Chapter 81: A Brilliant Night For Men

TL: Akabane

***

The stadium was filled with cheers. The match between Hayao University and Posei University is traditionally famous for it's excitement.

"Kanata...it looks worse than I thought..."

Yuzuriha, sitting next to me, was watching the game with a reluctant look on her face.

"Seriously?"

"Yes. Kukuku, those guys are your next opponents! It's so bad that we can't play rivalry games like that."

Me and Yuzuriha are wearing the jerseys of the Imperial Capital University baseball team. It was for the purpose of playing rival characters in sports manga. But it seems we are at a level where we can no longer afford to play that kind of game.

"Is it bad? How bad is it exactly?"

"That pitcher. That player Imayuri. He has clearly grown more than the data before the game...he used to be a very strong player at Hayao University, so even in my simulation he was just barely winning...but his winning percentage has gone down dramatically."

"How much is that?"

"It's like there are so many zeros lined up after the decimal point."

Yuzuriha smiles. I am sure this smile is a broken smile.

"Huh...why is that Imayuri player getting so strong...that's good enough for the big leagues...what in the world happened to him?"

Yuzuriha is tilting her head, but I know why. Right now, Imayuri must be desperate to get his hands on Igarashi. That's what jump-started his potential power. That's about it. Love is amazing. But I'm always the one who gets caught up in the commotion that comes with it, and I'm always the one who ends up in the mess. Please give me a break.

"Hey Yuzuriha. If that's the case, how can we win against Hayao?"

"There is a way. But then, Kanata. I'm sorry, but please silence Hagiri."

"Okay, I'll take care of it. I'll leave it to you then."

I felt reassured by Yuzuriha, whose glasses were shining suspiciously. If this great manager says she can do something, then she can do something. I just have to believe in that. The game was won by Hayao in a cold game thanks to Imayuri's performance. The day of the battle between us and Imayuri is near...

Practice hard every day, but when it's time to cut loose, cut loose hard. I believe that on/off is the key to good work. That's why.

"Well, thank you for accepting my sudden invitation today! Well then, cheers!"

"Cheers!"

A certain Friday. I decided to have a boys' party with Kekai-senpai and Tsukasa. The place was Shinjuku Kabukicho. We toasted with beer like men at an oden restaurant recommended by Kekai-senpai. All three of us are wearing suits at my request.

"Kanata! That was a great game the other day, wasn't it? You hit a home run against that Ikeikyo University! That made my day! Hahaha!"

"Yeah! If he keeps this up, he's going to be the home run king, isn't he? Or rather, become one! Please! I spent 50,000 to make you the home run king! Let me win! Please!"

"Well, you can count on me! I'll make sure I'm the home run king!"

In a game against Ikeikyo University a while back, I hit a home run again. I'm still in a good position to make a comeback, though I'm currently down by two hits. I mean, Kekai-senpai is betting on me. I must definitely live up to their expectations.

"But this is the first time I've seen this group. Kanata is always with women, so on the contrary, it's fresh."

"Indeed, come to think of it, there was someone with a girl at the circle camp, wasn't there? I'm so envious of your popularity."

"No, no, no, I'm not. Compared to you two, I'm pure."

I heard that Kekai-senpai often takes girls home with him, and Tsukasa has a relationship with a girl he met at the club camp who lets him roll into her room and draw nude pictures of her. It seems that he has a relationship with more than one person.... To be frank, I think these two are too much in terms of their heterosexual relationship. I think they are college students, but they are just a bunch of upper classmen.

"I think Kanata is too hard, though. But I envy you, Kanata. The girls around you are all worth spending the rest of your life with, aren't they? I wish I could meet someone like that too..."

"I understand that feeling a little. It's true that neither Tsukasa nor I are lacking in women, but...fufu. I don't know how to put it...there are times when I want to be seriously in love."

It's funny how these two sluts are talking about it so intently. They're popular, so they're bound to meet someone.

"Kekai-senpai, you've met some nice women, like Kirin-san, haven't you?"

I heard it's different these days, but at one time, Kekai-senpai and Kirin-san had a physical relationship, so I guess they were practically dating.

"Yes, that's right. He's a good girl. But I can't save her. I could fill her body, but I couldn't fill her heart."

Kekai-senpai says in a very serious voice.

"But Kanata might be okay. I couldn't do it. Be nice to her. And help her out."

I don't like it when people say things like that in a serious tone. Well, Kirin-san is a fun girl, so if she's having trouble with something, I want to help her.

"Well, if it's okay, I can help her."

"I see. Then that's good. All right! Let's talk about something fun!"

From there, it was just a bunch of silly, helpless, but fun, silly talk.

"I like to stroke my nipples with a brush. Like this!"

With that, Tsukasa pulled a brush out of his bag and began to stroke Kekai-senpai's nipples with it.

"Ah, ah! Oh my god! This is the best feeling I've ever had! I've never felt anything like this before! Gyahaha!"

"Stop the brush-pulling, wow, that's a desecration of art!"

Seriously stupid banter. Men's jokes are really stupid!

"I had my first threesome the other day. It was exciting at first, you know? With two girls. But you know what? I was kind of cautious about it. Like, equally?"

"How do you find someone you're willing to have a threesome with? I've asked, but I've always been turned down..."

"That's just not the way to ask. But the trick to ask. If you're lucky, you'll get laid."

"You're asking for luck after all! I want to have a threesome too!"

"But it's not a good thing. I told you, you have to be careful. But afterwards, it's great... having a woman in both hands really satisfies my male instincts..."

