An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being

Episode 147: Rating (Third Party Perspective)

"Yes!! There is one reason we've gathered today!! It's about Onii-chan!!"

 It is a room in a certain house. Four beautiful girls are gathered there.

 Satou Nanami starts talking first. She lives in this house. She is the daughter of Satou Hitomi and the younger sister of Satou Fuhito.

 Katsuragi Alexia is next. Satou Fuhito's classmate and first party member. Fuhito's restrictor. If you count it, the recipient of each other's first kiss.

 The third person is Shimotsuki Amane. A classmate one year older who joined the Dungeon Exploration Club shortly after school started. A person who applied to be one of Fuhito's party members and was accepted by Alexia.

 And finally, Kurosaki Rei. A former Union employee who registered Fuhito as an explorer, and an S-rank explorer. A person who volunteered to lead the party and became a party member out of concern for Fuhito and Nanami.

 A room in a certain house with the above four people. They are gathered in Satou Nanami's new room. Everyone changed into their pajamas after taking a bath. All of them have a Space Expansion Bag and they always carry something like that.

"What's wrong with Fuhito-kun?"

"Yes, Acchan, good question."

"Acchan!?"

 Amane is confused when she is called by a nickname that she doesn't understand by Nanami, who is meeting her for the first time.

"I'll have the four of us confess all our feelings for Onii-chan!!"

"Hmm."

"Huh!?"

"Eh!?"

 However, the words she continued with while ignoring the confusion, had enough power at least to surprise Amane and Rei.

"Why do I have to talk to Nanami-chan about that!!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah!!"

 Amane and Rei retort at Nanami's declaration.

"That's because I'm Onii-chan's Imouto!! I decide who Onii-chan should go out with!! By the way, If I ask Onii-chan to kick someone out of the party, Onii-chan will definitely remove that person. If you disobey, it won't be good for you, will it?"

 Nanami calmly threatens the two and tries to silence them.

"Eehh ~ !! That's horrible."

"That's tyranny!!"

"It's not tyrannical or horrible!! Please speak with your true feelings. Now if only you do that, I won't say such things to Onii-chan. Don't worry. I won't tell Onii-chan about everyone's feelings."

 The two boo in response to the threat, but Nanami doesn't listen.

"Haa ... It can't be helped."

"Let's give up. We have no chance of winning."

 The two decide to give up and speak their minds.

"Let's start with Shia-oneechan, who I have known the longest."

"Hmm. I'm very grateful. Fu-kun saved my life and made me stronger. But when I see him with other people, it makes me feel 'zawa zawa' here."

 Alexia speaks frankly while pressing her chest. There is no ostentatiousness, and there is an honest feeling.

 Nanami had expected it, but the other two have expressions of surprise on their faces.

"Yes, thank you for your long message, Onee-chan. By the way, are other people limited to women?"

"Hmm, maybe so."

 Alexia agrees with Nanami's question.

 Come to think of it, seeing Fuhito with Takaaki Sakura doesn't make her heart flutter at all. However, when she sees Amane and Rei next to him, she remembers that her chest tightened and she felt a tingling sensation.

"I see, I see!! Onee-chan, you're in love with him!!"

"Is that so?"

 Even when Nanami presents the word love, Alexia doesn't really understand it.

"I didn't expect you to be so ignorant. That's right, Onee-chan is in love with my Onii-chan."

"Oh, I see."

"That's right?"

"This is love. I learned it for the first time."

 When Alexia is pointed out that this feeling is love, she became aware of it for the first time.

"Now I understand that Shia-oneechan loves Onii-chan."

 After understanding Shia's feelings, Nanami changes her target to Amane.

"Eh? M, me?"

"Yes. Please hurry up."

 Although she knew it, Amane gets a little nervous when she is asked to talk about it.

"I don't particularly think anything of him ... I like that fact that he doesn't look at my breasts all the time."

 Encouraged by Nanami, Amane turns away and speaks. It seems to Nanami that other emotions are hidden there.

"Is that the truth?"

"Ugh."

 When Nanami asks back, Amane is at a loss for words.

 It's like saying that those words aren't everything.

"I'll ask again. Is that the truth?"

"Ugh. Actually, I thought he was cool ever since he defended me from the insect monster Stampede!!"

 Hearing it again, Amane unintentionally confesses.

"Hmm. Honesty is fine!!"

"Ugh. It's embarrassing ..."

 Nanami nods in satisfaction when she hears those words.

"Then, lastly, Rei-san. What do you think of Onii-chan?"

"Look, I don't have many points of contact like everyone else ... so I don't have anything particular to think about him."

 Rei, who was finally pointed at the conclusion of the story, also averts her eyes and answers while playing with her hair, just like Amane.

 There is a sense of turmoil.

"Hmm. Is that the truth?"

"Yes, probably."

 When asked by Nanami, Rei answers briefly while smoothing it over.

"Should I tell my brother."

"Oh!! Wait!! I'll confess!! I will confess!!"

"Yes. Then, please."

 Nanami senses the scent of lies and threatens her, and Rei easily surrenders.

"I can't really say it because I have a confidentiality obligation, but I was asked to investigate Fuhito-kun before."

"Hmm. And?"

 Nanami is surprised at what she hears for the first time, but tries not to let it show as she encourages Rei to talk.

"I did some research, but my power didn't work at all. This S-rank me. That's why I was interested in him."

"I see, I see."

 Rei talks about the time when she was too shocked. Rei honestly praises that Fuhito was like that.

"So, when he came to the Union before, he was polite, and I thought he was a good boy, so earlier, when he told me that I was beautiful, I was a little surprised and happy at the same time. It's embarrassing even though I'm older than him."

 Rei looks down as though she was embarrassed by what she was saying.

"I see. I understand. Thank you very much. Everyone answered correctly, so I will accept your participation in the party!!"

""Phew ~ ...""

 Nanami, who was convinced by everyone's words, allowed the three of them to continue being in the party. Amane and Rei let out a sigh of relief.

"Since Shia-oneechan has completely fallen, there is a good chance that the other two will join Shia-oneechan's ranks in the future."

"Hmm."

"Y, yes."

"Y, yeah."

 Nanami sums up the story, Shia nods without incident, while the other two nod with an expression that says that they have no choice but to admit it, even though they don't want to admit it.

"From my point of view, I think that the three of you are qualified to be next to Onii-chan in terms of appearance, personality, and ability. As for me, if it's the three of you, I can leave my Onii-chan to any of you. But, don't forget that he's my Onii-chan, okay?"

"Hmm."

"Understood."

"I understand."

 When Nanami smiles and says that, the three nod solemnly.

 It was at that moment when the rating of Fuhito's harem was made.

"Haakkushon!! Wh, what? Is someone talking about me?"

 Meanwhile, Fuhito was sneezing in the bath at that time.
