Chapter 32

A few days after Chifuyu-nee met Madoka and [Zodiac Beasts], I decided to visit Dan, who I haven't seen in a long time. How could I spend the night outside the Academy today, I would spend it with Snake, and with Tiger if she was already back. His family restaurant was closed today, but he received me.

(Dan): "Ichika! Did you remember where I live?"

(Ichika): "Things have been a little busy."

(Dan): "At least you send me a message or two."

(Ichika): "What about Kazuma?"

(Dan): "He was accepted to a college in another city, he will only come back on vacation."

I really wanted to see Kazuma, after all, he and Dan were the only male friends my age that I had.

(Dan): "Come on. Let's play a little and talk about what you were telling me in the emails."

We both went straight to his room and stayed playing and talking.

(Dan): "You are very lucky... just reading your e-mail I can see paradise..."

(Ichika): "Believe me... it is not exactly the bed of roses that you imagine..."

(Dan): "Too many attacks?"

(Ichika): "Mine or theirs?"

(Dan): "Are they going up?" he asked, surprised.

(Ichika): "Sometime ... I vowed never to go to the women's bathroom again..."

They acted like hungry wolves waiting for a piece of meat, if I didn't have my ability I might as well have managed to rape me in that place.

(Dan): "This... is more brutal than I expected..."

(Ichika): "Well... at least I have someone to talk to there."

(Dan): "I see... hey... can't you introduce me to anyone?"

(Ichika): "Why don't you try your luck there? Besides, I don't have that much friendship with the students, except for Houki, Cecilia and Ling... and maybe Tatenashi ..."

(Dan): "You are a damn harem protagonist..."

(Ichika): "Please, Dan, Seiji-san is enough... if it continues like this, it will end like him."

Dan even winced when I said that, after all he met Rooster-san.

(Dan): "Turn that mouth over there."

At that time, a noise came from the door, I turned around and saw Dan's little sister, Ran, in a pink blouse and shorts, with her red hair pinned, and she had a black headband, the same as me I gave her a birthday, which was on the same day that I had to face Cecilia, unfortunately I was unable to send the gift that day, but I got some time later. I felt a deja-vu with that scene.

(Ran): "Nii, daddy said that lunch is ready, it seems e- Ichika-san!" - she was going to leave the door, but then she came back surprised.

(Ichika): "Hi Ran."

She was silent and looked at what she was wearing, then she hid, but come down instead she kept talking.

(Ran): "Ahh, were you here?" - she said timidly while showing only the head, which was very red.

(Ichika): "I decided to pay a visit."

(Ran): "I-I see."

(Dan): "Ran, he should knock on the door, he'll think that you-"

She stopped talking with a furious look at Ran, she whispered something, but I couldn't hear what it was, but Dan must have understood, because he messed with the collar of his shirt.

We both went downstairs to eat, and soon afterwards Ran appeared, wearing a simple white dress and her hair down.

(Ichika): "This look looks great on you, Ran."

(Ran): "T-Thank you, Ichika-san."

She blushed even more with that, but I was happy that she was no longer hiding with me around. After that I said goodbye to the two, with Ran still very red, and went straight to the base. Tiger was back, and she and Snake decided to catch up with me.

The next two days went by without a problem. However, at night, someone knocked on the door of our room, when I went to open it, it was Maya-Sensei.

(Ichika): "Maya-Sensei, what happened?" - I asked while making room for her to enter the room.

(Maya): "I came to make an announcement." - she said going to where the beds were, where Houki was.

(Houki): "What happened?"

(Maya): "Change of room."

Both Huoki and I were confused by it coming out of nowhere.

(Ichika & Houki): "What?"

(Maya): "We were able to resolve the room issues. Shinonono-san will be moved to a new room."

Houki's expression went to the extreme shock, and that comment from Chifuyu-nee came back to my mind.

(Houki): "Wait! Do I really have to do this right away?"

It looks like she really didn't want to move.

(Maya): "Well... yes. After all, allowing a boy and a teenage girl to share the same room for a long time would be... good..."

(Houki): "But I don't see any problems with that."

(Ichika): "And neither do I."

Maya-Sensei looked a little sulky at me when I sided with Houki.

(Maya): "I really am sorry... but it is a decision of the Academy."

Houki looked at me, I also didn't see a problem as things were going, but if it was the Academy that was in charge, I couldn't do much.

(Ichika): "Everything's going to be okay, Houki."

She just shrugged her shoulders in defeat.

(Houki): "Alright."

