Why does the Ruined King still fall in love?

In Nakamachi Chika's view, Hikiya Hachiman's determination is great, but at the same time, he is also a little worried about whether this will become a shackle... But since he is actively working hard to improve, this worry should be Don't worry too much.

However, in fact, it is also because of this that people are more anxious.

Nakamachi Chika knew very well that Hikiya Hachiman, who wanted to continue to improve herself, would not convey her heart to Orimoto Kaori.

She also didn't know whether to sympathize with Orimoto Kaori, who was trying to show her charm, or Hikigaya Hachiman.

Either way, it's a real rush for onlookers to see how long these two have been together for long.

As for myself... As a woman who is more underground than her underground girlfriend, it's better not to do too much extravagance.

In short, Chika Nakamachi patted Hikigaya Hachiman on the back lightly with the intention of cheering on.

Hikigaya Hachiman looked over with a look of "what are you doing", so Chika Nakamachi smiled back.

"Qianjia, what do you think of me?"

"No, I just feel that Hachiman is really serious and sincere about these things. By the way, what does Hikiya Hachiman like about Kaori?"

"...?"

As soon as Nakamachi Chika asked this matter that she had been concerned about, Hikigaya Hachiman slightly opened his eyes, and his mouth opened and closed showing a puzzled expression.

???????????????

His performance was a little different from what Nakamachi Chika thought.

So far, Nakamachi Chika has tried her best to avoid directly asking about these things. Now she asks because she feels that Hikigaya Hachiman has already admitted her feelings and faced them positively, so it shouldn't matter if she asks.

Hikigaya Hachiman probably didn't expect to be asked this question suddenly, right?

Chika Nakamachi grinned as she thought so, and waved her hand.

"I'm not going to tell Kaori. I didn't intend to do such an incomprehensible thing, because Hachiman is actually quite straightforward? He doesn't like to associate with people...or he has a strong sense of vigilance. Yes, so I want to know why you fell in love with her..."

"...Does this have to be said?"

Hikigaya Hachiman looked at Chika Nakamachi who seemed to be thinking of something strange, and asked seriously.

Chika Nakamachi seems to have completed the relationship between him and Kaori Orimoto in her mind...

"It's true. It's just that I care a little bit. I always feel that although everyone will like Kaori, Hikigaya Hachiman probably doesn't have the same reason. It's because I'm a friend of the two of you that I care more... ..”

Kaori Orimoto is very cute and attractive. Even in the eyes of Chika Nakamachi, who is of the same sex, her appearance, behavior and personality are all cute.

The reasons I heard from my schoolmates for liking Kaori Orimoto are mostly both civil and military, treating everyone equally, being as warm and gentle as a Thunderbolt girl, an ideal girl.

The impression of Kaori Orimoto in the eyes of Chika Nakamachi who is familiar with Kaori Orimoto is slightly different from the Kaori Orimoto in the eyes of people who are not very familiar with Kaori Orimoto.

Then, from the perspective of Hikiya Hachiman, who is more familiar with Kaori Orimoto than Chika Nakamachi, what kind of girl Kaori Orimoto is and what she likes about her should be different.

This time, Nakamachi Chika looked at Hikigaya Hachiman without a hint of joking.

Hikigu Hachiman frowned, his expression changed a bit, and then he lowered his head as if he was a little tangled.

He seemed to be thinking about how to explain to Chika Nakamachi.

"...You ask me, where exactly...it's a bit difficult to answer. I think it's all about her, and I like the complete one, right?"

Hikigaya Hachiman thought for a while, and chose not to explain, but followed Chika Nakamachi's question and said the answer, because it catered to Chika Nakamachi, so this answer was in a sense just as Chika Nakamachi expected.

"...Kaori is not as perfect as the people around her think. Although she looks very restrained, she is also quite tough in some places, sometimes has a bit of a poisonous tongue, and she is also critical when evaluating things To be honest, she is neither polite nor merciless. Sometimes she will suddenly get awkward, get angry, and even hit me with a head hammer at the end. She will doze off without warning, and will be afraid after having a nightmare...  ..Looking at her, you can understand that she is just an ordinary girl."

Hikigu Hachiman said this in a low voice, little by little, and his expression was extremely gentle.

