I, Who Acquired the Ability to Read Memories, Am Being Swallowed by Darkness - While I Should Be Protecting Beautiful Girls, I Am Being Drawn into Darkness Each Time I Use My Power, Yet for Some Reason, My Harem of Beautiful Girls Keeps Growing - Chapter 35: Becoming Third-Year Students
Chapter 35: Becoming Third-Year Students
“Let’s talk,” Reiko suggested.
After checking out of the resort hotel, the four of us stopped by a café.
“We need to share time with Ryuuji-kun fairly.”
Misaki opened her planner. As the student council president, her schedule management was impeccable.
“Can I have Mondays?” Reiko asked hesitantly.
“I’ll take Tuesdays since student council work ends early…” Misaki continued.
“I’ll take Wednesdays… after volleyball practice is fine.” Ryoko added.
“What about Thursdays?”
“Yeah, the third Thursday of the month is reserved for something else.”
The rehabilitation program for those three. A promise that couldn’t be easily broken.
“And Fridays?”
Misaki’s piano lessons. Another relationship that still needed to continue.
“Weekends, if our schedules align, we’ll spend them together.”
Like yesterday, creating memories as a group.
“But with club activities and student council…”
“Yes, schedules will be flexible.”
“But this is the basic plan.”
Monday: Time with Reiko
Tuesday: Time with Misaki
Wednesday: Time with Ryoko
Thursday: Monthly meeting with Sagara and the others
Friday: Piano lessons
Weekends: Together if possible
“Is this fair?”
“Yeah, no one will feel lonely.”
“We can share Ryuuji-kun among us.”
A schedule to share me among the three of them.
An unusual relationship.
But this was our form of happiness.
“Then it’s settled.”
“I’ll definitely keep it.”
“These are our rules.”
The four of us quietly made our promise.
The dazzlingly happy days passed in the blink of an eye.
Seasons changed, and we advanced to our third year of high school.
Mondays were study sessions with Reiko.
In the luxurious study of the Shirogane household, she taught me ancient Japanese and English.
“Ryuuji-kun’s grades have really improved.”
Even Reiko’s father, whom I occasionally met, was pleased to see his daughter so lively.
Tuesdays were self-study sessions with Misaki.
In a corner of the library, we solved math problems together.
Under the meticulous guidance of the student council president, my weaknesses were steadily overcome.
The Sakurai family also began looking forward to my visits.
Wednesdays were with Ryoko after volleyball practice.
Between club activities, we worked on problem books together.
At the Hayami household, even her younger sister, Hinata-chan, had grown fond of me, calling me “Ryuuji-oniichan.”
“I never thought Reiko, who was so unstable, would become so stable.”
Reiko’s mother commented.
“Seeing my daughter smile more makes me truly happy.”
Misaki’s parents also said,
“Ryoko has become so energetic.”
Even Ryoko’s parents remarked,
“We’re so glad to see her like this.”
Every household welcomed me warmly.
It was because they saw how happy their daughters were.
“Ryuuji, what’s with you lately? You’ve been working so hard.”
Even my own parents were surprised by my improved grades.
In our third year, we were in different classes.
But after-school time gently enveloped us.
“Satou-kun.”
At school, that’s how we addressed each other.
But sometimes, our true feelings almost slipped out.
In the student council room with Misaki.
“This problem… oh, Ryuuji-kun… I mean, Satou-kun.”
Her flustered correction made me smile.
At the gym with Ryoko.
“Ry… Satou-kun, I’m glad you’re here to watch.”
Her hands holding the volleyball trembled slightly.
In the music room with Reiko.
“This piece… Satou… sorry, I got too into it.”
Her elegant melody soothed my heart.
In each place,
sharing each moment,
we grew little by little.
From the outside, it seemed like they were tutoring me.
With my improved grades, people envied me, but no one suspected we were dating.
Given their beauty and my monstrous appearance, no one could imagine it.
And during our after-school study sessions, we sometimes found ourselves alone.
“Ryuuji-kun, more… please…”
In the student council room.
Misaki’s voice made my heart race.
But footsteps approached from the hallway.
She quickly changed her tone.
“Oh, Satou-kun! These documents are for the next general meeting…”
“That was close.”
Misaki whispered, laughing.
“But your surprised face was cute.”
Moments alone together.
“Ryuuji-kun, harder… please…”
Behind the gym, in the bushes.
Our secret training time.
A place where no one would come.
“Ryoko… um…”
“Ah! Someone’s coming!”
“Satou-kun, thanks for helping with my training.”
Ryoko quickly changed her tone.
A club member passed by.
We both sighed in relief.
“Silly.”
Ryoko laughed in the bushes.
“It’s thrilling, isn’t it?”
“Ryuuji-kun, I’m cumming!”
In the empty music room.
Our secret time with Reiko.
At the sound of footsteps in the hallway, we quickly distanced ourselves.
“Shirogane-san, this sheet music…”
“Thank you, Satou-kun.”
Once the person outside passed by,
“Phew…”
We both sighed in relief.
“Ryuuji-kun.”
Reiko whispered.
“I think I like this kind of thing.”