"I envy you! I want to have a threesome with you too!"

The threesomes between the two hussy guys were stupid. I mean, isn't the prevalence of threesomes in my neighborhood pretty bad? Is it my imagination? Well, we indulged in a silly conversation like men, and after we got our tension up, we left the restaurant.

"Kanata, where do you want to go next? How about darts? It's easy to pick up girls, right?"

"If you want to pick up girls, that's the one! Three girls who didn't match at the drinking and eating street party! We can definitely go to the after-party!"

"That sounds great!"

"Right!"

"Yes! It's on a rolling boil!"

Tsukasa and Kekai-senpai's two slutty idiots are hunched over, discussing the arrangements for picking up girls. Perhaps this is another aspect of college students' youth. But that's not why I invited these two this time.

"You two can leave the pick-up for another time. Why don't you go along with my plan today?"

"Hmm? What? Is there some place you want to go?"

Kekai-senpai and Tsukasa tilted their heads.

"I want to treat the two of you who went out with me today to a little treat of delicious drinks. Yeah, let's have the most adult night ever...kukuku."

"Hmm. Okay, I'll do it. Great."

"Yes, that's right. If I'm going to go with Kanata, well, it'll be fun!"

And then I arrived in front of a certain store in a rich area of Kabukicho. A luxurious storefront, men in black like bodyguards.

"Hey, Kanata. Kanata, isn't this a high-class club? ...Is it related to Hagiri?"

Kekai-senpai overheard me in a serious voice. I just nodded quietly. Kekai-senpai is quick-witted, so that was enough to get through to her.

"I see. I'm really looking forward to your drinks! Kukuku."

"I don't know what it is, but if it's going to help Kanata, then fine! Come on!"

"Thank you, both of you. Let's go then!

We enter the exclusive club. We are ushered into an entrance with a gorgeous chandelier. A beautiful middle-aged woman in kimono welcomes us. She is probably the proprietress or something like that.

"Oh, my. You are still young and a new customer, aren't you? We..."

"I know you don't allow first-time visitors. I also know that you need an introduction. Kekai-senpai, please."

"Yes, I'm here. Yes, landlady. May I have a word?"

Kekai-senpai grinned and whispered something in the landlady's ear. The landlady looked surprised, then smiled.

"Please, guest. Please relax and enjoy yourself today. Ohoho."

The proprietress led us toward the back of the restaurant.

"As expected of you, Kekai-senpai. I knew you had connections in this area."

"Well, yeah. In the nightlife district, everyone except you, the anti-corporate and the yakuza are my friends. Kukuku."

"I'm not an anti-corporate. But thank you."

Kekai-senpai, the king of the riajuu, has connections all over the place. He had connections here, too. If he didn't, I was going to hit him with a wad of cash, so I was very grateful. Then we were taken to a private room. It was a luxurious and elegant space with a real high-class sofa.

"Kanata...! This menu...it doesn't have any prices on it!"

"Well, don't worry about that. Just think of it as an all-you-can-drink menu and order whatever you want."

Tsukasa is looking at the menu and is absolutely stunned. Well, to be honest, I'm a little nervous too. Money is no problem, but I'm still a small-towner at heart, so I'm going to get drunk just in this space.

"Can I order a fruit platter for now? And champagne."

On the contrary, Kekai-senpai doesn't seem nervous at all. He seems to be at home in this space. I mean, if it's just a visual thing, he has more of an air of a gangster than I do.

"No champagne. I'll do the tower later. Please use something else."

"Well, I'll have a nice sake."

I'm always grateful for their hospitality, and I want them to drink as much as they want. And then the boy came over.

"May I take your order?"

We each asked for our favorite sake. Then I put in the most important service in a restaurant like this.

"Please put one girl on each side of these two. I'll leave the choice up to you. I want that beautiful girl with green eyes on me."

"Yes, sir, but the girl with the green eyes. Suo-chan is in the middle of serving a customer right now...if it's another girl...ehehe!

"Oryah!!!"

I pull a wad of cash out of my pocket and slap the clerk flat on the cheek. The clerk looks at me in amazement as he looks at me.

"Now bring that Suo-chan to me right now. You know, the beautiful, beautiful, green-eyed, beautiful, beautiful Yamato Nadeshiko."

I shoved a wad of bills totaling about one million yen into Boy's chest pocket. The boy nodded, full of motivation, and hurried out of the room.

"I've never seen a real wad of bills slapped before. Seriously, anti-corporate! Kanata gyahahahaha!"

"The kind of girl you'd want to meet even if you must slapped someone with a wad of bills? I get my creative juices flowing so much! I can't wait to see that girl."

I ended up slapping a wad of bills. But now I can talk to that green-eyed woman. She is a lawyer who was Hagiri's aide in the future. There must be a connection even at this stage. I will definitely uncover it. And then...

"Thank you for your appointment. It's nice to meet you. I look forward to working with you."

She spoke with a slightly unusual intonation, but her bowing and gestures were so beautiful and charismatic that I fell in love with her. She looked up with a very glamorous yet elegant smile on her face. And then my eyes met with green eyes.

***Author's musings***

Suo-chan is a lawyer who was brought out by an intermarried childhood friend in the future world. In addition, she was also Hagiri's business aide.

What kind of girl she is will be told in the future, so please bear with me.

I can't wait to draw season 4.

I want to write a story where Ayashiro X is a heroine.

I want Ayashiro X to become a cool girl that readers will respect.

So I'll try to get into Season 4 as soon as possible, so please look forward to it!

See you soon.