He must have said that while thinking about Kaori Orimoto, right?

Chika Nakamachi thought so.

"...I don't know how many things she told you. Although she always hides her sincerity behind her smile, in essence, she is actually a person who is afraid of being lonely but timid, afraid to ask others for help. Obviously you can ask for help from others, but you don't know how to ask for it, and you don't know how far you can get help from others, so you can only curl up there by yourself and endure silently. Could it be said that you are the type who likes to be brave?"

Chika Nakamachi could more or less see this.

When Kaori Orimoto encountered something really painful, she would not ask Chika Nakamachi for help.

Chika Nakamachi has also seen that she did not show it on her face when she encountered unhappy things, and she endured silently.

For example, when I saw that woman named Yukinoshita Yukino holding Hikigaya Hachiman's arm while shopping... Kaori Orimoto's nails almost pierced her palms, and she finally held back and didn't act Bulb.

"When she relied on me for the first time and acted like a baby to me, I felt that I wanted to cherish her and stay by her side. Probably, I didn't feel that I wanted to protect her. Of course, in the face of those who don't have to bear Unreasonable pain, I want to protect her and prevent her from suffering. But how should I put it...I should want to be by Kaori's side, support the brave one, and I'm not good at asking others for help , Kaori Orimoto, who disguises herself with a strong appearance, but is actually timid and afraid of loneliness in her heart?"

Hikigaya Hachiman said this in a calm tone, and lowered his eyes, it seemed that he really cherished the girl who was not here.

Regardless of whether she thinks so in her heart or not, at least in the eyes of Nakamachi Chika.

"I hope she can laugh more, and I hope to support her by her side. Even if she encounters difficult things, I can support her from the sidelines. I hope that I can overcome suffering with her. I hope that I can be there when Kaori wants to cry. , can understand her and bear these pains with her.”

Having said that, Hikigaya Hachiman raised his head.

Although his eyes were gentle, they contained a clear will.

Chika Nakamachi also looked straight over.

"Well, ask me what I like about her, and my answer is everything. Everything, whether it's her strong side or her weak side, I love it... That's the reason for liking her, probably like this... ..”

After talking about everything, he started to feel shy, Hikigu Hachiman's face was a little red, and he turned his head to look to the side.

Chika Nakamachi saw Hikigaya Hachiman like this, her lips curled up in a small arc involuntarily.

No wonder Kaori Orimoto fell in love with him...

It turned out that Hikigaya Hachiman respected and cherished Orimoto Kaori so much.

It is precisely because of this that Kaori Orimoto likes him so much and wants to stay by his side.

These two people were supposed to like each other, and they did.

With such thoughts, Chika Nakamachi walked towards Hiki Valley Hachiman from behind.

He was turning on the faucet beside him to release water, so as to calm down his rosy face from exercise.

"I said, Hachiman..."

Hikigaya Hachiman washed off his sweat, and as soon as Nakamachi Chika made a sound, Hikigaya Hachiman turned to look at her.

"Why, don't say it's bad."

"It's disgusting, I wouldn't say such impolite words. It's just that I think, um, it's nice to have a friend like Yawata."

"What's the matter, suddenly started to say such embarrassing words."

"No way! It's just that I suddenly felt that way~ Besides, if it's embarrassing to talk about, Hachiman, who was talking about it just now, doesn't have the qualifications!"

Anyway, I want to tell Hikigaya Hachiman about this feeling first.

Chika Nakamachi herself has made friends with many people since she was a child, and met many people. Among them, Hikigaya Hachiman's character is good enough to make Chika Nakamachi really feel that it is worth making this friend.

Although the unshakable one in my heart is my friend Orimoto Kaori, but Hikigaya Hachiman can probably be ranked second.

Really, if I could honestly say what I just said to Kaori Orimoto, the matter would have been settled long ago, right?Kaori wouldn't occasionally show a helpless expression, would she?

The passionate love just now made even Nakamachi Chika feel her cheeks burn a little.

Hikigaya Hachiman's feelings for Orimoto Kaori are very serious and unshakable. If Orimoto Kaori hears it, I feel even worried that she will blush and faint directly.

Sure enough, it's still urgent enough.

