The Story Of How I, A Gloomy Guy, Ended Up Surrounded By the Top-Tier Beautiful Girls In Class After A Seat Change - Chapter 136-137

Chapter 136: Big Breasts and Airi’s Hints Are Too Strong

When I got back with the takoyaki, yakisoba, and everything else from the food court, the first thing that jumped out at me was Airi’s huge breasts and Yuria’s plump thighs.

“Yay! Airi’s gonna start with the yakisoba!”

“Oh, wait, Airi, I want yakisoba too.”

“Hehe, no fighting, you two. Tanaka, what would you like?”

“Oh, I’ll have the takoyaki, then.”

The four of us were having a great time enjoying our lunch together, but I didn’t know where to look.

Since Rui and I had promised to do a private photoshoot, I was trying to avoid looking at anything in an inappropriate way today.

Normally, I’d spend any free moment just looking at Airi’s breasts or Yuria’s thighs, but today, both of those were off-limits.

After all, it’s a special opportunity to do a swimsuit photoshoot with Rui, just the two of us.

I’ll get to capture her navel from any angle I like…The thought alone is thrilling…

“Ryota, what’s up? You’re acting a little weird.”

“Huh?”

While I was practically ogling Rui’s navel, Yuria peered at me with concern.

“You’ve been spacing out and kind of staring at Rui.”

“Hehe…Ryota, are you maybe enchanted by my swimsuit? This one’s my favorite, so it makes me happy if you like it.”

Rui said this proudly with an even bigger smile than usual. Suddenly, both Airi and Yuria, who were still in the middle of munching, shot looks right at me.

“Hey, Ryota, like I’ve always said, I’ll be mad if you start looking at Rui in that way.”

“I’m not, I’m not! I just happened to spot a mosquito around Rui’s navel, so I was tracking it with my eyes.”

“Really…? Are you sure…?”

Yuria was giving me a cold, suspicious stare.

Geez! If you don’t trust me, I’ll go on for ten minutes about your bare breasts right here!

As I was about to say that, I restrained myself and replied, “I’m serious!” sounding like a bored office worker.

“Hey, Ryo~ta! I’ll say it again, but if you do anything weird to Rui-chan, I won’t forgive you!”

“Airi, swallow before you speak! I didn’t catch any of that!”

“Gulp Umm, what I meant was, like I’ve said before, if you do anything weird to Rui-chan, I won’t forgive you!”

Yuria and Airi sure are protective of Rui. Maybe that’s why they let me look at their breasts and thighs, out of respect for Rui.

“Hehe, I don’t really mind if Ryota wants to look at my body, you know?”

“Huh? Uh, well…”

“No way!”

Before I could respond, Airi and Yuria reflexively objected.

“Rui-chan! That’s not something you say with friends!”

“Yeah, Rui, we’re talking about Ryota here—the massive pervert! Think before you speak.”

These two…They’re acting like I’m at fault, even though they keep giving me permission to look at their bodies. Well, I guess my pervy thoughts are to blame.

In this situation, I’ve got no choice but to look at the one person who won’t complain.

Thinking that, I immediately turned to look at Tanaka.

“Huh? R-Ryota?”

“…………”

“Ah, um, when people watch me eat, I get…embarrassed. Unlike everyone else, I take small bites.”

“What’s so embarrassing about that?”

“Well…it seems like Ryota prefers girls who eat a lot.”

“It’s not like I’m some calorie-counting device. Just let me watch you.”

“L-Let you watch…? Well, I guess it’s okay…”

Watching Tanaka struggling to eat a piece of takoyaki in one bite actually calmed me down a bit.

I was getting worn out from feasting on the super-sized portions of massive breasts and thighs all the time. But watching Tanaka nibble on takoyaki was like a soothing digestive aid.

I’ll start calling Tanaka “Tanaka the Sage.”

“Ryota? You’re staring too much.”

All of a sudden, Rui scolded me.

Apparently, in Rui’s mind, watching Tanaka eat qualifies as “sensitive” too. Maybe I’ll call her “Sensitive Tanaka.”

