Chapter 73: Volume 11 - CH love better

Love letter rhapsody

Around two weeks have passed since the freshman Kisaragi Hayato had entered to the course of Martial Arts Department to become a Slayer of the Academy-City Ship Little Garden.

– You look like a little unsettled, did something happen?

Hayato instinctively talked to Emile Crossford, the classmate who lived in the same dormitory and that was walking next to him while shaking the hair tied at the back of her head.

The classes have ended, they were in the middle of returning from the school building to the dorm.

Emile was strangely nervous.

– I feel like I’m being stared by someone.

With a dissatisfying expression, Emile pouted her lips.

– Hmm, I don’t feel such sight though…

Hayato looked around.

They had just exited the school building of the Martial Arts Department.

Many figures of students of regular education curriculum and students of middle school could be seen, but he couldn’t find a person staring at them from that mass of people.

However, Emile affirmed, appearing to have confidence.

– No, I’m 100% sure that I’m being stared at! I’m sensitive to that kind of things.

– If so, then why have you become frightened like that? When I said something similar, you were the one who said『Don’t worry, it’s because the Slayers that fight against the Savages call the attention wherever they go』and 『Hayato has the highest aptitude value of the Hundred of all generations, so it’s natural to be noticed』, didn’t you?

– Yeah, I said so, but…

– Your aptitude value among the freshmen of this year is in second place and you’re also a Slayer who appeared once on the battlefield to defeat the Savages, so it shouldn’t be different for you, am I right?

Although Hayato and Emile were part of the freshmen, they were on the battlefield against the Savages already and gained military results.

Furthermore, anyone who belonged to the Martial Arts Department and longed for it, would become a member of the Selection Corps——the Selections that was commanded by Little Garden Student Council.

As Hayato said, they gathering the attention wasn’t strange.

– But, but, it’s not that kind of gaze. It’s persistent somehow, or how to say it, it’s like a fixed stare…

Emile grimaced, feeling disgusted, and continued her words.

– Besides, it’s not only now. There were times that I felt this same gaze when I was returning to the dorm with Hayato or when I was having lunch at the cafeteria during lunch breaks.

– I’ve never felt that kind of thing… ah, but it’s only when I’m with you!

– Could it be that it was a gaze of jealousy from a girl who fell in love with Hayato…?

Emile loosened her mouth and laughed as if making fun of him.

– No, that’s not true…

– But Hayato is popular, so there might be someone like that, no?

– Nonetheless, you’re crossdressing now…. And being jealous because you’re with me it’s too much…

– That, that may be.

Looking uninterested, Emilia pouted her lips.

(But I want to avoid weird misunderstandings…)

At any rate, Emile aka Emile Crossford who walked next to Hayato was no more than a temporary appearance. Her real name is Emilia Hermit.

The girl that was the childhood friend of Hayato.

Despite this, she came to Little Garden as “a man”.

– … I mean, there’s a possibility that they “have fallen in love” with you and not me. Even you have become very popular among girls.

After yesterday’s school, Emile was surrounded by female classmates who were asking for advices with the Hundred.

It was the same for Hayato, his popularity with girls was approximately the same.

But even then, Emile,

– Ahaha, that’s not true.

She followed with a laugh.

But in the next morning——.

An event similar to crushing the subjective impression of Emilia would occur.

– W-what is this…?

Emile arrived at her classroom, sat on her seat and gently inclined her head.

– Is there something wrong?

Hayato, who just settled down in the front seat, suddenly turned his neck and made a question.

– This was placed inside the desk.

Saying so, what Emile was sticking over was a pink paper that was beautifully folded in three.

– A letter?

– That’s what it looks like… ah, this…

Emile, who opened the letter while replying, was incessantly blinking, as if she couldn’t believe it.

– What is it? Is it perhaps a love letter?

– Err… that’s… what it is, I think…

Hayato received the letter that Emile was holding out as she showed a troubled-like expression on her face, then dropped his eyes.

It was a cute flower pattern design paper.

There were feminine, round characters written with a ball pen.

– Certainly, this is a lover letter huh…

Hayato said while reading the contents.

Then, a face appeared from their side.

– Yeah, this is a love letter. I’m absolutely sure about it!

– Uwaaah!?

Suddenly being surprised, Hayato sprung.

– Why are you here!?

The other party who was staring at the letter was a freshman like Hayato and Emile and their classmate of the same Martial Arts Department. A lively, small-bodied girl. She was Latia Saint-Émillion.

