Enchanted by the Power of the Evil Eye ~The Harem School Life Crafted by a Girl Falling Under My Hypnosis~ - Chapter 6: The Beginning of the Beginning

Chapter 6: The Beginning of the Beginning

“Oh, Kageyama-kun! Thank goodness~ Your mother said you were in pretty bad shape, so I was worried!”

The person who came into the classroom was our homeroom teacher, Amakata Ren-sensei.

Sensei noticed me and called out to me.

Amakata-sensei is a 24-year-old rookie teacher, and this is apparently her first time as a homeroom teacher.

With her lively personality and being closer in age to the students than other teachers, she’s approachable and popular with both boys and girls, affectionately nicknamed “Ama-chan-sensei.”

She’s older than Yuki-nee, but she doesn’t feel like it at all; she’s a teacher who feels close to the students in a good way.

Her short, bright haircut suits her, giving off a cheerful and energetic vibe, and above all… she’s got huge breasts!

“Ah, yes. I’m fine now. Sorry for worrying you.”

“Okay. But your face still looks a bit pale, doesn’t it? If anything’s wrong, tell the health committee member right away, okay?”

“Not Ama-chan-sensei~?”

A girl in the class said with a laugh, and everyone else giggled along with her.

“Sensei might not be here because of other classes, you know? Who’s the health committee member again?”

“Here! It’s me!!”

Akamine-san raised her hand energetically and answered.

“Kageyama-kun, if you’re feeling bad, don’t hesitate to tell me! I’ll take you to the infirmary right away!”

Akamine-san said to me while making a gesture like flexing her biceps.

(So… cute.)

Everyone in the class probably thought the same.

I could feel a murderous aura from Mutou-kun’s direction.

“Th-Thanks…”

For now, I responded.

“Hm?”

(My right eye hurts?)

I felt something off with my right eye; it was throbbing a bit.

“Alright, everyone, let’s do our best today!”

After homeroom ended, Ama-chan-sensei gave everyone a cheer and left the classroom energetically.

As the first-period teacher came in, class began.

At first, I was following along normally, but during the second period, Ama-chan-sensei’s Japanese class, it happened.

My body started feeling hot, and I couldn’t stop sweating.

My vision seemed to be gradually turning red…

The first to notice something was wrong was Kyousuke, sitting next to me.

“Hey, Mamoru, you okay?”

Kyousuke rubbed my shoulder while asking.

“I’m feeling a bit rough…”

I was getting dizzy from the heat.

“Sensei! Kageyama-kun doesn’t look well.”

Kyousuke called out to the teacher.

“Huh? Are you okay?”

Ama-chan-sensei stopped writing on the blackboard and hurriedly turned around.

“Yes… sorry… I’m feeling a bit bad, so can I go to the infirmary?”

“Of course, go right away. Can you walk?”

“Y-Yes. I think I can go alone, I’m fine…”

I tried to stand up but wobbled a bit.

“I’ll take him!”

Akamine-san stood up and came over to me.

“Akamine-san, are you okay with that?”

“Yes! I’m the health committee member, after all! Kageyama-kun, give me your hand.”

Maybe because I was so dazed, I didn’t resist and let her support my shoulder.

(She smells nice…)

A sweet, floral scent came from Akamine-san’s long hair.

(A girl’s scent…)

Mutou-kun and the others were glaring at me fiercely, but I was too unwell to care…

I was led out of the classroom by Akamine-san.

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

“The infirmary’s empty, huh.”

There was no teacher in the infirmary when Akamine-san brought me there.

Dazed from the fever, I was sat down on a bed for now.

(Alone with Akamine-san…)

I was vaguely thinking about that.

“I’m going to the staff room for a bit.”

As Akamine-san said that and started to leave, I instinctively grabbed her arm.

“…Don’t go…”

I don’t know why I did that; maybe I felt uneasy because of the fever.

“S-Sorry. You’re right, I shouldn’t leave you alone. The teacher will probably be back soon, so let’s wait together, okay?”

Akamine-san seemed a bit startled but spoke to me gently.

(She’s so kind… and cute…)

…Thump…?

The moment I felt drawn to Akamine-san… I felt something “dark” in my chest…

My right eye started hurting… my vision was turning red…

“…Akamine-san…”

“What’s wrong? Are you in pain?”

Akamine-san leaned in to look at my face when I called her.

“!?”

Akamine-san’s body jolted when our eyes met.

It was because my usually narrow eyes were “wide open.”

“Akamine-san… listen closely to my voice…”

“…Yes…”

Akamine-san muttered this, and her arms went limp as if all strength had left her body.

The light in her eyes faded, becoming vacant, and though she was looking at me, I could tell she wasn’t seeing anything.

“Akamine-san, from now on, my voice is your heart’s voice… You will act according to that heart’s voice. It’s okay, you don’t need to think about anything. Just move according to your ‘heart’s voice’…”

“…”

Akamine-san listened to my voice silently, but I could tell my words were sinking deeply into her heart.

“If you understand, say your ‘heart’s voice’ out loud and act according to it.”

“…Yes… I will act according to my heart’s voice.”

In my dazed state, it seems I turned Akamine-san into something like a doll.

Gradually, my consciousness became clearer.

And when I saw Akamine-san, like a doll… I was definitely smiling—-
