Chapter 4: The Three Great Beauties and the Cafeteria
We arrived at the cafeteria. Thanks to Kozuki-san’s guidance, we didn’t get lost.
Since it was daytime, the cafeteria of the Dark Medical Academy was crowded.
Though many people were rushing around, one particular table stood out.
They were waving at us. Kozuki-san waved back and quickly headed toward them.
“Sorry to keep you waiting!”
Two girls stood up at the same time. Kozuki-san exchanged a high-five with them.
“You’re late! We were getting tired of waiting.”
“Yu-chan, don’t say that.”
“But, didn’t you feel the stares when we were doing nothing?”
“I’m already used to it. It happens all the time, right?”
I just stood there, watching the exchange, bewildered.
“Sorry, Issei-kun. We got too excited with just our own group.”
“Well, that can’t be helped. It’s not like a newcomer can be treated the same, right?”
The two girls, other than Kozuki, turned their gaze toward me.
No doubt about it.
These were the other two of the Three Great Beauties.
Ruriko was the first one.
“Oh, the latecomer duo, huh? Heh heh, did you have fun yesterday?”
The second one.
She was a straightforward beauty, Asai Yu.
She had short hair and a sharp expression. She was tall, clearly the sporty type, and had a somewhat androgynous charm.
“Don’t be mean to Shimizu-kun. It’ll only be a reward for him.”
This must be the third one, Kanai Kana.
She gave an impression of being neat and quiet. She gave off a mysterious aura.
“Yeah, it might be a reward. They say all boys have a bit of an M side, after all.”
“Please don’t include me in that category.”
“Oh, a rebuttal? Do you not know who we are? The Three Great Beauties?”
Did she just say that herself? That thought crossed my mind.
“As I explained earlier, this is Yu and Kana. They’re my important friends.”
With Ruriko, Yu, and Kana, the Three Great Beauties were complete.
Seeing the real deal up close, the aura they radiated was incredible. They influenced each other, raising each other’s presence.
It felt out of place for me to be among them.
In fact, the stares around us were somewhat cold.
Why is that guy with them?
A boy’s presence among the Three Great Beauties?
I could almost hear such whispers. Whether they were actually saying it or not, I could feel the suspicious gazes.
“Kozuki-san, is it alright if I sit with you?”
“Of course it is. Issei-kun is an important classmate of mine, after all. Right?”
Yu and Kana nodded in agreement.
“See? There’s no reason it should be a problem. Let’s just ignore everyone else and enjoy our meal.”
“Yeah, you’re right. Well then, let’s go order.”
At this point, only Kozuki-san and I had yet to order.
We lined up at the ticket machine and got our meal tickets.
I looked at the menu. I already knew what I was going to choose.
“I’ll go with the ‘Darkness Dark Curry.'”
“Of course, huh? It’s the specialty of the Dark Medical Academy, after all.”
In this story (?!) “The Most Dangerous Yandere Academy”, there’s a scene where the cafeteria meals are featured.
One of them is the “Darkness Dark Curry.”
It’s characterized by a black sauce that makes you wonder if it has squid ink in it. I’ve heard the taste isn’t that bad, though.
This is just information from the protagonist’s monologue. It’s subjective.
To know if it’s really good, I’ll have to check it with my own taste buds.
“I think I’ll go with the Dark Curry too. It’s a bit spicy and makes your mouth tingle, though.”
“Don’t push yourself too hard.”
“I’ll be fine. I’m strong.”
Curry is served quicker than other dishes, so we returned to our seats without waiting too long.
“Ah, you’re matching. I get it now.”
“Yu-chan, you always bring up romance so quickly. We just chose what we wanted to eat.”
“I wonder what the real story is? I’m curious.”
Yu’s eagerness was very obvious.
She had a proactive attitude when it came to romance too, I remembered.
Normally, Yu is somewhat masculine and reliable, but when the protagonist is in front of her, she suddenly shows a feminine side.
Even so, her assertiveness never disappears. Her approach is refreshing, though she’s still a yandere.
“Issei-kun looks troubled. Stop teasing him already.”
“Okay, okay. Kana really is the best at stopping things.”
“Ugh… the runaway train is a handful…”
Kana doesn’t appear in the original, but she fit right in. There was a reassuring feeling between Yu and Kana, like a well-coordinated veteran duo.
“If we keep talking, the day will end. Let’s eat already.”
When Kozuki-san spoke, the two of them quickly switched into eating mode.
“Let’s eat.”
Yu had bukkake udon, and Kana had soba. Both chose noodle dishes.
Kozuki-san began eating. She didn’t seem to react much to the spiciness.
She scooped some curry with her spoon. It had a distinct presence.
Now, to eat.
I took a bite.
The sweetness of the melted vegetables and the flavor of the spices were good.
Could this be the best curry?
“…Huh?”
After swallowing, my impression completely changed.
The “Darkness Dark Curry” was spicier than expected. The spiciness started doing a tap dance in my throat.
“Ho-hot!?”
I couldn’t help but cough. I quickly gulped some water.
“Are you okay? Was it really that spicy?”
“Kozuki-san, you’re into spicy food, huh?”
“It’s you, Issei-kun, who has a baby’s palate. It’s so weak, it’s pathetic.”
Yu seemed to want to tease me badly.
“Shut up.”
“How rude~.”
“Yu, he really does look like he’s struggling. Help him out.”
“Okay.”
To stop my coughing, Yu gently patted my back. Kana encouraged me with words.
My cup was quickly empty. Kozuki-san, possibly noticing, handed me her cup.
I didn’t care about anything anymore and gulped it down.
“Phew, that helped… I wonder if it was okay to drink from Kozuki-san’s cup?”
“I hadn’t drunk from it, so it’s fine. Even if I had, it’s not something to worry about, right?”
“Some people might mind, though.”
To others, it looked like I was being served by the Three Great Beauties.
Especially from the boys, I could clearly feel the envy and jealousy.
The authority of the Three Great Beauties is overwhelming.
“If you can’t eat it, I’ll eat it for you,” Yu suggested.
“Yu-chan, you’re a small eater. Don’t force it.”
“Tch.”
“Then I’ll eat it. The latecomer duo, after all.”
“Sorry, Kozuki-san.”
“Well then, should you continue struggling with this spicy curry?”
“…”
“Then it’s decided. I’ll just eat the sauce.”
As a guy, it wouldn’t look good to have to rely on Kozuki-san to finish the Dark Curry.
“Wow. You’re bad with spice but still try the Dark Curry. I guess you really have an M side.”
“Just shut up.”
“Okay, okay.”
Seeing this, Kana giggled. There was probably a hint of cold laughter in her expression.
The first encounter with the Three Great Beauties didn’t exactly end on a high note.
