4.2.3 — The Prologue Of The Election Tournament
“Welcome home, Hayashizaki-kun!”
“So you’ve come home, My King!”
When he got back to his room, inside Hoshikaze-senpai and Leme were playing pro-wrestling. Leme’s flying cross chop hit Hoshikaze-senpai’s nape of the neck, the counter-attack came and Hoshikaze-senpai caught both feet of the escaping Leme and dealt a giant swing.
Of course both of their bodies were protected by magic power, so it was only at the level of playing around with each other.
Kazuki reflexively got bewildered. Mio and the others frequently came to his room, that was why he always cleaned his room so that he wouldn’t be ashamed by anyone seeing them. Recently Kazuki’s room could be entered freely as long as you just knocked before.
However until now Hoshikaze-senpai had never come here before.
“It seems this person has something to talk about.”
Leme, who was flung away to the bed and got toppled over said that. Her tunic one piece was turned up inside out and her no-panty bottom was appearing and disappearing. …She was in a state where her clothes were created by magic power so he didn’t pay attention, but cover yourself with panties at least.
“Right, right, I have something to discuss man to man!”
The senpai that was looking at him face to face was wearing a bra-top and spats that had a mysterious feeling of luster. Those were high-performance fit-wear that were used alchemic material. It was glued to the skin closely, expanding and contracting matching with the body’s movements, the breathability was also good, it even regulated the temperature by reacting to the miniscule amount of magic power.
For some reason it seemed senpai was wearing this active underwear as her room-clothes.
However the problem of this underwear was that it made the line of the body perfectly stand out. It distinctly dug into the high leg line at her nether region, it also glued into the breast and bottom and just like that he could understand their shape. It was colored with two exchanging shades of deep blue and light blue, but it completely looked like body paint to him.
He felt like a girl must not be allowed to come out in front of a man wearing this piece of clothes.
“Senpai said man to man, but senpai is not a man right? Besides senpai is…looking like that already.”
Kazuki averted his eyes slightly from Hoshikaze-senpai who had an innocent expression.
“Hmm? Well anyway sit, sit.”
Hoshikaze-senpai dropped her body on the bed with her legs wide open and she sat cross legged, then she urged Kazuki to sit right in front of her. To take that kind of posture with that appearance, how could he call her a man right from the front seeing her like that, he thought. But when Kazuki sat where she was indicating at, Leme came near Kazuki in a toddle.
“The truth is…she genuinely wants to conquer her man phobia. Because of that she is wishing to cooperate with you who is her friend.”
“Conquering her man phobia…is it?”
Hoshikaze-senpai had a phobia of men. Despite the yearning as a prince that she received because of her androgynous beautiful face, the person in question herself was weak with men, even so she still longed for a man’s friendship. What a puzzling person.
“From now on the interaction with the Sword Division will increase drastically right? There are a lot of boys in the Sword Division, so I was thinking that I can’t keep being like this. Especially if I’m thinking of winning against Kaguya and become the Chief Student Council President after this!”
“It’s certainly like that huh. But senpai’s phobia of men, what kind of problem is that?”
After Hoshikaze-senpai took a deep breath, she abruptly took hold of Kazuki’s hand tightly.
Even though she talked as a mature prince, what he felt was a soft hand of a girl. Kazuki felt his heart beat a little faster.
On the other hand―the blood was drained from Hoshikaze-senpai’s face very quickly. In the blink of an eye, tears were amassing in senpai’s eyes, and her cold fingertips were shaking.
“Sen, senpai, please don’t force yourself!”
He couldn’t bear to see her like this, Kazuki separated the hands by himself.
“But I don’t want you to misunderstand me, it’s not that I actually hate Hayashizaki-kun.”
“Of course I know that.”
“Talking while meeting face to face like this is fine for me. At first even that was scary for me, but in the time we were together I came to know that Hayashizaki-kun is a kind person then. I can keep my composure with my reasoning.”
Hoshikaze-senpai’s positivity level was―50. A good level where one could be said as a [good friend]. There was also the influence of her man phobia, but while doing sword practice together, their distance was shrinking little by little.
“Even so, things like touching and shortening the distance are still no good huh?”
“Yes. A rugged man that looks strong and their smell are scary. If just talking like this I can feel relieved that Hayashizaki-kun is a kind person, but when touching or the distance is too near, a fear is wells up somewhere deep inside me that is different from my reasoning…”
“Do I, really reek like a man that much? Though I think I’m not effeminate.”
“As expected when I touch you it really felt like you are a real boy. By the way when I consulted Kaguya, conversely Kaguya said [normally he is a kind younger boy, however sometimes there were times where he suddenly became forceful that made my chest tighten]. Keep this a secret okay?”
“She, she said that kind of thing…”
For Kazuki, Kaguya-senpai was someone that he felt the most conscious of as a [woman]. To think that Kaguya-senpai also became strongly conscious of him as a [man] in reality.
Thinking of how she kept treating him like a child… A, anyway this was not the time!
“Well then, how does senpai plan to treat this?”
“I don’t know, but isn’t it fine if I simply get used to a boy, that’s what I thought. That’s why I want to consult you, however…I want to freeload in this room!”
“Freeloading, does senpai plan to stay here!? Though from the beginning we had been living under the same roof, but for a boy and girl to live together in this cramped room will create problems.”
Certainly Mio, Lotte, and Koyuki also came here to play, but by no means did they come here every night.
“There’s no problem! By playing together with the two of us in this airtight space and chatting at night while sleeping, a deep friendship between men will be born, with that I think I will ride past this phobia of men for sure!”
For him to do something like passing a long time together with this innocent senpai who was wearing that kind of suggestive appearance, this side’s reasoning would be the one that would become dangerous.
However…there was no one else that senpai could rely on.
“Understood, if it’s really for senpai’s sake, then I will show you the endurance of a swordsman!”
Hearing that declaration, Leme was making a pouting face at his side, she sent telepathic message to Kazuki.
{Recently, my King keeps chasing Leme out immediately…even though it’s nice for Leme to be together with my King when it’s time to sleep. The Lemegetonfamily service is insufficient here…}
Sorry, Kazuki thought inside his heart to reply. Now that she talked about it, he didn’t think about Leme’s circumstances.
Leme materialized in this world using Kazuki’s magic power. That’s why when she was materialized she was at Kazuki’s side as much as possible, it seemed that sleeping together at night was good for her fuel consumption.
But when Mio and the others came playing in this room, Leme took them into consideration and withdrew to Astrum.
If Hoshikaze-senpai was staying in this room for a long time, it would be a big problem as far as Leme was concerned.
{Well, it’s for the sake of the harem so that’s fine. This is a rare chance, so Leme will go to Futsunushi no Kami’s place.}
…Now that she mentioned it, what became of the relationship between fellow Divas at the Astrum?
{Divas have this place called
