Fans Club

Kouro's life as a student at the Tachikawa academy does seem normal and even great.

There are friends who are ready to help and behave well with him, especially since they are charming and active school girls.

The facilities at Tachikawa Academy are also very complete, starting from the school cafeteria which has a delicious and most importantly free meal menu. Then there is the well-stocked library from school subjects to entertainment books such as novels and so on.

What's more, the academy has tons of clubs for student activities whether it's a sports club, animal lovers club, or Otaku club and more.

Kouro actually wanted to join the club but unfortunately he didn't have enough free time so he didn't join.

He enjoyed his daily life except for one thing.

...

On a sunny morning, Kouro was seen standing in front of his shoe locker with a constipated expression.

Compared to the other shoe lockers, his shoe locker looked bulging and was even on the verge of being forced open by being filled with something.

He paused for a long time before sighing, Kouro opened his shoe locker which quickly pulled out hundreds if not thousands of brightly colored love letters.

Kouro seemed to be drowning in them, luckily he had 'Inventory' so he could store all the love letters without much effort.

True, the most uncomfortable thing in the academy for him was that there were many admirers or even those who wanted to confess to him.

At first it was only a few dozen then it quickly became hundreds and now it was thousands! Kouro was afraid that if it continued like this all the girls would give him love letters and his locker would be destroyed!

(Rip to Mr. Kouro's shoe locker.)

He knows it takes a lot of courage for a girl to write a love letter, so he can't just ignore it.

After all, what if there were several girls waiting for his reply but in the end he didn't meet them... Doesn't that sound mean and hurtful?

That's why Kouro always reads those letters even though there are some that give him goosebumps, like there are some who want to be his FWB.

Fortunately with the 'inventory' function he could quickly sort through all the love letter information without having to open them one by one.

"Hmm... Why do they always add their names and phone numbers in these letters?" Kouro muttered after reading some of the letters displayed in the interface.

"Now... What am I supposed to do with these letters?... I can't go to all of them and I can't just ignore them either... " Kouro muttered in confusion thinking of a solution.

Several hours had passed but he didn't find the right solution.

In the afternoon, during the meal break.

Kouro, who was in the cafeteria, was so lost in thought that even the food on the table was untouched by him.

There were several girls sitting with him, one of them was Kyouko, she looked at Kouro with a worried expression.

Kouro had been absent-minded since entering class, he hadn't been paying attention to the teacher and even went to the wrong bathroom because he wasn't paying attention.

"Kouro-kun if you have a problem, you can tell us, who knows we can help you solve the problem. " She said.

Some of the girls by the side also nodded their heads in response to Kyouko's words and looked at Kouro.

Seeing their concern, Kouro was a little embarrassed and scratched his cheek before explaining.

"Well... So you see, I get too many love letters from girls. It makes me happy, but as you guys know I don't plan on dating. "

"Since there are too many, I can't explain my intentions to all the girls, but I can't just throw away their letters either. Can you guys come up with a solution for that?"

Seeing that Kouro wanted to reject the girls who confessed their love for him through letters, their expressions became a little subtle as they also wrote love letters for him.

"I see... By the way if I may know what type of girl you like, Kouro-kun?" One of the girls asked either intentionally or unintentionally.

The surrounding girls who heard the girl's question seemed to widen their ears.

"Ah... I haven't really thought about it, maybe... Who is a few years older than me, has a caring and graceful nature and can cook."

Kouro subconsciously described Mei as his type, well... This was not surprising since she was the only girl Kouro knew closely...

Wait! There's still his childhood friend!

But Kouro seemed to have a guilty expression when remembering his childhood friend.

Remember, Kouro almost threw everything away to save the world, starting from leaving his uncle and aunt including his childhood friend...

Moreover, Kouro left them all at a time when his childhood friend needed him.

After he got the system and experienced 'enlightenment' Kouro regretted his actions at the time.

Now he didn't know how she was, but Kouro could only hope that she wasn't in Nagazora city.

