Just Being Alive Is Amazing: Starting Life Over in a Chastity-Reversed World - Chapter 184: Cultural Festival Main Event

Chapter 184: Cultural Festival Main Event

“Takuya-sama~ ♡ please wake up~ ♡”

“…Good morning, Moka-san.”

“Yes~ ♡ good morning~ ♡ …chuu ♡ …I’m off to work ♡”

“I’ll come with you…”

“Ehh~ ♡ so cute ♡”

I sit on Moka-san’s bed in her room, watching her change.

She goes from pajamas to underwear, then naked to swap underwear, and puts on her maid outfit.

For me, it’s just stripping and dressing, but women have it tough. Were they talking about night bras the other day? Maybe that’s it.

She brushes out bedhead and applies light makeup, and she’s done.

“D-Don’t stare so much, it’s embarrassing~ ♡”

“I’d be lonely if I left…”

“! ♡ Aww~ ♡ so cute~ ♡ be clingy~ ♡”

Moka-san pats my head against her chest, and after breakfast, I prep in my room.

Today’s the cultural festival main event. With tons of guests, I’ll work hard taking photos.

※

“It’s already a huge line…”

“Yeah…”

After guests start entering the school, there’s time before the shop opens, but our line’s already formed.

“Let’s make today a big success!”

““““Yeah!””””

We psych ourselves up and start calling in guests.

Basically, they take a photo with me, then choose to buy food or leave.

About 80% leave right after, and 20% buy food. Without this ratio, we’d sell out faster.

“Takuya-kun, break time~!”

When I break, the line pauses.

“Takuya ♡ drink water, okay? ♡”

“Thanks, Arisa… feels like I’m a real butler.”

“Ehehe ♡ honored by the praise ♡”

I rest with Arisa in the back, then return to being a photo prop.

“Taku-chan ♡ I’m here ♡”

“Such high quality! ♡”

“It suits you… ♡”

The first family to visit are Mom, Reina-san, and Miki-san. I take photos with each, and they buy food too.

“Then, Taku-chan ♡ do your best ♡”

“Yup…!”

Later, the idol trio shows up at my classroom.

“Takkun, I’m here~ ♡”

“Seira-chan, Hina-no, Umi-chan!”

“You look great~ ♡ do the thing ♡”

“Oh… Welcome back, my lady.”

“““Kyaa~ ♡”””

Satisfied with photos in my butler outfit, the three buy food and leave.

More maids and guards visit too.

I manage to keep taking photos until the festival ends, fulfilling my role.

“Good job, Takuya-kun~ ♡”

“You all too…”

“No way ♡ you worked the hardest ♡”

Yuika-san praises me a ton. Maybe this time I can be proud, like she says.

The announcement declares our class the overwhelming first-place winner, and the class erupts.

“Is there a dress code?”

“It’s school-provided, so uniforms are fine.”

“Not fancy, but no need to prep dresses is nice.”

“Our uniforms are cute, so they’re handy for this~ ♡”

Classmates are already hyped for the hotel buffet afterparty.

“Then, really, good work today~!”

“““Good work~”””

“We got first, sold out food, and had no issues—best results! Thanks, everyone~ ♡”

“““Thanks~”””

Everyone carefully takes their costumes home. They’re well-made, full of memories. I’d be thrilled if my photos are part of that.

“Your butler outfit was wonderful, Takuya-sama ♡♡”

“It’s a bit odd being bowed to so formally by a man like Takuya-sama ♡”

Yui-san and Mei-san are heatedly debating my outfit’s charm.

“I want Taku-chan in all sorts of outfits ♡ How about traditional clothes? ♡”

“Dressing up’s a hassle…”

“Then, we’ll definitely make a suit ♡”

“A suit… I want one…”

“Oh? ♡ Taku-chan wanting something… we’ll get a good one ♡”

“I want to match with Mei-san and them.”

“U-Us too? ♡”

“Yup, let’s make nice ones!”

“S-Such fancy stuff…”

“What? ♡ Is it okay for guards protecting such a great son to dress sloppily? ♡”

“N-No!”

