I'm at Budokan now. Today I'm going to make a bet on the karate club,
"Sorry, please excuse me."
"Hmm, what about you?"
The person who came out was a muscular senior with a rugged physique who seemed to be the captain. With short black hair, well-groomed gi, and black belt, there is no doubt that he is quite capable.
"Would you like to bet private points with me and Kumite?"
Nodding to my question, all 14 members of the karate club, including the captain, lined up.
The lowest belt is a white belt, the intermediate level is a brown belt, and the advanced level is a black belt.
I'm sorry to say this, but to be honest, I don't think anyone who is a white belt will be able to talk about it, so I started challenging people who are brown belts.
"I'm going to show you what the karate club is capable of. That's okay, 1st year boy. Are you ready to get hurt and lose points?"
"Well, anytime is fine."
The captain makes the decision as the referee. The rules are simple. It is illegal to punch someone in the face with a thrusting technique, and it is also illegal to grab someone or throw them away. However, there is of course an attack on the stomach. There are kicks aimed at the face, but no knee kicks to the face. The time is 2 minutes 30 seconds, with an extension of 1 minute 30 seconds. The rules are the same as the Kyokushin Kaikan. I change into my gi and wrap a red cloth behind my obi, and my brown belt senior wraps a white cloth behind his obi.
The brown belt senior decided to bet 1.5 million pp, and I decided to bet 1 million pp.
"To the front, bow! To the referee, bow! To each other, bow! Ready...beginning!"
The captain gave the signal and the kumite began.
He come at me aggressively, attempting to attack with a knee strike first, but I defend against it and follow through with a hook punch to the exposed side of their abdomen. With that, the Second-year senior is knocked out.
"Ugh..."
"Red. One with a thrusting technique. Ready...continue!"
The game will begin once again with the captain's reorganization. The second-year senior's movements slowed down, as if my hook was having a strong impact on his liver. The other side was also heating up and lacking concentration, and since their upper guard was down, I took aim and delivered an upper front kick. The front kick brilliantly hit the brown belt senior in the jaw.
"Ugh..."
"Red. One upper front kick technique. Judgment, red! To the front, bow! To the referee, bow! To each other, bow!"
The brown belt senior and I shake hands and end the match. He seemed pretty shocked that he lost to me, who wasn't even in the karate club, and was pretty depressed. But a bet is a bet. I got 1.5 million pp.
"I'm next."
Next, a third year senior with two gold lines on her black belt declared war. 2nd tier… I don't like to raise my hand to women, but... this is also a game.
"I understand. It's fine."
Going into the second game, I bet 1 million pp, and they bet 1.5 million pp.
"To the front, bow! To the referee, bow! To each other, bow! Ready...beginning!"
At the beginning, the lighter woman seemed to have an advantage, as she quickly interrupted with a roundhouse kick aimed at my liver. Of course, it would hurt if i got hit, so I took care of her legs, and when I saw an opening, I countered with the same technique.
"Ugh..."
The female senior's movements slowed down a bit, but as expected from a 2nd degree black belt, she recovered quickly.
Then she approached me and gave me three thrusts, then attacked me with both legs, but I dared to receive the lower attack. But it hurts, it just hurts. The female senior seemed to be on her feet, taking a step back and performing an upper roundhouse kick followed by a back roundhouse kick. Other galleries cheered at this. It's true that she can switch quickly from roundhouse kick to back roundhouse kick, and her kicks are first-class. However, I showed no mercy and didn't miss the chance that I was spinning with a roundhouse kick to her back, and when she returned to her original position, I attacked her with a roundhouse kick.
The attack was a wonderfully clean hit.
"Fuck...."
"Red! One with a roundhouse kick technique. Ready...continue!"
Now that she's mentally exhausted, she turns into a shrew and attacks. She was different from before, and she was clearly more sloppy. The transition between punches and kicks was clearly slowing down, so I parried the attacks and waited for time to pass. Then the signal that time is up is heard.
"Stop! Red. One move, judgment, red! To the front, bow! To the referee, bow! To each other, bow!"
And so, the second game is over, and we shake hands.
"You're strong... If you'd like, would you like to join the karate club?"
"I'm sorry, but I don't think I'll join the club."
"Hehe, I see. Come if you feel like it."
