, Nui. You got a 10 in P.E.”

“Hold on a second! That sounds like I’m useless at everything else!”

“I was joking. I can see that your literary grades went up, and you’re still
solid with science and mathematics.”

“R-Really? I thought you’d be angry at me since I didn’t improve much even


though you taught me…”

“You act like I’m some demon…But, with these grades, you should make it
to the third year. If you don’t fall down too much, getting to university should
be an easy act.

“A-Ah…Right.” Nui suddenly got teary-eyed.

“What? Did you give up on becoming a third-year already? Well, even if you
didn’t make it, you have a friend in Miharu once she moves up a year.”

“No! I didn’t give up on anything!”

Thank god, I thought I had to teach her some confidence as well. I mean,
since I’ve been looking after her since this spring, I can tell that she’s not
stupid. At the very least, we don’t need to worry about her having to repeat a
year, so we’ll be third-years together.

“Also, I don’t want you to be angry at me! After this, Mama, Papa, and my
relatives on New Year’s are all going to get angry at me, so that’s enough,
don’t you think!?”

49 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Your relatives…Ah, talking about your family, Nui…”

“Hm? What about my family?”

“…No, it’s nothing.”

Just as Nui said, it’s her private matter. I don’t want to step in too much. At
the very least, it doesn’t look like there’s any complicated circumstances
going on with her family. The newest and retired SID member, Shiya-chan,
has a pretty normal family, but Karen-chan was raised in a facility, Miharu’s
parents are barely home, and Kuu’s mother has a deceiving mother of a
kindergarten teacher—Well, I guess Kuu’s normal.

“Hey, hey, Nuippii, did Saigi-sensei’s lecture end already?”

“We won’t make it if we don’t go now. All the girls waiting to meet Nui-chin
are gonna be disappointed!”

“Ah, sorry! Sai-kun, I need to get going now! Schedule’s full today, and I’m
the cornerstone of the party!”

“R-Really?”

Well, I knew that Nui’s a normie who has countless friends at school.

“No need to worry, it’s a gathering of girls, so I won’t be cheating on you!”

“We’re not even going out.”

“How cruel! You didn’t need to be so straight with it! Whatever! I’m gonna
eat as much as I want, because it’s my cheat day!”

“Isn’t that something people who go on a diet would say…? Are you on a
diet?”

“Of course not. Because of the stress, I ate even more than before! After
dinner, it’s pizza time!”

“…You have a trainer, right? Won’t you get killed if you eat too much? Does

50 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
that person know?”

“I’d get cursed for my next three future lives! But, I have to go now.” Nui
said, and brought her face close to my ears. “Sai-kun, I’ll see you later. I’m
the star of the day after all.”

“………”

With that faint mutter, she turned around on her heel, and left the classroom.
Star of the day, huh…I haven’t heard the order of who I’m going on a date
with, but it seems like Nui will be last.

“Right, what should I even do…?”

I don’t even know anything today. Just to make sure, I have all the presents I
bought with me, but…

“Hm?”

I realized that the sounds around me vanished, as the classroom was wrapped
up in silence. What’s going on…?

“Hey, your woman’s coming. Everyone’s freezing up because of her.”

“…She’s not my woman.”

Tenka-san explained the situation to me. But, I can’t blame them…After all,
a nun was standing in the door step.

“Sorry for the intrusion. Don’t worry about me.”

That won’t work, alright…Not with that veil on your head, and those long
clothes reaching down to your ankles. It was the same person who came to
nurse me when I was down with a summer cold.

“Thanks for waiting, Saigi Makoto.”

“…Karen-senpai, what happened to your clothes?”

51 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“I went home to change, and came back again. I figured you’d be loitering
around in your classroom long enough for me to make it.”

“Well, you’re not wrong…”

I’m not the only one. There’s a lot of students still in the classroom, talking
about plans and all. She must have ran home right after homeroom ended.

“What a surprise, Senpai. I didn’t think you would actually wear it.”

“I have permission to wear them. I told the teacher ‘I will take Saigi Makoto
to our cloister, and rehabilitate him’, and they literally begged me to take you
with me.”

“Am I that much of a problem child!?”

Can you tell me the name of that teacher?

“H-Hey now, I heard she was a nun in training, but what are these clothes…”

“Even though it doesn’t show anything, it feels even more lewd…”

“Is Karen-senpai an existence brought down by the heavens to make me go


lesbo?”

Just when I thought the classroom calmed down a bit…But, I agree with the
fact that this nurse uniform looks awfully erotic despite showing no skin.

“These folks are awfully noisy. They better not be thinking anything rude
towards my clothes…”

“They are definitely doing that…But more importantly, what do you plan on
doing, Senpai?”

“Exactly what I explained to the teacher. I will take you with me.”

“…Torturing me?”

“I need to fix that tone of yours as well, I see. Just come with me. I’m not

52 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
taking you to the cloister, but to our facility.”

“H-Huh…”

Of course, now that I agreed to going on a date with the members of SID, I
can’t complain. But, are we really going to the facility she lives at…?

“Saigi, harem king as always.”

“…See you next term, Tenka-san.”

I gave a final greeting to the twintails loli. I really doubt that I’ll be in much
contact with Tenka-san, since she’s neither my girlfriend teacher nor a
member of SID. To think she’d insult me with her final words like that…

“I see that Kisou Tenka is in a bad mood as always. She should probably
come with us, and get some proper training as well.”

Karen-senpai gave Tenka-san a suspicious gaze. She’s always scary, so I


decided to ignore it…For now, the first on the agenda is making it through
Karen-senpai’s date.

The facility Karen-senpai grew up wasn’t too far from Seikadai. Naturally,
she walked to school by foot. Today would be the second time I made my
way to this facility, led by the cloister. After a few minutes of walking ,we
arrived at said cloister, which looked like a Japanese residence. Behind this
cloister was a two-floor building, where Karen-senpai and a few other
children lived.

“Karen-senpai, aren’t you cold looking like this?”

Karen-senpai was still wearing the nun’s uniform, nothing on top. During the
summer, these clothes looked awfully hot, but now it’s the exact opposite.

“Of course I’m cold. However, nuns always wear this uniform, be it winter or
summer.”

“Y’all are masochists, huh.”

53 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“We’re not wearing this because of our interests! Nuns wear coats in the
winter, okay!”

“So Karen-senpai is the only masochist…?”

“What happened to you…You were so cute a while ago…I’m only a nun in


training, you know. I have to live with the heat in the summer, and cold in the
winter.”

“………”

She sure is too diligent for her own good. I just hope she doesn’t catch a cold.

“You seem cold as well, Saigi Makoto. Don’t you have a scarf or gloves?”

“Ah, I stopped using them last year. I thought of buying new ones, but when I
wanted to have Shiya-chan do the coordinating, we couldn’t get any plans
together.

“…Well, she must be busy as a university student. It seems like Shiya-chan


was doing some great work, at least.”

“Hm? Why?”

Since she was mumbling at the last part, I couldn’t pick up everything she
said.

“It’s nothing. Let’s go inside.”

We arrived at the gate of the facility, where Karen-senpai opened the iron
door.

“Excuse my entering. Ah, do you have some events at the cloister by the
way?”

“I don’t think you could call it an event. We do have a catholic mass, but
that’s during the evening. I think the other nuns are going around preparing
right now.”

54 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Shouldn’t you help them then, Karen-senpai?”

“I need to take care of the facility myself. It’s the same thing every year.”

“Huh…”

Karen-senpai didn’t hesitate to walk inside.

“Only I’m a high school student after all. Since this is like a dormitory, most
of the management is left to my own accord.”

“It sounds tough, with all the children. Is Sekiya-san not coming?”

“Raiha has to work at the cat cafe. ‘Couldn’t get a day off, have to deal with
dead-eyed girl’s, she said.”

“Is that how the Nekoranya at Christmas looks like…?”

I mean, the boys are even more sad, playing games or browsing social media
while crying to themselves, you know!

“Well, Raiha graduated from here, she should enjoy it elsewhere.”

“………”

Doesn’t seem like Karen-senpai is bothered too much by it. I guess that both
her and the children here are happy for Sekiya-san that she found foster
parents. Leaving aside that she has to deal with walking corpses at
Nekoranya.

“This is it…We call it a lobby, but it’s like a living room.”

“Woah…this is amazing.”

It was a large room, equipped with a sofa and even TV. Last time I was here,
this room was filled with the younger children, right. But, now it looks
completely different from before.

“We’re getting serious for Christmas, you know. Been a tradition here.”

55 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Karen-senpai said, proudly.

The lobby was decorated with lights and other things, as well as a board that
said Merry Christmas on it. Naturally, they had a big Christmas tree, already
decorated. I could see the scenery of her putting up all of these things with
the small kids.

“At noon, we all hold a party, and at night, we walk around the mass. The
small chimps should be back home soon.”

“Um, Karen-senpai, what about our Christmas date…?”

“It’s a bit different from a date, but I’d like you to participate in our party,
Saigi Makoto. What do you think?”

“Ahh, I see.” That makes sense why she took me to the facility. “That sounds
much more comfortable. It’s been a while since I met all the children as
well.”

“Fufu, I wonder if you will say the same after being turned into their
plaything…?”

“……”

Right, unlike the diligent Karen-senpai, these small children are…

“Ah, Karen-neechan brought her boyfriend!”

“Did they kiss!?”

“I won’t let you escape this time! I’ll be Nee-chan’s first and last boyfriend!”

Talk about the devils…The small children all appeared in the lobby, causing
a ruckus.

“Alright, Yukinaga, Tama, Shirou. Especially Shirou, line up. I need to tie
you up before you can cause a mess…”

“Ehhh, Nii-chan, save us!” The boy called Shirou used me as a shield.

56 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
I think he said something unnecessary before, which got him an earful from
Karen-senpai.

“I’m not her boyfriend, you know? Just her junior.”

“Junior? Karen-neechan, you’re into shotas now?”

And now the girl called Tama added more oil to the fire…Even though
they’re even younger than Kuu, they hold such dangerous knowledge.

“…Karen-senpai, it seems like this place raises quite the distinctive children.”

“I don’t like how you nonchalantly added me into that mix, but I can’t
disagree…”

Well, they’re brimming with energy, so that’s all that matters. And look at
Karen-senpai.

“…Are you thinking something rude right now?”

“Not at all.” I lied.

I’m not scared of God and whoever could judge me.

“Wahh, there’s the Shota-niichan from before!”

“Karen-neechan is bringing a boy here while the others are busy!”

“She’s even wearing her uniform despite being told not to! Are you wearing
your victory underwear as well!?”

“…Now there’s even more.”

This time, five more children stormed into the lobby. If there’s even more,
then things will only continue to become more noisy…

It might be a bit late for that, but this cloister’s facility is known as the
‘House of Love and Prayers’. The highest number of children they ever took
off was 20, but now they have 15. Out of these, Karen-senpai is the youngest,

57 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
and the only high school student. There seems to be no boy higher than
middle school.

“Makoto-niichan, eat this, come on.”

“Ah, Makoto-niichan, your glass is empty, drink some more.”

“Hey, Tama. Cling a bit more to him, and pour him more sake!”

“…………”

Around an hour passed since the children from the House of Love and
Prayers came home. Food and drinks were lined up on the large table inside
the lobby, the children enjoying all of that. Fried and roasted chicken were
the main dish of the day, with sandwiches and gratin.To my left sat the girl
named Tama, with another girl to my right, as the boys shoved more and
more food on my plate.

What kind of service is this?

“Hahaha, it seems like these small shrimps took a great liking to you, Saigi
Makoto.”

“…I wonder.”

Karen-senpai still wore her nun’s uniform, sitting across the table. From what
I heard, she made the majority of this food. Even that chicken, which is still
fresh. I offered to help out, but Karen-senpai rejected me with a ‘If I let a
guest help, I’ll get an earful from the others’. Thanks to that, I’m being
treated like a customer by these small kids.

“The children here are working really hard. Can I bring my little sister here
for some training?”

“Feel free to send her here during winter break, we’ll do our best.” Karen-
senpai let out a snicker.

It seems like she’s in a good mood for now. Actually, she’s pretty different
from the Senpai at school, like she’s totally relaxed. This might be the first

58 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
time I’ve seen her this relaxed. The stiff and slackless Karen-senpai isn’t half
bad either, but when she acts like a girl her age, and shows an innocent smile,
it feels fresh.

“W-What is it? You’re staring at my face quite a bit.”

“A-Ah. I’m sorry, I was just surprised to see you smile like that.”

“…I-It’s the same as always, right? I’m a human, so I smiled. But, enough
about that, just keep eating. Leaving anything on your plate is forbidden
around here, you know?”

Karen-senpai blushed ever so slightly, and pushed some cake on my plate. I


don’t see a reason why she would need to be this flustered. Now that I think
about it, I might be the only person who saw Karen-senpai at home like this.

“It’s delicious. Did you make this cake as well?”

“Indeed, it’s a bûche de Noël, a template cake on Christmas in France. I


learned about it from a nun that has French roots.”

“Huh.”

The brown cake, looking like a round log, is something I had seen before, but
never actually tried. At home, we always get Miharu’s favorite strawberry
shortcake after all.

“I was wondering what it would taste like, but it’s normal chocolate, right.”

“I gave it a sweet taste after all…Ah, hey! Don’t steal from other people’s
plates! I’ll give you some of my share…”

I see, it makes sense that the small children would like the sweet taste.
Everyone is enthusiastically eating the cake, even trying to steal from the
others around them.

“I think Miharu would take a great liking to this. Maybe I should make this
cake next year as well.”

59 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Then, Makoto-niichan and Karen-neechan can just make it here together!”

“Idiot, Karen-neechan will go to university next year, so she won’t be here!”

“Ehh, but Iroha-neechan’s food is super bad…”

This Iroha-chan is a girl in middle school, second oldest after Karen-senpai.


Said Karen-senpai pulled on the boy’s cheek who just said that, and
explained to me how to make the cake. I see, you can only stay here up to
high school. Next year during Christmas, Karen-senpai won’t be here…

“Wait? Since Senpai is going to attend Seikadai’s university, you won’t be


living that far away, right?”

“Ahh, right! So my time hasn’t come yet…I was ready to form my army like
Kuroda Kanbei.”

“Are you interested in early-Edo history or something?”

Maybe she got it from Karen-senpai.

“Wait, Iroha. Kanbei managed to achieve a lot, but reigning the world was
impossible even for him. On top of him lacking firepower, he had no name in
the eyes of the other feudal lords. The Mitsunari Regime might have had
more power then.”

“Karen-senpai, let’s not start a history lecture during a Christmas party!”

See, the smaller children couldn’t care less!

“Ah, right. Alright, I guess I should make more chicken then.”

“Even more!?”

I’m already full if you ask me! And yet, the children are happy. I guess they
can still fit some more in there.

“…Let me help you, I’d like these chimps to have a taste of my cooking as
well.”

60 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Ohhh! Makoto-niichan is out to win over Karen-neechan through her
stomach!”

“Nii-chan, show us your skill!”

“Can you satisfy our tongues, I wonder?”

“Leave it to me, I’m used to a picky eater because of my little sister.”

Miharu loves any kind of instant food, but she’s awfully picky when it comes
to cooking.

“I don’t like the idea of having my guest cook for me, but if you are that
adamant on it, then I will let you.”

“Got it, Senpai.”

She guided me to the kitchen. It was clear that the kitchen had been used for a
while, but it was still pretty clean.

“Sorry that it’s so old-fashioned. The others wanted to renovate it, but the
money and time is lacking.”

“It’s fine, I can use this. Can I borrow some of your tools?”

I received an apron from Karen-senpai, and started the cooking after washing
my hands. At the same time, I asked Senpai about the likes and dislikes of the
children. Thankfully they didn’t have any special tastes, so I had free reigns.

“We still have some more chicken, so I’ll make it some toriniku saute. It’s
one of Miharu’s favorites.”

“Aren’t you spoiling your little sister a bit too much…?”

I couldn’t disagree at all, so I just smiled. SInce it’s a recipe I have in the
back of my head, I proceeded smoothly. The kitchen knife’s pretty old, but it
still works a treat.

“It’s rare to see a boy at Seikadai be able to cook. You really are weird, Saigi

61 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Makoto.”

“I was just forced to. And, we often escape to fast food as well.”

Miharu is as annoying to handle as three people together, but she barely


moves around, so that’s a plus at least. I wouldn’t be able to look after all
these children.

“…Sorry about this, Saigi Makoto.”

“Eh?”

“I called it a Christmas date, and yet I have you look after the children.”

“Don’t worry, this is much more comfortable for me.”

“You’re twisted to the core, and yet you know the right words, huh.” Karen-
senpai let out a snicker. “I really wanted to dress up neatly and walked
around the city at night, but I don’t think that would fit the image of Jinsho
Karen.”

“…It sure doesn’t yeah.”

“Can’t you at least disagree a little bit!?”

“I-I’m joking. I was just thinking that, if you walked down the streets dressed
up, all the man would look after you, and you’d end up destroying countless
couples on Christmas.”

“That makes it sound like I’m the devil…”

That was a joke as well…This is supposed to be the House of Love and


Prayers, so can you not look at me like an assassin?

“Well, it’s fine. Christmas is Christmas, so I will forgive you…But, I really


wanted you to see what I was really like.”

“…I do call you with Senpai right now, but deep inside, you’re still
‘President Karen’ to me. Respected by everyone, a bit scary, but still a wise

62 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
beauty, that’s who you are.”

