Chapter 247 – 16.1 Harem Special Act
Is reality more bizarre than fiction?
Things that would be criticized for being nonsensical if they came out of a novel, in reality, unexpectedly happen as if they were natural.
That’s what I’m hearing now too.
“Yes? A special harem law?”
I came to the student president’s office to play and asked again while clearing my ears.
Chairman Mizuki crossed his arms and glared at me with a sly look.
“The Harem Special Act is an alias. The official name is ‘Special Act on Rune Holder Training’.”
“Uh~. It’s hard to call it, so we just call it the Harem Special Act.”
“Oh dear. That’s what the naysayers call it.”
Special Act on Training Rune Holders.
It is literally a special law to increase the number of rune holders.
It included various institutional reforms to increase the dismal birth rate of rune holders, and even allowed partial bigamy to resolve the gender imbalance.
That’s why it’s called the ‘Harem Special Act’.
It is said that the strategy of the opposing camp is to highlight bigamy, which is a particularly provocative part among the various systems in the special law.
Well, polygamy in this day and age. In the eyes of the general public, it may seem like a bad law.
“How are you? They tell you to call it whatever you want to call it.”
“Yes! You’re mad! A person made a good law with the best of his mind, but said that it was wrong unconditionally because it did not benefit him!”
“The fault lies with the previous generation for not taking the right measures to get to this point. Or is there another way now? If rune holders decrease anyway, the damage will be returned to them. Like stupid people.”
Aka rune holder haters.
They claim that rune holders receive too many benefits.
They provide a place to live in Tokyo for free, tuition is free, convenience facilities are free, support is provided if you have a lot of children, and this and that are all free. If you have a lot of children.
They claim that such benefits are discriminated against by taxpayers’ taxes.
I can guarantee that if Japan perishes tomorrow, it will be because of those people.
“There are times when Knives gets unexpectedly hot, right?”
For some reason, President Mizuki’s eyes widened.
Did I say anything strange?
“Me?”
“Yes. I thought you wouldn’t be interested in that kind of thing.”
“Hmm. I have a lot going on these days.”
To be honest, I was a bit annoyed.
To the point where I seriously thought about joining the strike that Muramasa was planning.
This rotten world must be changed from the root.
Then what the hell am I supposed to do?
I want to do something, but these days I can’t figure out what to do.
“If you think about it for a bit, you will know who this benefit is for.”
“Really. People only think of three or four acorns in their hands. You’re against planting acorn trees to get more acorns. It’s stupid.”
Chairman Mizuki also seems to have accumulated a lot.
It’s the first time I’ve seen personal grievances expressed like this.
“Anyway, the Harem Special Law. Is that really going to pass?”
“It’s a special law for training rune holders.”
“Whatever.”
I’ve heard similar stories from classmates before. But at the time, I thought it was just a rumor that someone spread for fun.
However, the story is different if it comes from Chairman Mizuki’s mouth.
The chairman’s father is the backbone of power in this country. It was not a story that could be skipped over.
“Sure. In the meantime, I’ve been thinking about it because the opposition public opinion is formidable even within the party, but coming up on the water like this must mean that my father is confident as well. It was rewarding to peck my father every morning.”
Chairman Mizuki raises his nose as if it were his own credit.
“Doesn’t that mean that I was forced to come up with a bill that I couldn’t overcome because of my daughter’s annoyance…”
“Hehe. Anyway, you just have to pass. If you pass, then… Whoops…”
The president’s eyes looking at me are somehow sinister.
“Ugh… Chills suddenly?”
“Whoops…”
Is the president plotting something cute?
Surely you’re not trying to say something like, ‘I’ll let you have a harem, so make me your wife!’
… No. If it’s President Mizuki, that’s enough.
Because the president doesn’t seem to really love me as a member of the opposite sex. He certainly doesn’t have any monopoly desires.
Perhaps the president’s feelings toward me are closer to friendship or affection. Like the eyes looking at Shinoshino.
If I were the chairman, I think he would choose me with the feeling of ‘I’d rather marry another man!’.
Mmm. Can I like this?
If you investigate with the soul rune, you can find out in one shot, but… These days, I’m training to live without using runes, so I have to be patient.
Just in case one day I fight an opponent whose runes don’t work. Spoilers are no fun.