I had a great time talking about this with my seniors, and was able to earn 1.5 million pp.
"Well, shall I challenge you?"
The next challenge was the final boss, the captain. He has a black belt with five gold lines. In other words, it's 5 steps. It will be quite difficult, but I will fight.
"Anytime is fine."
"Okay. I'll bet 2 million pp."
"Okay, then I'll take 1.5 million pp."
"Okay, hey, I'll ask the referee!"
"yes!"
The female senior from earlier became the referee, and I decided to fight against the captain.
Although I faced him head on, he still had a great strength and aura. The captain probably practiced karate for many years.
"To the front, bow! To the referee, bow! To each other, bow! Ready...beginning!"
At the referee's signal, the captain gave me two heavy thrusts.
Although I blocked the attack, I still felt a slight stinging pain in my hand. Since thrusts have no effect on an opponent like this, I decided to attack mainly with kicking techniques.
The captain throws a middle front kick, but I parry it and hit the captain with a middle back kick. My back kick hit cleanly and went into the captain's hato.
"Ugh..."
Seeing a chance that he was slowing down, I put in a heel drop. However, it's not that easy, and he is cross-guarded with both hands. He returns to his position and continues, but his time is up…
"Decision, draw, overtime begins! Ready...beginning!"
The game is extended into overtime, and the captain and I battle it out. Well, I guess I'm going to get a little serious just to say the final blow. With that in mind, an opportunity came to me. The back kick the captain threw didn't hit me, so I didn't miss it and used an upper roundhouse kick to the captain's face.
"Fuck...."
"Red. One with an upper roundhouse kick technique! Judgment, red! To the front, bow! To the referee, bow! To each other, bow!"
I was able to successfully defeat the captain.
"I never thought...that captain would lose to a waza-ari..."
"What is that monster!?"
Apparently, this captain has won the world karate tournament twice. I was able to defeat such a great opponent. Also, I was able to get 2 million pp, so I'm in a great mood right now.
After the game, I received words of gratitude from the captain.
"That's amazing...I realized that there is a higher level than that. After all, I was a frog in a well. You said Horagasaki. By fighting with you, I was able to take a step forward. I think I did it, thank you."
The captain extended his hand for a handshake, and I responded appropriately.
"No, thank you very much for taking your precious time."
"Hahaha, please come again. It's a gamble, but I honestly want to fight you again. Next time, I'll hone my skills before challenging you for a rematch."
"Yes, please."
That's how I was able to earn 5,000,000pp in one day, and the current amount of money I have is 8,328,250pp.
I was sweating a lot, so I was given the nice bonus of being allowed to take a shower in the karate club room, and headed to Keyaki Mall. Yes, it's about choosing clothes.
...….
Two hours later, the time was 19:00.
I bought coats, jeans, down jackets, T-shirts, and other things, and my private points totaled 8,122,580pp. I think I bought a lot of stuff. I wonder what will happen to the D-class, as if it's someone else's problem, but I'm playing Fast and Furious on my 70-inch TV.
What a rich life, isn't it?
I received a group chat invitation on my phone.
It says that Chiaki Matsushita has invited Jin Horagasaki to the group. Then, there is a curse against Horikita. I'm grateful to Matsushita, but these people's level of civility is too low. Well, Horikita is also Horikita, right? But the whole class is rotten. Feeling tired and not wanting to join the group, I declined the invitation and contacted Matsushita.
Jin: Sorry Matsushita, I appreciate the invitation, but I feel like this group is too low-key and makes me feel sick, so I won't be joining.
Once I send that, I immediately see the message has been read, and then I receive a reply from Matsushita.
Matsushita : It seems like Horagasaki-kun doesn't like this kind of thing . It's funny. If Horagasaki-kun doesn't join, I'll leave too.
Jin: Does Matsushita want to do that?
Matsushita: Well, lol, it's boring.
Wow...a girl's true nature is so gross, isn't it?
Jin: I see, thank you. See you tomorrow, good night
Matsushita: Good night!
Matsushita sent me another good night stamp and the conversation ended.
I was watching Fast and Furious and was exhausted from chatting, and I had nothing to do, so I tried to go to sleep, but I couldn't, so I decided to stop by a convenience store and buy some snacks, and when I looked at the monitor in the elevator, I saw Horikita.
