Chapter 31: Ch 30 – 04 May, Challenge ‘temp’ GCC

 

"So, what are we going to do about this?" Inada asked in a serious tone as she watched those two people's conversations. 

"Hm… The most reasonable thing for Prez to do is to invite her to join." Kouta went ahead and replied.

"That’s…" For someone who’d initially been determined a second ago, Takao suddenly seemed quite unsure. She tilted her head to the side and gave Kouta a look that said, ‘So what are we going to do?’

Kouta wanted to say, ‘why are you asking me that’, but rather than do that, Kouta in the end gave his opinion.  "Well, what about we make a challenge with a wager?" 

After all, that is what Takao did in the anime; perhaps by using that, she can hide her feelings behind those challenges, and it may suit their personalities as well.

"That’s a good idea." Takao's finger was pointing at Kouta, as she really liked Kouta’s idea. 

"Oh… That sounds interesting." Inada grinned and responded in a rather happy and excited tone. 

"...but what challenge are we going to have?" She threw another question that had been in her mind. 

"Ah… that’s…" After thinking for a while, she quickly looked at Kouta with the same ‘help me, please’ on her face. 

Kouta couldn’t help but think about how she became dependent on him in such a short time. Well, it was not that bad, since he liked Takao after all. She may be the best girl in her anime and the most noticeable heroine who has feelings for the protagonist. 

"..." Kouta thought about the best challenge they had. Since in the anime, Takao challenges the ‘temp’ GCC near the time of the school festival, it was easy to make a challenge. But, this time… what challenge was good enough to have?

"Ah… Since we are GCC. How about playing a game?" 

"That’s true… that's something I'm thinking about too, but what kind of game will be good?" 

"What about our game, Floopy Bird?"

"Eh, but how do we make a challenge with that game?" 

"Well… it’s easy, you know…" Kouta explained the rule match he was thinking of. Inada and Takao's faces were brighter when they heard what Kouta explained, as they thought that was a good idea.

"Yeah… this is a good idea." Takao was excited as she stood up from her seat. Since she immediately stood up, the momentum made a miracle happen in front of Kouta. In his previous world, Kouta could be said to be an anime/manga lover, and he was familiar with the jiggle physics that only exists in anime and video games. And those memories only surfaced in less than 2 weeks, so even a lot of things happened. 

But this was maybe the first time in his life, he saw jiggle physics in real life. Takao stood up in excitement, and her breasts moved up and down in an exaggerated jiggle, as her uniform clothes were quite tight on her body. Kouta's eyes couldn't stop staring at it.

"Thank God." Kouta without realizing it clapped his both hands and prayed to god he previously never believed it.

While Takao was excited. Kouta was enjoying his time, and Inada looked at the two of them with an amused look and a smile on her face. That was the chaotic table in a rather calm family restaurant.

And they were to leave those families' restaurant shortly after. While Inada and Takao went to the station, Kouta walked along with them, even though he didn’t need to go to the station, but he felt like he needed to escort them as a boy.

Takao walked to the station while humming her favorite song in front of Kouta and Inada, who were walking at the same pace. The two of them walked side by side behind Takao. 

"Kouta-kun, thanks a lot." 

At that time, from out of nowhere, Inada thanked Kouta. 

"Eh… I don’t think I need to be thanked for…" Kouta was quite surprised by her sudden thanks.

"You know, I have been a member of the club since I entered this school. While Prez is a nice and kind senior, but sometimes she looked lonely at that time. I didn't know anything until I heard about what happened that made the club become the only Prez left alone. But I couldn’t do anything to help her. That’s why I’m happy when you talk about that." Inada spoke with a low voice as she didn’t want her words to be heard by Takao. 

"Well, I’m just thinking of the most efficient way to make this club survive." Kouta said while in his mind that he used this to make some affection point from Takao. He didn’t do this without trying to make his target fall to him, and with this he could make sure the protagonist didn’t have any way to enter in GCC's life. Since the reason protagonist became a club member because ‘temp’ GCC still needed one member to become a club. And if ‘temp’ GCC merged with this club, he didn’t need to worry about the protagonist again. 

"Is that so… but, to be honest. I never thought a cute boy like that could make such a man's face... That’s time you look cool, you know…" Inada said those words while she whispered in Kouta’s ear. 

"That’s…" Kouta never expected to hear that from Inada. She wasn’t someone he targeted after all, since she's just a side character. But when she did something like that, Kouta couldn't help but notice her.

Oh, well. He never thought he got some affection from another girl when he actually went to the main girl. But, why not… he was a scumbag after all. 

—------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[ Don’t forget to try to get close to Tomoya, okay? ]

[ Just die! ]

Once again, Kouta messaged Eriri after school was over. There was nothing different after he went back after spending time with GCC yesterday. He just worked on the manga, FS/N and other things as his new daily life. Also, he started to draw some design characters for their next game too. 

After the school was over, he immediately went to GCC and met with Inada and Takao, who were already there and prepared themself before going to ‘Temp’ GCC circle room.

"What are you doing?" Inada asked Kouta who just shrugged his shoulders after reading Eriri replied. 

"Ah… I’m just talking to an amusing person." Kouta answered her question. At this time, they were walking toward Temp’ GCC usual room. While Takao led in front of them, with such a determined face. 

