I’ve Been Reincarnated as the Strongest Villain in an NTR Eroge, so I’m Going to Break the Heroines’ Doom Flags on Behalf of the Main Character! - Chapter 28 - Nanami’s New Side

Chapter 28 – Nanami’s New Side

“Alright, Akari! Let’s go to the lazy river pool!”

“Oohhh!”

“Hey, you two! Don’t run!”

Just when you think their energy has died down, the first-year duo got excited and started running. Shiori scolded them strictly for their carefree behavior, just like a guardian would.

“Really…”

“President, could you follow those two? I have a feeling they might cause some trouble.”

“…I agree. Then I’ll leave Nanami to you, Ibuse-kun.”

“…Ehh?! Just me and Ibuse-kun?!”

Nanami, who had been quietly listening up until this point, suddenly spoke up.

“That’s right. That’s why we came here, right?”

“Well… yeah, but…”

“Then it’s fine. Let’s split up for now. See you both later.”

Shiori said, and headed towards Akari and Sakura who were having fun in the lazy river pool.

Like that, Nanami and I were left alone…

“……”

It felt really awkward. We should have gotten closer since we first met, but we were both wearing practically nothing but underwear, so I couldn’t help but be conscious of it.

No matter how hard I tried not to look, my eyes were drawn to Nanami’s cleavage. Nanami, too, gave me glances at my body, then quickly averted them away.

We were left alone so we could talk, but this atmosphere wasn’t good. Realizing this, I quickly scanned the area, looking for a place where we could relax and still enjoy the leisure pool. I found one, and we decided to go there together.

“Wow, I didn’t know they had a place like this…”

“Yeah, me neither. I thought it was all about the attractions.”

We arrived at a large pool with just a small island-like thing floating in the middle. The atmosphere was calmer than the others, and it was perfect for a break.

We decided to enter the pool and lean against the wall to start talking.

“…Honestly, I didn’t expect Kinoshita to want to go to the pool.”

“That’s because… I thought I’d better get used to embarrassing things now…”

“What do you mean?”

“…Remember how I asked the two of you to cosplay at the summer event? I’m nothing compared to cool, beautiful, and confident people like Ibuse-kun and Shiori-chan… So, if I’m going to cosplay too, I thought I should at least get used to being seen…”

“I see…”

Even though she talks down about herself, I personally like Nanami best when she’s in her beautiful mode. Sure, that’s partly because of my sexual preferences, but still, her angelic smile is so cute I can’t forget it.

“…By the way, Kinoshita, what do you think about Miyano… This is confusing. I mean, what do you think about Kaede?”

I decided to ask something that had been on my mind. Nanami never really talked about Kaede, so I wondered what she thought of him.

“…Miyano-kun?”

“Yeah. We’re in the same class. You see him all the time, don’t you?”

I thought she’d be more flustered like with Yoshimoto, but when she heard Kaede’s name, she was surprisingly nonchalant.

“…He’s just a classmate?”

“…That’s it?”

“Yeah… Eh, what… Eh?”

“Wait a second… You’re serious?”

My head was confused by Nanami’s unexpected response. Meanwhile, Nanami had a look on her face like “Of course.”

Sure, even in the game, nothing happens with Nanami unless you talk to her first…

So wait… Does that mean we otakus were misled even in the game? Huh?? How far will the developers go to destroy us Nanami fans???

“Eh… Then what about Yoshimoto…?”

“……Best friend… I guess.”

“!!!!!”

As soon as I mentioned Yoshimoto, Nanami smiled and called him “best friend” with a face I’d never seen before. What is this feeling of defeat and guilt… I feel really sorry for Yoshimoto… I really do… Let’s go out to eat sometime… I’ll treat you as much as you want…

“That’s right! I think Ibuse-kun and Yoshimoto-kun probably will get along well! Yoshimoto-kun also likes Hangan!”

“I-I see…”

Maybe her excitement got the best of her, as she approached me, her big breasts jiggling. Whether she’s unaware or what, I don’t know, but how many fans has this girl killed with this move?!!

As I was frantically trying to look away from Nanami, a big splash suddenly appeared next to her, and the wave hit her directly.

“Bwah!!”

“Ah… I’m so sorry!!! Really… Come on, you should apologize too!!!”

It was an adult woman who apologized so desperately to us as if her life was at stake. The woman was also angry at a boy of elementary school age who had surfaced from where the water had splashed.

“I-I’m so sorry…”

He probably jumped into the pool, and he caused trouble for the company of such a tough-looking man. His mother must be really worried right now.

It’s a good thing it’s me, but it was still dangerous. I thought I would give him a stern warning, but Nanami called out to the boy before I could.

“I’m fine, but that was dangerous, you know? If you jump in, you might get hurt, so can you promise me you won’t do it again?”

“Y-yes…”

Hey, kid, it’s pretty obvious where you’re looking.

“Good. Then promise with Onee-san, okay?”

“Yes… Promise…”

The mother was still bowing to me desperately during that. I felt sorry too, so I replied “It’s fine” with the kindest smile I could.

The mother and child headed away from us to another pool. The kid’s probably going to get a scolding now. Poor thing.

Anyway…

“You seemed pretty experienced there. Do you like kids?”

“Yeah, I do. Actually, I often played with my relatives’ children.”

“Really…? Whoa!!!”

“…What’s wrong?”

When Nanami turned to face me again, I was hit with a shock I hadn’t felt in a long time.

Because she had gotten soaked, her bangs were sticking to her forehead and were split to the sides, revealing her normally hidden face. Moreover, perhaps because she had been in contact with a child, her expression had softened. It was as if an angel had descended from heaven.

If she showed that face while talking to that boy… Well, his preferences for life are probably set now. Poor kid.

“Uh… No, it’s just…”

“???”

What should I do? Should I say it or not? If I did, she’d probably hide her face. That might be best for Nanami, but… I also kind of want to see it a bit longer…

“……Ahhh!!!???”

However, before I could point it out, Nanami realized something was off, and began to brush her bangs back.

“Sorry for showing you something unsightly…”

“No… Not at all…”

We were both so embarrassed that our faces turned bright red, and in the end, we decided to regroup with Shiori and the others.