Horikita walks outside while keeping an eye on her surroundings, and I follow. I could faintly hear a conversation behind the scenes, so I hid myself and watched what was going on. It looks like Horikita's opponent is the student council president, probably his older brother.
Then, Horikita's body was pulled forward and she floated into the air. As I was wondering if this was going to be dangerous or not, Ayanokouji grabbed Horikita's older brother's wrist.
Oh, that's so cool.
"...What are you?"
"You were seriously trying to throw me away right now, weren't you? This place is concrete, you should be able to tell the difference between what's okay and what's wrong."
"I'm not impressed with eavesdropping, dude. I know there's another one in there."
Apparently there was a presence, and my presence was discovered. Well, I was thinking of showing myself no matter what. Ayanokouji's eyes widen at my appearance.
"Isn't it better to just let go for now?"
I approached, and as I advised Horikita's older brother, I heard Horikita's weak voice.
"...stop, both of you..."
Then, a sharp backfist attacked Ayanokoji, who instantly dodged it. Furthermore, I was also attacked with a quick roundhouse kick, which was a pretty brutal attack that I dodged. If it were a normal person, it would be an instant KO.
"Well"
"Well..."
He reached out his right hand and tried to grab Ayanokoji. If he was grabbed, he would be thrown to the ground. Intuitively, Ayanokoji slapped his hand and took a back step to avoid her. Then, it attacked me as well, so I crouched down and did a backflip to avoid it.
"Good move, I didn't expect you guys to be able to dodge all of my attacks. And you were reading my attacks. Did you learn anything?"
"For piano and calligraphy"
"Just a tutor"
"You guys are class D, too, you guys are quite unique. Suzune."
Horikita immediately looked up at her brother in denial.
"It seems like you're still confusing Independence with solitude. And if you guys are here, it'll probably be a little more interesting."
It passed between us and disappeared into the darkness. When I try to go back to the dormitory in silence, Horikita calls me out.
"Were you listening from the beginning?"
"No, it's kind of a coincidence. I found you going outside."
"I'm the same as Ayanokoji."
"Anyway, you guys were doing something, and you're pretty well-ranked. Those moves... My brother is a 5th degree in karate and a 4th degree in aikido. There's no one who can compete with him like that."
"It's just a fluke, isn't it?"
"Ah, I only do piano and tea ceremony."
"You mentioned calligraphy earlier, right?
"...I also did the tea ceremony."
"Yes, anyway, let's go back. If someone sees this place, there might be a misunderstanding."
It's true that strange rumors would spread if there were students there late at night. At this point, everyone dispersed and went back to their rooms.
It's already this long, so brush my teeth and go to bed. Sleepiness hit me all at once, and I closed myself off in the blink of an eye and fell into a dream.
…..
The next day at noon, as soon as the chime rang, everyone in the class rushed to the cafeteria.
Sometimes I thought about having lunch at a cafe, and when I headed there, the menu was full of fancy things like pasta and pancakes. It was hard for me to get in, so i thought about having some ramen, but someone called out .
"Oh? Isn't that Rich Boy over there?"
When I turned to the direction of the voice, I saw Koenji, and around him were several seniors who appeared to be third year students. 'Hmm, is this a harem?'
"Oh, Koenji, you're super popular."
"Haha! I'm perfect in every way, so why don't you come and have lunch with us, rich boy?"
I had been interested in this store from the beginning, but it was difficult to go in alone, so I decided to accompany it.
"Then feel free to let me in, is that okay?"
"No problem."
I was sitting next to Koenji, and several third-year seniors were surrounding me. No, I can't eat it!
"Koenji-kun, yes, ah."
"Ah, haha! After all, women are limited to older people."
As I looked at Koenji with a wry smile, thinking that he was in good standing, the women around Koenji came up to me.
"Are you Koenji-kun's friend? You're so cool. What's your name?"
A few people asked me questions like that, so I got a little excited and answered.
"This is Jin Horagasaki."
"Horagasaki-kun, you have a beautiful face!"
"He's really handsome! He looks like he's blooming next to Koenji-kun."
I think Koenji is simply amazing because he doesn't shy away from facing someone like this and keeps his skin close to his.