“Y-You…First you insult me, and then you throw those words at me…Stop it
already, you’re embarrassing me…!”

President Karen—No, Senpai’s head burned up beet red, as steam came from
her forehead. Did I say something weird like that…?

“I-I’ll go check up on the others! Be careful with the fire! A-And with the
knives as well! Call me if anything happened!”

“………”

Karen-senpai returned to the lobby. She sure is…protective? Since I was


raised with barely any parental attention, this sure feels fresh.

“Ah, gotta focus on the cooking. Everyone seems like they can eat some
more, so I gotta hurry.”

“No need to worry, our children can all wait proper.y”

“They’re not dogs, so…Wait, who?!”

Suddenly, someone else stood next to me, wearing a similar uniform like
Karen-senpai did. In a panic, I turned around, and spotted a girl that was
barely 150cm tall.

“My name is Sister Eva. Call me Eva-chan please.”

“E-Eva-chan?”

She sure doesn’t look Japanese. Karen-senpai mentioned that there was a nun
with French roots, so maybe it’s her? She had blue eyes, long chestnut-
colored hair, almost looking brown, and had it tied up behind her back.

“You must be the junior Karen-san always talks about. The one who left their
modesty in middle school, and despite having bad grades actually has big
breasts.”

63 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“That’s a different junior!”

What breasts is she talking about?! Also, how bad of an impression does she
have of Nui!

“Ah, really? Then might you be Saigi Makoto, the rebellious and cheeky
shota who doesn’t lose when it comes to being doubtful?”

“That sounded like some professional soccer player introduction…”

This person definitely has another source of information besides Karen-


senpai…Maybe it’s because this place is close to Seikadai, so they hear the
rumours.

“Ah, I am cat buddies with the vice principal of Seikadai.”

“Cat buddies.”

Well, there’s the other source. This Eva-san looks like she’s barely in her
twenties, so how…

“Leaving that aside, I’m happy that you get along with Karen-senpai. You
were the person who saved her back in middle school, right?”

“It wasn’t that big of a deal…”

“No no no, we had a lot of trouble dealing with Karen-san back then. A while
back, it even felt like the devil had returned.”

“What might you be talking about…”

Even now, that incident is a hot button issue at school.

“You are the Saigi-san who helped exorcise that devil, right? Won’t you join
our cloister? It’s free, you know?”

“Could you not invite me to a girl cloister like that?”

“But, Saiko-chan…”

64 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Don’t say that name! She died, and will never come back!”

Damn it, why does she know so much!

“Don’t worry, Jeanne D’Arc has received her punishment for dressing like a
man, but we allow crossdressing as a girl here.”

“That is some crazy freedom you have there…”

The leader of this cloister here probably needs to reevaluate their rules.

“The children living here all have lived through difficult environments.”

“Eh?”

“It was the same for Karen-san. Of course, I cannot give you any details.”

“…Yes, I have heard that she has no relatives.”

Karen-senpai didn’t seem like she wanted to hide it, but she equally didn’t
feel too motivated to talk. That’s why I never bothered to question her. I do
love teasing her, but I don’t want to be hated.

“I’ve seen it many times. Children with hopes and dreams are cast aside,
ending up here. The Karen-san during middle school was the same.”

“…But, Karen-senpai worked hard, and found her hope.”

“That’s right. Karen-san is actually quite the hard worker. Getting top grades
at a school like Seikadai should be impossible if you don’t put in a lot of
effort.”

Well, there’s a certain first-year who happens to get top grades despite
showing no effort whatsoever. But…I guess she’s an exception.

“It is just as you say. I want these children here to find hope. No matter the
shape, I want them to grasp a reason to live, and eventually leave this home.”

65 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Eva-san probably feels that way from the bottom of her heart. She probably
showers them with love like they were her own children.

“The hope Karen-san has grasped is something gigantic. It might even be too
large for her own good. After all, the children here aren’t used to holding
hope.”

“………”

Since I don’t know them too well, I might not be able to see it, but as for this
nun, who had lived with them all this time, she might just see something
different.

“…I don’t think I understand Karen-senpai as much as you do, Eva-san.


However, the President Karen I know is ready to grasp whatever hope she
can find.”

“I understand. Then, leave the marriage ceremony to me, Saigi-san.”

“Where did that come from!?”

I was just praising her, not asking for her hand in marriage!

“Our cloister might be small, but it should have enough room for a fully-
fledged ceremony.”

“That’s not the problem here!”

“We do live according to the virgin road, but if the act has been done already,
then we need you to take responsibility—”

“Enough about that! Director, what are you talking about behind my back!?”
The one who came storming into the kitchen was Karen-senpai.

“Karen-san, eavesdropping is not something I can appreciate. He will doubt


my education.”

“You say, but you…Nevermind. Just look at Saigi Makoto, he’s clearly
bothered by this!”

66 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“…Huh? Sister Eva-san? Director?”

“Indeed, I am the director of this facility. Just as I stated previously.”

“You never did!”

Since she looked super young, I figured she must be a person around the
same age as Karen-senpai. But, she does seem like the person Karen-senpai
described her to be.

“Director, I am happy about your worries, but you don’t need to bother Saigi
Makoto like this! The food is done, so let’s eat, how about that!”

“Ehh, everyone is still working, and as the one responsible in this home, I
have to watch over everyone. And, I need to meddle with the little ones.”

“Enough of that!” Karen-senpai pushed Eva-san’s back, out of the kitchen.

In the end, I still couldn’t figure out her age.

“Hey, Karen-san. I understand that you want to show how you usually are at
home, but are you fine with that?”

“…………”

Karen-senpai’s movement abruptly stopped. I guess that the words of an


existence resembling a mother must be heavy for her.

“…Saigi Makoto, once we’re done eating, can I have a bit of your time?”

“Y-Yes.”

When I nodded, Karen-senpai started blushing again. Watching the two of us,
Eva-san showed a satisfied smile.

Under the condition that we could use it for ten minutes, the cloister was
opened for us. Of course, this being Christmas Eve, the nuns here must be as
busy as never. That’s why I’m really thankful they went out of their way to
give us ten minutes.

67 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Welcome, Saigi Makoto. This is your first time here, right?”

“Well, I always thought that a church—a cloister didn’t have anything to do


with me.”

We found ourselves inside a cloister—more accurately, at the altar in the


depths that looked like it was used for a marriage ceremony. Even to me, who
wasn’t exactly religious, this scenery was awe-inspiring.

“What the director said is right. Showing you how I was at home was a good
idea, but I’m worried if that might be enough.”

“…I had fun. The children were a bit annoy—Noisy, but they’re all nice
people.”

“You didn’t fix your words. But, thanks for saying that. To me, they are my
cute little brothers and sisters.”

“I can tell that they think highly of you, Senpai. If I was growing up here, I
would cling to you all the time.”

“Urk, a life day and night with Saigi Makoto…S-Stop! This is a holy place,
don’t seduce me!”

“Did I say something weird like that?”

I was being serious about that…I like being spoiled after all, look at Shiya-
chan.

“Enough about that. We only have ten minutes here.”

“What do you plan on doing here? Don’t tell me…a-a marriage ceremony?”

“As if! Just to let you know, but I’m the most reasonable out of every other
girl around you!”

“Huh…”

I mean, Maka-sensei knows common sense, right?

68 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Also, you’re only 17 right now, Saigi Makoto, you cannot legally get
married.”

“That suddenly turned pretty serious…But, very much like you, Karen-
senpai.”

So would she tie me up to get married with me once the problem of age was
gone…? With everything that happened in the past year, that might just
happen.

“We can’t get married, and I am a nun in training. I cannot give you anything
more than my lips.”

“………”

So the lips are okay?

“However, there is one thing—I would like to bestow upon you on this holy
day.”

“S-Something you want to bestow upon me…?”

“D-Don’t look over here too much! I’m still a bit hesitant to show you, but…
No other choice!”

Karen-senpai was blushing furiously, and suddenly started taking off her
clothes.

“W-What are you doing, President!?”

“H-Hey, you’re so shocked, you went back to calling me like you did before!
Calm down, and look at me!”

“W-Which is it now…Ah, thank god, you’re not naked…”

“What do you think I would do!? This is a public space, I wouldn’t just strip
like that!”

That reminds me, I have yet to see Karen-senpai naked…Though I’ve seen

69 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
her as a gal countless times before. Leaving that aside, right now, Karen-
senpai was wearing a black dress. Both her slender shoulders and well-
endowed cleavage was clearly visible, as her dress reached down to her feet.
This dress was even more…

“W-What do you think? I got it from my Onee-sama…But, is it too


lascivious?”

“It definitely is lewd.”

“Don’t deliver it with a fast ball like that! But…do you think so? The size
does fit, but around my chest, it’s a bit tight…” Karen-senpai pushed and
pulled on her breasts, revealing even more skin than before.

Don’t tell me, is she not wearing any bra…? Honestly, I had enough no-bra
situations with Maka-sensei.

70 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
71 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“D-Don’t worry about that. The others forced me to put this on, saying it
would be a waste to just year my nun uniform for today.”

“They sure are considerate…”

Maybe I should send Miharu here after all.

“Plus, it’s a bit hard to pull off with a nun uniform…”

“W-What do you plan on doing?”

“I feel like you have quite the misunderstanding, but…For now, just sit
down.”

“Huh…”

I didn’t resist, and sat down. What did they call this, an audience? The chair I
sat on was a bit cold, telling me that there was no A/C here in this cloister.

“Hm…?”

Karen-senpai moved between the rows of chairs, sitting down in front of the
organ.

“Karen-senpai…?”

“Don’t talk back, just listen for now.” Karen-senpai said, slightly blushing, as
she reached out for the organ with a deep breath.

Shortly after, a high sound came from the organ. Even if the nuns here are
fairly relaxed, and their clothes are too erotic, the cloister is still a holy place.
That only emphasized the divine melody that rang through the altar.

“Huh…”

I was wondering what kind of high-brow melody she was playing, but it was
your average Christmas song. Once that ended, another Christmas song
played, but one that was more popular overseas. It feels like a ‘You might
have gotten dumped by your previous lover, but cheer up’ kind of message.

72 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
After that was done, another popular piano piece played. Even when played
on the organ, I recognized the song.

This is the first time I heard Karen-senpai play an instrument like this. On top
of that, she used her voice I heard a lot to add the lyrics with a calm singing
voice. Her singing and organ playing resounded inside the chapel, and gently
ended.

“…Phew.” Karen-senpai moved away from the organ, and let out a long sigh.

I stood up, and gave her a round of applause.

“So you can play the organ, Senpai. I had no idea.”

“Of course. In my first year, I chose calligraphy instead of music, and I


haven’t told anybody at Seikadai.”

“Eh, even though you are that good at it?”

At Seikadai during your first year, you choose between music – arts –
calligraphy. On a side note, I chose calligraphy because it sounded
interesting. My little sister did the same.

“I learned to play the organ myself, and thanks to the other nuns. my level
can’t be compared to the children at Seikadai.”

“That’s not true, it was wonderful.”

I heard Maka-sensei’s performance before, but this might be even better.


Then again, Maka-sensei had a long blank in between.

“Urk…How can you be so honest at times…”

“Do you want me to be honest or not? But, I haven’t heard music like that
often.”

“Of course. Can’t play popular pop songs here. The director gave me special
permission, but we are special in general.”

73 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Most of the time the songs you can play are limited and regulated after all.
Even so, I feel glad that I got to hear her play.

“That’s why, keep that just now a secret. Lock it deep away inside your chest,
Saigi Makoto.”

“If you say so. Though, I can’t act like I didn’t hear anything.”

“And then you say something cute like that…just don’t tell anybody else…”
Karen-senpai moved away from the organ, and walked towards me.

Following that, she picked up a plastic bag that stood near the organ, and
took out something from it.

“This is hush money. Take it.”

“…You’re not honest at all, Karen-senpai. But, I will take it.”

It was a knitted cap, which she put on my head.

“Although I bought it from my work as a trainee, I couldn’t afford anything


expensive…”

“Wasting such precious money…”

“That’s exactly why I used it as a present for you, Saigi Makoto. What do
you think?”

I moved the cap on my head a bit.

“Yup, it’s warm. I actually thought it was a bit cold in here.”

“Turning on the A/C is not part of a believer’s faith after all. Especially not in
the vocabulary of the director.”

“Well, I feel like I can tell…I actually wanted to buy a cap like this, but
Shiya-chan wouldn’t help me pick one, so this is perfect timing…Wait, did
you talk this out with Shiya-chan?”

74 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“If possible, I wanted to give you a present you really wanted, so I had Shiya-
senpai help me.”

“…You deceived me.”

Makes sense that Shiya-chan would come shopping with me. She sure is kind
to her juniors.

“Then, you get this from me, Karen-senpai.” I took out a small wrapped
object from my bag, and gave it to her.

“You didn’t have to. But, thank you. Can I open it?”

When I nodded, Karen-senpai took out a small bottle from the package.

“I’m sorry, it’s not some famous brand…”

“Perfume, huh. This is the first time I got something like this…Can I put it on
my wrist?”

“Do what you feel like.”

“I-I see…”

With unfamiliar movement, she put a bit of the perfume on her wrist. From
there, a sweet scent came drifting up.

“I was unsure of what to get, but…since you’re an adult now, I figured this
would match perfectly.”

“…You’re oddly considerate now, Saigi Makoto. But, I like it.”

“And…I’m sorry, but I need to be honest. I actually asked Maka-sensei for


advice.”

“…Haha.” Karen-senpai let out a dry laugh. “There’s no need to be super


serious when saying that. It’s just like you, Saigi Makoto. I don’t mind, but
maybe you should keep quiet about that with the other girls.”

75 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Huh…I-I guess so.”

I did ask Maka-sensei for advice, but since I was the one buying it in the end,
I guess I don’t exactly have to tell them. If anything, I was super nervous
when I gave it to her. I’m not sure if I chose the right words, but it seems like
she is happy at least.

“I’ll gladly use it. Especially since it’s a present from you.”

“Of course…But, don’t fall into a university debut like Shiya-chan did.”

“Naturally. There’s people who end up getting bullied for that after all.”

“I wonder who you might be referring to.”

“I’m done with image changes…Still, to think a girly event like receiving
perfume on Christmas would ever happen to me.”

“Senpai…is a bit different, but you are definitely a charming girl…”

“Again, stop with—No, I’m happy. Really happy.” Karen-senpai blushed


furiously, and showed a grin. “When I created SID, I was worried if I was
doing the right thing, namely creating an organization for the sake of love,
but…I’m glad I did. Amanashi Nui, Saigi Miharu, Shinju Muku, Keimi
Shiya-senpai, I’m happy I had them with me. I’m happy that we all fell in
love with Saigi Makoto.”

“…A-Aren’t you saying some embarrassing things yourself, Senpai?”

Honestly speaking, it doesn’t feel bad knowing that all these girls like me. Of
course, the same can be said about the black-haired beauty in front of me…
That reminds me, I was only told a bit of the founding days of SID. Back
then, I was too busy dealing with their relentless attacks, I couldn’t bother
with that.

“During the last Valentine’s day, we four girls met, the four who couldn’t
confess our feelings, and realized of each others’.”

“H-Huh…”

76 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Not even a full year passed since then. But, it felt like a long time…And
now, it’s Christmas…”

“…Karen-senpai?”

She suddenly grew quiet, and looked up at the ceiling. What happened?
Maybe she suddenly feels like playing some pop song?

“Saigi Makoto.”

“Yes? What’s—Mnn!?”

Karen-senpai suddenly walked closer to me, grabbed my cheeks—and


pressed her lips on mine. The scent of her hair and the new perfume tickled
my nose.

“…Sorry for doing that so abruptly.”

“U-Um…Should you really be going for a kiss in such a holy place…?”

“If it is a kiss of vows then it should be fine…I hope.”

“Karen-senpai…?”

Her expression suddenly turned super serious, and also like she was having
trouble speaking.

“I’m really sorry, but…” Karen-senpai tightly embraced me. “This might be
my final kiss with my first love after all.”

“Final…?”

Karen-senpai and I aren’t lovers. That’s why, us kissing in general was


something out of the ordinary—But.

“Saigi Makoto, I hesitated if I should tell you about this, but…I decided. If I
don’t tell you today, I won’t ever be able to. It has to be now, and not on
Valentine’s Day.”

77 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“……?”

“It’s something very important…that we need to talk about.”

Oddly enough, I wasn’t too shocked at her words. I wonder why…? Ah, I
know. Thinking about it, Karen-senpai had been acting off since the
beginning. The first time I caught on to it was during the culture festival.
Seeing her motivated while walking around the culture festival with Kuu, I
thought something was off. And now, today.

There’s no way the diligent Karen-senpai would agree to sharing me for dates
with Kuu and Nui. We could be going on a date on any other day, so why did
it have to be today? But, there’s something else. What is it…?

“Listen to me, Saigi Makoto. I—”

“………”

I couldn’t say anything. This atmosphere forced me to keep my mouth


shut.This might be the first time I’ve experienced such a heavy atmosphere.

Karen-senpai is a beautiful Senpai of mine, and the former student council


president. Even if she has a few weird sides to her, I have deep respect for
her. Right now, she’s definitely trying to talk about something I didn’t want
to hear. And even if I didn’t want to, she still did it. I’m sure that I would
regret everything if I didn’t take her seriously now.

