It's a Chastity-Reversed World, But It's Different From What I Imagined? - 99

Chapter 99: The Sports Festival: Pole Toppling Part 1

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

At the last minute, due to Youhei’s request, the order of the singing performances was changed.

Originally, the plan had been to start the morning with a dance to get everyone hyped up, but we decided to start with a song.

“Freedom, let’s go!”

That didn’t sound like the kind of song you’d normally sing first thing in the morning, but even Seiya and Hayato said.

“Today is your day. No doubt about it.”

“That’s right, Yoru. Let’s change the formation so you’re in the center for the dance today.”

The dance was usually centered around Hayato. But with all three of them pushing me, I ended up being the main performer today.

“Well, whatever.”

Thanks to Tae-san, I was in a good mood today. Then all I had to do was give it my all.

【Listen to my song!!】

My voice, my mood, my body… Everything felt great today. The girls who’d gathered were all focused on me. It felt amazing. Yeah, that’s right. I’d wanted to come to a world where the concept of chastity was reversed. In my original world, I had a weak body and hardly ever got a chance to talk properly with girls. In this world filled with strong-willed girls, I wanted to grasp happiness for myself.

【My one and only cute little kitten】

During the instrumental break, I showed off the acrobatics I’d practiced during training camp. Normally, I left the center spot to Hayato, but today, I was the star. Then, I spotted Yuuna on the field.

My feelings toward Yuuna…I still had a lingering sense of betrayal, but since she was my precious childhood friend and a beautiful girl, there was only one thing I could think.

【You belong to me!!!】

If I was the one who’d driven Yuuna crazy, then I had to take responsibility. If I was going to eat poison, I might as well devour the entire dish!!! I poured every ounce of energy into my performance today. I sang and danced at full power straight through until the pole toppling event that would begin in the afternoon.

“And now, as the sports festival reaches its climax, we’ll begin the highlight of Aoba High’s festival, the pole toppling event! The rules are simple: whichever team topples the opponent’s pole wins. Simple! But it requires strategy, tactics, strength, speed, and teamwork! It’s the ultimate competition!!!”

GYO’s shout echoed across the field.

“The question is, will the twin beasts of Sports Class 1-A, who won the dodgeball tournament on the first day, prevail again? Or will the ‘Oni’ and the ‘Mermaid’ from Sports Class 1-B go wild this time? Or perhaps advanced study 1-A, which has maintained a solid third place so far, will crush the two sports classes?!”

“Other classes are also aiming for a comeback by defeating the higher-ranked teams.”

“Yes, the class that wins this pole toppling match still has a chance to make a comeback overall.”

Three advanced study classes, three general study classes, and three sports classes, a total of nine teams, appeared on the field and began the battle.

“The first match of the first round features advanced study 1-A! How will the other classes respond?”

Pole toppling had seven participants per team, divided into offense and defense. Teams could even form temporary alliances against stronger opponents. The strategies were flexible, but the strategy 1-A took was extremely simple.

“Oh! Class 1-A has Asuka Kuramine holding the pole all by herself. In front of her stands Tsuyu Zashiki, the transfer student who joined this semester. Looks like they’re abandoning defense to focus on offense.”

“Asuka Kuramine ranked first in the entrance exams, with excellent athletic ability and a gifted physique. She was the one who achieved the upset victory over Sports Class 1-B in the dodgeball tournament!”

“And the other one, Zashiki… She’s just cute. Really tiny and cute. That’s all I can say.”

Since 1-A was up, I cheered with all my strength. I wished for them to win, even just a little. Maybe that wish reached them, because 1-A’s furious assault began.

“Whoa!!! Player Zashiki from 1-A is incredible! She tears into oncoming opponents, throwing them aside, blocking attacks, and sending anyone who gets close flying! No one can get past her defensive line!”

“It seems she’s a master of Aikido. She’s using her opponents’ strength against them. Despite her small frame, she’s overwhelming other teams.”

“Meanwhile, look at player Ichika Mimori! She was thought to be a bookish girl, but she ranked second in the entrance exams, and her movements are beast-like! She’s using all four limbs to slip past defenders and topple the enemy poles one after another!”

While the four other offensive members distracted the defenders, Ichika repeatedly approached the pole and knocked it down. Since the pole wasn’t supported by all seven players, one or two people could knock it down fairly easily once they learned the trick.

“Mimori on offense and Zashiki on defense—1-A is too strong!!”

“A rugby player from Sports Class 1-D is making a wide detour around Zashiki and charging toward Kuramine!!”

“With all the other teams defeated, it’s now a one-on-one showdown between advanced study 1-A and sport class 1-D!”

I shouted with all my might. As if responding to my voice, Tsuyu and Ichika moved at the exact same moment.

“Whoa!!!! Was that teleportation?! Zashiki, who had been holding the defensive line, just appeared right in front of Kuramine!!!”

“It’s not teleportation. Since there were no more attackers, she simply returned to guard the pole.”

Tsuyu easily threw the 170cm rugby club member, and Ichika toppled 1-D’s pole. Both of them turned toward me and bowed at the same time.

“You’re the best. 【My one and only cute little kittens.】”

Tsuyu shyly squirmed her body, expressing her joy. As for Ichika… She fainted, nose bleeding.