"Rich boy, you're quite a doer too, okay? From today on, you're a playboy, hahahaha."
"Stop it! Seriously, you have the worst naming sense!"
I guess it's because of this guy that I don't know the taste anymore. I left the store as soon as I finished eating. From behind, Koenji said things like, " let's have a fun day,'' and the seniors said things like, "See you next time, let's have lunch over there at the cafe.'' That's enough, I'm tired.
...
After school, I decided to visit the library and browse through some books since I had never been to a library before. Some students are studying while others are quietly reading books.
I decided to borrow a book anyway, so I headed to the mystery corner, where I saw a beautiful girl with light blue, silver hair who was trying to reach out her arm and grab a book that was on a bookshelf that was taller than her. Even though she was almost there, she was jumping up and down and looked troubled.
Wow, that's super cute...
The book she's trying to grab is Agatha Christie's "The ABC Murders.'' Thinking that she's watching something that doesn't suit her face and is disturbing, I picks up "The ABC Murders'' and hand it to her.
"Hmm...yes, this is what you wanted, right?"
She looks at me for a few seconds and gives me a warm smile.
"Thank you very much, you helped me. I have a question to ask, but would it be okay if I asked you to tell me your name?"
"Jin Horagasaki from class 1-D."
"I see. My name is Hiyori Shiina from Class 1-C. I would be honored if we could get along."
"Nice to meet you. Do you like books?"
"Yes, I mainly like mysteries. Do you like books too, Horagasaki-kun?"
"No, I came to the library for the first time today, so I was intrigued..."
"Oh really"
Shiina smiles and talks. Ah, it's soothing…
Apparently she likes novels in general, and she has many different kinds of books. Isn't it heavy? When I looked at her, I noticed that she was carrying her book in an unsteady motion, swaying from side to side.
"Shiina...I'll have it"
"Eh?"
"No, it's heavy, isn't it? I was flopping around."
Shiina's face turns red and she looks down as she speaks.
"...I showed you something embarrassing."
"I don't mind. So, which one do you want to borrow?"
"This and this. We'll put this back in place."
"Understood"
I receive some unnecessary books from Shiina and return them to their original places. When I finished returning the favor, Shiina stared at me and beckoned me.
"Hm, what?"
"If you don't mind, would you like to exchange contact information?"
"...Huh?"
I couldn't help but make a stupid sound. I never expected that I would exchange contact information with someone I met within a few minutes... Is this girl quite a fierce person?
"Maybe...you didn't like it?"
Shiina stares at me with angry eyes. Stop it, Jin-kun, you have a weak heart. I have a weakness for girls like this.
For some reason, I decided to get ahead of myself and give her my cell phone number. When I say that, Shiina gives me a "huh?" look at her face.
"Ah, no, sorry. Yes, this is QR."
"Thank you, I don't have anyone in my class to talk to, so I'm really happy to be friends with you, Horagasaki-kun."
I also feel happy when someone thanks me with a big smile.
Then I heard an argument coming from a distance. I thought I should think about the location, so I looked into the commotion and saw a familiar face.
Sudo and someone I don't know were having an argument, and when I turned to look at Shiina, she seemed to be in a bad mood and was quite irritated.
Well, this happens in an instant....Girls are scary.
But if you think about it carefully, that's probably true. This is a library, a quiet room where some people are studying hard and others are concentrating on reading books. Anyone would get angry if they were interrupted like that.
"I'm looking forward to seeing how many of you defective students will drop out of the next test."
"Huhh!?!? are you threatening me!!"
Sudo's voltage had built up and he was ready to grab the chest of an unknown student and punch him away, and the stopper came in just before he was about to punch him away.
"Yes, stop stop!"
That person was one of the female students who seemed to be studying here. Sudo's hand stops due to an unexpected intervention.
"What? Don't let outsiders interfere."
"Outsiders? As one of the students who is allowed to use this place, I can't overlook the commotion. If you want to cause violence, can you do it outside?"
Sudo let go of the boy's hand that was holding the boy's chest when the beautiful girl calmly told him the truth
It's Ichinose?.
"Also, aren't you being too provocative? If you do any more, I'll report it to the school, but is that okay?"
"I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that, Ichinose."
The student who provoked her then left the area.