Behind her, there was also the figure of Fritz Grantz, a first-year representative of the dorm where Hayato lived and also a close friend of Hayato and Emile. He was meaningfully smiling and,

– We thought of coming to see what was happening since the two of you were being all lovey-dovey. Let me see that letter too, okay?

– Ah…

Fritz, who snatched the letter from Hayato’s hands, started reading aloud its contents.

– 『Today’s after school, at 16:00. Please come to the back of the high school’s building of the general education curriculum』, huh? As Latia says, this is without a doubt a love letter.

– I know right? This must be a confession of love!

With an excited look, Latia continued.

– There’s no name, but the other person is surely a girl of the general education curriculum!

– … why do you think so?

Hayato asked.

– You don’t get it? If she were a girl of the Martial Arts Department, they would confess at the back of the school building of the Martial Arts Department. There’s a gate in the school building of the Martial Arts Department that they can’t enter. Therefore, this means why they are summoning you to the back of the school building of the general education curriculum.

– Oh, now I see.

Certainly, the guess of Latia seemed to be correct.

Nonetheless, one doubt remained.

– If so, then how did they put the letter in the desk of Emile?

If they couldn’t pass the gate, then it was impossible to bring the letter in.

– Maybe they have friends in the Martial Arts Department and asked them to do so?

– Oh, there’s that too.

That convinced them.

– … so, what’re you going to do?

Fritz looked at Emile’s face and asked her.

Of course, it was about replying to the letter.

– Well, I’ll reject her.

As if it were very natural, Emile answered.

– That’s such a waste, don’t you think? Just by looking this rounded handwriting, she must be an incredibly beautiful girl――she may be younger, a middle school girl perhaps? A year younger, how nice no?

– What are you talking about? It doesn’t matter who they are, it doesn’t mean that because I’m getting a confession so sudden from an unknown person I can just go and accept it, right?

– That’s a very honest thing to say, considering it’s you.

Hayato muttered while being dumbfounded.

Although they reunited after a long time, he never expected that such words would come out from Emile who hugged him without warning the moment they met.

– In short, you’re saying that you want to start being friends, right? That sounds good.

Latia, who folded her arms and nodded, continued speaking as she nodded.

– But, in this world, there’s a saying that recites “love at first sight”, isn’t it? Though I don’t know that. Don’t you think so too, Fritz?

– Yeah, but why don’t you think about seeing that person for the time being? I want to see what kind of person she is.

– Yup, I think the same.

Latia and Fritz.

It seemed like they wanted to see the situation of the confession from the shadows by displaying their “Peeping Tom” nature.

– But the problem is that there’s something we have to do after school today…

Latia dropped her shoulders.

– Something you have to do?

– The schedule has a simulated battle in the arena with the senpais of the Martial Arts Department.

– So Hayato, please look at what kind of girl she is instead of us.

– Huuuuh…?

A confession of love was probably the biggest challenge in the world where you bet on yourself.

However, its failure was decided.

Because the real identity of Emile is Emilia, and she didn’t intend to accept it at all.

Because of that, he thought that looking at the confession was of very bad taste, and even though Hayato said he would decline completely, in the end, and after school, he finished deciding that he would come to the back of the school building of the general education curriculum with Emile.

It wasn’t like Fritz and Latia forced their way onto him to see that at any cost.

It was because Emile asked him to come with her.

– Because I don’t know what will be there.

Those were the words of Emile. What’s that “what”? What’s that “will be there”? Hayato didn’t know at all.

(If the situation was something like a guy confessing to her when she wasn’t crossdressing, then yes, but if the other person is a girl, then I don’t think there will be a dangerous situation…)

Hayato watched attentively at Emile who stood behind the school building of GEC high school from the shade of a nearby hedge.

The person who summoned her hadn’t arrived yet.

Emile was standing alone in that place.

Around five minutes have passed since then.

Two girls appeared there.

(… eh, two girls!?)

One of them was a girl who wore glasses and black ponytails and the other a girl with blonde hair that had freckles remaining around her nose.

Both were wearing middle school uniforms.

– E-excuse me…

The black-haired girl, who stopped her feet in front of Emile, started the conversation,

– Were you the ones who gave me this letter?

Emile anticipated it.

– … yes, I asked a friend I have in the Martial Arts Department to pass the letter.

The black-haired girl talked.

In other words, that girl fell in love with Emile, huh, it’s what Hayato thought,

– We have something that we want to ask Crossford-senpai by all means.