“Ryota, Ryota! Here, open wide for takoyaki!”

While I was spacing out, Airi, sitting right across from me, held a piece of takoyaki up to my mouth.

Airi loves doing this kind of thing…

“H-Hey, Airi, doing that in front of everyone…”

The moment I said that, I got sharp glares from Yuria and Rui.

“Excuse me? ‘In front of everyone’?”

“And what do you mean by ‘doing that,’ Ryota?”

Uh-oh, I just made it sound like I have some kind of secret relationship with Airi!

“Hehe, Ryota usually just eats it right away, but now he’s acting all shy.”

Wha—Airi!!

Chapter 137: The Instant Death Magic of a Big-Breasted Healer Named Airi

Because of Airi, lunchtime had turned into a battlefield.

Yuria was glaring sharply, Rui had a smile of anger, and Tanaka was munching on takoyaki.

“I didn’t do anything with Airi! It’s the truth!”

Feeling like I was on the stand as a defendant, I declared loudly.

“So, please, don’t fight over me!”

“Ryota-kun, what exactly are you misunderstanding? We wouldn’t get mad over who you date,” Yuria replied.

“Exactly. You’re mistaken, Ryota. We’re just worried about Airi getting involved with a pervert like you,” Rui added.

Yuria and Rui’s sharp words flew at me.

Well, yeah, I knew it all along…of course.

“Geez, everyone’s got the wrong idea about Ryota!”

Then, standing in front of me, the (big-breasted) healer Airi cast her “healing” spell of “support” in my favor.

Once again, it was Airi who saved my life from Yuria and Rui’s berserker attacks.

There’s no doubt about it—Airi is unbeatable.

“Ryota isn’t just a regular pervert, he’s a super-pervert! Just the other day, he even dived right into my breasts! But, well…that honesty is kinda nice, I guess.”

“Huh?”

“Excuse me?”

That was an instant death spell.

☆☆☆

After that, I continued being dragged around by Airi and the others, practically covering the entire pool, until it finally ended by evening.

Yuria and Airi had kept playing until the end, so they both nodded off on the train home, and even Tanaka, whose body was practically like a fragile Spelunker, had fallen fast asleep from exhaustion.

“Hehe…everyone’s fallen asleep, huh?”

“Y-yeah.”

That left just Rui and me alone in our own little space.

Rui…is she still mad about what happened at lunch?

It’s all out in the open now—everything from feeding Airi to diving into her breasts on the mountain the other day.

Rui and Yuria have a strong sense of camaraderie, and knowing all too well about my super-perverted side, they probably just want to keep their friend Airi out of it.

But Airi…she spills everything I want to keep secret, despite all the crazy secrets we share.

“Ryota-kun, since we made that promise about the photo shoot, you’ve stopped looking at me in that pervy way, haven’t you?”

“Sorry for not doing it enough.”

“Aww, getting all pouty now?”

Not being able to think of anything lewd at the pool is way past the point of pouting.

I felt like I was being fitted with an invisible chastity belt.

“You really tried that hard? Does that mean…you like me, Ryota-kun?”

“Don’t mock me just because I’m a shy, awkward otaku. Rui, I want to do that photo shoot with you.”

“For someone who calls himself a ‘shy, awkward otaku,’ could you drop that cool voice?”

Rui teased, smiling as usual.

“But if Ryota-kun says that, it makes me happy. Sure, you’re a hopelessly super-perverted, creepy otaku, though.”

“Hey, watch how you say that!”

“Hehe, but still, you know? Ryota-kun, you’re my one and only hero.”

There it is again…

Rui always talks about me like I’m someone amazing, like she’s fixated on me.

It’s strange, but…it doesn’t feel bad.

After all, is there anyone who’d feel bad about being recognized by Kuroki Rui?

“Hey, Ryota-kun. Since we’re alone, there’s something I wanted to tell you.”

“S-something you wanted to tell me?”

“You know…about that punishment we talked about the other day.”

Just like that, Rui brought up the subject of punishment, breaking the nice atmosphere we had going.
