Chapter 108 – Camp Training
No matter how many times I look at it, it’s 14th.
Very slightly above average.
I, who was staring blankly at the rank number with blinking eyes,
Phut! Phut!
Miyuki, with a bright smile on her face, came to her senses as she slapped her on the back.
“Matsuda-kun… You really worked hard…?”
I said, shaking my head while keeping my eyes on the poster.
“I know…”
“Are you embarrassed for not answering? Are you very surprised?”
I was literally very surprised.
To be honest, I thought I did well, but I never imagined that I would reach such a high rank.
I feel like I want to shout cheers. Is this why you study?
Somehow, it seems that Miyuki’s love for studying is understandable.
Some might suspect she cheated.
The guy who was last in the final exams last semester is in the middle this time around?
Anyone will doubt
But I was innocent. This score was the result of my sincere efforts.
And several professors who came in as supervisors knew that.
It’s because they saw me diligently solving the exam papers as they walked around the classroom.
When I take a math test, I still vividly remember the admirable look the supervisor made on the day when I was diligently solving problems on the test paper.
The evaluation that he is working hard is also circulating among professors, so even if someone stabs him, doubts will quickly dissipate.
“Surprised.”
The hallway in front of Class 1-A had been quiet since Miyuki checked my rank.
Everyone was looking at me with their eyes wide open, but most of them had goodwill in their eyes.
Since leaving the circle, he hasn’t had an accident, and even though he’s a face to face, it seems that the first thing he did by saying hello has exploded.
Some of the students who won my rank were jealous, but it didn’t matter.
They’re ugly, but there’s no need to worry about them.
Looking at Tetsuya, he had a complicated expression on his face.
It’s a face that’s got its pride crumpled…
Instead of ridiculing, I should quietly pass by.
Because ignoring is more annoying than teasing with all kinds of madness.
I looked down at Miyuki and said.
“Hey.”
“Yes?”
“Are you far above the 20th place you expected?”
“I am very excited right now. I didn’t expect to see you this well.”
It’s nice to receive compliments, but I want awards.
A one-time creampie ticket or a family invitation ticket… Why don’t they give you something like that?
I’ll have to fight back and get it later.
“Congratulations, Matsuda-kun.”
I tore the corners of her lips to the extent that I could see my teeth at Miyuki’s words that followed, and I entered the classroom while receiving congratulations from the other classmates.

There is one minor cliché in youth stories.
That is, when good things happen to the main character, the surroundings, such as the weather, become brighter.
It was like that even now.
The weather, which had been getting chilly, was warm like spring today, and the sky was clear without a single cloud.
It was a perfect day for sunbathing, so I lay down on the roof floor, not caring about getting my uniform dirty.
It’s childish, but what is it?
I entered a love comedy, and you have to be immersed in emotions like this to be the main character.
While basking in the warm sunlight, I raised my head when I heard the sound of the rooftop door opening.
Miyuki’s small face sticks out through the crack in the door.
“What are you doing…?”
Miyuki who was dumbfounded as I was lying down.
I beckoned her to come this way.
“Come and lie down too. Let’s see the sky together.”
Miyuki, who was staring at me as if she was examining an unfamiliar object, immediately let out a light smile on her face and closed the door on her rooftop.
Then he came over and sat down next to me.
She looked up at the sky once and said with a smile.
“Is there anything in the sky?”
“You see nothing there.”
“Why are you so emotional today? Is it because you like being in 14th place?”
“It was ranked 6th higher than you expected, okay then.”
Miyuki tidied up my bangs with a gentle smile at her voice, which was not quite … But somewhat recalled.
“I was so proud. I’m serious.”
“It deserves it.”
“I already have too much confidence…? I’m in big trouble if I do this. It’s only a matter of time to perish.”
“Are you going to say something stupid? Leave me alone for today.”
“Okay. But are you surprisingly talented at studying? How about aiming for the inside 10th place for the final exam?”
“Does that make sense?”
“Why? The difference is only 4th place.”
“No matter how much it is, the amount of knowledge you have is different from the top ranks.”
“That’s right. Actually, I don’t expect that far.”
She talks like a naughty person.
I clicked her tongue, lifted her skirt from the floor, and stuck her head into it.
Miyuki, horrified by my actions, shouted.
“W-what are you doing…!”
“I can’t see anything.”
“Of course I can’t see…! It’s like a pervert, really…!”
Wouldn’t you be more perverted if you don’t even think about avoiding it even though you’re doing this?
Swallowing the words, I blew the wind upwards.
Heheuk!”
Then Miyuki flinched and hit me hard enough to make a clicking sound.
Then he jumped up from his seat and bruised me.
“Stop acting weird…! What are you doing all the time…!?”
“It’s an expression of affection.”
“What are all these expressions of affection?”
“Looks like it could be, if it’s good. Oh lie down Don’t break the mood.”
“The atmosphere is Matsuda-kun right now…!”
Miyuki, who was trying to argue with her spirited voice, bit her mouth.
She rolled her eyes as if briefly recalling my eccentricities that I had shown her so far, and soon she straightened the hem of her skirt with a smile on her skin.
