Chapter 57 – Realization [Tatemiya Yuushi’s POV]

[Tatemiya Yuushi’s POV]

I was completely defeated in the test showdown that I initiated, and Mitsurugi didn’t even say anything, as if he’d forgotten about me.

“Tatemiya, starting August, I’ll need to undergo training at my family’s temple. My grandfather is the head priest. If you’re okay with it, would you like to come over during that time?”

I don’t want to spend the entire summer break just focused on karate!

“No, I have to earn money to pay for my studies, so I’m thinking of working part-time during the summer break.”

“I see. I don’t know how much you can earn in about a month, but do your best. There’s no karate club activities during the summer break, but make sure to train in the mornings.”

“Yes!”

In my promise with Mitsurugi, I was told not to have romantic or impure thoughts toward girls. But I don’t know how to uphold such an ambiguous promise.

Currently, I haven’t approached any girls other than Saruwatari Gorimi-senpai, but determining whether my actions and gaze are impure is difficult.

Actually, I want a girlfriend.

I failed with Toranomon Akemi.

Ryuoin Yukine was a lost cause from the start.

Since Hitsujigaoka Momo only came to Tojo Academy for high school, our childhood friendship has faded, and we’re no longer close friends.

Because of the test results, I can no longer approach Ushiumi Kurumi.

Up until now, I have repeatedly failed.

And all of this is because of my involvement with Mitsurugi.

He really is a jinx for me.

But I don’t think I’m going to try to capture the teachers from here, and I don’t think I’ll be able to get my hands on Inukai Nazuna and Nekono Mimi, who have become Mitsurugi’s followers, combined with the promise of a test.

So, when I thought of a way to naturally interact with girls other than the students at my school without having to date them, I thought a part-time job would be the only option.

“Speaking of part-time jobs, it has to be the Shisitei. There should be a beautiful mother and daughter duo there. The shy and innocent Shisitei Sayoko, the energetic girl Shisitei Ino, and their mother, the very youthful loli-baba Shisitei Shiina. I have a promise with Mitsurugi not to have impure feelings, but if I have pure feelings, there shouldn’t be any problems.”

Yes, as long as I work part-time with pure feelings and fall in love with pure feelings, there should be no problem.

“Doukan-sensei. I have a favor to ask of you!”

“Oh Tatemiya, what’s wrong?”

“I would like to have a part-time job, so could you please give permission?”

“Hmm? But you’re in the karate club, right? Are you okay with your club activities?”

“Yes. Saruwatari-senpai also gave permission.”

“In that case, I’ll give you permission. Here’s a part-time job recommended by the school.”

At Tojo Academy, the teachers can introduce you to a part-time job.

The Shisitei cafe should be among them…

Or so I thought!

“Sensei! There’s no part-time job at the Shisitei cafe!”

“Hmm? Shisitei? Ah, the sweets shop run by that Shisitei Sayoko’s family. Indeed, there were openings at the beginning of summer, but they closed applications because the positions were filled.”

“What?! I wanted to work there too. Sensei, can’t you do something about it?”

“Do something, huh…”

“Kanja-sensei.”

Doukan-sensei’s shoulders twitched.

This PE teacher named Doukan is in love with the chemistry teacher, Kanja-sensei.

If I take advantage of that, he’ll listen to my requests.

“I’ll also tell Kanja-sensei about how manly Doukan-sensei is and how amazing his muscles are.”

“Yaahh!!!”

Please stop suddenly standing up and striking a pose.

Or rather, aren’t there a lot of muscular people around me? Both Saruwatari-senpai and my advisor, Doukan-sensei, are really muscular.

“All right. Take this letter of introduction from me. In return, I’m counting on you regarding the matter with Kanja-sensei!”

“Yes, of course.”

I don’t know how effective what I say will be though.

After getting the letter of introduction, I immediately went to Shisitei.

I happened to find Sayoko cleaning in front of the shop.

“Hey! You are Shisitei Sayoko, right?”

“Yes? Um, you are…Tatemiya-san?”

“You know about me? I’m so happy. Actually, I also wanted to work part-time at your sweet shop, so I brought this letter of introduction.”

When I handed over Doukan-sensei’s letter of introduction, Sayoko looked at me with a surprised look on her face.

This child has the attribute of liking handsome men.0

In other words, being a handsome man myself, I hit the bullseye with her taste.

Kukuku, if it was going to be this easy, I should have chosen this girl from the beginning.

“Well…”

“Yeah?”

She gave me a puzzled look and handed me back the letter of introduction.

“I’m sorry. We already have a part-time worker, so we can’t hire any more people at our shop.”

“What! B-but, it’s me!”

I’m the handsome man you adore.

“I don’t know Tatemiya-san’s situation, but we are doing this as a business too, so I’m sorry. Besides… Tatemiya-san doesn’t have a good reputation, and we’d rather avoid any bad publicity for the shop and family. I’m sorry, but please go back.”

“……”

What is she saying? Isn’t Mitsurugi Taketo the one with the most bad reputation?

It can’t be me! I’m good at studying, handsome, and kind to women…

Huh? Mitsurugi Taketo got a perfect score in the test, is handsome, and is always surrounded by women, while I lost in the test, and although I am handsome as well, there are no women by my side… Do I really have a bad reputation?

“Please go back!”

I was told once again, and I turned my back and started walking away.

I just realized it now! Did I make a mistake somewhere? Did I somehow end up in the worst scenario where all the heroines in the game hate me?

In that case, there is no way to recover.

The only option left is to appeal that I’m a good person and search for a girl who will confess to me in these three years.

Fortunately, I realized this while I was still a first year student.

“From today onwards, I will become a better person!”

That’s it. If I’m disliked, I just need to improve my likability.

It’s a good thing I realized this today.

I did shed a few tears, though…

Bang!

“Ouch!”
