I Reincarnated as The NTR Villain in a Gal Game After His Evil Deeds Were Exposed, But For Some Reason, The Heroines Keep Approaching Me~ - Chapter 22 - Sports Festival 1

Chapter 22 – Sports Festival 1

At the sports festival, four captains lined up to recite the athlete’s oath.

As the only first-year captain, I definitely stood out, but no one said anything when they heard my name.

“Athlete’s oath, Mitsurugi Taketo.”

Representing the athlete’s oath, I weaved my words.

Among the captains, there was a second-year student, Ryuoin Yukine, and the other two were third-year students.

“We pledge.”

“To give.”

“Our all.”

“And fight.”

“Tojo Academy Sports Festival begins!”

Once the athlete’s oath was complete, the voice of the broadcasting club echoed across the field as they took on the role of the moderator.

The field, where about 600 students from all over the school gathered, was filled with waves of people.

Tents are set up for each team, and I sit in a chair specially provided for the captain, observing the situation.

Although I don’t really want to participate, there are some competitions that I absolutely must participate in as a captain.

So, reluctantly, I decided to take part in those.

Before the competition began, I gathered everyone and looked at each person’s face.

“Us Yellow team cannot afford to lose! If we lose due to lack of strength, then lose with all your might! If you’re going to lose without giving it your all, consider yourself unworthy of the fight!”

“””””Yes!!!!!”””””

The response, resembling that of military units, almost made me smile. But it would be inappropriate to do that in the current atmosphere.

“Girls, cheer for me.”

“””””Kyaaaaaa!!!!!”””””

The yellow team’s cheer rose.

“Boys, fight for the girls!”

“””””Whoooaaa!!!!!”””””

Thunderous cheers echoed.

My first job is finished.

“Taketo-sama! That was really cool. In the race, I won’t lose to anyone! Nazuna dedicates her victory to Taketo-sama!”

Is it possible for someone with a petite frame and G-cup breasts to run fast? But just as Nazuna said, she came in first at the finish line.

“Taketo-sama, I got first place!”

She came back happily and I patted her on the head.

For some reason, other girls started lining up as well, so I patted all of the winning girls on the head.

“Leave the obstacle course to me.”

Mimi joined races involving obstacles such as balance beams and crawling through nets. Using her cat-like flexible body, she snatched first place.

“Praise me.”

Following Nazuna, I stroked Mimi, who came back to get her compliments, and rubbed her chin, and a line formed again.

“I’ll do my best in the bread eating competition!”

It’s Momo! Every time Momo jumps to eat bread, the male students cheer.

Although the girls competing next to her give her annoyed looks, an organizing committee member, captivated by Momo’s charm, lowered the bread for her, allowing her to secure first place.

“Taketo-sama! I won first place!”

For some reason, it turned into the customary praise time, and a line was formed.

The yellow group achieved good results in each competition, winning first place.

However, the boys’ side isn’t performing as well.

Male-only events like the horseback battle and tug-of-war end with third or fourth place finishes one after another.

First place earns ten points.

Second place earns seven points.

Third place earns five points.

Fourth place earns three points.

Points are distributed according to the ranking.

While even lower-ranked positions earn points, it’s evident that a significant gap is opening up.

Even if the girls secure many first-place finishes, if the boys perform poorly, our overall ranking will take a hit.

Currently, the White team, to which Toranomon Akemi belongs, is in first place.

The Yellow and Blue teams are in a close competition for second place, while the Red team is in last.

Suddenly, I felt the need to use the toilet, so I left my seat.

“Hey, what about the preparations for that?”

As I went to the bathroom, I heard someone talking behind the toilet.

“The sabotage against the Yellow team seems to be going well. The boys are not in good shape.”

“Kukuku, thanks. Here, this is what we promised.”

“Yes!”

It sounded like a suspicious conversation, so I peeked through the window. However, all I saw was a male student walking away.

Sabotage against the Yellow team’s boys?

There might be something going on.

Perhaps the reason for the boys’ poor performance isn’t just due to a lack of form. If there’s a cause, I need to investigate.

“Sigh, do they really have to go this far? It’s just a school sports festival.”

After the first half of the competition was over, I gathered the boys together.

Their faces looked pale, and few people looked up, probably thinking I was going to scold them.

“I want to ask you all. Is your physical condition okay?”

“Huh?”

“What?”

“Ah?”

Nearly 80% of the boys held their stomachs and looked frustrated.

It seems the words spoken by the person behind the bathroom were true.

Someone did something to the boys of the yellow team.

At the end of the first half, all teams except the White team were tied.

“I can tell by the way you compete that you don’t feel well. I sincerely thank you for doing your best.”

I bowed to the boys and thanked them.

The boys had expected to be scolded, and to my surprise, some of them were crying.

“First and foremost, take care of your health. If you’re not feeling well, go to the infirmary, don’t push yourself. I’ll cover for you in any event when you’re unwell. So, rest assured and take a break.”

Those who were not feeling well at my words thanked me one by one and ran to the first aid room or toilet.

Good job for working so hard.

“Nazuna.”

“Yes!”

“Looks like we’ve fallen into a trap.”

“A trap?”

“Yeah, I guess I wasn’t really serious. From here on, Mitsurugi Taketo will seriously crush the other competitors. Can I leave the girls to you?”

I looked at the maid I trust the most.

Nazuna’s expression became happy and she smiled from ear to ear.

“I am honored! I will definitely bring victory to Taketo-sama.”

“Alright, first, I’ll participate in the events from the afternoon. In case of poor health, a substitute should be allowed.”

“Yes!”

“Momo, please take care of the boys.”

“Leave it to me! Taketo-sama, don’t overexert yourself too much, okay?”

“Ah, Mimi. I’m also counting on your athletic ability.”

“Yes. I’ll do what I can.”

I started warming up to prepare for the next event.

<Now, the next event is the boys’ short-distance run>

“I’m off.”

“Good luck!”

“We’re cheering for you, nyaa~!”

“Take care!”

I was sent off by the three girls and took first place in my first competition.