After she came over and lay down on her side, she pulled my arm and made her arm pillow.
“My arm hurts. Let go.”
“No. I don’t like having dirt on my head.”
“Has the side of your head already touched the floor?”
“I hate being asked in the back of the head. Anywhere else is fine.”
It’s ridiculous to see your tastes change depending on the situation.
Would it be embarrassing if I just honestly said I wanted an arm pillow?
I folded my arms supporting Miyuki’s head and gently rubbed the top of her head as if massaging it.
Then, an arc line was drawn around Miyuki’s mouth.
As if she was feeling better, she let out a long breath with a slight snort, and she clung to me.
“Should I spend this weekend alone?”
“If I could go back on Saturday, would I go?”
“I’m not whining, so don’t think about it. I did this because I was sorry… Are you going to call me more often instead?”
“I will do it whenever you send me a picture.”
“What picture? My Photos?”
“Uh.”
“… Matsuda-kun, by any chance, you’re not talking about a normal picture, but an erotic picture…?”
I understand you well now.
“Think carefully and send it.”
“I will never let you go. What kind of phone call are you making?”
“It is not a condition. Just recommended.”
“Looking at what you’re saying, it’s not solicitation, but coercion…?”
“I said it was a recommendation.”
“Look at this…! The way you talk is scary…!”
I turned her body towards Miyuki and put my hand on her abdomen.
Then he started stroking her ring finger slowly, very slowly, in a clockwise direction.
“Because it isn’t.”
Would you have been at peace with my touch?
Miyuki let out her long snort and turned her body to her side to face me, then tossed her pelvis and came closer.
The act of hugging.
These days, Miyuki’s aegyo is getting more and more, and it feels like her libido has risen, and it’s very nice to see.

In the locker room of the kendo club.
Seeing Tetsuya slowly changing into his uniform, I wrinkled my brow.
You’ve been dead all day, are you so mad that you beat me?
Or is Miyuki upset that she didn’t comment much on her own grades today?
Whatever it was, it was very annoying, so I patted Tetsuya without taking off her clothes.
“Why are you so depressed today? Are you sick again?”
“No… That’s not…”
“Then what is it?”
“It’s just that I’m not feeling well.”
Unmeuted baby … Uh … Live like that for a lifetime.
Anyway, Tetsuya’s body bulked up a little.
Feeling of growing in size.
You must be exercising without realizing it, but work hard.
I’ll cheer you on. So please show some competitive spirit.
Now I’m starting to get a bit frustrated.
“Go home and buy something to relieve fatigue. I go out first.”
“Ah, yes. Thank you for your concern, Matsuda.”
I’m not worried, it’s Mac. Fuck you.
It’s something you often do.
I waved my hands roughly and left the room, and Chinami, who was humming her song, greeted me.
“Brother! Did the 1st graders also have a poster with a ranking on the bulletin board?”
It is a fresh voice with high tension.
It tickles my ears.
I tightened the chest strap of the uniform I had changed into and approached Chinami, and answered.
“Looked good. It’s 14th.”
“Yes? 14th? Didn’t your junior say that you couldn’t study?”
“Originally it was, but I guess not anymore.”
“What are those vague words? Sounds bragging… Is that right?”
“Could that be? How are your grades, Master?”
At those words, an eerie laugh escaped from Chinami’s lips.
“Mhuhuhu… I did better than last semester. I ended up passing a classmate who always couldn’t win. When I tried to score, I was very nervous because it was very short, but it turned out the same.”
Chinami raises her nose with a proud expression.
She looks like she’s happy to drop a competitor.
It feels good to win a mud fight.
I asked, shaking my head as if I understood her feelings.
“Is it rude to ask how many places you have placed?”
“No. It’s all in the hallway anyway, so anyone can see it. For the first time since I entered Yevoni Academy, I got second place.”
“…. Yes?”
“Second seat.”
Did I just hear you right?
Chinami… Second seat?
Did I say the wrong seat in the back…?
I feel like I’m going to have a brain death for a while when I can’t even imagine at all.
“Master. Is it correct to say second place…?”
Hehe… You have an incredible face. Right. It’s second place.”
This is an unexpected twist as much as my ranking.
Our Chinami… You’re much smarter than Lenka.
I had a preconceived notion. Sorry.
I want to apologize for your favorite kongdak kongdak massage.
By the way, I am good at studying to the point of being second in line, but why are people so naive…
Of course, not all smart people are wise, but… It’s a bit absurd.
I woke up from my dazed mind with a blink of an eye and said with a smile on my face.
“Congratulations.”
“Hmmmm…! Thank you. My juniors also placed 14th… You did a lot of hard work. It seems like only yesterday that I memorized math formulas while working as a manager, and you show the results. I think juniors are really great.”
“Thank you. It’s a commemorative day, so shall we clean up later and go eat ice cream?”
“Oh…! Like…! By the way, did you pack all the preparations for the camp training?”
“I finished everything yesterday.”
“You did very well…!”
Chinami claps her hands like a daycare teacher praising a child.
It sounds like you are really looking forward to this camp training.
Like me.
