I Was Reincarnated as a Creepy Fat Guy, Then Trained Myself Without Sleep. And Then, for Some Reason, the Heroines Start Approaching Me

Feeling relieved upon hearing Kanna’s voice, I also wrestled with a sense of guilt somewhere deep within.

In her school uniform, she stood with folded arms, wearing a pout on her face.

Somehow, even after a few days, her body seemed to have grown. Smooth black hair, transparent blue eyes. Larger twin mounds approaching Tamaki-san’s size, along with a slender waist and beautiful legs.

Perhaps her regular training at the gym contributed to this.

Normally, I would praise the beauty of her body, but today, our atmosphere wasn’t conducive to such compliments.

Kanna, in her angry state, opened her mouth.

“Why didn’t you say anything to me?”

“…Sorry.”

I hadn’t told Kanna the details, as I wanted to avoid any harm coming to her. It seemed that this was causing frustration for my girlfriend.

“I am your girlfriend, Itsuki! So, tell me everything. Everything you know.”

“…That’s…”

I hesitated, unsure of what I should reveal. As I contemplated whether it was okay to say, she took me by surprise.

“Ah! K-Kanna?”

Suddenly, she kissed me, leaving me with my mouth slightly agape. Kanna then boldly continued speaking.

“Am I just that kind of girl to you?”

“No, Kanna! You’re my precious girlfriend. That’s why I…”

“That’s why you should’ve told me, right?”

“!!!!”

In her unwavering eyes, my figure was vividly reflected. Observing her strong determination, not even blinking, I realized something.

Kanna was not a girl to be treated as a child.

Rather than just wanting to protect her, I should prioritize her feelings.

Supporting her actively was my role.

Really… my way of not contacting her until now was frustrating, but it resembled that guy Hayama in some aspects.

So, I’ll discard that approach.

Because…

“Itsuki, tell me the reason.”

My incredibly cute girlfriend, who understands me, asked.

Taking a deep breath, I explained everything about the circumstances that led to my home suspension to Kanna.

The words Masato said to me.

The conversation in the hidden spot.

And even the story of the homeroom teacher supporting Hayama trying to cover up the incident.

“I see. The situation is worse than I thought!”

“Yeah.”

“Don’t say it as if it’s someone else’s problem.”

“Hahaha.”

“Anyway, what happened to your right cheek?”

Kanna seemed concerned about my swollen cheek, so she pointed at it and asked. I chuckled self-deprecatingly and answered.

“Just got a solid smack from Marin when she came by earlier.”

“Oh! She came here!?”

“Yeah. Well, she vented her anger on me and left right away.”

“Sounds like her.”

“Yeah.”

As I was reminiscing about the earlier events and smiling wryly, Kanna suddenly gently touched my swollen cheek with her well-shaped hand.

“Kanna?”

“Can I ask you something?”

“What is it?”

As she stroked my cheek, Kanna looked at me with teary eyes and a poignant expression, then spoke.

“If, like Hosokawa-kun and Shizukawa-kun, I were attacked by someone, would you protect me, Itsuki?”

Kanna stared at me with a mixture of hope and anxiety in her eyes.

I realized how foolish I had been, struggling with myself all this time. The answer was right in front of me, but my vision had been narrowed by the past of my previous life.

With a sigh, as if saying, “Oh well,” I replied while gently stroking Kanna’s soft head.

“That’s obvious. Anyone trying to make Kanna suffer, like those idiots, will get a beating, just like what happened with Hayama. It’s not just about protecting you. I’ll protect your mother, who gave birth to you, no matter what.”

“Itsuki…”

Suddenly, Kanna’s body tensed up, and she leaned against me in a way that her large chest pressed against me.

“I really can’t do without you, Itsuki…”

“Kanna…”

“This time, I’ll protect you, so… So, give me warmth…”

She wrapped her arms around my back and looked up at me with pleading eyes.

Making Kanna wear such an expression, I felt like a failure as a boyfriend.

Instead of causing her to make such a heartbroken face, I should love Kanna more, aiming for a smile full of allure and eroticism.

Not just possessive love, but genuine love towards her.

Always.

But she’s the main heroine of an erotic manga.

So, a bit of spice was necessary.

I gently pushed her shoulders, distancing myself from her.

Then, I grabbed the massive marshmallow right in front of me.

“Itsuki…”

“Your chest has gotten bigger.”

“Someone was fondling them all the time.”

“That’s true.”

“Itsuki…”

“Kanna…”

I passionately indulged in her body even more than before.

Kanna’s Perspective

Itsuki’s words precisely stimulated Kanna’s heart.

In this world, there are many people with whom words don’t resonate.

Shota falls into that category.

Men who target her mother like predatory beasts, and others who cast inappropriate glances her way—she always felt uneasy.

Until now, she had spent peaceful times with her mother, Tamaki, but she secretly felt the fear that this peace could turn into tragedy.

However,

Now, those negative feelings were completely gone as she walked away from Itsuki’s house, gently stroking her belly.

“Fufu.”

Shota, who had imprisoned her in a cage, was thoroughly beaten by Itsuki.

Violence was wrong.

Of course, she knows this well.

But seeing the man who had bound her for so long being beaten to a pulp by Itsuki, Kanna couldn’t help but laugh.

And she thought,

To help Itsuki.

She formed a triumphant fist with a confident look, but soon her expression started to darken.

“… How can I help him?”

Wondering what she could do for him, Kanna wracked her brain, but no brilliant ideas came to mind. Lost in thought and wearing a troubled expression as she walked through the residential area, her phone suddenly rang.

Kanna quickly took out her phone and checked the screen.

[Yumi Tatsuzaki]

“Yumi!?”

Kanna answered the call.

“Hello?”

[Kanna, are you busy right now?]

“Nah, I’m fine. What’s up?”

[We need to talk to you, Kanna.]

“Talk?”

[Yeah, it’s okay if it’s today or anytime after. Where are you now?]

“Yumi! Where are you guys?”

[… We’re at our usual café.]
