ââIâll kill you!â\n
For a moment, I couldnât understand what had just happened.\n
Even the fact that a man suddenly came on stage in the middle of a live performance was astonishing, but on top of that, the man took out a knife from his bag and held it up to Nekoto-chan and the others.\n
This was an inexcusable outrage.\n
âKazehaya-kun, is this an event? Is it part of the show?\n
While everyone was panicking, the class rep asked me if this was an event, a situation that would normally be impossible.\n
It might be possible that itâs a fake performance, but the reaction of Nekoto-chan and the people involved, including the security guards, suggests that itâs not.\n
Above all, Iâve never seen anything like this happen at a Nekoto-chanâs live concert before.\n
âI donât think itâs an eventâŠâŠâ\n
âWhaâŠWhat do we do? Nekoto-chan and others are in danger !?â\n
âThereâs nothing for us to do, weâll just leave it to the security guards!â\n
The Class-rep was in a panic, and Minato, who was also panicking, shouted at her.\n
ă\n
As Minato said, this is a situation that should be left to the security guards.\n
This is one of their jobs, and an outsider who doesnât know the layout of the site or whatâs going on inside might get in their way.\n
âI could see from a distance that the guards were too confused to move, as this was the first time they had ever been in a situation like this.\n
So I decide to act.\n
âHey, Kazehaya-kun! What are you doing?ăDonât tell meâ!â\n
â Class-rep, stay with Minato and Shota!â\n
As I was forcing my way through the people in front of me towards the stage, thinking that Iâm going to do something, Class-rep tried to follow me, and I gave her an order in a harsh tone.\n
She looked frightened for a moment, but then glared at me and tried to follow me again \n
But Minato pulled on the Class-repâs arm to stop her.\n
When I saw that, I figured the Class-rep would be fine and hurried over to Nekoto-chan and the others.\n

<<Saotome-sanâs POV>>\n
âWhat do you think youâre doing! You cannot do this!â\n
ăA man suddenly came up on stage and pointed a knife at us â no, at Clara-chan, and I panicked and raised my voice.\n
Iâve never seen anyone like this before.\n
I remember the faces of all the fans who come to the handshake event, so at least itâs not my fan.\n
He seems to be here for Clara-chan, so maybe heâs a fan of Clara-chanâs.\n
âShut up!ăYou have nothing to do with this! Iâm here for Clara!â\n
As I thought, heâs after Clara-chan.ă\n
When I glanced at Clara-chan, she looked very pale.ă\n
Itâs a natural reaction to have when a knife is pointed at you.\n
To be honest, I was scared too.\n
But Clara-chan is the youngest of the group, so I should protect her.\n
Thatâs what I decided, and I started talking to the man while hiding Clara-chan behind my back.\n
âDoing this wonât benefit you in any way at all! If you want to talk about something, please come to the handshake session! Then you can talk to Clara-chan!â \n
Itâs only a short time, but the handshake event allows fans and idols to talk.\n
I used to look forward to every handshake session where I could talk to Kazehaya-kun for only a minute or so.\n
If this guy hadnât done such a stupid thing, he could have talked to Clara-chan at least a little bit, but what in the world drove him to do this?\n
â Iâm fine with this! Iâll kill her and then Iâll also die! Everything will be over then!â\n
âWhy are you trying to do such a terrible thing? What did Clara-chan do to you for you to do this?â\n
I desperately called out to the man.\n
I wanted the man to be taken down as soon as possible, but for some reason, no one would stop him.\n
I stared at the manâs face, wondering in my mind what the security guard was doing.\n
Then the man said something I couldnât believe.\n
â What did she do to me you ask? Try asking Clara about that! She made me give her tributes as her lover until she became successful, and then she simply dumped me once she became very popular!â\n
âWhat..? Is that true, Clara-chanâŠ..?â\n
I was upset by the manâs words and turned my gaze to Clara-chan.\n
Romance is forbidden for idols.\n
Even though she is the youngest, itâs not like Clara-chan doesnât know the rules.\n
So thereâs a good chance that the guy is just making assumptions.\n
But I knew he wasnât lying because he had gone this far.\n
Even if it was just an assumption that he was her boyfriend, the fact that he was giving her tributes meant that Clara-chan was probably getting some things or money from him.\n
Normally I should believe the girl from the same group.\n
However, knowing what kind of girl Clara-chan was, I had a feeling that what the guy was saying was true.\n
ă\n
And that hunch would soon come true.\n
âYou just paid for it yourself! Whatâs wrong with taking whatâs given to me! Besides, we were not dating!â\n
Just like I thoughtâŠâŠ.\n
Claraâs judgment of right and wrong is not always clear.\n
Itâs fine if youâre getting gifts from fans through your office, but if youâre getting them personally, thatâs a problem.\n
And Iâm sure it wasnât a small gift that she had received.\n
And Clara-chanâs words provoked that man.\n
The manâs face changed and his hand tightened around the knife as if he was about to lunge at me.\n
My feet shook as he looked like he was about to lunge at me.\n
â We were not dating!? And yet you made me buy all those things! Iâm going to kill you, you bitch!â\n
The man finally lunged while shouting that.\n
ă\n
But my body canât move as my legs are stuck.\n
I have to protect her at least â I closed my eyes tightly as I held Clara-chanâs body behind my back with my hands.\n
I was ready for the pain to run through my body.\n
But then a familiar voice reached my ears.\n
âNo matter what the reason is, thereâs no way you can kill a person.â\n
âUgh!â\n
At the same time as the familiar voice, I heard the groaning voice of the man who was holding the knife.\n
I fearfully opened my eyes and saw a familiar boy standing over me as if he was protecting me.\n
As soon as my mind realized who the boy was, I felt a great sense of relief.\n
âSo much so that I couldnât help but call out the boyâs name.\n
âKazehaya-kun âŠâŠ!â\n\n
<hr class="wp-block-separator is-style-wide">\nTN: ooh, superhero entry⊠For a moment I thought she would call his name before he came. Alas, this is how it went. Well, this is not bad either.\n
