Sakayanagi's Hat! 6k! (Continued)

"Sniff sniff—" He noticed that after Karuizawa was allowed to sit down, she seemed to be curiously sniffing the air.

"..." Hachiman. "Ryuen and the others have already been here."

"Oh, I was just saying I smelled something that wasn't very pleasant," Karuizawa said.

Forehead.

Then it must be something like Ryuen or Albert.

After all, Hachiman had already taken a shower. He smells nice now.

Hachiman thought to himself.

It would be really embarrassing if a girl could smell your sweat.

"..." Hachiman.

It seemed like at that moment I understood why my Ichika Amasawa, was using the shower in his room.

So, considering that I had been working all day this morning and wanted to "create a surprise," I would definitely feel ashamed and indignant if people smelled the sweat on my body.

Hey, hey, hey.

I feel like I'm becoming more wavering because of Ichika's confession to me, and that won't do.

Therefore Hachiman should correct his attitude.

"Actually, Ichika Amasawa was in Class A, First Year, is also here," Hachiman explained.

Each student has a tablet.

Using a tablet allows you to view other students' information at any time.

Hachiman noticed that Megumi had a tablet in her shirt pocket.

But.

Hui, however, seemed to have no need for a tablet at all.

"Isn't it that girl with purple twin tails, who looks really sexy, and who likes to pester and bully Kushida?" Karuizawa said.

Hey, hey, hey.

That's a bit of an overstatement. What do you mean by "very slutty"?

"Do you have hostility towards her?" Hachiman asked.

"No," Hui said. "But it seems she did stay with me for two days."

I've been with you for two days?

Hachiman had never heard of this claim before.

So he sat down and sat opposite Karuizawa.

"When did it start?" Hachiman asked.

"It was probably a few days after the new students started school," Hui said. "She even greeted me once."

"But I felt a little uncomfortable, as if she could see right through me."

Is that so?

It's worth noting that even Kushida, a master of acting and observation, couldn't detect Karuizawa's disguise as Karuizawa (a type of female stunner), yet Amaza did.

What Hachiman thought of was that Ichika Amasawa's background was that of the White Room, and although she had always wanted to gain her own freedom, she had been working hard for it.

However, when she first received the mission to drop out of Kiyotaka Ayanokoji, Ayanokoji didn't have the sponsorship of Tsukishiro like Yagami. So, in order to complete the mission, she needed to do what Yagami did: contact Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's classmates.

She initially chose Kushida, not Karuizawa.

In other words, she actually saw through Karuizawa's disguise from the beginning, which is why she chose Kushida later.

See it this way.

Ichika Amasawa is definitely someone to look forward to.

This person has a lot of potential.

Hachiman no longer doubts that the other party can support him.

"Didn't you tell me back then?" Although he was thinking about his own important life event, Hachiman hadn't forgotten that Karuizawa was still here, so he said this.

"I don't think that's necessary." But Karuizawa looked at him strangely, "Because you've already taken action, haven't you? You went to approach this junior yourself."

"So I thought you'd discovered that, and then you went to approach this junior yourself, maybe even teamed up with her," Karuizawa said. "So I thought you'd won her over. And afterwards, she really didn't follow me anymore."

Is that so?

Hachiman discovers that not only is he easily swayed, but Karuizawa is also prone to overthinking.

"Ahem..." After considering it for a moment.

"Actually, her following you at that time was her mission. She probably wanted to drop out of Kiyotaka Ayanokoji and made arrangements, such as first obtaining information about Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's classmates. Those with dark histories who couldn't be seen in public were the easiest to control."

"Kiyotaka Ayanokoji dropped out of school?" Karuizawa blinked softly.

Hachiman then told her that Kiyotaka Ayanokoji was actually overpowered and had escaped, and that Ichika Amasawa was one of the people from the same facility who was responsible for Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's expulsion.

The reason I told her all this was partly because Karuizawa's personality meant she wouldn't speak carelessly, and partly because she genuinely misunderstood Ichika Amasawa.

How could you use such excessive language to describe the other person?

So let's give her some breathing space.

To avoid the relationship becoming irreconcilable.

After all.

Compared to Horikita, Kushida, Karuizawa, Karuizawa is the Hachiman uses most easily.