Then, the blonde girl said so.

– … we?

Emile tilted her head.

– Yes, we.

It was the girl with black hair that replied now.

Looking at them, Hayato wandered.

(What do they mean with “we”?)

He thought that they came because a person confessing by themselves was discouraging, but it seemed that it wasn’t the case.

(If so, then maybe both like Emile?)

But, wasn’t that a troublesome development?

When Hayato was thinking so.

– … so, what do you want to ask?

Despite her confusion, Emile asked.

Then, and by bravely approaching her body to Emile, the blonde girl said.

– Well, does senpai have someone he likes!?

Then the girl with black hair also brought her body near Emile like the first one did and asked.

– Do you have one!?

Overwhelmed by tension, Hayato gulped saliva loudly.

It may be due to his imagination, but he felt that Emile gave a fleeting glance to where he was.

– … yes, I have one.

Emilia answered with a smile.

– So, if you’re feeling troubled due to the confession, or if you can’t bring yourself to do so, then…

She replied as she had planned.

Because she had a person she loved, so she couldn’t go out with her.

If so, then she thought that it was inevitable for her to give up.

However, the response of the black-haired girl was beyond the imagination of Hayato and Emile.

– Umm, that’s not what we want.

– Eh, that’s not what you want? Isn’t this a confession?

– Yes.

The girl with black hair nodded.

– Then, why――

– Actually, the thing that we wanted to ask is if the person who Crossford-senpai likes is Kisaragi-senpai!!

– … huh?

Emilia was surprised.

At the same time, the heart of Hayato beat greatly.

(No way, did they get that she’s a girl?)

Emile also thought so.

But the situation was strange.

Both the blonde-haired girl and the black-haired girl combined their hands as their faces dyed deep red and gathered their voices.

Their voices entered into their world completely.

– No way, we finally asked him so!

– Nonetheless, are the senpais in a BL relationship? Please tell us!

– Bi eru?

– That’s right! BL! Boys love relationship, a relationship of love between men!

That was what supplemented the blonde girl.

(This is no good…)

Hayato was at his wit’s end.

He couldn’t understand what they were saying.

Emile was showing a confused look.

At this rate, more strange rumors will pop up, so he couldn’t leave it to Emile.

Because of that, Hayato decided to force his way through in between them.

– Excuse me, Emile is also troubled, so why don’t we stop here?

– Kisaragi-senpai…!

– Why are you here…!?

The eyes of the girls were directed to Hayato.

– … I’m sorry. I didn’t plan to look at you, but since Emile made me come along with her no matter what…

-That’s that, right? It’s LOVE!

– There’s no doubt, right? It’s LOVE!

– No, that’s not it…

– There’s nothing to feel embarrassed about, Kisaragi-senpai. You were worried because you like Crossford-senpai, you couldn’t bear it and followed him!

– It seems that you felt it a while ago, that it looked like we were thinking of confessing to Crossford-senpai and you got worried, but so worried, that it was unendurable!

– I’m telling you, it’s nothing like that…

Hayato ended up wincing due to the two that were drawing near as they kept watchful, glittering eyes on him.

What on earth was this situation?

– You don’t need to be embarrassed, Kisaragi-senpai.

– That’s right. Because we understand that kind of thing after all.

Saying so, the blonde-haired girl took out a copy of the sketch pad from the bag.

– Ever since we saw the senpais dating in Central, we absolutely thought that you were going out, so we’ve been unfolding these wild ideas——

– Ah, wait a minute, that’s…!

The bespectacled girl with black hair tried to stop her in a hurry, but the content of the sketch pad was exposed in front of the eyes of Hayato and Emile by the blonde girl.

– What is, this…?

When Hayato saw that, he lifted one of his cheeks.

That was because an illustration of Emile and Hayato was drawn there.

Besides, that part of the men was on the lower half body of Emile, and Hayato was grasping it tightly from behind.

– What you say? As you can see, this is a drawing where Crossford-senpai is having a quality time with Kisaragi-senpai.

The bespectacled black-haired girl made her cheeks flush and somehow, she was letting out obscene long breaths with *Haa, haa*.

– Aaa, no way, they’re watching me being like this… this is bad. I was very excited…. Even though I’m extremely embarrassed, why am I like this…*haa, haa*…

The blonde girl was in a similar situation. She relaxed her mouth so much that she would drool at any moment.

Far from nothing, honestly, they both looked very disgusting.

– Can I have a good look at it?

