The reason why this genius little girl who doesn't get along with anyone, wants to be only spoiled by me

Episode c51: Lolicon, But Only for That Girl

Sei-san is truly kind.

Even though she believes I’m a lolicon, she doesn’t despise nor reject me. Instead, she tries to understand me. Well… even thought the lolicon part is all but a misunderstanding, though.

Honestly speaking…

Sei-san is rumored to be the most beautiful girl in the academy—again someone extremely popular. Normally, someone like me wouldn’t even be on her radar. She’s a high-class flower blooming far beyond my reach.

In that sense, she’s quite similar to Hime—someone from a completely different world.

Yet, from the moment we met, Sei-san always spoke to me at an eye-to-eye level. She never looked down on me nor treated me like I was beneath her. She always treated me as an equal.

That’s precisely why I think—

What an incredibly beautiful person she is.

I want to properly face her and ease her worries…

“I’m not a lolicon… but, even if I say that, I guess it’s still hard to believe me?”

“Un.”

Sei-san is genuinely worried about me.

She thinks I possess a desire that would never be satisfied—a twisted desire.

Of course, that’s completely wrong.

But Sei-san trusts Hime’s words way more than mine.

“If Hime-chan, who is way smarter than what I can ever be, says this… I’m really sorry, even though I want to believe in your words, Yohei, but I can’t just ignore her. She’s someone I want to trust and put my faith in more than anyone.”

Hime believes I’m a lolicon, that’s why Sei-san will naturally believe the same.

In other words, no matter what I say, I can’t alter Sei-san’s mind. The only way to fix this misunderstanding is to change Hime’s perception.

If that’s the case, convincing Sei-san here and now is impossible. Let’s give up.

However, letting her continue thinking I’m a lolicon would leave her worried forever.

She would think I’d be forever trapped by my inner forbidden desires for the rest of my life.

“I understand… but please believe this one thing about me.”

So that she doesn’t feel sorry for me all the time, I just don’t want her to make this clear more than anything.

“The reason I find Hime cute is not because I’m a lolicon.”

It’s not because of some weird fetish.

Nor that I got to her because of some ulterior motives.

“I think Hime is cute because she’s Hime. She’s just such a good girl—so much that I’d want her as a little sister… that’s all. These type of feelings, I won’t feel this way about just any other child.”

I admit that I admire Hime as a wonderful individual.

But that’s not because she’s a small kid.

“It was only Hime who became this special to me.”

This is the one thing I absolutely don’t want her to misunderstand. I wanted to properly deny that I came close to her because I am a lolicon.

“Because it was Hime-chan… that you…?”

Sei-san’s gaze still carries some doubt.

But I have one undeniable piece of evidence that will completely silence and overpower all of her refuting.

“I’m sure Sei-san understands it as well. After all… Hime is ridiculously cute, isn’t she?”

Sei-san absolutely adores her little sister.

Anyone who spends even a little time with them would know that just as some matter of fact.

Sei-san is kind to everyone, but her love for Hime is just on another level.

So… she must feel the same way I do.

“—-Th, that’s true!”

See? I knew it.

Sei-san nodded affirmatively with a force that her entire body bounced alongside it. She looked like she completely accepted my logic without even questioning, as if it were a perfect logic, without even a scope of refuting.

“Hime-chan is unbelievably cute after all! I see… so that’s why you couldn’t resist her at all, Yohei!”

…That, why does that wording feel a little off.

But still, as long as she gets the main point I want to get across her, I won’t complain.

“So that’s why, don’t worry about it. It’s not like I’m attracted to just any little girl… Hime is the only one who’s special to me.”

It’s not like, anyone is fine if they are a small kid.

It’s not even like, I came to like Hime, just because she is a small kid.

And it’s also not like, being a small kid is one and main, undisputable reason overall.

It’s because of who Hime is. That I felt she is incredibly cute.

Be it now, or even in the future, I can’t ever imagine feeling the same way for anyone else other than Hime.

When I managed to relay that to her, Sei-san… finally relaxed and let go of her stiff shoulders with a small sigh of relief.

“I see… I’m glad… So it’s only dedicated to Hime-chan.”

Maybe I managed to ease her worries a little.
