I, a Lonely Otaku Was Surrounded by Some of the Most Beautiful Girls on Campus and Was Called Riajuu

(**Nagisa’s POV**)

“Isn’t that guy going to die…?”

“No, I don’t think he’s going to go that far… I wonder what Byodoin-san is up to…?”

Now that Camilla-chan and I are back home from Okayama, we’ve been watching Kanzaki-kun being run all morning in Byodoin-san’s big dome-like building.

It’s already seven o’clock in the morning, so if we take out the time for breakfast and lunch, it’s been about ten hours.

And yet, Kanzaki-kun kept running without a single complaint, even though he was getting dizzy.

If it were me, I would have kept complaining.

I wonder how his relationship with Byodoin-san is going?

“How is Kai doing…?”

As we were watching Kanzaki-kun anxiously, Byodoin-san, who had been out of the room, returned.

“Ah, Onee-sama! Sakura-chan’s Onii-chan, he’s still running! If he keeps going like this, he’s going to collapse!”

Camilla-chan said impatiently to Byodoin-san, and Byodoin-san looked at Kanzaki-kun.

She continued to look at Kanzaki-kun for a few moments and then spoke to the maid who was watching her.

“Make him stop now… Give him a bath… feed him… and then call him… to Alice’s room…”

“Understood.”

The maid replied to Byodoin-san’s instructions and headed straight for Kanzaki-kun.

“Byodoin-san.”

“What…?”

I called out to Alice-san, who was about to leave the room again.

“Is this what you call a severe punishment? It may be hard, but I don’t think it should be too much. His body can’t take it.”

Worried about Kanzaki-kun’s health, I tried to talk to Byodoin-san not to push him any further, but she shook her head.

Then her expression changed from languid to dignified.

Yesterday, Byodoin-san, like Kanzaki-kun, had fallen asleep after returning home.

Camilla-chan told me that when she has this dignified expression on her face, she is straining herself and later falls asleep due to fatigue.

Because of this, Byodoin-san doesn’t like to wear this expression, but when she does, it’s when she has something important to say.

So I straightened up my appearance.

“This punishment is necessary for Kai.”

“Necessary?”

“Yes. As you can see from Kai’s behavior yesterday, he is the one who is most concerned about the violent incident. That’s why I’m going to punish him severely.”

“How can that be an excuse?”

“Doesn’t it make you feel better to be punished so severely? It makes you feel like you’re making amends. That’s one reason I keep Kai running in the morning.”

“One? Then you have another reason?”

I was curious about the way Byodoin-san said that, so I asked her about it.

Then Byodoin-san’s gaze turned to Kanzaki-kun, who had now stopped running and was being taken away by the maid.

“What do you think of Kai now?”

“What I think… He’s so dizzy, he can barely walk, is that it?”

“Does he look like he can think or do anything?”

“I don’t think he can… Is that what you’re trying to tell me?”

If she went to the trouble of bringing it up, then it must be relevant.

I’ve been watching her for a few days now, and I know she’s not the type to waste time talking, so I don’t think she’d say something irrelevant.

“You’re very perceptive. Yeah, you’re right. It’s important not to give Kai some time to think. Otherwise, he’ll just blame himself for what happened in that incident.”

“I see. That might be a good idea… But if he collapses, it’s not good for him, is it?”

“Don’t worry, I know Kai’s physical limits when I see it.”

You can tell by looking…

Just who the hell is this kid?

As I looked at Byodoin-san, Camilla-chan opened her mouth.

“By the way, where did Sakura-chan go? Can I talk to her?”

“The little angel is practicing English conversation right now.”

“English conversation…? Why is she doing that?”

I couldn’t understand why she would come here to practice English conversation, so I asked Byodoin-san.

When I asked, Byodoin-san stared at me.

Byodoin-san looked at Camilla-chan for a moment and then looked back at me.

“Would you like to go to America?”

“America? I’d love to, but…”

“Okay.”

Byodoin-san smiled when I casually mentioned that I would like to go to America.　