Takao stopped in front of the room for a moment,  she took several breaths. Before she opened the door with such vigor and screamed while entering the room. 

"I will challenge this FAKE club!" Takao said while pointing her finger inside the room. 

Inside the room, there were four people, who were a usual member of ‘temp’ GCC. 

A small girl with shoulder-length blonde hair that was tied in a small pigtail, Shibasaki Roka. A tall girl with long purple hair named Karasuyama Chitose. A slender build with messy pink hair, a girl named Mizukami Sakura. The last was a teacher, Osawa Minami, who wore a jersey that slept on the table. 

Those girls who looked like they were playing some game looked at Takao for a moment, before Chitose with a smile on her face.

"A challenge? Okay then… We settled this right here, right now!!" She leapt toward Takao with some sort of dirt in her hand, followed by Minami who had a bottle of mineral in her hand. 

"Eh! Wait!" Takao screamed as she got attacked by Chitose. 

"Take this! Earth strike!!" Chitose attacked Takao with some dirt. 

"Wait… sand? Aww… My eyes!! Wait, no, not in the mouth." 

Minami then attacked Takao with water in a bottle.

"Take that! Water strike!" 

"What!! I’m drowning! I’m drowning." 

While Takao got attacked by those two, Kouta was surprised by how fast those two girls' movements were. In the anime and manga, those girls were much stronger than the protagonist. But Kouta never expected to be that fast, and he never expected they would do the same thing in the anime and manga since this happened a long time before it actually happened. 

This means that even if the time and place were different, some of this character's reactions would be the same as in the manga and anime.

"Er… are you alright?" Roka asked and gave her hand to help Takao, who became drenched from Chitose and Minami attack.

Maybe feeling hurt by the surprise attack and confused, Takao slapped her hand and, surprisingly, screamed. "Don’t act so friendly, you traitor!" 

Which made the atmosphere in the room become awkward, and if it kept up, it would have followed the anime and manga. So Kouta took his handkerchief and wiped Takao’s. hair.

"Wait, Prez. Please, calm down for a moment." Kouta said as he passed Takao to Inada and approached the "temp" GCC member.

"Can you please don’t tease our Prez?." Kouta told them, and they actually listened without attacking him. 

"Hm… You are?" Chitose asked while Roka looked at Takao with a worried expression on her face. 

"Me? I’m Suzuki Kouta from GCC. Just like our Prez said before… we wanted to challenge your club." Kouta replied.

"Challenge? What’s for?" 

"Yeah, accept our challenge… And if we win, our club will absorb this fake club of yours!!" Takao said this while hiding behind Kouta's back, afraid of being attacked by them again.

"That’s… What do we do?" Roka looked at Chitose, who was showing some sort of guilt in her face. She may already know it was some sort of her fault that Roka and Takao relationship became like this. 

One of the reasons GCC club membership decreased, because Chitose pissed off several members who have a strange relationship with Roka and decided to unleash her wrath on them.

"Well, this is your club, Roka. So you can do what you want to do?" Chitose told her friend like that. 

"If that’s the case, we accept your challenge." Roka said, "And I’m going to win" 

"I see… All right then…" Takao responded as the two of them stared at each other with some sort of hot atmosphere around them. It felt like there was fire around them. 

"No… No… Are you fine without knowing our challenge?" But Kouta couldn’t help saying that. 

""Ah…"" Those two said the same thing at the same time, and when they heard what Kouta said, those strange atmospheres vanished.

"So… what is the challenge?" Chitose asked.

"Since this is GCC after all… what about playing games. Since we have the same number of members. We fight one on one in three rounds of playing this game. Floopy bird!" Kouta explained it to them.

"Floopy bird?" All of ‘temp’ GCC members asked the same question since it was an unknown game for them.

"Yes, this is a new game made by us. This game is…" Kouta explained how the game worked and, of course, showed them how to play it with his phone.

"So the match would be fought one on one and the winner will be the last person alive between the participants. It’s easy, right?" 

"No… no… We never play that game. How can this be fair?" Chitose asked.

"Is fine… The challenge will be held Monday, so all of you can try and train for this game first. We only finished this game yesterday, after all. I know it’s unfair, but is there a reason why we are using this game?"

""Reason?"" Everyone who heard Kouta's explanation, including Takao and Inada, had the same question.

"Yes, since we’re using this moment too, we'll make sure the game is actually playable and ready to be launched!" Kouta said. "It’s a new game after all… we still don’t know if there is a bug and other thing too… That’s why, rather than playing a game that we already knew. Playing this unknown game was much better and at the same time we're doing some bug checking…" He continued.

"Kouta-kun! That's what you had been thinking!" Takao said this while grabbing his collar and shaking him violently.

"But… Prez… If this game comes good… we can get some money from advertising and get more funds for the next game we make…" Kouta said as honestly as he would. 

"This… money-grubber…" 

"Well, what do you think, Roka?" Chitose asked Roka. 

"I’m fine with it… since I like to play games made by Takao after all." Roka said. 

"Well, you heard it, Takao."

"Yeah… If that's the case we’ll meet again on Monday." 

With that, the match between GCC and ‘temp’ GCC has been arranged.
