The Kansai Villain’s Rebirth: I Accidentally Ended Up With a Harem. - Chapter 33: The Protagonist Begins To Daydream.

The Protagonist Begins To Daydream.

Imamiya Toshiya’s POV.

“Ahhh! Damn it! I actually said it! I told Rinko and Mio they should just get screwed by Tennouji or something! What the hell was I thinking!?”

I was pacing around my room, drowning in regret. Rinko was definitely pissed off back there… crap, this is bad. What am I supposed to do now…?

“W-wait, hold on. The whole thing about studying with Tennouji… that’s still just an assumption, right?”

Yeah. I only thought they were having a study session with him. It wasn’t confirmed. Neither Rinko nor Mio ever said they were going to Tennouji’s house specifically. Right! They definitely didn’t say that!

Still, it’s obvious those three have gotten close with Tennouji lately.

And it’s not just them—our classmates too. They used to avoid Tennouji like he was contagious back at the start of the second term, but now? Just because he performed a little during the ball game tournament, suddenly everyone’s all buddy-buddy with him again. Unbelievable. What are they even thinking? Are they brain-dead? Letting their guard down like that—he’ll drag them into trouble for sure.

A while back, I even heard about some basketball guys from another school saying they saw someone who looked like Tennouji hanging around with three sketchy dudes, hitting on high school girls and saying crap like “Let’s go to a hotel.” See? I knew it. He totally seems like that kind of guy. The type who thinks with his crotch instead of his brain. No way anyone should be hanging around with a guy like that!

But… what if—just what if—Mio and the others actually did go to Tennouji’s house…?

Oh no… oh no no no no no…

“Alright, let’s study for the test, shall we? Today’s subject is health education. With three of you here, I reckon we can learn about all sorts of differences firsthand.”

“Tennouji-kun…! How could you!? We trusted you!”

“You really are the worst kind of man…”

“Well, can’t blame me if you were the ones dumb enough to trust me. Anyway, let’s get started with this practical health lesson, shall we?”

“Daiki-kun… n-no! Please, stop! Help me—Toshiya-kun!”

“Imamiya? He ain’t comin’. Now then, let’s begin with the structure of the human body…”

“Yessir!”

“And after that, we’ll move on to baby-making practice. Hands-on experience, of course.”

“No! Noooo! Toshiya-kun, help meeee!!”

“Imamiya-kun…!!”

“““KYAAAAAAA!!!”””

***

Damn it!!! That bastard Tennouji really is the worst!! No—wait, wait. Maybe he’s still pretending to be innocent for now. Maybe he’s just biding his time… keeping that mask on. If that’s true, then he’ll probably show his true colors after the exams.

When the tests end… Tennouji’s definitely gonna bomb them. No question. The guy’s an idiot. Even with Rinko trying her best to help him, he’ll probably snap when he fails—

***

“What is the meaning of this!?”

“Fuyuki-san… this ain’t good. Thanks to you, I ended up with a failing grade.”

“It’s not my fault! You’re the one who didn’t study properly!”

“Nah, your teaching was the problem. So, to make up for it… I’ll give the three of you a special lesson.”

“S-special lesson?”

“Health education. This time, I’ll show you how babies are made.”

“W-what…!? You can’t mean—!?”

“Come on, even Natsume-san gets it, right? You’re high schoolers. You know what I mean. We’ll start with some hands-on practice.”

“N-no…! Toshiya-kun! Help me!!”

“Imamiya ain’t coming. Now then, I’ll take Fuyuki-san for the demo. The rest of you, pick whoever you like. Let’s start our lesson.”

“Nooo! Toshiya-kun!!”

“Ugh… ughhhh!”

“““KYAAAAAA!!!”””

