章節 37: What the heck is happening?
Ishigami had thought of many reactions that Chika would show after he said he had a girlfriend, but he didn't think she would be such a silly girl.
"Are you sick?"
Chika approached him and put her palm on his forehead as she looked at him worriedly.
"No, I am not."
Still, Chika clearly didn't believe his words and said, "Yes, you are. It seems that you have acute delusion syndrome. I know a good doctor. You should visit the hospital today to check on your situation. I will accompany you."
"...Senpai, I am serious."
While Ishigami appeared helpless, he said those words firmly, but Chika could only look at him in silence for a moment, trying to understand his words clearly.
Taking a deep breath, Chika didn't think that Ishigami was sane, so she asked him another question.
"An illusionary girlfriend?"
"A real one."
"You mean that waifu? Which anime did you watch, and what heroine is your waifu?"
"No, she exists, and she is my classmate."
Chika blinked her eyes and asked, "You are not lying?"
"I am not." Ishigami nodded and said helplessly, "I really have a girlfriend."
"....."
Chika fell in silence, lowering her head until she asked, "When? When did you start dating?"
"Yesterday."
"Why?!"
When she asked this question, she subconsciously raised her voice.
"She confessed to me."
Chika looked up and showed a dumbfounded expression. "R-Really? Did she confess to you? Not the other way around?"
"Yes." Ishigami nodded. "She confessed to me yesterday, and I accepted her confession."
"..."
Chika thought that this guy was lying, drunk, or even had acute delusion syndrome, but no matter how many excuses she made, she knew Ishigami had told the truth. "Why?"
"Why? What do you mean?"
"...why did you accept her confession?" Chika looked at Ishigami and asked, "I know that all the females in the first grade treated you like shit before, right? Why did you accept the confession from such a group?"
She might appear silly and idiotic, but she wasn't stupid, and she knew how horrible the female first-grade students treated Ishigami. In their eyes, before his stigma was erased, he was known as a stalker and was a jumble of negative things, so why should he accept the confession from such a group of girls?
"Not everyone is like that, after all."
While the majority of girls probably treated him like shit, it was different now, and frankly, he just wanted a girlfriend. It didn't matter who they were, as he just wanted to get rewards from the system.
It might be shitty of him to do this, considering his motives and all, but those females weren't good people either, so he didn't have much guilt even if he made a move on them.
As he had said the first time, the best revenge had never always been the one on the physical, but the one that attacked the heart.
While it was a bit cold, his focus had never been on love currently.
Love might be wonderful, but he knew that he only had ten years in this world. While he could probably return to this world and enjoy his time with his loved ones, he wasn't sure how long he would stay.
So, instead of a serious relationship that Chika might wish for him, having an easy bitch that was easy to discard was his priority.
Ishigami knew that this was bad, but no one knew what would happen in his next world.
Ishigami's original specs were quite good, but what would happen if he transmigrated into a strange character?
So, once again, while it might be cold, he knew that he should prioritize the improvement as a person.
At the same time, he really didn't dare to mess around with Chika, especially when her grandfather was a former prime minister. In the story, her grandfather was kind and doting to her, but he knew for someone to become prime minister, Chika's grandfather's hands were impossible to clean.
If this grandfather knew that he messed around with his most loved granddaughter, what would he do?
Lastly, the most important thing is that Chika might be silly and often cause him trouble, but Ishigami wouldn't hurt her.
"So... you accepted her because she was kind."
Ishigami thought for a moment, then nodded. "Well, yeah." However, frankly, anyone was fine, he thought, and it was just Onodera who confessed to him first. He might not like her that much, especially after she said something so cruel to him on the first day, but he wanted to finish his quest as soon as possible. More importantly, if he left this world with Onodera, he wouldn't feel sad, but he didn't expect Chika's answer to be so cruel.
"As expected of a virgin, you are so desperate."
"....."
The two fell in silence, and Chika realized how wrong her words were when she saw Ishigami's shocked expression.
"Ishigami... I..."