She packed up her things and followed Maya-Sensei. It looks like I would have the room just for myself. As I had nothing else to do, I went to sleep.

The next day I was even surprised that Houki was not there, I really got used to her in the room. I got ready and went to have coffee, as always the three joined me in the cafeteria.

(Ichika): "Hi girls."

(Cecilia): "Hi Ichika-san."

(Ling): "Hey, Houki. What happened to you guys not coming together?"

(Houki): "They changed my room..."

(Cecilia): "Really?"

I could see her and Ling's eyes shine with this news.

(Ichika): "As the condition of the rooms is already resolved, then there will be no more changes."

The two withered on the spot as Houki cast a 'well done' look at them. We finished our coffee and went straight to the living room, and said goodbye to Ling who was from a different room. Shortly afterwards, our teachers arrived. Chifuyu-nee stayed near the door while Maya-Sensei went to her usual place. The entire room was silent.

(Maya): "Good morning guys! Today we'll introduce a new student."

When she finished saying that, the door opened, and a person came in, and to my surprise, it was a boy, a blond boy with dark purple eyes, with a face that was kind of feminine.

(??????): "I am Charles Dunoa. I come from France. It is a pleasure to meet you."

His second name made me wonder about that situation. I had researched about the Dunoa. They were the owners of an IS development company, their company controlled the third largest IS group in the world, but the company owner did not have children with the current woman. Apparently he had a mistress, but she disappeared.

But he never claimed any children, why did someone call himself Dunoa? The only answer that came to my mind was that he wasn't exactly him, and he was just dressing up as a man because of me.

The girls possibly didn't associate the name and were just impressed with the person in front of us.

(Student 1): "A-A boy?"

(Charles): "Yes. I found out that there was someone like me here and I decided to move here..."

He was unable to finish the speech because the whole room, with the exception of Houki, Cecilia and the teachers, started to scream. Charles was even surprised by that.

(Student 1): "One boy! It's a second boy!"

(Student 2): "And he also came to our class!"

(Student 3): "And he is cute, the kind that you want to protect!"

At that time Chifuyu-nee lost her temper.

(Chifuyu): "Enough! Be silent!"

The room went silent, as it always did when Chifuyu-nee lost patience. It seems that their fanaticism was greater than the excitement of having a boy in the room.

(Chifuyu): "We will have a practical class with Class 2-1. You should all change and wait in the second arena."

(Class 1-1): "Hai!"

(Chifuyu): "And also, Orimura..."

(Ichika): "Hai?"

(Chifuyu): "Take care of Dunoa. After all, you two are boys... Dismissed!"

I was pretty sure I saw a smile on Chifuyu-nee's face when she spoke to boys. It just made me even more suspicious. At that time, Charles stood in front of me.

(Charles): "Are you Orimura-kun? Nice to meet you. I am-"

(Ichika): "It is not wanting to be rude, but we have to leave, otherwise it will be a little difficult, not to mention that the girls will change." - I said getting up and holding his hand.

His hand was very soft, almost like Cecilia's, I saw that he turned a little red, which only made me more suspicious if he was really a boy. I dragged him out of the room and guided him.

(Ichika): "We will have to use the Arena's changing rooms to be able to change. We will always do that, so get used to it. After school I will show you the whole school."

(Charles): "H-Hai... and Orimura-kun... what did you mean when you said it would be difficult for us to leave?"

Before I could answer, the reason for that sentence answered for me, with the appearance of two girls.

(Girl 1): "Transfer student located!"

(Girl 2): ​​"And he's with Orimura-kun!"

(Charles): "W-What?"

(Ichika): "There is your answer."

I turned around and saw that there was a crowd behind us too.

(Girl 3): "Girls! They are here."

(Girl 4): "Come over here!"

I was still surprised at how quickly they managed to get together, but I wasn't going to wait and be surrounded.

(Ichika): "Come." - I said dragging Charles.

We took the first corridor that was nearby, I just heard the girls scream.

(Girl 5): "They are running away!"

(Girl 6): "Behind them!"

(Girl 7): "Wait! Let me at least take a picture!"

I let go of Charles's hand and we just ran.

(Charles): "Why are everyone making this mess?"

(Ichika): "Lack of man! Just run, otherwise you won't want to know what they'll do to you."

(Charles): "H-Hai!"

Charles and I don't look back, even with the girls screaming, we just run to the changing rooms. I wasn't sure if Charles was a boy or not, and if it weren't for that she really disguised it well, but I was happy to have someone to share all that attention from school.
