Chapter 27: – June 20 (Saturday): Kaedezaka's Request
Right now, I was seated across from Kaedezaka at a diner.
A friend of hers called, Yuika would be back soon.
This was a great opportunity.
I might as well ask her for help.
“Kaedezaka, listen to me. This presentation has a different meaning than the usual ones.”
“What's the difference?”
“You saw the girl I was with the other day.”
“Yeah, she was cute. I like her.”
“That's good to hear… I'm glad to hear that. Her name is Otozui, and her evaluation will be determined by the outcome of this presentation.”
Kaedezaka replied coldly without a change to her expression.
“That's it? That doesn't really concern me.”
“If she fails, she'll be forced to do menial tasks all the time and forced to quit. But if she succeeds, she'll be given a chance to do her job. I hope you understand.”
Perhaps the words “forced into quitting” had an effect on Kaedezaka, who refused to make eye contact with me earlier. Her gaze landed on me now.
“That's easy to say. If you stay out of Yuika's life, I won't interfere with your presentation. What do you think?”
It was a question that put Yuuka and Otozui on the balance scale.
Normally, I should have taken action for Otozui without hesitation.
However, the idea that this was not the right thing to do clearly emerged in my mind.
Kaedezaka looked at me in silence and gave me a cold stare.
“Why do you keep refusing to leave Yuika? You don't have any ulterior motives, do you?”
'… No reason. But I don't want to cut ties with people this way.”
“There's no logic in your thinking. It's a characteristic of cynical people.”
…. Yes. Why do I refuse Kaedezaka's request?
I've never been able to find the answer.
But even though we've only known each other a short time, I feel something for Yuika.
I wonder what I feel about … Yuika. …
“Oh, yes!”
Suddenly, Kaedezaka clasped her hands together and gave a big smile.
I had a bad feeling about her smile.
“What is it?”
“I've got an idea! You want to hear it? You're gonna want to hear this!”
“I don't want to hear it.”
“I'll say it then.”
“I don't want to hear it, okay?”
She twirled her left index finger and stopped it in front of her lips.
“Maybe Sasamiysan can seduce me.”
“…What?”
I felt as if time had stopped.
That was how sudden Kaedezaka's statement was.
“What are you talking about, Kaedezaka? Are you crazy?”
Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks
“I'm often told I'm beautiful.”
“I'm worried about what's in your head. Why do I have to hit on you? It makes no sense.”
But Kaedezaka didn't stop.
“If Sasamiysan were my lover, I would want to make the presentation a success for the one I love. That's the power of love. It's wonderful.”
“Seducing people is … you know … That's harder than going through a presentation.”
In response to my objections, Kaedezaka gave me a goddess smile that contained a hint of darkness.
“Oh, no, not at all. My type of man is one who will do whatever I tell him to do. If you give me a lot of what I want, I might fall in love with you.”
I couldn't figure out what she meant by that.
I wondered if there was something she wanted me to do for her.
If helping Kaedezaka meant she wouldn't interfere with the presentation, that would be a good solution.
Let's listen to her for a while.
“… What are you going to ask for, by the way?”
“Well, you know. For starters, I'd like you to run as fast as you can down the country road at night while naked and laughing creepily at passing cars.”
She's an idiot.
“Let's do it.”
“Sasamiysan, go!”
“I won't do it.”
Before that, who could do such a thing?
You're not human anymore.
Ah! Shit! I was too foolish to think that there was even the slightest chance of a decent request.
No, you knew that …
I was a fool for trying to reach out for the slightest hope.
Why do adults forget that ideals did not exist in reality?
I sank deeper into the chair and rested my weight on the back.
My shoulders felt strangely sluggish, probably due to mental fatigue.
Kaedezaka chuckled at my exhausted state.
The beautiful woman who was loosening her lips in a bewitching way was giving off the perfect 'bad girl' vibe. .
It seemed that she liked to annoy me to no end.
If only she had a decent personality, she would be an undeniable beauty, but what a waste.
At this point, Yuika came back.
“I'm sorry for the delay. …Did something happen?”
“We were just having a little chat.”
“Ah Onii-San, you can't hit on Kaedezaksan just because she's a college girl.”
“No, I would never do that.”
Hitting on this girl meant running at full speed down the national highway at night while naked. I wouldn't do it even if it killed me.
“I don't know. You seem to have a weakness for beautiful women. I think he might get out of control and suddenly start kabedonning.”
“I've only ever been …”