Mom’s words corner both guards instantly.

“Then, three… no, with Reina-san, four ♡ Let’s make suits ♡”

“Yup!”

““Yes…”””

After dinner, I’m chilling in my room with Kaede.

“So glad you didn’t collapse, Takuya~ ♡”

“I had solid breaks…”

My classmates were worried, so I’m glad nothing happened. No harassment issues either.

Our classroom had cameras just for me, so any touch would’ve meant instant arrest.

Probably other guys serving would’ve had cameras too.

Next year, we need a better plan, or I’ll die from overwork. I’m told not to push, but this time I did.

“Yeah… sorry, Takuya… we got too carried away…”

“No, it was fun.”

“Thanks… ♡”

“Your maid outfits were great too.”

“Ehehe ♡ …I’ll wear them more often ♡”

“U-Uh…”

Kaede’s hyped for cosplay sex, ready to buy more outfits.

I want to see, but I’m worried about her money… If it’s for me, I should pay… Is there a good excuse…

“Hey, Kaede.”

“What, Takuya? ♡”

If I boldly ask her to do it, she might jump on it.

“I’ll give you money to buy cosplay with your taste…”

“Mumumu? Takuya’s being considerate, huh?”

“Ugh…”

She saw through me… My clumsy speech won’t fix easily.

“Geez ♡ I earn from modeling, so I’m fine ♡”

“Yup…”

“But, well ♡ having you buy’s nice too ♡”

“Yup…!”

Kaede gets my intent and agrees to let me buy cosplay outfits.

“Then, Takuya ♡ not cosplay, but next time, style my whole look ♡”

“M-Me…?”

“Yup ♡ buy clothes you think are nice! ♡ If I look cute, snap them up! ♡”

“Sounds good… let’s all do it. Might end up similar, but…”

“Nice! ♡ Buy tons of clothes, and we can wear what we like for sex ♡ You love clothed sex, right? ♡”

“Yup…”

“Settled! ♡ Next, window shopping! ♡”

“Got it, let’s date.”

“Yup! ♡ Happy you said ‘date’ ♡ Let’s invite Karen-oneechan and Kirari-chan too ♡ They’d love this ♡”

“Yeah, they’re fashion nuts.”

“Ah~ ♡ Planning fun stuff’s so happy ♡”

“Yup, true… but…”

“But…?”

“Before that, tests, right? For you all.”

“Gah! I was trying to forget!”

Telling Kaede reality makes her protest fiercely.

“I’ll study too, so let’s do it.”

“Fiiine…”

With so many fun events lately, serious tests feel heavy.

“But aren’t sleepovers with everyone fun?”

“True! We’ll do it again ♡”

Kaede’s mood lifts, and we circle back to my fatigue.

“You okay, Takuya? This stuff’s tiring, right?”

“Yup, I’m fine. I’ve got a hot spring trip before tests.”

“Refresh to your heart’s content~ ♡”

“This time, I’ll refresh for myself too…”

“Good ♡”

“Then, Takuya ♡ Refresh Plan 1! How’s some girlfriend cuddling? ♡”

“I’ll take it.”

“Nufufu ♡ honest, I like it… to the bed~ ♡”

Kaede rolls me onto the bed, massaging my back and hips.

The fatigue from standing all day fades, but sleepiness creeps in.

“You tired, Kaede?”

“I’m fine! ♡ I had twice your breaks ♡”

“Got it, then you’re good…”

“Yup! Then, bath time! ♡”

Kaede drags me from the bedroom to the bathroom, and I prep for a bath, half-dozing.

“Takuya~ ♡ I’ll wash you~ ♡”

Totally zoned out, I let Kaede pamper me.

“Takuya~ ♡ gonna kiss you~ ♡”

“Nn… chuu ♡”

Kaede cleans me thoroughly, and I barely manage to dry off before diving into bed.

“Takuya ♡ really, great job ♡”

“Yup… you all too…”

“Yup ♡ goodnight ♡”

“Night…”

Hearing Kaede’s voice, I don’t fight sleep and sink into deep slumber.
