Ugly Desire

Ishigami didn't refuse Kobachi and waited so they could go to the library together, but as he waited for her, watching her, putting her books and other things in her bag, he couldn't help but ask, "Does the librarian have to be in the library every day, Osaragi-san?" 

As long as he remembered, this girl had been in the library every day. 

He had been busy studying, reading books, and raising his reading proficiency skills, which are almost close to Level 3, but what about Kobachi? 

While she was part of the librarian, did she have to be in the library all the time? 

What about the other members? 

Have they slackened their jobs and left everything to her?

While Kobachi wasn't being bullied, Ishigami knew that she was often isolated due to her beauty. In this school, when everyone was above many due to their parents' background, they definitely felt uncomfortable with her beauty and usually often ignored her. 

To be honest, according to his observation, except for Iino, Kobachi didn't have any female friends. 

Still, if someone bullied her, then he would help her, and at the same time, a certain possibility was born in his heart, but he shook his head and waited for her answer. 

As she heard his question, Kobachi stopped for a moment and then continued to clean up her table. "No, I just like to read books, so I often stay even if I am not in charge of being a librarian that day." 

While she said so, she felt bitter inwardly, as it was so hard for her to act and suppress everything, but fortunately, her experience as a kid actress helped her to solve her situation. 

More importantly, she had used to keep everything so nothing should be found out, yet when she turned, she saw Ishigami's expression, which was so strange that it made her skip, thinking that her secret was known. 

"W-what is it?" 

"No, it's just even if you like a book, your grade isn't much different from mine." 

Unlike Iino, who was the best student in the entire grade, or even Onodera, who was within the top 50, Kobachi's grade was about the same as his, even if she often read books. 

"Bastard!" 

Kobachi blushed and lightly hit him since she knew that she had been teased, and at the same time, she knew that it was also a chance for her. "Then... can I study with you too?" 

"Sure." Ishigami nodded. "Though, I can't help you much since my rank is much lower than yours." 

"It's fine. My grade is much better than yours. I can teach you." 

"...is that a return from before?' 

Kobachi smiled and said, "Come on. Let's go to the library." 

"Okay." 

As the two walked, Ishigami initiated the conversation by asking for her favorite books. 

"Oh, if you want to start reading, you should start to read..." 

As he listened, he didn't say much and just added from time to time. As expected, when one talked about the thing they loved the most and the opposite listened carefully to what they loved, that person would be happy. 

It was like when you met an otaku friend, and you two had similar tastes in anime; by then, it would be a blast. 

Instead of talking, listening was the key, so this was what he did, and at the same time, he couldn't help but think about the two rewards he gained from Kaguya and Onodera. The rewards he got from the system were impressive. Even if he had to work hard to increase his proficiency, he knew that as long as he worked hard, he could leave his name on history. 

So, what kind of reward would he gain if he could make Kobachi fall in love with him? 

While his thoughts were morally questioned, if he wanted to improve further, he had to be bold and take the danger to embrace the danger. 

The higher the risk, the higher the return. 

People often said that, and he believed it. 

Still, being patient was the key, and instead of being in a hurry, he should do it carefully. 

Be a coward when people tell you to move, and be bold when people start to become cowardly. 

With that thought, his gaze couldn't help but sneak at her side profile, seeing her red eyes, which were as beautiful as rubies, her slender body comparable to a model's, and her chest slightly bulging. They might not be the biggest, yet they were charming on their own. 

At the same time, when he thought about how her slender yet plump thighs were wrapped in black thighs, it made him slightly dizzy. 

"Then, I will go and study first. Good luck with your librarian duty." 

So when they arrived at the library, Ishigami decided to part away from Kobachi as soon as possible since he was afraid his unpleasant gaze would be noticed, considering how women were particularly sensitive to such a gaze, but—

"Wait." 

"What's wrong, Osaragi-san?' 

Kobachi felt his gaze on her, and while she was nervous, she said, "...help me for a bit." 

"Help you?" 

"Yes." Kobachi made up her mind as she looked at him and pointed at the stack of books on the table. "Help me to return those books to the correct shelves." 

"Well, sure." 

Ishigami saw no harm in helping her, and this also helped him distract his mind from lewd things. Having nothing to do would make him think something weird all the time, and he felt it was unhealthy. Studying was nice, especially when he could see an improvement in himself, but sometimes, having a change of pace might be nice, he thought. 

Nevertheless, the job of a librarian was quite simple: helping those who needed to borrow a book, helping to search for a book, making a record, and also returning the borrowed books to the correct shelves. It might seem troublesome, but as the library wasn't a popular spot in the school, it wasn't a busy duty, and they could spend their leisure time reading. 

If he wasn't a student council member, he thought it might be good to become a librarian since it was a good thing to enjoy books. 

Still, the privilege that came from the student council was nice, as he was in charge of the money of the clubs and various other things related to the students, and this experience helped him to become a corrupt bureaucrat. 

Jokes aside, he felt that it was possible, but he would do it in a subtle way, such as going on a training camp at the luxurious resort. 

'Hmm...' 

Ishigami felt this should be possible, but when he thought of Shirogane's kind nature, he knew it was impossible. In this school, where everyone was cruel and didn't think a human life was similar to others, he knew that Shirogane, a gentle and kind young man, was a rare breed. 

"Is it okay for you to push all of that by yourselves, Ishigami?" Kobachi asked as she looked at Ishigami, who pushed the cart that was stacked with many books. 

"It's fine. Leave all the physical work to me." 

"You have become reliable now." 

"I have been, but you just notice it now." 

"...no, I have known this part of you from before." 

"What?" 

Ishigami looked at Kobachi as he heard her murmuring something. 

"No, nothing. Let's finish this as soon as possible." 

"Okay." 

The job of the librarian might be plain, but it helped him to distract himself with many things as he needed to search for the correct shelves to return the borrowed books. 

Squatting down, he returned the books one by one as he read their titles. It felt weird that there were so many books with unique titles. 

"Biography of Sada Abe..." 

Ishigami's expression became weird, wondering why a biography of a female killer who killed her lover and cut her lover's penis was there, and he wondered who had kept and borrowed it. Still, he thought about borrowing it later since it seemed quite interesting as he wished to know the motive of this woman to kill her lover. However, there was Kobachi, so he decided to remember the shelf and get it later. 

"Ishigami." 

"Hmm?" 

"Why did you date Onodera?" 

This question again...

Ishigami felt helpless, but as he had answered this question so many times before, he knew what to answer. Only the development was different from what he imagined. 

"Let me guess, you just want a girlfriend that helps you with your sexual needs, right?" 

"...." 

Ishigami was stunned, and all of a sudden, he could feel a warm breath in his ear, which made him uncomfortable. It made his body giddy and slightly tickled, and his ear was a bit sensitive. More importantly, as a young man filled with energy and vitality without any place to vent, he felt... he might do something unforgivable. 

Still, Kobachi's question was too rude, and he thought of scolding her since even if they had quite an okay relationship, wasn't she so rude? 

Yet, when he turned, suddenly, his lips were taken. 

His lips were pressed against her small and soft lips. 

His eyes widened, and he didn't expect to be kissed so suddenly! 

Huh? 

Why was this happening? 

Why was he being sexually assaulted so suddenly? 

As he was confused by Kobachi's sudden kiss, Kobachi pulled her head slightly, looking at his confusion amusedly. 

"How cute." 

"..." 

Snap!

"Eh?" 

Widening her eyes, Kobachi had never thought that Ishigami would kiss her back.

I want to say something here so it won't be bland. 

There you go.