Chapter 3: Maka-sensei VS Cat-
trainer Girl

The town is as noisy as never on Christmas. The time was slowly moving
towards 3pm in the afternoon, and yet the crowds of people made it feel like
it was Christmas Eve. I know Christmas is an exciting event, but can you all
calm down a bit? I can’t stand all these normies causing a ruckus. Really,
youngsters nowadays…or so some boomer would complain, but I’m a
youngster myself.

After I went home from the cloister, I headed home once to change into my
casual clothes. Karen-senpai invited me to her home right after school, but
now it’s casual clothes time. That being said, my uniform might have been a
bit warmer…Now that we’re in the afternoon, it’s only more cold than
before…

It’s not going to turn into a white Christmas, right…? I don’t need any snow.

“Nekoranya…”

While I was thinking about that inside my head, I arrived at my destination. It


was a stylish store, with the name of the establishment written on a billboard.
To me, that store was all too familiar. Especially because I worked here
before.

“To think I would be asked to come here…For now, I’ll head inside.”

“Welcome! …Ah, just Saigi-dono.”

“That is quite the greeting, Sekiya-san.”

She wore a red sailor uniform, together with a red miniskirt, and the store’s

79 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
apron on top. Of course, the mysterious holster on her thigh wasn’t missing.
Probably because of the day, she wore a Santa hat, but besides that, she’s not
that much different.

“I’m busy right now, so I ain’t got time to spend with you, alright?”

“I mean, I didn’t come here to play with you…I just came from the House of
Love and Prayers.”

“House of Love and Prayers?”

“Don’t tell me you forgot!? You were living there before, right!?”

“Ah, now that you mention it. I mean, your flat probably has a name as well,
but you don’t call it ‘Residence Seikadai’ when you go back, do you.”

“Our flat doesn’t have a name like that…I don’t know of many flats that
actually have a name.”

Though I feel like there’s a difference between a mansion and an actual


facility…Whatever.

“But, I see. You went there for the Christmas party. How nice, the cooking
was always delicious.”

“Why didn’t you go there then, Sekiya-san?”

“I graduated after all. A girl who has been part of the family shouldn’t bother
during such a day.”

“………”

There seems to be some subtleness I don’t really understand.

“Also, the pay you get on Christmas cannot be ignored! What else should I be
doing besides working!”

“Right, you were hoping that the cat cafe was open…”

80 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
How admirable, wanting to work on Christmas of all days. I guess everyone
from the House of Love and Prayers is that diligent…

“…Talking about that, did you know about…”

“Hm? What?”

“No, it’s nothing.”

Sekiya-san is working right now, I shouldn’t bother her with anything


complicated.

“We’ve been waiting for you, Saigi-dono.”

“Ah, right. I’ll do my thing then.”

“You can get some drinks from the bar if you want~”

“That’s a bit too free if you ask me!”

It’d be bad if the other customers complained because of that. But, Sekiya-
san just laughed it off, and walked away. Now then, I should—

“Sensei~!”

“Wah…!”

Right when I wanted to search for the person in question—she rammed her
head into my stomach.

“K-Kuu…You were here already.”

“Yes~ I borrowed the changing from from Raiha-oneesan~”

Today’s Kuu wore a familiar miniskirt maid uniform, but slightly different.

“Did you sew your clothes again?”

“That’s right, I did my best for today!”

81 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
The base was still the miniskirt maid, but today her entire body is red, not
black. She probably fixed it for the occasion. As always, Kuu’s sewing skill
seems unparalleled. I don’t think it’d be that easy to change the entire feel of
one’s clothes that easily. She even helped make the costumes for our play
during the culture festival before.

“Since we’ll be having the date here at Nekoranya, I put on cat ears and a tail.
I’m a cat now, meow~”

“………”

Hmmm…No matter what she wears, Kuu always looks cute. But, with these
clothes, as well as the collar plus cat ears and tail, it’s far too destructive.
Fujiki Maka-san (24) wore the same clothes before, but with Kuu (11)
wearing it, it feels completely different. Hers looks more innocent, just like
1
her name suggests .

“You’re quite energetic today, aren’t you.”

“Because this is a women’s battle I cannot afford to lose!”

“………”

Normally, Kuu is a calm and collected girl. I know that Christmas is an


exciting event, but would that really get her this riled up…? That reminds me,
at the culture festival, Kuu said something similar to Karen-senpai…But, I
shouldn’t be thinking about that right now. Is it because of what happened at
the cloister? I’d feel bad for Kuu if I didn’t focus on her today. Especially
since she looks so cute.

“…Ah?!”

I-I almost forgot, this is Nekoranya! The customers here regard Kuu as a cat,
so they’ll try to spoil her! If she wears something cute like that, they’ll
definitely go for the kill—

“…Huh? They’re not rushing towards her?”

82 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“What are you talking about, Sensei?”

“No, it’s nothing.”

Looking around, all customers right now were women, and…all their eyes
were dead. It looked like their hearts were empty, devoid of any feelings, as a
breeze blew through them. Right, today’s Christmas…All the girls here are
emotionally dead because they’re alone…

“Sensei, I’ll be teaching you how to play with all the cats here!”

“Ah, yeah. That sounds fun.”

So Kuu’s turn will be a cat cafe date, huh. Since I wouldn’t want to walk
around town with her during such a day, this is just perfect. Also, I love cats
just as much as she does! Our Kagome’s super cute after all…Ah, that cat
over there looks just like—

“—Wait, Kagome!? Why is she here!?”

“Kagome-chan was originally called ‘Kamomo’ by the owner, but, the


employees complained about that, and her name was changed to ‘Kagome’.
Eventually, that became the norm, and the regulars at Nekoranya call her
Kagome as well.”

“Ah, that’s why.”

And of course, that employee who complained had to have been Sekiya-san. I
can’t even think of calling her any other way but ‘Kagome’.

“…But, why is she here?”

“I begged Miharu-oneechan for permission to bring her here. The fake tears
especially helped.”

“Your fake tears sure are effective…”

Not to mention that Miharu thinks of Kuu as her younger sister. Not to
mention that Kagome is very docile, so bringing her here was probably no

83 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
problem at all.

“The cats here at Nekoranya are like a family to Kagome-chan as well, so I


wanted her to meet them at least during Christmas.”

“I see. Thanks, Kuu.”

“Ehehe…” Being praised, the young girl let out a flustered but happy laugh.

As for Miharu, she apparently went to Enri’s party after all, which I’m very
happy to hear about. When it comes to my family, I want them to enjoy
Christmas the way they want.

“Just…Kagome-chan doesn’t seem too bothered by her surroundings…”

“W-Well, she’d just loiter around anyway if she was at home.”

Our dear white cat seems totally unfazed by her surroundings. She couldn’t
care less about her older friends, just resting her body on a flashy cushion.

“For now, let’s play with some other kitties.”

“But, we can’t bother the other customers, okay?”

“That’ll be fine. They’re all dead inside today, so they won’t even catch on to
our presence. That’s what Raiha-oneesan told me.”

“I feel like things aren’t fine in a different sense…”

Together with my words, the roughly ten other customers in the cafe all
turned towards us.

“A young girl and a middle schooler…? Well, I’ll allow it…”

“I wouldn’t let you go home safely if you were some normie high school
couple…”

“It’s fine…this is like a Christmas mixer…We’re all bitches meeting lots of


‘males’ today…”

84 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“……………”

Mama I’m scared come pick me up. This comfortable cat cafe is going to turn
into a witch’s lair…Also, just for the record, I’m in high school! Though I’ll
keep that a secret, otherwise I’ll get cursed.

“U-Um…then, let’s play some, shall we. Do you have a favorite cat?”

“I do, but I’ll be the one playing with them.”

“I-I see…”

I guess there’s things Kuu won’t give me, no matter how attached to me she
may be. Even though I came to a cat cafe, I don’t feel soothed at all…

“Ahh, how fun. This is the first time I had such an enjoyable Christmas.”

“………”

These words came from Kuu, who was surrounded by four cats, in a great
mood. I feel like I heard something similar from a certain principal back
during Golden Week…She better not have been influencing Kuu, right?

“Here, catch the cat tease~ Sawara-chan, you liked this, right?”

“Our vice principal called you a ‘Cat Trainer’, and I can see that she’s pretty
accurate with that.”

“T-That’s not the case. These cats just play with me…and, the Vice
Principal-sensei is a good friend who often comes by to play.”

“I-If you say so…?”

At school, she’s feared by every student and teacher alike…

“Your communicative ability is crazy, Kuu. Aren’t you the one with the most
connections?”

“As long as you’re alive, the most important factor is ‘Connections’, is what

85 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
my Mother always told me.”

“…Kouko-sensei sure never fails to amaze me with her weird teaching


methods…”

Maybe we should have taken Kuu into our family, and raised her properly…

“But, once I move up to the high school division, it’ll be much more
comfortable for me since I’m friends with the Vice Principal-sensei.”

“How calculative. But, she might have become the principal by then.”

“Connections with the top…My successful school life has been secured.”

“You learned some interesting vocabulary there…”

Also, the vice principal always visits this place with a disguise, and yet her
real identity is as clear as day. Well, she might have just been honest with
Kuu, since she’s such a sincere girl.

“S-Sensei…Um…”

“Hm?”

Kuu suddenly started fidgeting.

“Could you keep this a secret from everyone?”

“Something important? Sure I will.” I nodded, to which Kuu moved closer


with a beet red face.

“The thing is…Once I attend high school, I want to become the student
council president…”

“Student council president? You?”

“S-Sensei, not so loud…The witches are going to hear you…” Kuu put her
index finger on her lip, signaling me to stay quiet.

86 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
I don’t see a reason to worry about that, since the customers present aren’t
even related to Seikadai. Also, Kuu thinks of them as witches as well?

“Karen-oneesan is really cool after all, and Miharu-oneechan only gets


spoiled more by Sensei now that she’s the president.”

“The first reason is very admirable, but the second one is full of problems,
you understand?”

“I-Is that so?”

That’s right. Rather than spoiling her, I just want to lessen her workload
outside the student council. Also, Miharu’s the vice president, there’s an
important difference.

“Then again, you actually won the Miss-Con of our high school, so becoming
the student council president isn’t a pipe dream.”

“Eh, are these two in any way related?”

“Pretty much. A big part of the student council election is based on the
popularity of the candidates.”

When I helped with the election last year and this year, I realized that. Their
popularity ended up as a huge plus in their campaign for both Karen-senpai
and Enri.

“I-Is that so…Then, I will try my best to become a great woman! After every
bath, I will put skin lotion on my face, like my Mother always does!”

“Well, you’re still in grade school, so there’s no need for such intensive skin
care.”

Or, is that becoming the norm nowadays? Maybe I just have a wrong
perception of girls because I have Miharu as an example.

“That’s right, I want to become the student council president…”

“………”

87 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
I thought she’d be more excited than that, and yet she’s suddenly down. I feel
like Kuu’s mental state is pretty unstable today. Is she worried by any
chance? I definitely think she can do it.

“Still…”

“Fueh? W-What is it, Sensei? Why are you staring at me like that…?” Kuu
sat on the ground.

She’s very defenseless, especially in front of me, which is why I could almost
see her panties.

“No, I’ve seen this happen many times, so…Wait, not that. You’ll be a high
school student in six years, so I was just wondering what you would look like
then.”

“Ah, probably something like this.”

“Eh? Huh!?”

Kuu showed me a picture on her smartphone—On which I could see a Kuu


wearing the high school blazer from Seikadai!?

“This is my Mother, a long time ago.”

“…When she was young, right. That surprised me…So Kouko-sensei


graduated from Seikadai as well?”

“No, she said ‘I exchanged my uniform with someone from Seikadai’ and
called it ‘A mistake in my younger days’.”

“If it was a mistake, why did she give her daughter this picture…”

In the end, she just wanted to brag, right. In the end, Kouko-sensei looks just
like Kuu, and is as cute after all.

“But, yeah, I can see you grow up like this, Kuu.”

“I figured. Knowing how it ends, I was a bit disappointed, but with looks like

88 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
these, Sensei will be an easy catch.”

“Easy catch…”

I’ll pretend like I didn’t hear that.

“But, you don’t have to rush anything, these six years will go by really
quickly.” I said, and put my hand on Kuu’s head. “You have good grades, so
you’ll surely make it to Seikadai’s high school division. I can’t wait to see
you in a blazer.”

“………”

…Huh? Kuu suddenly grew silent. Is she feeling even worse now…? Did I
say something weird?

“W-What’s wrong, Kuu? Are your grades dropping or something…?”

“…W-Well, the thing is…” Kuu slowly raised her head, showing a wry
smile. “Recently, I’ve been busy with sewing as of late, I couldn’t study as
much…But, it’s fine! There’s never been someone that had to repeat a year in
grade school!”

“T-That is true…Even Nui made it this far.”

“Yes, Nui-oneesan is my symbol of hope!”

I don’t think you should be keeping her as a symbol of hope as of all people.
But, this is pretty surprising. Kuu always seemed like she had a breeze with
her studies. Since she calls me ‘Sensei’, I need to look after her. I don’t feel
right treating her like a child, but I better say it now than never.

“Ah, I’m sorry, I just started talking about something weird like that. Since
it’s Christmas, we need to play with the cats! Sensei, forget about your harem
of girls, and enjoy this harem of cats.”

“Ha…!?”

How does Kuu know of that word!?

89 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Harem…Did she just say harem? That shota looks so cute, but actually has a
harem…?”

“If harems exist, then why do I have to be single on Christmas?”

“I’ll gladly take one man, I don’t want a harem…”

Not good, the eyes of the older ladies around are turning even more dark than
before…! They probably spent their past Christmases alone as well…!

“Phew…that was a close call, Sensei!”

“Y-You saved me, Kuu…”

Nekoranya has a second floor, which is inhabited by the owner of the cat
cafe, Maka Papa. Actually, I had known about this, but not that there was a
single room used for customers. Kuu and I ran away from the crazy older
ladies, upstairs. Thankfully, that saved us.

“To think I didn’t know of this room, despite me helping out before…”

I think we used the employees’ break room to take that video of Maka-sensei
before. Couldn’t we have just used that room instead?

“Ah, this room was done only recently. It was a storage room before, but it
was made for customers that wanted to spend time with a single cat alone.”

“Ahh, I see.”

Yeah, there were noise blockers set up on the wall and the floor, together
with thick curtains on the windows, the floor equipped with expensive-
looking cushions. Kuu took a calico cat and Kagome with her as well, putting
them down. I guess this service must cost quite a bit.

“Hey, Mukku-tan.” Suddenly, Sekiya-san walked into the room. “Sorry, can I
bother you right now?”

“Is it showtime?”

90 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“…Sure, go on ahead, I’ll play with the kitties.” I nodded.

“Y-Yes, I’ll be right back!”

Cat ears maid Kuu left the room together with Sekiya-san. I’m still a bit
dubious about this whole showtime thing. If I remember correctly, it was a
time where regulars could take pictures of Kuu together with the cats, or have
her dance with them. Since Kuu received a cheaper pass here at Nekoranya,
this is her way of helping out. Wait a second, was there a customer just acting
like they wanted a showtime, so that Kuu and I couldn’t flirt around…?

“…No, I shouldn’t suddenly be this doubtful.”

There’s no bad customers here, no.

“Kagome…Ah, fell asleep. I guess she must be tired in this new yet familiar
environment.”

As for the calico cat, she leaned against me, staring up at me. This cat sure is
clingy, I guess that she must be one of Kuu’s favorites.

“Ah, my smartphone.”

I took out my vibrating phone. The person calling me was—

“Yes, Saigi here.”

‘Makoto-kun, Merry Christmas.’

“Y-Yes, Merry Christmas to you as well…But, what’s wrong, Kouko-


sensei?”

She is Kuu’s mother, and the person who ruined my life—Well, that sounds a
bit exaggerated, I guess—Shinju Kouko.

‘You’re in the middle of a date with my daughter, correct?’

“Indeed, I am…not shocked that you know.”

91 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Makes sense that a grade schooler would tell her parents where she’s going,
especially on Christmas. She does leave her home pretty early, but deep
down Kuu is still a good child.

‘To think that small brat Makoto-kun would go on a date…Not to mention


with a young girl like that, you sure grew up a lot. I’m happy, you know.’

“That definitely is not something you should be happy about.”

Normally you should be reporting that to the police, especially if you’re the
parent of said young girl. Of course, Kouko-sensei knows I mean no danger,
but at least don’t be that happy about it.

‘I might be a teacher, but I am also an adult. I am happy about my daughter’s


growth, as well as my student’s.’

“You’re a former teacher. But, what happened? Did you want something
from Kuu, she just left.”

‘Ah, really? Good timing. So, how’s it going with Muku?’

“H-How? I feel like she’s having fun.”

‘Having fun, huh…Are you taking a bath right now? Two hours of break?
Rented an expensive room?’

“I didn’t take her to some place fishy! We’re at Nekoranya!”

‘OH my, I heard you went to the cat cafe, but I figured you already left…’

“Can you not force your own desires onto me?”

I feel like all the girls around me are crazy. Oh yeah, I heard about this when
Kuu invited me on the date. She didn’t want me to take Kuu to a cheap hotel
at least. She wasn’t serious about that…right?

‘Still, my own daughter doesn’t know how to seduce a man at all. A cat cafe
is nice, but that’s not the place where to do the act, especially her first time
with her first boyfriend.’

92 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Excuse the ever-living hell out of me, but we aren’t dating, remember?”

‘But, you knew Muku ever since she was a baby. Why not go for the finisher
now?’

“In what regard!?”

