Fay-kun kept swinging his sword!!! It was on a certain day in winter. Nobody saw what heâs doing!ă
Fay-kun was abnormal and kept training hard with his swords to the point he almost fainted. Even so, Fay still did his best and kept swinging his sword over and over again!ă
On that day when winter was in full swing, Fay-kun began to reach a fierce temperature inside his body despite it being cold. Steam was coming out of his head!!ă
ă
Oh my, this is bad! Fay-kun is going to faint from oxygen deficiency or exercising his muscles beyond its limit!!ă
Oh, what do we have here? Wasnât that Arthur, the giant panda type rival, who happened to pass by?ă
ă
âŠI came to see Fayâs training, but heâs sleeping? âŠItâll be bad if his head gets cold, so letâs give him a lap pillow.ă
The passing by Arthur-san put Fay-kunâs head on her lap!ă
ă
Ah, Fayâs hair feels bushy, and his skin is quite taut yet smooth.ă
ă
Oh my, Arthur-san, you sure are touching too much that you wouldnât imagine it being done on a sleeping person. You might not be aware that a humanâs fingers had bacterias like Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa⊠but if you touch and make him melly, thats an OUT, you knowâŠ?ă
As expected of Arthur-san who properly washes her hands every day. Her hands are clean!ă
By the way, she liked cleanliness and her room is also well cleaned!
Therefore, she touched him without reservation. Perhaps liking cleanliness was basic for people with light attributes.ă
Oh? Perhaps Arthur-san was stroking Fay-kunâs head a bit too much since that he woke up instead of him waking up naturally.ă
ă
ââŠOi, what are you doing?âă
âI thought your head would feel cold if left as isâŠâ
âI see. Then stop doing this immediately.â
âNo, you have to rest a bit longer.â
ââŠI donât have the hobby of sleeping in a place like this.â
âNope, you have to sleep!â
ă
Arthur-san reminded Fay-kun as if telling her naughty little brother. But Fay-kun seemed to hate such treatment and immediately tried to get up. HoweverâŠă
âHey, you bastard.âă
âIâll keep doing this until you fall asleep.â
ă
Somehow, Arthur-san put her index finger on Fayâs forehead and he couldnât move just by that. Her index finger made use of Art reinforcement, pure muscle strength, and pushed at the spot considering human structure, so not even Fay-kun could move with that.ă
ă
âFay, I heard you won against those two horses?â ă
ââŠYou bastard keep talking as if nothing happened⊠rather than that, get that finger off.â
âNope! No! Rather than that, you won against horses, right?â
ââŠWhatever. By the way, what do you mean by horses?â
âErr⊠itâs that, people who Tlue talked about.â
âHe sure has a loose mouthâŠâ
âI heard that Fay played a big part in the victory, right? Of course you did!â
âAlthough I donât know why you are the one who is proud, itâs not a big deal.â
âIâm curious about your new skill.â
âItâs not something great, butâŠâ
ă
Oh? Fay-kun intimidated Arthur-san. I could see that Arthur-san was a bit affected.ă
âThatâs your new skill?âă
ââŠâ
âFuh-n, it indeed exudes some sort of pressure.â
ââŠâ
âBut the pressure you unleashed during the entrance exam is greater.â
âWhat do you mean?â
ă
Oh? It seemed Fay-kun was quick to react if it was a combat related topic. Arthur-san also looked happy that Fay-kun responded to her.ă
ă
âI think that something like this is only meaningful if it is unleashed by something beyond oneâs understanding. Err, Fay is a very weird person, so it feels like part of it unleashed and hit the head? Rather, only the part that could be controlled was unleashed? Itâs something like that.âă
ââŠAre you picking a fight with me?â
âHm? Iâm not though? I mean it in a good way. Err, others see you having completely different behavioral philosophies despite being fellow humans, so they see Fay as an unknown existence and are scared of that. Thatâs why, I think that people who have similar auras or know someone who gives off a similar atmosphere would want to understand or empathize with it, while people who are not would want to back away since they are scared due to being unable to comprehend. Fay revealed a bit of the unknown part of his deep ego and that became intimidation. However, Fay always does that instinctually instead of purposefully like what you did right now. When Fay has to unleash that from the depths of your heart and know you might be driven crazy if you didnât, the thing you unleash at that moment is going to be more amazing. Thatâs why it feels different from the one you unleashed during the entrance exam. Because you are not as desperate right now and only unleashed it because you wanted to, itâs not that much of a big deal.âÂ
âI see.â
ă
Fay-kun was slightly lost in thought, seemingly ruminating over Arthur-sanâs long explanation.ă
âAlso, I think Fay is not good at doing something intently like that, just like your Art manipulation. I think being natural suits you the best.âă
ââŠAlthough I donât like you telling me off like you are superiorâŠI guess I canât just ignore your adviceâŠâ
âYes!â
ă
As expected, Iâm the one who knows Fay the best!ă
ă
Arthur showed a big smile while holding on Fay using her single finger! Wasnât it nice for you to have a good nightâs sleep tonight, Arthur-san?!ă
There was no malice involved in lining up Yururu and Arthur-sanâs lap pillow events one after another.
