Reincarnated as the Legitimate Son of a Duke Family's ~ Just Trying To Live Live My Life Normally, But Somehow I've Got a Harem?~ - Chapter 32 : Absurdity

As I was lost in the thoughts of the past, I couldn’t even notice when I arrived at the sports field.

I quickly changed and got ready, then after doing some stretching I stood on the tennis court.

My opponent this time is Merle, with Serena acting as her assistant.

“Alex~! Are you ready?”

“Yeah, anytime.”

I lowered my stance slightly and twirled the racket with both hands.

…It doesn’t really mean anything.

I just thought it might look cool…!

“Merle-san, give it your all.”

“I-Is that okay?”

“Yes, it’s fine.”

“O-Okay, here I go!”

Just as I was about to hit the ball—before I knew it, it had passed right by my side.

“…Huh? Isn’t that too fast!?”

“Hehe~. Well, yes. That’s what I’ve been teaching her diligently. She’s become quite the promising newcomer.”

“Fufu, it’s because Serena-san’s way of teaching is good!”

“No, it’s your skill. I never expected a beastman’s abilities to be this high.”

Indeed, the speed of the ball right now is abnormal.

My high school had a pitcher who threw at 150 kilometers per hour, but this speed was clearly faster.

The people who trained their physical strength can exceed 200 kilometers, but this speed is not something you’d expect from a girl.

“I-It’s amazing.”

“What about you, how fast are you when you go all out?”

“…Alright, let’s give it a shot.”

“Oh, that’s rare.”

“I told you… I’m going to get a little serious.”

“Alright then, here I go!”

She tossed the ball high, and a serve that arcs through the air came at me at full speed!

I predicted where the ball would hit and I approached that area swiftly.

The ball I hit bounced off in the opposite direction, helping me score a point.

“Hmph, not bad.”

“Grr… I’m so frustrated!”

“Well, you should scowl and say ‘I’m frustrated!’ or something like that.”

“Huh?”

“Uh, sorry.”

Oh no, my habits from my past life are starting to show again.

Well, at least I returned the ball.

I might not be the real Prince of Tennis, but I tried my best!

“As expected of the son of the legendary hero Siegfried. Yes, you’ve always been cheeky. Skillful at everything… for some reason, that’s getting on my nerves too.”

“Hey? Don’t call me cheeky. And why are you holding a racket too?”

I have a really bad feeling about this.

Why are you grinning like that?

“Fufu~, I wonder why? Merle-san! No need to hold back! Let’s do this together!”

“I-Is that okay?”

“Well, there’s always a gap in strength between boys and girls. Having a handicap like this is fine.”

“I protest! That’s gender discrimination!”

“Shut up! Just take it quietly!”

“Ugh?!”

Tennis balls kept coming one after another, and I desperately returned them somehow.

“Merle-san!”

“Yes!”

“Ugh?!”

On their side, they took turns, so they returned the ball with ease.

Meanwhile… I ran around the court desperately, doing nothing but returning the balls.

I wanted to have a refreshing sports experience… How did it come to this?
