Chapitre 54: You are a burden (Highschool of the Dead)
"Huh? You are going out?!"
The next day, Isao suddenly said something outrageous that surprised everyone. Moreover, he wasn't alone; by his side, Rei was there, seemingly ready to follow him out.
All of them had this suspicion before, but they didn't dare confirm it. Yet when they saw his blatant action of going out to save Rei's mother, they knew that their relationship was far from simple.
'Bitch!'
Their eyes were blazing when they looked at how complacent Rei was.
Watching their expressions, Rei also didn't say anything and only stood by his side. The others might think of her as a bitch, but she didn't care since she was the one who got him. Their gazes might be far from being comfy, but she knew that they were just jealous of her.
When they could only stare at him from a distance, she had been sleeping with him, enjoying this embrace and joy that came from having her virginity taken by him. Frankly, she thought that it would hurt, yet she had to say, it felt so great~!
'When I recover, let's do it again.'
Rei made up her mind, but there was no way for her to let him go.
Kyoko also knew the strangeness between them, but she didn't say much since she thought Rei was just a little girl.
Rei knew nothing about the charm of an adult woman, and Kyoko was confident that she could seduce Isao.
Moreover, while Rei knew nothing about her, Kyoko knew everything.
'Let's see whether you can keep that expression when he leaves you.'
This was also why Kyoko was calm, yet the others lost their calm because they knew nothing and didn't expect Isao, who decided to stay, to suddenly leave with Rei.
Still, watching their reaction, Isao wondered why no one thought that he was a bastard. Instead, they thought of those who seduced him as a bitch, and he was innocent.
Was it all due to his previous conduct?
This was probably the reason.
Isao had always given a reliable, mature, and calm image. The thought of him making a move to seduce others never crossed their minds. Instead, it was the girl who seduced him as they had fallen for him.
Once again, being a good guy was great, he thought.
"You are going to go back, right?" Saya asked calmly, but her heart was far from being calm. Yesterday, she had a conversation with her parents and learned that Isao had decided to take a trip around Japan. Hearing such a fun thing... how dare this guy leave her?
However, she knew that Isao didn't leave her; he just informed her about his plan in a roundabout way since he didn't plan to bring everyone.
Isao only brought a few of them with him on this trip, and the rest?
They could just stay at this place since Isao didn't seem interested in taking care of them.
Still, knowing that she had been chosen, she was happy, but she couldn't show it on her face because her personality didn't allow her to.
"I will come back tonight or tomorrow at the latest," Isao said calmly.
"But what are you doing? Are you going to bring her parents here? Then, can you bring my parents too?"
The guys, who weren't invited, suddenly came to him and asked quickly in a panicky manner. Previously, they had decided to stay since Isao decided to stay, but if Isao left, then they would leave with him, too!
Or, rather, if Isao could bring Rei's parents, then could he bring their parents, too?
As they stayed in a safe place, Isao could do that for them.
Isao felt that they were so troublesome, and being a good guy made it hard for him to reject them, especially when there was nothing wrong with saving them, but they got ahead of themselves, thinking that he would do anything for them as long as they asked him.
Moreover—
"Can you save Takuzo-kun too, Iinuma-kun? I am worried about him, and he hasn't answered my text since last night. Please, I beg you."
Naomi, Takuzo's girlfriend, was a cute girl with dark blue hair and freckles on her cheeks, and she asked in a desperate manner.
"Naomi..."
Yet, inwardly, they didn't feel sorry for Takuzo or Naomi since everyone had to be responsible for their actions. Takuzo had decided to leave the Takagi estate, so if something happened to them, then it was their responsibility.
Moreover, how could Isao search for Takazo in this city?
This city was a damn huge!
Lastly, what would you do when he went out to search for Takazo?
Would you just stay at the estate and wait until his return?
Isao hated this kind of person who thought that they could get everything by crying.
"Don't be selfish!"
Fortunately, his woman was nice.
Rei looked at Naomi with a hateful gaze and said, "If you are worried about him, then you should tell him not to go out even if you have to force him! Our trip isn't a fun trip that you can take lightly like those on the field trip! Moreover, we're going to the university."
"U-University?!"
Rei's words stunned all of them.
Isao was glad that he had made a move on Rei. Unlike men, who have a hard time expressing their feelings to keep their image, women can easily tell what they think inside their hearts since they are thinking with their emotions.
While he was thinking about the advantages and the disadvantages, Rei thought that Naomi had troubled Isao and she was going to fight for him!
Watching an effort to defend him, Isao had to say that he was glad that he had made a move on Rei.
"Also, are you just going to stay here and wait for us? Waiting in a safe place even though you are worried about your boyfriend? If you are worried about them, then go out by yourselves! There is a limit to being selfish!"