Emile said so and looked at it imperiously.

– Ah, yes! Go ahead!

Emile received the sketch pad from the blonde girl and turned her eyes to the illustration drawn there.

The cheeks of Emile who was fixedly looking at the illustration gradually started to blush.

– Uwaa, this is amazing…

Following the mutter, she turned over the page.

– Wow, the next pages have similar drawings. Uwaa, this one too… Look, Hayato. I think this is very exciting.

– Exciting? You…!

– The size of Hayato’s thing is around this one, right?

Saying so, Emile showed off the page.

There was a naked Hayato drawn there――.

– Hey, what are you talking about!? You shouldn’t know about such a thing!

Hayato inserted a tsukkomi while getting bright red,

– That was a nice tsukkomi, Kisaragi-senpai!

– As expected of the dominant part, don’t you agree?

– Yeah, there’s no mistake, Kisaragi-senpai is the dominant!

– Err, dominant…?

The blonde-haired girl and the bespectacled black-haired girl were even more aroused by those two.

– Hey, Hayato. I think that this must feel good, no?

Emile showed a loose smile on her face with *dehehee*, as she fixed her eyes on the illustration that appeared to be drawn by the black-haired girl.

– No, not at all.

Hayato said so as if he was amazed, then took away the sketch pad from the hands of the mixed-with-excitement Emile.

– Heey, what are you doing!?

– I’ll burn it.

– Eeeeh!

– No way!

The two girls gathered their voices in sorrow.

It was Emile who continued by raising a voice of criticism.

– That’s cruel, Hayato! Even though they expressly draw this for us!

The girls also continued.

– That’s right, it’s awful, Kisaragi-san!

– Very cruel!

– No, those who draw such pictures are cruel and even your delusions are very awful!

– To think that it was a confirmation as to whether we were truly dating or not…

After that, they heard from the two girls that they are beings called fujoshi* and that they wanted to check the true to get excited while they unfolded their delusions where Hayato and Emile were dating each other.

(This story, Fritz and Latia will laugh hard at us for sure…)

He was surprised that there were girls with such hobbies, and honestly, he thought that this was a nonsensical and discourteous conversation, but he didn’t feel that angry.

It was completely clear that it was Emile’s fault that they got to misunderstand so.

Because of that, on their way back to the dorm they separated.

Hayato decided to give a warning to Emile.

– There are ones who look like that to us, and there’s also the possibility that you being a woman will get revealed, so don’t cling too much to me from now on.

– Eh…

Emile showed a look that looked like she didn’t agree to it and pouted her lips.

However, she immediately showed a smile and approached her body to his.

– Hayato doesn’t want to flirt with me?

– I wasn’t saying that.

– If so, and when it’s just the two of us, how about cuddling and kidding more than before?

– Hey, we’re not in the dorm yet!

In a panic, Hayato took distance from Emile.

– Does that mean that we can make out when we arrive at the dorm?

– You’re truly that person who has a comeback for every remark, huh…

– Ehehe .

Hayato sighed deeply as he looked at the figure of Emilia who smiled without malice.

By the way, the sketch pad wasn’t disposed by fire.

The reason was that those two already had converted most of the illustrations to data.

Because of that, they sealed them so that they wouldn’t show the data or the sketch pad.

They decided to return it by promising that they wouldn’t draw anything related to Hayato and Emile.

– In the end, I’m glad that they didn’t find out that I’m a woman. For a moment, I thought that it was that kind of thing.

– Me too. That’s why we have to be careful from now on.

– Sir yes sir.

– No, you really don’t get it, huh?

That’s because Emile was shortening the distance again.

– It’s getting dark already, and there’s no people around, so aren’t we fine by now?

– Still… hey!

Emile was trying to take the arm of Hayato.

Hayato rapidly took distance and rejected her.

– Nooooo, just a bit more… okay?

The heart of Hayato beat very fast, feeling that the arm of Emile who reduced the distance touched his arm again.

(… good grief…)

Hayato looked at the face of Emilia who looked happily at his side.

I truly wonder what’s the deal with her, but when we do this, it makes me feel that I’ve recovered a little of the past when I was separated from Emilia.

That was a very happy thing——.

But, Hayato was anxious about what will happen from now on.

(How long will this last, until they find out she’s a woman?)

He felt that if it was at this rhythm, then they would be caught in no time.

At that time, what will happen?

Hayato sighed greatly in his mind, while walking towards the dorm with their arms still linked.