ă
â â
ă
I somehow felt a mysterious sensation. I was given a lap pillow by Yururu-shishou when I woke up. It seemed I passed out from training too much.ă
Well, it was a basic procedure to pass out from training too much.ă
Fainting due to oxygen deficiency was also normal.ă
ă
Therefore, fainting because of such a reason wasnât something to be surprised about. Itâs just, I tried to be a cool-type protagonist and got up from her lap pillow but I failed. I guess I couldnât move if my head was held like that.ă
You wanted to see my intimidation? Fufuh, donât get too scared, shishou! Huh? She didnât get scared that much? Perhaps it was ineffective against a stronger opponent?ă
Well, there was no way for a hardworking protagonist to gain power that quickly. For some reason, Yururu-shishou covered my eyes and told me to sleep. It was in the outdoor winter though⊠but if I didnât sleep, she wouldnât teach me the middle grade move set of the swordsmanship, so I guess it couldnât be helped.ă
However, isnât a lap pillow something that the heroine gave to the protagonistâŠ? Was this some sort of hint as well? I thought the lap pillow was a major event from a heroine⊠or somethingâŠă
ă
I slept.ă
ă
And then, I collapsed again another day. Arthur gave me the lap pillow this time. Rather, she touched me too much. Does she think of me as a doll or something?ă
She even suppressed me using her index finger⊠I seriously couldnât move just by that⊠Moreover, she proceeded with conversation like nothing happened.ă
ă
Eh? You wanted to see my new skill? I guess I would scare her a little. She still suppressed me with a single finger, and she didnât look scared at all⊠I guess it really was ineffective against stronger opponents⊠I need to train more.ă
Arthur gave me a long explanation. It kind of pissed me off that the things she said made sense.ă
I looked up at Arthurâs face. She really had a beautiful face. I guess she was a typical example of a disappointing beauty? She was also the rival character of me, the protagonist though⊠but really, what a disappointing beauty she was.ă
ă
She had a well featured face that likely be mistaken for a heroine. She also got a good proportion. But I was sure she wasnât a heroine.ă
To think I had a lap pillow while being suppressed with a finger on my head⊠for some reason, the lap pillow event didnât seem to be a big of an event because of her⊠to think that a non-heroine could also give a protagonist a lap pillowâŠ
ă
I rested for a while. Even if I tried to raise my head, I was easily pushed back by that single finger.ă\nă
âOi.âă
âUhn, okay.â
ă
I guess she knew that it was enough and let me go. It would be bad as a protagonist to leave such humiliation as it was. To receive such humiliation of being suppressed by a single finger⊠donât look down on the protagonist!ă
I threw a wooden sword at her.ă
ă
âYou want to do it with me now?â ă
âShut up. Iâll break you now.â
âOkay, Iâll do it as much as you want.â
ă
I would beat her up⊠Damn it, Iâm going to mess her up. Donât think you can stay as my rival forever, Arthur!ă
The one who would shine in the end is me, the protagonist!!ă