"Rei, enough." Isao held Rei's shoulders, trying to stop her.
"Isao..." Rei was startled and quickly lowered her head, wondering whether she had said too much.
"Thank you for defending me. I am happy." His words were simple, but they were enough to make Rei happy.
Yet this also made them realize Rei wasn't just a mere toilet to have sex with him.
Watching how she could help him during the critical moment, some of them knew that Rei's position in his heart had definitely risen, yet there was nothing they could do to stop this.
"But Rei-senpai is right. I plan to go to the university to take some books necessary for the future."
"...what do you mean?"
"You should remember what I told you before, right?"
Isao told them that they might lose their electricity and water in the future since no one take care of them, so he told them about his plan to learn the necessary knowledge with the books he could get at the university.
When they heard Isao's plan, they were amazed, but the guys who wanted to go out quickly hid their heads like turtles, quickly hiding inside their shells.
As for the girls, no one thought about leaving, so there was nothing to worry about.
Nevertheless, when they acted like this, Isao was happy since there was no need for him to be polite with them anymore. Still, while he was at university, he also went to visit Rei's house to save her parents.
However, whether it was Rei or Isao, neither of them planned to say this plan since it would lead to trouble instead of being thanked.
Yes, Isao might be reliable and had a chance to save all of them, but did he have an obligation to save all of them?
If so, then he might as well save all the people from this world who were in pain due to a variety of miseries.
"I will come with you," Saeko suddenly stepped forward. "I can help you, and with me, it will be faster to move the books."
"Okay." Isao agreed with Saeko since he knew how reliable Saeko was.
Only Rei narrowed her eyes since she could tell that Saeko was interested in her boyfriend, but it didn't matter since the one who was able to sleep with him was her.
"I-I will come with you too!" Naomi suddenly said, but before others retorted to her, she said, "I am just going to help you. There is no need for you to search for Takazo, but if we happen to meet him, then can you save him?"
Isao looked at Naomi for a while, but she never wavered. "Don't expect me to find him."
"Yes." Naomi nodded and quickly said, "I-I just want to help you. I won't do anything that will burden you."
Since Naomi had said all of that, it would have been too much if Isao had refused Naomi anymore. Still, he noticed that whether it was Saya, Kyoko, Shizuka, or the others were ready to follow him, but he quickly stopped them. "Don't follow us. Just stay."
"Why?"
They were at a loss, and some were even unable to accept his decision.
"More people is a burden for me. I can't take care of all of you like before. It is hard for me to do so. When I bring you with me, I think of you as my responsibility. While I know that you will say that you won't cause me any trouble, you will expect me to save you when you meet danger and be a burden for me.
"Having such a responsibility is hard, and once is enough for me."
Isao didn't care about their feelings and told them the truth. After all, did they think of his feelings when they thought of following him? In their minds, they selfishly thought that he could do anything.
Yes, with his ability, he could control all of them or save all of their families.
Moreover, once again, as a good person, shouldn't he save them?
Yet, this expectation that they put on him, Isao had to say, was so troublesome!
Sometimes, Isao wished to throw everything away and just live as he wished.
If there was a reason he didn't do it, it was because he still wished to become good. His purpose to become a good person still hadn't been subdued, but the good person on his mind was different from the tool that would listen to everyone's wishes.
Still, he was kind since he didn't brutally tell them that they were just a liability for him.
"Let's go, Rei-senpai."
"Um."
Rei followed him obediently by his side and felt great since she was the one chosen, but—
"Do you want to follow or not?"
Isao looked at Saeko and Naomi calmly.
The two quickly moved and followed him at the same time.
"...."
Rei's lips twitched, but it was fine.
Naomi aside, since she had a boyfriend, Rei decided to watch over Saeko on this trip.

By the way, I have read your comments, and I understand them.
Many are happy, but some aren't confident, thinking that Isao will be invincible in the world of "Baki," but I think that the world of "Baki" is much stronger than "Kimetsu no Yaiba," especially Yuujiro Hanma, so his fight will definitely be difficult.
Still, the real problem is the heroine.
Frankly, I also don't like Kozue Matsumoto (Baki's girlfriend), the heroine of the story, especially when her love isn't so strong toward Baki, but then again, it is hard to fall in love with a guy who falls into a daze all the time like an... a bit rude but an idiot.
However, you forget there is also another beautiful heroine in this story; she is gentle, considerate, mature, and isn't crazy, but let's wait till later.
By the way, I have just read "To Love-Ru," and I have to admit that it is a great story with a profound and deep meaning that is worthy of learning.
Moreover, Rito Yuuki isn't as bad as you think he is.
Lastly, it is the world of "High School of the Dead" again!
