āIt looks like youāre going to be okay for now.ā
After being rescued from a car accident.
Ryoma Ryuzaki breathed a sigh of relief and released his embrace.
He had been hugging Kururi Kurumizawa all this time to support her.
(I was being huggedā¦)
After his warmth disappeared, she finally realized that fact.
She had not been aware that they had been touching each other until now. She was surprised at that.
Kururi Kurumizawa was a rather cautious person.
Especially when dealing with the opposite gender, she is conscious of not getting too close to them.
Although her pink hair may be eccentric, her facial features are very well-defined. Therefore, in order not to cause unnecessary male-female trouble, she refrains from skinship⦠However, Ryoma Ryuzaki easily slipped past that caution.
Even though it was a spur-of-the-moment event, the distance between them was quite close in this instant. Kururi Kurumizawa can only remain dumbfounded in the face of him.
(Is this guy ⦠such a human being?)
The Ryoma Ryuzaki she saw at school and the man he is now are two different people.
The listless man stumbling down the corridor was gone.
Now, in front of her eyes was a young man full of vigor and good looks.
āTch ā¦, that car got away. They almost hit someone, what bad manners.ā
First, he looked around for the driver of the car, who had already disappeared.
However, when he realized that the other person was not there, he let his tongue slip.
He then turned his attention to Kururi Kurumizawa.
āYou have to be careful, too. If I hadnāt saved you, you might have died, you know?ā
In strong words, like he was lecturing her.
It was truly a āsermonā.
(Huh? Am I being scolded?)
Although they knew each other, it was almost the first time they had met and even talked.
And yet, this was the first time she had seen someone who could lecture her in a natural way.
Or, thinking back, it was the first time in her life that she had even been scoldedā¦
(She had never even been scolded by her fatherā¦)
For her, born as a genuine young lady, it was a very new experience.
āI-Iām sorryā¦?ā
She didnāt know how to react when she was scolded.
So she apologized for the time being, but Ryoma Ryuzaki did not forgive her.
āI donāt want you to apologize. Iām just asking you to be more careful in the future. ā¦I canāt always help you. Next time, you have to be able to take care of yourself.ā
However, his words are not a āself-satisfied lectureā that he just wants to feel good about mounting others.
Ryoma Ryuzaki is daring to speak harsh words, sincerely thinking of Kururi Kurumizawa.
She rolled her eyes when she realized this.
She was just amazed earlier.
(I canāt believe ⦠that people like this actually exist.)
Self-sacrificing acts of helping others without regard for themselves.
Unselfish love that asks for nothing in return for helping others.
A deep kindness that truly cares about the other person.
Kururi Kurumizawa could not help but thinkā¦
āLike a heroā¦ā
A hero.
Or a savior.
Or⦠it could be described as a āmain characterā.
Ryoma Ryuzakiās expression slightly intensified at these words.
But it was only for a moment, and after he blinked, his face was already back to its normal, fearless appearance.
āHero is a bit of an overstatement. Iām ⦠just an ordinary human being.ā
Hearing these words of humility, Kururi Kurumizawa squeezed her chest.
It was an unconscious act.
(This is not goodā¦, this is a bit of a no-no.)
She couldnāt hold back any longer.
The feelings that had been kept under wraps with astonishment are about to explode all at once.
Letās be honest.
Kururi Kurumizawa was⦠excited.
The fateful encounter, happening, and conversation⦠grabbed her heart.
ļ¼I love Nakayama.)
She couldnāt hold back her feelings any longer.
In just one moment,⦠just a few minutes, Kururi Kurumizawaās love for him had been eroded.
(I donāt understand anymoreā¦)
Kururi Kurumizawa was distressed by the mess that had been stirred up in her heart.
She, too, had been poisoned by the poison of theā¦Ā protagonist.
This is the characteristic of a genuine āprotagonistā.
Ryoma Ryuzaki is a womanizer.
As Shiho Shimotsuki said, there is no one better than him.
If youāre a normal girlā¦well, even if youāre a non-normal girl, heāll make you fall in love with him.
Until just the other day, it was rotten.
However, the main hero, who has been revived by the main heroine, has become a very troublesome existence.
He is a born hero.
He is a man who pushes forward on the path of harem.
Such a character has been revived⦠Of course, thereās no way the god of romantic comedies wouldnāt love himā¦
