Too Many Losing Heroines! - Volume 4 - Chapter 4.3

Even though a lot has happened, I have safely taken back the doujinshi. Now I can enjoy my winter holiday.

I returned to the promenade from the bridge. After confirming that no one else is there, I look inside the paper bag.

It’s a self-made photocopy. For some reason, there are a ton of post-it notes on it. It looks like it’s sealing up an evil spirit. However, this is undoubtedly Tsukinoki-senpai’s real-life BL doujinshi. Those notes are full of detailed feedback upon a closer look. Why is she keeping those here…?

I opened the book to a random page. There are a lot of quality illustrations.

I’m on the top, so this is me, right? …Haha, …this is amazing…

Oh, shit, I don’t have time to read everything. I have to report this to Tsukinoki-senpai on Line as soon as possible.

Kaju should be preparing for my birthday back home. I have to be back right after comforting Yanami.

I remembered it was this time last year. I had to prepare for the exam, and Kaju made me a list of questions she predicted would be on the exam. We did the exam together. Finally, I defended my honor as the older brother with a slight advantage. That memory is still fresh to me.

My phone rang as I was about to call Kaju.

The screen displays “Koto Tsukinoki”. She’s fast. I wonder if she’s serious about her exam preparations.

“Hello, what’s wrong?”

“You’re still asking that? You did well yesterday.”

That’s the first thing she says. I took the phone away from my face and laughed.

“Yeah, I did that. Well, can I hang up?”

“It’s a joke. Thanks a lot.”

We chuckled. I started explaining after that.

“Sorry, I knew I was actually meddling in you two’s business, but I had to since it involved two student council members.”

“You’re right. Even though there is a lot I want to apologize for, I won’t ask you about your date with Shintaro. Let’s just call it a draw, hmm?”

“Tamaki-senpai was really sad yesterday. Please pamper him afterward.”

“Ah, my pampering has been finished perfectly. Winter nights are long, after all.”

“Can I charge you for topics like that?”

It looks like things are fine between them.

I passed a woman taking her dog for a walk and fell silent.

Senpai remained quiet. She then spoke up in a calm demeanor.

“...Nukumizu-kun, thank you very much. I have definitely learned my lesson.”

“Indeed, I hope you do.”

“It’s fine. I really have. That’s why I made some slight changes to that novel and made Shikiya a new character. I’ll send it to you later.”

“...Senpai, you have learned nothing, right?”

I made a mistake. This person is- Koto Tsukinoki.

I sighed and tried to end the call. Senpai continued anxiously.

“Wait, I really am reflecting on my mistakes. I’ll use a digital version with passcode protection instead of paper to avoid it from being distributed. Also, the password is the last 4 digits of the document.”

“Alright, please prepare for your exam. What if only your boyfriend gets into the university? That person will realize he’s very popular with girls, you know?”

“...I’ll do my best.”

I’m glad she understands. I stretched my back after hanging up.

Alright, let’s check up on Yanami next.

Facing danger with determination- is a sign of manliness.

Literature Club Report - Internal Edition

<The Sweetness Between Teachers and Students> by Koto Tsukinoki

[TL: BL warning.]

Zavit Royal Magic Academy. It’s the top noble academy on the continent.

Two men are heading toward the massive school building through the long stone slab road.

One of them is wearing a kimono with hakama pants. He looked around anxiously from time to time. He seems worried. The man is rubbing his cheeks right now. His messy mustache is spreading throughout his face.

“Hey, Mishima-kun, are we really going there? Aren’t there rumors about human-eating demons around here?”

“Where else can you go after getting kicked out of the elf village?”

The man in a khaki military uniform answered. He seems to be tired of answering.

“This is what I’m talking about. Shouldn’t the reincarnated receive some basic human rights? Getting exiled is too much, right?”

“What rights do you want when you have jumped into the river with an elf lady? Appreciate the fact that you’re still alive.”

Dazai is a little guilty after hearing Mishima out. He retorted childishly.

“It’s because that was the first time I’ve heard elves won’t drown. I was the only one who almost died. I feel like I was cheated on.”

“Those people are elves too. It was just a coincidence that they saved Dazai-san as well.”

Mishima wanted to let him be aware of his impatience. He sighed and started speeding up his legs, wrapped in military boots.

This is one of Dazai-san’s bad habits. He has to say that this person is utterly defenseless when it comes to women.

That’s why Mishima gave up his chill adventurer’s life and came here with him.

Mishima stopped and looked up at the building. Two spires are reaching toward the blue sky.

Dazai and Mishima are here to become teachers with Kawabuta’s recommendation.

Dazai looked at the school building in shock.