I wonder… I feel like I’ve just answered something I shouldn’t have.

“W-Wait for a moment! What are you getting at?”

“Alice and her friends are going to America in a few days. I’ve decided to ask you to come with us.”

“…Huh!? Eh, Why!?”

“Because you want to go, right?”

“No, I mean, I’d like to go at least once if I could, but it’s too sudden.”

“Well, it’s clearly a sudden decision. The reason I’m going to America is because there’s a guy in America right now that I want Kai to meet.”

“The guy you want him to meet… Oh, no, that’s not it. Why me too!?”

“It’s summer vacation, so I’m going to take Nekomimi-bomb and the little angel with me. I’m sure Nekomimi-bomb will be more than happy to have the Shirousagi kid along for the ride, right?” [TLN: Starting from this chapter, I’m also calling Cat-eared bomb the Nekomimi-bomb now.]

Byodoin-san looked at Camilla-chan, and Camilla-chan looked up at me happily.

Then she nodded with a smile.

“Yes, I want Nagisa-Onee-sama to come with me!”

Camilla-chan is looking up at me with a very cute smile, but wait a minute.

“Nagisa…Onee-sama…?”

“Oh, yes! In our academy, we call the seniors we respect Onee-sama!”

Camilla-chan said this with a smiling face and grabbed my hand.

I’m very happy to be adored by such a cute girl… but, I’m a guy!

It’s true that I like wearing cute clothes, but I don’t want to be a girl.

So when I tried to clear up Camilla-chan’s misunderstanding― Byodoin-san whispered in my ear so that only I could hear.

“She hates men because of a certain incident, and if she finds out you’re a man when she’s so fond of you, she’ll think you betrayed her and hurt her badly.”

“Hahaha, what nonsense―”

I took it as a joke from Byodoin-san and laughed, but the next conversation between Byodoin-san and the others sent chills down my spine.

“Nekomimi-bomb, what do you think of men?”

“An enemy!”

“What if they’re standing right in front of you?”

“I-I’ll cleave them away!”

“Is there a place for men in this world?”

“There is no need!”

When the exchange was over, Byodoin-san looked at me with a look that said, “See?”.

I thought, “What’s with the catchphrase-like exchange?” But more than that, Camilla-chan’s hostility made me break out in a cold sweat.

I’m holding hands with this girl right now!

If she finds out I’m a man, will she cleave me off too!?

No, but wait a minute.

Camilla-chan was worried about Kanzaki-kun earlier.

So it’s not like she hates men at all, is it?

I thought that, so I asked her.

“Hey Camilla-chan, are you okay with Kanzaki-kun even though you hate men so much?”

When I asked Camilla-chan that, she looked at me darkly.

“Because he’s Sakura-chan’s Onii-chan and I’m afraid of Alice-Onee-sama if I mess with him…”

Camilla-chan replied as if she was sulking.

“I don’t mind if you do.”

“Eh, really!?”

Camilla-chan’s eyes lit up at Byodoin-san’s unexpected reply.

Wait a minute.

Why is she so excited about all this?

“Well, if you’re ready to go back to Germany, you should try it.”

Ready to go back to Germany?

When I looked at Byodoin-san, she was smiling at Camilla-chan.

On the contrary, Camilla-chan looked desperate and started to shake her head absurdly.

“No, I don’t want to! I’m not going back to Germany!”

“You know that, don’t you?”

“Y-Yes! I will not touch Sakura-chan’s Onii-chan!”

“Good, good.”

Byodoin-san’s words were answered by Camilla-chan with a salute, while Alice-san nudged Camilla-chan’s head.

…Yes, the relationship between Kanzaki-kun and Byodoin-san is a mystery, but the relationship between these two is also a mystery.

I can’t speak a word in English, but I’m supposed to go to America, and Camilla-chan is all over me, but if she finds out that I’m a man, I’m done for.

I don’t feel like I can hide the fact that I’m a guy, so I’m looking at Camilla-chan and the others and thinking about what I’m going to do―.