So there's a slight bias.

"I see..."

"Isn't that a lot of trouble?" Karuizawa said.

Really.

After talking about Ichika Amasawa's background, Karuizawa's hostility towards her disappeared.

"She's alright. She's free now. So she's no longer affiliated with that organization and can live as herself," Hachiman said.

This is what it means that Ichika Amasawa, has gained her freedom.

But Karuizawa gently shook her head.

"No, what I mean is, in that case, wouldn't you only have the option of marrying her in the future?"

"You signed a marriage agreement with Kushida ... and then with Ichinose, right? One of them will be responsible for marrying you after graduation and supporting you, and you'll need to pay them 20 million yen for their Class Advancement," Karuizawa said. "But when you graduate, you can choose to lend them the money or choose to marry them. The decision is yours. But this Ichika Amasawa doesn't want your money."

"And you and she made a promise to get married after graduation."

"An agreement is an agreement, and neither party can go back on their word."

"That's exactly what happens when...she wants to marry you, and you can't object," Karuizawa said.

Actually, every time Karuizawa thinks about or talks about this, he wants to complain.

Because Hachiman hasn't changed at all since he enrolled. Even though he looks quite mature now, and is even the Vice President of the Student Council, he hasn't changed his original intentions.

He even included younger female students in his marriage plans.

But.

Karuizawa isn't usually very smart, but this time, she made Hachiman think for a moment.

Because.

That makes sense.

Hachiman then realized that he seemed to be in a situation where he would have to marry his junior after graduation.

No option can be selected.

Because this is an agreement, it doesn't even have any flexibility.

The only possibility is that he could choose not to marry her if she didn't like him.

"..." Hachiman.

"So, you actually like girls younger than you, right?" Karuizawa said.

"..." Hachiman. "I don't dislike girls younger than me..."

"But--"

Hachiman realized that if things continued this way, it seemed he had really decided that his marriage partner would be Ichika Amasawa.

"Actually, I also encountered Amaza two or three times during the Uninhabited Island Exam," Karuizawa continued.

"She was clearly a girl with brown hair who looked a bit like a tea girl, but her stamina seemed to have not diminished at all."

"Don't you think it's terrifying?" Karuizawa said. "With that kind of energy, you'll be completely drained."

Forehead.

Karuizawa's choice of words today is quite outrageous.

But.

The language may be crude, but the reasoning is profound.

And this can indeed be unsettling.

After all.

He already knew that White Room student had exceptional physical strength and endurance. An ordinary person definitely couldn't withstand it.

And yet I am just an ordinary person.

"..." Hachiman.

"..." Hachiman Hikigaya.

He initially thought Karuizawa wanted to talk to him about something, but after entering the room, Karuizawa ended up discussing their love affairs.

"However, it's not like there's absolutely no way." Karuizawa continued. "If you only have no choice because of the agreement with Ichika Amasawa, you can create another agreement and then you'll have a choice again."

In other words...

Her suggestion was to have him sign an agreement with another person, so that if both women chose to marry him, he would also have no right to refuse. However, this would create a conflict between the two agreements.

So Hachiman got another chance to choose.

But.

"Let's forget about it," Hachiman said. "After all, I can't drag someone else down with me because of my own problems. It wouldn't be fair to Ichika Amasawa and that person."

"Actually, there are some people who are willing to be dragged into this," Karuizawa said softly.

"Um?"

"There's nothing there." Karuizawa slightly turned his gaze to the side.

Hachiman then asked, "So, what happened that led you here today?"

"Um."

Karuizawa nodded, then remembered the important matter.

So, what's the important matter?

I've got it.

Karuizawa quickly explained, "Actually, it was Kōenji who was announcing to the class that everyone would have to give him 8 million points over the next two months. After that, he wouldn't have to give them the points he earned as rewards anymore. Of the class's points, he currently has 225 points, which will amount to about 16 million by graduation."

"But he only needs 8 million now, and his classmates still need to chip in to give it to him."

"Matsushita said that this method is like cashing out stocks and leaving, so some students in the class think that Kōenji wants to leave the class."

I see.

Hachiman this, because Kōenji came to find him himself.

"I understand," Hachiman said. "And if Kōenji leaves the class, things will get even worse for your class."