Just then, the door to the president’s office burst open.
How dare you open the door of the president’s office like this?
There was only one person in this academy who could do that.
“Looks like you’re having an interesting conversation.”
“… Chairman.”
Stand up from your seat and greet the president.
Rune Academy’s president, Ms. Ryoko Mizuki.
She is the wife of the ruling party’s president, Rep. Ichiro Mizuki, and the mother of student council president Kyoko Mizuki.
She followed the chairman’s footsteps into Shino Shinodo’s room.
The chairman of the board naturally sits in the senior seat.
I made a fuss and greeted the chairman again.
“Aigoo, Chairman. You are still beautiful today.”
“No need for flattery, Knives Windsor.”
My desperate efforts to liven up the frozen atmosphere were gently let go by the chairman.
Ah. Will her mother and daughter’s ice field fight begin again?
Want to go home.
“Chairman. Could it be that you installed a wiretapping device in the student council president’s office?”
The tone of the chairman was 180 degrees different from when he was talking to me.
It is as if each word is pricked with a needle.
“Well. As the president of the academy, I only think about listening to all places within the academy.”
“That is a crime. Chairman.”
“What? Do you have any proof that I did something?”
The chairman stares at the chairman without a word.
The temperature in the room seemed to drop gradually.
“Student president. Please refrain from rash remarks. It was as if he had influenced the governor’s policy. That kind of thing might hold you back later.”
“Knives is my sweetheart. I don’t think that such a thing would be possible for a small person who catches the pod even with a lover.”
“Lover? You don’t remember allowing a date, do you?”
“Unlike my mother, I can decide for myself who I love.”
The feeling of a horse’s blade swaying in the room.
I hid behind Shinoshino, the most easygoing person in this room.
“Oh oh. Shinoshino. Help me.”
“Shut up.”
“I have to get out of here.”
“Knives Windsor. Wait.”
Ryoko Mizuki, the chairman of the board, calls me to run away.
Honestly, you don’t need me here, do you? Just let it go please
Contrary to my thoughts, the chairman asked me a very difficult question.
“Knives Windsor. How many women have you slept with so far?”
“Eh?!”
Did you call me to ask about that?
“No matter how much the chairman is, that’s not it! I exercise my right to remain silent! Against sexual harassment!”
“Okay. At least 10 people Is the name Kyoko Mizuki on that list?”
“To…”
How did you know
No, did I just skip this?
“Looks like none. Then what about Shinozaki Shinobu?”
Startle.
Shinoshino’s attitude was obvious to anyone.
She was practically advertising it.
“Okay. I did it with Shinozaki Shinobu, but not with Mizuki Kyoko. Is it okay to look at it that way?”
The chairman turned to the chairman with a relaxed expression.
“Mizuki Kyoko, student council president. Is she still going to claim that she is Naives Windsor’s lover?”
The chairman bit his lip and lowered his head.
Her narrow shoulders trembled slightly.
What kind of brutal verbal violence is this?
Can this really be called a mother-daughter conversation?
“Chairman. You do too much.”
“What? Ah. I apologize for revealing a personal relationship. Knives Windsor.”
“It’s not me… No, that’s enough.”
It would be useless to say anyway.
Chet. If she wasn’t just a married woman, I would have spanked her ass.
Unfortunately, I’ll have to hit Shinoshino’s butt later.
“Mizuki Kyoko, student council president. It is not permitted to associate with such promiscuous students. Until dirt gets in my eyes. Do you understand?”
“Such a promiscuous student… Well, it’s true that it’s promiscuous.”
I also decided to just give up.
If you come now and pretend you’re not, no one will be fooled.
“Student president. Be mindful of what you say in advance. Don’t show a gap even for a second. That gap will become your weakness.”
After destroying the atmosphere in the room like a storm, the president left the student council president’s office in a flash.
What is that person here for? To nag?
“Chairman.”
The chairman still kept his head down even after the chairman left.
My conscience stung for some reason.
“Chairman. Don’t bother too much. It’s funny that I even say this, but…”
“Knives!”
The chairman suddenly raised his head.
I wasn’t expecting much of an answer.
“Yes?”
“Knives! Do it with me! Right Now!”
Those eyes were shining brightly.
Yes? Do? What?