She’s definitely out to make Shinju Muku go through a class change into
Saigi Kuu, right?

‘Because I have faith in you, Makoto-kun, I’m willing to give you my


precious daughter.’

“…That turned serious a bit too abruptly.”

‘This is the first time Muku is off to spend Christmas with someone except
family and friends. I want her to have fun.’

“…I’m the one having fun.”

‘Haha, that’s very much like you, Makoto-kun. Isn’t that fine then?’ Kouko-
sensei laughed, leaving me passive again.

Then again, that’s nothing new.

‘You were thinking about how you’re on the passive end again, right?’

“Ueh…?”

‘Don’t underestimate me, Makoto-kun. I can tell what children are thinking
with ease.’

“…I should have expected that.”

‘But, Makoto-kun, you don’t get washed along with the situation as much as
you think. That’s why you protected Muku all this time, and rejected her
once.’

“I can’t tell if you’re praising me or dissing me.”

93 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Also, where is this even coming from? She’s not calling because she’s
worried for her daughter, right?

“Sensei! Are you cheating on me with Mother?!”

“Woah!”?

The door rammed open, with Kuu storming inside.

‘Ah, crap! Anyway, Makoto-kun, take care of the rest! I won’t ask you to
take responsibility, but don’t run away at least!’

“Mother! I told you not to say anything unnecessary!” Kuu screamed at my


phone, and forcefully cut the call.

It seems like she heard Kouko-sensei’s voice at the end. Then again, Kouko-
sensei loves to talk loudly. I guess that’s a necessary trait when dealing with
grade school children.

“Tch, she escaped…As always, she loves to meddle. I’d love for her parents
to see this.”

“You mean your grandparents?”

On a side note, they’re both healthy.

“Anyway, is your showtime over, Kuu?”

“Ah, yes. They took lots of pictures, and I was asked to dance. Raiha-
oneesan’s quick draw was pretty amazing as well.”

“Quick draw!?”

What is that Sekiya-san doing!? Is she actually putting that holster at her
thigh to use…?

“…Enough about the showtime…What did Mother say?”

“Huh? Ah, nothing important. She was just wondering if you were doing

94 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
okay.”

“That can’t be the only reason why she called you. It would be too much of a
waste money-wise.”

“Is Kouko-sensei really such a cheapskate?”

Now that I think about it, I barely know anything about the Kouko-sensei at
home. I went to Kuu’s home to play a few times, but I was only a guest back
then.

“It really wasn’t anything important. She probably wanted to hear how you
were doing.”

“Is that so…If that is the case, then that’s good.” Kuu gently rubbed the back
of the calico cat, which sat on her lap.

As expected from a cat at a cat cafe, she was used to being caressed like that,
showing no complaints. However, as for the expression of the person
caressing the cat…

“…Hey, Kuu? Is there some problem going on right now?”

“Eh…!?” A loud shriek I had never heard from Kuu came out of her mouth,
to which the calico cat jumped up from her lap, escaping to the corner of the
room. “Ah, um…I’m sorry, I can’t believe I scared the cat like that, it’s
almost like I’m an amateur…”

“What kind of pro are you then? Also, she’ll come back soon enough, don’t
worry.”

After all, the cat was stretching her body, seeming fairly calm. Have all cats
here been raised like that? Is that because of the owner’s way of raising them,
or maybe it’s employee S-san’s influence.

“B-But…how did you know…?”

“I could just tell.”

95 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
She probably didn’t even realize that her emotions were like a rollercoaster
right now. Not to mention that she had been acting off the second I came
here. But, that’s not all.

“At the culture festival before, I thought it was weird.”

It felt like she was rushing things. Exactly the same as with Karen-senpai.
Now that I heard about that from Karen-senpai, I can’t help but be concerned
about Kuu.

“Ugh…”

“Ah, well, it’s fine if you don’t want to tell me. There must be a thing or two
you wouldn’t want me to know after all.”

“There isn’t!”

“There isn’t!?”

“A while ago, I was told that I probably should be getting a bra soon, which
is why I had my sizes taken, and I wouldn’t hesitate a second to tell you!”

“I don’t need to know that!”

I did take a few baths with Kuu before, and saw her chest up close, but this
and that are different, okay? This isn’t my own home, so I don’t want people
to get weird ideas in case they overheard us.

“Ah, I want Sensei to choose a cute one for me.”

“I-I think that’s taking things a bit too far…”

I feel like the hurdle to just enter a shop for girls underwear is way too big.
Even more so if it’s a high school boy choosing the underwear of a grade
school girl. I’d probably get arrested for good, right?

“Is that no good? That bra would be something for me to show you, Sensei.”

“I’m not too familiar with bras, but I still think the problem lies elsewhere.”

96 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
Just because I had to wear women’s clothes a few times doesn’t mean I
suddenly know everything there is to know.

“Is that so…B-But, Sensei!”

“Hm?”

Kuu suddenly stood up, and pulled on her miniskirt, as if she wanted to hide
her thighs. She accidentally flashed her panties before, so why is she this
conscious of it now?

“I haven’t bought… a cute bra yet.”

“Yeah, you should get one while you still can.”

Her breasts have been growing quite a bit as of late, probably beating most of
her classmates’. I don’t want her to embarrass herself in public because she
hasn’t gotten around to wear one yet.

“I haven’t bought a bra yet, but who decided that I can’t wear lewd
underwear!?”

“Where did that momentum come from!?”

This is way too different from the usual Kuu!

“Look, Sensei! This is the special me!”

“………!”

Kuu stripped off the red maid uniform. I was wondering how she did it, but
maybe she designed it for that purpose, as she took it off in one go. And,
what appeared from beneath that uniform—was a piece of clothing revealing
almost her entire body, colored in a faint pink. It was full with ribbons and
frills, transparent all over. Thanks to that, her panties were in plain sight.

(TN: There’s an illustration here, but I want to keep my site so I’m not
adding that.)

97 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“K-Kuu…What are these clothes…?”

“It might not be cute, but it’s lewd all the more…!”

“Seriously, what happened to you!?”

“As just the maid alone, I won’t be able to win you over, Sensei! This is the
SSR Christmas version of Cat-Ears Maid Kuu!”

“I can see how you were influenced by Miharu, alright…”

“S-So you knew…I actually asked Miharu-oneechan for help. She told me to
use my loli body to fully make you fall for me.”

“Alright, once I get home, Miharu gets an earful.”

“Ehh!? You’re going to scold Miharu-oneechan because of Kuu!?”

“Well, I would, but I don’t think she’d even listen properly…”

Miharu did calm down a bit after the election, but I can see that she’s still
going around plotting. I mean, look at what she did now…

“Anyway, put on your maid uniform right now.”

“That demand sounds bad in itself…”

“Right…”

How many times on a single day am I risking myself getting arrested?

“However, I cannot comply with that request! This is Saigi Kuu’s first
rebellious phase!”

“Don’t just change your name so conveniently. But, you really can’t stay like
this for much longer.”

If Sekiya-san were to come back now, my life would be over.

98 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“No, I have to stay like this. After all, only this room is a cat-ear cafe.”

“Since when did you open a service inside another service!?”

Also, this place is already a Maka Cafe, so that won’t work!

“Just have fun with Cat-ear Kuu…No matter what you do, Kuu won’t
complain, okay?”

Kuu suddenly walked in front of me, leaning against my knee. It was


probably subconscious, but she acted like a cat.

“Hey, Kuu…”

In the process of this, her small but slowly developing breasts were hitting
me. Yeah, I really can’t treat her like a child…She’s probably aware of that
as well, and is using that to her advantage…

“Sensei…I’m sorry that I can only be spoiled like this…This is the only way
for me to show you my feelings…”

“Right, I know…” I grabbed Kuu’s shoulders, and pushed her up.

“Sensei…? Is it not good enough…? Can I not be spoiled by you like


this…?”

“It’s not. But…Kuu, you’re not a child anymore, so we can’t do this. I’m
sorry.”

“………” Kuu shook her head, and looked down.

As a result, the string of her clothes moved, revealing her bare breasts.

“Is that so…But, if you say that I’m not a child anymore…!”

“Wah…!”

Kuu suddenly raised her head, and pressed her lips on mine. I could tell how
her lips were quivering.

99 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“K-Kuu…you can’t…”

“I know I shouldn’t be doing this. That this is something bad, but that’s
exactly why…I want to do it.” Kuu moved away from me, and showed a
troubled smile. “I know that going on a Christmas date is too early for me.
I’m still in grade school after all. Even I get that, okay?”

“I’m not saying it’s too early for you, but…why are you forcing yourself
then? Did something happen…?”

“Before that…Wait a moment.”

Kuu walked to the corner of the room, and took out a plastic bag from her
own.

“Merry Christmas. Sensei, please accept this.”

“Ah, right. I have something from me as well…” I took out a wrapping from
my body bag, and handed it over to Kuu.

“Oh, this is really cute! So cute, Sensei! It looks similar to Kagome-chan!”

My present was a key strap looking like a cat, greatly resembling our white
cat Kagome. It seems to have been handmade, which cost a bit more than I
would have liked to, but I decided to keep that a secret.

“I thought that, since you can’t keep a cat, you might as well carry one with
you like this.”

“I’m really happy! I will put it on an altar at home!”

“Just use it as a key strap!”

“I-Is that so…Then I’ll put it on my bicycle key…” Kuu looked at the object
in her hand like it was her prized possession. “So…how do you like my
present?”

“I’m happy. I actually wanted to get some gloves, so they’re perfect.”

100 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


The gloves Kuu got me even had a design a high school boy like me could
wear. Then again, maybe she really wanted to give me some with a cat design
on it.

“Thank god…I saved some money and stopped visiting Nekoranya so that I
could afford them…”

“Y-You didn’t have to go that far…But, thank you. I’ll put them to good
use.”

So I got a cap from Karen-senpai, and gloves from Kuu. I feel like I’ll be
protected from the cold this Christmas.

“Then, time to continue what I was talking about!” Kuu said, while tightly
embracing the key strap. “I have a problem right now, Sensei. Will you hear
me out? Although this might end up with me being spoiled by you again…”

“That’s what you call ‘Relying on someone’. I can’t exactly explain the
difference, but I’m happy to be of help.”

“O-Okay…” Kuu said, as she put on her maid uniform again.

Thank god, I wouldn’t know where to look otherwise.

“I wouldn’t have been able to say this before. I finally confessed to Sensei
last spring, but…” Kuu finished putting on her clothes, and started caressing
the calico cat. “You know I couldn’t give you chocolate on Valentine’s day,
right?”

“Eh? Y-Yeah?”

That did leave me curious. I expected Kuu to give me chocolate, since we


had known each other for ages.

“I actually made a lot of chocolate, but…Because I love you so much, I was


too embarrassed to give it to you.”

“I-I see…”

101 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


Now I feel embarrassed with how serious she’s saying it.

“It was the same with this Valentine’s. I had chocolate, and came to the high
school division…but I couldn’t give them to you.”

Now that she mentioned it, I remember seeing her loiter around the shoe
lockers, holding something behind her back.

“The reason I could confess to Sensei despite all of that—is thanks to


everyone from SID.”

“…What a coincidence, I heard something similar from Karen-senpai today.”

“Karen-oneesan…Karen-oneechan, she’s the leader after all. I was in her


care, and I really like her.”

“Right, Karen-senpai is the coolest in SID, and you are the cutest, Kuu.”

“Urk…I’ll actually believe you if you say that…It’s not fair towards Nui-
oneechan, Miharu-oneechan, and Shiya-oneechan…”

Suddenly, Kuu started adding ‘chan’ for the other girls as well, not only
Miharu, huh.

“Then, please hear me out, Sensei…I don’t know what to do otherwise…”

“Yeah, take your time.”

I still have some time until I’m supposed to meet Nui. But, I shouldn’t be
thinking about another girl right now. That would be rude towards Kuu…
Though, I just can’t help but wonder…Why on Christmas? Not to mention
that following Karen-senpai, even Kuu has something important to talk
about.

I think I might be glad accepting their date invitations now. Otherwise, I


wouldn’t have heard what they had to say.

Chapter 4: Maka-sensei Vs The
Strongest Classmate

Christmas is probably the day of the year that fills the most hotel rooms.
Even I, an innocent high school boy, am aware of that. If you don’t make
reservations half—No, even a full year ago, you won’t get anything in the
bigger cities.

“How much ya wanna sleep at a hotel?”

And how desperate were you to create a Christmas mood? Are you going all
out or something?

‘Sometimes, your Kansai dialect really shows, Sai-kun.’

“Ah, yeah, I wasn’t influenced by some TV shows, it’s more like my Mom
would speak a variety of Kansai dialect. Sometimes it even shows with
Miharu.”

I gave a nonchalant explanation, but…

“…So, why am I here again?”

‘Because I told you to come here? Ah, you can come in Sai-kun. I’ll hang up
for now.’

“Alright…”

The phone call was cut. The location I arrived at was—

“Woah…”

103 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


A pool. From the stylish semicircle wall, I could see the dimly-lit town
outside. There was even a large tree inside, decorated with Christmas-y
illuminations. The main pool here was larger than our schools, illuminated
from the ground with a strong red and green light, which helped with the
Christmas atmosphere. Right now, several customers were relaxing on the
beach chairs next to it.

Despite it being Christmas, not too many people were present. I guess they
wouldn’t come to the pool on a day like this. As a matter of fact, this was the
indoor pool of quite the expensive and high-class hotel.

My date with Kuu at Nekoranya ended, and right when I wanted to go meet
her, a car came to pick me up, and brought me here. After that, I received a
phone call from Nui herself, and changed into a swimsuit according to her
instructions—

“Thanks for waiting, Sai-kun!”

“………”

The door I just passed open, and jumping out was—Of course, Amanashi
Nui, wearing a swimsuit.

“How’s it looking? It’s the swimsuit I used before at the photoshoot!”

“Ah, reusing stuff is good, I appreciate it.”

“It’s extra service! I’m showing you a swimsuit you’d normally only be able
to see in a gravure idol shoot! Only you get to do it raw, Sai-kun!”

“…I see?”

I feel like I heard some indecent phrase in there, but I can’t retort on that. I
hate that sort of stuff after all.

“But, there’s other customers here, isn’t that a service for them as well?”

“Do you really think that people who come to such a hotel on Christmas care
about some gravure idol?”

104 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Fair point.”

There’s a lot of couples around, and they all look like celebs. They probably
don’t bother with a gravure idol.

“More importantly! What do you think about my swimsuit!?”

“Well…”

Of course, Nui was wearing a bikini. The bikini had a ribbon on it, giving it a
more cute feeling, but because it barely covers anything of her skin, totally
showing off Nui’s overwhelmingly large chest. Below she had a frilly skirt,
showing almost everything else—But, the design was for exactly that, so
everything was still safe.

“I-I think it’s cute?”

“Of course it is! I’m talking about how erotic it is! Does it get your heart
pumping with excitement!? That’s more important as a gravure idol and
youtsuber!”

“I don’t think being a youtsuber is related with this?”

That reminds me, Nui started streaming on youtsube as of late, right. Because
I was busy with events and exams, I didn’t have much time to check up on
that though.

“W-Well, it sure is erotic…Wait, what are you making me say!? I don’t want
to be the kind of character who blurts out this kind of harassment towards a
classmate!”

“But I’m happy to hear you feel that way. And, you admitted it, so let’s just
call it done.”

“Why do you sound so arrogant…”

I feel like she’s even more excited than her two predecessors. But, this is still
about what I expected from Nui.

105 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Ah, your swimsuit…doesn’t look too great, Sai-kun. Your skin’s so white,
and your limbs so slender, I should have prepared a one-piece swimsuit
instead.”

“Stop trying to pull out Saiko-chan during every single chance!”

I don’t want to fall for the taste of girl clothing!

“Tch, I thought I could enjoy our Christmas date as a yuri couple, so tasteful
that would have been.”

“Never in a million years…”

“Anyway, let’s play around here, Sai-kun. You must be tired because of the
other two dates before, and I’m not exactly super energetic after the party.”
Nui let out a sigh, and laid down on a nearby beach chair.

Her gravure idol breasts shook back and forth as a result…She sure is
defenseless. That being said, it’s true that I’m tired. The beach chair looks
mighty comfortable, so I’ll use that.

“Wah…this feels great…I can feel all the strength leave my body…”

“Right? Going to the pool during the winter makes you feel so chic.”

“Chic…”

Tasteful and chic, Nui is using words I would normally never hear from her.
Probably picked that up during her work, something along those lines.

“But, I still have to ask, Nui. You barely get reservations for a hotel like this
on Christmas, right?

“I asked my Papa~”

“P-Papa…? A sugar daddy?”

“Why do you always assume the worst, Sai-kun?” Nui gave me a sharp gaze.

106 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


I don’t know, I might have been poisoned by the internet.

“My real Papa! My father! Daddy! Amanashi Youichi!”

“…What? Who is your father, able to make reservations like this?”

“He’s just a company president. This hotel belongs to Papa.”

“P-Papa…? Paid dating…?”

“We’re back again!? My Papa is pretty rich, but he’s not someone suspicious,
okay! Probably!”

“Ah, sorry…I was just so shocked.”

I knew that a lot of children at Seikadai have wealthy parents, but isn’t Nui’s
family in the upper caste of that?

“He seems to be managing several hotels.”

“That’s even more amazing…”

“But, aren’t your parents working in international trade, Sai-kun?”

“They’re not company presidents, okay…”

They seem to be officials of sorts, or higher-ups, I’m not too familiar.

