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 26 - The End of the Sports Festival

Chapter 26 – The End of the Sports Festival

The tied score was decided by the relay race.

<This year’s Festival Sports winner is the Yellow team! Second place is the Red team!>

It’s true that Tatemiya was active and contributing to the Red team in the afternoon.

He was getting first place and earning points just like me.

However, I was the one who won the relay race.

Raising my fist, I looked back.

There, Tatemiya Yuushi was lying in tatters and crying.

“Ugh!! Uwaah!! Why!!! Uguuue!!!”

Witnessing that scene… I was stunned.

“Uegh!! What’s wrong! Why can’t I win! I’m the protagonist!!!”

His unseemly appearance was really off-putting.

Tatemiya’s behavior was like that of a child complaining in front of the whole school.

A burly PE teacher came and grabbed him by the sides and led him off the field.

As he was leaving the ground, I looked towards where Tatemiya was taken away and my eyes met with Kanja-sensei’s.

“Kanja-sensei.”

“Well, first of all, you did a good job. However, I didn’t expect it to go that far.”

Kanja-sensei also looked at Tatemiya who was taken away with a disbelieving look on her face.

“Ah, right. The results of the sports festival are out. Please attend the closing ceremony.”

Kanja-sensei chased after Tatemiya.

I’m sure sensei, who is filled with maternal love, will take care of Tatemiya after seeing him like that.

While I couldn’t shake off the thought that Tatemiya might have sabotaged me, I couldn’t help but rejoice in my victory.

“Taketo-sama.”

“Takkun.”

When I tried to return to the yellow team, I was stopped by Toranomon Akemi and Ryuoin Yukine.

“…What?”

“Could you give us just a little bit of your time?”

I let out a breath and nodded at Toranomon Akemi’s words.

Distancing myself from the closing ceremony of the sports festival, I headed towards the old school building.

There stood a girl with a towering height of 180 centimeters, boasting a muscular body.

“Saruwatari Gorimi-senpai?”

Saruwatari Gorimi, the only heroine among the third-year students, has a rough appearance, resembling a certain martial arts manga.

With a distinctive gorilla face, she fell for Tatemiya’s manly charm in the game, playing the role of a heroine who often assisted him.

Though her appearance might be a matter of personal taste, she is supposed to be a woman with a beautiful heart.

“Mitsurugi Taketo… Hmph.”

She turned away with a heavy sigh. When I followed her line of sight, I saw about ten male students sitting on their knees.

“They were not happy about Taketo-sama’s active role, and were secretly sabotaging behind the scenes.”

I tilted my head at Toranomon Akemi’s report.

“Sabotage?”

“Yes. It seems they were adding a substance to the meals of Yellow team’s male students to relax their muscles and weaken their strength. It’s a malicious act involving the use of drugs, although it’s a relatively mild one that wears off over time.”

It seems that the school has also been informed.

“Once we determine the extent of each individual’s involvement, the school will decide on the punishment. However, before that, I wanted to ask Taketo-sama for his decision. By the way…Tatemiya-san was not involved.”

It seems like these guys were acting out of their own volition, but it became clear that Tatemiya was not involved in the middle of the everything.

As if she understood what I was thinking, Ryuoin Yukine stepped forward.

“Tatemiya was involved in some behind-the-scenes activities as a member of the sports festival committee. But it was lame.”

“Lame?”

“Yeah, he did childish things like increasing the amount of flour in the bread-eating competition for the Yellow team, and raising the bread a bit to make it harder to eat, and adding a little more sand to the relay baton to make it heavier.”

…Tatemiya…

Aren’t you too childish in spirit, including the big crying you just had? Wouldn’t it have been a better idea to have Saruwatari Gorimi-senpai over there train you? Ah right, let’s stick to the bet we made earlier.

“In other words, they were using Tatemiya e as a cover for their sabotage.”

Stopping thinking about Tatemiya, I turned my gaze to the culprits. I looked at each one of them, the faces glaring at me.

“How do you feel?”

“Huh?”

A student with a sinister appearance reacted to the question. It was hard to believe that he was a student at a school attended by children of the upper class.

“You guys tried to commit misdeeds hiding behind others, attempting to get away with it without taking responsibility. Now that it has failed, I’m asking, how does it feel?”

I didn’t raise my voice. I stated the facts in a calm tone.

“Damn it. It’s nice for someone like you who was born with everything, blessed with good looks, good at studying, and even popular with girls!”

The eyes of men were focused on the heroines.

“Even though that idiot was so eager to kick you out, here you are shamelessly coming back. Nobody wants you! You naked king!”

He spewed words recklessly, confidently saying whatever he wanted.

Moreover, the other guys agreed and looked at me intensely, making me take a deep sigh.

“I see. Congratulations.”

I applauded and stood up.

I even presented them with a smile as if praising their actions.

But someone gasped in surprise at my smile.

Hey, that’s rude. I went out of my way to smile.

But that doesn’t matter.

It’s the same as always.

My mouth started moving on its own.

“What you guys did today is a crime.”

“What!”

What is there to be surprised about?

“You used a drug that caused harm to others. It falls under a complete assault charge. And if one of the students had an allergic reaction to the drug, you could have committed murder.”

“Hah, don’t mess with us! We just mixed a mild substance to relax the muscles!”

I kicked up a chair that was nearby.

“You’re the one messing around! Do you think you can do anything to someone other than yourself? What makes you, who has been protected by your parents and school all this time, act so high and mighty? Just because you’re a student and a child, does that mean you will be forgiven for anything? That’s absurd, you idiot!”

I looked straight at the person who still had defiant eyes.

“From today onwards, you are all criminals. You will not be protected by your school, your parents will abandon you, and you will live your whole life burdened with your crimes. I’m not a kind person. I will mercilessly cut you down as villains. Congratulations, you’ve joined the ranks of villains.”

As if he finally understood the meaning of my words, he showed a despairing look on his face.

The people who were shouting so vigorously just now were now silent.

“W-wait, sorry. It was a joke, right? Come on, forgive us.”

The pleading gaze that seemed to be clinging to me made me want to vomit.

“You! Who are you talking to?”

I stood tall and looked at the male student with contempt.

“I’m Mitsurugi Taketo. You know what that means, right?”

“Hiiiee!”

“I am the same kind of villain as you. You’re finished.”

I turned my back on the criminals who couldn’t say anything more.

When I turned around, Saruwatari Gorimi-senpai was frightened when she saw me.

And for some reason, Toranomon Akemi and Ryuoin Yukine had ecstatic expressions on their faces.

“I’ll leave all decisions to the school. I have no intention of using the power of the Ryuoin family to do anything. Fortunately, there weren’t any serious injuries, right?”

“Yes. There were just some boys who were unable to use their strength for about two hours and some who were experiencing stomach issues.”

“Then it’s up to the school to decide.”

When I turned around, I saw many male students with despairing faces and tears streaming down their faces.

But I didn’t feel any feelings toward them.

I had no hesitation in leaving that place.
