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 37 - Provocation

Chapter 37 – Provocation

After I met Takatori-sensei, Kanja-sensei and Takatori-sensei started to talk to me often.

“Mitsurugi-kun. Are you having any trouble?”

“Kanja-sensei. Thank you for your concern. I’m fine.”

As I specialize in engineering, I always get approached after chemistry classes.

Even when there are questions from other students, she always approaches me, so I feel a gaze of suspicion.

But Kanja-sensei doesn’t seem to notice.

And as I was walking down the hallway, I met Takatori-sensei, who was coming out of the music room.

“What is it, Mitsurugi? Are you interested in taking my class?”

“No, I don’t think I’ll change my curriculum now.”

“I wouldn’t mind giving you private lessons, you know.”

“No, no, I’ll refrain from troubling you with that.”

I don’t want to attract unnecessary hate by getting involved with another attractive teacher.

“Don’t hold back. It’s not like I want to hear your piano playing or anything. Don’t misunderstand!”

“I know.”

Getting approached by female teachers, not just by my classmates like Nazuna, makes me stand out to others.

“Takatori-sensei. What are you doing?”

“Ah, Kados-sensei. I was just interacting with the students.”

“I don’t appreciate you getting too friendly with specific male students. Mitsurugi-kun, your next class is mine. Hurry and head to your classroom.”

Although he said it while smiling kindly, his tone had a bit of a harsh vibe to it.

As for me, I understand why this man uses such a harsh tone towards me.

I couldn’t help but sigh.

“Kados-sensei.”

However, the fact that he harbors hate towards me in the absence of Tatemiya means he likely still holds impure feelings towards Takatori-sensei.

When trying to win the heroine Takatori Neon, Kados not only appears as a nuisance character, but also a person with quite dangerous thoughts.

If I hadn’t been playing the game, I would have been fooled by that plastered smile.

It’s fine to harbor romantic feelings for Takatori-sensei, who is mourning the loss of a loved one, but dealing with a middle-aged man who doesn’t know how to express his emotions is a troublesome situation.

“What is it?”

“I find talking to Takatori-sensei more enjoyable, so could you please not interrupt me?”

“What!”

“Hey! Mitsurugi!”

“Honestly, there’s no point in taking Kados-sensei’s classes. Can I skip your class and take the music lesson instead? If I recall correctly, with the agreement of two teachers, class changes were allowed, right? If Kados-sensei and Takatori-sensei agree, it can be changed.”

If I gather his hate, I might be able to reduce the mental pain directed towards Takatori-sensei.

After all, Takatori-sensei is my indebted mentor who taught me many things.

I want to be of some help.

“No way I’d agree to that!”

“Huh? Why not? Sensei doesn’t like me anymore, right?”

“A teacher doesn’t make judgments based on whether they like or dislike students!”

I’m sure his guts are boiling inside.

“I see. Teachers are people too. They don’t give points to students they don’t like, right? I’m sure I will have more fun in Takatori-sensei class because she recognizes me.”

People gathered and attention began to gather.

“Mitsurugi, the way you said that wasn’t good! Apologize to Kados-sensei.”

Perhaps I went a bit too far with the provocation? I ended up being scolded by Takatori-sensei.

“That’s certainly true! Kados-sensei, I’m sorry.”

I offered an apology, realizing I had let things get out of hand.

“Well, you’re probably going through adolescence, aren’t you?”

“Yes. That’s why, can we proceed with the change, please?”

“Ugh, alright. I’ll accept it.”

He reluctantly approved, likely due to the sudden apology and the attention from those around us.

“Thank you! I’m really sorry. I spoke out of turn.”

I bowed my head deeply and grinned at the corner of my mouth, making sure no one could see it.

“Hmph, don’t cause trouble for Takatori-sensei.”

“Yes! Thank you, Kados-sensei. I’ll be in your care from now on, Takatori-sensei.”

“Ah, yeah.”

When I lowered my head, I could hear whispers among the students that seemed to sound like Kados had become angry and forced me to apologize.

“Well then, Takatori-sensei, shall we go?”

I gently guided Takatori-sensei by placing my arm around her waist.

“Whaa!”

I heard Kados-sensei’s voice from behind, but I turned back and crafted a smile that only he could see.

Seeing that the discussion was over, the students also dispersed.

In the empty corridor, after keeping some distance, I was scolded.

“Hey, cut it out already putting your arm around my waist! I-I’m not happy about it or anything.”

“Ah, I’m sorry.”

“Really, this isn’t like you at all.”

I hurriedly removed my hand from her waist, and Takatori-sensei folded her arms and showed me a pretentious look.

“Sorry. I just got carried away.”

When I apologized again, Takatori-sensei sighed, as if exhaling to calm herself.

“I don’t know what you’re thinking, but I don’t approve of your attitude towards Kados-sensei earlier. It’s not just about apologizing.”

“I’m sorry.”

“So? Are you really going to change from math to music?”

“Yes, please. I’ve already acquired a sufficient level in math to pass the university entrance exams, so it should be fine.”

In reality, Taketo is excellent and has no problem with first year high school math.

Even if he studies by himself, he will still get good marks.

“Well, if you’re okay with that. But I don’t have a class for the next period.”

“I see. In that case, I’ll skip and go to the old school building.”

“Hey, can a teacher just overlook a student skipping class?! Fine, I’ll supervise you myself!”

“Eh?”

I was surprised that Takatori-sensei was going to follow along.

“I-it’s not like I want to listen to your piano or anything! I’m just monitoring you!”

“I see. Hmm. Hey, Takatori-sensei.”

“What?”

“If Kados-sensei says there is something he would like to discuss with you, would you please send me a message?”

“Huh? What’s that about? Why would I need to do such a thing?”

She gave me a suspicious look, but I didn’t want to explain that I was knowledgeable about the game, so I asked her with a slightly upturned gaze.

“Please? Is it not okay?”

“I-it’s not that it’s not okay?! So, if he said he wanted to discuss something, that’s when I should let you know?”

“Yes!”

Right there, we exchanged contact information on our messaging app.

When I smiled happily, Takatori-sensei let out a deep sigh, showing a tired expression.

“Alright, that’s enough. Let’s go to the old school building!”

“Yes, you’re right.”

I started walking towards the old school building with Takatori-sensei.

When I suddenly looked at the mathematics classroom through the window glass, I saw Kados-sensei looking at me with a face I had never seen before.