“Well, it’s not that important. Just now that once I make you my husband, I
won’t ask you to inherit the business.”

“Husband…”

I’d be pretty worried to leave this business to a daughter like Nui.

“Anyway…You went to the cloister with Pre—No, Karen-chan, and visited


the cat cafe with Kuu-tan, right?”

“You knew?”

107 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“In SID, we’re all working together. Although we cut ties with Maka-tea~”

“I guess it’s really too difficult to get along with everyone.”

Oh right, Maka-sensei turned into something like the last boss of SID. And
yet, she helped with picking presents for everyone from SID. Would the
Demon Lord really help the Hero’s party?

“These two took Sai-kun into their own playing field, right? But, I don’t have
anything like that. I can’t exactly use the outdoor pool during such a season.”

“Huh…”

She says, while practically having an indoor people like this. I can’t say that
the Saigi Family is poor or anything, but Nui’s is on a different level alright.

“That’s why, I figured the best way to show my charm is with a swimsuit!”

Nui suddenly pushed up her body, bringing it closer to me. Hey now, if you
move that suddenly, your chest will shake! I can almost hear the
onomatopoeia!

“W-Well, I think the pool’s a great fit for you, Nui. A southern island would
have been even better.”

“Ah, I thought about that. Let’s go to a resort by plane!”

“You don’t even speak English, how are you going to manage that?”

Although this is the last Christmas date of the day, I don’t want to go on a
trip overseas.

“I’m fine with the pool right here, honestly. But, talking about that, you went
on a lot of trips overseas after that photoshoot at the old school building,
right?”

“That photoshoot really helped, but it’s not just that. Only sometimes, when it
pays well.”

108 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“I see, so you gotta keep that in mind…”

Yet again I realize how I barely have any idea about that, or any for that
matter, business works.

“The last magazine I read had you without a swimsuit, going around with a
train and car, a ‘Going on a date with your girlfriend’ theme, right.”

“I really wanted Sai-kun to be the one taking the pictures, but as of late, they
started to not allow amateurs anymore…” Rarely enough, Nui dropped her
shoulders in defeat.

She probably really wanted me to take her pictures then.

“The situation’s different from before. Now that you actually got the needed
popularity, an amateur can’t participate in the photoshoot. This is something
worth celebrating.”

“H-Hmm…I don’t like it when things are so strict.”

That might be true, but what I’m saying is a fact. Having an amateur
participate in a photoshoot is something irregular, something that shouldn’t
happen a second time.

“Wait, did you diss me before?”

“……”

Tsk, I was hoping she wouldn’t realize.

“T-That was before, right. Now you’re selling like hot potatoes.”

“I guess!” Nui sat down on the beach chair again, emphasizing her breasts. “I
got requests from all sorts of publishers now, together with TV Offers, as
1
well as AV —”

“As if that last one is true!”

You’re a high school girl right now! And if possible, I don’t want you to do

109 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


that after you graduate either!

“It’s fine. The lowest I’ll go is the swimsuit. I don’t do underwear after all.”

“I-I see.”

I think your swimsuit appearance should be limited to R18 if you ask me…

“Right now, the number of Sai-kun’s most hated manga magazine gravure
idols is the highest after all.”

“I don’t hate them…”

I just won’t be buying the entire magazine just to look at the gravure idols.

“In the end, these magazines are easily sold and easily produced, so for
gravure idols like me, it’s an important working place. They sell more than
magazines for grown men! Nui-chan wants to be shown on every shounen
magazine cover!”

“That is some crazy aspiration…”

“In that sense, you’re pretty lucky that you get to see me in my swimsuit
appearance for free, Sai-kun!”

“Am I now.”

“So, how about we play a bit in the pool! I’ll show you my beautiful
swimming style!”

“Eh? We’re going to swim?”

Everyone around us was just loitering on the beach chairs, not a single person
swimming. Well, it’s not like we can’t be swimming…I didn’t resist Nui’s
grasp, and followed her towards the pool.

“Running around freely and carelessly is the right of a high school student!
Off you go!”

110 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Wah, hey…!”

Nui pushed me into the pool, which led the water to spray up high.

“Off I go as well! Ahh, the temperature is just great!”

“It’s not a hot spring after all…But, it does feel great.”

It’s not my first time using a warm pool like this, but it does feel great. It’s
almost like the exhaustion of the day is being washed away.

“Let’s go! I’m good at swimming! I often do it for my photoshoots!”

“I don’t see the reason why you would need to…Wait, so fast!?”

Nui blew past me like a fish trying to escape a shark. Since nobody else is
using the pool, she can be as rampant as she wants, but I still didn’t expect
that.

“Puha! Sai-kun, take a picture of me! Of my beautiful swimming!”

“A picture…Ah.”

Right, I still had my phone in hand after all. It should be fine being
waterproof, but I feel like there’s a different problem with that.

“Should I really have brought a phone to the pool…?”

“Hm? What’s the problem with that? Without that, you can’t take any
pictures, and you can’t upload them on social networks.”

“I guess, but…Aren’t you scared of being accused of peeping?”

“You’re so doubtful about the weirdest things, Sai-kun! If anything, you’re


always the target of peeping shots! From both boys and girls!”

“Don’t remind me of that!”

I don’t want to think of boys taking pictures of me! I’m neither Saiko-chan

111 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


nor Saiderella right now.

“Just take as many pictures as you want! Rather than some famous
cameraman, I might rather prefer Sai-kun to take my pictures! You’re the
cutest and most erotic of them all!”

“Can we drop that topic already?” I complained, but pointed the phone
towards her, taking a picture.

Hm…Compared to before, Nui’s expressions and poses are much more


fluent. Even in the midst of the water, I can easily take pictures of her.
Although her grades haven’t improved much compared to this spring, her
skill as a gravure idol definitely did.

“Don’t overdo it okay, Nui. I don’t have the confidence to carry you home
from here.”

“Ah, don’t worry about that.”

“I very well will…”

Nui swam towards me, and looked up at me with a very suggestive gaze. I-I
can see right into her cleavage…!

“The thing is…I actually rented a room here.”

“…Isn’t that something the man should say?”

There could only be one meaning when saying these words. First a cloister,
then a cat cafe, and now a hotel with an added room, what is going on? When
is she going to say ‘Just kidding’? I waited for these words, but Nui just
looked up at me, and held my hand.

“Let’s go…To our room…”

“……”

On this holy Christmas night, I was watching down the window from the
highest floor of this high-class hotel…How did I end up here again?

112 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


The room Nui had reserved was quite a bit larger than the one Maka-sensei
had taken me to before. It was a twin room, with two beds. Just by looking at
it, even someone uneducated about hotels could tell how high-class it was.

“Feels great to look down at other people for once~”

At the same time, the scenery was quite the sight to behold, as it was
sparkling everywhere because of the Christmas illuminations.

“Hey hey, Sai-kun.”

“…!?”

I turned around in shock, only to see Nui stick out her face from the
bathroom door. Her hair was drenched, and her shoulders were in the open.

“Are you really not going to join me for the shower?”

“As if I would!”

“A normal retort!? Come on, you did it with Miharun and Kuu-tan already,
right?”

“Miharu is my little sister, and Kuu is still in grade school, so there’s no


problem!”

There might actually be, but it doesn’t bother the Saigi and Shinju
Household, so all okay.

113 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


114 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“Ehh, I’ve been your classmate ever since grade school, you know?”

“Doesn’t help your case at all. Who takes a shower with a classmate!?”

“We already finished our kiss, so why don’t we just go take the next step?”

“……”

Hmm…I don’t know about that…I mean, Nui forced that kiss onto me, and
—Wait, I shouldn’t blame this on a girl.

“Just come on over~ Fresh up after the pool, same as always, right?”

“Taking away the fact that we’re a boy and girl!”

“You’re so stubborn at times. It’s Christmas night, so isn’t it a waste to take


separate showers?”

“I-I wonder…Even if we were a couple, isn’t taking a shower as a high


school boy and girl a bit too difficult of a hurdle…?”

Maybe my own perception is just off? Maybe this is something a normal


couple actually does?

“Just go back to taking a shower already! You’ll catch a cold looking like
this!”

“Ah, right. I forgot. I needed to talk about something with you, Sai-kun.
Could you bring me a small pouchfrom my bag? It’s pink, and small.”

“Tell me about that first…”

She better not be catching a cold because she’s fooling around like that. I
don’t like the idea of rummaging through her bag, but it’d be even worse if
she waltzed out here naked. I opened up her bag she had put down on the
bed, spotted the pouch, and took it out.

“Nui, I found it! I’ll leave it in front of the door!”

115 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


When I was looking for the pouch, Nui had closed the bathroom door. I guess
it got a bit too cold for her, huh.

“Hm?”

Suddenly, the door opened, and a hand poked outside—A hand!?

“Waoh…!”

That hand grabbed my wrist, and pulled me inside the bathroom.

“N-Nui!? What are you doing!”

The bathroom—had two sinks lined up next to each other, as well as a


shower room and toilet in the back. On the opposite side of that was a
bathtub, illuminated with a comfortable blue LED light. And, standing in
front of me, who landed on the floor, was—

“I don’t care about the pouch~ My main goal was to get you in here, Sai-
kun~”

—Nui, a bath towel wrapped around her body. Because of her large chest,
even the bath towel was not enough to hide them—Or push them back,
whichever you want to call it. Worse than that however is how I can look up
her thighs from the position I’m in!

“Then, let’s skip the shower and get straight to the bath?”

“That’s the same! I’ll be leaving now!”

“I’m wearing a bath towel, so there’s no need to panic like that.”

“Easier said than done…”

“You sure love to complain.” Nui walked forwards, sitting on the corner of
the illuminated bathtub.

She chose to use an extravagant motion, barely not revealing what was
beneath the towel.

116 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“I’ve shown you all sorts of appearances so far, a bath towel is nothing to
panic about now.”

“Just to let you know, we both are classmates, right?”

“We’re not exactly normal classmates anymore, don’t you think?”

“…I guess so.”

But, this situation is…We’re inside the same bathroom, during Christmas. On
top of that, she’s just wearing a bath towel right now.

“That being the case, tada!”

“…Well, at least you’re—Not wearing a swimsuit beneath!?”

I expected her to tease me, actually wearing something beneath the bath
towel, but that wasn’t the case. She was butt naked!

“Hehe, surprised?”

“Of course I would be!” I screamed, and turned my back towards her.

In that single moment however, I could see Nui’s bare breasts—as well as the
pink two spots on top.

“W-What are you planning, Nui?”

“I don’t have the time to rely on lucky pervert moments. I wanted to show
you my everything out of my own desire.”

“E-Everything…”

“Before I leave from your side, Sai-kun.”

“………Nui?”

“It’s not just Karen-chan and Kuu-tan. I also—How do I say it, we’re all
together.”

117 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“So you knew about that…”

I heard about this story from Karen-senpai at the cloister, as well as from Kuu
at Nekoranya—About what happens from now on. I always thought it was a
‘What-if’.

“Sometimes even the playful Manasshii has to be serious for a moment, you
know?”

“That’s fine and all, just put on some clothes before that…I can see
everything after all.”

“Nooo~”

“Who talked about being serious?”

I probably saw every single part of her, a place you normally wouldn’t see
from a gravure idol. I don’t plan on taking responsibility since it was so one-
sided, but I’ll at least hear her out—even if I don’t want to.

“450k channel subscribers!?” I let out a baffled scream, looking at the phone
screen. “T-This is a crazy number…”

Before, I was forced to use youtsube for a Nekoranya advertisement. That’s


why I know how crazy this number is. It’s gravure idol Amanashi Nui’s
personal channel, called ‘Nui Ch.’, and she did keep her name, but that’s
exactly what helps with her popularity.

“Well, I can’t beat the top streamers though~”

“I mean, they’re like TV celebrities with immeasurable popularity after all.”

“Something like that, I guess. You sure know a lot, Sai-kun.” Nui sat on the
bed next to me as she faced me.

Of course, she was wearing clothes now—Though, a school uniform for


some reason. Thanks to the A/C working in here, she didn’t need to suffocate
her breasts with a blazer. Even though she’s wearing a uniform, just because
we’re sitting on a hotel bed, I’m starting to feel all weird. Is that because I am

118 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


an adolescent boy?

No, can’t worry about that. There’s nothing weird with a JK wearing her
uniform on Christmas!

“Well, with 450k subs, you’re practically in the upper brass of the young
talent industry.”

“I see…”

I guess she could get a few TV appearances like that.

“With recent Vtsubers, the top class is at roughly 500k subs. There’s some
that blast ahead, but the upper ranks are between 300 and 500k.”

“Isn’t it pretty rare for a gravure idol to get so many views for her
streams…?”

I did rely on this system before, but I don’t have that much interest in that to
begin with. But, I know that sometimes your channel subscribers just stop
going up.

“With every video you upload, you get about 100k, maybe even 200-300k
views…Wah, there’s even one with one million!”

“That video just had me eating a mountain parfait. I don’t really know what’s
popular or not. There seems to be a lot of streams where they just eat in front
of the camera.”

“H-Huh…”

On the thumbnail of the video I could see Nui stretching out her small tongue
towards the mountain parfait, with some cream on her face. I was an awfully
cute picture, even leaving me in trance. I’m sure it’s just a video of her eating
parfait. My fantasies are just playing tricks on me.

“Huh? But, for it to get that many views…Did you get a good profit from
that?”

119 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Hmm…I’m doing my videos, as well as my gravure idol work. That’s why,
no matter how many views I get, it won’t raise my income. Everything that
comes, goes to Mama, and I get allowance from that. I get 7000yen every
month, not including my phone contract.”

“…A bit on the more fortunate end.”

It’s not that different from mine, for all the housework I’m doing. From what
I remember, streamers can get so-called ‘Superchats’ during these streams,
which give you a good amount of money. Maybe there’s some deal going on
in the background? Like collaborations?

Looking at her other videos’ thumbnails, she also does product reviews.
Drinks, food, makeup, even smartphone game reviews? They all seemed like
products unrelated to being a gravure idol, but I guess people like watching
that if it’s a cute girl. Also, there seems to be much more collaborations…
Even so, she only gets 7000yen a month…

“Can’t you stay independent from family and work like this, and get rich…?”

“Ah, Sai-kun’s got a creepy look on his face!”

Ah, not good…I was only focussed on the big money. It’s not like I’m greedy
for money, but it wouldn’t hurt to have some more.

“I don’t need that much money, okay. I can afford clothes, accessories, and
sweets.”

“Maybe you can even cut the sweets?”

“Sai-kun…People need rewards or they won’t work.”

Even if you give me such a depressing gaze now…

“Anyway, the Nui Ch. blew up, and I was even more popular as Amanashi
Nui-chan.”

“…I had no idea.”

120 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


I mean, it’s not like I never watched a single video. But, I never realized how
popular she actually was.

“I don’t really look at subs and views…Almost like the numbers I didn’t
bother with.”

“Sometimes you’re a real airhead, Sai-kun.”

“A-Airhead…!”

This girl has the guts to call me an idiot!

“B-But, well, I guess you’re pretty busy then? With work and your videos.”

“Want to take a look at my schedule, it’s pretty crazy.” Nui let out a snicker,
and showed me the schedule she was talking about on the phone screen.

A schedule app, huh—Wait a second!

“It’s this full…? I’m shocked you could keep it open today.”

“Because I kept it open for a while now. I’m just glad they agreed.”

You say it so lightly, but wasn’t it actually a lot of work? For both the office,
the manager, and Nui herself.

“You have all this work until New Year’s?”

“I do have a few days off at the beginning of the year though. But, I have to
record stuff, and photoshoots completely unrelated to my work. With
deadlines going on, I don’t have time to take it easy.”

“I-Is that so…”

I figured. This schedule really is too tight. Her work as a gravure idol isn’t as
bad, but with the TV appearances and movie recordings, it’s full every single
day. Is it really okay to let a high school student work this much, law-wise?”

“Management is telling me to participate in movies and dramas as well.

121 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


Honestly, I’m not sure if I can do any acting. I feel like they’d flame me
online for doing that.”

“You even plan on adding more work!?”

Leaving aside the problem of her actual acting, I don’t think she can
physically handle any more work than this.

“But, I don’t want to disappoint them! They’re all doing their work to ensure
that I get offers and get more attention.”

“…Even so, aren’t you focussing too much time on all these offers?”

“It’s not like I don’t have any breaks, and my manager is always worried
about me. But, I can’t.”

“That’s ridiculous.”

I can tell how Nui doesn’t want to deny any work. But, at this rate, she’ll
overwork herself. Not to mention that she already has school to worry about.
So, if she really wants to keep up this ridiculous schedule, then—

“That being the case, I can’t go to school anymore because I’m so busy.”

“………”

She said it like it was obvious, and yet her voice was filled with seriousness.
That right, I should have realized it sooner. On the first day of the school
festival, she didn’t make it in time for the play. Nui might seem a bit like a
loose cannon, but she is responsible. When I helped her with her work, I
realized how diligent she was with her work. Although it was just some
shabby play at school, now that she had received an important role, she
would try her hardest to not disappoint people. If I had to guess, work just got
too busy that she couldn’t make it in time.

And, even if she herself might have preferred to focus on the play, there’s no
doubt in my mind that the adults around her forced her to prioritize work. It
must have been something important where the excuse ‘I need to participate
in a play at school’ was not enough.