DAMN IT!!!! Tennouji, you absolute scumbag!!! I swear, I’m gonna punch your face in!! I can’t stand this bastard!!! How could anyone expect me to get along with him!? And Shina too—what the hell is she thinking getting all close to that creep!? Idiot gal… still, that outfit of hers… god, it’s way too hot. Damn it… what the hell am I even thinking?

sigh …Anyway, yeah. There’s no way they’d actually study with Tennouji. No way. But if they come to school on Monday looking all miserable… nah, it can’t be. It’s gonna be fine. Everything’s fine…

[In-game chat]

Strongest⭐️DoiKING: Oi, Toshiya. There’s this hella annoying base. Wanna raid it?

Strongest!ShunYoung: Ohhh, nice, nice! I’m in! Takii’s coming?

Strongest⭐️DoiKING: Yup, he’s on. Let’s gooo! We’re pulling an all-nighter!

Strongest!ShunYoung: LOL what about exams, dumbass!?

Strongest⭐️DoiKING: Bro, you already know the answer 😂😂😂 let’s goooo!

Haah… these idiots, man. Well, whatever. They can’t win a raid without me anyway!

Crap. I barely studied all weekend. We were gaming till like two in the morning last night, and I’m dead tired… but exams start today. No time to sleep.

“Oh yeah, Mio, did anything happen on Saturday?”

“Saturday? Ah, the study session? Yeah, we got a lot done.”

She didn’t sound weird or anything. So, that means… she didn’t go to Tennouji’s place after all. Thank god.

“I-I see. Well, you know, if something ever happens—if you’ve got a problem or someone’s bothering you—you can talk to me, okay?”

“??? Sure.”

Jeez, could she sound any less interested? I’m trying to look out for her, you know! Like, what if Tennouji said something gross or tried something—

“Hey, uh, Mio. Wanna hit up Mk’s for lunch?”

“MickDonal—? Ah, sorry. I brought lunch today. Rinko and I are studying with the others again after class.”

“What—seriously…?”

Come on! I was gonna eat with them for the first time in ages. Maybe even have her help me with my notes… oh crap, I’ve got that raid with Doi and the guys after school. Whatever, Tennouji won’t be there anyway.

****

Ugh, today’s English test was a disaster… I’m doomed. Like, actual doom. Could be a failing grade. Damn it, I shouldn’t have gamed with those idiots! Tomorrow’s world history… I’ll cram all night if I have to! And crap, classical Japanese too…

[Chat]

Strongest!ShunYoung: Rinko, I need your help!

Rin: With what?

Strongest!ShunYoung: My classical Japanese’s a total mess. Can you tutor me a bit?

Rin: Didn’t you say during the last study session that classics were fine? I’m studying at a friend’s place tonight, so I can’t. Sorry.

Strongest!ShunYoung: Huh!? No, seriously, please! I’ll even come over to your friend’s place!

Rin: It’s an hour by train. And they’re all girls. You’re not coming.

Strongest!ShunYoung: Ugh… damn it…

Rin: Just use the methods I taught you.

Man… even Rinko won’t bail me out this time. Guess I’ll just cram like hell. Ahhh, and world history’s a nightmare toooo!!

And so, exams ended—and so did I. Totally wrecked.

Grades are getting posted today, and honestly, this system’s trash. It’s fine if you’re at the top, but if you’re near the bottom? It’s just public humiliation. Who wants that first thing in the morning!?

“Ugh… my scores dropped again… my average’s wrecked…”

Way below the mean. Fantastic. Probably failed one or two subjects…

“Hey, results are up already!”

“Oh… Shina, let’s share the pain of being bottom-tier together…”

“Tch.”

…Wait. Did Shina just click her tongue at me? No, must’ve imagined it.

“Hmm~ ah, ah—!! Rinko! Mio! Look, look! Number one!!”

Ugh, what’s with the yelling… number one’s always Rinko, obviously.

Wait… what?

1st — Tennouji Daiki — 792/800
2nd — Fuyuki Rinko — 790/800

…Huh?

Huuuuuuuuuuuuuh!?!?
