NTR Kousuke

Chapter 37

My relationship with Yukari-san changed a little.

We started making eye contact and laughing more often, we contacted each other more frequently, and we began spending time together whenever something came up.

Those were happy times, and I was completely engrossed in Yukari-san.

And I also explained the situation to Nagase-san.

Nagase: "Eh?! Something like that happened? So? Kousuke-kun has been accompanying Tomonaga-san for her revenge diet since summer vacation? And even Airi-senpai too!"

Nagase-san seemed down, saying "I'm behind..." but when I told her, "It's okay, I'm with her,"

Nagase: "That's what worries me..."

she said. But I was almost always with Yukari-san all summer, so... you know?

There's an attachment and a special feeling.

And then, the Sports Festival arrived.

I was able to perform well, winning in class competitions and the 200m hurdles in individual events!

Since I'm actively involved in sports clubs, I think I was able to stand out a bit at the Sports Festival.

The one who became a hot topic at the Sports Festival was Yukari-san.

Her true identity hasn't been exposed yet, but,

Apparently, people were buzzing with "Who's that cute girl?!"

What happened?

☆ ☆ ☆

Hide your existence! side Yukari Tomonaga

Osada: "Yukaricchi? Don't you dare stand out, okay?"

"Yes!"

Today, as well, I'm living a hidden life as Osada-san told me.

However, since it's the Sports Festival today and we'll be exercising outdoors, my usual long, black, non-glossy wig and mask are exempted!

I participated in the 100m race, which everyone had to enter.

I got into position in lane 6.

Girl from the class next door: "Hm? Who are you?"

Girl from the class next door 2: "Seriously, who is she? Was she in Class 4?"

"..."

(Oh no, Osada-san is going to strangle me!)

I pretended not to know.

I'll hide as soon as I cross the finish line!

(I'm slow, but I ran so much this summer... maybe I can do well today?)

On your marks, get set, bang!!

My body! Is so much lighter! Than before! With this, I can!

I run seriously! I've never been used to running before.

But! Now!

First place—!!

I won a race for the first time in my life!!

And then I disappeared immediately.

Standing out is dangerous, isn't it?

In team competitions like the big ball roll and jump rope, I was able to perform normally in ways I never would have imagined before!

I've always been a drag at Sports Festivals, but I've never actually excelled!

However, there's something bothering me.

"Class 4? Who's that girl?"

"Oh! Who could that be?"

"Was there really a girl like that? You wouldn't forget her if you saw her, right?"

There are some rumors... Will I be okay?

Osada-san heard the rumors and came over right away!

(Gah! I'm going to be strangled!!)

However, Osada-san said with a laugh,

Osada: "You did well, didn't you? Maybe you don't realize it yourself, but Yukaricchi, you've become quite cute, you know? Your existence has finally been exposed, hasn't it?"

Cute? Is that true? I'd be happy if it were true!

But my existence was exposed... even though I've been here all along, right?

"Haha, you must be joking?"

Osada: "No, it's frustrating, but you're seriously cute! That's why we stop here today! Don't go out anymore? There's no need to attract any more attention!"

Osada-san told me to hide again, so I'm hiding.

But yes, there were definitely rumors.

There's a mysterious cute girl in the first year, clearly a girl no one has ever seen before.

The mysterious beautiful girl!

A cute girl of unknown identity appeared at the Sports Festival but disappeared in the afternoon? A ghost?

(It might be self-consciousness, but! Mysterious beautiful girl!

You're setting the bar too high!)

But you know, wouldn't everyone be disappointed if they found out my true identity?

I can't help but think that.

Anyway, such rumors started at this Sports Festival, and while they haven't reached my true identity, my existence has been revealed.

It became more rumored than I thought, like "Find the mysterious beautiful girl!"

...No, please stop with the mysterious beautiful girl!

☆ ☆ ☆

Pre-announcement side Osada

That Yukaricchi, even though I told her not to stand out so much, she won the 100m race and performed pretty well in the class competitions, so?

Strange rumors are explosively spreading, like "There's a beautiful girl no one's ever seen!" or "An unknown female ghost!"

Since she just made a brief appearance and no one can identify her true identity, this actually has some utility...!

With this, at the Cultural Festival,

If we add, "She was rumored at the Sports Festival!" then attention will skyrocket, right? And for class exhibits? We can expect a huge boom!

If that happens, isn't announcing it a bit now like a good commercial?

Yukaricchi is as useful as I expected!

It's been a while since she joined my group, but she's obedient, doesn't object to what I say, and is an easy-to-handle character, which is especially good!

She'll be useful to our group!

People are saying, "Isn't she from Class 4?" so I'll hide her for a while longer, but if her true identity is revealed? Her weight loss journey and story.

And with the film club's backup, she could become a Cinderella? A Cinderella girl, perhaps? She might even become popular throughout the school overnight!

Then we might even win against Mishima in class exhibits!

"Introduce her to me!" "Then it's a trade-off!" and other rather lucrative ways to use her too...!

Kuzu: "..."

Kuzu-kun, who's handsome but vain and values things like status, seems to be interested in the "mysterious beautiful girl" and is looking for her.

That's the chubby girl you dumped lol

Hehehe! Isn't this interesting?

Yukaricchi is still a promising stock whose value will rise!

Let's nurture her more, sell her favors, and use her skillfully?

Yukaricchi needs to have a stronger sense of being a member of our group...

Ah, I've got a good idea! Yukaricchi said she wanted to cut off her escape routes, didn't she?

I'll win Yukaricchi over and cut off those escape routes!

From that day on, I informed Yukaricchi and everyone around her to treat her as a top clique girl.

I announced to everyone that if she asked for a juice, someone would buy it, and if anything happened, they would be flexible and support her.

Yukari: "Ugh! That's outrageous! I'll go myself!"

Yukaricchi isn't quite falling in line yet, is she?

Is it because she grew up in a lower caste?

Would it be more effective to win her over with a sense of camaraderie?

I changed my approach and proceeded with the plan to win Yukaricchi over.