After reaching the conclusion, Chika Nakamachi couldn't help laughing.

Hikigaya Hachiman looked over with some doubts in his eyes, but Nakamachi Chika didn't care, just giggled and patted Hikigaya Hachiman on the back.

This action is also a reminder to Bikigu Hachiman to cheer up and tell her these words quickly.

"Then it's time for me to go. Ah, yes. Don't eat too much for dinner, because there is dessert today?"

Chika Nakamachi is going to make snacks at Kaori Orimoto's house next, and the finished products will definitely be brought out after dinner.

Not to mention making desserts, even before Kaori Orimoto's home arrived, Nakamachi Chika already felt a little sweetened.

She smiled again at Hikigaya Hachiman, who seemed to be completely confused about the situation, and left the park in a brisk manner.

"Ah~, so let's talk about these two people..."

Chika Nakamachi deeply felt that it is not easy not to interrupt her friend's love quietly, and walked happily to Kaori Orimoto's house.

In fact, she still wanted to ask Hikigu Hachiman, "What about me?" '.

But hearing Hikigaya Hachiman's declaration of love, Nakamachi Chika was already satisfied, because she knew that she should also have this status in his heart.

-

Seeing Nakamachi Chika's cheerful back, Hikigaya Hachiman sighed.

"What a deceitful woman... But I really think so too, although the main target is not you and Kaori."

After all, when Hikigu Hachiman said the declaration of love, the person in his mind was always Yukinoshita Yukino.

Chapter 63 P.E. Lesson with Ishiroha

"Okay—alright, it's about time for the boys to go. Get ready—"

In the middle of the playground, the professor in charge of physical education was shouting.

Today's homework is a long distance run.

Running a long lap on a specific route outside of school and then returning to campus is a very boring classwork.

Because it is a university, it is possible for two students of different grades to take the same course.

Although the probability is relatively small, it is indeed the case for Hikigaya Hachiman and Isshiroba.

"It's always been done like this before."

I can't help but think that I often did the same thing in physical education class in high school, which makes Hikigaya Hachiman a little nostalgic.

There are also some people who are currently participating in the after-school activities of the sports club who are very motivated to prepare, but for Hikiya Hachiman who will no longer participate in the sports club, he is not so motivated.

After all, his time was severely limited by the girls around him. If he wanted to join any club other than working in the student union, he would first have to pass Yukinoshita Yukino's test.

My fiancée will probably ask him with a cold face which beautiful girl from the sports club he has a crush on again?

Really... I am your fiancé, isn't my character worthy of trust... It seems that it is not very worthy.

In this case, don't think too much, just deal with running properly to solve it.

"Let's go——then let's begin!"

Following the sound of clapping instead of firing guns by the physical education professor, the boys began to run.

Hikigaya Hachiman also followed the direction of the crowd and ran towards the outside of the school together.

Even though he is not a member of the sports team who has been specially trained, his body still memorizes knowledge such as correct running posture, coupled with his already excellent physical fitness, so Bi Qigu Hachiman can still move forward and surpass most of them with ease. student.

Not long after, Hikigaya Hachiman saw the backs of the girls who started ahead of the boys at the end of the line.

"............Ok?"

Then, I saw the figure of someone who wasn't supposed to be there.

"Oh—senior, you're finally here!"

It is Hiki Valley Hachiman's favorite little girlfriend Isiroba.

But now Isshiroha should be taking the same physical education class, but she has no intention of running away at all, and for some reason stands there to welcome Hikigaya Hachiman.

"......what are you doing"

This guy's motor nerves are not mistaken, it's very good, it doesn't seem like he will be so weak at the end of the team.

"Of course, I want to run with senpai. Do you feel the cuteness of me who wants to spend time with you even if there is only a little time?"

"I feel like I'm pretending to be cute..."

Yi Caiyu is a master at pretending to be cute.

If you want to explain it, it is playing tricks, which probably means that women use various means to express themselves in front of men.

"That's acceptable. After all, pretending to be cute is the same thing as being cute."

Isshiroba used a very rough theory created by himself to cleverly convey some yin and yang words to Hiki Valley Hachiman.

She is really a positive woman no matter when and where.

"Because of that, let's run together?"

"It can be... What is the real purpose?"
