Enchanted by the Power of the Evil Eye ~The Harem School Life Crafted by a Girl Falling Under My Hypnosis~

Chapter 11: The Subtle Changes in Her and Me…

“It’s definitely because of these eye drops, right? Did Onee-chan really make them…?”

Back home, I lay on my bed, staring at the eye drops.

I reflected on today’s events…

(I really did that to Akamine-san and Yuki-nee…)

As soon as I calmed down, I got scared of what I’d done… but… the exhilaration and sense of accomplishment…

They filled me up… my heart and body felt satisfied…

I tried using the power on Mom when she got back from her part-time job, but it had no effect.

(There’s definitely a time limit. I need to be careful how I use it.)

I was already naturally thinking about who to use it on next.

It’s only natural to use something you have, right…?

(Should I stick with Yuki-nee…? No, no, that’s not an option. Natsumi, maybe? Nah, not yet for some reason…)

I ran through the faces of the girls in my class in my head, realizing how high the average attractiveness of our class is.

(I never really thought about it before…)

After thinking it over…

“Alright! Kurokami-san it is!”

I sat up, picturing Kurokami-san.

Making an “untouchable flower” like her fall would definitely be fun…

Having her by my side would be so enjoyable…

A smile naturally spread across my face, and my pants got a little wet.

I can create a fun school life…

(Akamine POV)

“Is Kageyama-kun coming to school today…?”

For some reason, the first thing I thought about when I woke up this morning was Kageyama-kun.

(Why? Yesterday, I was just watching him sleep in the infirmary until Asuka-chan came… I should’ve done something more for him…)

“Yuna, good morning.”

“Oh, Asuka-chan… good morning…”

“What’s wrong? You seem kinda down.”

Utashiro Asuka-chan, who I met on the way to school, looked at me with concern.

“Oh, yeah… I’m just thinking about Kageyama-kun…”

“Why? Did he do something to you in the infirmary?”

“It’s not like that! I’m just worried about his condition!!”

For some reason, Asuka-chan’s words irritated me.

“S-Sorry. Don’t get so mad.”

“Oh, no, I’m sorry too. But I don’t think you should say things like that.”

“My bad, I’ll be more careful. But it’s kinda rare to see you like this, Yuna.”

“Is it…? Yeah, maybe?”

Asuka-chan looked a bit surprised.

“What? No way, is it love? For Kageyama?”

“Come on, Asuka-chan!”

“Sorry, sorry, I won’t tease you anymore. He did look pretty rough yesterday.”

Asuka-chan, seeing my angry face, must’ve thought she went too far and changed the subject.

“He’ll be fine, I bet he’ll show up at school all cheerful. You were by his side yesterday, so he’s probably feeling better… right!”

Asuka-chan said this and poked my cheek.

“Stop it, we’re outside!”

I couldn’t help but blush; I love when Asuka-chan does stuff like this.

“N…?”

I felt my body twitch slightly…

“What’s wrong? Are you feeling sick too, Yuna?”

Asuka-chan peered into my face.

“N-No, I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m okay.”

I laughed it off.

Good morning! Good morning! Good morning!

“Good morning!”

When I entered the classroom, everyone greeted me, and I naturally scanned the room.

“What’s wrong? You’re looking around, and you seem kinda down.”

Kurokami Sayaka-chan asked me with concern.

Sayaka-chan always notices subtle changes in people, though she doesn’t often say it out loud.

“No, it’s nothing. I’m fine!”

I replied energetically so as not to worry her.

“Looks like spring has come for Yuna-chan too, huh?”

“What? Really, Yuna?!”

Asuka-chan, who came into the classroom after me, said this, and Sayaka-chan and the rest of the class started buzzing.

“As~ I~ said~… Asuka-chan!”

I glared at Asuka-chan with my fiercest face.

“Just kidding! Our class’s hardworking health committee member is just worried about a sick classmate, right?”

“Sounds like there’s nothing to worry about then.”

