After rebirth, I confessed to the losing heroine - Chapter 4- Revenge?
The reason why I felt dizzy, was that I was struck with memories of this new body of mine. I assumed I would be able to retain my consciousness but alas…all those novels and manga didn’t lie.
After all those remembrances settled in, I came to know about my identity in this world.
I was reborn as, Takeda Hiroto. A canon support character who appears often in the game, to help the heroine or assist the Protagonist.
The good guy material exists just for the sake of supporting the main character.
Although a side character, Hiroto was quite popular, since other than his good looks, he was also a good best friend to not just Yuichi—the protagonist but his harem members as well.
There was no backstory about Hiroto other than the downfall of his family business and also, his relationship with one of the heroines, and even that was pre-canon, so yeah, he was just at the end, a character whom one could only rely from time to time but not get fully connected with.
And now, I was that character.
‘Now, let’s wake up…’ I was sure that after I blacked out, the protagonist would have arrived at the site so the chance of those goons attempting anything else with Miyuki, was close to zero. And that was a big relief.
As I parted my lids, the first thing I was greeted with was the white ceiling. As soon my senses began functioning well, I could smell the strong smell of alcohol, medicine and the slight fragrance of floor cleaner
Without a doubt, I was in a hospital.
I didn’t panic, rather assessed my surroundings for a bit…only to find a tall man standing in a corner.
I inspected the man and noticed he had a holster hanging at the side of his waist with a revolver placed inside of it. His eyes were covered with shades and strong muscles extruded strength even beneath that suit.
He was a top-notch bodyguard, I could tell from a single glance, but there were enough openings for me to execute him in seven different ways.
“I am not your enemy.” The man said as he neared my bed. And as he suggested, there was no sense of ill intent that seemed to be radiating from him.
I straightened my back and realized I was wearing a white, typical gown of the hospital.
“Where am I and who are you?” There was no reason to behave in hostility or excessively calm so I panicked a little and asked in a rushed voice.
In this world, I was merely a teenager who went to school, returned home on time, and was a good student in all his schooling years.
And I was planning to maintain that facade…
“You have killed a person and severely wounded three.”
“…” I was speechless. It wasn’t I killed that guy by mistake since behind my action, there was a good reason and I do not regret anything about it.
However, if a middle-class boy like me has committed a crime, in the case of minor sexual harassment…yeah, there was no way I would be getting off the hook easily.
I was about to say something when the man again cut in, “However, since you have saved Ojou-sama and didn’t let anyone harm her, it was given that the Shirogane family would help you.”
My face brightened and this time there was no deceit in it. I was genuinely relieved by the fact, that I didn’t have to deal with police and stuff just after entering this world.
Considering the fact that I have saved the daughter of such a prominent family, it was given that they would help me…however, even without that, I would have still saved her all the same.
‘Well, let’s not dwell on that.’
“Additionally, you would be given extra rewards.”
The man continued, making me perk in exclamation. In this world, being on the favored side of a big family was a good opportunity which I surely was not going to miss.
Turning toward the man, I was about to bow and say my thanks when suddenly, the door of the hospital room slid open,
*SLIDE*
My eyes turned to look at the person who walked in…
…only to find my breath hitching in my throat. My mind turned numb, which was a pretty bad thing for my profession. However, I couldn’t do anything about it since she was absolutely breathtakingly beautiful.
Her silver hair was now tied in a high ponytail and her pure crystalline violet eyes stared at me with no peculiar emotion hidden in them. She had a lean figure yet her curves added the charm a woman could die to gain. Nor too provocative nor too slim, she was just perfect.
Her elegant movements and calculated strides made no sound as she made her way toward us, before relaying some words, not to me.
“Leave.”
The baldy bowed immediately before turning on his heel and leaving us alone.
Everything around me was kind of blurry and even the bow of the baldy was just something I guessed from his movements, since at the moment, I was shamelessly gazing at her.
A smile never left my lips as I kept looking at the girl who had made me fall for her even though she was just a part of the game.
She silently took a seat beside the bed, before addressing me.
“So, what are you planning?” Her words, helped me break my daze as I raised my brows before counter-asking,
“I don’t get it. Why and what should I be planning?”
I mean, there was no way she would know anything about the Goddess and her wishes and also anything about my transmigration, right? Well, I admit, the previous owner of the body was an ordinary boy with some basic martial arts knowledge, so for him to do such stunts back in the alley seemed unnatural.
However, I had a perfect excuse for that so there shouldn’t be anything Miyuki should be suspecting as of now.
Miyuki remained silent for a moment before a tinge of annoyance blended into her eyes before she explained herself,
“What are you plotting against me? I mean, surely you must be trying to find a way to take revenge from me, right?”
…it struck me right there and then.
Miyuki and I were engaged for a certain period of time but now, she was my ex whom I should be hating.