122 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Ah, saying that I can’t go is a bit too far off, I guess. But, I think that I’ll be
missing more and more. Thanks to you, my grades went up a bit, but as soon
as I’ll be more absent, they’ll continue to drop again until they’re back to
normal…or worse, even.”

“H-Hold on a second…That’ll make it difficult for you to go up to


university…”

“I…probably won’t be able to go there. Although being a gravure idol and


youtsuber isn’t the most stable work, I doubt I have time to attend
university.”

No way…

“B-But, your grades went up…”

“Nui-chan tried her best!”

“……”

I don’t think you could put your efforts into simple words like that…Even
under circumstances more difficult than anybody else, she worked hard
enough to raise her grades. She wanted to go on a Christmas date this badly,
and achieved the impossible. And yet, she’s telling me that she won’t have
the time to balance work and studies…

“So…what will you do, Nui?”

“Transfer to a school that has subjects related to entertainment.”

“……!”

“When I talk things through with the company president of the agency, he
said that he could get me through with some easy conditions.”

“I feel like your agency is pretty lax when it comes to that.”

I thought that something like that might be the case, but…

123 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Rather than having to repeat a year at Seikadai, the agency said it’d be much
better if I started attending school elsewhere. There, with the entertainment
studies, being absent and grades don’t matter that much.”

“I see…I guess so…”

I heard of schools that exist for entertainers. Since middle school talents can’t
attend school normally, they attend these kinds of schools that keep their
circumstances in mind better than any normal one. No matter how popularly
they may be, talents can be forgotten all too fast. In order to secure their
future, they give up on their high school days, but completely quitting school
was too insecure, so the agencies probably found a way to cope with that.

“I talked about this with Maka-tea as well.”

“…Eh? Oh wait, that makes sense, she’s your homeroom teacher.”

And, she didn’t tell me a single thing about that…Which also makes sense,
since she can’t just reveal private information like that. Even though she
would always prioritize me, she’s awfully stubborn about things like that.

“Seikadai might be kind enough to allow work on the side like I have, but
they do care about grades and participation. I showed my future schedule to
Maka-tea, and…”

“…And then?”

“She said that balancing work and studies will be difficult. Talking about
grades is one thing, but the number of absences will take a toll for sure.”

“I see…”

Maka-sensei probably didn’t reference her grades because they just went up.
However, it was clear as day that her absences would only go up in number,
looking at that schedule.

“I was shocked.”

“Eh? I mean, it makes sense that she would be strict.”

124 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“That’s not it. Maka-tea told me to lessen my work, and come to school.
Work hard on my studies. I really thought she would be happy to hear that I
won’t be around you anymore, Sai-kun.”

“No no no, Maka-sensei isn’t that much of a devil, okay!”

I did call her the Last Boss standing against SID, but she’s still a teacher deep
down! She wouldn’t just urge you to change schools! If anything, she would
be the first one to help you search for a way to balance things.

“Nui, it’s just as Maka-sensei said. I agree that your work is important, but…
as you said, there’s no guarantee in the future.”

“It’s fine, I know that much myself.” Nui showed a troubled smile.

Following that, she laid down on the bed.

“The agency is giving me lots of work right now, but that won’t stay like that
forever. I know how fast I can be pushed aside.”

“That is quite the severe way of thinking, Nui…”

“In my case, the manager’s kind, and I can put trust in the agency. They seem
to have connections with Papa’s company as well.”

“I-Is that so.”

“Also, I chose to stand on my own two feet. A career-up, or something? I


want to work on my own, not relying on anybody else.”

“I feel like a career-up is a bit different…But, I guess that sounds doable.”

You can’t live on obligation and humanity alone after all…I think at least.

“Ah, will you become my manager once I’m independent? Or, my personal
company president? Then you can have me whenever wherever you want.”

“E-Excuse me?”

125 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“You don’t know? Get me a drink, get me drunk, and then—”

“I don’t think that’ll help me in any shape or form, so don’t explain it to me!”

I feel like Nui has been poisoned by all these dirty adults. Still, we’re back to
the paid girlfriend again. Is there going to be a new heroine soon?

“I’m happy for the invitation, but I’m not the type of person to stand above
others…”

“What a shame. I feel like, with Sai-kun, we could take the industry in a
storm. Even if I get shoved away, as long as you make me your wife, I’m
happy.”

“Wife!?”

Where did that come from!?

“I’m joking, just joking. I actually—”

“…You already decided, right?”

“Yup.” Nui rolled over, and looked up at me.

“That’s why.” She gently raised her head, and put it on her lap.

“Hey, Nui…”

“That much should be fine, right. See, Sai-kun, Karen-chan is the leader of
SID, but…I was the first SID member, you know?”

“The first…?”

“That’s right. This year during Valentine’s Day, I got better as a gravure idol,
and finally built up some confidence, hoping that I could give you
chocolate….”

“You didn’t need that much confidence…”

126 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“As an asocial mob like me, I definitely needed that.”

Well, back in middle school, Nui was plain enough for me to not even
remember her.

“In middle school, I got to work as a gravure idol thanks to you. Ever since
then, I was in love with you…But, confessing was impossible the way I had
been. I thought I would take that step after getting some more confidence at
work, but I was still lacking the courage…Ahh, I can’t believe myself!”

With Nui’s head on my thighs, I listened to her words as she rampaged.

“When I was loitering around your shoe locker back then, I ran into Karen-
chan and the others. That sure was a shock. To think Sai-,un was that
popular.”

“Well sorry about that…”

Are you dissing me now?

“But, I was the first one who stood at the shoe locker! That’s why I’m the
first member of SID!”

“Huh? I don’t remember any chocolate in my shoe locker…”

“In the end, we all chickened out. You’re so complicated, we were afraid that
you might hate us for giving you chocolate.”

“How twisted do you think I am, really…”

I’m a healthy high school boy, so of course I’d be happy to get chocolate.
Who would hate you for that.

“Karen-chan and the others all ran away, but I called out to them, inviting
them for some tea.”

“And that’s…how SID started, huh…”

Karen-senpai might be a good leader, but she’s helpless when it comes to

127 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


love. Miharu normally can’t be bothered to talk with others. I can imagine
how Kuu must have been wary of these girls…Or, I pray she was.

“That’s why I’m the first member of SID. When Karen-chan came up with
the ‘It’s fine if I die’ alliance name, I regretted my decision a bit to be
honest!”

“Let’s not tell the person in question about that…”

It sounds like some good romantic material, but deep down she’s still
complaining. It’s fine if I die, huh. Karen-senpai probably really liked that
idea, so I’d feel bad for making fun of her.

“I won’t. But, Sai-kun.” Nui suddenly jolted up.

Because of how she was rampaging before, her uniform showed wrinkles and
openings here and there. A few buttons of her blouse were unhooked,
showing her cleavage inside. I could even see glances at her white thighs, and
beneath her skirt. Even though I’ve seen her in her swimsuit appearance, or
fully naked, the way she looked now was more alluring than any of that. And,
while I was staring at her—

“Nn.” Nui smiled, and pressed her lips on mine.

It was a short kiss, but Nui repeated this several times.

“N-Nui…”

“I don’t think I would be willing to die. But, in order to be together with you,
I’d be willing to quit my job as a gravure idol and as a steamer, you know?”

“…Which is it?”

Give up on Seikadai, or give up on her work.

“I can’t leave the decision to you after all, Sai-kun. This is about me, so I
don’t want to burden you with that. That’s why I decided on myself.”

“Nui…”

128 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“I worked really hard on my work so that Sai-kun would look at me.
Although you just skipped the magazines with my gravure shots though!”

“You still hold a grudge about that!?”

That being said, it’s the truth so I can’t argue against that.

“So that you keep looking at me, I’ll work even harder. Even if I can’t be
with you right now, I’m always in front of you, be it in magazines or on TV,
even online.”

“………”

It might be foolish to think this way, but…I think Nui is saying all of that
exactly because I won’t choose her. But, she’s not wrong about that, which is
why…

“Sai-kun, I love you. Because of you, a loner like Amanashi Nui, sitting in
the corner of the classroom, could become someone as I am right now. You
helped me like myself, and I’ve loved you for that ever since. Now, and
forever.”

“…Yeah. Thank you.”

129 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


130 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
I’m really happy to hear about her feelings like this. Being liked by a girl this
cute and cheerful is like a dream. However—

“You don’t need to say anything, Sai-kun. I might be an idiot, but I can tell
what you’re thinking at least.”

“Let me say this much. You’re not an idiot, Nui.”

“I’m happy to hear you say that, Sai-kunsensei. I’m your pupil after all.”

“…By the way, when are you going to transfer?”

“Once we move up to third-year. That’s why, I’ll be in your care a bit


longer.”

“So you’ll still be around for the end-of-term exams. Why don’t we go all
out, and get you to hang up on the hallway.”

“Ehhh!? Aren’t you expecting a bit too much now!?”

“If you can’t do that, you won’t be able to take the first spot in the
entertainment industry and as a streamer.”

“H-Hey, I was never aiming for the top, okay!”

“That’s the motivation you need, right. Let’s get this bread, Nui.”

“Gyaaaa! I love how you’re teasing me like this!”

“Woah!?”

Nui suddenly screamed out, and clung to me. Following that, she pushed me
onto the bed—pressing her breasts against me.

“N-Nui! Are you happy or angry, choose one!?”

“I’m both!”

Her breasts, who will continue to charm the entire world, are only mine for

131 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


this night. Of course, I know I’m thinking about something stupid. However,
if I didn’t—I’d probably start crying.

***

Outside the window was the color of Christmas. What exactly is the color of
Christmas? I don’t know myself, I only know how the expression works. The
sky had turned dark, and yet the lights were burning bright, the streets full of
people. Everybody looked happy—is probably a lie. The world isn’t as naive
as that.

That reminds me, the Nekoranya of the past was filled with lonely women on
Christmas. We still have the same regulars as six years ago, but I don’t dare
invade their personal space. I am a diligent manager after all.

“Now then…preparations should be complete.”

I moved away from the window, and looked over the floor. I found myself on
a new building’s third floor, offering enough space. There were tables and
chairs lined up, as well as cat toys, covered with dusty covers. The door to
the kitchen and staff room was fully open. Since no customers were present,
there was no problem whatsoever. Three chairs, as well as one table was set.

“Heeey, I’m here, Kuu-tan!”

“Huh, this is quite the comfortable atmosphere you have here.”

“Ah, welcome.”

The entrance door opened, and entering were—

“What was it, Nekoranya’s 3rd branch store? It’s going to be an


establishment more aimed at adults, right?”

“Well, cat cafes are always comfortable…But, it sure is chic.”

One person wore a deep cap with a mask, as well as dark glasses. She had her
long reddish-hair tied up, wearing a men’s jumper which made her seem
quite suspicious—Amanashi Nui-san.

132 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


The other had long black hair, wearing a coat that emphasized her silhouette,
giving off a prim and proper, calm atmosphere—Jinsho Karen-san.

Even now, I still call the two Nui-oneechan and Karen-oneechan. As for
myself, I am wearing Seikadai’s high school blazer, and Nekoranya’s staff
apron on top. The cat design on it is something I sewed on it, and I think it’s
very cute.

“I feel bad for using it before you actually open it up. Though it probably
helps you out a lot, Amanashi Nui.”

“It’s tough being famous, let me tell you. Can’t even walk into normal
stores.”

This is Nekoranya’s 3rd branch store, before opening up in the new year.
Since the preparations had been finished, I was given permission to use it just
for today. Since I went from regular to part-time jobber to manager, I
received this special right. Thank you very much, Fujiki-san.

“Yet, they don’t always bother with me when I pass them on the street. I
can’t tell if they’re being considerate, or…am I already forgotten?”

“I wouldn’t say so, Nui-oneechan, you’re a pretty big topic at school. It’s
manners to not panic or take any pictures without their consent.”

“I wonder about that. Amanashi Nui has been the most rampant girl at
Seikadai.”

“I was young and naive back then. Look at me now, I’ve grown up to be a
mature woman!” Nui-oneechan said, striking poses like she was a model.

Mature, is it. Of course, when I would throw a retort in like that, the
conversation would drift elsewhere. Since I’m clever, I won’t do that. This is
something Sensei taught me after all. For now, the two took off their coats,
and sat down on the chairs. In the meantime, I headed off to the kitchen, and
brought them drinks and some snacks I had prepared previously.

“Sorry about this, Shinju Muku. We had you do everything in the end.”

“Don’t worry about it, I am a staff member here at Nekoranya after all. And,
I’m happy that you rely on me.”

After six years, SID held another meeting like this. Though, the two members
who left previously aren’t here. Honestly, I never expected for us three to
meet up like this on Christmas, but that had me excited when preparing for
this event.

“Haa…You really are a good girl, no matter how many years will pass, Kuu-
tan. How did you grow up to stay this pure?”

“I-I’m not that pure…E-Even I think about lewd stuff from time to time!”

Ahh, what am I even saying?

“Prez, she’s blushing just because of that. What do you think?”

“W-Well, isn’t that fine? I was always worried about her being part of our
group, despite only being in grade school.

…I feel like I’m being made fun of. Also, I don’t know when it happened,
but Nui-oneechan suddenly went back to calling Karen-oneechan ‘Prez’.
Maybe because she feels more comfortable that way?

“First, how about a toast. To SID’s final reunion!”

““To SID’s final reunion!””

Nui-oneechan raised her glass, to which Karen-oneechan and I joined in.

“Phew…Sid, huh. How many years has it been since I heard that name.”

“Prez, you decided on that name yourself, didn’t you? But, it’s been about six
years now. Ever since that Christmas, I never said it myself.”

The two were taking a sip from their drinks, talking about the past.

135 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Since that Christmas, so much time has passed since then, huh.”

“I really feel bad. It couldn’t be helped, but forcing Sai-kun on a triple date
like that…”

“We all three gave our goodbyes after all…”

That’s right, six years ago, the three of us all went on a Christmas date with
Sensei. It was back when I was still in grade school, barely eleven years old.
Karen-oneechan, Nui-oneechan, and me, we all said farewell to Sensei.

“I transferred to a different school because of my entertainment biz work. As


for Prez—”

“I got third place in the national mock exam, and the talk of me going
overseas for my studies came up. I think I was the first case in Seikadai.”

“So you were the guinea pig…Kuu-tan, are you sure going to a school like
that was a good idea?”

“I-It’s fine. There’s many other people who want to do the same as Karen-
oneechan did.”

Leaving aside Nui-oneechan’s dubious thinking, greatly resembling Sensei,


Seikadai is a prestigious school who often allows students to study overseas.

“When they brought that up, all the support from school and the tuition
money was still pretty unclear, and I hesitated a lot…”

“Not to mention that you were planning on winning over Sai-kun with your
four years of university.”

“H-Hmpf…I didn’t expect such a big chance to come. It’s just…when I heard
about that, it felt like a way had opened up for me. Like I had received a
divine intervention.”

Karen-oneechan seems a bit apologetic. It makes sense for you to focus on


your dream once it is in your reach. This was all thanks to her hard work.

136 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“You both are pretty amazing. In the end…I could only go along with my
own selfishness.”

“Ahahah, that’s how you felt, Kuu-tan?”

“You’re thinking about it too deeply.”

“B-But…”

That’s right, on that Christmas day six years ago, I, Shinju Muku, gave my
farewell to Sensei. But, to be more accurate, it was about speaking something
akin to a farewell, which never turned into one.

“My own circumstances were never that problematic to begin with. It was
decided abruptly that my father had to move for work, and the question was if
me and mother would move together with him, or have him move alone…
They asked me what I wanted to do. The obvious thing would have been to
move as a family, and yet…”

Back at the main store of Nekoranya—which was the only store at that time,
when I talked to Sensei about this, his surprised reaction was one I could
never forget. He’s known me ever since I was a child, so hearing that I would
be leaving left him speechless.

“Well, normally you’d get dragged along without any right to speak, at your
age.”

“Yes, I am very thankful to my parents.”

In my case, I was attending a prestigious private school, so not hearing me


out in that case—was too tough for them. At the same time, they apparently
were aware of me being a bit ‘different’ than the other children. They were
worried that if my environment suddenly changed, I would go through too
much mental stress. Well, I stayed home from school for a long time, and
often left my home so I can’t blame them. Either way, I already explained it
to these two.

“Sensei said that it couldn’t be helped, but…He seemed so defeated…that I

137 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


chose to stay here with my mother. In the end, I troubled Sensei with what I
said, and did something unnecessary.”

I’m different from Karen-oneechan and Nui-oneechan, who chose to leave


Sensei’s side.

“It can’t be helped. You probably couldn’t decide on your own, and needed
to confirm Saigi Makoto’s reaction. I’m sure it was better than not saying
anything.”

“I-I wonder…”

That confession back then is actually something I’d rather not think about,
but can I just forget about it like this?

“Because I stayed here, I could stay with Sensei and the others, even all the
other cats…and I even became the student council president.”

“Haha, you said you wanted to do that in the future, right. I was shocked to
hear you actually pull it off. It’s rare to see someone follow through with
what they say.”

“I-I really am weird…How embarrassing…”

“No, I admire that way of thinking. I am proud to know that you inherited my
position.”

Hearing that from the legendary ‘President Karen’ feels a bit weird—but I’m
really happy.

“Still, a lot happened back then, during Christmas night!” Nui-oneechan must
have been considerate of me, and changed the subject.

Nui-oneechan really turned into an adult. I think she’s 23 now.

“I was really happy about Sai-kun’s christmas present. What did you two get
again? Prez got perfume, and Kuu got a cat key strap, right?”

