Striving to Become the Ideal Man in a World of Reversed Chastity - Chapter 19: This Is What Happens When You Talk About Naughty Things in Public ③

“Could it be… that you’re threatening me?”

“Hmm, who knows?”

Sakurai-san smirked and played dumb. As I watched that fearless smile of hers…

(This is nothing but a golden opportunity!)

I kept thinking about how I could turn this into an intimate situation with Sakurai-san. I mean, my pervy radar was going off the charts! This girl was definitely erotic! And on top of that, she probably had a lot of experience, right?

(I mean, if I want to graduate from being a virgin in the best way possible, isn’t asking Sakurai-san the smartest choice?)

While having these incredibly sleazy thoughts, I faced Sakurai-san. (A virgin is always faithful to their desires.)

“But you know, Kurahashi-kun, if everyone found out that a serious guy like you was doing such indecent things, wouldn’t that be a big problem?”

“Huh? A problem…?”

“Yeah, that’s right. I’m just worried about you, you know? Besides, if the teachers found out, wouldn’t it affect your grades? You’re such a diligent honor student, after all. If that happened, your reputation would take a hit.”

“Ah, ahh… I see?”

Yeah, no, this was 100% a threat. If this were a scene straight out of a doujin, I’d be turning pale and saying, “Please, I’ll do anything” right about now.

(But honestly, I have no intention of pretending to be serious, so I don’t care if my reputation tanks.)

To be honest, I couldn’t care less about how others saw me. Besides, if I tried to keep up the act of being a serious student in this reversed world, I’d probably explode from pent-up desire. I’d rather live honestly, embracing my instincts, than die pretending to be virtuous.

So, Sakurai-san’s threat was completely ineffective against me… But if giving in would lead to something intimate, then that was a different story.

“By the way, I have a question.”

“Hmm? What is it?”

“Why were you eavesdropping on my conversation with Kashima-san?”

I asked the most obvious question first. Without breaking her smile, Sakurai-san answered, “Hmm? Because Chika seemed to be having fun.”

“Wait, that’s really the only reason?”

“Yup. But then I heard you talking about going to a love hotel with her. That sounded interesting, so I ended up eavesdropping, ahaha.”

Without a hint of remorse, she laughed exaggeratedly. But I had a feeling she was doing that on purpose—to make me feel uneasy.

“Ahaha, but you know, even though you made plans to sleep with Chika… she’s a total virgin, you know? If you go through with it, you probably won’t enjoy it at all.”

“?! A-ah, r-really…?”

Hearing such an explicit statement from a girl made me freeze up. Ah, I see… so this is the reversed world… No, but seriously, this world was way too erotic! It was amazing!

“That’s why, Kurahashi-kun… You should carefully choose who you do it with.”

“Huh?! W-wait…!”

As she spoke, she touched my hand—then slowly intertwined her fingers with mine. It was just like the way lovers held hands.

Wait, what the hell? This is too damn erotic!

“…Fufu. So, Kurahashi-kun… You wouldn’t want everyone to find out that you’re the kind of guy who does naughty things with a girl who isn’t his girlfriend, right?”

With her fingers still entwined with mine, Sakurai-san repeated her threat.

(No, there’s no need to threaten me, I’m already willing to submit, Sakurai-sa—no, Ane-san!)

My mind was already made up. If it meant getting into an intimate situation with Ane-san, I’d do anything!

“So… If I asked you to keep quiet about this, what would I have to do?”

“Eh? Oh, no need to worry! I won’t tell anyone~”

“Huh?! R-really…?”

“Yup. I mean, even as a joke, if I asked for something in return… that would actually make it a real threat, right? And blackmail is a crime, you know? Ahaha~”

“A-ahh, I see…”

For a second, I felt disappointed when she said she wouldn’t tell anyone, but I quickly realized that wasn’t the case. This gyaru was actually pretty sharp. If she outright demanded something, it would technically become a crime.

“But you know… if you were the one to take the initiative and do something, I’d be open to anything~”

“W-wait, really?!”

Wait, did she just say “anything”?! There’s no better moment to make my move!