“This school is way too massive, right? Is there wine in the canteen?”

“You’re still thinking about that? They may feed you to the dragons if you don’t pay attention to your conduct.”

‘Don’t scare me. By the way, everyone here is a guy.”

Dazai frowned and looked around.

Talent is everything in a world of magic. There’s no difference between gender. Your capability is everything.

Even so, all of the people in uniform are boys.

“This is a boys’ school. No girls here.”

Mishima said plainly. He walked to a small demon statue next to the stone slab road.

The statue started moving when he inserted a letter from his pocket.

“Hey, watch out!”

Dazai already took a step back before he even finished his sentence.

The moving statue swallowed the letter and rose to the sky with its stone wings.

“Alright, we’ll wait for the guide here.”

Mishima shook his hands casually as he turned around and looked at Dazai again. He’s freaking out. Drum-like beast screams can be heard from afar. Dazai looked in that direction sheepishly.

“Wait, you were just joking about feeding me to the dragons, right?”

“Unfortunately, I still haven’t encountered someone who deserves to be eaten yet. Don’t panic. It’s okay if you don’t get any bad ideas.”

Mishima said that half-jokingly. Dazai nodded in silence.

The student council room is on the top floor of the academy.

Two male students are looking outside over the vast window.

The student council president, Hibari Hokobaru. He’s handsome and tall. His crystal-clear pupils are described with utter brutality in rumors.

Also, no one can remain composed after witnessing his- sheer cold beauty.

“Are those new teachers? Their outfits are pretty weird. Where did they get reincarnated from?”

Hokobaru asked the man next to him.

“Both are from…Japan. …Showa Era.”

The person mumbling the answer out is the student council secretary, Yumeji Shikiya.

He titled his head. His curled bangs are gently resting on his forehead.

“Japan again? Showa, what a strange era.”

The two reincarnated appeared over the window.

The man with a single-edged sword wears the same clothing as them.

The other person is wearing some front-opening clothing fastened with a belt. It reminds him of people from a different race in the east.

Looking at those two, he felt- the man from the east looked over here worriedly.

No, that’s absolutely impossible. The student council room has been sealed with blocking magic. No one can enter it or observe the situation from outside. His heart has been in a state of constant fear ever since that man played with him that day.

Prez smiled bitterly. As for Shikiya, he held Prez’s hand with his cold, slim fingers.

“...No, we have to greet the teachers first. I have already taught you the academy's rules with my body, right?”

He’s used to his flirting. However, Hokobaru suddenly couldn’t laugh anymore. His body is frozen.

The spell appearing in Shikiya’s white pupils is- <Bondage>. Hokobaru’s smile froze.

“S-Shikiya, …what are you planning to do…?”

Shikiya remained silent. His grip grew more assertive.

Hokobaru managed to shake off his hand, yet he couldn’t avoid those white pupils-

He heard someone clapping from the other side of the room.

“As expected of the president, I can’t believe you can still move under Shikiya-senpai’s spell.”

“This voice, it’s Nukumizu…?”

The blocking magic affecting this room is one of the Twelve Complete Magic in the academy. A spell that allows someone to sneak in here doesn’t exist. The only possible scenario is- internal permission.

“A welcome party for the new teachers? Please allow me to participate as well.”

Nukumizu stepped through the thick pile carpet silently. He hugged Hokobaru’s waist.

“Nukumizu, you! What are you trying to do after taking away my freedom with such an underhanded method-”

“My my, Shikiya-senpai’s spell should have ended already. Prez allowed me to hug you willingly. Just like that day.”

“You forced me into it that day!”

Nukumizu put his hand on Hokobaru’s chin and forced him to raise his head.

“Ahh, Prez, …your face. Please allow me to see your face more.”

Shikiya snapped his finger while standing behind him.

The walls suddenly started trembling. Rose vines reached out to tangle up Prez’s limbs.

“Huh!? Shikiya, you!?”

“Please don’t blame senpai. He wants to see the same view as Prez. I’m just fulfilling his tiny wish.”

Facing the trapped Hokobaru, Shikiya-san approached him until their lips almost touched.

“Prez, …I’m with you as well, …so…”

The rose vine bit Hokobaru’s body as he struggled. A moan came out of his mouth.

“Hmph! Nukumizu, don’t think I’ll let you get away with this easily!”

“You say that, but you’re looking forward to it, right? I don’t think you’re trembling out of fear.”

He reached his hand out to Hokobaru’s chest and tore off the buttons on his shirt rudely.

A tinge of violence appeared on Nukumizu’s face.

The students-only welcoming party (banquet) is getting a head start-