“I’m still using it.” Karen-oneechan took out a small perfume bottle, and put

138 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


it on the table. “Of course, it’s not the exact bottle I got back then, but I still
use the same brand. A friend told me to get something better, but…I like it.”

“I still use the key strap as well…although it’s pretty worn down by now.” I
took out the key strap I was talking about.

I always have it with me, or at home hidden. It’s a maiden’s secret, and as a
high school girl, you have a lot of those.

“I got these glasses. Great, right?” Nui-oneechan pointed at the fake black
glasses on her nose.

He gave this to her as a present so that she could hide herself, seeing that she
was a celebrity of sorts. Apparently, Miharu-oneechan figured out her size
through a picture.

“Well, he needed to add that unnecessary ‘I thought you’d look more clever
than you actually are’ right after, ruining the moment!”

“You sure love to hold grudges, Amanashi Nui.”

That’s Sensei for you, not holding back at all. Apparently, Sensei tried to be
considerate with that.

“That night, I stopped being a member of SID, but I still treasure this. It’s
like a lingering attachment?”

“…Then I’d be the same…” Karen-oneechan groaned.

“Right now, I’m the only member of SID, and its leader, so you can join back
with my permission.”

“…You sure have grown, Shinju Muku. It’s all up to your decision if we can
rejoin or not.”

“I have a lot of money if that’s what you want?”

“Hey, don’t bribe a high school girl, Amanashi Nui!”

139 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


The three of us started laughing. We might even get along more than back
when we were SID members.

“We sure talked a lot about the past. But, with us three here, that might not be
such a bad idea.”

“Maybe we should have called Shiya-paisen and Miharun here as well.”

“It’s hard to figure out Saigi Miharu’s current location, and Shiya-senpai is
always busy with winter courses.”

“That reminds me, you two must be as well, right?”

“Haha, I’m still something like a student myself. I can come back home over
Christmas after all.”

Karen-oneechan is currently studying religious relationships at a university in


Amerika, and is now in an internship as well.

“Since I retired as a gravure idol last year, it’s been pretty calm for me as
well. I’m keeping it calm with the videos as well.”

As for Nui-oneechan, she quit as a gravure idol last year. Age-wise, she could
still continue, but her peak has passed, or something along those lines. Even
so, she did turn into a legend of a gravure idol. Because of that, it caused a
big ruckus when she decided to retire. Especially because she was a top class.
I’m glad we all got the time to get together like this.

“How’s it going as the student council president, Kuu-tan? I can imagine that
it must be great having a boss like you.”

“Excuse me, but are you insulting me and Shinbou Enri?”

“Because you went overseas to study, Karen-oneechan, it’s become like a


premise for the student council president to have top-class grades…”

“I-It’s my fault after all!?”

I was only joking a bit. It’s true that she turned into something like a legend,

140 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


with every student knowing her name.

“I somehow managed to get the top grades.”

“You were always a pretty clever girl, Kuu-tan.”

“The student council is supposed to be a leader after all. It’s not me who was
weird.”

How cute. She’s trying to make up excuses.

“Ah, your glass is empty. Have some more.”

I poured some more drinks into the glasses. It’s like we went back to six
years ago. Everyone should have changed since then, and yet it’s like nothing
changed.

Hey, Sensei. That night, SID might have ended after all. Even now, I feel like
continuing as a member, but this might be the reality. Sensei…When SID
disbanded…that night, where did you go? It was Sensei’s secret, something
not even Miharu-oneechan knew. Or…should I say that it’s Sensei’s and
Maka-chansensei’s secret?

Back to six years ago!

Chapter 5: Nobody knows about my
Girlfriend Teacher’s and My
Christmas

I left the hotel, and walked through the streets, all alone. Nui mentioned
she’ll sleep in that hotel room. The normal Nui would have invited me to
sleep there with her. I guess she had already accepted this result, and thus
didn’t press me any further. I did feel sad about that—but I knew that this
was just selfish. I can’t miss spending time with her now that she has drawn a
conclusion.

“………” I pushed up the scarf around my neck, burying my face inside of it.

This scarf was actually Nui’s Christmas present. She said it wasn’t too
expensive, but it definitely warned me up, and was comfortable to touch. It
was plain as day that this must have cost a lot, and made me realize how
strong Nui’s feelings were for me. I actually felt bad for giving her some fake
glasses as a present.

From President Karen, I got a cap, from Kuu I got gloves, and Nui gave me a
scarf. On top of that, Shiya-chan chose this coat, and Miharu gave me the
body bag. It’s like the entirety of SID coordinated my clothes…Now I’m
starting to feel regrets after all.

“Phew…” I breath escaped my lips, colored snow white.

Yet, there was no snow falling. This was the holy night where the three girls
who had feelings for me gave their farewells. It would be perfect if it actually
snowed now, but the heavens apparently didn’t feel like playing along. And,
as I didn’t have any place to return to, wandering aimlessly through the street

142 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


—a red fiat appeared.

I want to go somewhere I can be alone with Maka-sensei.

Why did I say something careless and impulsive like that? I was always
careful so that the distance between us wouldn’t get too close. Or, is that
really the case? I might have complained all the time, but deep down, wasn’t
I enjoying my time with her? I mean, she’s a super beauty, and basically lives
only for her ‘education’ with me. Since I’m a healthy high school boy, there’s
no way I wouldn’t enjoy getting such attention from someone like her. If
anything, it’s weird to think I didn’t cross the line with her yet.

“Today you’re not only stylish, but also calm. What a rare Saigi-kun I
happened to catch.” Skillfully controlling the fiat, Maka-sensei gave me a
glance.

143 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


144 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“…Do I usually talk that much?”

“The teachers have their talk about you, from middle school to now.
Hoshina-sensei even praised you for that, while growing pale.”

“…Did I really trouble Hoshina-sensei that much?”

If anything, I feel like it wouldn’t be weird for her to hate me. I’d love to get
an excel file of Maka-sensei where it shows all the badmouthing the teachers
are doing about me.

“It’s fine, your current homeroom teacher will teach you until the very end,
no matter how troublesome you may be.”

“So you’re not denying it. Then again, I’m mostly aware of it.”

“Yes. Remember, I still have work tomorrow, so I can’t play along too
much.”

“Teachers really don’t have any Christmas, huh.”

Is this some kind of bullying so that young teachers can’t enjoy Christmas?

“It really seems like I shouldn’t become a teacher at Seikadai.”

“My, what a shame. Whatever school you might choose—No, society in


general won’t allow you to enjoy Christmas. In most cases, it’s a normal
weekday.”

“Guess I should enjoy Christmas while I still can, huh.”

“Didn’t you have fun today? Going on dates with three girls, feeling like a
popular guy for once.”

“…It was fun…But…”

For some reason, the words wouldn’t come out. Even the usual talkative
Saigi-kun seems to have times where he can’t speak properly.

145 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Take your time. You have the look like you want to talk about something.”

“That’s Sensei for you…you saw right through me.”

I don’t think today is something I should talk about, but my heart is forcing
me to speak up.

“Please, listen to what I have to say, Sensei. First—what happened at the


cloister.”

“Yes, I’m listening. I’m driving extra carefully so that you don’t go
screaming like you always do.”

“Why thank you…”

It’s true that she was keeping her driving under control today, which makes it
easier to talk. Otherwise I’d be shaken left and right. While watching the
Christmas scenery blow past me outside the window, I spoke of the dates
today. But, only about what happened at the facility and cloister, the cat cafe,
and hotel. I can’t tell her what we did in detail after all…And, I’ll pretend I
didn’t see her eyebrow twitch when I said the word ‘hotel’.

W-We didn’t do anything indecent in there! Nui was naked? I’ll take that
secret to the grave with me. And, it’s not necessary information either.
Rather, I spoke of SID’s future plans.

“Well, I knew about it.”

Those were Maka-sensei’s words after I was done speaking. Well, I figured
as much. Knowing Maka-sensei, the changes of her being aware of this were
extremely high after all.

“The other students don’t know of Jinsho-san’s plans yet, but it’s quite the
topic between the teachers. This will be the first time a student will actually
study overseas like that, not to mention that a famous university.”

“I guess I wasn’t doubtful enough. I thought it was weird for Karen-senpai to


be called to the student guidance counselling, even though she had already
decided on her path in the future.”

146 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Even then you get called in at times. There’s quite a few who change their
mind mid-way. In Jinsho-san’s case, the school was the one who brought up
this possible change. Apparently, they were planning on having students
study overseas like that. Now that someone with such good grades has
arrived, they saw their chance.”

“I feel like you would need to talk about that much earlier than they did it
now.”

As far as I know, her plans had been to stay at Seikadai this summer. To
think in these past few months, her life would change that much…I guess this
is the ‘hope’ Sister Eva talked about.

“It wasn’t much, but I gave Jinsho-san some advice as well. I knew a few
things about the school over there.”

“That reminds me, you also went overseas to study, right…”

“For me it was only short-term though, so my case is different from Jinsho-


san. It was a different university from Seikadai as well. When I was in high
school, Seikadai didn’t offer anything like that.”

“You got the first spot in the national mock exam after all. If there was
something like that, they would have surely offered that.”

“There’s no big difference between second or third place. However, I’m not
too sure if I would have accepted it either way.”

“Eh? I feel like that would have opened up your future prospects quite a bit if
you accepted that.”

“It’s not that simple. Not to mention that I wouldn’t have gotten to be there
for their moment of death.”

“…I guess that makes sense.”

I didn’t even need to ask who she was talking about—Fuuka Shiki-sensei. I
never asked when she passed away, but since Maka-sensei has her fiat, it was

147 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


probably after she graduated from high school.

“And then, I wouldn’t have gotten to meet Saigi-kun—No, actually, Keimi-


san might have come chase me, and would have taken you with her. Then it
might have been an even more romantic encounter! I’m sure!”

“………”

That is some strong mentality…I feel like no matter what kind of path she
chose, we would have probably ran into each other.

“But, we were talking about Jinsho-san. It makes sense that she would accept
this offer, I don’t think a chance like this will ever come again.”

“…Right.”

“Your face says that you’re not satisfied yet. However, this is something she
has decided on herself.”

That’s right. I understand the logic. She should choose the future that is most
promising for her. But, even if I get it—

“As for Amanashi-san, she came to ask me for advice.”

“…Yes, she mentioned that as well.”

“In her case…I can’t agree. Seikadadi is a great school, and I want her to
work hard at least until graduation.”

Only one more year…However, that one year will be difficult for Nui.
Normally, we should have had our university life together, for the next five
years.

“However, if Amanashi-san has chosen this option, then I will support her.
Even if she may be a problem child, I am her teacher after all.”

“…Yes. It’s just, I’m more worried about Nui than Karen-senpai.”

After all, Karen-senpai is much further away from me. Even if the school

148 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


accepts her circumstances as an entertainer, will she really make it through
the school terms? And, can she even make it in this harsh business? Nui is
way too honest for her own good after all…

“I’ll try my best to gather some information even after she transferred
schools, and let you know.”

“W-Will you do that?”

That’s quite reassuring. I just feel like Nui won’t even bother to contact me
herself.

“However, since Muku-san is in grade school, I can’t do anything about


that.”

“Hmm…I have a feeling that Kuu won’t move after all.”

“Why do you think so?”

“Kuu still seemed unsure about it. Kouko-sensei might be spoiling her quite a
bit, but her father is even worse in that. He would surely be lonely without
the two, but he deeply respects Kuu’s opinion.”

“I see. I’m sure they would regret taking Muku-san away from this school
she worked so hard for to get into. Transferring from a private school isn’t
that easy as well.”

“Eh, really?”

“If you want to transfer from a private school to another, there’s several
conditions. For example, you need the permission of the previous school.
And, if there’s nobody dropping out of the private school, you won’t even be
accepted as a transfer student. I doubt her parents put her into Seikadai only
to let her attend a public school now.”

“Well, I guess they were thinking about Kuu’s future.”

I don’t remember much from the time Kuu got her entrance exams for
Seikadai’s Grade School Division. She’s clever, so I doubt many problems

149 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


happened. But, just letting her leave elsewhere in uncertainty is also…

“Also…we have the elevator in Seikadai, so leaving that would be a waste…I


guess…”

“If Muku-san keeps up her studies as she does now, she will surely make it
up to Seikadai’s university, and I don’t think that her parents would want her
to go through the pain of entrance exams elsewhere.”

“…I guess that makes sense.”

Way too many things happened tonight, I’m glad there’s at least some faint
hope. Well, there’s no guarantee that Kuu might actually stay here. This is
something she and her family have to decide on, so I can’t step in. But…I
feel a bit relieved.

“Maka-sensei.”

“Yes?”

“Before, you said that we don’t have much time anymore, right?”

“That makes it sound like I’m about to die. I guess I should have been more
careful in my choice of words. But, what about it?”

“I guess that members of SID didn’t have much time either. Kuu might be
staying, or going far away. However, Karen-senpai and Nui are two that I
won’t be able to see again. At the very least, not that easily.”

“Amanashi-san will surely have to move, and become unavailable through


the new school, and her work. They will surely prepare a new place for her to
stay at.”

“Ah…I see…”

Hearing it this bluntly, it was quite the shock. I never thought about it. Even
though I tend to think about everything that comes my way, I must have
subconsciously stopped myself from considering that.

150 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Saigi-kun, are you angry?”

“Eh?…About what?”

“About the fact that I kept quiet concerning Jinsho-san and Amanashi-san’s
case.”

“I knew that you weren’t the type of person to just leak personal information
like that.”

This is what I truly felt. I knew that Maka-sensei did the right thing.

“That makes it easier for me.”

“I know how diligent you are about these sorts of things, Maka-sensei.”

Then again, there’s way too many things I still don’t know about. But, I do
know that she isn’t a bad person.

“…Sensei. Maka-sensei.”

While looking outside the window—I wasn’t even gazing at the scenery. I
was merely focussed on the idiotic me reflected in the window.

“I was always on the receiving end of SID. They suddenly confessed, and
approached me all seriously like that. But, in the end…”

The gravure idol photoshoot with Nui at the old school building, Kuu running
away from her family, stranded at our place, President Karen coloring her
hair blonde and causing a ruckus at school, Miharu suddenly applying as
student council president, Shiya-chan and her lingering regrets from her high
school days—trouble was always right around me, and yet…

“I had fun. Even if I was troubled, I enjoyed every moment.”

The only person I should be angry at is myself for not realizing this sooner.
But, I don’t even have the energy to be angry.

“I’m glad to hear that.”

151 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“…Eh?”

“I’m sure that, once you look back on your high school days in a few years—
it’ll be thanks to everyone from SID that you will be able to smile.” Maka-
sensei sounded awfully calm.

Is she…jealous of me, because she had lost her own high school days?

“That reminds me, Sensei. Are you sure not defeating everyone from SID?”

“To them, I was a last boss of sorts. Without me, their choices might have
been different.”

“So you won without fighting…”

“We were always fighting, day by day. From how I can see it, they were very
strong.”

I don’t think she was putting up an act. I know how much hostility she held
towards SID.

“I don’t know if I won or not. There’s still one person left.”

I know that she was busy with work, but Maka-sensei still kept silent this
entire time. She might have been considerate because she knew that this was
the last time I could spend with Karen-senpai and Nui.

“The last boss always shows superiority until the final battle. There’s also
times where the adventurers end up at a game over before they arrive at the
Demon Lord’s throne room. I’m feeling lonely there.”

“………”

With this, Maka-sensei’s battle against SID is over. Kuu is still left, but I
doubt things will stay the same.

“Anyway, we’re here.”

“Yes…Wait, why here?!”

152 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


The fiat drove towards its destination. To think she would take me here…

“Welcome to my castle!”

“……”

On the second floor of the second school building, there was a room ⅓ of a
normal classroom’s size, four desks in the center to create a circle. Most
people know this as the English Preparation Room of Seikadai.

“Is it really okay for you to take a student here this late?”

“Of course not. If we get caught, everything is over.”

“E-Everything…!”

It was a lot of trouble just to get to this room, as I had to hide in the back of
the fiat until we made it to the parking lot, and while walking through the
school, I had to be careful of security cameras, making me feel like I was
playing some stealth game. Well, Maka-sensei knew of those, so it wasn’t
actually that hard, but I was still scared.

“Also, did you already finish your work, Sensei?”

“I went for a drive to get some food and change of pace. I didn’t expect to
spot you there.”

So the two of us really are bound together by destiny…Maybe we really


might have ran into each other overseas.

“Ah, did you eat dinner already, Saigi-kun?”

“Not yet…I’m not too hungry, to be honest. I had some great chicken this
afternoon.”

“You have to eat something, although I won’t force you.” Maka-sensei stood
in front of her desk, and pushed away the documents.

They’re probably all documents I shouldn’t be seeing.

153 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Even though there’s no endless rain, why does there have to be endless
work?”

“No, your work will end one day!”

There was also a laptop on her desk, with countless windows open where it
wouldn’t be weird to freeze up any second. Next to it, the mountain of
documents. It’s a clear battlefield.

“I mean, no matter how busy you are, you should be able to go home, right?
Especially now that the second term has ended.”

Are teachers not allowed to breathe or something?

“I can take a break if I want to, but then it’ll be tough schedule-wise.”

“That sounds depressing if you ask me.”

“Saigi-kun…there are times when you have to work further than the last train
goes.”

“Can we stop this conversation already?”

It makes me want to cry.