"No, you are right." Ishigami took a deep breath, thinking that he really had hurt her, but then when he thought about how he seduced her, using her body as a pillow for comfort and even laughing at night, he also understood why she was so angry when he got a girlfriend so suddenly, so he nodded and didn't deny Chika. "But thank you, Senpai."
However, it was good that he could learn her true self today, so there was no need for him to feel guilty anymore.
Chika was in a daze when she heard the words "thank you" from him, and she couldn't help but think about the memories they shared when she sneakily and naughtily came to him from time to time, yet even if she was a little annoyed, he would look at her helplessly, smiled softly, and could even counter him softly, but she knew that all of that would disappear today—
"Goodbye."
That word made her snap and reached him subconsciously.
"Wait!"
Chika hugged him tightly, stopping him in his tracks. "I am sorry... sorry... I-I didn't mean that... I-I have said too much... I am sorry, Ishigami..." Her voice was panicked and filled with cries, showing how much regret she had for the words she had said previously.
When Ishigami told her the truth, her heart was filled with ugliness and negative emotions that she couldn't help but release all of them, blaming him, but then, was it wrong for him to accept another girl's confession?
Ishigami had never said that he liked her, and she was the one who was always under the assumption that he loved her.
This was what she had always thought, so when everything didn't go her way, she threw a tantrum and blamed him, yet when she realized what she had said, she knew what kind of horrible thing she had said, and she had hurt him.
At the same time, she realized her feelings so—
Ishigami also quickly realized what Chika was about to do.
"Stop. Don't say it."
"I like you, Ishigami!"
"...."
His lips twitched, and he felt quite helpless, wondering why they couldn't control their emotions. Not only Onodera but also Chika and Kaguya were similar, which made him helpless. Frankly, what they felt wasn't love, but he felt that it should be lust, an adrenaline rush that made them do something out of logic. More importantly, they were female, an existence that moved on their emotions instead of their logic, so sometimes, while it was unthinkable, many things were possible.
At the same time, there was a saying: it was better to regret after doing it than regret not doing anything.
Chika was probably like that.
While Ishigami wasn't sure what to do, fortunately, Chika didn't let him come to a conclusion about her confession.
"I-I know that I have troubled you, especially when you have a girlfriend now, and I don't expect your answer either."
"Then, why?"
Why did you confess, then?
"Because..." Chika looked at Ishigami and said, "Because I don't want any regrets. I have fun with you, and I don't want to lose it, so I confess to you."
"...it might be even more confusing at what to do with you, though."
"...you are right."
However, this was far better than the thought of him leaving after he said "goodbye" to her; at least, there was still a leeway to fix their relationship, she thought.
Still, watching her beautiful face and her sweet scent that invaded his nasal cavity, Ishigami hesitated for a while before he sighed helplessly and decided to make a hard decision.
"Thank you for your confession, Senpai. I am happy, but—"
"Wait! Wait! I don't want to listen! Stop your mouth! I never said that I wanted to date you! I-I just want you to know my feelings!"
It was like her instinct, and she could tell that Ishigami would treat her as a good person and reject her softly!
While she had expected this, she had to admit that it was too painful for her to hear!
"Is that all?" Ishigami looked at Chika with doubt since he knew that even if someone's confession was rejected, they would still have a lingering hope within their hearts, hoping for room for a comeback to gain the hearts of their loved ones.
Chika took a deep breath, used her brilliant mind, and said, "Yes, nothing changes! I will be the Detective of Love, Chika Fujiwara, and you are my virgin junior, Ishigami Yuu!"
"...." Ishigami.
"As a virgin, I am sure that you are nervous about having a first girlfriend, but you don't have to worry that I am here! I will make sure that your love is successful, so don't forget to come to our date on Sunday! I will be your coach, so you don't mess up! Don't be late! I will wait for you!"
After she said so, Chika quickly left as if running away without waiting for his response, wiping her reddened eyes as she made up her mind about what to do.
"..."
Ishigami took a deep breath and looked at the cloudless blue sky. It was beautiful, but there was one question on his mind.
"...what the heck is happening?"
