Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e

Volume 15.5, Chapter 3: EVERYONE’S DAYS OFF, Part 4

On that same day, Amasawa was wandering around the ship alone with no particular destination in mind.

Sometimes her classmates would talk to her, but she’d just show them a friendly smile and leave it at that.

She’d not once done anything like go out in a group and play.

“I want to go see Ayanokouji-kun~.”

Stepping out onto the deck, Amasawa muttered in a voice that was lightly drowned out by the sound of the wind. For Amasawa, who has no interest in other students, the only time she feels blissful is when she is meeting Ayanokouji, the only person that can move her. However, because of his current position, he’s deliberately refraining from contacting her right now.

“Ahh~, I’m so bored I feel like I’m gonna die…”

“Good day, Amasawa Ichika-san.”

The one who approached Amasawa, who was alone on the deck looking out to the ocean, was 2nd year Class A student, Sakayanagi Arisu.

Not especially surprised, Amasawa only turned her gaze towards her.

“And who might you be?”

Amasawa tilted her head curiously as if she had never had never seen her before.

“I’m Sakayanagi Arisu from 2nd year Class A. Pleased to make your acquaintance.”

“Sakayanagi…senpai? Do you have business with me?”

“Fufu, no need for any monkey business. I hear you’re a White Room student, right Amasawa-san? Of course you know who I am as well, don’t you?

White Room student. When those words were heard, there was no choice but to understand.

“Fuu, I see. So it was the chairman’s daughter that Ayanokouji-senpai relied on. You seem to know a little bit about the White Room, so I suppose you could say it was inevitable. And so?”

Not surprised, Amasawa asked Sakayangi what she was after.

“It’s only natural that I’d want to see how good the White Room student he was so worried about is.”

“It’s okay that you’re so motivated to do this, but does that mean you have permission from Ayanokouji-senpai?”

“Permission? I have no need for such a thing. My being here is my own personal decision.”

“You’ve got an awful lot of self-confidence, haven’t you, Arisu-senpai?”

“I’m proud to say that I have at least that much ability.”

“So cool!”

Amasawa, while praising and applauding, seemed somewhat preoccupied.

“But I’m sorry. I’m feeling a little sentimental right now. Could we do this some other time?”

“I don’t mind. Today was only supposed to be a mere face-to-face meeting after all.”

Satisfied with just saying a quick hello, Sakayanagi bowed softly and turned to leave.

“Ah, and by the way, Arisu-senpai, could the surveillance you’ve had me under come to an end here?”

Sakayanagi found Amasawa after using several students from Class A to keep track of her location and waited until she was alone.

“I had instructed them to not let themselves be seen, but it seems you noticed.”

“Ahahaha, that was supposed to be hiding? That’s cute.”

“I apologize if my actions made you feel uncomfortable. But as you can see, I’m crippled, so it wouldn’t be easy for me to locate and go to see you otherwise. Please forgive me.”

“Ah, I have one question~. I’m the kind of girl who can hit a cripple without hesitation, is that okay?”

“Violence is one of the stronger cards available in the deck, but it is not always the strongest.”

Saying this, Sakayanagi lightly tapped her cane against the deck two and then three times.

As if it were a signal, her classmate Kamura appeared in the distance.

“She’s the upperclassman that’s been following me around, right? Is it possible that she can compete with me?”

“That is not the case. I just mean that uncivilized conduct can be easily detected.”

“So you want to have a battle of wits with me? You make me laugh.”

“You’re very short-sighted, aren’t you? Please don’t go drawing your own conclusions. After all, even if you are a White Room student, other than Ayanokouji-kun, you are all failures. I don’t have excessively high expectations.”

At this point, Amasawa’s gaze sharpened for the first time and she looked at Sakayanagi.

“I’ll give you a win or a loss in any setting, is what I mean.”

“Oh, really? Even if we were using violence like you were just talking about?”

For the first time, Amasawa became interested in Sakayanagi, and licked her thumb.

“Yes, of course. You can use any means you like.”

“I’ll make sure to remember you, senpai.”

“If it’s etched into your hippocampus, I’ll be glad to hear it. Then, have a good day.”

Sakayanagi slowly walked away, and Amasawa took a deep breath on the now empty deck.

“Even without Ayanokouji-senpai, I might be able to enjoy myself a little. Play around a bit with Kushida-senpai or enjoy watching Arisu-senpai’s crying face…? Under normal circumstances, I’d be in an excited mood…”

She put her hand lightly on her aching abdomen and thought about what was to come.

“…I’ll wait and see for now, I guess.”

It will take some more time before she's back in perfect condition.

Besides, Amasawa can’t make a move until she sees how that side fares.

Sakayanagi, on the other hand, left with Kamuro and returned to the corridor.

“That 1st year looks dangerous.”

“Oh, you can tell?”

“It’s just a feeling. I guess after being around you for so long, I’ve developed some kind of strange sense. Honestly, I don’t want to get involved any further.”

“Please cherish that feeling. That said, it would be better to continue surveilling her to some extent.”

She was warned not to monitor her, but Sakayanagi had no intention of listening to her.

Amasawa would not be able to ignore them if she knew that they were still marking her relentlessly.

If that happened, it wouldn’t be a surprise if she tried to provoke her.

“She noticed that I was following her, didn’t she? Will you use Hashimoto?”

“If it’s him, even if he were seen, he might be able to get through it, but…”

If they were not careful and come into contact with the White Room students, it’s possible it may become disadvantageous later on.

“For the time being, thank you for your hard work Masumi-san.”

With her role already over, Kamuro left the scene immediately.

After that, Sakayanagi took out her mobile phone to make a single call.

“Could you continue for me please?”

She asked the person on the other side to continue monitoring Amasawa, and then added one last thing.

“As I thought, it seems that you are the only one I can rely on in class, Yamamura-san.”