“I do think that I’m the only one working this late. Hiyori-sensei escaped
before school even closed. She promised she’d go through this hell together
1
with me…You idiot !”

“I-I figure that she went on a date. She seems to be married as well.”

“Married? Hiyori-sensei is single.”

“Ehhh!? B-but, that ring on her finger…?”

“I don’t know myself. There’s a legend that says someone put it on her as a
prank, and she can’t remove it.”

“That’s impossible.”

154 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


But, knowing Renku Hiyori-sensei, that might just be the case.

“On a side note, Hihyori-sensei left this here.”

“…What a wonderful present.”

Next to Maka-sensei’s desk stood a small Christmas tree. I guess she was
trying to cheer up Sensei because she had to work during Christmas?

“That reminds me, Hiyori-sensei will take over her family’s business after
working here for a few years. Though, I don’t know what this family business
is.”

“Huh…Becoming a teacher here must have been tough.”

“I’ve known Hiyori-sensei ever since our high school days, but once that
happens, we won’t be able to see each other that often anymore.”

“……..”

I feel like Maka-sensei is trying to teach me something. She probably didn’t


bring me to school for her own convenience. There was something for me to
learn here, and she’s giving me hints as to what that is.

“Since you’re used to the elevator system here at Seikadai, it probably never
really set in for you, but human relationships change and evolve on a constant
basis. It’s not rare for you to lose someone special to you.”

“…Right…I guess I was too childish.”

I’ve never experienced saying farewell to someone important to me. I mean,


with Kouko-sensei, and the gal from middle school, I got to meet them again
so easily. However, Maka-sensei experienced farewells twice already. The
first time when her parents divorced, she was separated by her mother and
little sister. And—when her former teacher left this world behind.

“Maybe it’s because I’m a child…that I can’t stand this.” I sat down on a
nearby chair.

155 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


I’ve come this far, but even standing alone was too tough for me. I didn’t
expect to be this shocked.

“Karen-senpai, Kuu, Nui…I don’t want them to leave me. I thought we’d
always stay at Seikadai. But, those were just my selfish thoughts…and
everyone already decided on the path they wanted to take…”

“…Saigi-kun.” Maka-sensei gave me a glance, and closed her laptop.

She walked towards me, and stopped a few inches from my face.

“Hey, Maka-sensei. Whenever some trouble happened, I would act behind


the scenes, and feel gratified when helping someone. But, in the end I was
just playing around.”

“The people you saved were all thankful.”

“But, when a situation like this happens, then even I can’t do anything. It
makes me realize how much of a brat I am.”

“Jinsho-san and the others aren’t gone yet, Saigi-kun.”

“Should I chase Karen-senpai to the airport, and act up some emotional


‘Don’t go’ speech? Should I go out with Nui, and announce that ‘I’m her
boyfriend’ in an official video so that her career gets ruined? Can I really tell
Kuu to ‘Stay with me’, hoping that she will convince her parents that she can
stay here?”

“It might be worth trying that out.” Maka-sensei showed an earnest nod.

“…I was joking. I can’t do that just because I treasure them. I’m scared of the
responsibility of destroying their futures for my own sake.”

I’m a child after all. Scared of changing someone else’s life, watching the
people important to me leave.

“That’s enough, Saigi-kun.”

“……!”

156 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


Maka-sensei put her hands on my cheeks, pressing her lips on mine. They
were soft, and still a bit cold because we were just outside.

“There doesn’t need to be some dramatic conclusion. It’s not because you’re
a child. Everybody eventually runs into a wall. That still happens as an
adult.”

“…I guess I should give up, right.”

Maka-sensei embraced me, gently enough to suck me in. Her waist was so
slender it had me worried. Does she even have any organs inside of that
body?

“Was it…the same for you as well, Sensei?”

“When I lost my mother and Tenka, I couldn’t do anything. I couldn’t leave


my father all alone.”

As a result, she received sympathy as a ‘poor child’.

“The same was the case with Fuuka-sensei. I couldn’t do anything about it.”
Maka-sensei gently tapped me on my back.

Was it just my imagination, or was her hand slightly quivering?

“Despite raising her fist against all the delinquents at school, she said she
wanted to teach until she turned into an old lady…Even though she wasn’t
even that good at teaching, she said it so confidently…and then all of a
sudden…”

Not only her hand, but her voice was quivering. I realized that I made her go
through some traumatic memories because I kept blabbering on like that.

“That’s right, I couldn’t do anything. No matter how precious, how important


these people are, there will come a day for them to leave you. There are
wishes and dreams that will go unfilled.”

“Should you say that, as a teacher?”

157 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“I’m saying it because i am a teacher.” Maka-sensei spoke indifferently.

However, I could feel a strong weight behind her words, telling me that this
was not an illusion.

“As a teacher, there are times when I need to tell my students to give up on
something. Even if they end up hating me in the process. I can’t complain
about what Hoshina-sensei did with Amanashi-san.”

“I guess so…”

There are times when effort won’t solve all of your problems. And I
definitely can’t ruin all of their efforts just because I want to.

“It’s a shame, but that’s my job. I have to make sure that the future of a
student is as promising as possible.” Maka-sensei said, gently embracing my
back.

So warm…and reassuring.

“Is it…fine to give up? See everyone off with a smile?”

“That’s for you to decide. The best I can do, as your girlfriend teacher, is to
comfort you on this night that left you hurt.”

“Maka-sensei…”

Before I realized it, I had taken off the upper part of Maka-sensei’s suit. I
think that Maka-sensei let her skirt drop herself.

“Saigi-kun…”

“Maka-sensei…Sensei…”

She’s my girlfriend teacher—neither my girlfriend nor my teacher, a vague


existence. I didn’t even prepare a present for her. Not because I didn’t expect
to meet her, but rather because I don’t think there’s anything I can give her.
I’m always on the receiving end. And yet, my hand wouldn’t stop. It moved
towards maka-sensei’s blouse, opening up the buttons.

158 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“Mm…” Maka-sensei let out an embarrassed breath.

Her cleavage appeared, only hidden by her black bra. I swallowed my saliva.

“Sensei…over here…”

“Y-Yes…”

I had Maka-sensei sit down on an empty desk, and I longed for her body as I
sat on my chair still.

“You don’t…Mm…need to rush like that…”

“S-Sensei…”

I pushed up her bra, revealing her bare breasts beneath. I’ve seen them
countless times before, but today, they looked so beautiful—and erotic. I put
my lips on the pink peak on her breasts, and tasted it. To think I would cross
the line tonight of all the days.

“Mm…Ah…Haaa…” Maka-sensei desperately tried to hold back her voice.

I just became fully focussed on the tip of Maka-sensei’s breasts, as a suckling


sound rang out. Her long legs moved behind me, pulling me closer towards
her. She was asking for this as well.

“Saigi-kun…Ah…No…Don’t cling to me like this…”

“I-I can’t Sensei…I can’t anymore…”

Now that the lid opened up, I can’t hold back anymore…Nobody but us was
here at school. Even if her phone rang, even if some guard was going around,
I don’t care anymore. Right in front of my eyes is the teacher who had
continued to tease and invite me ever since this spring. Now that it’s come to
this, I don’t feel like stopping.

“Maka-sensei…”

“Saigi-kun…Nn, kiss…”

159 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


Maka-sensei lowered her head, allowing us to kiss, with our tongues
entangling. We embraced each other again and again, kissed, and I focussed
on her chest again. Right now, Maka-sensei had mostly taken off her blouse,
as she only wore the black bra, black panties, and stockings. Everything that
is in the way, I wanted to remove it. So that I could look at her—my
girlfriend teacher’s body more and more.

“Saigi-kun…”

There, I came back to my senses. I could see tears building up in Maka-


sensei’s eyes. Was she embarrassed—Or even sacred? I thought about it for a
second, but realized just how wrong I had been. Why am I doing this to
Maka-sensei? Because her body is overwhelmingly alluring? Of course, that
is one aspect. But, more than anything, because I actually—

‘That’s why, if Saigi-kun were to say yes, I will resign as a teacher and atone
for that as long as I live.’

The words I heard such a long time ago suddenly replayed inside my head.
That’s right. How could I forget? If I were to fall in love with her—No, I had
known this all the time, my desires just got the better of me right now.

“Saigi-kun…?”

Maka-sensei seemed confused to see me suddenly stop like that.

“I’m sorry, Sensei…”

“What happened…?”

“I already lost everyone from SID…”

Even if I still have Kuu, and the former members as Miharu and Shiya-
chan…I still treasure all of them.

“I don’t want to lose anymore than that. Not Maka-sensei…”

“………” Maka-sensei didn’t respond with anything.

160 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


She came down from the desk, and embraced me. It was a different hug from
before, overflowing with kindness.

“It’s fine, Saigi-kun…Thank you…”

“This isn’t sympathy, okay. It’s not that I would feel bad if you had to quit as
a teacher. Just…” I buried my face in Maka-sensei’s comfortable chest.

Warmth, and a pleasant scent greeted me.

“Even if we don’t have much time left, as long as you stay with me…then I
want to treasure this time.”

“As your girlfriend teacher, for as long as time allows it, I will stay with
you.”

That’s right. In the end, she’s still a teacher. There will come a day where I
won’t be her student anymore. When that time comes, we will stop being
teacher and student. I might be able to change the future of everyone from
SID, but this one future is something that is written in stone.

If we don’t have much time anymore, then…I want to stay like this, as the
two of us. Even if Maka-sensei only gives me kindness. I want to be
embraced by her warmth.

Maka-sensei, I definitely can’t say it out loud, but I will accept this. Now that
I longed for you as I did before, I can only accept it…although I had known
this for a long time.

Maka-sensei, I love you.

Epilogue

Time passed quickly as we moved through the third school term. It’s the
same every year, but as soon as winter break is over, and the new year
begins, the end-of-year ceremony approaches. We do have the irregularity of
the field trip being part of our third term, but that doesn’t really change much.
As for many people, it’s the greatest event in your high school career, but…

“Saigi.”

When I was walking down the hallway, Tenka-san waved at me with a smile.
Woah, her smile is so cute, why doesn’t she smile more often…A month has
passed since that field trip, but I guess that it wasn’t just me dreaming things.

I’ll tell you about my episode with Tenka-san another time. There’s more
pressing matters right now. I put on my own shoes, and stepped out onto the
courtyard, towards the crowd of people.

Today was this year’s graduation ceremony. All the graduates were wearing
corsages on their chests, seen off by the sophomores. There’s a lot of
graduates who were receiving flower bouquets. A few of them were crying,
but not too many. To me, it makes perfect sense, as they’ll be heading off to
university now. The chances of meeting the graduates starting this April will
be much more slim than before. However…

“Wah, this one’s no-good.”

As for the person I was looking for, Jinsho Karen-senpai, she was surrounded
by students all over. I could only see her between the gaps of people, but
there was no way for me to reach her. There were even a few crying people
around her as well.

164 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


“It can’t be helped, she was everyone’s admired student council president
after all.”

“Wah, Maka-sensei!?”

Maka-sensei suddenly appeared next to me. She had her arms crossed, and
looked at the crowd with a wry smile.

“I gathered even more people during my graduation, you know. There were
even people from other schools outside the gate.”

“Don’t make this a battle, okay…But, you’re right. Everyone now knows that
Karen-senpai will be leaving for America after all.”

A few days after she told me on Christmas, everyone at school found out as
well. I guess that her popularity did a great deal in gathering this many
people, as well as the fact that they wouldn’t be able to see her again that
easily.

I could spot Enri’s flashy blonde hair in the crowd as well. At the previous
graduation ceremony, Enri read the farewell address, and Karen-senpai the
address in reply. It’s pretty crazy that two beauties consecutively became
student council presidents. If Miharu takes it next year, it’ll be three in a row.

“Saigi-kun, are you fine not talking to her?”

“I already said my farewell after all.”

She invited me to the party at the cloister the other day, where I already gave
my goodbyes. Of course, said party was managed by Sekiya-san, so it was
messy to say the least.

“I’ll let the others do the deeds now, and show my face if there’s some space
later.”

“I see. It seems like Jinsho-san plans to head over there right away, despite
the university only starting in September.”

“She seems to be focussing on learning English while preparing for her first

165 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


semester. She does get a scholarship, but I figure she’d probably look for a
part-time job as well.”

“Well, Jinsho-san is fairly decent at speaking and writing, so I have faith in


her.”

“It’s reassuring to hear you say that, Maka-sensei. I was a bit worried to be
honest.”

Either way, Karen-senpai is leaving far away to a place with no relatives.


Apparently, the protective Sister Eva offered to come with her, but Karen-
senpai politely denied that.

“If anything, I’m more worried about Amanashi-san. Ever since the end-of-
year exams ended, she hasn’t shown up at school.”

“Agreed…”

Of course, Nui got good results, although she didn’t manage to make it to the
top 50. I still think she did pretty well despite being this busy. I mean, I did
my best to teach her after all!

“Preeeeeeez! Give me your buttooooon! And your ribbon as well!”

“A-Amanashi Nui!? Hey, don’t rip the ribbon off me!”

““………””

Maka-sensei and I looked at each other. I don’t know from where, but in the
blink of an eye, Nui was suddenly clinging to Karen-senpai, trying to steal
her ribbon. Talk about the devil I guess…

166 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


167 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com
“T-Then, I’ll take Karen-oneechan’s skirt…”

“Are you telling me to go home wearing only my underwear!? Don’t


embarrass me in my final moments here!”

Or so I thought, but Kuu was with her. It seems like Nui took her along.
Well, they were both members of SID, so seeing her off made sense.

“So that young girl came as well…It’s a pain that she stayed behind.”

“A pain?”

That’s right. With the condition that Kuu wouldn’t run away from home
anymore, she didn’t move with her father. Although her father was wishing
to live with his daughter even after moving, he apparently decided to live on
for her sake. I feel like I stole Kuu from him…But, I am happy that she
stayed behind. I’ll spoil her lots in the future as well.

“Saigi-kun, you seem to be thinking about something quite disturbing.”

“N-Not at all. I was just thinking that Kuu shouldn’t learn too much from
Nui.”

“Well, I don’t think you need to worry about that.” Maka-sensei gave me a
sharp glare from the side.

A lot happened with her on the field trip, but we didn’t continue anything
from that Christmas night, okay?

“Still…graduation, huh. In barely one year, I’ll be sent off here as well.”

“As I said before, this one year passed terrifyingly quickly. Even more than
you might think. That’s why you have to use your time properly.”

“You actually something like a teacher would for once.”

“Stop saying things that destroy my character.”

Tsk, boring. Maka-sensei’s character as the Unobtainable Flower has been

168 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


breaking down quite a bit, but she’s still treated like a queen here.

“But, I don’t have to worry about your grades like with Amanashi-san, nor
fear that you might be leaving me like Jinsho-san.”

“Are you praising me, or dissing me?”

“That’s why, let me give you an exam of my own.”

“Exam…?”

Since the people around us were so noisy, nobody could hear what we were
talking about.

“This will be my final education — the ‘Graduation Exam’.”

“Graduation exam…?”

Since she was talking about education, I figured she was talking about our
special one. She’s not planning to continue what we did that night, right?
What is she planning?

“Ah, Maka-sensei, you were here! Please take a picture with me!”

“Ah, with us as well!”

“I want your button, Maka-sensei! And a strand of your hair!”

“H-Hey now, calm down. I’ll take a picture with you all—” Maka-sensei
complained, as she was pulled away by the students.

Following that, the photoshoot started. Well, I can totally understand where
they’re coming from. But, I wish they would have waited a bit longer. I
wanted to hear what she was talking about. Even though my third year was
only about to begin, it felt like it wouldn’t stay calm at all. And at the same
time, the never-honest Saigi-kun couldn’t help but think.

—I don’t want it to end.

Afterword

Hello everyone, this is Kagami Yuu. As of late, it’s just been me typing on
my keyboard, but I am also excited for the new game consoles to be released.
Then again, it’s not as if I am suffering through my writing process, really.

Leaving aside my private situation, we made it to volume 8 of ‘Boku no


Kanojo Sensei’. It is a wonderful thing for me that we managed to keep the
series going for this long, in this day and age.

This volume dealt with one of the most important events of a romcom series
—the Christmas event. I’m very glad that I could finally write the climax of
SID’s members. The series has been rather calm and vague at times, but this
volume we have some great progress. Then again, time properly progresses in
this series, so it was obvious we would eventually reach this point. Naturally,
the story will continue in the next volume, so I hope you look forward to it.

On a side note, I was planning on adding some more information about the
‘field trip’ of the series, and actually put some hints here and there—but I
actually didn’t think of much yet. All I know is that it will be the ‘Tenka-san
Arc’, so I hope you look forward to it. I myself am very much.

Monrin-sensei and Moshigani-sensei’s comicalization is still selling well, it’s


honestly amazing! We just reached volume 2 of the manuscript there, making
it the ‘Amanashi Nui Arc’. I’m sure that most of you read it already, but the
fanservice is quite the treat, so I hope you check it out! Actually, the third
volume of the comicalization releases together with this volume 8!

As for Oryou-sensei, I am terribly sorry to always ask so much of you


regarding the clothes and costumes! However, the designs look wonderful, so
I can’t help but be happy!

170 Goldenagato | mp4directs.com


To my editors, my sincere apologies that my manuscript ended up late! I
don’t even know how to make up for it!

A big thanks to everyone who helped me with the creation and distribution of
this novel, and my greatest gratitude to all my readers!

Fall 2020, Kagami Yuu