Sayaka-chan glanced toward the classroom door.

I followed Sayaka-chan’s gaze…

Thump…

Huh? Am I… feeling nervous…?

My heartbeat feels a little faster?

“Oh!!”

My heartbeat suddenly surged.

There was Kageyama-kun, standing with a puzzled look.

“Good morning… It’s kinda noisy in here, what’s going on?”

“N-Nothing! Good morning, Kageyama-kun.”

Huh? My lips feel sweet…

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

(MC POV)

When I entered the classroom, everyone was staring at me for some reason.

It felt like there was some kind of buzz. But when I realized Akamine-san was at the center of it, it made sense.

(Was my cleanup yesterday not thorough enough?)

“Good morning… It feels kinda lively in here, what’s up?”

I asked, putting on a puzzled face.

“N-Nothing! Good morning, Kageyama-kun.”

Akamine-san answered hurriedly, as if trying to cover something up.

I couldn’t help but glance at Akamine-san’s lips.

They looked even more sparkling than usual.

Yesterday… I… those lips…

My throat made a sound.

Her embarrassed gesture of tucking her hair behind her ear was so… cute… Her exposed ear was bright red.

“A-Are you already okay?”

“Yeah, I’m feeling totally refreshed. Thanks for yesterday, Akamine-san.”

“No, no, it’s just my job as the health committee member, you know?”

She seemed embarrassed… even cuter.

For some reason, Akamine-san looks even cuter than usual today, and maybe a little bit sexier too.

Mutou-kun is glaring at me fiercely… Sorry, but I already claimed Akamine-san’s lips.

I was filled with a sense of superiority.

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

Lunch break! Time for lunch.

Until today, this was my favorite time at school…

I took out the bread Mom bought for me from my bag. Mom’s busy with her part-time job, so lunch is always bread.

She used to try hard to make something, but I told her not to.

(She’d get tired, and it’s easier on my mind if she rests instead.)

I started munching on the bread mindlessly.

“Eating convenience store bread again? No wonder you got sick.”

I turned toward the voice, a bit annoyed… It was Akamine-san standing there.

“Mom’s busy, you know. I can’t cook either.”

That might’ve come out a bit harsh.

“Oh, sorry. I didn’t mean it like that… Um, well…”

Akamine-san was fidgeting… What’s up?

“If you’d like… want to eat this? It’s just rice balls, but…”

Akamine-san held out a lunch box with three rice balls.

(This is bad, bad, BAD… The rice balls look delicious, but… this is bad…)

The classroom went silent… Everyone looked like they couldn’t believe it.

Mutou-kun’s eyes were filled with murderous intent…

Of course.

Even though Akamine-san is kind and friendly to everyone, she only ever shares her homemade food with her female friends. Even those girls were staring, frozen.

I… became the first guy in this school, at least, to eat Akamine-san’s homemade food.

Amid the girls’ “Yuna’s trying so hard” looks, the guys’ envious stares, and some glares filled with hostility, I thought about what to do… but…

“N-No thanks… maybe?”

Tears welled up in Akamine-san’s eyes, her ears bright red…

“N-No, I’ll take it! I’ll eat it! Thank you!”

I took it!

“Haha, why the polite speech…? You’re still recovering, so eat properly, okay?”

With that, Akamine-san jogged back to where Kurokami-san and Utashiro-san were.

After being whispered something by Kurokami-san and Utashiro-san, she shook her head and hands, her ears still bright red.

(Too… too cute…)

I didn’t know if it was her kindness or “yesterday’s influence,” but seeing Akamine-san’s smile, it didn’t matter anymore.

“I-I’ll eat.”

I bit into the rice ball.

“No comments—?”

A girl in the class teased me.

“I-It’s delicious. Really… delicious. Akamine-san! Thank you!”

I hurriedly thanked Akamine-san.

Akamine-san looked away from me and nodded, her ears bright red.

I felt happy and, at the same time, felt that dark thing stirring inside me.

I really… want her…