Kouro didn't want the moment he wanted to apologize to his childhood friend... What he found was a dead body or even a zombie...

He currently didn't notice how most of the girls around him seemed to be wearing sad expressions including Kyouko who was beside him.

As Kouro was filled with sadness and regret, he suddenly came up with an idea.

'Hmm... Maybe I can learn programming and create an AI that can create automated messages to all these girls?'

The more Kouro thought about it, the more he felt that this was a good idea making his expression change for the better and smiled happily.

"Thank you for listening to me, but I've come up with a good idea for a solution. "

Kouro remembered there was a book about programming in library.

Given that his break time was limited, Kouro voraciously ate his lunch before hurrying off to borrow the book.

Kyouko and the others could only stare blankly at Kouro who was running too fast.

"Kouro... He's already gone. "

One of the girls then turned her head and asked curiously.

"What solution do you think Kouro-kun found?"

They thought about it hard and couldn't find a perfect solution.

This made Kyouko slap the table and stand up with a serious expression.

*BAM!

"I think he's just lying to us because he doesn't want to worry us!"

Although they had only been acquainted with Kouro for a few days, they had clearly understood his kind and helpful personality.

Hence they nodded their heads in agreement with Kyouko's words.

"This reminds me of when Rio-chi hurt her leg during gym class. " One of the girls said and glanced at the girl beside her with an annoying smile.

"Ah, that time Kouro-kun immediately helped her with the first aid kit he got out of nowhere. " muttered one of the girls while rubbing her chin.

Rio who was being stared at by all of them immediately blushed when reminded of it out of embarrassment.

Rio was a tall, mature-skinned girl with short gray hair like a boy, she had a fit body from her thighs and buttocks that were very prominent.

They remembered all of Kouro's actions that always helped students in need selflessly.

Therefore they now wanted to help Kouro to repay his kindness.

"Ah! I have a good idea, how about we form a club to protect Kouro? With that club, not only do we protect him, we can also share various information. " Kyouko said with sparkling eyes.

"Information?" Asked one of the girls with a raised eyebrow.

Kyouko first looked right and left before clearing her throat and pulling out her cell phone and showing them an article accompanied by a photo.

"This article... Isn't it about the ten richest people in the world? What does it have to do with Kouro-kun?" Rio said in confusion.

"Take a look at this photo. " Kyouko pointed to a photo of a couple who were among the 10 richest people in the world. She zoomed in on a certain point that showed a little boy with black hair and purple eyes.

"This... Kouro-kun... As a child? He actually turned out to be the son of a wealthy family? But I remember Kouro-kun saying that he was an orphan. " Rio said with widened eyes but quickly returned to normal before putting on a confused expression.

"That's true, Kouro-kun's parents did pass away, they were actually Kouro-kun's uncle and aunt and his guardian. "

"Hmm... I see, I think I understand why you want to form that club. Do you want to protect Kouro-kun's privacy from irresponsible people?" Said one of the girls who wore round glasses and had a calculating expression.

Kyouko nodded her head and continued, "You could say that. "

They finally thought about Kyouko's proposal for a moment before feeling that this was a good idea so they agreed to it.

That how the 'Photography' club (Sleeping Prince fan club) was born.

In the distant future, after the Third Eruption occurred, the club became the first charity to ask for funds to help the residents or children affected by the Third Eruption in Nagazora city.

They made the request in the name of 'Hanagami Kouro' which was coincidentally heard by Kouro's uncle and aunt.

They quickly sponsored and promoted the cause which resulted in the club's president Kyouko becoming famous on television.

Kyouko and her friends were given high honors from the Japanese government and then they also received jobs at a famous company owned by Kouro's uncle and aunt.

They were very grateful for creating a fan club and making Kouro have a good reputation.

Unfortunately this all happened far in the future.

At this time, Kouro who was dealing with the librarian while carrying some books on programming suddenly sneezed.

"Who's talking about me?"
